GGNCULTURE. [Extract from Arthur Young's F'al'mer'sCalendar.] STOCKING FARMS. THE benefit to be derived from the occupation of land, depends so much on the farmer commanding the requisite capital, that it is extremely necessary for the jonng begin- ner to be well advised on this essential point. If he is fix- ed in business by some experienced relation, he will not want the proper instruction; but as many ad venturers (as they may be called) are every day making efforts to try their fortune in the culture of the earth, and many gentle- men taking farms into their hands, sometimes without due "consideration of the necessary expeiices, it is proper to mi- nute a few observations on the subject. Thirty years ago, the sum that was actually appropriated to stocking a farm, varied from 31. to 51. an acre; and it v;;s a general idea, that the latter sum was sufficient for 'any farm, part arable and part grass, of no uncommon fer- tility. Rich marshes were, of course, excluded in the ♦?a!co!atioi. and light flock farms were often stocked for 31. per acre. But these matters are now greatly changed Tents are much increased tithes are compounded at a higher payment; poor-rates are enormously risen all sorts of implements comprehended in the article wear and tear, are thirty or forty per cent. dearer; labour is in many dis- tricts doubled the prices of cattle and sheep are greatly advanced; so that,-at present, the same farm which at that period would have been very well stocked, and the first year's expences provided for, at the rate of 51. per acre, now demands 71. to 81, per acre. But it is to be remem- 'bered, that in all such estimates it is necessary to suppose that every implement bought in is new, and that the live ftock be good of the sort, and that the first year's expences be provided for, though a portion of the crop may come in before the whole payment is made. A man cannot be at his ease if he does not thus provide nor will he be able to make that profit by his business with a small capital which will attend the employment of a larger. By profit, I would he understood to mean a percentage on his capital, which is the only satisfactory way of estimating it. If, by stock- ing a tarmwith 51. per arcre, he makes 7 or 8 percent, pro- tit; and by stocking in the proportion of 81. per acre, he makes ten per cent, (and this difference will, I believe, of- ten be found), it must be sufficiently apparent that the loss fey the smaller stock is a serious evil. It will depend much on situation and local circumstances the benefit of procur- ing manures, or Jitter to make dung, may, in some places, be very great,,in others much less; but not to be able to profit by every faveurabte opportunity that may attend the Spot on which a farmer is fixed, must be highly disadvan- -t L I i, tageous. To irrigate Jand is an expensive operation but to omit or postpone it, for want of monev for the under- taking, i.s to lose perhaps the capital advantage of a farm. Cases of this sort might be greatly multiplied; and there is not one that docs not call on the farmer for an ample capital. Of .all farms, a warren is hired wÍlh the SllJa llest capital; but there are marshes in Lincolnshire stocked at the rate of above 301. per acre. The annual expence of many hop-grounds amounts to tJOi. and the capital to above 601. If a farmer does not make 10 per cent. on his capital, he | must either have a bad farm or bad management, or the 'tunes must be unfavourable. He ought to make from I b el ve to fifteen per cent. Some farmers make more, when com is at a fair price. SITTING THE FI.OCK. In stocking the farm, our young farmer will have to dc- termine on the breed and system of sheep. Ishaiiiicre 'Çfrvc one caution, and that is, to be very careful that he do tio< enter into such expences in buying fashionable breeds, ssmaycrippienisexertionsinmoreneccssaryobjects. Y .)ects. SERVANTS. This is the time that farming servants are chiefly hired, ]' and the attentive cultivator should consider well before he determines on the number or the quality of his servants. ■A considerable business requires the of a bai- liff; and as such a servant may have material effects V. the conduct of a business, it-i-always in a farmer tu consider the nature of his own case well, if his farm is extremely large, if his culture is complex-, or if he is absent a part of the year; in these ci the employment of a bailiff may be absolUieh. necessary but there are so many sorts of bailifls, that a man may qualify the measure, almost into that of hiring a common servant. In a large farm, his business is to be on the watch on all thc people, of whatever sort, employed lie must not work, which cunllnes h ill] to one place. This'part of ins employment renders it necessary that he should be of a rauk something above the best sort of servants and workmen; for if one iroin that class has the command given him, be will n6f be well obeyed. A bailiff should ever preserve a due authority over ali the people employed; aud/for this purpose, his411 aster would find it very useful to allow him to hire his own servants and labourers, or at least to give him liberty to turn any of them away. Respecting market transactions, all buying, selling, bar- gaining, and receiving money, it is highlyadvisaGie for the master to do all business of that sort it is dangerous to trust these servants too much not for fear of their mu- ning away with money; but numerous money transactions, of which it is impossible the master can have an entire check, have at least a tendency to give opportunities of dishonesty, which may have a bad effect; and niaikct meet- ings, for the transaction of this sort of business, are likewise too apt to hazard the sobriety of a bailiff. As to other servants, the principal are the ploughmen for on them depends, in a good measure, the success of all crops. Ih a large business, it will he very difficult to have all good hands but a man should aim at it as much as pos- sible for a bad ploughman makes very indifferent work, but skims the land in an irregular manner, and rice balks half he goes over. If' no bailiff is kept, you must he. more attentive in hir- ing ploughmen to chuse kitcli as will be obedient without that round of murmuring and complaints so often heard from these men; if the people be not docile, you wiil find great difficulty in having the land managed in the manner you like best. Shepherds, hog-herds, cow-herds, driving- boys, and ali other servants, are howhited; and as cha- racters are scarcely ever given among farmers, it much de- pends on your quick judging of the accounts the fellows give of themselves and. every man is a ph,ysiognomist. Some great farmers board their men-servants and boys with their bailiff: it is one way of lessening trouble, and with one bailiff in twenty may be a proper arraugemeut; but far better for the farmer to have all his people under rhis own eye he ought to consider himself as amiwerable, in "some degree, for their religious and their moral conduct; to keep them regularly at their church, and, as much as possible, to prevent ail swcaring and profane language, for he may depend on finding servants, thus kept to a de- ccnt, orderly, and suller conduct, proving much more use- ful assistants than an ill-regulated, profligate set: it is to be hoped that our farmer has, higher and better motives, but in a mere worldly view, he will soon he convinced of this fact. If he keeps a bailiff of the better sort, and single, there are many advantages in having him cat at the far- mer's table. Is it more advantageous to keep many servants and few labourers, or many labourers and few servants ? Twenty years ago I believe the latter was more profitable, but at present the reverse. The price of day labour, and the dif- ficulty of getting it, are increased more than the wages of the servants and the expences of house-keeping and there is an advantage, not a trifling one, in the farm-house being made a market for many of the inferior articles of the farm-produce. The certainty of commanding hands is a great object. However, much will depend on the local circumstances and population of the district; and much on the due regulation of the farmer's family. FAMILY ARRANGEMENT. Many accidental circumstances, gradually bring into a certain train the common habits of domestic life; but it would often be more advantageous to lay down a plan to he pursued within doors as well as without: such ideas may not always be practicable, but the mere aim will not be without its use. Our young farmer, on entering his farm, must necessarily arrange his plan of life and house- keeping, a subject which should not be wholly omitted, yet admits but a few cursory hints that may possibly give a turn to his reflections, and being properly worked on in his mind, may possibly produce a beneficial effect on his con- duct. It is not every man that has the power of thinking to any marked utility but he whose mind is inquisitive, may think to advantage on every subject. A prudent eco- nomy, free from all sordid avarice, will by every one be admitted as right; but it demands some reflection on enter- ing life, or a farm, so to arrange every day circumstances, that they shall flow from the plan adopted; or at least that such plan shall have no tendency to counteract. In regard to house-keeping, the safest way is to assign a stated week- ly sum for it, which should on no account be exceeded. An annual one for his own dress and personal expences; the same for his wife and young children. And he should, in prudence, keep the whole allotted expenceso much within his probable income, as to possess an accumulating fund for contingencies, children, &c. &c. And if he expects the blessing of the Almighty on his industry, he will not for- get the poor in such distribution I do not mean by rates but by charity and this hint demands one observation a very material evil attending the support of the poor by rates, is the natural tend( azy they have essentially to lessen, if not to cut up charity by the root; that they do this in many hearts cannot be doubted; but it is a horrible and a national evil. Let our young farmer accustom his miud to very different reflections, remembering that what he pays in poor-rates he is forced to pay, and that it is a part of his calculation in stocking his farm: if he expects to prosper (but not from that motive only, or he might as well close his purse) let him so accustom lnmself to slIch offices and as- sistance to his poor neighbours, whoever they may work with, as to gain a habit of reaping pleasure from his free benevolence. In such calculations as I have hinted at, he may safely estimate his profit at 10 percent, on his capital; from 40001. his income derived from his farm ought to be 4001. a year, He should Jay up 501. and as much more as his better interest may permit. lo-expend this in eitra im- provements, may be the most advantagous investment, pro- vided he owns his farm, or has a long lease, not otherwise. To attend markets and a lew fairs, is a necessary part of the farmer's business but to a young man it is a very dan- gerous part; it is too apt to give the evil habits of drinking and dissipation evil company is every where to be found, and many a farmer has been ruined by a want of a careful selection of his acquaintance, and by not avoiding the con- traction of habits which cannot be indulged with safety. As a safeguard against all evils ot this tendency, an habi- tual attention to the duties of religion, will have more effi- cacy than all the philosophic morality which so much abounds upon the tongues ot many by religion, I mean that of the national church, the most excellent that has been any where established for the instruction of the hu- man species. He can have 110 true friend that will not ad- vise him to keep the Sabbath pioublyand strictly himself, and make his family do the same many a judge lias traced the origin of crimes that have brought labourers to the gal- lows, to Sabbath-breaking; and if the source of failures among farmers were as well explored, they would be traced to the same spring. Serve God on Sunday as you serve yourself on Monday if you are a pagan, a deist, or moral philosopher, you are, to a certain degree, in reason, an- swerable for the paganism, deism, or moral philosophy of your children and servants; if a christian, you are surely the same for their Christianity; you may gain by this, but canot lose. The fashionable sheep-shearings, farming clubs, societies, &c. render another remark not absolutely unnecessary a steady careful old farmer may not be the worse for mixing a good deal In company of a much higher rank than his own but a young man with a small degree of animation may suffer by it. His eye and his mind become insensible accustomed to objects and habits 01 loving to which lie was before a stranger tc steer clear of all imitation is not a very easy task, but it is an extremely necessary one if af- ter an excursion which has carried him into great, and what is called good company, he returns home, not quite so well sattsiied with home as he was before, he has contracted a taint that may be worse than the scab among his sheep. fhe caustic of wholesome self-discipline becomes neces- sary. He should guard carefully agaiqst one of the most natural propensities, or his pleasures (partial)y assuming somewhat of the garb of business) will prove like the pleasures of so many other classes, treacherous dissipation, and lay a foundation for uneasiness and regret.

;w MONTHLY AGRICULTURAL REPORT. During this month much wheat has been put into the ground, which, from the fineness of the season was never in better order for its reception. The extent of land crop- ped with this sort of grain is unusually great in many dis- tflcts on this account. The price of this grain has, in the I course of the month, experienced some depression. Where the potatoe crops have begun to be taken up they have in general appeared to turn out well, and they are in most cases better than usual, especially on the more I moist soils. Much after-grass hay or rouen has been cut in different districts near the capital, and secured in the first condition. The grass in many districts looks well, notwithstanding the continued dryness of tlie-A.eadier but on the drier soils it has been much injured. The prices of lean and fat stock still keep up. MONTHLY COMMERCIAL REPORT. The safe arrival of so many foreign fleets, through dan- gers from storms and hostile ships of war, about the be- ginning of the month which now closes, had an influence the most favourable and animating on the British trade in all the great em poria in this her East India nor West India produce has since fallen in price, great as is tllp quantity of goods which the fleets have brought home. As the conquests of Britain are extended in the East; as British habitudes and manners obtain still more and more a preference among the Oriental nations under our dominion as those prejudices which held the Chinese averse to our customs, and to the use of our manufactures, are gradually overcome the sales of English goods in India and China become constantly larger; and there is good reason for thinking that the quantity of goods of British produce and manufacture to be exported within the next twelve months to India, will, in comparison of the general circumstances and demands, be more considerable than that of any former year within our remembrance. In the West Indies, the abstraction of St. Domingo, in great part, from the sphere of cultivation; the increasing expence and scarcity of negro labourers; the taxes with which the culture 01 the plantations is, for its own defence, necessarily burthened with other circumstances strongly affecting the state of the produce and the markets ope- rate in such a manner as to leave us little or no room to hope for any speedy or considerable diminution in the prices of those important articles of subsistence which we derive from them. Sugar, coffee, chocolate, cocoa, cotton, articles of such peculiar excellence for the accommodation of human life in general, are now so suited to European habits, and are, in the extension of their use, so very sa- lutary, that there is nothing more to be regretted than that we should still be unable to procure them otherwise than under the expence and disadvantages of the work of slaves, unabbreviated labour, the power of monopoly in the hands of the growers and sellers, and all the other- uncertainties which now so continually enhance the prices of articles which have become necessaries almost as much as bread or milk. The trade between the Anglo-Americans of the United States and the Chinese is augmented. Within these few last years it has been observed, that there is a demand in China for unwrought cotton, and an exportation of this commodity from India to the Chinese marts. The Anglo- Americans therefore propose, in their next adventures to the East, to freight in part with cotton for the markets of China, and to spare their bullion. For the present year the India trade of the Americans has drained the States of their bullion to such a degree, as to excite throughout the country considerable discontent on account of the scarcity of coin.—The Osage Indians have however promised (for a supply of 500 muskets) to furnish the people of the United States with abundance of gold and silver—to be taken by force from their neighbours the Spaniards. Spain is at present in the most inconvenient and dis- tressing want of those goods which it has been hitherto accustomed to obtain from its commercial intercourse with Great Britain. The cargoes ready to be sent out to that country would have been received with extraordinary joy in the Spanish ports, and sold to the greatest advantage. But an embargo has just with-held our merchants from seeking that profit at the hazard of confiscation and de- tention in the Spanish ports, at which their vessels must have been sent out. The Baltic trade has become somewhat more brisk and active than it was two or three months sincg. At St. Pe- tersburgh, the prices of most of the articles for exportation have risen. The exchange becoming continually more fa- vourable to Russia, is now at from 311- to 32 pence per rouble. Hemp, flax, tallow, and all the staple exports from Russia are somewhat higher. Those vessels for which there was despair of freight, are now obtaining freights without difficulty. And while the trade from Odessa and Archangel is sufficiently lively, that also from St. Petersburgh is, all the whole, not likely to prove, for the present season, unprosperous. The corn-trade, for the countries on the Baltic, is this year sufficiently brisk. That interval of bad weather which took place in the end of wheat harvest in England, and the rise produced in the prices of grain in our markets by the new Corn Act, had the effect to occasion orders from England for the purchase of grain at all the customary marts for it in the Baltic, that have occasioned a general enhancement in the prices over all the north of Europe. The produce of the whale, the pilchard, and the com- mencing herring fishery, is this year plentiful. The rates of insurance to the Mediterranean have been within these last four or five days considerably and ne- cessarily enhanced. A large quantity of Spanish wool was last week imported into London from Bilboa. The trade of Whitehaven has acquired much new activity in consequence of changes by the union, in the relations between the trade of Great Britain and that of Ireland. It is expected that a prodigious quantity of business will be transacted at the Michaelmas fair, now abo'ut to com- mence at Leipsic. Mr. Solomon Dawson and Mr. Isaac Coxe, in Maryland, North America, have invented an engine for cutting off the ears of grain in the field, and at the same time col- lecting them, so as wonderfully to abridge the labour of reaping. The trade carried 011 between this country and America is immense. At Liverpool, seldom less than 60 vessels are loading at one time for that quarter; and the commerce carried on from London, Hull, and Glasgow, is proportion- ably great. From the latter port two vessels sailed in the last week of August for New York, which, among many other things, had on board 184/215 yards of cottons and muslins; 442,849 yards of printed cottons and linens; 255,735 yards of British and 58,975 of" Irish plain linen. Excepting in the midst 01 winter, there seldom passes a week but one or two vessels sail from Greenock to the western world and at the above-mentioned period, ten or twelve vessels were loading for America. The raw ma- terials, of which the above two cargoes were composed, would not cost the nation more than 50001. iiii(I they arc worth above 100,&)0l. The total value of the exports from Great Britaiifs to America amount to between eight and nine millton$"fter annum, though in the year 1774 they did not excced one million and a half. Including those from the British settlements in the East and West Indies, they will be little short of twelve millions. The trade of the Swedes greatly exceeds that of the Danes And Russians; and under the advantages of the present war has been for some time exceedingly active and prosperous. HEREFORD MUSIC MEETING. The Triennial Meeting of the Three-Choirs of Hereford, Gloccster, and Worcester, commenced with divine service in the Cathedral, on Wednesday the 26th ult. when an appropriate sermon was delivered by the Rev. Dr. Ford, one of the Canons Residentiary, from the text of St. James—" Pure and undefiled religion is this: to visit the widows and fatherless in affliction." The church was crowded with genteel company and the anthems and chorusscs were executed in the finest style. Nearly 160). was collected at the doors. The ordinary in the town-i hall was well attended, and had the Bishop in the chair.— The concert at the music-room in the evening afforded the' happiest opportunity to Mrs. Billington and Miss Tennsmt, to display their admirable powers. The excellence of the = farmer-is. universally Vkmwlerlged, -whilst the inlittaged and increasing merits of the latter almost excite an honour- able rivalry. The room was fully attended. On Thursday morning a selection of snored music was performed in the cathedral.—The Hon. Mr. Cocks pre- sided at the ordinary that dny..—The music-room in the evening was literally thronged 650 tickets were sold for admission and, with the performers and attendants, the whole company numbered almost 1000. Several ladies in the upper part of the room fainted from the excessive heat, but by proper attention were soon restored. The performances -(vent off with the same eclat as before and the dancing was continued after the concert uutil three in the morning. The Messiah, as usual, attracted the most numerous company in the cathedral on Friday morning. Its gran- deur as a composition need not be detailed and ample justice was rendered in the performance.—Somerset Da- vies, Esq. of Croft Castle, was president this day at the ordinary.—A grand miscellaneous concert in the evening concluded the festivity. On the whole, it is not too much to say, that the cele- bri:y of this year was never excelled (perhaps equalled) in all the requisites of such a meeting; and the charity was befriended in proportion. The collection exceeded 5001. and the whole conduct of the business, whether considered in the choice and arrangement of the performances, or in the selection of the performers, both vocal and instru- mental, reflected the highest credit on the abilities and judgment of Mr. CoyJe. The following gentlemen were drank to, as stewards elect for the next meeting at Hereford Su H. Hoskyns, Bart. Rev. Mr. Lilly, I W. Greenly, Esq. Rev. Mr. Baugh, J. G. Cotterell, Esq. Rev. Mr. Underwood, juo. I And the following were the stewards appointed for the I meeting next year at Glocester I Lord Viscount Dursley, Lord Bishop of Glocester, Lord Edward Somerset, Rev. Mr. Hippisley, Sir Wm. Guise, Bart. Rev. Mr, Willes, About the middle of April last, a circular letter was written by Mr. Yorke, then one of the Secretaries of State, to the Lords Lieutenants of the different counties, iutimat- ing that ten days additional pay, at the rate of a shilling a day, would be given to each non-commissioned officer or private volunteer, 011 performing a certain number of addi- tional days exercise, without leaving their homes. The pe- riod for the performance of this additional exercise, was limited to the two months immediately succeeding the is- suing of the circular letter. Within these few days, a si- milar letter has been transmitted to the Lord Lieutenants, extending the period for this service to the six next months. The following animadversion, which closes the .approval of a General Court Martial, lately holden on an officer of high rank, is so honourable to the feelings of our amiable and beloved Sovereign, that we take a pleasure in laying it before the public :—" His Majesty, in adverting particu- larly to the 9th article of charge, of which the Court Mar- tial has, in part, found the prisoner guilty, was' pleased to direct, thar the Judge Adcocate's letter should express the wish of his Majesty, that the Lieutenant-Colonel, in his zeal for the service, had conducted the command with more temper than in some instances he appears to have done as also, that it shouid declare his Majesty's high disapproba- tion of striking a soldier d ::ny time, and more especially when under- arms, although tho blow, as in the case adduced in evidence, be inflicted without cruelty, and without any material hurt." Francis II. with his double Emperorship of the Romans and Austria, is become an object of great envy to Bona- parte, with his single Emperorship: instead therefore of King, that great man means, to be Emperor of Lombard)/, to shew his regard for the balance of power Sir Harry Diaisdale, Mayor of Garratt, has made per- sonal application to magisterial authority for a grant to enable him to become an, hereditary Emperor. The Ma-: gistrate informed him he might so become without offend- ing the laws. A plate is therefore now engraving for Sir II. with the arms of the Emperor of Garratt.—Lady Dims- dale is preparing to send an Ambassadress to Madame Bonaparte, the Empress of the French," wishing that peo- p I ple upon an equality should be upon an amicable footing. Tom Paine is reported to be dying of a broken heart, occasioned by the ill success of all the troubles and com- motions he has excited for the establishment of Equality and the Rights of Man, which have ended only in the de- struction of Liberty, and the elevation of Tyranny. The Directors of the East-India Company have resolved to grant a pension of 3001. per year to Sir Nath. Dance, his bad health not permitting him to undertake an advantage- ous voyage with which the Court had complimented him. Mr. Leigh, of Bouldner, near Yarmouth, in the Isle of Wight, has covered the trunks of several of the trees in his orchard with whitewash, made in the usual manner which has not only the effect of keeping off hares and other ani- mals, but makes the rind smooth and compact, by closing up the cracks, entirely destroys the moss, and as the rains wash off the lime, it manures the roots. M. D'Edelcrantz mentions the following composition as, very effectual in healing wounds in trees With linseed- oil, made very drying, by boiling each pound with an ounce of litharge, mix calcined bones, pulverized and sifted, to the consistence of liquid paste." With this ointment, the wounds of trees, pared very smooth, are to be covered in dry weather. M. Vanden Sande has discovered a method of making beautiful solid blue paint with turnsole.—" Take turnsole, and boil it a moment with alum and water strain the li- quor through paper, and precipitate it with the ley of pot ash, a small excess of which must be added to the decom- position of the alum. This excess of pot ash gives the paint its blue colour. Take the deposit and make it into cakes. It must not be used with acids, nor be exposed to acid vapours, till the articles for which it has been used have been varnished. Friday morning last, in Oakwellgate, Gates-head, New- castle, a young woman died in consequence of having taken a quantity of poison the day before. From motives of delicacy, she had always declined giving any informa- tion of her family or friends, but, by a. note found in her pocket book, it is supposed she belonged to Grantham, in Lincolnshire, whither advice of the unfortunate circum- stance has been forwarded. It appears she had been se- duced from her parents only a short time ago, and kept there by a person belonging to one of the stage coaches travelling south. It is said that she repeatedly urged him,, and that he had promised to take her home again. For this purpose, on Thursday morning she waited on the coach at Tyne-bridge end, which she attempting to mount, he endeavoured to prevent her, till having got up, he threw her violently down on the pavement, when the coach drove off. As soon as she recovered the use of her limbs, in the frenzy of her jnind she went and procured the fatal medicine, which she took, and returned to her lodgings—there to rest her weary head, and end the troubles cf her heart. She was a fine-looking young woman, above the middle size, of genteel manners and appearance, and might be about 19 years of age. The coroner's jury, after a minute investigation, Teturued a verdict of Lunatic and Distracted•—after which the botiy was decently interred in Gateshead church-yard. Dundee.—Last a boy, about six years of age, fell from the pier at the Seaman Shore, Dundee, into the water, when the tide was nearly full. He was supposed to have been fifteen minutes under water, and was taken out apparently dead. The means recommended by the London Humane Society for the restoring suspended ani- mation, were employed with great diligence for five hours, and at last were attended with complete success.—The boy was sent next morning to the infirmary, where, by the care and attention of those employed, he was restored to perfect health.

The supply of Bread-Corn for this morning's market was not great, and, as usual, the want of fine samples rendered the price of Wheat, ot that description, tull as dear as last Monday; the ordinary sorts, however, bear no proportion in price with the above. Barley, from the short ouantity at market, is rather dearer; and Malt, of fine quality, as the brewing season approaches, is likewise getting higher.-Ia. Béans, and most other articles, there is also a briskness, par- ticularly in new fine White Pease.—Oats are plentiful, and* prices about last week's currency.
