Pfas- AAimlie. Many thanks for your note about our corre. 

 /pondenl by which wo shall profit hereafter.- We know o 

 nn new winter IPea. Any seedsman here, in the south of 

 BoRland, w 1 pwlde you "with a perfectly sale winter Pea 



Poultk?- ^ CBall. There is no difficulty in breeding between 

 the Muscovy drake and Ajlesbury ducks. The produce is a 

 law and rather awkward bird; it requires to be killed 

 Tounzer than other duck*, on account of the strong flavour 

 natural to the drake, which is unpleasant to most palates it 

 the bird is full grown.- J J. Where there is no local market 

 for surplus stock, the be*t method of ^sposintr of it is to 

 send it to a respectable salesman in Leadenhall market. The 

 difference between buying and selling is always great and 

 appears greater than it is in reality A dealer WiUjriwMi 

 buv that of which he stands in need ; but in buying live birds 

 he has to calculate the cost of keep, the uncertainty of sale, 

 and the chances of death. Mr. Sprigens, of Leadenhall mar. 

 ket is a very respectable and good salesman. J. baity, lio 

 Mountstreet.-R H. Some of the perfectly true Sebright 

 bantam cocks may be procured, say six or seven, by 

 applying to Mr. Wisbey, Borebam, near Chelmsfoid, fcssex. 

 They are the gold, tipped with black on the feathers.— 1 he 

 Sebright Bantam: W P. We cannot tell you the exact weight 

 that the thorough bred hens ought to be. We have one, very 

 small (thorough bred), and her weight is just £ of a lb. We 

 have had her in our possession several years, but can procuie 

 none others like her. W.K.-JOL. You have been deceived 

 in the strain. If the cock you have purchased has toe «.vj n K 

 feather," he is not what \ou represent him to be. W. K.— 

 SW Yes : the*e birds, if bred "in and in," are very hardy. 

 Ocrs winter as well as, if not better than, any of the so-called 

 " hardy fowl." We very rarely have a death in the family. 



W K. 

 Sea-sand : D E. You may store Carrots in dry sea-sand— or 



without any »-and at all. We pile them in heaps, just as we 

 do our Beets and Turnips, and they keep perfectly. We 

 should pit Potatoes in small quantities in a dry place ; a dry 

 floor, if secured from frost, is perfect of its kind. But the 

 more laborious methods of Mr. Cuthill will produce a 

 stronger plant. _

COVENT GARDEN, Oct. 4. 

 Peaches are nearly over. Pines and Grapes are abundant. 

 A few West Indian Pines still make their appearance. 

 Damsons are scarce, as are also Oranges and Lemon*. Nuts 

 remain nearly the same as quoted last week. Carrots, 

 Turnips, Cabbages, &c, are sufficient for the demand. Po- 

 tatoes are generally good in quality. Lettuces and other 

 salading arc sufficient for the demand. Mushrooms (bushels) 

 appear but slowly. Cut flowers consist of Heaths, Pelargo- 

 niums, Mignonette, Heliotropes, Stephanotis, Bignonia ve- 



nusta. and Provins Hoses.

• This storm came from the south-west, and from a warmer Vegetable Marrows, per doz,, 

 latitude; its approach, therefore, produced a warmer after- «.*».i-ai 

 noon, but having passed over this island to the eastward, the 

 body of the storm being in a colder latitude, the back current 

 oaoaed frost. 



As the season is approaching in which frosts occasion- 

 ally occur, it will be interesting to observe to what 

 extent they coincide with a rising barometer ; should 

 this coincidence be found generally to hold good, it may 

 be taken as a confirmation of the theory of rotatory and 

 progressive storms.

 the eastward ; but it lay a long way to tho northward, or 

 must have been but of small extent.

 Dorset Farm, Sept. 29.— We have now got the harvest all

 we could have wished ; and if we may judge from the appear- 

 ance of the crops, we must set them down as greatly above an 

 average. But as prices have fallen so much, there is little 

 inducement to bring them to the proper test (the »H«.-v,;r,«
