The Ship Rcsolutc,


The bringing into port (New London)
few days since, the British ship RcsolGte
which was abandoned about two years ago
in the Arctic Ice, has excited much interest.
The deserted ship was discovered by tie crew
of the ship George Henry, Capt Budding

the ice and brought to port. The New Lon

Capt. B.
She was, when abandoned by those on

that it is impossible to continue operations

But their is much fear here in regard to the

Cruel, The food of the l4horers was coarse
and deicien>s their clothing was incumplr-
ably more 50, and their lodgings were rude
and uncomfortable, The houses. even of the
wealthy, were mostly destitute Of glass win
dows and chimneys. The doors Of the peas

accumulated filth OF many years The lux
ury Of linen WAS confined to the rich auI
high born Their woolen cloth was ull do
mestic manufacture. Tea and coI.e, and TO
great extent, sugar was unknown, Beer
was the universal beverage. The higher
classes lived chiefly on sdlted meats The
common people seldom ate meati Il any form.

In earlier ages, the people fed entirely on
bread and meat. As late as 1850, out Of u
population Of six millions in England and

persons are consumers Of wheat. The use
Of the potatoe, Us the principle article OF
