STATE OF THE CROP&

(From Sturge's Monthly Corn Cirmilar.)

CiLoncEmit, July 2.—After much cb•ervation and in-
(Autry, the writer is of opinion that the wheat in general i•
likely to be a full ge crop, with the • sception of that
grows on wet or badly drained Linde • hut it is better
spoken of on the hills than in the valet. The harvest will be
late, and consequently there will be more ride in securing it.
The barley crop is more irregular, and is expected to vary
much in qu ntity and quality, but it is too early to form a
decided judgment upon it. Oats are but little grown in this
di•triet, out in aen•ral those sown promise a far crop. The
bean, are everywhere well tpdeen of; they li.ok beautiful in
nearly all the fi Ids the writer has seen, and there is a prat-
yect of an aburr:an' cr P4IP, where grown, are also,
with few exeeptione, hood. Although there are some com-
plaints of a little taint in the potatnee, they look very fine in
the fields, and on tete wiiule promise welt so for for a crop.
Au unusual event of ground has been planted, acid the early
ones already brought to WA.. are very good. The reports of
the turnip., bith Swedes and common, are in general quite
favourable. Mist of the crops of hay are good, end to a
large extent have been already well secure I. The foregoing
observation refer to a district of from twelve to twenty miles
round this city.
PLINSWICL, Jute 30.—Tho crops in general look well.
Wheat aft ie.& a promise of a fair crop, if the weather con-
tinues fine ; but the h will be late. The barley crop
is rather uncertain; in some fi Ids it &metre to be injured by
the late frosts in the spring. £he beaus are very fine, and
promise an abundant crop.
REDMARLET, WORCESTERSHIRE, June 33.—The crops in
this quarter are likely to we good, except on very wet soils.
Beats and wheat in particular Fick well, but hervest will
not be general before the mld..le at August. There is a
prospect of a good crop of turni, s.
TLWILESBUILY, June 30.—The prs&se of a crop of wheat
is but iudifferent,—not more than two-thirds of what was at
one time expected. Burley is irregular. The beans in this
quarter promise well for a crop.
MORETON-ON-THE Mutsu, June 30 —Wheat better than
last year, but harvest will be late. The Barley looks well,
and in good season. The beans are Road.
•

Svuouro. June 30.—The wheat crop at prevent prnoisrs
well. Barley not n 1 good, but the bear aat present are very
flue.
