in the earth for that intent ; the latter crops that wer
planted are looking well, and have every appearance of a,
good crop, if the heat of the -soil which the showersbac-
produced, after so much dry weather, do not tb force !
young potatoes to radicate in the earth before they itt'a
matured sufficiently to be taken up for housing.

EAST LOTHIAN.
On the 19th and 20th of the month, a heavy .storm of
wind and rain from the east, had rather a threatening ar
pearance, and last Saturday the weather presented sow
thing of a similar character. It is gratifying, however, to
state that the only effects yet perceptible from that circuro;
stance, is the laying down of the heavier part of the wheat
and barley crops, but as the grain in the ears was general*"
well filled before the rains, a dry atmosphere and clear oar
shine will speedily set to rights every thing connected Vit''
that business. Field operations during the month 118°
proceeded in the most satisfactory manner, and follows gene-
rally are in fine condition ; the horse and hand hoeing °f
turnips and potatoes have been conducted with regularity
and despatch, the rains having been quite sufficient to bring
these crops forward with that vigour and rapidity, necessary
to ensure an abundant produce. In many cases the former
of these articles on soils really suited to the plant, look truly
splendid. It is now everywhere admitted that the wheat i 5
an excellent crop, as although in some situations there may
be but a moderate bulk of straw, yet the ears generally pre-
sent a plumpness and weight rarely surpassed, giving Lure
indication of being highly productive in the barn. 'II
late barley and oats have shot out, and improved a_
much as could have been expected. White peas and heal!'
have now every appearance of being a full average both 10
bulk and in produce. In the grain markets, the supPlY has
been equal to the demand, and there still appears enough'
in the stack yards to meet the new crops, even although
they had been a week or two later than they actually are;
Harvest will commence next week with bgth wheat and
barley in many situations, and by the middle of the month
will likely be general throughout the country. Much has
lately been said in a high quarter about agricultural distress*
and efforts made to induce the government to interfere
with legislative attempts to alleviate that distress. But if
the expectations regarding the wheat crop are happily re'
lized, and the produce turns out equal to that of either t,
the last two seasons, that circumstance, combined with the
principle generally acted on by the proprietors, of regular
ing their rents by the prices of grain, will place the far:
mers of this county alike indifferent to, and independent ot
any petty relief that could be obtained from the moverneotcl
referred to. The demand for wool has been brisk, an
prices very high. Black faced or Highland 20s. to 215"
Cheviots 325. to 365., and Leicester and half bred betwer°,
that and Cheviot hog wool, from 425. to 455. per stone °`
241 b. These prices are nearly double to what the saTee
kinds of wool brought only two or three years ago, and t,,
advance has been as great in the pastoral districts of t'
kingdom.—Scotsman.
