THE N'ATIONAT, RF,CISTER. for the report, as a mail ariiyed yesterday. The middle North wad is impassable as near as ilighgate-hill. Last Fiiday week the mail was dispatched ft om Falmouth at three o'clock in the morning, when, after travelling with niucti difficulty through the snow, they were not able to reach the second stage before ten o'clock, though only twenty-four miles. where the guard proceeded with the mail on horseback, accompanied by a guide; bur, after many hours fi uitle-s attempts, they wete obliged to return, and the snow continuing to fall, the country was so covered; there wag no possibility of proceeding till the tinday morn ing, and then it was on'y effected by the guard and assist ants car' ying the ba..;s on foot over the fiozen snow, at great risk of 1) , Mg oveiwhtlined in the drifts, which at that time continued t fall.

The !nag bitticle of the iloed will depend on .ht state of the weather at that time. Should the thaw be sudden. and accom panied with much rain, a tremendous inundation may be expected, as the whole will precipitate itself into the rivers.
