ragement to sell cheap, instead of sending to London for the greatest part of what they consume, and for which they often pay dearer, exclusive of the carriage, commodities of all kinds would be much more reasonable ; but where a tradesman returns his money only once or twice in a year, he is under the necessity of putting on a larger profit than he would, were his returns quicker.
FAIRS.
Here are three Fairs in the year ; one on Whit-Tuesday ; the second on the 26th and 27th of July, called Rock Fair ; and the third on the 23d of November : but Rock Fair is the only one worth notice, and that has fallen off considerably within the last twenty years : it is for pedlars' goods.
THE POST
From London comes in every morning about nine o'clock, Mondays excepted; and goes out every afternoon at five, Saturdays excepted.
