A premium of 20 guineas will be given for the design which appears to them most to unite these objects.

From the report of the committee of the Female Penitentiary of Hull, it appears that, in the course of the last year, twelve unfortunate women have been reclaimed, of whom ten have been sent out to service, and two restored to their friends, Fourteen at present reniain in the house. Their earnings during the last year, amounted to upwards of 160l.; a convincing proof, as was justly observed in the report, that habits of industry have been successfully cultivated in that excellent institution.

The trials of Thomas Wainwright and Joseph Blackburn, attornies, of Leeds, the for mer for cutting a stamp from a deed, with the intention of using it for a second, and the latter for counterfeiting certain stamps, excited extraordinary interest at the late assizes. The former was acquitted, owing to the bad character of the only witness against him. The latter was capitally convicted; and, notwithstanding the interest made to save his life, his sentence was carried into execution at York on the 8th of April.

Ireland-British Colonies-Abroad:

so long adorned the British stage, and nephew of Mr. John Kemble, was born at Wolverhampton in 1774. When his thother, in 1778, burst forth upon the London stage, he appeared in the character of the child to her Isabella, in the tragedy of that name.He commenced his education at Croydon, and was thence removed to Dr. Barrow's academy in Soho-square, but shortly afterwards placed, through the favour of the Queen, upon the foundation of the Charter house, where he remained five years. His friends designed him for the church, but a strong hereditary attachment led him to devote himself to the stage; and having joined the company of his uncle, Mr. Stephen Kemble, he appeared, in 1792, in Zanga, in The Revenge. After acting at various provincial theatres, he obtained engagements in those of the metropolis. In 1802, he mårried Miss Murray, daughter of Mr. M. of Covent Garden theatre, an actress of respectable abilities, by whom he has left several children.-As an actor, Mr. S. if not in the first line of excellence, was always judicious, and manifested strong feelings, as well as a critical knowledge of his author. An inherent delicacy of feeling is admitted to have thrown a shade over his powers, which would have shone brighter, and produced a stronger effect, if he had possessed less talent, and more confidence. Mr. S. was the author of several novels of considerable merit, as William Wallace, Leon, Somerset, Virtuous Poverty, &c.; and of the following dramatic pieces:-Modern Breakfast, interlude, 1790-Sicilian Romance, opera, 1794

A Tale of Terror, dramatic romance, 1803 -Time's a Tell-tale, comedy, 1807; besides some others that have not been printed.

MONTHLY AGRICULTURAL REPORT.

THE weather in the early part of last month and the month preceding having been extremely mild and open has brought forth a burst of vegetation more forward and luxuriant than is common to this climate. The continued rain in March has injured the wheats upon all those soils where percolation was impeded either from their tenacity or the neglect of the farmer in not procuring a proper drainage. A dry May will be necessary to recover them. But upon all those soils where the water could escape in due time the wheat crop was never more forward and promising.

The early sown barleys are beginning to curl and look well, but the latter sown, from the clodded state of the land, have scarcely made their appearance, and from the late dry weather are likely to be of two growths.

Beans, peas, and the whole of the leguminous class have come up a strong plant, The peas have not suffered so much from the slug as they commonly do in wet seasons.

Winter tares, rye, clover, and all the soiling species, are a large and forward crop. From the great quantity of turnips on hand, and the forward state of the pastures, spring food for cattle abounds more than can be recollected by the oldest farmer.

The blossom is abundant, but the frosty nights about the middle of April have destroyed a large portion of fruit in exposed situations.
