THE WEATHER AND THE CROPS.

Rau YOlaa SH IRS AND NORTH LtstcoLssainz —From '
informatioa shrived from numerous places io the East Rid-
ing,
tad several in North Lincolnshire, it appears that on •
very large portion of the wohlii, and to a considerable extent
spot the clays, the hay harvest was at its height when it was
sdad by the storm of Sunday last. A considerable
eweritit, be not 110,1 r half the crap, had been cot, and that
which had ben lei 1, pr or to er in the intervals between
the ride, was obtaieset in good condition. But the qua-
lity of all that wee either eat, or nearly ripe for cutting
when that worm came on, his been 'featly, and it is be-
lieved, irreuieeaSly damaged. Whil.t the accounts
from all parts of the riding, and from Lincolnshire ale),
repreeest a greet breed.h of warred as being laid by the
Moran, cue of it was in such a state up to Tingley
morning as to exam any apprehensive. The crop
was is het toe far advanced to be injured by being laid.
The wheats generally are this week spoken of as heavy
crops. No other grain bad suffered by the storm, but it was
calculated that toth turnips and potatoes would be greatly
improved thereby, should the winnow net he prolonged.
We wall give repers from &bunt a score different places ;
they all, however, with a few variations in detail, bear out
this general view. Pelee is also improved by the rain.—

RAIWOUNIIIII.—A correspondent who has recently tra-
velled over the greater part of the adj 'thing county of
Radacr, says that he never remembers the wheat Prop look-
ing better than at present. Should the harvest be father-
able, the predate, both as to bulk lad quality, will, he
thinks, be the finest ever witnessed. Oats are weak in the
straw, bat the defideney may be made out in the weight and
quality of the grate. Barley, the most critical crop for
some parts of Width, promises well on these descriptions of
laud which are suitable to this kind et corn. There is not
the slightest trace of the potato draosse.—Hereford Journal.
