Perhaps the greatest and most lperplcxing anomaly existing in every community of individuals is its Criminal and Vagrant populaâ€" tion ; and in spite of the labours of the Patriot and Philanthropist, llieie it stands a hedious and black de- formity and a seeming mockery to the boost and pride oflhis " the enlightened nineteenth century.” For, it is a fact which we had better take time and grapple \\ ith. that in spite ofoui' Schools, (filial-i- ties, Ministers, Priests, Churches and Chapels, their exists, oven at our very doors, men, women and children created by our common Father and Lord, who are as ignor- ant, dcbnsed and wicked as the most tonighled savage in the world of Heatheudom,â€"aud still more, these are not erratic specimens of fallen humanity who die and their influences cease, (would to God it were so).

Judge Hagarty, in his able charge, thus again says :â€" “ I deeply regret the utter indif- ference Willi which this most pain- ful subject seems always treated.

Silt,-IIaving rceeived one hundred rev turns lioiu municipalities and from private individuals, runny of whom slatesthat they have consulted other parties likely to give correct information “illl regard to the piohable yield of the cr0ps of 1838, I am desirous of laying the result before the public,as itinay be important to know what we are to expect with regard to the probable supply of grainage in our markets this season, and thence the probable ex- port as compared with other seasons. The hundred returns are the united opin- ions of about five hundred of the most iri- tellig‘ent farmers, ant.l have all the appt-ar- more of truthfulness, they comprise four- teen from Lower Canada, from ten couri- ties, and eiglityusix from Upper Canada, from thirty-six counties. Lower Seven Canada and three Upper Canada returns reports that no winter wheat, or very lit« tie is grown. The average growth of the thir ly~six winter wheat growing counties is only twelve bushels- ; that of forty-six spring wheat growrng counties is 13; bush. per acre. Taking the average of winter wheat at eighteen busl els per acre, the deficiency of this year's crop will he 33; per cent.; and taking the average of spring wheat at six- teen bushels pcr acre, the deficiency will be about 15 per cent. The. acreable extent of winter wheat is probably one-third greater than that of sprng wheat, biit this year’s experience will diminish the extent of winter wheat and extend that of spring wheat, particu- l_irlv that of the species called Fife or Glasgow wheat, which nearly all the re- turns represent as entirely free from rust and very nearly free from midge, and espe- cially LO when sown in April or after the crop from the midge, which, they assert, has attacked that crop, and in some cases barley as Well as “heat, and the cause of l.ust is Universally allowed to be the wait. of proper drainage and of free circulation of air. Two returns from l'isst-xfklwo from Kent, two horn Frontenar,two fr’bizt Middlesex, one from North \Yaterloo, and one from Iilgin, report almost a tota failure in the out cropâ€"in all cases attri- butcd to rust. crop is reported nearly an average ofabout 30 linshels per acre. \Yilh these exceptions the With regard to potatoes the returns are “I no means favourable as to quantity, al- ll‘°“::l| Very much so as to quality. Al- most all report a drficient crop from vari- ous cases. Twenty nine attribute the de- ficiency to drought or to wet weather at the tune of planting. Seventeen to the common rot,â€"forty-two state distinctly that there is no rot,â€"and twelve have mule no report. In Parts of Nortliumber ~ land. Durham. York and Leedmtlm grass- hopper has dme very serious injury to the potatoe crop, as well as to clover, wheat, &c. The general a'erage given in the i Taking the average at 150 bushels of 56 lhs., the crop is about 33‘s per cent. deficient in returns is 11?. bushels per acre. quantity, but the excellence of the quality will in some degree compensate for H In the new Townships on the Free Gran I Roads it is well worthy ofreinnrk that the rot has not affected the potatoes in the slightest degree, and the crop is generally excellent both in quantity and quality. The grain crops also in these localities bear the same character for excellence. The inferencr-s I wou'd draw from these hundred returns, are :â€" lst. That the whole wheat crop oann- Na for 18.38, including both winter and spring wheat, is about 25 per cent. below the general yearly average, allowing [0.“ the good qu ility of the spring win: it an 1 winter wheat, which hive escaped the inidge and rustâ€"the samples of botll being excellent. 2nd That the crops of rye, barley, and oats are about a fair average,notwithstang the partial failure of the last named. 3rd. That the pea crop is a little be- yond the averageâ€"sav 10 per cent. 4th. That the potatoe crop is abon ‘15 per cent. deficient, allowing for the ‘ '-- lent quality. which is above par. I . 5th. That the Indian Corn crop has been much less cultivated than usual, owing to the planting season being extremely wet, anrl that there will be a very small surplus of this grain beyond what will be required for domestic purposes, forty-seven returns having reported that there is little or none ngn this season. If these deductions are correct, there isa slight improvement upon last you ‘s '2-1-th of May; either very early or very late. The winter wheat called “ Mediterran. can." is also stated by four parties to be entirely free from rust or midge. and this in the New is corroborated by several writers Country Geri/lemmt. and other Yo; k papers. The opinion as to its quality mother rr-sp-‘cls varies very materially- It is not universallv ir-coininended. but ha~ some .varm advocates as a prolific wheat. Had the Fife wheat been universally sown~ the crOp of spring \vln at would have been a full average. \\'lren it is considered that winter when on summer llillows require the occupation of the laml two years. and spring wheat only one. the farmer will probably endea- vour to adapt his system to the cultiva- tion of spring whezit where naked summer I lllI)\V can be dispcused with, and ’he yi-ar’5 experience is very much in favour ofspring The breadth of sown is already much diminished, hilt what wheat. winter wheat is growth; has. been generally sorvn very i‘flliy. and luid a most llourishiug and lux- uriant appearance. 'l'hree rounties of Lower Canada , Two ‘Iouutains, Argenteuil, and Poutziic hive reported the successful growth of winter “heal, two having reporter] twenty bushels per acri-mnd the other ( 4. "Pnit‘UiD fifteen The counties in Upper Canada which have reported freedom from the midge are. Storinonl. Carleton. Grenville, Lanark. ’iussell, Benfrew, North Siincoe, Grey, and Bruce, the new townships of Adding- ton, North Hastings, Peterboro’ and Vic.- toria are also free. Stormont returns thirty bushels per acre, Carleton twenty< eight, Russell twenty seven, Renfrew twentyvtwo, Simcoe twenty-one. The insect does not appear to have reached the cultivated lands in the north, allhough it has reached the extreme west, having travelled regularly from the east. It is to be hoped that it has left the east- ern townships of Upper Canada.

'Ihis mes- sage was sent at a late hour, and the re- sult was not known in Toronto last night.
