where they had greatly suffered by the idea and worm, as to at.,
ford a prospect of a fiill aierage crop. The early sown Bart. ye
on strong laud, have been injured by die cod rains at beginning
of the month, bon those on tender soils never appeatvsl more pro-
mising. Rye Livery forward. Beans and Pus look well only
where the hue has been freely used. The Oats, though got fn.
late, bid fair in Most districta for a good crop. The Clovers are
generally abundant, and the meadow and other grass land, never
bore a greater !anthem The at harvest bas Commenced ni
various pans round London, and the markets have in cons:-
quence experienced a considerabli fall in prices. The wealier
has been very favourable to,the Potatoes, which have, been sel-
dom known to plant better. The Turnips, Rape, and other small
Seeds standing for a crop, do nut promise great product. The
Meat Markets were never so scarcely supplied with Leef and
Mutton, as they have been through the month, and tie price, are
uni4ually high. Every kind of lean stock commands tbt:
price. Our Correspondeme I.ettis from all parts note lout pule

cellar in Glasgow, st as observed to be sitting very
uneasy in. her nest, which induced the owt.er to in-
vestigate the cause; when on examination he tound
the rats had carried off the birds to their young, and
the hen in return had robbed the rats of their brood,
which in nibbiing under lar wings, was the cause of
her sitting with so much impatience.
Wednesday, James Fergus:on, convicted at the last
Circuit Court held at Glasgow of robbing Thomas
Inglis of 1232, in the Old Wynd, was executed an a
temporary platform, in front of the Jail. His bzha-
vioar was compbsed, and suitable to the occasion; he
was much affected when he parted from theclergyman.
