MONTHLY AGRICULTURA L REPORT.

So far as personal examination has extended the
Wheats are backward, and fortunately so, from the
extremely ungenial state of the weather, the north-
easteilv winds having continued almost invariable for
a lonuer interval during the present mouth then at any
former period of the spring. A great portion of the
good people of Britain are solecinv, themselves by their
fire-sides on Midsummer-day On the favourable side
of the case, with respect in the prime concern, the
‘Vheats, dry weather is generally hitund beneficial to
that crop. The plant is strong and luxurimt, with
%cry little appearance, however, of tillering or offsets,
and in places thin ; discoloured also, as usual, from
atmospheric al`ection. IVith a favourable change of
the weather, 11Theat may yet be a productive crop.
Shonld the weather continue in its present state during
the flowering or blooming process, the conseqoence will
be, a greater quantity of blighted and stunned ‘Vheat
than in the last crop. The spring corn is retarded in its
growth by the same cansv, and looks yellow, and in
part sickly, tut on the whole, there is a considerable
bulk. Beaus and Peas have thus far a favourable Ns.
pearance. Closer, lucent, and the seed crops generally,
are much cut by the cold, especially in exposed situa-
tions. The hay harvest in Middlesex. h s been good ;
01 the best lands particularly heavy. Bops have suffer-
ed notch Irons the easterly winds. Potatoes are a con.
utterable breadth. and a plant full as forward as could
b- expected. Tomtit sowing has been early this sea-
son, and the Swedes have been soave time above ground.
Much of the use nl periodical nonsense afloat about
catching turnip-flies. From the abundance of hands,
the lands generally in good filth, and the drill system
is making its way in all parts. All hope relinquished
of a good crop of fruit, except perhaps of latter fruits.
The fall of Innis seems to have been least favourable
in Dorset. A disease in swine. in some of ahe western
counties, has enhanced the price of store pies. Cattle
and sheep, fat or lean, abundant, and at very malt rale
prices, with an appearance of a still further reduction in
price of all the necessaries of lite.

NEW HAYMARKEL' THEATall.—The New Theatre
Royal its the Haymarket, stands con ipicuously ornamen-
tal among the onprovemems at the coon end of the
town, and immediately in the vicinity of Carlton Palace.
It is au elegant lasts:lid structure, with a noble portico,
sustained by five lofty pillars, of the Corinthiao order of
architecture. Without side the portico, at each extre-
mity are the gallery doors; within are five other doors,
opt nine_ to the Pit, Boxes, and 13 ix Office, surmounted
by five windows, whicls open into the saloon. Over the
portico is a frame of circular windows, which give light
to the gallerica awl upper parts of the house. The whole
frontage is stucc4ed, in imitation of stone, and is unos-
tentatiourly sviat and elegant. The entrances to the
11,xes and Pit ate far more co:innotlions than they were
in the old Theatre, and the d-scent to the Pitt, is con-
siderably leas. The interior is extremely beautiful, and
the processi 1111 l , with an elegantly painted ceiling, par-
ticularly excite admiration. There are two tiers of boxes
built geotnetrically, with projecting fronts, unsupported
pillar., so that the view of the stage is completely
unobstructed, and the elegant frequenters of this part of
the Toeatra will add conspicuously to the coup (reef/
Behind the front part of the second tier, extend* the
whole width of the house, is a comittod.ous salon, taste-
fully fitted up. Even with the lower gallery, which is
very spacious, are slips, so constructed as to leave the
view from the gallery entirely open front every pan; and
the pit is roi:iewhat larger and better laid out than the
old one. The entire budding reflects much credit upon
the artists engst•Led in its erection, and is admirably cal-
culated to ensure to the proprietors en IieRTSAOII to their
extensive patronage.
