review OF the prefent month, as the .crnor and
deadneis of amor every fpecies of trade and

IN our great manufacturing towns, that at Man
chefter fon,e comfortable houfrs have been com
PEELED tn tutrend their payments, and this has
been followed by the failure of many Others in
the metrorolis. All cotton goods are greatly
depreiied in price, and are expected to go vet
| lower.
Owing to the unexpected movements of the
| enemes iieets, and the vet uncertain deftina,io

cean as traverfed in almoh every direction by
our merchantmen. it is alike fortunate and ex-
traord'nary that not more of them have fallen
INTO the hands of the French fquadrons, either
IN the w. Indies, or in their pafage to & from
thenceto Europe. The premium, of infurance
at Llovd's has varied in the courfe of this month.
from five to twenty-five guineas on the fame
