MONTHLY 
AGRICULTURAL REPORT. 
VBNUHE late hurricanes, which have oc- 
casioned so much mischief on the 
north coasts, were attended with heavy 
rains, extremely injurious to the remnants 
of harvest remaining abroad in the low and 
backward districts. Lincolnshire, the fens, 
and some parts of Yorkshire, have been 
deluged, and the beans and some oats re- 
maining abroad have been greatly dete- 
riorated in quality. Clover seed is the 
worst crop of the season, great part of it 
is entirely spoiled. A considerable part 
of the wheat and barley of the latter harvest 
sprouted in the sheaf, and is much dis- 
coloured. These local accidents, invariable 
in late seasons, have prevailed rather in an 
extraordinary degree during the present. 
It will require full the remainder of the 
current month, to clear the fields generally. 
Both Scotland and Ireland, as it appears, 
have to boast of superior crops of all kinds, 
both in quantity and quality, however 
abundant we may deem our own. We 
have now reached the period in which we 
can avail ourselves of nearly decisive tests, 
, and thence it seems generally acknow- 
ledged, that the wheat crop is a full ave- 
rage, no considerable part of it of very 
fine quality, and much which will require 
some months keeping for the improvement 
of the sample. Barley, a defective crop, 
very little of it of a fine mattery character, 
and scarcely any remaining old stock. Our 
letters still press upon us the idea of a 
very short stock of old wheat on hand, in 
which, as before stated, we do not entirely 
concur. The remunerating price of wheat 
has enabled the farmers to hold good part 
of their stock, whence prices may remain 
steady till towards Christmas, or through- 
out the spring, until the prospect of ano- 
ther abundant crop may reduce them. We 
say unto the country, it is full time that 
Britain grew a sufficiency of bread corn to 
feed its population, with some to spare. The 
crops of rape and cole are superabundant ; 
but in some districts, where the grass is 
equally so, the heavy rains have so beat 
down and soaked it, that it is likely to pro- 
duce little nourishment to cattle, and may 
prove fatal to sheep. Latter sown turnips 
have been forced too much into foliage by 
-the warm rains, in course, are at present 
deficient in the bulk ; but there will be 
no dearth of that root. Potatoes likewise 
will be fully adequate to the demand. Hops 
prove superior to expectation some time 
since since; but the avidity with which 
good samples are bought up shews the 
state of the case. The Farnham hop, as 
of old, bears the bell, making €12 per 
ewt. to the £8 of Essex. Fruit is de- 
fective both in quality and quantity, as 
was predicted ; but our neighbours of 
France opportunely supply us with apples, 
pears, and damsons. Wheat and winter 
tare sowing have proceeded expeditiously 
and happily on dry and good soil; on the 
reverse the farmers are very backward, 
and the lands difficult to work. Nothing 
in addition to our last Report need be said 
on the subject of cattle, horses, and sheep ; 
a vast and increasing population, with a 
state of manufacturing and commercial 
prosperity beyond all precedent, holds the 
price of the first necessaries still on the ad- 
vance. ‘The profusion of keep occasions a 
tantamount demand for lean stock. We 
rejoice to be informed that, the Essex 
subscription, which at first unaccountably 
lagged, is now proceeding with some de- 
gree of activity. It appears that we were 
the first to propose a public subscription 
for the sufferers in that heavy, and perhaps, 
within memory or record, unprecedented 
sudden calamity; and considering how 
trifling a sum individually, supposing the 
body of English farmers to subscribe, and 
the case may be, perhaps, their own, 
would fully indemnify the sufferers ; we say 
without hesitation, should they fail to be 
indemnified, our national character will 
stand degraded.
