JUNE SP.

Sailed his Majesty's 51-4 Royal Scrverexn, of 110
guns, Captain Curry, to the Westward, with three
vessels, laden with Ordnance stores, bound to Cork,
which she will protect as far as Plygninith ; his
Majesty's ship Grampus, of 50 guns, Cain. Caul-
field, with her convoy, consisting of five sail of
East Indiamen ; and the Archer gun brig, of 14
guns, 'Lieut. Sheriff, with a convoy for the Doss us.
Arrived from a cruize, and remains with the
fleet, his Majesty's ship Hydra, of 38 guns, Capt.
Mundy, with a French privateer and two fishing
boats her prizes ; crossing the Channel on her re-
turn to ;on, she retook one of the vessels captured
in San Sown Bay, and also a deep loaded coasting
sloop.
His Majesty's hired armed cutter Duke of Cla-
rence, of lu suns, is ordered to take charge of the
convoy bound to Guernsey. Wind southerly and
moderate.

His Majesty's ship Gangee, of 71 guns, Captain
M.KinleT, lately arrived from the West Indies, being
ordered into harbour to be paid off, her company
will be turned over in an equal proportion to his
M ►jesty's ships Defiance and ettagnifevni, of 74 guns
each, to complete those ships.
?L1 MOUTV, JUNE, 28.

Contrads are now advertised from the Victualling
Office, for 5000 bags of biscuit, to be delivered im-
mediately, in not less than 590 bags at a time; and,
by direction of the Lords of the Admiralty, those
very salutary regulations for the health of the sea-
men and marines of the fleet, are again about to
take place, which, in the late war, in the tong cruise
of 1$ weeks off Brest, conduced so much to keep
off that dreadful pest to our brave tars, the sea
scurvy, viz. a regular and plentiful supply of vege- •
tables of all descriptions that Kill keep, including
turnips, cabbages, onions, carrots, leeks, &c. &c.
by which means each ship's company can have three
fresh meals per week. The garden fields round
this town will, from the superabundance of vegeta-
bles of all kinds, amply supply the inhallitants and
the fleet into the bargain—witness the fortunes made
by the .contradors in the late war, on account of
vegetables for the fleets.
Lieutenant-General Simcoe, as Commander in
Chief of the Western Distrias, is hourly expeaed
here, to inspeet the state of this garrison. The or-
ders
now issued for a field day of each regiment,
after marching by in ordinary and quick time, and
going through the manual exercise, are to learn to
load and fire quick, charge in line, form close co-
lumns on right and left companies, charge in column
in various directions, both front, flank, and rear,
and in the most rapid style; for certainly if an in-
vasion should take place, the preset movement by
echellon, may be found too slow for the quick
movements of a lively French army.
Came in his Majesty's ship Albin, of 74 guns,
from the Channel fleet. S tiled the sceptre, g 74
guns, Capt. Dickson, to join the Channel fleet ; the
Peace:, of 20 guns, with a fleet to the Eastward ;
she has under her charge the Dutch ship Connne-
rantia, from Stnyina, with a valuable cargo of silk
and cotton, captured by the Deoher, of 18 guns,
going to Stan gate Creek, to perform quarantine,
having a foul bill of health. Sailed the Cunopu:,
of 80 guns. to join the Channel flame.

moNrEz.r AGRICULTURAL REINIRT.
Since our last Report, the season, upon the whole has been
favourable tit must o the purposes of husbandry. The rains
have had the most beneficial clf.ii‘is in filling and fur warding
the grain corps; the wheats and h trleys havebeen particularly
humored by them in many distr:et: 'Where they apiyared thin
and light on the ground iwforc they fell. The.b:•an and pea
crops arc also good in reueral. Return of wheat in Mark-lane,
from the 6th ts, the 11th of Julie; agreeably to the new art,
Total 6203 quarters--avelage 645. 10d, being Is. 4.'1. higher
than last return.
The hay met grass land: have likewise experienced much ad-
'vantage from the same cause, but in the more southern districts
they must have the effect of rendering the hay season later
than usual, and, from • the grass springing so late, the quantity
of hay will protiaaly nut be so great as may be supposed. The
crops however ou the more moist hay lands appear to be abun-
dant. 'flue value of old hay has ni( been much lowered. In
St James's market, lime Averages fmm M. to 71. Straw, from
11. 2s. to 21. :Is. At Wilitechapel-market, Metre, frown 41. to

Howe of both the !Piddle and cart kind sell high, which pro-
bably arises in part trona the great demand there is for them for
military purposes.
Hors..-. The prospefl of the cowling crop is very much mend-
ed ante the middle of last month, and may now he said to be
promising. They grew very feet since the last rains ; the blue
i• healthy ; and, though some arz backward, they shew vigour,
and will soon rucover if the warm weather continues. They
are free from the destructive insects, the fly excepted, in some
grounds altont Worcester. On the whole, the crop promises
50,000 nags, and it may much exceed that quantity. The
prices i f new Hops have fallen mina than .50 per cent. since
Senn:nth?, last, via. from WI. 10s. to Eland titCr4.2 of 1801 from
101. Gs. to 41. 10s. a 51. per cwt.
The rain this month has been very beneficial to the Corn of
all sorts. Wheat, except where the grub has injured it, is
likely ti be good, and ad the tyrois Corn will be a great crop.
The I lay, on hot forward soils, will be very light; the meadows
and oild woodlands a toter 'lily full crop. In some places
where the Swedish Turnips were sown early in the mouth,
I they are cut off ny the Fly, but it is thought not ono late to sow
the laid again with the sante sort. We are getting busy with
sowing whore Titriiipi. Clover for hay is wroth; ci,t, but ramie
yet carried ; the ermo iiroves heater then was ,ix;iveteal.
St4ck of all tests continues nearly statioitary ; Corn a little
lower. • Wool is much lower, except the flue snort ,tort-;.
it is a curious fact in the cultivation of Swedish Ternips,
and a rnuf of the high opinion they are held in, that six years
ago, the oily piece soiivii with them (in the neighbourhood of
the n•perter), was one '.f about eight acres:. This year there
has nut heeu Less than 400 acres cropped with this kind of tur-
nip,
