CAR instituted at London. Since that memorable period, numberless in- ventions have been introduced into rural economy, and the names of Lord Homxey, Mesa. Shipley, More, and many other illustrious promoters of true national wealth, will ever be remembered by a grateful posterity. One of the moat active members of this -re- spectable institution is Mr. Ar- thur Youxg, of whose public spirit, and indefatigable labours, we have before us the most ample and satisfactory proofs. His " An- nals of Agriculture," though con- dueled on a plan too diffuse for ordinary readers, is a work replete with practical facts; and, on the whole, the best illustration of Bri- tish husbandry. In the 18th vo- lume of these Annals, we meet with an elaborate paper, entitled '.' The Farmers Cart;" by the editor ; from which we shall ex- tract the following particulars : Mr. Youxg first observes, that the most general farmer's carriage in England, is a waggon, drawn by four horses, in which is convey- ed corn, hay, wood, &:c. but not dung or earth, which are usually CAR [441 move I by carts, or tumbrils, drawn by three, or four horses: — carriers' almost universally employ broad- wheeled waggons, drawn by eight horses. In Scotland, waggons were formerly used, but afterwards changed for large carts, ami more lately for sinali ones, drawn by one horse. In Ireland, the most common vehicle at present is the one-horse car, with low wheels beneath the body of the machine; which has universally superseded the use of English carts and waggons, from a conviction of their inferiority. No- thing, says Mr. Youxg, exceeds the amazing expedition with which corn and hay fields are cleared in that country, by means of this use- ful, though inelegant implement. In consequence of such a decisive encomium, as well as the very fa- vourable account given of this ma- chine by the late Mr. Bakewell, of Dishley, Leicestershire, in the " Communications to the Board of A 'o ricif.lt ure" we have been induced to present our readers with the fol- lowing cut, and description, of an I m proved Irish Car.
