OUR late accounts from every part of the island, and from Ireland, are to the full as favourable as we have stated them in our two preceding numbers. In those diftricts where the rains have prevailed to the greateft length, and this has been chiefly in the Weft and in Wales, no confiderable damage to the flock and crops has enfued, nor any irremediable hindrance of bufinefs. One great, general, and pleafing feature, is, the very confiderable breadth of wheat fown, and well got in. It has, therefore, every where, a luxuriant appearance. Letters, which, fome weeks fince, we had the opportunity of feeing from the Continent, make the fame favourable report; and, in the ftrongeft probability, there has not been within the memory of man any thing like fo large a breadth of land covered with wheat throughout Europe as at the prefent season.

Fog, clovers, rape, and particularly winter tares, are a very flourishing crop on the ground. The fpring tillage has been very good generally, and the lands have turned up better than could have been expected in the most poachy foils: on the drieft, the farmers are engaged very brifkly in fowing their Lent corn. Young ftock feem to have continued very healthy through the feafon; nor have we yet heard any but favourable accounts of the lambs, of which there is likely to be a very great and increased stock this year, particularly in the North.

Letters from various parts of SCOTLAND confirm the account that the laft year's crops of wheat and barley were confiderably beyond average ones, and that sheep have been on the increase for the three laft seasons. The New Leicesters are making their way in va

rious parts of Scotland; the tups, chiefly of Mr. Culley's breed, fuperior perhaps to their originals. All ftock gradually declines in price; and many drovers and graziers have fuffered heavily. The rents are beginning to decline, and it is fuppofed, in the course of the year, will fuffer a very confiderable abatement in the new leafes. Many pigs have of late been bred in Scotland, and confiderable quantities of pickled pork have found the way to London from the neighbourhood of Berwick, and felling at a moderate price. In WALES an immenfe overflow of pig-meat; in course, plenty of flore pigs: fheep and lambs have fuffered more from the wetness of the season in Wales than in any other quarter.

In ESSEX, SUFFOLK, NORFOLK, and all the great wheat counties, the broad caft wheat has been generally fown too thick; a common fault. The POTATOE OAT, the best we have, gains ground univerfally.

In IRELAND, the greatest encouragement continues to be given to agriculture by the landed proprietors and the focieties, that was ever afforded in any time or country; nor does any country, at this inftant, hold out fo favourable profpects to either farmers, land-ftew ards, agricultural mechanics, or intelligent and capable labourers, as the fifter kingdom. Hortes at this feason, and under exifting circumitances, dear in courfe. In the West and North, they are fed with barley inftead of oats, in these plentiful times for barley. Store bullocks rifing in price: ftore sheep faid to remain ftill cheap. At Smithfield this day (March 23d), plenty of beef: price nearly the fame as laft week: mutton rather more fcarce; 4s to 4s 8d per ftone. Pork laft Monday, at Barnet, as plentiful and cheap as before; the beft dairy meat scarcely reached 4s 4d per ftone, which we give as a hint to those who buy of the cutting butchers. Town bacon, 5s per ftone. Irish ditto, 4s 2d.
