It was agreed to ofier the same premiums 
to the public next year as last year, omitting 
two, viz. that tor the best crop of Norfolk 
turnips in March, and that for feeding horses. 
As two horses were lately at plough near 
Norwich, a flight of bees alighted on the ani¬ 
mals, and not being sunered to swarm in their 
usual way, stung the horses in so violent a 
manner, that one died the followirg day ; 
the ocher was preserved by applying cloths 
dipped in salt o: tartar and cold water.

i. school, at Ipswich, by the Education Society', 
■with upwards of two hundred children, upon 
the plan of Mr. Joseph Lancaster, who kindly 
assisted the Society, with two )Oung gentle¬ 
men from the Borough School, to arrange the 
hojB. And at a meeting of the Committee 
on the 2d of August, the master reported, 
that the boys had made as rapid an improve¬ 
ment in reading, writing, and arithmetic, as 
could have been expected ; that they were 
regular in their attendance at school, and at 
their respective places of worship on the 
Lord’s day. In addition to the school already 
established for boys upon the Lancasterian 
plan, a new edifice is erected here at the ex- 
pence and under the immediate patronage of

In the oOth year of his age, I. Wm B'.oo.m- 
field, of Hemington, who, without any pre¬ 
vious indisposition, dropped the saw from his 
hand whi.e he was at work, and ii'istantly 
expired. He was brother to Robert B oom- 
fleld, the Suffolk poet, and has left a wife and 
nine children. The deceased was through 
life a journeyman bricklayer; the family are 
poor and destitute. There never lived a m*re 
indulgent father, or a more tender husband , 
he resided in the house in which he was born 
through life, and few village swains have 
evinced such strength of mind. When he 
produced his anthems, some ot the first men 
in the musical world expressed their astonish¬ 
ment, that a man w ithout any musical educa¬ 
tion (as they term it) and unacquainted with 
keyed instruments, should have acquired se 
much knowledge of the science; they kir.dly 
rectified the bass for him, and by a handsome 
list of subscribers, his family received very 
great relief. But his favouiite pursuit-was 
mechanism j'ali his leisure hours for a num¬ 
ber of years he spent in various schemes, and 
he has bow the model of a pump nearly com¬ 
plete, which he lately walked up to London 
to exhibit. Mr. Boyce advanced him a sura 
of money on the strength of it; but death has 
stopped him, and svhether he woulo ever have 
succeeded as a mechanist, or not, he certainly 
possessed unusual mental powers, coniioered 
as an uneducated obscure cottager.
