what may be fometimes feen on the ftones in 
the fields ; this feems, however, to be only 
the habitation of the infeéts, which exift in 
‘millions wherever they have once lodged 
themfelves. On bruifing the efflorefcente- 
like matter between the fingers, a deep red- 
coloured fluid, like blood, is exprefied, and 
which probably is of that nature, Already 
have feveral valuable orchards been much in- 
ured by this infe&t, which corrodes the ap- 
pleetrees in fuch a manner as, at laf, com- 
pletely to deftroy their organization and to 
kill them, without the proprietors, many of 
them at leaft, even once fufpecting the caufe. 
The following recipe is then given, of a 
eheap compofition, which has been found ef- 
fectually to anfwer the purpofe; To one 
hundred gallons of human urine, and one 
buthel of lime, add cow-dung in a fufficient 
quantity to bring it to the confiftence of paint. 
With this compofition anoint the trees. If 
the white efflorefcence-like fubftance in 
which the infe&ts are lodged, has ~made 
its appearance, it fhould previeufly be brufh-. 
ed off. 
A print-field, which, is the only one in the 
@ounty of Weitmoreland, has been lately be- 
gun at Kendal. The firf block, preparatory 
to the undertaking was laid there, on Wed- 
nefJay Auguft 14, by Mr. J. Barrow, one of 
the proprietors. 
_ An occafional correfpondent of the Cum- 
berland Packet, inacorreét, but defultory, 
defcriptive fetch of a tour he had lately 
made, fpeaking of Whitehaven, which he 
had vifited, for a few days, calls it, the Em- 
porium of Cumberland and Weftmoreland, 
and the moftimportant fea-port inthe north- 
ern counties, next to Newcaftle and Liver- 
pool. The townof Whitehaven, he proceeds, 
probably fo called from its not being an In- 
corporation, or even a parifh, is admirably 
laid out. It muft have been built, not only 
from a plan, but from a good plan; for the 
ftreets are difpofed in a manner at once calcu- 
lated to produce the fineft effe& in appearance, 
and to make the refidence the moft falubrious 
to the inhabitants. St. Bees, a village, is its 
alma-mater. After pointing out the conve- 
niences which the town of Whitehaven pof- 
feffes, in its prefent ftate, he goes oa to enu- 
merate the eafy methods by which it miy'ft be 
improved, by a prudent ufe of the advantages 
ef fituation. Thefe advantages are a great 
number of hands, viz. women and children 
vo be employed in the different branches and 
eperations—plenty of coals of the beft quality 
for fuch purpofes, the adjoining country, 
in a variety of fituations, affords abundant op- 
portunities for carrying on fuch works as re- 
quire aconftant fupply of water. In fhort, 
every requifite for fpinning, weaving, print- 
ing, bleaching, é&c. isto be found here; and 
there is, befides, at Whitehaven, an excellent. 
and capacious harbour, whofe convenience is 
immenfe, the navigation into and out of it 
being much better and fafer than at many‘ports 
which might be mentioned. Some improye- 
Cumberland and Weftmoreland. 277 
ments have been lately fuggefted, chiefly with - 
a view toitsenlargement. If the former con- 
dition of fome other places be compared with 
their prefent circumftances, they will be found 
to owe more to their fpiric of enterprifé and 
the induftry with whic they have perfee 
vered, than to any real advantages of fituae 
tion, and that thefe fituations are much ir. 
ferior to thofe of the place he is {peaking of, 
which as already obferved, furnifhes the chieg 
requifites in abundance,
