‘AS very. Gingular {wan was lately fhot by a 
fervantof Sir Wilfred Lawfon, Bart. of Bray- 
ton Houfe, which weighed 184]b. 1t mea~ 
-fured acrofs the wings g feet 2 inches, and if 
height 6 feet t inch. Itis of a very remark- 
able colour, and is fuppofed to be the largeft 
ever feen in Cumberland. 
Amongft the many improvements recently 
made at Carlifle, the weighing machine fit- 
ting up at the end of the main guard, and 
which is now nearly completed, is certainly 
not the leaft. A machine of this defcription 
has been long needed, as great impofitions 
have been praétifed by the colliers felling their 
coals by the cart-load, inftead of by weight. 
A part of Barrock-fide, in the Foreft of In 
glewood, in Cumberland, the only part in- 
clofed under the late aét, was laft year fown 
with wheat by James Graham, efq. of Bar- 
rock-Lodge: and which will this year pro- 
duce a moft luxuriant crop. Great praife is 
due to Mr. G. for his improvements, and it is 
hoped his patriotic example will be generally 
followed. 
At the late anniverfary meeting of the 
Society of Arts, J. C, Curwen, efg. of 
Workington, received the gold medal. His 
laft. communications to the Society have 
related to the. planting of .3,200,coo trees 5 
to the raifing of carrots, which are ftated 
to go as far as the produce of more than: 
twenty times the fame quantity of land, in 
Oats, in the feeding of horfes; and, to the 
fupplying the poor with new milk, at 2d. 
per quart, and yet fo as to leave a profit to 
the arable farmer, who fhall apply his greea, 
winter crops to the feeding of milch cows.—= 
The prefident remarked, that he had feven or 
eight times before delivered to Mr. Curwen, 
different honorary marks of the fociety’s ap- 
probation, but never with greater fatisfaction 
than on the prefent occafion, 
’ Many important improvements are about to 
take place at Carlile. The «walls are to be 
entirely takea down, by the reprefentations 
of General-Dirom to Government, and the 
wafte lands allotted to the Corporation; who, 
no doubt, will make fuchufe of them, as will 
tend to the benefit of the city, The county 
goal is to be enlarged, as likewile the very 
fpacious court yard for the ufe-of the debtors. 
Court-houfes are to be erefted in the citadel ; 
and the new bridge over Eden, of which Mr. 
Telford, has prépared a fuperb plan, is ina 
train of forwardnefs.—-When thefe-and other 
improvements thall bave been executed, Car- 
lifle, in point of convenience, elegance “of its 
public buildings, beauty and falubrity of the
