At eleven o'clock this dav Brandreth w visit..
ed by his wife. They convOsed together for 'half ,
an hour. Loth were quite 'cOmposed at their first '‘
meeting, and during the 'conversation\ Almost
the only topic of discourse at this trying tWervieo
was religion. They consoled and encouraged one
another by benign representations of God, and of
the merits of.human conduct. She seems far ad-
vanced in 'pregnancy. Slie is to visit her' husband
again in the evening. At t,lelve the remotest
corner of the gaol x'as' beard to-resound to the'

ill swell of their 'Voices; exerted in singing, 'a

sowing has been generally retardtd fr4on the.:
dryness of •the clover lays and the foul state cif
the bean eddishes. In many of the faltn.s'ed lands
sown the last month, the seed lay so long in the
ground,without chitting that it is feared mtich
must have moulded and petihed. The It'lleat is
found to rise well in proportion to the straw
but that which WAS (tastily got up in the unsettleci,
weather (too large a portion of the late harvest)
still comes to Mark-Ltne in a cold uninarketable
state. Fine nimble saMples are in revest at ad.;.
vancing pt ices. Borleys.ot prime qu.dity, which
'in most districts are scarce, are daily getting
higher. Oats are not likely to advance, from the
Fen crops having proved the largest and best
grained that have been known for' many years
past. Peas of all kinds are productive, but the
Beans are not likely to produce 'half tt crop.—,
Clover Seed., though in racist parts well got up;
is not expected to rise well. Potatoes are gene-'
rally abundaat. The young Closr.eis never plant-,
ed better„ The length of dry weather has proved,
injurious to the. main crop of Turnips and early
Coleseeds, and Oil Cake" has in consequence rose
full 20 .per cent. The Grazing Counties are
short of feed, and of water also: *Hay is getting
op in price. Ledli Cattle are 'lower front the,
failure of Turnips and Coleseed ; but store Sheep
and banibs are daily advancing. Good Cart
Colts are dearer; and so are Cow-hine. Smith-
field continues wull snpplied with Beef, Mutton,.
and Lamb, at nearly last mOliths' Flees. Veal
