MONTHLY AGRICULTURAL REPORT.

The long continuance of a warm, genial, and, in its happy
effects, vernal season, has universally changed the appearance
of the country, and nearly put an end to all solicitude on the
score of winter provision. The quantity of after-grass is not
Only far, beyond ordinary years. but of far better and more
nourishing quality, partaking. in a considerable filigree, of the
nature of spring grass; whence it is to be toped, that it will
have no tendency to cause the rot in sheep, as has been ap.
prehended • on the contrary, it may be expected to forward
cattle of allkinds so materially, that good Christmas dinners
may be expected by all those who have money to purchase
them. Even the poorest grass-lands have produced an un-
common after-crop, and the quantity and make of the rowels*
upon the best is highly satisfactory. The finishing cut of
Levan*, in Kent, so little cultivated elsewhere. and insuf-
ficiently there, has been wonderful. Of seeds, the reports
are not so favourable. The early sown turnips ate improved
to the utmost possible deg ee ; those sown in the autumn
are equally fortunate. but no great expectious can ever be
realized front latter sown routs. Swedes are scarce, and in
general the turnip runs too much to top, and the present is
not the season for twenty-pounders. 'Flte price of hay is
necessarily reduced. Turnips and potatoes may be probably
estimated at three quarters of a crop. the latter heing made
up to the demands by importation. The quality of potatoes
indifferent; the latter ones, hard. Fodder will be scarce in
the winter, and roots ought to be economized, in Conte
tin.. of continued frost. which may leave the improvident
cattle.keeper in great snails. Meat must inevitably be
dear in the spring, nor can there be bto many cattle stalled a.
usual. By letters from the Bishopric of Distimin, perhaps
the most backward part of England, with respect to the corn•
harvest, wheat was aloottil, uncut, ou the 20th nit. Gleaning
has been somewhat too good this year, front the dryness of
the grain. Harvest nearly finished throughout Scotland, and
plenty of corn, but the oats du not yield to expectation. On
the crops genertsoly, calculators have been sumewhat too
sanguine, as seems to lie indicated by the state of the markets,
which might have been alarmingly high had the ports closed
earlier. Wheat-sowing is finished in the best and forward
districts, the clays working like garden nioulds in an admirable
style for the drill, which is amuttally increasing on English ex-
perience.

THE NATIONAL REGISTER;

BiINX FORGERIES.

We extract the following curious details from the
postscript to a pamphlet, just published by Mr. C. W.
Williams :

The following circumstances have occurred in my own
person, and, being strongly illustrative of the necessity of
alteration and amendment in Bank notes, as well as couch,.
sive of thBemiscientionniew- a fallibility on the part of the
Bank an din tinguishing between genuine and forged notes, I
cannot omit mentioning them here.
" Having found some difficulty in passing zone pound note
which was somewhat torn, though by no means defaced or
obscured, I took it=to the Bank to get it eachanged. Not only
the note, but myself, were conned over in a manner not very
agreeable in a public office. After considerable delay, and es•
animation by several clerks and their several inspectors, I
was desired to take it to the " one and two pound note office."
We there underwent a further scrutiny by two clerks, who
appeared somewhat embarrassed as to their proceeding. I
was informed. "it could not he examined inunedietely, and
would take some time," and asked if I was in a hurry t I
inquired if it were a good or a bad note ? Sonic unimportant
observations were made touching the date, which was alleged
to be rather obscured. I observed, I had nothing to do with
that, or what ,night be necessary after I was gone. The clerk
said that " something was neceasary—that he must examine
if that member was written of." I stein added, I had no right
to be delayed on such ground; the only question in which I
was concerned being, was it aped ore bad tots ? It was bow
ever in vain. I then begged lie would do what was needful,
observing that it had already engaged me a considerable time ;
—he politely apologised, but it was necessary. He returned
in ton miscues, having written on the note " oth May, 1810,"
and his initials, desiring me to take it to the person who sent
me there, and he would exchange it. I did so, and was again
examined and delayed, and even required to write my fume dad
address oaths mate. Finally, after having been sent from one
clerk to another, until I had passed the ordeal of four clerks,
with their four assistants, I received a new note in exchange.
The whole occupied thirty five minutes by the Bank clock.
"The note here alluded to being an old note, some justifi.
cation might perhaps he urged. In the following, however,
even this plea was taken away :
" Some days after, being desirous of exchanging a ten
pound note for small ones, with the view of being secured at
least in this case from forgeries, I stepped into the Bank, nut
conceiving it would be but a moment's affair, the note being
quite owe. One clerk (cashier) received it, examined it by a
table which hung up at his side, and which appeared to be a
list of numbers, with corresponding dates, or perhaps a list
of the numbers and dates of ascertained forgeries. Al all
events, au appeal was made to this table. This clerk tore off
the signature, and handed it to his inspector, who also exa-
mined it ; and having decided in his own mind on its genuine-
ness, wrote his initials in red ink across the note. It was
then returned, and I was desi.ed to go lower down. There I
waited a considerable iiine, as it is necessary to claim, as the
phrase is, that is, call out one's turn to he served. I was
here required to endorse my name and address; this was
really too lu ; the note was newt I observed it was
payable to bearer. I declined. I was not positive as
to the person from whom I had received it. I gave my name,
but did not whit' to be responsible beyond the possession.—
The clerk was somewhat offended, and observed that if the
note was my own, why should I refuse to put my name on it?
I asked if lie would undertake not to come on me should the
note turn out forged hereafter e He said that was impossible.
'flue inspector had said it was genuine, did 1 not see he had
marked it? I observed it might be forged, as in the case of
Mr. Hammond. He expressed his ignorance of that case,
and treated the matter as false. I retired and went to Mr.
Hammond, in Bishopagate-street. Mr. Hammond thought I
might have put my name on it, as their only object was to
prevent fraud. I asked was it true, as he had stated, that
the clerk and inspector endeavoured to recover the value of
the 101. forgery taken from him, even asserting that the
former would loose his situation, if it were nut repaid ? Mr.
Hammond said yes, but that he was not so absurd an to pay
it, and never did. I returned to the Bank, mentioned the
fact. again requested payment, on the specific grounds that 1
was not positive whether I had received the note of my
banker or not : and that it wonlvl save me the trouble of
going to the west end of the town; or ou an understanding
not to re-demand payment If it proved a forgery. " My good
Sir," said the clerk, " yon are giving yourself a great deal of
minecesaary trouble." I begged to say, I was the best judge
11f the degree of risk I chose to ruts. Finally, I was obliged
to ascertain if it had been actually received from my banker,
and who, having made himself responsible to me, I esi-
doused the note, and the following day it was exchanged
at the Bank. The delay and inconvenience was truly dis-
tressing. Many persons in the office exhibited dissatisfac-
tion at the ire r they were also inconvenienced. Impatience
and irritation were indeed loudly expressed by many.—
Let the reader Wile WS not experienced it imagine villa
tax upon time, what an expense, even to the Bank, what a
gratuitous alienation of ',untie feeling ! Let the Diseetors
examine this department ; let them go ineoguito, and judge
fur themselves. Thus the Pimple exchange of a note, re-
qniring the examination os so many tiro ks—the agency of so
inaity inspectors—the scrutiny of another office—the appeal
to the ledgers—the loss of sa much time—and above all, the
ultimate indecision on the putt of the Batik, and the taint
retnaining ou the note, to the embarrassment ta' the bolder,
who, perhaps, in the interval loses his security. These two
eases, in the Bank of Ireland, would not have occupied the
time one would take to cross the office. 'Pere n man goes

P(X)R'S- RATES.
A redaction of the Poor's Rates is likely to he effected by
no mew ara ressilly as by the encouragement of industry
among the takawrisig glasses. Persuaded of the truth and im-
portance of titre principle, a number of Gentlemen have
united together lit the metropolis, for the purpose of obtaining
information on the best means of furnishing permament em-
ployment to the industrious pour, without enernachintt on any
existing occupations. We have been favoured by their Se.
cretary, Mr. K. Wills, with a copy of the inqniries, which they
have already circulated through different parts of the nom.
try ; api which, as relating to a question of considerable inter.
est in political economy, we are happy to lay before oar
readers t-
-1. If such of the poor? as have small families, and are out of work,
or whose low wages are insufficient to maintain them. were supplied
with a small portion of land, nearly rent free, with the means of
erecting a cottage. if necessary, on the same, would it prove a sti-
mulus to industry, be accepted and cultivated, and eventually reader
parochial relief unnecessary?
2. For persons with large families. say six children and upwards,
in similar nrcumstantxi, would it be considered likely, if a cow and •
itilEcient quantity of land, say one and a half or two acres. at akw
rent. were supplied, that such would be enabled to live without pa-
rozhial assistance ?
3. What effects might such assistance be expected to prodne, in a
given number of yours (say. 10 0: 15) on the moral conditios, and
happiness of the poor, especially of the rising race, and the welfare ttf
the community at hinge P

superintendance, (which has in same instances been practised) s.;:ts
