lyS OF THE USE 



When the liflle croiv was driven out of Vir- 

 ginia, and that at the expence of feveral tuns 

 of gold, the inhabitants would willingly have 

 brought them back again at double the price, 

 as we find by profefibr Kalm. The vultures 

 in Cairo are invited yearly, and daily to re- 

 main there, as do6lor HaiTelquift relates in 

 A61. Sac. reg. Scient. Stoekhol. 1751. p. 196, 

 et fcqu, Thefe creatures of prey cleanfe the 

 ground from carcafes, and make it wholefome, 

 and pure, and befides they ferve to keep up a 

 due proportion between animals, fo that one 

 fort may not flarve the reft. 



The vulvar think, and thofe who think 

 themfelves wifer than the vulgar, make no 

 fcruple to fay -, let him ivbo has nothing to da 

 employ himjelf in hunting after mojfes and fiies. 

 By which they would infmuate, that fearch- 

 ing after the minute plants, and animals is 

 unbecoming, or at leaft unnecefTary for a ra- 



and grafs to fuch a cfegree, that i myfelf have fecn a piece of 

 pallure land, where you might turn up the turf with yo»r 

 foot. 



Mr. IMatthevvs a very obferving and excellent farmer, of 

 Wargrove in Berklhire, told me that the rooks one year, 

 while Jiis men were houghing a turnep field, fat down in 

 part of it, where they were not at work, and that the crop 

 was very fine in that part; whereas in the other part there 

 we/e no lurnei s that year.
