Although Satur&iy is not a dny when much business is looked fOr 'in the Money Market; yet theee has been to-clay a' great deal doing both for Money and for the August Ac count ; the price has been for the former 814 A, and for the 1 itter 8111; most of the principal Ilrukers have been buying for the A count in October, the price for which time is 82-. 1 0. The Opinion of many is that there will be a considerable rise before that period.—Exchequer Bills are 355. to 375. premium. There has been a long article in the Morning rlironicle this week, in which a deplorable ac count was given of the state of the Peasantry to France. This account wits directly at variance , With that given by Lady ATORGAN in her recent Rork. Her account was doubtless as much too favoarable as the other was too gloomy an exag- Reration. Pebple in general wil! not understand the object of the mehncholy pi :titre, the tendency of fiveshich is to bring discredit on the present Government of France. We do not accuse the Morning Chronicle of such an intention, and rather suppose that it has been deceived by some body who has that purpose in view. It however ;Asserts, that it has always 'preserved an even c ourse, and that it has been '' exposed to t he attack- of the furious and designing of 141 1 Parties, of those who sought to Hatter 11 )e .

CHELMSFORD, Aud B.—The Wheat Harvest has partially commenced in various parts of [hit' county. the Wheats appe a r to di e i n tuo:t places particularly handsome, and not willista fi ding the •late rains and boisterous weather, are very. up right, which will give the advantage of its staatl ing longer, and require less fielding after it is severed. The Baileys and Oats are much behind the Wheats in most p!aces; there are, however, some exceptions, where the Oats are even forwarder than the Wheat.' Both Barleys and Oats promise a much greater ; produce than ex pected; the 'late rains having brought them forward, and renderio,-; them a much more even crop. The Pease are said to be a good crop. The hay harvest has been longer in duratio►► than known for ►nany years; there is still a consider able breadth to mow.
