~ The Baltimore American publishes an cX-
tenSive review of the state Of Crops in various
sections of The country, embracing portions of the
States of New York, New Jersey, PENNSYLVANIA,
Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Ohio and Illinois.
From this review il would appear that the Wheat,
Rye and Corn crops though in some places good,
will Weld less than average, while the Oats are
generally abundant and fine. This review, how
ever, is neccsS lrily defective, embracing very
limited sections OF country, (ony four counties in
virginia, iorcxamplc.) The crop Of Wheat will
probably be less than an average one-bHt we
doubt whether i, will not be much more abundant
than i, generally anticipated. There seems to
be great uncertainty about the prices, as yet, and
the market is every where unsettled. In Bat-
more, old white was selling on the 18th inst. at
81 -, and contract made for the early de-
livery of 2O0O bush. prime white, of the crop,
