All they say is false. We here enjoy perfect tranquility. Pho appearance of the cut-worm, in | Indian corn and potatoes, which are* now beginning to show themselves. (and in gardens, on onions, and cab- baif«» plants lately set out) has excited much alarm. S^me person* have com- mettc&d worming their lields ; and in many hills, 5,8, 10, of these vermine have been found. Cool, cloudy wea¬ ther is favorable to their propagation. Lime and Suit have been recemmeuded as a security, and deserve a trial. It i*- certain that lime is destructive to in¬ jects winch prey on vines and tender [vegetables above ground ; and it i*- probable that its corrosive quality may pass into the earth, and drive tho worm from the neighbourhood of the corn. But it is believed that an examination of each hill, and killing the worm, \s the surest remedy. If this process should be begun in time, it may be ef¬ fected with expedition, and with pro¬ bable success. It must though be per¬ severed in. until the worm changes to it* second or last state, (as it is presu¬ med it does,) or until the heat of (he weather compels it to retreat deeper into the earth.

On the 7th instant, at ui^ht, a pWntiful shower, succeeded by a con¬ sul irable deal of moi^tur^ the t-.*xt day gave new life to th<» plants of the field and garden. Indian corn was com¬ monly planted between the 20th of A- uriKaudthe first day of the present inuuth -, and is now generally up, uad coming up.— The spring on the whole has heen pleasant, but for a few days past too cold, if there had been a grea- tt-r abundance of water it would have been deemed favourable. Grass is ve¬ ry backward, and oats i.:.d Ilax have; Binde poor growth. Gardens have been as early as usual. Turnip-tops, cabbage-sprouts, spinach, waiter cres- sp*, lettuce, raddishes, and all wild sallads, were not delayed beyond their Wanted period*. Asparagus has btjen small and hard.—The blossoms of peas and strawberries aie falling, gi\d the fruit is forming. The wheat, which atone, time cheer¬ ed us with the expectation of an abun¬ dant crop, and of a full compensation for the deticiency ot the Indian corn of last year, is now in a fair way to complete destruction* . The ravages of the Hessian fiy seeni to exceed any thing hitherto known.
