hired, from the same house, a piano-forte, .4 hict,
she sold to a broker in Harp-alley, for-Jai.; but ItTs
thy -proprietors consented to liquidate into the shape
of a debt.

. The Unfortunate young woman had nothing to
say it. her defence; and •as the jr4risdiction of the
nigistrate•Could only attach upon the latter Iran--
adion, he inquired if the prosecutor had any other
objet than the return of his harp ? and was an-
swered that that was his sole obje6t, and that he
would not have exposed the young woman now,
tot for the -preceding transaelioni. she was there-
fore remanded,,in order ro give her an opportunity

that -the 501. note was, with others, to the amount
. of 1770). in, a locked box.
.The prisoner knew the
notes were kept there, and being. Often entrusted
with her -mistress's keys, she .was suspected of
having stolen the nate ; but there being'no proof
against the prisoner, she was. discharged. .
Caroline Cook, fair Cyprian, was

saute day, he was met by =the prisoner, when she
embraced him in her antis,' and he could not disen-
, gage himself froM her. ,(This is now a common
practice with women of the prisoner's description to
rob gentlemen.) She. intreated him to go home

she excused herself, and very suddenly made. off,
When he got to ti-e bottom of Ludgate-hill, he dis-
Covered the pocket of his pantaloons mined inside

THE HARVEST.—The intelltence Fri •y
be depended 'upon as anincntiC, u regard to I:r
the counties of Gloucester, Worcester, 5..10p, and
Chester. A citizen, of Bain, v..ho a rem/ da.)s ago
travvlled i6O miles throuAh t!.is observed
that ths wheat; barley, and Oats ~.ere :no where
thin upon the ground, except in a tew Ii Us
.on
the high land abok Pettj France. .On the con-
trkiry, all these kinds. of grain were uniformly
plentiful and abundant; so as to promise consider-
ably more than an at erage crop, particularty bar-
ley. wheat and barley were nearly ripe,. If
the present fine weather shall continue,. we May
'expect speedy, mosi prosperous, and • bouririfill
harvest. As some persons are apprehensive that
the late heavy rain might have 'done mischief to
the corn, it is proper to notice, that it has beaten
down and lodged not many roods, scarce one rood,
out of- the many thousand acres which passed under
the attentive view of thiS traveller.

A Cortespofirtent who has :ately travelled through
the c,unties ot-BeTlts,-Bucks, Bedford,
York, Liocoln, Sutfoik, and Esst x, nifornis us,
that the glowing crops of corn, particularly wheat,
stung
:thick; on the ground,' are well eared, and
promise fair tor an abundant produce.—(:dxford
Journa) . • .: •

The second Hay Harvest round London proves to
bs the most productive of any remembered for
many.years, and the deficiency of the first is amply
made up by the latter, the average crop of it being
about a load per acre..
It may be um-ful to . mention a few fails which
will explain 'some peculiarities that have occurred in
thrs season. The medium quantity Of, rain which
has fallen at Bathfor lie last seven years, was' about
27 inches annually .; or at the rate of 2i incites each
June last. there was but lit tle. more than
half an inch (o,50) of fairi., From this deficiency
of moisture, the growth.of both grass and corn was
checked to an'nnusual degree; .but. July. the r.tin
Ineasured rear 5,i inches (5708), or nther more
than 2i times the medium quantity of a mouth. In
the. first 21 days of August, the supply m f rain has
been less than two inches (1943) 'which sciroely ex-
ceeds the usual rate. To expl tin the blessed eff,Cts
of the bounteous rain and warm sunshine of July,
in tillering the grain,. and rendering. the 'thin crop so
abundant, -it-may .be proper to Mention one obser-
vation: About three weeks ago, a Sornersetshire
farmer, was asked whether the late wet weather bad
not greatly improved - the corn. . aGswered,
that it had been of-great service; and, as a proof,
remarked that. he 'hod himself recketted 53 stems
growing from one root of wheat ; but added, he did
not b:ittielltat all • of tht:m would come to .p,ertec7,
tion,. so as to bear grain.---Bath Ch7d7iide.
