248 Trade of London Derry. 



I was so much pleased and occupied with the 

 noble establishments at Derry, that I did not 

 advert to its trade. It has a great export of 

 linen, butter, and grain, to Liverpool,, with 

 some American and Baltic commerce. The 

 importation of coals from Liverpool and Cum- 

 berland exceeds fourteen thousand tons per an- 

 num, and is yearly increasing : the price of the 

 former is thirty-six shillings, that of the latter 

 twenty-eight shillings, per ton. Peat costs 

 about five shillings a ton. A small family con- 

 sumes one hundred and thirty kishes, equal to 

 about twenty-five tons ; which, when brought 

 from any distance, is dearer than coals. 



It will require some effort to quit a place 

 possessing such powerful attractions but pro- 

 ceed we must to-morrow great as may be the 

 inducements to remain ; these can never be 

 effaced from my memory, or the pleasing recol- 

 lections of Faun, either as to place or persons. 

 Adieu.
