Dutchess county, has sulci, at the New-York market, during the last six weeks, the produce of ten apple trees for the almost incredible sum of three hundred ahd sixty dullais? they *vere of a species called Summer llussets ; the quantity fifty barrels., These apples grew on ten trees, which altogether occupy less than one quarter of an acre of ground.

It appears tlrot two large seas or sheets of wafer have beeu discovered in the interior of New-Hloland, sup plied chiefly by two considerable ri vers, whose sources are on the wes tern side' of the blue mountains. Letters from Batavja of the 8d January, states, that the whole of the cotton crops have beeu destroyed by the locusts.

If this appropriation be just, there is no longer room to doubt that the bold n&yigatnrs of Tyre had reached the south point of Africa : and if tbey actually gained that point, we may infer that they navigated also the Eastern oce^n. Paris . ? The Report of the French Academy of Hciences, on its transactions during the year 1819, contains the following statement. > The population of Paris amounts to 714,000 ? the number of non-do miciliated or casual inhabitants is 24,000 ? the mean number of annual births, 21,000 ? the proportion of boys to girls, in the births, as 25 ty 24 ? -the number of households 2 2fr, 000 ? *70, 000 oxen are annually con sumed in that capital ? 9000 cows ? 78,000 sheep? 72,000 hogs? 74 millions of eggs ? 900,000 pigeons ? 1,200,000 chickens.

Money is abundant, (says the Lon-I don Englishman.) in the principal commercial cities of Europe. in Hamburg, for instance, the rate of interest is from 1 to 1 1-2 per cent. ? in Frankfort it is 2 per cent, exactly i ? and in Paris it is 3 per cent, in London tbe discount may be turmed 4 per cent, at present, though it seeius to be ihiding its level with the rate on the continent, it having become of late an extensive branch of commerce to remit capital to England from those parts of Europe where the rate of interest is low, in order to obtain the superior advantages still held out by the money market of this country, a practice which must tend to ap proximate the price all over Europe to one staudard.
