Folkestone and Hesper's race in the Granby was even more exciting than the open event, and perhaps no two-year-old encounter was ever marked by such an exhibition of gameness as that displayed by , Mr. Merry's colt.

The Atlantic and Great Western Railway, 378 miles in length, is the middle link of a grand national line of 6 feet gauge, 1,200 miles in length, from New York through the great states of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois to St. Louis ; of which about 800 miles have been many years in operatio n . I t possesses extraordinary facili ties for construction, having no tunnels, no deep cuttings, few bridges, and no ferries ; avoiding the Allegheny Mountains on the south, and occupying the natural channel of trade be tween them and the Lakes on the north. It traverses some of the most fertile portions of New York, Pennsylvania, and the "Garden of Ohio." It passes through the large shire towns or centres of fourteen counties in the State of Ohio,with more than one million of inhabitants, and a taxable property of 260 millions of d o ll ars, and accommodates seventeen cities and towns in New York and Pennsylvania heretofore without rail way facilities. The differing laws of the States of New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, through which the line runs, renders separate or ganisations necessary, though practically the whole is one line. The present issue is confined to the bonds of "New York," that section being now finished; a considerable por tion of the works in " Pennsylvania" is also finished, and the "Ohio" section is in a risey forward state,,and can be com pleted in 1861. As end, of these sections is opened the bonds will be issued to the public, all the funds being provided in the meantime by calls on stock and advances by the con tractors. • The Atlantic and Great Western connects with the New York and Erie (of which it is a continuation) at Salamanca, about 100 miles from New York ; and the New York and Erie Railway Company deem " the connexion to be of such im portance, from the large and valuable traffic which it will concentrate and throw on their road, that they have cove nanted to pay to the Atlantic and Great Western a bonus of 10 per cent. on the gross receipts, from freight and passengers, during five years from completion ; and b per cent., for an other five years th erea ft er. " Thi s bonus is especially appro priated to securing the interest on bonds. The association of M. De Salamanca with the Atlantic and Great Western Railway is a voucher.that the merits of the enterprise are not overstated, and an assurance that the whole line will be rapidly completed and its resources developed. The bonds are secured by a first registered mortgage, con stituting a lien on the income and all corporate rights, privi leges, lands, franchises, plant, and property of the railway; and give the holder the right of conversion into shares at par until let January, 1864. The bonds of the present issue are of 1,000 dollars each, re deemable at par in twenty years, and transferable without stamp or endorsement, with interest coupons attached, and will 13C paid on the Ist of January and Ist of July in each year, at the Bank of London, Threadneedle-street, London, and at the banking-house of Messrs. Duncan, Sherman, and Co., New York. The bonds will be issued at 80 per cent., or £lBO sterling per bond—to include the coupon due Ist January, 1861, and will be delivered on Ist November, or earlier, at option of buyers. The road represented by these bonds is finished, its cost is known and liquidated, and its interest and dividends will be paid from its actual earnings. The value of the security offered may behest appreciated by comparison with the four great lines of the same system. The total income of these lines, for the last four years, has been as follows : B Erie.

Mr. EDWARD DAVIESON, Surgeon-Dentist, has introduced a material for the construction of ARTIFICIAL TEETH so extraor dinary that nature appears to have made good the ravages of TIME, DISEASE, or ACCIDENT, and when fitted detec tion is impossible even though the wearer's mouth be closely examined. The price is so moderate that it is within the reach of all, and it is fitted without springs or other unsightly fastenings. The removal of stumps is unnecessary, and thus all pain is avoided. Mr. Edward Davieson invites one visit of inspection to his establishment, which will convince the most sceptical of the truth and straightforwardness of this statement. The LIQUID ENAMEL, for Stopping Decayed Teeth, is ENAMEL WHITE, keeps its colour, and lasts for ever. It is invaluable for Front Teeth. Attendance daily from Ten till Six. Consultations free.

Henry O'Neil, moulder, Bridgegate, and his companion, Barney Malone, hired each a skiff from Mr. M‘Whirter's Aquatic Saloon, about mid-day. They proceeded all right until, when nearly opposite to the Round Seat, O'Neil missed a stroke with his oar, which cau se d hi s frail bark to upset. His companion, dumbfoundered, instead of going to his rescue, pulled into shore, le av i ng hi m to his fate.

AYLESBURY, WEDNESDAY. The annual meeting of the Royal Buckingham shire and C en t ra l Bucks United Agricultural Asso ciation was held in this town to-day, when, as usual, there was an exhibition of stock, butter, and agricultural implements. In the afternoon about 120 gentlemen sat down in the County-hall to a dinner, supplied by Mr. Fowler, of the White Hart. Mr. H. B. Harvey, in the absence of Lord Chesham, occupied the chair ; and there were also present the Might Hon. B. Disraeli, M.P., Mr. 'F. T. Bernard, M.P., 'Air. S. Smith, M P., Mr. G. C. G. Pigott, Col. Smith Dorrien, the Rev. J. Wil liams, Mr. R. Rose, Mr. Acton Tindal, and the principal tenant farmers of the district. The usual toasts having been drunk, The CHAIRMAN proposed the health of the " Army and Navy," coupled with the " Volunteers." (Cheers) He sincerely trusted that our troops might long steer clear of the difficulties which now beset the southern nations of Europe ; but, if they should ever be compelled to take the field again, he was sure they would gain those laurels which they had always sought and always acquired. (Cheers.) With regard to the Volunteer movement, he was happy to say that it had made great progress in the town of Aylesbury, and he was satisfied that it would have a permanent beneficial effect upon the whole continent of Europe. (Cheers.) Mr. PIGOTT, in responding, expressed a strong opinion that the great mass of the French people were anxious to maintain friendly relations with this country. Indeed, a celebrated French writer, who was well acquainted with England, had re cently warned his countrymen that if they thought of going to war with Great Britain they had better think twice upon it, as, in the first place, they would have to encounter those old wooden walls, which had lost nothing of their firmness and power; in the second, they would have to meet an army which, if not so numerous as those upon the conti nent, was an army which whenever it was neces sary to fight had always conquered ; and in the third, they would meet a nation in arms. (Cheers.) It was said when the idea of the Volunteers was first broached a few months ago, that a panic had seized the country. There was, however, no panic at all. We know of nothing of the kind in this country, though, no doubt, there had been a just surprise and indignation that we should be assured on the very best authority that if 100,000 men were to land upon the shores of the country they might march from Lands'-end to John o'Groat's, without meet ing the slightest opposition. (Hear.) The whole nation rose as one man, and said that such a state of affairs should no longer continue, and the result had been the magnificent body of Volunteers now scattered throughout the country. (Cheers.) Mr, A. TINDAL also responded on behalf of the Volunteers. The CHAIRMAN next gave the health of the " Members for the county of Bucks and the borough of Aylesbury." (Loud cheers.) The Right Hon. Mr. DISRAELI, M.P., on rising to respond, was received with great cheering. He said—l beg leave to return you, on the part of the county members, our thanks for the kind manner in which you have received the proposal to drink their healths. Although my colleagues on this oc casion are absent, I know—at least lam convinced —that their absence may be accounted for by cir cumstances which rendered it impossible for them to be present. I can, however, truly say what I am sure they must always feel that there are no occa sions when their presence could be more agreeable to themselves than on occasions like that which has brought us together to-day. And, gentlemen, I can assure you most unfeignedly that after all the labours of public life, in which through your con fidence, and through your confidence alone, I and my colleagues take some part, it is a very great de light to find ourselves among our friends and neigh bours again, and among our friends and neighbours whom we have known and honoured for so many years, from whom we have received so many repeated proofs of good feeling and trust, and whose good opi nion it is the principal object of our life ever to retain. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, I am more pleased to meet you when I remember the occasion and the circum stances which bring us together. We arc met to support with our presence and our sympathetic feeling one of those societies which, in my opinion, exercise so beneficial a result upon the general feel ing and conduct of all classes connected with agri culture. It is no longer necessary to rise and vindi cate the design and the management of these agri cultural associations. They have become, if not for mally and legally, in spirit and in truth, part of the institutions of the country, and all classes and all parties combine in acknowledging the advantageous consequences which they exercise upon the general life and pursuits of this country. When this society was first formed—and I took a particular interest in its formation, for I was one of its original mem bers—it limited itself merely to the recognition of the virtues of the humblest classes connected with English agriculture ; in recognising and rewarding the merits of those who by their service aid their skill in husbandry had deserved that recognition on the part of their neighbours. That was a most laud able, but in a certain sense it was a limited object ; but that object, limited as it was, was for a consi derable period viewed by some persons with cold ness, and even occasionally with derision ; but all that has passed. It has passed because every man connected with rural life has long arrived at a con viction that these associations, even with that limited object, have done much good—that they have ele vated the tone of this country with the labour of the land, and that they have brought about a result which those connected with the labour of the land have shown they highly appreciate. (Hear, hear.) Every one knows that those rewards which have been described as not commensurate with the merits they recognise, are rewards which are eagerly sought and are highly appreciated by those who re ceive them, and there never was a greater mistake than to suppose that the labourers on land ever be lieved for a moment that their merits were valued by the mere pecuniary amount they received. They have always sought these rewards, and have always cherished them because they looked upon them as a public recognition of their private virtues. (Cheers.) I could give you, if necessary, many instances to prove the truth of this assertion ; but there is one which I will touch upon very briefly, because it oc curred only this morning, and is to me quite a con vincing proof of the position I wish to enforce. It is the case of a man who, having worked on a farm for 45 years, in the same service, with, I need not say, the respect of all those acquainted with him, had several times been requested to advance his claim for those favours which, by the regulations of this society, he was entitled to, but which he has re peatedly said he would not come forward to claim until he had completed his 50th year of service. That shows that in the mind of this man it was not the pecuniary reward but the public recognition of his long-enduring private virtues which he sought and which he valued. (Hear, hear.) These, though ever laudable, were the limited objects of the society when it was first formed. As time has advanced, in obedience to that law of development and pro gress without which no society and no institution can long exist, we have found it necessary to increase the area of our exertions, and to aim at other and more extensive objects than those we originally proposed. So in time we have found it advisable to appeal to that spirit of competition and emulation which pervades all classes, and to ask not merely the peasants and labourers on land to exert themselves to obtain the recognition of their superior qualities, but the farmer and the landed proprietor also to prove their skill and their anxiety to obtain a public recognition of their attempts to advance the public welfare. By this course we are now the means by which rewards are offered to those who produce crops of the best roots, and who exhibit most supe rior stock. These are great and important objects of which we ought not to lose sight, and the Royal_ Bucks Ag r i cu l tura l Assoc i ation, the ann i versary - e which we h ave met h ere to o b serve, has a i me d at, f and I hope will continue to accomplish, those o b jects. (Ch eers. ) At the same t i me I s hould not myself b e s p ea ki ng w i t h t h at f ran k ness with which upon all you always permit me to address you . occasions if I were to say, as is been soi n u e t t et i z ti e i dourm e4 e s n a t id at a id t similar meetings, that I have show yard to-day, and was struck with amazement I did see wonder at what I have witn f e r s i s en d ds great e,•edit, some things there which do and I think but I did not see enough of when we dine after good or things, it of very great experience, that importance, our these exhibitions, and sum 1 what is the truth of we should not shut our eyes ' . t°. what has occurred, because it is by annually taking stock of our progress, as it were, that we may re gulate our exertions for the coming year. (Hear.) Gentlemen, I did not see with respect to horned cattle, or even sheep, that promise fulfilled w hi c h last year was even so prominently made, and though it may be accounted for to sonic extent by the un fortunate weather which has occurred at the period of our union, preventi n g some of our best f r i en d s from exhibiting, still we must never for a moment forget that it is by progress, by constant efforts at e xcellence, that societies like th e present can alone be maintained with spirit and advantage. I would ies j had hoped it was on the whole for the advantage o f to a not have made these ob servat i ons had I not recol lected that although the old agr i cultural association in this county is more than a quarter of a century old, the peculiar institution whos e ann i versary we t a n d eir determinedenerg are now celebrating is really almost i n i ts cradle. This is only the second year orthe exist ence of the amalgamated society. I heard with very great tapleasurenlgam amalgamate that these resourcesese ° the county, and I am confident myself that that amalgamation, founded as it was on sound princi ples, will, if we are d e t erm in e d to carry them out, seiet societies and h ultimately accomplish all the most sanguine have anticipated. But success will not be attained by being blind to the real circumstances of the case. Amalgamaiion is an admirable arrangement under favourable circumstances, such as I thought were those under which the amalgamation of the two societies in this county took place ; but when you amalgamate you diminish rivalry, and if amalgama tion has virtues emulation can also produce wonders. Emulation has always two strings to its bow; amal gatnation, we flatter ourselves, has only one string— has that string of a stouter character. I trust we shall not be disappointed in the character of our amalga mation ; that we shall not have only one string to our bow, and that not a bit stronger than that which we had before. We must avoid that as much as possible ; and in the constitution of our society we must attempt to arrive at not merely the ad vantages of rivalry, but also the benefits of perma nence. Those were the objects we proposed to our selves in amalgamating the two societies. I am sure there are in the room members of both the original societies met together with only one ad mirable object, and they will not at all misconceive the spirit of my observations. They are made with a sincere desird to see the Royal Bucks Association not only maintain, but increase its character in public estimation. We can only do that by all of us putting our shoulders to the wheel, and all classes of our society must unite together, and by that union of exertion we shall accomplish the great object we have at heart. It becomes, then, I think, the principal proprietors of this country, the leading men among our tenant farmers, and all con nected with the various classes of our rural life, to remember that it is only by union that societies of this kind can be maintained—that the objects of such societies are the most admirable that can possibly propose themselves to a pro gressive and free people like the free people of this country. (Cheers.) Allow me in reference to the toast you have drunk, to say that it is an honour to represent men who will carry out and accomplish the objects this society has publicly de clared it is its intention to fulfil. I thank you most sincerely for the honour you have done :me. To possess your confidence and deserve your good feel ing is one of the greatest objects of my life, and at all times it is to me a source of great gratification to find myself with you ; and, on occasions like the present, I am happy that while I am performing a public duty I am also enjoying a private gratifica tion. (Loud cheers.) Mr. BERNARD, M.P., also briefly responded ; and several other toasts, principally of a local character having been given, the proceedings terminated. FINANCE'S OP AUST.RIA. A letter from Vienna, dated Sept. 22, says, on the 31st of last July, M. von Plener, the Chief of the Finance Department, gave to the Council of the Empire a detailed account of the state of the finances, and yesterday Count Clam read to the august assembly the report of the Committee of Twenty-one on the subject. As the Committee did not believe the unsatisfactory state of the finances to be a consequence of "momentary difficulties," it deemed it advisable to examine into the operations of the Finance Department during the last ten years. The result of the investigation was as fol lows : " During the last ten years the nation has paid in the way.of taxation 500,000,000f1. more than it did in the preceding decennary. The national debt is 1,300,000,000f1. larger than it was ten years ago, and property belonging to the State (railroads,&c.) has been sold for more than 100,000,000 fl." The Committee acknowledged that the unsettled state of affairs in Europe had largely contributed to the financial embarrassments of Austria, but it is of opinion that the outlay for the military and civil administration of the empire has long been far too large. Enormous sums have been expended in trying administrative experiments ~in Hungary, and a great deal of money has been sunk in unsuc cessful financial operations. Notwithstanding the retrenchments that have been made, the deficit in 1861 will,should peace b e maintained, be 39,000,0011 , and 25,000,00011. in the following year.* The ex traordinary " war contribution' (kriegs-zuschlay), which amounts to 32,000,000f1. per annum, figures as part of the revenue in the budget for 1861, but the tax is so exceedingly onerous that it cannot long, be levied. The committee is of opinion that the Go vernment cannot, for the time being, calculate on any increase in the revenue, as a great part of the po pulation of the empire is impoverished. As no fur ther retrenchments can at present be made in the different ministries, the only way of diminishing the burden which weighs so heavily on the State is, "to reduce the interest on the National Debt by means of financial operations based on the prin ciples of freewill (freiwilligkeit) and inviolability of the obligations which have been entered into by the State." After having made this suggestion, the Committee expatiates on the evils arising from the deterioration of the paper currency and the continual variation in the rate of exchange, but it at the same time advises the Finance Department not to have recourse to any extraordinary financial measures in order to remedy them. There is a pas sage in the report of the Committee which does not admit of a literal translation, but the sense of it is, that a bankruptcy must ensue if the Chief of the Finance Department should attempt to uphold the system which has hitherto been pursued. At the end of the report it is said that a satisfactory arrangement of the internal affairs of the empire, and the consequent restoration of confidence, will do much towards the restoration of the sunken credit of Austria, " for it must be acknowledged," says the Committee, "that the present organization of the empire has shaken rather than strengthened the confidence of the public in its stability." While Count Clam was reading the report he was frequently interrupted by M. von Plener, who declared that the opinions expressed were "exag gerated," and could not fail to produce a very bad impression. He denied that the population of the empire was impoverished, and in support of his assertion told the Reichsrath that the cons umption of coffee and suga r was grea t er th an ever. Count Clam, Prince Salm (R e i c h sra th for life), Pr. and _ Strasser (Tyrol), M. Toperc z er (Hungary) , several other persons spoke on the subject of:tlei; alleged impoverishment of the e mpire, but the t they might have saved themsel ves the trouble, t fact is so patent th a t it a d m it s of no denial.ri The u ri tu Liao necessities of life rise in price in propo t deterioration of the paper currency,r and conse quently the Austrians must becent.,er, now that Po than they silver is at a premium of 3 4 were when bank-notes and sil Loan ! which wasver were of the same nominal value.

Do but change the system, and the State will thrive again." Count Szechen was loudly cheered by all the members of the Reichsrath, to the annoyance of the Minister president, who is said to have looked as black as thunder. M. Mauger observed that the Chief of the Finance Department had not long since declared that nothing but liberal (gluckliche) institutions would restore public confidence, but he had hesi tated to pronounce the word "constitution." lie (Manger) Was of opinion that nothing but a consti tution for the whole Empire (reichsrolassung) would restore confidence at home and abroad. The Minister-President replied that he was unable to see what connexion there was between a constitu tion and the state of the currency, and then declared that England had been " unable" to resume her cash payments until the year 1820. As no one cor rected his statement Count Reehberg inferred frorn the supposed fact that Austria is not now in a worse position than England was in 1819. Before he resumed his seat the Minister-President again said Government would realise the promises made by his Alajesty the Emperor in his autograph letter of April 19,1860. During the sitting there was a sharp discussion between Count Andrassy and pr Hein (a member of the minority in theGrand t _ Com mittee.) The Hungarian nobleman said that * No one ever speaks of the deficit for the year 186°' but it cannot be leas than, 60,000 of florins. people were much rose . ATony ' courts" (manorial courts), L. , 11 /0 the German provice of Si - th_ abolition was one of the wr_ good thi ngs which the Schwarzenberg-Bac, ft Governm ent had done. As Count Attdra l SET appeared to be getting irritated, Count s not th e and reminded him that it Yirk ./ proper moment for entering into a discus sion on a matter which was more or less h. 'unlatch connected with the reorganisation of the 6 °l3l lgre. As no one wished to make any further observa,. 4l ons on that part of the re p or t o f the committee whit* relates to financial matte-- " Archduke-Presi dent, at 3 o'clock p.m., d that the sitting was at an end. The great pumice' debate began this morning at 11 o'cloak. The German part of the population of Austria is extremely desirous to have a " general constitu tion" for the empire, b u t it i s no t lik e ly that they will have one. In aristocratic circles it is related, but I am unable to sly with what degree of truth, that the Emperor plainly told the Grand Duke of llesse Darmstadt that he would grant a constitu tion to hi • s subjects when he ceased to wear a sword , " but not borers. " Very similar language is used by the high mili tary men who have the ear of the Emperor, and it therefore safely be conclud e d that Austria is oninat3he eve of a very great crisis.. The Hungarians are resolved to recover their con stitutional rights and privileg es, and it is certain that they calculate on assista nce from abroad. A great deal of French gold is in circulation in Han gary, and it is strongly suspected that large quan tities of arms have recently been smuggled intothe country. Not only is the name of Kossuth again in the mouths of the people, but a few days ago the authorities laid hands on " Kossuth-notes" of the 1,200 florins. Travellers who return from H ungery state that the inhabitants of that country appear to be quite indifferent to what is said and done in the Reichsrath. The reconciliation between the Mag.. yars and South Slaves is said to be " perfect." Re. cently several " ill-disposed" persons have been arrested in the Voivodina, and at onee transported to the interior of the empire. It is related that Count Rechbergwas in such a ba4 humour yester day evening that none of his people dared to ap proach him. Great preparations are being made for the de fence of Venetia and the coast of Dalmatia, which is much more likely to be attacked by Garibaldi than Istria, which forms a part of the German federal territory. Fiume belongs to the maritime coast of Croatia, and consequently does not e njoy the protection of the Bund. The Duke of Modena is here said to have met with an enthusiastic recep tion at Bassano, where his troops are encamped ; but Austrian military men have hinted to me that the Modenese are kept at such a distance from the frontier because many of them have displayed desire to join their fellow-countrymen on the ether side of the Po. Rear-Admiral von Pohl has been here, and after having had an audience of the Em peror he left without delay for Trieste. The Aus trian ships of war are assembling at Lissa, where there is a very large and secure harbour. In Austrian official circles it is not believed that the Emperor Napoleon will go to Warsaw. If the King of the Belgians should feel inclined to go there he will receive an invitation. Accordingto official advices from Belgrade Prince Milosch is still alive. In consequence of the receipt of a private telegram from Paris, announcing that the Emperor Napoleon would go to Warsaw, there was a great improvement on 'Change to-day. SEPT. 23. The discussion relative to the future organization. of the empire made but little progress yesterday, but the Reichsrath, on the proposition of Count Clam, unanimously resolved to insert the subjoined passage in its report to the Emperor : " In consideration of the fact that in the management of the press in general, and of the periodical press in particular, administrative (police) measures and judicial functions (Funktionen) so interfere with each other that there is no well-defined (sichere) line of demarcation between legal in tervention and arbitrary proceedings, and in consideration of the unpleasantness arising from the want of a well secured legal basis for the press, which must indirectly have an unfavourable influence on the public welfare, it becomes evident that a speedy regulation of the affairs of the press in the sense of lawful freedom of action, is an absolute (unabweisbar) necessity." Yesterday it was officially announced at Trieste that Ancona is blockaded. The Stadtholder of Venice has announced that the military patrols have received orders to make efficient use of their weapons should resistance be offered to them in their endeavours to prevent the introduction of arms and incendiary proclamations, and the entrance of dangerous persons into the kingdom. The coasts (of Venetia ?) will no longer be lighted up. AGRICULI URAL PROSPECT.. A very unfavourable chan , re in the weather took place at the comm encemen t of the week, much rain having fallen from 1 p,in. on the first day and throughout the afternoon. The folloss ing morning was also showery, putting a complete stop to har vest work wherever it extended. On Tuesday there was rain up to noon, and another stoppage caused. We will still allow our friends to speak for them selves. On that day, from Liverpool, they re ported :—" The weather last week up to Saturday was favourable for harvest work; since then, how ever, we have had incessant rains, with a close at mosphere, likely to be injurious to the wheat al ready cut and in the fields, which forms the chief portion of the present crops. Today the weather has become fine again." From Hull, the same day, it was stated :—" The weather up to the 15th was fine, with high, drying winds, which were very favourable for harvest operations, but owing to the crops being cut unusually green this season not much corn has been secured in this locality. Since Saturday we have had heavy rain, which must again cause damage and great delay in harvesting.' From Suffolk, the same day, our friends said, " Until Saturday evening fine weather continued without interruption, and considerable breadth of our cereals was safely secured, and recently in good merchantable condition. Since Saturday, when the wind changed to the south, the temperature became many degrees warmer, and more or less rain lifts continued to fall ; and though the barley will s tand, from its previous hardiness and coarseness,.l amount of rain, we hope the weather up, or much damage will ensue.

Fortunately in our high lands very little corn is in the fields ; but a large proportion is out in the fens." From the east coast of Scotland on Wednesday our friends state :—" The weather since our last has been, on the whole, good, and our farmers have made considerable progress wi • th harvest work." From the west coast the same day it was stated : ~ Harvest work proceeds, but the air . .. has been soft and damp, with o • a nd damp, th t occasional light rain since Satur 7 progress with wheat is much retarded." From No a ' rfolk the same day it was said :—" Since Saturday last deal rain aof has fallen, and the residue of theharvest quite at a standstill. The wheat crop, however, may be said to be secured ; but there is a large quantity of barley abroad. To day is fine." From Cornwall advices indicate that the harvest in that county is finished. Wheat there, with a good bulk of straw, will be found in many cases deficient in yield, as the sample is small and shrivelled. There may be some exception, but in general it is in bad condition, being saved in the wet and unsettled weather. " The barley was ripe and saved in the fortnight of fine weather which we had, and is in good condition, the best sample we have had for several years, and a full average crop. Oats are not largely sown here, but more than usual this year, and a largo crop." Friday proved fine after some heavy rain the previous night, and our accounts written on that day are rather more cheering. From Lincolnshire it was stated :—" After a long rest (from Friday not yet carting has again commenced in good earne st , and the corn is getting in good condition, Tbu t le ' dry enough for immediate thrashing. here to the however, we arc glad to say, no harm don e has not corn by last week's rain, and f!rofit"'g we hear, vet been shown.
