CAMBRIDGE. March Bth, 1876.
The meeting of the Farmers' Club last night was well attended. Mr Clark read an able essay on " iloot Crops," which evoked a long and interesting discussion. Cambridge has lost another df her old residents in the person of Mr Andrew Robinson, of the " Duke of Cambridge " Hotol. Mr Robinson was identified with Cambridge from its earliest infancy, being in fact the owner of the first house erected. Thus onß by one the old identities are passing from amongst us, and their places are being taken by another goner.ition. I am glad to see that the Government have commenced operations on the culvert at Mtirtyu'e gully. The old bridgo is in a most precarious state, and is likely to drop clown any day. A party of Constabulary are camped there, and the mason i7ork will, I believe, be commenced at once. The weather looks very doubtful. It is very hot and close, I think that there is thunder <$bout, but will not commit myself. — Own Correspondent,
