Z AST-LOTHI A IS REPORT.

From the lie;;;;ctigtothe fifth March, the weather mai

chinize having taken place at the last-un Miriam! .date,
a great deal of wheat, beans, and oats, were afterwards sown
under f6vonial.l.- rircumstamea. A continued rain, for
toady thirty hours, on the 27th and coils, ►topped peognw
at that tom; and the clay mile, in reinseqw-nce, arc su sa-
turated with moisture, as to prohibit every lope of proceed-
ing with peed work foe several days.
The wheat fields, generally speaking, look very poorly,
worse than ever known at this season .4 the year, whilst
the weather is such as not to afford any reasonable cause
exptetiug a rapid amendment. In mail) fields there
is a great want of Monts, and in others, where a scarcity
is less eeideat, the plaids are sickly, feeble nod ill rumoured.
In short, the aspect of the great majority of wheat fickle will
trot justify any sauguiue expectations of future Recces*.

stack-yards, considering the period of the season, are so
well filled, that there i► not the slightest reason to dread any
