Ata meeting of the Proprietors of the in- 
tended Literary Institution at Reading, held 
a few days since, at the Town Hall, it was 
unanimously resolved, that 2 proper situation 
for a Library and Reading-room should be 
procured, and other necessary arrangements | 
made for its establishment, as soon as possible, 
and a committee far that purpose was ap- 
pointed. A considerable addition has recent- 
}y beer. made to the subscription, which now 
amounts to upwards of one hundred shares, 
at 301. each. 
In addition to the improvements which 
have lately taken place at Newbury, it is in 
contemplation to make a new approach to the 
market from Bartholomew street, alittheabove 
the church, of sufficient width to admit three

SOMERSETSHIRE. 
Ih excavating the new canal, near the Red- 
Berkshire—Somersetshine. 
[Nov. t r 
cliffhouse, Bristol, the workmen have discos 
vered a great numberof oak trees, about 
fifteen feet below the surface of the earth. 
Some of them are as muca asthree feet in 
diameter ; on being exposed to the atmosphrre, 
the outside peels off, and moulders away, but 
the heart is so firm and sound, that several 
ofthe pieces have been manufaetured into 
spokes and tables, which, in appearance, are 
not unlike faint coloured mahogany. 
Lately was held, in the Exhibition Yard 
of the Bath and West of England Soeiety, 
for the Encouragement of Agriculture, Arts, 
Manufactures, and Commerce, the first 
public mart of that society, for the sale 
of improved British Clothing Wool. A 
very considerable quantity of such wool 
was sent from various parts of the West 
of England, some of which was sold at fair 
prices; and though, on account of the stag- 
nation of trade, occasioned by the peculiar 
juncture of public affairs, a part was left un- 
sold under the care of the secretary, it is 
highly probable this mart, whether to be an- 
nual or otherwise, as shall be determined, 
will increase in its importance.
