If the increafed tonnage of the fthips, and 
the increafed number of men employéd in 
them, be confidered ; the refult, as to the to- 
tal increafe and decreafe, refpectively, of the 
Britith and foreign fhips would be found ftill 
more confiderable—in 1801 the amount of the 
tonnage was:z2,696—do. for 18c2, 25,527. 
A fimilar progreflive increafe of Britith 
fhips, and a decreafe of foreign ones, has. 
been likewife obdfervable, of late years, 
in the capital porte of Briftol, Hull, and 
Glafgow. 
A more expeditious and lefs expenfive mode 
of cleanfing public roads and highways, than 
the one ufually made ufe of, has been lately: 
difcovered by a perfon in the neighbourhood 
of Lancafter. It is performed by the fimple 
operation of working a roller backwards and 
forwards, acrofs the road. A wooden or caft- 
iron roller, two yards long, and two feet im 
diameter, by the labour of only two or three 
men, will cieanfe a greater length of road, 
during rainy weather, than twenty {tout men 
could perform in the ufual way, and in the 
fame {pace of time. A fcraper is placed fo as 
tu take off any mire which might adhere to 
the roller. 
The increafe of population at the town of 
Prefton has been aftonifhingly great of late 
Ay and the buildings beth public and pri- 
vate evince the progrefiive enlargement of 
commerce there, which a capital of 200,000}. 
would be very inadequate to maintain. The 
manufactures of the town are unaflifted by 
peculiar ftreams of water. It is chiefly 
indebted for thefe advantages, to the affidu- 
ous emertions of J. Horrocks, efq. their pre- 
fent reprefentative in parliament, as likewife 
to fome other gentlemen and merchants of 
the town and neighbourhood, ftimulated by> 
his fuccefs.
