When I left London, 1 hattiast finished a perusal of th:c coltural Repori.;rand the daily Papers Were then teeming with accounts of the numerous Meetings to soggest Relief of the Labouring Poor, and of the state_ of the Landed Interest. Aceetding to the doctrines held forth at Guildhall and Palace-yard, these evils were , brought upon us by taxation alone. I was consequently very anxious . to hear the opinion of men, who, although they could not speechify at a County Meeting, I knew must have a better knowledge of their own situation than any Cockney - limners, bowever well they may talk anti write. I accordingly suggested to my friends thetecommentlation of the Ilo:Ird of - Agriculture towards bettering the condition of the Labouring Poor, t too Cot lagers should be encouraged with en acre of ground and keep a cow*, 'These nem lions appear very well, but the argument of the Farmers against it was too clear not to convince me of their bad tendency : viz. How was a' cow to be supported by cottagers in the winter WithoOt /ndo:ill:1g from their emplOyers . ? And where, except in local situations, is there a right of commiinage or waste sufficient for that pur- Pose ?

'rime expenee of parochial Poor is now increas ing, to such an enormous degree, that that alone',, According to the opinions of many intelligent men with whom 1 conversed, is. sufficient to cause, the ruin of the Agricultural Interest, unless taken into one general system of management by Parish Officers, under the direction .at Government.--- One frivad i a young termer, loot just finished his yearly calculation at expencil ; his farm coasisted of 300' acres, for which he paid GOOL. per annum rent, Auld the rate fitr the Poor only was 177/. for the year, and is,now increasing.
