overtaken by an unexpected unfavourable season of harvest
time, yield above the average bulk, and all other field crops,
' with the exception of some barleys, are equally premien,.
The can has been most favourable for haymaking, and much
Is already gathered in. The crop is generally heavy.
Turnips and mangles are thriving, and all garden stuffs are
prolitic.—Liverpool Standard, of Tuesday.
LEICESTEINHIRE.—Wheat has irttatly improved. On
clay lands it is rather thin, but on rich soils there is some
fear of too much straw. As the early wheat is new in flower,
cutting will commence about the 12th of August. Some of
the late-sown spring corn on cold land is dill short, but on
the best they will be large. Oats, at present, have the worst
appearance, being short when they went into ear. Barley
has greatly improved, and on all except the poor soils, will
prove beyond an average. Beans have advanced rapidly ;
they were rather short when beginning to blossom, but from
the late showers they have shot up, and exhibit a very floe
bloom and luxuriant stem. Swedes look healthy. Potatoes,
for the most part, look well, and are growing rapidly.
lantawo.—The intelligence of the progress of the crops
continues most cheering. For many -years the country has
not been blessed with such a glorious prospect of an early
and abundant harvest. The late moist weather, so favourable
to vegetation, has been succeeded by most genial heat and
sunshine, a continuance of which will ensure the maturity
and early ripening of craps of every description. As to the corn
ps cro, there is every hope that the sufferings of the people
are nearly at an end • while the absence of disease in
haCato goes far to confound the exaggerated rumours which
ve been in circulation. In the counties of Carlow, Kil-
kenny, Waterford, and Cork, the potato crop does not ave-
rage more than one-tenth of what It was last year, batlt
looked better, and never appeared more tree from
ease of any kind. In the north and north-west, embracing
Londonderry, Donegal, Tyrone, Armagh, and other counties,
wheat, oats, barley, rye, and turnips, and other green crops,
promise a very abundant produce.
ANTllm.—The crops present a racietluxuriant appearance ;
but if a few refreshing showers were now to descend their
beneficial effects would really be incalculable to vegetation.
The accounts from all parts about the potato crop are of the
most flattering description.
Co itx.—The potato crop looks as sound and as fine as ever
it did. Disease was supposed to exiit, but the plant has
completely recovered from what was conceived to be " the
blight," and is now progressing rapidly to maturity, with
every fair prospect of yielding an abundant crop.
DONEGAL—Potato crops continue to present the most
luxuriant appearance in this and neighbouring counties.
LIMBRICE.—The people who grow early potatoes declare
that this year, up to the present date, they cannot discover
the &lightest trace of disease, though last year, long before
this period, they saw the beginning of the rot, and anxiously
watched its progress, both in the tuber and in the leaves and
stem. This looks well ; but then the breadth of potatoes
sown this year is very small, probably not more than one-
eighth of what it was last year.
MONAGHAN. —TLere is a fine prospect of abundance. The
wheat crop, now almost all shot, is as rich as could be desired.
The root crops are full of happy promise. In several in-
stances where, three weeks since, the potato.stalks presented
a yellow, jaundiced appearance about the top or flowering
part, the yellow has totally disappeared, and has been
succeeded by a lively green; and where the outside leaves
were burned up round the edges sad shrivelled, they
have again opened out in rich luxuriance.
Smoo.—Of potatoes finer or more luxuriant crops were at
no former time exhibited. This opinion is fully borne out
by the observation made to the sessions grand jury by the
assistantAarrister—no bad authority on matters of such
weighty importance. In the neighbouring districts new
potatoes are large, sound, and seem to be most abundant,
TIPPERARY.—The crops look better then for many years
past, and there is every expectation of an early and abundant
harvest. Potatoes appear healthy, and bopes are entertained
that they will turn out well. They so yet exhibit an appear-
ance of strength and luxuriance unequalled in any preceding
year.
TYRONE.—The potato crop is not only free from disease,
hut is coming fast to maturity in every direction. The dark
appearances on the stems and backs of the leaves has totally
disappeared, so that those which were then supposed to be
diseased are now as healthy and luxuriant as any of the others.
WEETNEATH.—The potato crop throughout this county is
perfectly free from the slightest appearance of disease.
SPOTLAND.—Brilliant sunshine has prevailed from morn-
ing till night, and frequent refreshing and wetting dews
throughout the night. The effects of this almost unprece-
dented tract of fine weather leave been daily visible upon
the growing crops, and is felt in the reduction of price in all
kinds of edibles springing from the earth. The heat for
some days last week was almost intolerable, the thermometer
ranging in the shade in the coolest exposure from 68 to 73
degrees of Fahrenheit. We might fill columns with ex-
tracts from the journals in all parts of the island received
since our last; but it would only be to repent perhaps, for
SOtimes, the same gratifying statement, namely, that every-
where the vegetable crops are strong and healthy ralli4l7-.
advancing to maturity and promising an early and ;her dant
return.--Caledonian Mercury.—The grain crops of every
kind are very rich and heavy, and will, in another week, be
generally in ear. The barley crop is everywhere in ear
already. The potatoes everywhere look well. Apprehen-
aion has peopled every person's brain with phantoms of the
disease, and every speck that is seen upon leaf or stilk is
immediately set own and exhibited as the incipient blight.
Thank Heaven, however, the crop seems as yet safe, and
there is good reason to hope that it will continue 60.
The market is pretty well supplied with early potatoes,
considering the time of the year and the comparatively
small number of potatoes planted. The hay harvest is com-
menced about the town, and a finer crop than the pre-
sent cou:d not present itself to the eye. The turnip crop
promises well, and in one or two pieces that we have seen,
hoeing has been already begun. Such is the state of the
crops in our neighbourhood, and from the details contained
in our contemporaries from all parts of the kingdom, we
think the gratifying prospect around Aberdeen may be taken
as a specimen of the general aspect of the whole land.—
Aberdeen Herald.

The appearance of the potato crop continues healthy look-
ing all over the county, with the exception of the Came of
Oowrie, where symptoms ►nalogous to the disease of the last
two peen have again manifested themselves in some instances.
Why it should have appeared so early in that district maybe
accounted for by their being planted earlier; but as in
several instances the plant is already coming into bloom,
without the least appearance of disease, either in stem or
shave, hopes are yet strong that, if it should prevail again
this season, it will be both more mitigated in its form and
partial in its sphere than formerly. The early varieties are
now coming to market without taint of any kind, and pro-
mise to be a full crop.—Perils Courier.

A STEAMER ON SHORE.—AecOntrta reached Liver-
pool yesterday that the Belfast steam-ship Sea King. Capt.
Gowan, went on shore on one of the Copeland Islands on
Sunday morning. No blame, it was said, can be attached to
the captain, as the fog was so intense that the utmost tautens
could cot avert the accident. It is feared the vessel will ha
a total wreck, an she is on her beam ends, full of water.
SCARCITY AND HIGH PRICEA Or MUTToN.—Under
the present circumstances, without taking into consideration
the possibility of some additional canape, acting in conjuno-
tion with that now existing, there is no prospect either of an
increase of supple to meet the fearfully rapid increase of
the population of this country, or a reduction of prices, ea
the ether hand, the main attributable cause is more and
more evident—almost in every market, and at least every
lair, an augmentation of priers cumin. The writer has di-
rected his attention to this subject for a considerable period,
and hods that among the farmers there is now a prevailing
custom to have what is called "a dry sheep farm," that is,
to graze (legs principally) on artificial food—say oil-cake,for instance, and this for two reasons, the chief of which
that sheep fed on oil cake produce manure of a very
strong character, the effect of which may for several
seasons be traced to the very inch. The other reason is,
that the land can be otherwise employed when not re-
quired for grazing purposes. Now, saying nothing of
the other causal of scarcity, which may also be partly traced
to disease, there is then a prevailing custom in full nine
parishes out of ten which will, if it cannot be prevented.
have a most injurious tendency on the community at large.
In order to keep prices at a standard, so as to place this
nutritious food within the reach of ail dames, the number
pridneed should increase in proportion more rapidly than
the population, because provision should be made for a draw-
1, back produced by the havoc of disease. It must here be
remembered that artificial food, which produces this excellent
manure, Cannot be used for fattening pummel. The writer
has made diligent inquiry in many mambos of Wiltshire, •
country proverbially excellent for its geeing downs, and
gads the result to be, that the number of lambs hrcd in 67
parishes the last three years has been 34 per cent. lens then
in 18144. This prevailing custom M Wiltshire extends to the
neighbouring counties, sad it is to be feared is national.—
Sherdorne Joannal.

Amnia :kliitthiLis.—We cannot tell the reader
how mach we were surprised to meet with the following
line in last Wednesday's debates. We think we can safely
say that there is net another line like it to be met with an
the whole we do-not.know how many retames of the won-
derful works of that prolific writer, Hansard. It is un-
doubtedly the great event of the session. The numerable
line in queotion, which is moro than sufficient to immor-
Wise the present parliament, is Lord Brougham rose,
and, after a few words, rat down again." Ibt only thing
which ever came near it wan one night last le.4111• when his
lord.hip, by some accident, did not speak at all. The num-
ber of tion.,ard recording that extraordinary curiosity is out
of print.—Punch.

market, the expectation that a French loan is likely
to be brought forward soon, and the uncertainty as to
the amount that may be required, are believed to indis-
pose capitalists from lending their suppport to the funds,
as well as speculators favourable to the rise from con-
tinuing their operations. The first quotations of
Consols at 881 to a money, and 884 to 1 for the
opening, were lower, by more than per cent., than
at the close of business yesterday. They have since
been sellers and buyers alternately at 883, and are
now buyers at that price, both for money and time.

white, 665. to 70s. ;; BUMP, 48a. to 622. ; Oats, 265. to 32a.
per quarter.

LIME., JULY 6.—There was no lack of supply of Wheat
at our market to-day, which met a dull sale at fully 10a. per
qr. reduction on the average of this day week. Highest
price, 171.

NEWARI, 317 LY 6.—A very scanty supply of Wheat was
this day exhibited, and purchasers were exceedingly scarce.
Wheat fully 11. per quarter lower than last week. No other
grain was brought forward.

NEWCASTLE, JULY 6.-The weather is now as fine as
possible ; but, during the greater part of last week, it
was cold and nogenial. At our market this morn-
ing, we had oaly two samples of Wheat from
the growers ; but factors being pressing sellers of
foreign, ex-granary, they had to submit to a reduction of fully
4s. per qr. upon Saturday's rates, and at this decline the
business done was extremely limited. Flour must be again
quoted 31. to 4s. lower, choice homedieids being sayable
at 621. to 63a. and tibias heft I. im_die„ Mei
quality. h• Oen fe Bede pudrik, and toe es a
considerable uction would have had to be submitted to.
In Beans, Peas, and other articles the tendency is down-
ward, and the business doing quite of a retail character.
THAME, JULY 6.-The market was well supplied, but
trade very dull, at a considerable reduction upon last week's
rates. Wheat, 700. to 765. per qr., being a reduction of Be.
to 10s. Barley, 48e. to 50e. Beans, 50s. to 545. Oats, 30s.
to 34e. Peas, 542.
DUBLIN, /1.1. v 6.-The value of Wheat and Oats is again
rather lower. We reduce our quotations Is. per barrel for
each. American Flour is also Is. to 2s. per barrel less.
Indian Corn and Meal maintain their value. The sale of
Oatmeal is quite retail, and the value of Barley merely
nominal. The following was the general currency : Wheat,
red, per 280 lbs., 40s. to 4 is. ; white, 435. to 475. Oats, per
196 lbs., 17s. to 21s. Barley, per 224 lbs., 20s. to 255. Oat-
meal, per cwt., 19s. to 245. Flour, seconds, in sacks, per cwt.,
235. to 245. ; American, per barrel, 355. to 38s. Indian Corn,
per 480 lbs.. 355. to 495.

BELFAST, JULY s.—The weather, since our last report,
has been most favourable for the growing of the forthcoming
crops, and, at present, in every locality, they have a splen-
did appearance. Owing to the fine weather, and the con-
tinued dull accounts from England, our grain market
has further declined, and the sales for breadetuffs are
very limited, consumers only purchasing for their im-
mediate wants. Indian Corn and Indian Corn Meal sell
from 51. to 10s. per ton cheaper, and American Flour is 2a.
per barrel lower. The best samples of Wheat declined 3d.
per cwt. Oats fell ed., and Barley from 6d. to Is. per cwt.
No alterations have taken place since Thursday, in the 9uota-
tions of Oatmeal and town-manufactured Flour. Since f riday
last, the weight of bread has been increased three-quarters
of a pound to the shilling loaf, and the four-pound loaf has
been reduced to seven pence. The following are our quota-
tions: Indian Corn: white, 101. se. to 111. ; yellow, 101. to
11/. per ton. I,dian Corn Meal ; white, 11/. Si. to 121. ;
yellow, 111, to 121. per ton. Wheat, red, 16s. 6d., to 17s. ;
white, 17s. to 170. 6d. per cwt.

DUNDALK, J tar s.—There was so little doing in the Corn
market to-day that quotations are only nominal. Farman,
were willing to submit to a considerable redaction in the
price of Wheat. Oats are very scarce, No Barley.

CHEESE.--BASINGSTOKE, JULY 7.—Several per-
ms were cheated at Fareham Fair, having purchased Cheese,
represented to be Single Somerset, at 62c, which, on being
cut, was found to he a most inferior Cheese, not worth half
what was given for it. We quote best Cheddar 74a. per cwt.;
new, 681. to 70s. Red Somerset, best, 661. ; new, 62.. Dou.
hie Gloucester, 604 to 625.; single, 561. to 5.9*. ; second,
50s. to 545. New Cowards, 40s. to 42a.; old, 445. to 465.

BASINOSTOICE, JULY 7.—The plantations around here
during the let week have grown wonderfully, outstripping
the vermin. In some gardens the bine is rather foul; yet
net more so than in other seasons, bad managers having in-
ferior crops. Taking the heart grounds at Farnham, and the ,1
best fields at Alton, Bentley, and Crandall, the Hops are
even looking better than they were at this period last year.
Duty computed here at 160,0001. to 165,0001.
WORCESTER, JULY 7.—The numerous reports received
this week from the Hop districts give most unfavourable
accounts of the plantations, many of the growers haviag now
made up their minds to a total failure of their crop, whilst
others have but faint hopes of their recovery. In a few
highly-cultivated gardens the bine is making an effort to do
something by throwing out fresh shoots, which, however, are
followed up by lice as fast as they appear, which will pro-
bably soon destroy the plant. The accounts are also bed from
the Weald of Kent, Sussex, and Farnham, and the duty has
dropped to 140,0001. Our market is 2a. per cwt. higher, but
the business doing is rather limited.

SKLNS.—BASINGSTOKE, JULY 7.—By tho bargain,
Is. 9d. each; single Skins, shorn, Bd. to 9d. Fat Down
Lamb-Skins, 3s. ; second quality, 2s.

CATTLE, &C.—LEEDS, JULY 7.—The supply of
Cattle at our market this morning was limited, yet of a good
quality. The show of Sheep was lees than that of last fair,
and for both descriptions of stock there was only slow sale,
the graziers standing out for higher prices for Beef, on
account of the fair that will be held in a few days.

•
SALISBURY, JULY 6.—The price of fat Calves 101. to
10s. 6d. per *sore pounds ; killed, 9s. to 9s. 61. Fat Pip,
10s. 6d. per score pounds.

STOURPORT, JULY 6.—This fair was very badly supplied
with stock, there being not a score pens of Sheep, nor above
a score head cf Cattle, and those not all sold. The prices
therefore are not worthy of quotation. Many buyers
attended, but left again before nine o'clock in the morning.
WHITECITURCH FAIR.—A large show ofSheep, principally
South Downs. For the hest wethers, for stock, from 50s. to
to 555. each was given. Ewes, 60s. to 669. Best Couples,
as. to 645. The Lambe were very fine, and fetched great
prices, some lean making from 30s. to 369. each. The pens
of fat four and six-tooth Down Wethers fetched 51. 4d. per
stone; some Ss. 6d. ; second quality, ss. to 61. 2d. Fat
Lambs, ss. Bd. to 69. • common, ss. 6d. Store Beasts and ,
Cows sold readily at good prices. Store Hogs and Piss sold
better than hitherto. Calves, fat, 10s. 6d. per score. Lean
Calves, 209. to 30s. each.
