, though on some lands ther

be got in well, and we think that, with the exception of beans,
which appear to be an unusually light crop, the harvest will
be a very satisfactory one.—Kentish Gazette,

BERKS.—hi Berks the harvest has commenced in many
parts, and in souie few places wheat has been carried in Ox-
fordshire, it is not qiiite so forward.—Oxford Herald.
13osToN, AuG. 7.—The harvest in this part of the country
is progressing most prosperously, with every appearance of
the greatest abundance. The fields yesterday, between
Stamford and this town, were full of labourers busy with the
sickle.

TAUNTON.—The wheat harvest is now very general
throughout this and the neighbouring towns of Bridgwater,
North Petherton, Milverton, Bishop's Lydeard, and their
respective vicinities. The benevolent Providence which has
given us a bounteous harvest bus further vouchsafed the
blessing of splendid weather for securing it.—Taunton

Courier

OEVONSIIIII,C.—The past week has been uncommonly fa-
'-'- for the harvest, which i 6 now commenced in differ-
eat parts of our neighbourhood. The crops are unusually
tine ; indeed we have heard it remarked by several experi-
enced persons, that they have seldom seen the corn look so
well, the spring corn as well us the wheat. —North Devon
Advertiser.

WORCESTER.—For the last few days we have been visited
with genuine dog-day weather, the heat having been very
;mat. The sun has smiled Upon us " from morn till dewy
eve", in almost unclouded splendour, and the crops ate

rapidly improving under its genial influence. The harvest
has commenced, which, perhaps, is as much as can be said ;
some time must elapse, even under favourable circum-
stances, before it can become general. The harvest will of
necessity be a long one.—Worcester Chronicle.

LEICESTER.—The continuauce- of fine weather during the
past week, has rendered the chance of a prosperous harvest
almost a certainty ; and the agriculturists, generally speak-
ing, are full of confidence. Corn of every kind will soon 13:.,

gathering, we teel justified in anticipating a flourishing sea-

dant ; and, from the inquiries we have made, we believe that
such will be the case generally.—Leicester Journal.
NEwTowN.—The later crops of hay have been got in, in
the most beautiful condition, and, though prOperly seasoned,
nearly as green as when cut. The corn harvest has coin-
