calculated, that the crops of hay, as well as 

 y vegetables, will be very prolific. There is 



the most flattering prospects, that the latter 

 •■est will be crowned with equal success, since 

 earth has been so completely saturated with

 efits, we have an additional blessing, in the 

 il degree of health which generally prevails in
