THE WEATH P.P. AND THE Cito e.—in the district
round Neu-markt.t the wheat and barley crops are looking
healthy and strong, and will without doubt produce an
abundant harvest. There is a splendid crop of hay and
clover, most of which has been well got up. Turnips and
mangolds are growing fast and strong, and poteot.oi are at
present free from disease. An Ipswich letter says " The
growing crops look lasuriant, and are much benefitted by
the favourable weather of the past month. The wheat
ears, however, are small, and the present boisterous
weather is not favourable for the blooming of the plant.
