My DEAR Bennett


have just arrived in the Britannia We sailed
5th Nov 8 P. M; arrived at Halifax on the Goth,
at IL, noon left at 4 o'clock, p M and arrived at
Boston on the ed. We have 81 passengers from
England, and 8 from Halifax. We have had long
and rough passage. The Britannia has sustained
her reputation noby, and Capt. Hewett, her COM
mander, has we'll deserved and has received the
thanks OF his passengers, who have vated him a
piece Of plste in testimony Of their satisfaction for
his vigllant and able discharge Of his duties
Trade is very prosperous in England. The home
trade has greatly increased. The demand for
goods for China has been and continues to be very
great. The iron trade is also prosperous, and the
spinners are making more money now than they
ever have made before, notwithstanding the low
price of twist The export demand for cotton twist
Agitation in Ireland is on the decline. Money is
plenty in England at 8 per cent. The great facility
of getting money has induced all kinds OF Wild
speculation. All kinds Of railroads are IN contem-
plation in England aad Ireland. There is quite
mania on the subject in England and France. Ev-
cry body is gambling in railroad shares, and there
will be great loss in wild speculation, unless the
Bank of England interferes which, 1t is generally
believed, she will, and which she can now do with
more facility than ever.


The British government are extending their forti-
fcationsat Halifax They have six forts besides the
Citadel IN that harbor yet they continue their la
bors. Several engineers have recently been sent
out from England to complete the extensive line Of
Notifications at Halifax.
