MONTHLY AGRICULTURAL REPORT.—It may safely be pronounced that since our last, all the agricultural operations have proceeded success- fully for as to the set-off of particular incon- veniences and embarrassments, that must be allowed, in every season, however prosperous.- On good friable soils, the latest of the Spring crops is in the ground but, on the heavy in I tractable lands, it is scarcely possible to make good work, until the stubborn clods have been moistenned down by showers. Indeeed other crops are more suitable than barley to such soils. The wheats, thus far. promise a crop. On good or well-manured lands they look healthv, luxuriant and fully thick set on the poor or neglected they are losing colour for want of refreshing showers, which, in fine, will soon be required by nil.— Should rain come in time, the thin i III probably receive no damage from iliai circum- stance otherwise they may fail eon-i'.t iably in product. The early sow n spring crops equal the wheats in promise. With respect to |he lat- ter, nothing y^t can be sniii, but lhat touch see,d has' been put into the ground under great disad- vantages. The hop farmers ai" fullv employed in poling; no complaints. Fi-uit trees have a.. very prolific appearance, and seem to have re- eeived Httl#«r«o- famitgs from the easterl j winds j and frosts.—The lands are now in prepara-tion for turnip sowing and for Summer fallows, where the ancient and holy prejudices of either land- lord or teuant compel that necessary I)raetide, All kinds of live stock at present, hold price. The fall of lamba has been large and successful, but it must require some time to replenish the mutton-market; for not only was the loss of ewes great, by the late rot, but, it appears, that of lamb hogs (yming sheep) has been greater than was supposed. The want of dry food and shelter occasions these losses, regularly occurring during every wet season but men generally, whether from custom, indolence, or preferring the risk, turn their backs on precaution. Wool is in demand, with little or no variation in price. His MAJESTY'S ship Tamar, Captain Gordon Bremer, was dispatched from England,, under the direction of Lord Bathurst. to take possession of the north part of Now HoUand. called Van Die- man's Land, and of Melville Island, in the Gulph of Carpentaria. The following particulars, which have hoen received, written by an officer empioy- ed in tbeservice, will be read with much interest: —" KtNC S CQVB, PORT COCKBUHN. MKLVILLE ISLAND, AUSTRALASIA, Kov. 12, o)jr arrival at Sydney, from England, we hired a merchant vessel (the Countess of Harcourt), which we loaded with various provisions and stores, and embarked In her a detachment of twenty-five men of the 3rd Regiment or Buffs, commanded by Captain Barlow. We atso loaded a Colonial brig, with various agricllllural and J mechanical instruments, necessary to form a set- dement. After a pleasant passage of si* weeks we arrived at the destined spot, at the northern extremity of Vew Holland (now called A usira-1 lasia) named Port Essington. in long; 131 E". of j Greenwich, where we landed all our marines (4fi J in number), and jiuinc-diately hoisted the British Aa«r, on a high tree, amidst a salute o/fweuty.mi.e suns from the Tanrar, a volley of small atjiVs from the troops, and the repeated huazas of all hands, Perhaps, never was a martial sound h«ard here bt fore The natives were so struck with terror, that the.v all fled away. After the other usual formalities, we divided ouselves into t,wo sraoii I parties to go in searclS of"fVe«h watwc;- am^ ffi?- cover the re'reat of the native*. The M iiiir we found some fresh water, but could onh trace the natives to a certain distance. da vs. after we proceeded toward MrlViHe Istatul, wilit-li we reached in three days, at a place called ApsleV Straits, which is about thirty miles in len-jth, formed bv the said Island, and another Is- land named Bathurst Island, which lies to the westward. We also took possession of these places, in the King's name, with all due fonuah* ties. The port bas been named '• Cockbun*' ) and the spot of groundsel', cted upon Which to form the settlement, &; ■s (ktve. !Th"s 'is- itinis are covered with the mcst luxuriant plants and trees, a great number of which we have cut flown, to clear the ground, and, in six weeks. we have erected a fort. two large house*, about eigh. teen cottages, a large Store house, a lauding place. a.id dug a deep wellofspriug water:. Hay- injr completed our establishment, we had a grand dinner party, hoisted the flag in the-fort, with a royal salute, drauk bumpers totheKmg s. healjh, toasts out of number, aot forgetting our dear. ahsenl friends, and the fair sex of England.

They were black men, quite nuked, holding their hands »bt/?e their heads, as a sign ofbeir.g friendly. They nil at once macle a stop. and some of them came, to- wards us, with whom we shock hands, but they appeared very suspicious of our attentions. Most of their words were vara, Yavn. piri, T'eri; this last expression we understood to be, gi ve us SoUle lUtes, which wediil, and vnriwus other trinkets; after which ihey ranaway, making the same noise asj'M-fore. They returned again, beggin; more axes, and what they Could not obtain by ^iff; they Stole, with all the dexterity of thorough-bred meL- tropolltan thieves. We "shall proceed hence shortly, for the East India station."

THE ratification of the Commercial Treaty between this countryalldthe, United Provinces is complptecij and the political independence of the".Bew.-Sotith American States fully recognised. "The treaty ivns contiuded at Buenos Afrps on tfie 19th February: and the official copy when the ratifications are duty exchanged, will be laid before both Houses of Parlia- ment. The Plenipotentiaries were Don Maouft Jose Garcia, Minister for Foreign Affairs of the United Provinces of Rio de Plata, and Mr. VVoolbine Parish, Consul- General at Huenos Ayres; and thus, to use the words of the Consul, that connlry 64 is placed in the rank of the nations re- cognised in the world." The treaty 94i. pulates perpetual friendship between the dominions and subjects of the Contracting Parties, reciprocal freedom of trade, liber- ty of conscience, and the exercise of re. ligion, public or private, conformable to the system of toleration established in Kng. land. The free disposal of property is mutually agreed to; and the United Pro. tinces, anxious, to co.operate with this country in the total abolition of the Slave Trade, have prohibited all persons resid- ing it) the United Provinces, or subject to their jurisdiction, in the most effectual, manner and by the most solemn laws, from taking any part in the aid traffic. His also slil)ultite(i that iii ciise of .tiiy unfor- tunate interruption of the amicable retor- ruption of the amicable relations of com. merce, or a breach between the two Par- ties, the subjects and citzens of each shall remaiu and continue their trade without interinption, so long as they do not ofreld- the laws, aud their effects and property, shall not be subject to embargo or seq^j#^ (ration. The Speaker, on Friday, took the op. porfunify in the Commilte of avowing yg hostility to the Catholic J3i1l*»- an avow/II which will be received with the highest satisfaction and we even now cherish a hope, that upon reflection the proselytes will return, and the Champions of Protes- tantism rally and that our Represeiita,, tives will assert their claims to the grati- tude of their country by. rejecting the measure without reference to the Lords. The foreign news, if i t (leserves the name is still confined to a few unimportant anecdotes or to the details of public acts of third rate interest. The Paris journals of Satnrdrty have nothing better where- with to entertain their readers than the expressions of wonder let fall hy the Teisiau Ambassador Sidi Mahmoud, upon witnessing for the first time the glories of France. At Toulon," says Chearnazed infusseliiiati, h Twas surprised, at Lyons I was astonished, but on seeing Paris I for- got every thing that I had seen before." This Turk has much still to wonder at, and to forget. It is to be hoped that he may extend his journey to London, the resoh will he to make him as oblivious of Paris as he is now of Lyons..
