THE CROPS.

(Prowl Mears Sturges Monthly Circular of the Cora Trade.)
BUDS, JULY 27.—The wheat crop grunion to be as wood
in this district u we have bad it at any time for the past la
pars. The yield from the most forward will be good, and
we have every cspectation that the late will be equally so.
Getting will commence at the end of the corning week.
Barley and oats at present lock exceedingly floc The straw
is long and weak from the quick (Furth. It will be laid,
nub's there be a continuance of dry wewher. The potato
disease has shown itself in the leaf for the past fortnight,
though u yet the potato is not affected, nor the growth
ded.

PLYMOUTH, JULY 27.—Wheat has a healthy appearance,
and promises a good yield,notwithstandiog the uatavoarable
state of the weather when it was in flower. We do not anti-
cipate, hoes% er, that the yield per airs will be equal to that
of last year. It the weather be fine. reaping will be general
in the second week in August. Barley looks well, and,
though the plant suffered by the dry weather in June, it has
now recovered, and a good crop may be anticipated, under
favourable circumstances. Oats are well spoken of in the
districts where they are principally grown, and the crops in
this neighbourhood have • very good appearance. Beans
and P. as are not grown here. Potatoes have throughout
the season shown a vigorous growth, but the disease has now
made its appearance, and Is reported in some districts to be
very extensive in its effects.
ST. lon, HUNTINGDONSHIRE, JCLT 29.—The wheat crop,
although a large one at any time during the essaon,
was generally @opposed a month back to promise • good
yield to the straw ; but the golden maggot has done • great
dial of harm in this neighbourhood, and the ear turns out
badly filled in many icstances ; but the rains and absence of
soothing the last four or five days must have done as
immense deal of harm, and altogether we may safely call oar
wheats under an average. Beans are decidedly bed, fell of
fly, and the hot weather continued too long in flowering
time to allow the pod to set. They cannot prove above half
the crop of lest year. Peas, not many sown, and vary is
quality, but upon the whole as good a seep as usual. Barley
upon heavy land is • very good crop ; light lands suffered
from the drought, and will be thin; the crop altogether will
be • full average, or perhaps • little over. Turnips will
be a full crop. Potatoes, a large breadth planted sad leek
well ; but in some fit Ids there is the appearance d the die-
ease the last day or two.
TowcROYER, JULY 26.—The wheat plint is very much
affected with the yellow maggot, destroying one side of the
ear ; this will affect the yield to the extant of some bushels
per acre ; my opinion of forty acres in my own occupation,
is that it will be five or six bushels per acre; it seems very
general throughout the country ; bat still the crops are good,
thick on the ground, and will be bulky of straw. Barley
will be likely to be of a coarse quality, but a better crop than
last year, on the heavy land the red land barley was ia-
jored by the dry weather in June, and will be light: the late
showers have improved the late sown barley. Oats are a
lull average crop, and promise well ; this crop always re-
quiem • liberal supply of rain, and is now going on well.
Beans and peas will be below an average ; the former have
been affected with the black flies to some event, but the
pea crop has been the most injured ; and noes but the early
white will escape serious iftjury in the yield. Potatoes pro-
miss well, and have at present escaped the disease, but'
there are some appearances of its approach on the haulm.
NEAR GLASTONBURY, &rinses; JULY 30. —ln the
southern districts of this country some of our most prefab's'
wheats were laid soon after they were out in blossom,
the heavy rains sires have laid a large portion ; on some of
our most productive soils it is light and thin In the grain ;
besides this there is a great prevalence of what is called the
red gum, • small maggot destroying the corn soon after
kerning; from this eau* the produce will be lessened several
bushels per acre ; on the poor lands, and where the wheat
looked worst in the spring, it is now the most promising;
reaping has begun in a few imbrues. and if this be a line
week a good deal will be est next. Winter beans are good,
and with some 'slept/on the spring ones. The barley is laid
and will be inferior in quality. Peas but s poor crop.
The potato disease appeared. about the beginning of this
month, but it has become venous the last week ; hitherto it
has been confined to dome situations, hut now shows itself
more generally.
CLZOBURY, SALOP, JULY 30.—We: consider the wheat,
barley, and oats, this year, to be very good; more than an
average crop. The winter beans are good ; but the spring
beans, as well as the pem, are much affected with lies, wo
should call them not unlike kyostng grasshopper. The late
peas are a complete failure. The potatoes up to the pretest
time are very good, and quite fns from disease. The hope
never looked better. With the exception of late peas and
spring beans, all look well, and we expect the wheat in par-
ticular will yield well.
BLAERNIT, OLOUCESTIRSRIRO, JULY 30.—The appear-
thee Of the wheat crops in this neighbourhood, although not
generally so promising, either es to quality or quantity, as
last year, may be **oxidized good. The heavy rains have
sadly laid the best and early wheats, which must be iojit-
✓iots, bat the eaten% of mischief will much depend on the
future weeks of harvest. Cutting will commence in a few
days, and become general in the coons of seat week. The
barley crop will be • fair one, but not so good as last year.
Buns are in some iodinate badly blighted ; otherwise the
crop was likely to be meet abundant. The potato disease has
made Its appearance, but not to any serious extent.
PADBTOW, JULY 20.—The wheat mop promises to be very
fine ; • little rust is spoken of, but not to any extent. With
• favourable harvest time this crop will be of good quality,
and perhaps 6 to 10 per seat. over an average quantity.
Barley is generally looking fine, and will be an abundant
crop, 10 to 16 per sent, over an average, and with flee wea-
ther, a good sample. The seellest spots appear to be
ripen-
rathn unevenly.
.Potetose are abundant. The disease
