BRISTOL, FEB. )2.—ln the course of the last
week a refractory disposition had shewn itself among
the libourers, principally the diggers, on the New
Cut in this city, and on Friday a body of them re-
fused to work. Their pretended grieVance was, an
undue exa&ion on the part of the DintraaOt re
spewing the hour of breakfast. Their example was
soon followed by the whole line of diggers, about
400 in number. ; and threats were advanced of
stoning all workmen- of every denomination who
persisted in working until their supposed grievance
was redresSed.- In consequence of this about 800
I.vorkmeil suspended their labour; and as one mo-
tive of discontent is too frequently made subservient
to another, the rioters required an advance of ‘w;ges ;
but their demands in both cases were so unrea-
sonable and ill-judged, .that the Contraaor, much'
to his credit,- persisted in refusing to comply with
them ; and'the men, after losing three-quarters of
a day, rebarncd to -their labour—more, perhaps,
from a dread of the military than from a due con-
viaion of the impropriety of their condud.

M. LEROI, who-bas made many successful experio.
meats in agriculture, advises
.persons by no means
to procure grain for sowing from a soil north of their
own land, but from a country South of it ; because
be says it is a general rule, that the product of seed
improves in going from south to north, and that it
decreases in virtue in going from north to south.
Tuesday night the stable of Mr. Prytherch, sur-geon, Of Carmarthen, was destroyed by fire, through

were fortunately saved, and the flames did not ex.
tend fUrther.
