THE CROPS.

Wheat is much laid, and a great defect in the ear is
visible in moat of the white varieties ; the red, however, bids
fair to be an average crop. Reaping has commenced in a
few forward situations. Barley is bulky and much laid, and
requires sun, as also oats. Winter oats have proved' failure.
Beans and peas are lo king well. Potatoes are good and
free from disease.—Oxfor.l Chronicle.
The extraordinary wet weather has materially damaged
the crops of hay in this vicinity, and also caused the grain
crops to ' lodge" in many instances. It is feared that seri.us
results will ensue unless some amelioration of atmospheric
influences be speedily experienced.—Carmarthen Journal.
This Welk, some of oar farmers on the Downs, including
Mr. R. Wondmso, Glyede, Mr. Morris, Ranscombe, and
Mr. Stunt, S•intherisen, have commenced reaping, and i: is
expected that next week it will become pretty general.—
Susie x Express
Wheat h t has commenced in the neighbourhood of
Exeter; several fields of wheat have been cut in excellent
condition. If the fins weather of the past few days con-
tinues, there is every prospect of an abundant harvest in
this county.— Western Times.
During the last two days we have had bright summer,
with a promise of its continuance. A large part of the hay
crop, much 'Unwed, was still in the fields on Wednesday, but
we hope considerable progress will have been made in these
two hot and breezy days in clearing it. A later hay h t,
and we fear we might add a worse, has seldom been known.
The grain crops are a good deal laid, but they have received
much less injury than might have been feared. Should the
summer weather continue, they would *non ripen, and we
might yet be blessed with an abundant harvest.—Leeds

Mercury.
We have had torrents of rein since our last ; wet every
day; wet every night; pouring& ; but, happily, without
strong wind. The outlying hay is all but spoilt ; the corn
crops ere lees damaged than might have been expected, and
are very little laid. There are nem of change for the better,
and we pray for ft.—Carlisle Patriot.
Much hay has been seriously damaged, as a great
quantity bee been tanned to the heavy showers of the last
fortnight. We are now in the second week of August, and
grass, in not • few instances, remains uncut. The weather
at length, however, seems to be settling ; Friday was de.
I:ghtfully fine and warm, and a continuance for a fortn'ght
of such days would not only clear the hay fields, but would
be of isestimahle benefit in ripening the crops tricorn. The
rains have partially laid both barle and wheat, ernially
where the crops are heavy, hut thy e mischief donep is not
levy serious.—S'etfrordilre Advertiser.
After ell our dull dark days and forebodings, by God's blue-
ing, we are likely to have abundant crops ; the country looks
lemnriant,full of beanty,betokening plenty barman and beast.
If the present favourable weather continues, the cutting of
barley will be pretty general in the coming week or ten
days. Oats are changing fast. Wheat today in Derby
market has again dropped 3s. per quarter, with • dull sale.
Derbyshire Courier.
Very dismal weather for haymaking, and bleached and
insipid is it making the abort crop that exists. The heavier
fields of oats have been much laid ; but the wheat, thinner
of plant', stronger in stork, end less luxuriant, has been Imo
injured.—Wasgow Dotty Moil.
In a few instances, reaping has just commenced, sod if it
should be floe nest week a large breadth will be cut. no
g I report is that there is a decided deficiency in the ear,
and that the yield cannot be of en average amount. On the
other hand large importations may be relied on from'
America and other sources, so that prices will not be so high
se they otherwise would have Wis.—Berkshire Chrottick.
The sickle has commenced its operations in the parish of
Biddenham. near Bedford, and some other places in the
county, end should the weather prove favourable, in a few
days the h will be very general. The crops, patri-
cianly wheat, notwithstanding the severity of the winter
and their backward appearance in May, are very promising
both as to quantity and quality, and in many instances ars
considered by many equal to those of lost year. There Is
olio a considerable quantity of old wheat in store.—Bedford
Times.
The grain crops in the northern division of Wales present
generally a very healthy and promising aspect; and, though
the harvest will he • late one, there es every hope that ft
will prove en abundant one. The barley is in many di*
hints thin and light, bat wheat end oats are described i
being sound and heavy, the oats particularly being
fall
esred. Potatoes are also sound and fres from disease, ex-
wept in some districts of Carnarvonshire. where the blight
hes appeared, and the yield is good. A large quantity of hay
has been secured in excellent condition, and the swaths is
heavy salt thick. This Wren will prole an abundant one.
