AGRICULTURAL REPORT FuR Jul.?:

The harVest, though it will be a backward one, is
likely to prove a productive one, and particularly in
tread Zorrl. From the returns already received from
the principal disu•icte, more than an average crop of
Wheat may teartinably be expected. The Barleys
and Oats arf. not so promising ; but Beans and Peas
Are generally good. The Hay crops, in the middle
and western counties, have proved light, The Turnip
districts have lost plant this season, from the extreme
heat of the weather, more than has been remembered
for some years parr. Ose forward sown through
Norfolk and Suffolk and early set-out, look well.—
The Potatoes went off considerably lower the end of
the month, but the late fine rains will recover them,
except on burning soils. The Hop plantations
throughout Kent and Sussex have a promising ap-
pe.it•aoce in the strength and clearness of the bine.—
Smithfield has had several heavy markets throughout
the tuoulli at reduced prices, and it is probable wilt
-xpetience a further reduction.. Lean stock of all
k'nds continue low in price, and from the shortness
of grass, ordinary Horses of every kind are scarcely
saleable on any terms:. Hogs and Pigs are rather in
advance. In the Wool trade there ha; been but little
done at any of the marts in the flock uuntiies, so that
it is nearly stationary at the last month's prices. •

Bow-STREET —Saturday afternoon, between three
and four o'clock, a chaise and four drove to the Office,
and a tall young man of
_genteel appearance got out
and entered•the Office. He stated that he had been
extremely ill treated by some persons, and wished
them to be Liken into custody ; it was then near four
o'clock ; there was no Magistrate sitting, he was in-
formed by the clerks and officers, that if he called
again in the evening a Magistrate would be sitting,
and he might then obtain a warrant or other process
against any person or persons who had committed
any offence against him or the Ring's peace, which by
no means satisffel him ; he abused those beltmging
to the Office, calling them very oppribrious names,
making a great noise in the Office with foul language,
whit h collected a great mob in the street ; he also
struck some of the officers and patrole, &c. The
chaise and fOur continued at the door of the Office for
a considerable One ; the account the drivers give of
their fare was, that he hired the chaise at theit master's
yard, in Swallow-street, to go to Dartferd, in Kent,
Ism he ordered them to drive to Ne.vgate first, where
he entered the prison, and remained in it a consider-
able time, and they understood he had given some
money away there, and had been d: inking freely.—
When he came out of Newgate, he ordered them to
drive to Bow-street Office, and as he declared he
' would wait there till the evening, when a Magistrate
would be sitting, the boys requested to he discharged;
he refusetffor some time, but was at length prevailed
on by some persons to do it, when he gave each of
the post-boys a bank note, understo d to be to the
amount of £lO each ; they then left the Office. The
young man continued in the Office for some time,
abusing the officers, calling them thieves, pickpockets,
and other infamous names, and making a great dis-
turbance ; he assaulted some of them, and after con..
.

tinuing this conduct for some time, he left the Office,
but returned again in a hackney clach, and renewed
his violence, which collected a crowd of people. A
boy, one of the by-standers, was taling with him,
whom Samuel Lack, an active patrole, belonging to
the Office, reproved for jute, fn ing with him, clusi-
tiLring him to be intoxicated, when he seiztd hint
most violently. Soon after this he stated himself to
be Lord ----I the son of the Eatl ct A
little before seven o'ch)ck, Sir NATHANILL 'CONANT
and Mr. glcumerxrN took their seats on the Bench ;.
his Lordship also took Lis seat at the table, when, in-
stead of it appealing that he had any charge to in-
duce him originally to tome to the Office, lie a,?..
dressed the Bench, making a long thatse ai.d attack
upon Lack, during which he made use o! low anti
scurrilmis names towards Lack end other), bilonzing
to the Office, which caused Air. 6-rnevmai, t!•e Obits
;Clerk, to reprove him for it ; hr, iu consequence, at-
tacked Mr. afArFORD must violrui.y .vti i abUSIVL
language, and challenged him to light, and after-
wards seized Mr. RielfAßMO'Nf and liulieit him uti
Ibis seat, insisting upon his going out to tight wit'
him. L,:ck, the officer, was called tip- n to ai.swur

the complaikt, and his dete;,ce W.4s l eriectly satistac-
tory.• The result was, that his Lordship W. 16 held to
bail to ans‘ker tie complaint of I.ai.k at the Sessions,
for the viol tit attack upon Irm.
Two men were brought by a party of the patrole,
from Parliament-street, charged with hissing at the
ritiNce RESIII4 If as an insult to his Royal Highness,
as the state carriage passed through that street to the
Hotrse: They were ordered to find bail
for the wistlemeanour.:
lliteaxiNo.—By letters received from Not-
tingham, %4;Q learn, that in the night of l'he 2dth ult.
four flames, belonging to Mr. T. Hayne, were
,broken at Sl,e7nion Arnsitage, and another at Stein-
ton. Some era worth £1 .1 a-piece, and bad never
been used. • is the morning of the `.47ti., a band
;of Luddites aftacked a hoe-se in Sneinton, in which

were frames. They were completely disguised, and
armed with hammers, guns, hatchets, &c. On their
,entrance, they called loudly for a light, and three-
tenet' to set hie to the house if one was m t brought
them. The man who had the care of the frames
fastened his room dots; but this they shivered to
I pieces in a moment, obtained•a light, and then pro-
ceeded in their work of desti uction. In the space of
'a fetv minutes four frames were destroyed. The
muster-roll was then called over, and the gang,
-amounting to 17, left the premises, and proceeded to
the house of Mr.. Cooper, whose door was forced, Mr.
;Cooper was ill in bed, and they told him their busi-
ness was to. destroy his frames ; they kept their
word, not leaviog the smallest portion of the machi-
nery together. manufacturers are of opinion
that subscribe,• arm, watch, or do what they may, they
nevi/ Will !ilia relief until the counties, hundreds, and
districts, are made responsible for the losses sustained.
