DERBYSHIRE. 
The effets of the refufal of the bank to pay 
.their notes in fpecie, are feverely felt in Derby, 
Nottingham, Leicefter, and the furrounding 
Though gold and filver 
have not abruptly difappeared, yet they are evi- 
dently becoming more fcarce every day. In 
Derby, very few hands have yet’ been difmiffed 
from their employment, and not many put upon 
half work. In Leiceftex, the fagnation of trade _ 
‘is very confiderable: many frames are entirely 
ftopped, and others but partially emploved. 
Nottingham feems to have been ftill more ime 
médiately and confiderably affeéted: the ftop- 
page of the bank was immediately followed by , 
the ftoppage of a great number of frames; and 
although the local banks have endeavoured to 
remedy the fatal fcarcity of circulating medium, 
by iffuing a great number of feven-fhilling notes, 
&c, it_has been abfolutely neceflary to throw 
out of employment agreat number of work~
