AGRICeLTURIL REPORT; lii the last Sessioli of. Parliament a tax of 7s. 6d. per horse was 'proposed -on, draught-horses, which was estimated to produee,X3uo,ooo. A. tax of per ton - on Pig Iron cannot produce so much to Go- vernment, and yet it is no less extraordinary than true that the "propt)*d _tax on Iron will bear heavier, t various trades Tthe Farmers in particular) than the sum proposed to lie laid on them last Session.— To elucidate this fao see,rhe following Estimate Of the additional charges on, the Iron used by a Fanner . who employS four" horses, should a tax of 40s - per _ton be imposed on Pig Iron. lb. s. d. • . :Vibe shoes of horses employed in Agriculture, ' And not. occasionally travelling on the read, - weigh about 81b. each set, iheluding nails ; • and each horse requires to be shod -eight : . tines in the year, which - .gives for each horse - - - • 6 4 , A`teani of four horses which travels occasion- - , - idly on the road, requites shoes weighing 1 , from to to tzlb. each set, with nails, and will require twelve sets in a year lOr each horse - . -' - - . - 'fake the half of this weight as an average of what a team of four horses 'wears out in a 'year - - , - • .gz N. li.

On Saturday, aboutfive - o'clock in the-afternoon, -the-inhabitants of Healicoal, a village about a mile west of. Longfrarulington, in Northumberland, were alarthed by the stack-yard and their houses taking - fire.. Having assembled from the adjoining field where they were working, every exertion was used to, stop the progress of the flames without avail. The wind blowing at the time strong from the north, and having been dry weather for several days, no less than four houses were burnt ,down.before the pro gress of the conflagration could be arrested. None of the clothes or furniture of the Sufferers could be saved,, e=ept an eight-day clock ; and What adds to the - calamity, a poor old woman, whose infirmities prevented her escaping, was literally burnt to death, and no part, of her body but her h ead and arms were , found entire. This calamity arose from a boy, in carrying a lighted peat across the stack-yard, dropping some of the ashes, and on its comtnunicat inc, to the straw, he threw more straw on with ,a view of smothering it, but which raged tha more, 'till it 'communicated with the • Corn stacks and houses as above related, by which they were all con-. • sumed. , Lately, when ploughing a field occupied by R. Black, Strade, Island of Bute, the " ploitgh struck upon a stone, which - at, first was supposed to be part of a rock; ,buton clearing the ground, it was found . to be a large flag stone, under which was discovered a.grave, containing several parts-of a human skele ton, and an earthen cup. The grave is - about two feet three inches in length, 18 inches in breadth, and 15 inches in depth. It is flagged with a large stone below, inclosed with one at each end, and on each side; there wee some of the larger bones nearly entire, the back; part of the jaw-bone with three teeth quite firm, and part of the skull. The cup may contain about three nglisli pints, is tole rably well formed, and Seems never to have been hardened by the fire. The carving appears to have been done by a hand-instrument on the edges, and . on two twigs raised on the outside, and such as indi cates a rude state of society. From the dimensionk of the grave, it is conje&ured that the corpse had been burnt, and theashes and bones colleaedlogether and placed there ; but to what use the Cup was destined, whether to contain the heart, or to what other pur pose, or to what age, the whole is to be referred, may be a fit Subjeti fOr the cobjeetUres of the An tiquarian. • PUELIC-OFFICE, HATTON-GARDEN .---YeSterday John - Flynn, alias Aracarty; alias Du,,frey,whO stood fully committed in the House of Corre6tion, for .robbing George Bedford, on the :highway, of a beaver hat,- and otherwise ill-treating him, was again put to the bar. It. appeared that, by means of an iron bolt to which- his bedstead was affixed, and which he had wrenched oat - of the wall, he' made a hole in the same, through which he made his escape. -Being missed for soiree time, he was at length found concealed in the privy next to the outer wall, which he intended to scale. No fresh charges appeared, against- him, and he was, Oa hi former commitment, sent to Newgate, for better security, and "to take his trial. , • • ------- INcityEsr.—Yesterday an Inquest„was held at the Carpepters' Arms, in Allen-Street, Clerkenwell, be fore GEORGE HODGSON, Esq., to inquire into 'the cause' of; the death of Mrs., Furtnelowe, in Great Sutton-street, Clerkenwell, who hung herself in her own house on Tuesday last.. It appeared that bet' husband. 'was in the Watch-making line, and died. insolvent about four months since, leaving herowith: three young children.

LAM ‘11.1 3 0 L T. COURT OF KING'S_BEICI.cp, APRIL 24. CRIMINAL INFORMATION Mr. o:3tiloW moved for a Criminal Inforwation against Charles lArarrel -Blunt for sending a Letter challeiOng• the PrOsecutor to tight . a duel. The Prosecutor, whose name,, he said, it was unnecessary to state, had a mortgage upon the estate of the-De fendiant, which he was preparing to foreclose. With, this view he had filed a Bill ; and it was his' recur rence to legal measures that gave rise to the Provo ; cation in question. The Defendant resided at Ham- Linrgh, and the Prosecutor in the County ol'Suablk. The former sent the Letter containing the Challenge to his Sblicitor, with express dire&ions to forward it, to the Prosecutor. The Solicitor, unconscious of its contents; delivered - it. Among other libellous' passages, the Letter contained these could not expect the condu& Of, a Gentleman , from a man taken'from the plough." The Writer then referred to the brutal manner in which his father had been treated by the. Prosecutor, and added, that ‘` his be haviour had compelled him to tell him he-was a cowardly poltroon, and be could look for nothing better from such a groveling reptile:"-• The Letter concluded by inviting the Prosecutor, in express terms, to come to Hamburg!), and bring his friend ; as it .was one.of the best places in. the World to settle a . dispute:of this kind..,—The Court granted • a Rule' to sbei.v Cause.

Some Of the counts were for soliciting him to make a false assesS _ment, without the offer of a bribe. To such counts there. was no evidence upon the trial ; yet the Jury found a general verdi& upon ~all the counts. The Learned Serjeant stated, about fifteen objections, most of them ; of so very frivolous a.nature, that Lord ELLENBOROUGH hinted he 'vas wasting the time of. the Court, and intimated, that he was endeavouring to stram.the construdion of the Aft, in orderto de feat the present InformatiOn. Lordship added; that the objeetions were so numerous,. ,that it was impossible to take correct notes of theM; and he therefore wished him to state them distinctly upon paper, and leave them with the Judges. The and, nlost important objection merits particular , notice. , -It went to the regularity of the appoint ment of the Office of Assessor....lt appeared that the Income Tax Aa, which passed in the 434-year of the Icing, referred to the. Office of Assessor as one which was to be regulated by. a subsequent Aa 'of Parliament. That Add was 'one to consolidate certain duties,' and was then' depending in Parlia•:- Meat, and-was intended to be passed after the PTO peity Act ; but .it so happened that it outran the Property ACI. The Property Ata was retarded in progress by various causes; and- the Consolidat ing Duties', Act passed Before the 'Property Bill had 'gone through the House‘_of Commons. Thus the Property Ad referred to• the appointment of Asses sors by a subsequent Act, when in faEt the Act which was intended to regulate them passed first.-- Lord ELLENBOROI . 343 , II seemed to think the objeCtiou of importance. His Lordship• thought the point so Material, that he ordered this Motion to - stand the first atnoag the new Trials; in order-that it might be argued without delay. • • COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. COL.

The application Was grounded on an affidavit, which set forth,,that in November, 1805, the Defendant attained the age • of 21 years, and* consequently becarnr.; entitled to the profits of a considerable estate. Stime time pre viously he" had known Col. Thornton, whom he visited at Thornville Royal, Yorkshire. While at the latter place he was urged by the Colonel to purchase several horses, and other property, which were to be disposed of. An inventory of pianres, 'libraries, curiosities, wines, 'horses, deer; hounds, anda va riety of sporting. articles was made out by the Plain tiff, and, the colledion - of pi&ures described to be. from the pencils of the most celebrated Masters. There were two Ruliens, valued at 1000 guineas ; a* Caracci, , at 800 ; a P:enus,and Cupids; and 'Several, paintings' of animals, eqoally choice.' The wines. were recommended as a valuable acquisition. The Port and, Sherry were said to be 4q years of age, and some of it had belonged to the King of France ; in short, the whole' was termed 1/onne - bouche wine, and worthy the palate ofa Bacchanalian% The Co lonel proposed that the Defendant should become a purchaser, and agreed to take securities for payment at two instalments,. payable in the year 1807 ; the whole amounting to 70001. Other purchases - were made; and some, time after the Defendant, being embarrassed in' his affairs, was arrested for 3001. at Doncaster : on which occasion the Plaintiff bailed him, and proposed that he should . give It *Warrant of Attorney to cover his effects, which he, the Y.aintiti, . was to hold as ,a Trustee. Advice on the_ subjeCt vas obtained froni a professional Gentleman at Don caster; and the Defendant finally executed the In strument, whi,cli confessed Judgment in the Court of- Corrnuon - Pleas to the amount of an immense sum. The same Judgment Was afterwards entered up, and: the Court'was now moved to set it aside. In support of the application it was stafed, that.the 'Defendant had beep imposed upon ; that the pie ' tures'w'ere copies, the horses diseased, and but few of the articles' purchased answering the description given of them... 11.Tany of the items before enutne ,- rated were not delivered ; and, tinder all the-circum stances of the cane, it was hoped the Cnurt,wonld order the Warrant of Attorney to be. ( - riven up, im. , r, the Defendant pziying all that was fairly •due to the riaintiff.—The, Court granted a Rule to skew causes. A - Gentleman of the name of Dysart, who resides at Brockney, Berk§, undertook fix a wager of 30 guineas, to kill 13 pigeons from a box, successively, I‘ilytout mining. , _The performance took place: on ,Wednesday, in Burnham fields, near Maidenhead, and bets were three to two against Dysart, -who killed the first twelve, and wounded the thirteenth. On Wednesday evening about half past seven 'o'clock, as a Gentleman, £)f th 6 name - of Weikins, who resides ncar St. Alban'S, vas coming to London, on 'horseback, a genteel logking man, on horseback, with a groom, apparently behind hiM, overtook him, and entered into conversation rjspeEting‘the - weather, . &c.
