JANUART 2.—There was a fait took plass en the river
Meese; there were regular asamptees and bii•ths erected
—the former affording entertainment, and the letter
decked oat with the most festinating asticies of Datck
attraction. There were tee ice boats, decorated with
fancy streamers; the proprietors of which fared well
by letting them out by the course, which they perform
with the velocity of a maws*. Carts and carriaers
continue to cross the atlases in vatious direc-
tions. There is no prospect of a change of weather ;
the frost continues with the greatest severity. The
labouring people are literally starving for the wait of
employ, the canals being all blocked up. Liberal sub-
scriptions have jest been entered into for their relief.
PsTSiont:RO, Dec. 17.—Oar winter, notwithstanding
some deceiving presages. and the season being eire.oly
far advanced. has not yet set in. The wind front the
sea. blywins almost always from the North or the Wear,
brings with it a damp temperature, as hurtfal to this
health as it into the progress of the commerce of the in-
terior, which only waits for the snow and ice to resume
its activity. The delay in this roped, which is harm-
less in the south of Earope, is a real grievance its
northern countries, which cannot do without this means
of communication.
In the evening of Wednesday se'nnight, as Mr. Luke
Nicholson, of the East Pen, youngest son of the late
Mr. Nicholson, of Leverton, was skaitiog up the river
Witham, with an intention of visiting his friends at
Lincoln, he, from some most lamentable circumstance,
was suddenly plunged into the water; and, being at-
tended by only one companion, a near relation, who
wis on the very distressing occasion, unable, to render
any effectual assistnnce, he was unfortunately drowned.
A. foolish young man, an inmate of a garret in tho
West Port, had the temerity, on Wednesday afternoon.
while in a state r.f intoxication, to venture out on the
roofond not only walked coolly along the ridge, but
actually performed a pat seal on it, with es little fear
as a professional rope-dancer, to the astonishment
and horror of all the passers by, who seemed in expecta-
tion every instant of seeing him laid prostrate at their
feet; and it was extremely gratify icg to entry ono
when he re-entered his garret window in safety.—
