Tlie growing of hops in Devonshire, 

 ■which commenced only two years since, 

 lias tar exceeded expeclaiion ; the climate 

 and soil appear to be well calculated for 

 Iheir production. 



The di^tress for want of labour, in the 

 aaanufacturing towns of Devonshire, ex- 

 ceed* all former precedent. The India 

 Company, who for the last 20 years bought 

 about '<;10,000 long ells annually, have for 

 the last two or tliree years (inconsequence 

 of the high price of wool) reduced Ihcir

CORNWALL. 



At a late numerous meeting of the gen- 

 try and yeomanry of the county of Corn- 

 wall, at Bodmin, John Penhallow Peters, 

 esq. in the chair, it was resolved : — 



" That, a^ it is at all times incumbent oa 

 the legislature to encourage the agricul- 

 ture of the United Kingdom, so, under the 

 present alarming circumstances of the 

 country, it has become indispensable to the 

 prosperity of the nation, that every ob> 

 .stacic to the pingress of agriculture be, 

 as speedily as possible, removed. 



" That, at the pieseiit moment of general 

 distress, whatever tends to prevent the ad» 

 vancement of agricultural improvement, 

 and decrease the demand for agricultural 

 labour, adds to the already enormous num- 

 ber of paupers; consequently, augments 

 the pressure of the almost overwhelming 

 amount of poor-rates, by which the country 

 is burthcned, and, by paralizing the in- 

 dustry and dimiuishing the wealth of the 

 nation, is subversive of its best interests. 



" That, tbe piesenl system of Tythe Laws, 

 by its unequal operation, the uncertainty 

 in which it leaves the amount of the pay- 

 ment it imposes, and the expensive a«id 

 vexatious law-uits to which it gives rise, 

 greatly coutribuies to produce all the evils 

 above ennnierateil, aud is, therefore, inju- 

 rious to the welfare of the community at 

 huge."
