HLY REPORT FOR DECEMBER. 
/The late inTENSE FROST, which came on before the ground was fufficiently co. 
vered with {now, excited no fmall degree of alarm for the TURNIPS and LATTER 
SOWN WHEATS. ‘Ihe former, in diftricts where they are drilled, and the large 
turnip cultivated, particularly thofe early fown, have, doubrlefs, fuffered conGderably. 
The wHeats, however, fince the thaw, have again becun to revive, and apparently 
have received but little injury, On the whole, the young wears, that are above 
ground, look tolerably ; and as the late high prices have occafioned larger quantities to 
be fown, the value next year may be expected to be ftill farther diminithed, 
The Soil having, during the month, been locked up from the plough, the chief 
employnrent of the hufbandman has Leen THRESHING. Large fupplies of every fore 
of grain have, in confequence, been brought to market, anda ccafiderable reduétion of 
price has been fele over the whole ifland.. The AVERAGE PRICE cf WHEAT, by the 
jafi récurn for Eneland and Wales, was 588. 3d. per quarter.—It-is here worthy of 
pbferyation, that THRESHING MACHINES are daily coming into more general ufe, 
particularly in the North of England. The expericace of every intelligent farmer 
proves the fuperior utility of this mode of threfhing. The bufinefs being performed 
in a much greater degree of perfection, and at lefs than half the expence. 
The reports fem every part of the kingdom, and particularly thofe from Scotland, 
defcribe, in very alarming terms, the aétual fearcity of CATTLE. _BLACK CATTLE, 
in particular, ferch enormous prices. At the late Falkirk Fair, in North Britain, 141, 
a head was given for two-years old Stouts. Beer, in confequence, muft nearly double 
Its price to the confumer in-the courfe of next year, or the purchafers of cattle at the 
prefent fairs and markets muf be loters. Atthis time it fells at Invernefs at 6d. per |b 
and in Neweate-market from 8d. to 10d. per lb. Fy ‘ 
_ The demand for SHEEP, and the prices of MUTTON, keep-pace with thofe of cattle 
and beef. So great is the demand, that inthe Highlands of Scotland almoft every 
Wedder is fold for the next feafon ; and even for the next year’s Lambs much money is 
actually already advanced. In the markets at Invernefs, MUTTON fetches». in thofe 
at Edinburgh 5d. and 6d. and in thofe of London 7d. and ¥d. nea 
- Pres, as well for the butcher as for feeding, are high, and are likely to continue fo. 
Horses are the orly article of live-ftock at all reafonable in price. 
_ . Wot continues as before. | 
~ The duty on Hops amounts only to 79,400!.; the demand for them has confequente 
Wy increafed, Bags, Kent, fell from 695, to 9633 Pockets from 809. to 1125.
