Already are they rating the way for this auspicious state of things. Paragraphs appear In most of the Puhlie Prints, stating, that we can expect no relief from &brim!, for the harvest has failed in " America, France, Flanders, and all the South of Europe ;" that the taltic, whence indeed we might import plenty,. will immediately be frozen' up; and that the Supply warehoused about London is' not more than sufficient for a very feW.weeksr constimp- Con.. 01 course the happy day anticipated- by Agricultural .Reports will soon arrive, and 'ihe zgar of misery be transferred from a gruMhling Party to a suffering people.
