HarUest.--Ktnf.-The return of fair,
weather, after the dTeary day Of Mon
day, has given life 10 the exer,ions os
the farmers in East Kent, and much
wheat has been in consequence since
carried in and housed. There were
however, some very heavy showers Of
rain on Wednesday, particularly at
Wingham and Bridge, but their duras
ton was short, and their exteat ceDfD..
ed. 1t is expected the crops will, in
general, be favorable the wheat moro
so than the barley, the latter having
been much beaten down.
WOJoK. Within circuit of ten
miles round this city considerabla
quantity of corn will have been housed
or stacked this week In those zelda

the wheat-cars lay upon the straw, and
being thus kept from eff the ground

Susser.--Our reposts this week, up.
on the whole are favorable, and the
wheat fields, in oil parts Of this districts
now present no ordinary sLene of in,
dustrious activity. In several quar-,
ters however, we regret to state, thai
the farmers, fearful Of the weather have
cut their grain in an unripe state and.
in this condition, much has bees Alrea-
dy carried but considerable portion
