HASZARIVS GAZETTE, JUNE 25. INUNDATIONI IN Fiuscs.—-The acoeuntsx given by the provincial journals ofthe inun- dations in different parts of the country are most atliicting. At Lyons the Saone has not yet reached a greater height than it has done during the last ten days, but the Rhone has risen above the level it attained in I840 and I851. The Guilloture, the brotteaux, as far as Villerbanne and La Monche, are all inundated, and can only be reached by boats or in carriages. In the City, the Gallery ofthe Hotel Dieu, the Place Belle- cour, a great part ofthe Place de la Charite, and all the adjoining streets, are under water, and can only be approached by boats. At the Quai de la Charite two steamers arc moored, with their steam up ready for any eventuality. All the line of the quays on the right bank from the Port Morand to that ofthe Hotel Dieu are cover- ed with water. On the left bank the top of the Quai d’Albret is only a few inches above the level of the river. A number of soldiers are at work at the head of this quay in throwing up embankments to pi-o- tect the new works of defence which are in course of construction. All the einbank-- merits further up to the river have as yet‘ resisted the pressure of the torrent, but, great fears are entertained that they will not stand if the rush of water continues. At St. Clair the walls ofa house have been undermined and the building thrown down. One woman was severely wounded, and has been conveyed to the Hotel Dieu. At the Quarantine several walls of gardens have been washed down An immense quantity of building timber has been seen floating down the river, and also a number of sleepers, which must have been washed away from the railway in construction from jolivet is now in prison at the Concieijerie, waiting his trial ; and two persons employ- e in his news otiice will be arrested, also to take their trial on the charge ofaiding and abetting in the act. The unfortunate employs at the printing-ofiice has not only lost his place, but will also be tried for the same otfence, to which he says he was in- duced by the promises of Lejolivet to hear him harmless. Should Lejolivet himself get off on the present charge, it is said that the persons whose respects have been ruined will proceed against him for damages to cover the loss to themselves and their families. The Times yesterday, highly indignant at the dismissal of Mr. Cram ton, says of that gen- tleman :—“ Did we be ieve he had really been guilty of an offence against the United States there woul need little pressure or remun- strance to induce us at once to remove him from the situation he would have dishonored ; biitif an attempt be made to sacrifice him to the emergencies of local politics, we shall feel that his quarrel is our own, and certainly not pass it over without distinctly marking our sense of the indignity" We enkrtained the conviction long before the publication of Lord Clarendon’s unsnswerable despatch to Mr. Marcy, that the character of the witness who gave evidence in the Hertz trial rendered their statements worthy of little credence ; but we cannot exonerate Mr. Crainpton from the folly of supposing that any citizen in the United States could be induced to enter the British army for the bcggarly pittance which was offered. He ought to have known from his knowledge of the country that the thing was absurd and would not answer. The rice which labour commands in America ought to have convinced him that the pro osition would end in failure. even if there he been no neu- trality laws in the United States to violate; and we think that the lamentable ignorance Lyons to Geneva. At St. George an enor- mous mass of ground, trees, and stones fell down on the back of a house in the street oftliat name, the walls of which were con-, eiderably damaged. The inhabitants were. able to escape without any injury. About. half-past one on Saturday the dyke of thel Grand Camp gave way to the extent of 150‘ yards ; 1100 men belonging to the army of, Lyons were at work near the fort which is, being constructed there, and they were} thus cut off, the water having formed a coin-f plete lake around the place. Information’ of the event was iininediately sent to Mar- shal de Castellane, who at once went to- wards the place, and gave orders for or- ganising means of bringing them off by boats. Reports were at one time in circul-l ation that a great number of soldiers had» been drowned, but those rumours happily turned out to be unfounded. The fort of a Vitriolerie has been flooded, and has been evacuated by the soldiers. The cir- culation on the Mediterranean‘ and St. Etienne Railway continues interrupted. The line of electric telegraphic wires has been cut ofl. The road from yons to Geneva is broken up in several places. It was reported that the Lake of Geneva had overflowed its banks, and caused consider- able damage. At Rochecareon a mill has been carried away. At Valence the Rhone covers all the lower ‘parts of the town. Vizille and Bourg d’ Oisans are also inun- dated. At Vienne all the works in the Faubour are stopped by the places being inundate . At Toui-non most of the streets are impasssable, except by boats. At Avignon, the Ile de la Barthelasse, the quays, and the low streets are all under water. The River Romaneschi has over- lowed its banks, and inundated all the plains, and several bridges have been wash- ed away. The Isere, the Gier, the Cher, the Loire, the Loiret, and all the rivers leading into them,‘have also broken over their banks; and, indeed, the same ac- count is given from sltnost every part of the country.

We are the last sacrifice a man who has nobly discharged his duty; but Mr. Crnmpton blundered in the per- formance of his even at the outsot—hlundered in the selection of the worthless fellows whom be employed, and blundered, moreover, in an emission which could only have occurred through sheer negligence. The Money market does not appear to be at all affected by the unsettled state of our relations with the United States—-having re- tained the easy feeling noticed last week. The demand has daily been moderate, and there is no abatement of confidence in the commercial and financial prospects of the future. The fourth oftlie month, usually held as a test of the soundness of the mar- ket, and also of mercantile opinion, passed over with more case than usual, although it is understood the engagements were heavier than was anticipated. The supply ofmoney is more than equal to the demand. The Bank of England rates continue at6 per cent, and the general rates in Lombard- street are 4} per cent ; and on the Stock Exchange the rates have not exceeded 4 and 5 per cent. Railway Companies are now offered only 4 per cent. The imports of Specie have again been large, havia which about £80,000 has been on French account, leavi £796,000 in the'ceuntry. The experts have been £489.63, nearly all in silver, to India and China, an elsewhere. The Bank has orches- ed a large quantity of gold during t a week.

AGRICULTURE.

The first employment of the earliest in- habitants of the world was the cultivation of the earth. Agriculture gave direction to their labours, and supplied their wants. Their descendants, the greatest princes and statesman have made agricul- ture the object of their studies and in- junctions, they have practised it them- selves, and have made it part of their politics, to reward its improvement, and to furnish its neglect. No wonder it has been the business and amusement of the world in every age. It forces itself upon us on account of its necessity, and recommends itself to us on account of its advantages. Agri- culture not only furnishes weallli to a nation, but also hands able and willing to defend it. If; man can say this is my farm, this spot I have chosen as the place of my abode ; this house I have built for my shelter; these fields I have cleared, this orchard I have planted, how would his bosom glow with patriotism, and how ready would he be to exert him- self in defence of the country of his na- tivity or adoption against any invasion. I’. E. Island has been termed the gar- den of N. America in the days of yore, but it must be admitted that it requires the hand of cultivation, and the appli- cation of science, together with theju- dicous approprialioii of its funds to de- velop its resources.—lt must be admitted that there are many excellent farmers lo- to calcd in various localities, whose praise- worthy endeavours merit the approbation of all men, biitit is to be regretted that these are the exceptiens—not the general rule. It must also be admitted, that there are others who are from year to year, the recipients of public aid, whose physical necessities engross their whole attention, and consequently are unable to avail themselves of Ilie advantages of edu- cation.-— It is generally affirmed that man should be taught physically—inlellectually, and morally. Physical education constitutes the developement of every organ of the body, in such a manner so as it may be made self sustaining, should contingencies occur, so as it might be thrown exclusively upon its own resources. If the confine- ment in a small ill-vented school room. situated in seine recluse place by a corner or swamp, is calculated to perform the desired object, I am under a gross mis- cessary for the rising generation in this age of fancied maturity. Education calis every faculty of the body and mind into ininiediate action, it is comparatively useless to cultivate the one faculty to the injury of the other ——should the medical calender be called upon to bear witness-—it would proclaim that the seeds of the mortality among mankind, have had their origin in the any , discipline of youth. The local ngoverninents have done much for the cause ofeduoation, but much remains tuba done, ,_it moot, acknowledge thiit” ‘the salary appropriated is inadequate to sup- s, consequently _etio_seva iiiuniesiowa ' so-Iiesirib otasrpdi-aiu -‘iv: l’I}’." c talte respecting the education that is ne-s ”°"”:l1 lto his farm, and another to his merchan- .flIze.” doc. _How to augment their salaries ‘II the question forsolutioj. ] They have been deprived of glebe lands, it is therefore indispensably neceg- sary, that each school should have a few :acres of land contiguous to it, ‘that the teachers may have a permanent place of residence, and might enter into his call- ing, as any farmer or mechanic, to live and die in.

Agricul- tural scminariea are as indispensably ne- cessary in I’. E.

It must be acknowledged that the interposition of science is neces- sary in the pursuit of agriculture, we have anticipated an agricultural reform through the instruinentality of our agri- cultural chemist, who is handsomely re- warded for his services—but these visions have proved themselves like the morning cloud on the early dew (they have pas- sed away.) The agricultural society are using laudable efforts, they have gotten a farm for the purpose of raising seeds, stock, (SL6. &c.

An account of the Glasnevin model farm School—taken from the American Cultivator, is hereunto annexed from which some glcanings may be obtained and rendered productive of the most beneficial results. It cannot be denied, that if the education of youth is properly conducted (education) will cease to be a public burden—and be rendered accessi- .ble to every one, from the child in aa- Kture’s clothing, to the prince in royal apparel.
