ANSWERS TO AGRICULTURAL QUERIES. Copy of the Queries, and the Abstract of the Communications received by the Board of Agri- culture, in Answer to Queries transmitted to several-; Correspondents, 011 the present State of the Agri- culture of the Country.—Laid before Parliament. QUERIES. 1. Are any Farms in your neighbourhood nnoccupied by Tenants?—and, have Landlords in consequence, been obliged to take them into their own hands?—Please to state the number of Forms alio their 2. Have any Tenants within your knowledge given notice to their Landlords of quilting their partus at Lady-day, or any other period ? 3. Have any Farms been lately re-let at an abatement of rent ? and it so, what is the proportion ofsltch abatement ? .4. What circumstances denoting the distress of the Farmers have come to your ImowJedge which may not be included under the above Queries? 5. Is the present distress greater on arable, or or; grass Farms ? 6. Have Flock Farms suffered equally with others? 7. Does the country in which yon reside suffer irom a diminished circulation of paper. 8. What is the state of the Labouring Poor what is the proportion of Poor Hates compared with the years 1811 and 1812 ? 9. What remedies occur to you for alleviating these difficulties ? The Letters received in reply to the preceding Queries have been arranged under the heads of those Counties in which the writers reside, -and the results registered distinctly under each Query, have been brought into one view under the respective titles. The replies already received amount to 288. F1 li s T Q u e n y—Occvpan cy. TVo hundred and seventy-nine replies, describing the State of Occupation, have been received, which may be thus arranged — No. ot Letters, Letters mentioning farms unoccupied by tenants, being thrown on the landlords' hands M-9 Letters in which no such want of occupancy occurs 11 j Letters in which farms are stated to have become uncultivated, fur want of being occupied by the land lords 17 2-¡-9 Jt is necessary to observe, in relation to the 113 letters, that their uu't containing the article ot occupation by tenants, is not SiHglyto be taken as a sign of prosperity as a great number of them are amongst those the roost descriptive ol agricultural distress. it may be further remarked, thdt the letters represent a very large quantity of J and to be uncultivated. SECOND QUERy-Notices to Quit. Two hundred and sixty-five replies have been received to this Query, winch may be thus arranged ;—. No.ot Letters. Letters in. whIch the expression is. many farmers have given notice to quit 94 Letters in which the 'esoressions are, several or a few have given notice to quit 90 Letters in which the expression; is all that can have given notice to quit 19 Letters in which the expressed is, none have given notice to quit 62 265 It is scarcely necessary, to remark, that, until the present period of declension commenced, such an idea as giving not)cetoquitnf..rm, except for the purpose of hirillg a better one, may be said to be almost unknown in the kindom and no circumstance can more clearly mark the present degradation of the employment, than these notices to quit. THIRD QUERy-Reduction if Rents. There have been 190 returns specifying the propor- tionate reduction of rent; and the average of them all is 25 per cent. It should, however, be remarked, that this applies only to the letters which specify the amount of the reduction many others speak of the same fact, without giving pre- cisely the proportion.' The land rents of the kingdom, according to the Returns of the Property-tax, have been stated at 34 millions if the real fact should exceed this by only two millions, the total will be. 36 millions, and the-loss of 25 per cent, will give a total of nine millions to landlords alone but this will, loJv no means, according to the letters received by the Board, be the whole of one year's loss, as the amount of unpaid arrears is stated ill many of the letters to be very great indeed. FOUHTII QUEHy-Gcrwml State of Husbandry in the present period. By far the greater number of the letters enter into con- siderable details on the circumstances which denote the present deplorable state of the national agiieultor-e, bank- ruptcies, seizures, 'executions, imprisonments, and fanners become parish paupers, are particularly mentioned by many oi the correspondents with great arrears ol rent, and in many cases Tithe and Poor Rates unpaid. These cir- cumstances are generally expressed in language denoting extreme distress, and absolute ruin, in a variety of in- stances. FirTH and SrxTH QUERIEs-Arable aneZ Grass Land, and Flock Farms compared. The replies to the Fifth Query very generally assert the distress to be much greater on Arable than on Grass Land but many of them observe, that of late the prices of grass land produce have so much declined, that the difference ,e promises soon to be but small. In general it is asserted, that flock farms have suffered much less than others, but they have begun to feel it heavily, yet not equally in all cases, with arable land. SEVENTH QUERy-Circulation of Paper. There is in the replies some difference of opinion upon this point: much mischipf is noted from the failure of country banks. Many of the correspondents are of-.opnv.on that agriculture suffers much for want of a larger and safer circulation; and not a few complain heaVily of the defi- ciency of paper being an extreme, that they are iorced to sell their product under a great depreciation of price merely for want of notes to pay for them. But 11 few others are of opinion that the present amount of paper is adequate to the object of buying and selling at the present reduced prices. EIGHTH QUERY—STATE of the L"abouring PEAR end I Poor Rates. The total number of letters containing replies en the first of these subjects amounts to Std. Two hundred and eleven letters describe the state of the poor under various expressions, denoting a want of employment in terms more or less forcible. Ninety-six of the above letters, expatiating on the degree of this want of employment, describe the extreme distress resulting from it as amounting to great misery and wretch- edness, and in some cases to an alarming degree. Sixteen letters describe the state of the labouring poor as neither better nor worse than formerly. Ninetctm letters give a favourable report, representing their state as not in want of employment, and therefore not distressed. These 35 cases, so much more favourable than the rest, require a few words of explanation, as in 14 of them there occur circumstances tending strongly to shew that whatever the present state may be, it will soon become not superior to that ot the rest. In seven of these cases they are at- tended by mimites of unoccupied farms and notices to quit. In two others the Poor Rates are stated to be high and increased. In one other the, favourable report combines with the fact of 51) farmers being distrained for rent. In another case die favourable report is confined to one or two parishes with much distress in their vicinity. In one other, in which the poor are represented as not suffering, it is admitted that they have less employment than heretofore. In another case employment is found by manufacturers. And in one, the reporter employs all the poor of his parish Oil a principle of charity. POOR RATES. The letters containing returns descriptive of Poor Rates are to the following purport oi Letters. Letters in which the rates have increased since 18 i 1 and 1 til 2 129 N. li. In forty-nine of these letters the pro- portional rise is given, and amounts 011 the average to 42 per cent. ;— decreased 24 N. 13. Tn seven of these letters the propor- tional fall is given, and amounts 011 an average to per cent. ■ are stationary, that is,neither higher nor lower than 1811 and 18i2 72 225 But this table gives by no means a sufficient idea of the distress at present arising from this heavy tax, as in a variety of instances the farmers who lately paid to these rates have been obliged to give up their and are actually become paupers themselves,-and receive parochial allowances like other paupers mid'this increased burthen in many parishes occurs while some farms are unoccupied or run waste and in cases the most favourable, the bur- lhen blls witb increasing weight 011 the landlords. The letters contain many complaints, that while the manufac- turers who have (Iccasioned the chid burthen pay scarcely any thing to the rates, the accumulated weight falls on the occupiers of land. J;!f!t the surprising circumstance of this result is, th» in- crease being so geueral at the very period in whiz:ÍJ. fronl liie reduced price of provisions, a directly contrary effect might have been expected. The great object of the Board in these inquiries has been 1<<> collect facts. If it be asked, what conclusions are to be drawn fram tllese facts? :Such will of course suggest themselves .with the greatest clearness to ific Ateiiibers of, the Legislature. With this expectation before us, we cannot be surprised at the anxiety felt, and the apprehensions ex- pressed by many of the ablest persons (being Magistrates of extensive jurisdictions), amongst the correspondents whose letters are the basis of this general result. But the Board cannot forbear making one observation, as it may be extremely important to the future state of the country.— When it is considered that the tracts absolutely unculti- vated arc of considerable extent, and that a great number of farms are thrown upon "the Landlords' hands, in a period when it must of necessity be extremely inconvenient to attempt their cultivation, in many cases heavily burthen- some, and in some ruinous, it must be evident that the management of these farms may ptobablv be so very im- perfect as to occasion a great defalcation in the produce of corn. It niayafso be observed, that among the circum- stances mentioned in reply to the fourth query, is that of:1 very general neglect of the use of all purchased manures, together wilh a discharge of labourers formerly employed to an amount that must considerably atfeet tbe future cul- tivation of the soil. These points, if duly considered, may afford no slight reason for apprehending a considerable declension in the amount of future, productions; and should such an effW-t arise, it 111."11)" cow ut c» ,rue in the pressure wiil be more severely felt.

THIS Office v.-M established in Lombard- Street, London, in the year 1797, by a numerous ami respectable Proprietary and the Board of Directors, w'uh Confidence, arising from the increased Prosperity, and Pet- uanency of the Establishment, as well as from the Experi- 2nce of its usefulness and benefit to the public, think it due to those who may still be unacquainted with the impor- tance and advantages of Liftl Insurance, briefly to suggest some of the leading and peculiar recommendations to almost every degree and Rank in Society. Life Insurance is nl. manifest conscqnence to all those who hold Estates Cor Life,, Situations and Ofiices, CiviI, Ecclesiastical, or Professional; to Officers in the Army and Navy, &c. u, by payment of an Annual Premium, the Party insured is enabled to provide for Wile, Children, or others, whose future welfare he may wish in vain, by other means, to pro mote. It affords a permanent tiltiii-ate sectii-iln, to those who advance Money upon Annutties or otherwise. It ren- ders Leases, determinable 011 one or more lives, nearly equal in vaiue to Freehold Estates, as an Insurance to the amount of the fine, payable on the demise of a party no- minated in such Leases, will produce the Sum required for renewal. It is a cheering refuge to parties engaged in ex- lensive and speculative undertakings: it affords to Persons in Trade the certain means ø f indemnification against a bad or doubtful debt; in short, Life Insurance, established in policy, sanctioned by Government, and cOTdirmed bv the test of experience, is become, to almost every situation of human life, a measure equally important, useful, and beneficial. Annuities are granted upon the most equita.- ble terms, under a Special Act of Parliament, granted to his Office. THOMAS PARKE, Sec.. COMPANY'S ASJSTS AT Gr.OCESTER, Tutnerand Morris. TEWKESBURY T.

OF all diseases incident to mankind, those of th'« nervous kind are the mOst complicated and dif- ficult to cure. A TO hi me would not be sufiicieiU to point out their various appearances. They imitate almost every disease; and arasehkmi ajike ht twopersoi's, or even in the same person at different times.—Proteus like, they are continually changing shape and upon every fresh attack, the patient thinks he feels symptoms which he never ex- perienced before. Nor do they on!y affect the body; the; mind likewise suffers, and is often "thereby rendered ex- tremely weak and peavish. The spirits, timorousness, melancholy, aod sickliness of temper, which .generally attend nervous disorders, induce many to believe that they are intirely diseasccl of the mind but this change of temper is rather a consequence than the cause of nervous diseases. THE CORDIAL BALM OF GILEAD Is decidedly the most elegant and efficacious medicine ever yet discovered for nervous, diseases and shattered constitutions, consumptions, weakness of sight or mernery, hypochondria, tremblings <f the mind, sexual debility, stomach and bowel complaints, and all other diseases arising from a relaxed state of the nervous system, which are too often brought on by dissipation in youth, a'nd the prose violation ef those rules which prudence dictates for the preserTiitioi» of health, and the laying a foundation fur a long and happy life, wnh a firm and strong constitution.

! IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT..
IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS. Friday, Mm/ 3.—The Earl of Albermale pre sented a petition from the county of Norfolk praving rehef from agricultural distress. Oil the motion of the Earl of Stanhope, a Select Committee was appointed to consider of the best means of arranging the Statute Book into distinct and proper heads. HOUSE OF CO MMO NS. Wednesday, May 1.—Mr. Wyun submitted his ptotnised motion, whether the appointment of Sir j Thompson to the Treasurership of Greenwich Hospital vacated his seat in Parliament. Mr. Banks said, there could be no possible oh- jection to Members holding or accepting sum places; he should, therefore, move the previous question. Mr. Serjeant Onslow, Mr. Ponsonby, Lord A. Hamilton, and Mr. Abercrombie were for tile on- ginal mutton. Lord Castlereagh and Mr. Rose spoke in favour of the amendment, when the House divided ior the motion 47—Against it 05. 1\1r. Horner rose to move tor a Select Coinavittce i to inquire into the necessity for eontu>o;ngi the restrictions on cash payments by the Bank of England. The Hon. Gent, said, if the measure was cotcarr.ied cash payments would never be resumed. The Chancellor of the Exchequer being per- suaded that the Bank would be able to resume its payments in cash in two years and not before, could payments in cash in two years and not before, could not agree to the motion. Mr. J. P. Grant was in favour of a Committee of Enquiry. Mr, Marry at t thought the Bank should be com- pelled to pay to the public a. certain sum aiipually, till cash payments were resumed. Mr. F. Lewis strongly resisted the continuation of the restrictions. If the proposed continuation for two vears were adopted, he did not thiuk we chould be any nearer resumption of cash payments than at present. The resumption of cash payments must be'made obligatory, or it would never be ef- fectual if the Bank was left to itself cash payment would never be resumed. Lord Castlereagh said, until he could see the exchange becoine so favourable as to m,'ike gold more profitable in the shape of coin, rather than when msited clown into ingots, he could not con- sent to call on the Bank to pay in cash. Sir J. Newport was in favour of the enquiry. Mr. Manning and Mr. Baring hoped the country would be enabled to return, as soon as possible, to that system of payment of cash which alone could secure the interests of the country. Mr. Huskisson said, although he could not agree for a Committee, he thought the House shouid declare to the Bank and country that we should gradually return to cash payments without which there was no safety for property. Mr. Horner shortly replied, when the House divided—for the motion 73—against it 146. Sir S. Romily objected to the precipitancy with j which Ministers were disposed to press the Alien Bill through the House; and moved for a return of the number of Aliens sent out of the country, under the Act, at the instance of any foreign Mi- nister, since 1793. Mr. B. Addington (brother to Lord Sidmouth) objected to the motion, and declared that the return to it must be nil, none having been sent out. Mr. Baring stated the circumstance of two Dutch merchants; who were sent out of the country at a moment's notice. He (Mr. B.) waited upon Lord Sidrnouth, and was informed by that Noble Lord, that instructions or intimations had been sent from the office of the Foreign Secretary to him; and he had no alternative but to send the: out of the country. Lord Castlereagh, Lord Milton, Mr. Batnurst, and Sir S. Romiily made some observations, and the House divided — Ayes 31—Noesm,Majority 51. Toe Bank Restriction Bill was, postponed till Friday, nnd the other orders of the day were dis- posed of.—Ailjournvd at half past -t%vo o clods, till. Friday. Friday, May S.—Several petitions were read and laid on the table, against the Leather Tax, the Debtors' Act, the Poors* Bills, &c. Mr. Brougham said, he had understood that in March, May, and August, of the last year, circular I letters were sent round to the of Taxes, directing them to send complete copies of the re-' turns oAvery person to the Assessed and Property Taxes to the Board of Taxes. He had since been informed that another circular was sent, on the 17th of April last, near a month after the tax had died, bv a decision of the House, requiring another similar* full and ample return. The Hon. Gent, then moved for conies of all circulars written by the'Board of Taxes in March, May, and August, 1815; and in April, 131G, to the Surveyors of Taxes in the different districts. Mr. Vansittart had no objection to the motion; the Gent, must be aware that these returns were necessary to regulate the business of the office. Lord Castlereagh moved for leave to bring m a Hill- for the better regulation of the Civil List. His Lordship. in a speech of great length, stated that the total charge of the future Civil List was estimated at 1,339,495!. This would include the Windsor Establishment, the 00,0001. for the Privy Purse, and the additional 30,0001. granted to her Majesty in consequence of the King's indisposition, when Mr. Percivai formed the present arrange- ment. This, he said, would reduce the estimates to 1,168,0001. and of this the sum of 409,0001. only is appropriated to the public splendour and do- mestic enjoyments of the crown; the other and larger part of the expenditure being devoted to judicial alid-diplomatic expences. After a few remarks from Sir F. Byrdett, leave was friven. c Mr. Grenfeil presented a petition from the city of London, complaining of the present state of the silver currency. Mr. W. Pole assured the House, that the matter was under the consideration °> Government. To"! House having resolved Itself into a Com- mittee on the Bill for continuing the Restrictions on the Payment of Cash by the Bank of England, Mr. Vansittart proposed to fid up the blank with the words 5th of July, 1813." He considered this Bill as necessary to give the Bank time to prepare for resuming cash payments. Mr. Horner proposed an amendment, enabling the Directors to pay in cash, either forthwith, or at any time previous to the 5fh of July, liMd, and I 'I'l L that they shall be liable alter that period to pay their notes on demand. The Chancellor of the Exchequer said the amend- ment of the Hon. Gent. was not calculated to effect, the object which he had in view. What he would propose was, that the Bank shoulo, as soon as possible, resume payments in cash; but in order to afford time tor resuming those with. out public inconvenience, &c. Mr. Marryatt stated the necessity of the declara- tion being made by Parliament, on ths ground that it was essential to the benefits of British commerce, and which at present was much deteriorated in foreign ports. The warehousing shares, he ob- served, which was carried on in the London Docks were reduced to between 70 and 75 per cent. This formed a strons: argument in favour of the decline al,Iriielit I;) i-l of Vrilish comnterce. Advices, the Hon, Gent. o„ observed, had been received to-day from America, of the date ot the 4th of April, which proved the depreciated sta.te of the American Exchange in the different States of that country. With respect to the circulating medium of this country, the aug- mentation of imaginary property had the effect ot injuring, in a great measure, the progress ot com- merce, and enabled the ioreign merchants to uudersel us,. Every day foreign establishments were starting up abroad, from British capital, lie supported the amendment. Mr. Baukes conceived, that the proposition of the Right lion. Gent, was nothing more than one of those ordinary renewals which the country had been accustomed to since 1797. He wished, there- fore, that Parliament would lay it down in terms in the Bill what was hoped and expected from the Bank of England, It was also of consequence to restrain Country Bankers from indulging in spe- culations so ruinous to the public happiness. The Hon. Gent. suggested to insert "that it is expedi- ent, &c. but that, at the expiration of that period it should cewe, and be of effect no longer," Mr. Huskisson contended, that the lull was one for affording the Bank time for preparation, and not with a view to political objects, lie admitted the necessity of introducing some words to remove all doubts upon the subject, and thought the Bank should understand that they were to renew cash payments at the expiration of the present restric- tions, and moved to alter the preamble to this effect. Mr. S. Thornton and Mr. A. Hamilton wauld vote for the amendment of Mr. Banks. The Committee then divided on the amendment of Mr. Banks—for it 47, against it 133, The Committee then divided on Mr. Huskisson's amendment—for it 54, against it 14j. The Bill then went through the Committee, and was ordered to be reported on Monday.
