AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR JULY,

The north-east winds periodically returning, and conti-
nuing a considerable length of time in this late season, pro-
ducing constant vicissitudes of sharp chilling air, and dog-
ti ty solar heat, cannot fail of producing ill effects on vege-
tation, however mature ; and more especially on the human
constitution, protracting and extending that epidemic
which has so long prevailed, the leading symptom of which
is cholera morbus, and which indubitably originated in the
constitutional derangement induced by sudden and repeat-
ed changes of temperature. It is probably, also, and in
analogy with cases of past times, that the disease is con-
tracted by atmospheric, not personal contagion.
Accounts of the crops are almost universally favourable,
from some parts brilliant. Indeed on all dry and rich
soils there is promise of abundance, on some beyond an
average, of both corn and grasses; so much, however,
c Innot be rationally expected on poor, particularly heavy,
wet lands, to which the state of the weather, throughout
the spring, was in an especial manner inimical *
The spring crops, barley, oats, and tares, with few excep-
tions, are expected to produce a fall average. Beans and
peas, as more exposed to the effects of the seasons and the
depredations of insects, are necessarily more uncertain
crops ; on some soils they are much injured, on others
give promise of a fair acreable produce. *
Sowing and re-sowing has been practised everywhere to
the third time, without success; for no sooner (lid the
plants appear above the surface of the earth, than the
blasting air devoured them.

In Suffolk and the bordering districts they are miserably
over-run with supernumerary labourers, and their poors'
rates are enormous and ruinous ; whilst in Cornwall, and
the far western districts, all their labourers are employed.
A most horrible account of long-meditated incendiarism
has been lately published from Norfolk ; the whole exten-
sive premises destroyed, with a frightful and torturing
death of animal+. It is the general opinion that the severe
distress for money in the country will compel the farmers to
thresh and sell their wheat with all possible haste, when
the price may be temporarily reduced below its fair level.

FIRE AT COVE.—The rendezvous of the
fleet in Cove Harbour, on Wednesday night, very fortu-
nately saved a considerable part of that extremity of Cove
near the Fort from destruction by fire; and if it should be
said of its occupants " they had little to lose," we must
yet remember that that little was their all. There are
three lines of houses parallel, crowded together, and rising
over each other. In the centre of the middle line, at be-
tween ten and eleven o'clock at night,.a fire broke out.
Sir PULTENEY MALCOLM, with his characteristic promp-
titude and vigilance, sent not only the boats of the Done-
gal, but those of other ships, well manned, and the fire-
engines of the fleet, and, by the prompt and judicious
assistance that was rendered, the fire was got under with
the loss of only two houses. This we learned from
an old fisherman, one whose house has been saved,
abridging, we admit, his narrative. But we give the
conclusion in his own words :—" And sure, Sir, 'tis well
they all deserve of us—didn't the Admiral sind his boats
and put down the tire, before they on the Bache knowd a
word about it, and the officers oft with their coats and
alavd like any body ; and the men, every one with his
yytittsotplentitur. ; dragging them up that hill, filled
-Nrit4 sav-wate ause they wouldn't trust to the chance

lf; Litt iiti-tlelyr sfortune should come to our doors,
