There was no opposition, and the and of extreme peculiarity; Learned Commissioner. : (Mr. Burrowes), in ordering his dis charge, observed with much feeling,, that Mr. Jones's case. but as a il t id t e l c ie d same e of tiq u e at i m t was one Which he felt himself.jus tilled in extending the merciful jurisdiction of - the Court. Taking into consideration who 11l r. Jones was,-the peculiar nature ofhi& transactions with the public--and the - calamities thereby brought on himself and his family—he.. (tha'Commissioner) felt much pleasure in affording to Mr. Jones.a protection to his person.— tie had certainly come before the Court with a lOad of debt, which, in ordinary, cases, would cause hith to hesitate ; but aware that his present unhappy situation was brought about by causes of which he could have had no forsesight, and over which he could have no contronl, bet( M r. Burrows) wa& happy in hay- ' ing it in his power to extend to hini the 'fun benefit of the act. • Mr. JOnes, atter stating that he bad, four years ago, volun tarily, and without any solicitation from his creditors, vested the whole of his property in the hands Of trustees, respectfully bowed to the Court and WithdrcW, re erring the hearty gratula tions of his friends in Court. co L o:;c 9.

It Must 'be the wish, and'ought to be the endeavoUr of eVerv.well wisher of bisgountry,,that many of the present high duties imposed raw on articles imported , into thisTrolvince from the. United Mates, should be abated. This would* very advantageous to trade, and it would, by removing in -part the tearrtation,' , ptit some stop to the pernicious practice of smuggling, which 'all the severe laws made against it have been found ineffectual. In the mean time it is not only the duty, but it highly concerns all persons of proyerty, and every friend to peace and good order, to Co-operate in discountenancing this offence aka: carrying , the Jaws•made against it into execution.

THE MARKETS.—We are glad to perceive that the markets abroad are so much improved as to enable our' merchants to pay the farmer better prices. In this village 44 cents per bushel is paid in cash, or 50 cents-in goods, for wheat ; and ashes com mand from 90 to 95 dollars per ton.—(Cont.

Lady Sarah Maitland, of, a daughter. • • - • AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR SEPTE3LBER MONTREAL, OCT. 6.—The principal crops being harvested last m on th ; there remained but only, the late sowed Oats and a few Pease, which have been housed in good order, • As Indian Corn is chiefly cultivated in new settlements for bread, in those places ,it is the principal crop. Although the season has been dry, the corn has not filled well,,and some dis aPpointment will be met with, by those •who depended too much on i t . Buck Wheat has been very indifferent this season ; the greater part has been blighted. The Root Crops have much improved by the rain, which fell im the early part of the month. The • Pasture Land has not been so good at this period, for some years.=The Land laid down to Grass this Swing, has been very successful, the plants are very fine.—Autumnal Ploughing is in full'operation ; great breadths are to be seen in each direction.—The encouragement given by the Legislature for improveMents in' Agriculture be comes very conspicuous. The farmers, aware of its generous intention, vie with each other .in order to be worthy of the ho nour conferred on. their endeavours; the zeal - evinced by them to improve the shape of each description of anilnals gives a flatter ing hope that the time is not very distant when they will be able to furnish as fine animals as•their neighbours. It must be admitted they owe their superiority to England, froM whence they import their best breed : and from, the same sources we have the like means. The District Show on the 28th ins't. was furnished with a great number of very fine neat cattle, amongst which was a very fine bull, of the Bakewell breed, belonging to Mr. Knapp, of St. Armand, that surpassed any thing pro duced before in this country. - The horses were not so numerous as at former shows, yet there were some very fine ones. Those of Messrs. Jefferies and Straker promise an • improvement in • out breed. ' • • Mr. Penner's Leicestershire Ram is a great acquisition to the country,- as a cross with him will greatly improve the breed' of sheep. 'ln regard to Swine, perhaps there are none finer than the different breeds already in the country. Although there were few competitors for the gratuity offered . for Cheese, those produced were equal, -if not superior, to what . is imported ; thus giving proof of the capability of the country to supply its wants. • - The Cattle Shows may eventually produce fairs, than which nothing is more desirable the times and place to hold them might be fixed as follows :—At Chambly on the Ist of Septem , ber, at L'AsSomptionon.the 13th, and at !ilOntreal on the 29th. Such an arrangement being made, and conveniences appro priated, it would give very essential advantages to- the 'District; and establish • a resort for the purchase of , each description of. stock, where the breedeis and feeders.could be acconimodated.- At present, the ccuntry is much =cramped for Want 'of those establishments.

FRUIT TBEEs.—There are few_objects more attainable than the increase of British fruit, nor is there any more valuable means of employing land. Large orchards would repay the speculator Well, and by a little attention afford a great increase of nu triment - As this is ascertained to be .the fact, is it not a shame to see, even in the garderis of respectable persons, old - trees past bearing allowed to stand useless, - merely because the owner is too indolent to send for a nurseryman to plant new ones, - or, in the instance of apples ) to put in new grafts'— (Durham Advertiser, Nov. 17.)

Effects of the late Rain at Battle-Bridge, 4 - ! ;:. —On Friday night last, the rain fell in torrents in the metropolis and its vicinity, and the low grounds were' completely flooded at Battle bridge. On Saturday morning the cellars of most of the houses were filled with water,, and in some, before the inhabitants had risen frank their beds, the water had gained a consideeable 'height up the stairs of their sleeping rooms. In the road leading from Bagnigge Wells Tavern down tothe Turnpike, which is at .the bottom:of the hill leading to Islington, the sewer (Aich is open, with railing on each side, to prevent persons falling into it) overflowed into the main road, and such was the strength of the current, that it carried away every thing in its way. A little child, belonging. to' one of the:cottagers, was driven down the stream which suddenly, overflowed the bank, and in the . -. sight of the dis tracted parent borne,to the open sewer, and car ried down the current at a rapid rate. • The 'mother ran after her child,- and, leapt into the Sewer, and threw out her arms,, grasping at the . child, but alas ! she missed the dear object of her aim, and it was driven under the arched sewer, and perished. The frantic mother, in a state of distraction,' would . have destroyed herself, but for the neighbours, whd witnessed the shocking circumstance. The body of the child has not yet, nor is it supposed that it ever will ..be found, as in all probability it was carried a great distance under' ground. Last Saturday, at midnight, we had a most violent storm of wind, rain, and hail, accom panied with thunder and very vivid, flashes ,of lightning; for about two hours; the wind and rain, which latter fell in torrents, beat in one of the windows, of the garrison Chapel, but we have heard of no other instance -of damage' by it.— (Portsmouth Paper.) •- • • ;) Fridai night a circumstance somewhat similar to the moving bog in Ireland, occurred at Read ing, Berks :—A garden at the back of a house in Castle-street, which forms the side of a fell into the valley beneath. The trees now stand with the roots uppermost, and the whole gives the appearance of an earthquake. Luckily this immense mass of earth fell hi the night, or serious accidents might have ensued . ; the pig -sties and out-offices at the back of , Bosher's-square are buried, and some pigs killed. The moving mass was stopped by. the dwelling-houses in the square, the doors of which were forced open by the shock.—( Bath Journal.) . On Sunday a Lady in the Steeple Chu'ch had her pocket cut while standing among the people at the entrance to the tables where the Lord's Supper was administered. The unprincipled vagabond was, however, deprived of reward, for the Lady missed nothing from her pocket.— (Dun dee Advertiser.)
