Thitneh the heavy rains which fell on Saliirdny, and the
loreiniting of this week, interrupttil the harvest work, there
has been these two last days such fine wrath r as to render
the m•svhirf from wei inetinsiderable, and tig enable the
farmers in must parts of the country to finish their harvest
labours to their satisfaction, at least to stack their torn in
cxcelleut condition. But little grain of any deco r•ption re-
in.sins now to lw reaped its this part of Ireland, and that is
almost confined to the monntaineas distriets. With ripper,
to the quality and produce or. the crops, we have reeevied
information from differeot (matters in the Ninth of Ireland,
on which, we ran place much conf.detice. The Wheat, though
harvested in the hest manner, had Steen ao generally injured
by blight or runt, that few prime sample* of that grain .ire ex-
pected to be brought to market, and the arreahle tosolner is
below an average. No much ttttt re than morel, however, had
been sown in the last seam's, as to compensate that J. mit-tory,
and to render the general supply equal to the 'mein'. °collier
years. The crop of Oats has ben much more defective.
The illidatreesi of good eines of that :train have been few ;
