The Report of the Agricultural Committee, may. according to the intimation of Mr. lionco, the Chair man, be expected this week, and, he its recommenda tions what they may, the results it will present cannot fail to he highly interesting to the pithlic at large.— The agricultural interests are notorionsly in the most distressed condition, and some substantial relief must be promptly afforded them, not only for the sakesd the parties imnseiliately involved, but for the general welfare of the community ; for . so intimately inter woven with each other ore the various classes of so ciety. especially at the present period, that if onerlasie suffers, all the other classes suffer with it. — While the circumstanres of the . farmers are re :lured. the number of their labourers mist be diminished, and the trades connected with •their occupations, and their families, who compose 2 large proportion of the population of the king dom, must experience a more limited demand. From the lowest to the highest the suffering will be felt, tor the land-owner ran no longer receive the resat which the occupier is unable to pay. The fact appears to be, already, that large districts in wise Farts of the cone try are thrown upon the landlords' !sande ; and the ques t' 'MIPS to he whether rents are to be so reduced as to snake the farmer easy in his situation, or that the depression whirls he at present suffers shall be removed by other means. This of course is the important ques tion which as so miteli divided the Agricultural Com mittee, composed as it is of pasties under different loan cures. arising fro ti their landed property, their interests in commerce, or their connection with the funds, or the fitiances of the Exchequer.
