YORKSHIRE, 
The wolds in this county now prefent a 
fcene of continued agricultural improvement, 
that is highly gratifying to every lover of his 
country. The lower grounds, to a vaft ex- 
tent, are draining, while all the “open fields 
above the hills are enclofing as faft as poflible. 
Lands that two years agowere not let at above 
five fhillings an acre, are now letting at fif- 
teen fhillings. It fhould feem from this, 
that in the fpace 6f a few years, the old- 
fafhioned fheepwalks will be feen no more! 
It appears that a charity has been eftablith- 
ed, for fome time paft, at York, entitled, the 
York Emanuel, for.the benefit of minifters, 
and the wives, widows, and children of mi- 
nifters, in any part of the kingdom, labour- -
