From the continued mildness of the Spring. the young Wheats have become unusually luxuriant in their growth. In most of the districts where large flock. of sheep are kept, they are generally feeding down, and 1,0 doubt it will prove with profitable effect. The early sown Barleys which were chilled by so long a succession of rains, have recovered their colour within the last ten days, and throughout Norfolk and Suffolk wear a promising appearance. The forwrrd plants.of Beans and Pease are free growing in Kent and Sussex, but are more foul with summer weed* than is usually known in those counties; hot in the former their drill husbandry will ena ble them soon to clean them. Oat sewing has' be- n much retarded on strong land by the wetness of the season% but on tender soils they appear to plant well. Ray-Grass, Clover, and Winter Tares, pro mise every where ablindant crops. The general tillage, havvever, is on the decline, which is too visibly manifested throughout most dis tricts, by the neglected state of the lands intended for fallow; this unfortunately arises either from an inability, or a want of spirit, in the tenantry. to give. under the pressure of the tinies, that due cul tivation to the soil, by a li!seral expenditure thereon,.withont which it must infallibly deteriorate, to great national loss. The Grazing counties scarcely.ever experienced so much teed at so early a sea son. In the Vale of Aylesbury, and most of the rich marshes on the banks of the Thames, mole beasts have been laid out 'already than Is generally known in The middle of May. The Hay markets are fully supplied, and with but little variation in prieo. Lean stock of most kinds has fallen considerably, particularly Welch and Seoteb cattle Smithfield has been. largely supplied through the mouth with prune beef, mutton, 81141 pig pork, at reduced prices of more than :s. a stone, but veal and lamb are not cheaper. Tile Wool market is dull, and in all sorts somewhat lower than that of the last month.

I saw tke dough after she mixeed it up, and I firmly believe the deleterious ingredients were then mixed its it, from its appearance being flat, black, and heavy. Margaret Turner, wife of Mr. Oliver Turner, stated, that on fief Arriving at the house in Chancery lane, and meeting the prisoner, the latter said, in answer to an observation of the witness, that was not the dumpling that had caused the sickness, big the milk, of which sauce bad been made, and which was brpught by the iatlier maid. Mr. Robert Gregson Turner corroborated his fatherN evidence, with the addition that he was wur , e than any of them from eating the dumpling, and had not tasted any of the sauce. Sarah Pearse, the twine-maid, said .he lived'eleven months in Mr. TA family ; she recollects to hear the prisoner say, after her tans, tress gave ligr warning. that she should never like them any rimre, Witness by desire bf the prisoner. brought her a halfpenny's worth of milk to make the sauce, as she said she had not enough. William Thistleton, the ‘ officer who apprehended the prissuier o searched her person and box, but found nothing of a suspicious na ture; she told him in the office that she believed it to be in the yeast, as she perceived a white settlement at the bottom, or that the other girl, who was very sly and artful, might put it in the mills, She was committed, for trial. UNION HALL. Margaret Ryan, a milk carrier in the emploc of Mr. Strafford, of Stony -street, Borough-market, was on Thursday brought up by Collin_ bourn rind Clark, eh:l4;er! with attempting to destroy hrr infant female child, of which she delivered herself secretly on Wednesday morning, It appeared that the prisueer had been repeatedly accused .of being pregnant by her mistress and 'others, but always denied it. About seven o'clock on Wednesday morning, however, she was observed to go to the privy, and remain there for some time. About half an hour afterwards her mistress, going to the pump, was alarmed by the cries of an infant. She instantly called her husband and suer, and on investiga tion, it was found the cries canto from the privy. The boy was let down by his father with a rope, and on the surface of the soil, ten feet from the floor, found a bundle ling, from which the cries cane. On examining the bundle, it proved to be one of the prisoner's blue aprons, and its contents a fine new-born female infant, still alive, but not likely to survive, owing to the injury it had sustained from t.e cold, bumf dity, and stench of the soil. It had apparently received same severe bruises, either in the fall aecitherwise. The Infant is taken care nt, and the mother is committed for re-examivatiou, its tate shall have been agertained.
