THE CORN CROPS.—The report° received to-day
from different parts of the country
t' ad to the conclusion that
the crops generally have su ftred severely from the late unge-
nial weather, If
`-`de weather be not favourable for the pro-
cesses of ripening and harvesting, the dread of a bad defi-
cient harvest will turn out to have been but too well founded.

Tile weather has proved pretty favourable for our
Sportsmen, and we are glad to learn that they are enjoy-
ing a fair share of success. Subsequent accounts, how-
ever, confirm the statement made in our last that, though
there is a good breed of birds, many of them are too young.
