THE HARVEST.
TO THE EDITOR ( F THE SUN.

Sic,—As you did roe the honour of inserting a letter from
me last week regardir g the harrest, I will, if you please, follow-
up my report by giving you a description of its present aspect.
A grater part of th wheat is cut, and the result is far more
than the farmer's anticipations. A most respectable and intel-
ligent individual, who Las about ICO acres of wheat, informed
me that he s' ould have a great deal more than he had last year
from the same number of acres ; and he added, '• My cousin,
who farms about the same quantity, will have 300 sucks more
than he had last y, ar." This fact, when taken into considera-
tion with the splenrid crop of last season, sufficiently proves
what I have stated in my last lettcr, that this is one of the most
bountiful harvests within the memory of man.

—....._
A great deal of rain fell here on Tuesday, otherwise the
weather has been beautiful and dry ; hca!thy breezes prevail,
which is more congenial to corn than intense heat without air.
I would just add one word, by way of information, as to a
field of wheat I saw this season—and it is the eighth succes-
sive year, with one )ear excepted—on which wheat had been
grown on the same ground ; the soil was not much deeper than
the portfolio on which I am writing, and the crop was the fin. at
I think I ever saw. It was the produce of " Daniel's patent
manure," and grown by him on his estate at Wilisley, near
Bath. An eminent agriculturist, one of the M.P.'s of this
county, who was with me at the time, pronounced it to be
" marvellous ;" and I think you will allow, aft.r this. I may
again subscribe myself CORNUCOPIA.

THE LATE ACCIDENT ON BOARD

TIIE MOONLIGHT.

Last evening, an inquest was held by Mr. Bedford, the
Coroner, at the St. Martin's public-house, Duke-street,
Adelphi. on the body of James Purcell, aged 13, who met viith
h s death from a frightful accident on board the Moonlight, on
Monday evening last.
Mr. James Coppock, solicitor, of Cleveland row, appeared,
from motives of charity, on behalf of the parents of deceased;
Air. Catteras on behalf of the Iron Steam-boat Company.
Mr. Edward Richards, of 1, King-street, Cheapside, de-
posed that he was on board of the boat at the time of the
accident When they arrived at Hungerford she was fastened
to the Prince of Wales. After landing and taking in passengers,
the boat was set in motion by the direction of the captain.
The role, which had not been unfastened, caught the boy's leg,
and cut off his foot, which fell into the river and sunk. INn
orders were given to unfasten the rope before the captain gave
the word to go a-head. There was no one on board the Prince
of Wales to let go the rope. If there had, the accident would
not have haKened. When a cry was raised, the boat was
stop ed, but not before the boy's foot was tom off.
Mr. J. harsh saw the deceased fall on the t'co k. Heard a
cry of '• Stop her." Then saw that his foot had been torn cif
at the ankle, and blood streaming from the maimed limb. The
boat was not crowded, yet the lad sat in a coil of roles at the
head of the boat.

Alr. Walter Scott, secretary to the Harwich and Birming-
ham Junction, gave similar testimony. He sat about a yard
from the dee( aced. He did not see the rope fastened to the
Prince of Wales. When the captain gave the signal to go on,
he saw the rope coil round the boy's leg. He and others
called out to unfasten the rope. but there waa no one on the
padele-boxes, or on board the Prince of Wales, who heeded
the eq. A lady came, but she was afraid to touch the rope.
as one of the crew were in the bows of the Moonlight at the
time. A man came up when it was too late. If the boy bad
been on the seat, the accident would probably not have hap-
pened. 'I he rope was a yard from the end of the sear.
Alr. Catterns said it was the duty of the pierman to let go
the rope when the went was given by the captain.
Alr. Frederick Ntcolle, one of the surgeons at Charing-cross

Hospital, proved the reception of the deceased shortly after the
accident on Monday evening. On examination he found the
left foot had been torn from its socket, and that his right thigh
had heen fractured aed collapsed. The fle,h had sustained
great injury. The fractured limb was amputated below the
knee on Tuesday. On Wednesday there were signs of mortifi-
cation, and further amputation higher up the leg was had re-
course to. On Friday he found it had extended to the right
thigh (the maimed limb being the left one). He gradually
sank, and died that evening at eight o'clock. He was sensible
up to the time of his death, at which time his parents were with
him. He did not seem to suffer much pain. He attributed his
death to the violent nature of the wound, and to the inflamma-
ble turn which it took.
James Stewart, the pierman, was next examined. He could
not say who fastened the rope to the Prince of Wales. It was
his duty to do so, but there were so many boats there at the
time, which rendered it quite impossible that he could attend to
all He could not say whether the engines of the Moonlight
were moving at the time of the accident or not. He let go the
rope at the stern of the boat, cot that in the hews where the
accident occurred, when the word was given.
After much conversation, it was agreed to adjourn the in-
quiry until this day at seven o'clock.

TATTE RSA LI2.3.—YESTERDAY.
With the exception of a solitary bet of 1,500 to 30 against
the Peri colt for the Derby, the business transacted yesterday
afternoon was exclusively on the St. Leger, two or three at-
tempts to commence proceedings on the Great Yorkshire
Handicap, at Doncaster, having wholly failed. Weatherbit—
he might, with great propriety, be re-christened " Weather-
cock"—was again in favour. The outlay, it is true, was small,
but the feeling was "undeniable," and he very nearly regained
the premiership. Mir!' Sarah, however, was backed, on the
whole, for a gond stake, and throughout the afternoon had an
unequivocal call. The betting touched every horse in the
market save Old England, and showed a marked disposition in
favour of The Baron and Due au Durras. Alentor, the Merry
Monarch, and Red Robin, were backed for two or three hun-
dred pounds each, but were not really in force. Latest prices :

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SlR,—The past meeting at Yolk has done great credit
to the inhabitants, and to every one engaged in the
management of it. The Great Ebor Handicap, after the
withdrawal of Lightning, The Shadow, and Vol au-
Vent, was left entirely to the Infant and Coheiress, the
latter winning cleverly. I saw nothing likely to beat
Coheiress but the Infant, who ran very badly. The
Great Yorkshire Stakes went to Miss Sarah in a
canter. I did not expect to see her nearer than third, as,
to my eye, she did not seem to be exactly in trim ; her
running for the Oaks over such a trying course and
finishing w‘ll, elevated her in my opinion ; if my readers
remember, I advised them to keep an 'eye upon this
animal after its running at Epson, which advice I can-
not do better than urge them to adopt, for it is very
evident that the Doncaster St. Leger will not be won by
Weatherbit, Kedger, or the Merry Monarch, who are as
rood as boiled. Annandale, Pam, John Davis, the
Lancashire Witch, Winchilsea, The Hermit, Plaudit,
Cur de Lion, Old England, and Little John, are nearly
in as bad a plight, as far as regards their chance of
winning the great northern event. The only animals that
are likely to cut a figure to some purpose are, Pantasa,
Mentor, Midlothian, The Baron, Worthless, Miss
Sarah, and Red Robin, dark blue and red cap,
or yellow for the winning colour.
Some sport, in a small way, will be found at Egham on
Tuesday and Wednesday, which, of its kitid, will be
first rate.
On Tuesday the Gold Cup will go to Lord G. Ben
tinck or Mr. ltamsbotharn, with John o' Gaunt or Pine-
apple. The New and Old Windsor Stakes are destined
for Eh mi or the Mus colt. A5O sous. Match between
Mr. Gre vine's Trump, and Mr. Whitehurst's Eleanor,
will be won by the former. A Plate of 40 sous. is des-
tined for Sir S. Spry, with Subduer. The Runnymede
Stakes to Velox.
On Wednesday the Surrey and Middlesex Stakes,
with four acceptaaces, will have Pineapple, 5 yrs, 7st
91b, for winner; and the Devil-among-the-Tailors, 6 yrs,
sst 101 b, second. The Amateur Stakes look well for
Coal Black Rose or Karrac. The Queen's Plate of 100
guineas will he won by one out of Kent's stable. The
Egham Stakes ought to be won by the Devil to Pay. A
S%%t epstakes of 25 sous. each will be won by Eleanor,
Strike-a-Light second.—l am. Sir, yours, &c.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sut,—Mr. "Remington has replied to my letter.
He is kind enough to say in the opening that if any
exprt ssions condemnatory of the course when by me
have been used by any parties, they have not been pub-
lished by him or with his privity or consent.
I was compelled to vindicate myself against a charge
as absurd as it is untrue.

To repel a charge of stealing Mr. Remington's line, I
was obliged to use arguments to show the absence of all
inducement to do it, and fur that purpose I %%as obliged
to show that Mr. Remington had asked the several sums
of 2,3, 4, and 5 millions of money to make his line.
That be had varied that line.

That he had subsequently start( d a London and Man
Chester, and York line, asking 7,000,000/. to make
the two.

That he might as well have charged the London and
York Company with having stolen their line, as charge
me with stealing a line to Manchester.
Mr. Remington does not deny asking for the various
sums amine), which I have mentioned to accomplish
the same line. _ _

Either his juigment was unsound, or he varied what
he calls his line, as often tti, he asked diff,rknt sums.
I have founded my statements on documents issued by
himself.

Mr. Remington says, I quote his own wards—
"ln 1840 it was propo,ed to carry out the scheme
alone between London and Manchester, for which I
thought then, and think now, 4,000,0001. sufficient."
If he thinks so now, how can he reconcile with that
(Onion his prospectus, to which I rail- him in the
orning Ile, al I of the 23d of May last, asking for
2,000,C001. only, in 40,000. shares of 50/. each.
How does he reconcile with this his improved judg-
ment, asking 3,000,0001.?
Or his sounder judgment, asking four ?
With his present opini,n, that 4,000,000/. are enough,
why does he ask 5,000,0001 ?
I have publi:hed no names in support of the line to
which T have been appointed ko.lipitor, but such as were
given to mein or :subsequent to Jnne of this year.
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
