AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR JUNE.

Reports are still fortunately a mere recital of the pros-
perous state of the growing crops, the improved condition
of live stook, and of the activity and forwardness of culti-
vation. To compare the present luxuriant deep-green and
• waving mass of vegetation upon the bosom of the earth
with the withered, yellow, and scanty covering which gave
it such a parched, dreary/ and un-English appearance dur-
ing the drought: of last summer, forms a most delightful
and exhilarating contrast. Not that the late proved the
most mild, and, as Might be supposed, genial spring; for
the weather was subject to constant vicissitudes throughout,
and the occasional prevalence of the east and north east
winds roold-not fail to have, in a considerable degree, its
usual effect on vegetation. But this effect was not so
severe and excessive.** it sometimes proves; the malig-
nancy and force of the east wind was frequently tempered
by an inclination to its leathern side-;* and when the windy
had continued se long in, an easterly direction, that the
coarse of vegetation became impeded, and blight was ob-
viauslyadvancing, the vigilant and anxiotts cultivattir. of
the soil, at his uprising,exulted to find that the wind had
suddenly shifted to the genial 'west ; the incipient. blight
way happily arrested in its: course, and the healthful and
growing; state succeeded. These fortunate turns have not
filited during the spring; and thus far have thi crops escaped.
from the late frequency of the easterly winds, and the
quantity of rain which has fallen, we may indulge the hope
of a mild and fortunate blooming season for the *heat, and
of exemption from excess in the summer rains. Wheat,
(Milts best lands, is said to be so rink and luxuriant, that
should it fail in grain, there will be no lack of straw. The
lands, however, were so thoroughly pulverized and mellow-
ed by the latter frost, that it may be well hoped they will
be able to carry a heavy crop both of straw and corn.—
