AU:aCULTURE. MONTHLY REPORT FOR NOVEMnER. Acenunts, of the date of last week, Fr port cot a even then abroad, in various pails of the conatiy. Spritis wheat has Bern pa; tietelaily backward. Much wheat anti barley which, in order to take the utnu.st advantage of the intet vals of fair weather, was carried prematurely. has fermented iu the stack, and bet 0 retained to the field at great In Sour and earner, in order to be suilieiently dried. A vast quantity tricorn has speared in the livid and in the stack. The potatne crop is va riously reported, but may probably Ire reckoned one of the hest of the present season; turnips and grass decidedly so. Wheat-selling necessarily back Ward, on the fillows particu larly so t the operation by no mean: well performed in ge Feral; the seed difficult to lie prociii ell gond, and at an erim - goons price ; the sowing a extensive tracks must be di ferret( until spring. The price of all kinds of live stock, with some esception la favour of sheep, remains in a depressed state. The difference between the market price of old and new wheat, and a rise of some shillings per (warier at the Corn Exchange. on openinz the ports to a foreign supply, milord a gat isfaemry explanation of the opinion of the dealers. Weigh ing the earliest aid best-harvested wheats against the latest Anil most defective, and taking into the account the unques tionable defect of timidity in all, it is perhaps not nn exagge ration to rate the present crop, with respect to public eon simiptimi, dewily oae half an abundant one ; nor are the pre rs nt high prices in any degree reimmerative to the generality of farmers, a body of men iinder the most pressing circuit'. 'braces, and fully deserving the utmost consideration from their landlords and the public. We are sorry to announce, that the health of Sir Jo- Oph Banks is in so very precarious a state, that his friends are apprehensive of his speedy dissolution. Sir John Hayford Thorold, Bart. of Lincolnshire, Vs reduced his rents 20 per cent. where the letting was War to Latly z day last, and not under a lease.—The arquess of Exeter has also reduced the rents of his farms 17} per cent.

The yanls were manned, and the crews in excellent order, pefurmed, be sides the naval management of the ship, the military •exercise as a battalion, which was executed with the greatest accuracy. The improved system of manage ment being for the crew of the ship to act also •in the capacity of our marines.

We regret relearn, that Nottingham is still subject to the I.4wless outrages end exactions of the Luddites. The u&- lectors of the Bin.* Cousel:lre continue to key their contri butions, while the King's taxes and parochial rates remain unpaid. A Collector of the Poor's rate et Nottingham, in lately going his round, was, it answered by several housekeepers—" We are suable to settle with you : the other Cellectors have just been here; and you know we must pay them." When his renlowntating with them, the reply was—" Do you wish use to have my frames broken, or my brains blown out." A young Spaniard, and a married female of the same na- ' time, funned an illicit attachment lately-et Rourdeaux. The husband, discovering it, took steps to break of the connex ion ; in rouse:pence, the guilty parties agreed on their mu ; tual destruction, and they were both found dead, lying on a bed undressed, with their heads shattered to pieces by pis. • tol shots. A shocking occurrence took place on Thursday, at Melton House of In•ltistrv, Sotrolk : a pauper, who hail been con fined a considerable time as a lunatic, was, from appearances, recovering of kis malady, ant! the usual restraint in conse quence abated ; but melancholy to relate, sonic after he flit himself at hberty, he seised a knife, and plunged it into the breasts of three other invalids, one of whom immediately ex pired. Tier other two lie in a dangerous state. Molise& OW ei/LONEL NILVIMAN.—On Tiscsday and Wed nesday, the lath and 2001 instant, D. Turkey, Esq. coroner for this county, with the assistance of the Rev. J. Lombard, the Rev. J. Chester, Esq. and Iticl;d. Tooker, magistrate .f the neighbourhood of Mallow, was engaged in the investigatiou of this horrid transaction. The result has been the discovery of the whole• pion and neemnplishnient of the robbery and murder, with ere pprelimisibu of the entire party concerned. Three men and one worAan have been fully committed for trial, ah of whom (excepk one of the men) were in Colonel New inau's own employmeut. It appeared that the h orse had been entered from the lobby window looking into the yard, by the help of a ladder, the sash and glass of which were found broken in pieces; but, as is supposed, were so broken by design on the party's entering, to give a colour to the first story circulated by the ser vants that the house had been broken into by strangers. On entering the house, the party went im mediately to the Colonel's room, the door of which was not lucked, and strangled him with their hands as he lay in beg. He was found in the morning with' evident marks of violence. his throat being blackened, and having mark* ofserntelics, as if imprinted by the nails of their hands in the straggle, and his shirt was a little bloody from the effect of the scratches. The property taken consisted of a few bank notes in a small leather hote case, the colonel,. geld watch amid seals, his pis- tols, arid the clothes he were the day before. The manner in which New berry-hoase WAS thronged during the investigation, fully marked the abhorrence of the crime frit by the whole neighbourhood, as well as the great Internal taken in the me, lancholy fate of this respected gentleman. The colonel com manded the sth dragoons in the campaign in Flanders, and was a man of a most intrepid character, and of amiable and hroffensive -manners. He was in his 'l3d year.— Cork paper. Prrta'atitenctt, Manciterran.—Sunday morning, during divine service, the beadle discovered the church to be unu sually fall of smoke, examined the stove, and found, that owing to ate aperture in the thee maderneath the west aisle, the fire had forced its way to the flier: little slaagev was appro. hended till the sermon was nearly over, when the congrega tion took the alarm. The churchwardens, who had in the mean time got assistance, came, load, with the cushions damped, stopped the fire, which was issuing from the flue, and in a few minutes the fire was got under, but not without much damage to the church. Resoetrrr: Dertsce.—Mr. Kcarley, formerly of South Sea Common, put up his horse at the public-lonise at Four post, near Southampton, and, i.etendtng to pass the night theft, at an early hour he retired to bed. In the course of the evenin g four mesa entered the tap-room, and sat there drinking until a late hour, when they dropped some expres. 60119 which couvineed the landlady and her female servant they intended to rob the Mouse ; the latter accordingly Mune• diately proceeded to Mr. Kearley's room, and told him the danger that was likely to ensue, and at the Caine time gage him her master's short constable's staff, wuich happened to be in the hone.. .41r. Kearley hastily put on sonic of his clothes, and went'dovia stairs, at the bottom of which he was stopped by the four men, Site foremost of whom was armed with a very long ludic, with which he threatened to resist with violence. Mr. K. instantly sprang over the rails of the stalts,sad, by s most violent blow with the staff, broke the arm in which the knife was held t then, as iustautaneously, knoriaed nnuther of theist down, which the other two per. criviug, ran away, leaving their wounded companions to be seenred and delivered over to the Civil Power.
