INCREASE OF SWINE.— During the past year, farm
stock of all descriptions was largely cultivated, the im-
proved circumatanees of the farmer giving him the means
and the spirit to raise - the best class of pork, whether in

the number of swine reared by our farmers, a pretty good
proof may be found in the fact that, during the fortnight
ending Saturday, 21,000 pigs were disposed of at the mar-
kets in town. Prices have not been affected by that vast
