AGRICtILTURAL REtORT FOR OCTOBER.

The late continued dry weather enabled the farmer to
complete his bean harvest with eqnal success as his
wheat ; and even the northermost parts of Scotland have
shared is this good fortune ; which, however, has been
alloyed by the consequent backward state of the grass,
sad injury done to the turnip crops. As threshing has
proceeded, the general damage to the wheat crops from
Iniblett, has become more lamentably apparent ; and in
all probability, notwithstanding the abundance of the
! crop, tine samples will he 9warce, and dear as the spring
advances.—ltarley and rye are vast crops, with too
large a portion of. damaged samples in the former.
Beans are fully equal to the great expectation of former
reports. Peas, a large crop, with defective samples.
flossii have not done well. Potatoes. a full average crop.
flu ifestlantf and Ireland, the mildew has not made so
great raiageit al in thin country. In the former, the
most sanguine calculators adjudge the wheat crop to be'
Hell fourth above an averace, and all well got in.
Kerley and oats below an average. Beans anti peas
sliandant. Potatoes somewhat short, hot of fineytftlity,
Orchard resits in vast plenty. Prospect for turnips
bad. The demand for farms in Scotland seems hithotto
to have sustained no clicek, at the rents current fei
several years past. Want uremployment for labourers
iv the approaching winter apprehended. In Ireland,
universe rienty of every thing hut money and content-
merit. II heat, a heavy sale at lids. per quarter, and
oats at 12s. Any portion, on ;:cannot of rent, obtained
with the utmost difficulty, and the lower tenantry is
particular, in a state of despair. Throughout Vnglatiri
the prices of corn have been gradually falling until
within the last tau or three market days. Live stock of
an kinds, of which there is gr. at plenty, Ism suffered a
similar depression of prier. both from the scarcity of
money in the hnvers, and the prospect of having much
artificial cattle food to purchase in the winter, on
atecount of the defective state of the turnip and grass
crops. Wool rather declines, .one but the mixed kinds
at en in request. In the Urited States of America. a
vast surplus of produce, little demand and no money.
The northern parts oldie FmroprsnCootinent exhibit a
similar picture. We have enitivated their teeters instead
of our own, and they are most anxiously waiting the op-
pottunity to deluge us with the produce. In the mean
time, the majority of our farmers are in a Mate truly de-
plorable, with utter ruin, lit,. the sword of Darn,frelee,
suspended over their heads hy a single hair. And, as
another nearly ettnal misfortune, these their Vadinsave
been for time led, or rather mandril and bewildered by
leaders, who are themselves equally bewildered, putting
their sole trust for relief in the delusive witchery of le-
gislative enactment, instead of taking the sound and
honest advice of the truly patriotic Coke of Holkham,
and going to the ruut of the evil—Middlesex. Oct. 26.

THe nntt.t. cvt.rt.as.—On Thursday last, at the
Olebe Lalid of Alacloneich, near 3larrooni, eultivated
ivy the Key. Somers Payne, a single labourer, within
the usual hours of working, dug the enormous quan-
tity of 8 harrels and 22 weights of potatoes, each
barrel containing 48 weights, anal each weight
211bs. The entire, on computation, will he fond to
make 609 stone, being a sufficient quantity of food fur
a family of four persons datriog the entire year, dug
in one (!ay, by a single man, with a common spade!
The above potatoes are denominated, Quarries, and
were planted two feet asunder without cutting the
seed, in drill•, •2,1 fret wide, and the cultivator is of
opinion, that from the peculiar growth of this potatoe
(in dusters), had the sets been made at the distance of
one instead of two feet, the produce would have been
nearly half as much again.

At the late Sessions fur this county. we stated that
Mr. Rogers, surgeon of Loot., wits convicted of an
assault of as iudeceut nature, on one of his 344itients,
the wife of a poor own named Kitt. In passing sen-
tence, on Friday, Mr. Tren.ayne, the Chairman. deli-
vered kvery impressive address to the ilefen,tant. Ile
*aid oat it was with much rrgrrt he fount) a man Ara
liberal profession, in such a situation. The deferolmt
was convicted of a base and gross outrage which vio-
lated all tleeency and worel feeling ; and which teas
one of the greatest breaches of professional duty and
comidenre it was possible for a wan in bib station to
commit. If the defendant possessed any portion of
proper feeling, no sentence in the power 4.f the Court
to inflict could be half so severe as the reflections of
his own whit. The Court was inform:A that up to
the period of his cu 11111 l itting the offence, the defend-
ant had borne an unexceptionable character ; and
that he hail mole a. compensation to the poor woman
he had injured to the fall stemma aif the large !Itie
which the Court intended to impose on !aim. Under
these rirennistattees, the Ilenc'd was disposed to deal
leniently with him, and, thereforn, the sentence of the
Court was, that he be imprisoned for one week in the
county gaol, and pay a fine of Is. to the hint.
