A'lJd-Lo'ihlan ^larterly Report. 



The month of February, although variable, continued mild; and 

 fome people were induced not only to drill beans, but ah'o to fow oats ; 

 and where the fields were got finlfhed before the fucceeding adverfe wea- 

 tlier commenced, the young y'^iits have come up apparently without 

 injury. But on the i;th of March, a fevere blaft from the ea!l took 

 place, which continued incefTantly for three days, and rendered the 

 country wetter than it had been fjcce the memorable 1799. Frotl, hail, 

 fnow, and rain have faccveded each other fo frequently, that there has 

 been great difficulty in getting the feed depofited in any thing like to- 

 lerable order, and in foir.e places :'t is not yet entirely over. 



Vegetation has met with a fevere check, which is the almoft certain 

 confequent of a mild winter, and pren:iature growth. The w'heat, how- 

 ever, was forward, and has hitherto withftood the effe^s of fuch wea- 

 ther better than might be expedled. Little or no barley is yet Town 

 any where. 



It was flared in lafl report, that thofe would do well v/ho bror.aht a-; 

 little grain to market (under the then circumftances) as poiTible ; and 

 events already begin to evince the propriety of the remark. Old grain 

 is in demand every feafon ; but few years can boall of fuch quality a? 

 the wheat of laft year's growth. Hence, it is evident, that before next 

 year's wheat can be fit for ufc, oh^ wheat mull become an article of con- 

 llderable value. Indeed, It may be laid down as a fixed rule, that when 

 the grain of any particular year is etnincut in quality, it will ulliniately 

 bring its correfpondent price. 



The Hack-yards are much lefs than ufual — fomc of them near empty ;
