The New-Brunswick and Canada papers, nnd lettersfrom Texas, also speak of boun- liful harvest as more than probable. From Tompkins county and Chenango county, in our State, and we believe the same is true ot all parts ofthe State, the gloomy anticipations of the farmers are all dispersed. The Ithaca Herald says that |" the recent fair weather and gentle rains had materially improved the appearance of the wheat fields; and we are , informed by farmers from every town, that at least an average crop may be confidently relied upon. It is estimated that one third more seed has been sown this year, in the country, than there ever was at any former period" The Oxford Republican, Chenango county, says that The farmers ofthis coun- ty are largely, and some of them almost ex- cIusively engaged in grazing. So far as the crop of grass is concerned their prospects were never more fiattering. The 4 half days of rain, already in this month, has load ed the meadows and covered the pastures with luxuriant crop; the rainy season has likewise improved the winter grain and brought forward the summer wheat, barley, oats and potatoes. The corn, on the low, moist fields has been injured on account of the great abundance of rain, still it is not un- healthy. In past seasons, we have known it to look on the lst day of July not as we'll on the same fields as it does at the present time, when it harvested forty bushels to the acre. The important wool crop has come off unusu- ally well, heavy, and free from cot and stain.'' The Cortland Republican says the wheat and grain corps look we'll. From New-Jersey we learn that the farmers are preparing to cut their grass, as soon as the weather will permit; and such crop of hay as will be made, has never before been known. Of wheat and rye, the crop will be double that of the last season-they are both filling aston- ishingly well. The harvesting, it is thought, will not commence till about the middle of July, twelve days later than usual. In the western part of Pennsylvania the crops of grass, corn, potatoes, sc. generally present a promising appearance, and that west of the Susquehanna tie wheat is unusually fine.- A full crop of the latter, they think, may be expected in that section of the State.
 In Virginia the season has been uncom- monly favorable, for a few weeks past, to the wheat-and the crop will be much better than was anticipated. It was injured by the winters frost, and the fly early in the spring and in the valley of Virginia, particularly in the great wheat counties of Augusta, Berke- ly, Jeffersoa Fauquier, &c., it will be con- siderably cut short-but in other parts ofthe state it has rallied-and favored as it has re- gently been by the cool and damp weather, will produce good harvest. The products on some estates will be very fine-and the quality every where is excellent-perhaps seldom better. We learn also more favorable accounts from all the Western States. In Maine, where bounty of 10 cents bushel is given for raising every twenty bushels, it is thought the wheat crop will be sufficient to supply the entire wants of the state.
 The Crops-We have before us accounts of the state of the crops in Maryland, Virgin ia, and Connecticut, which are no less favor- able than that which we had already publish cd from Ohio and other parts of the Union, as we'll as from the interior part of our own State. Private letters, however, have been received which state that the newspaper re- ports are congregations, and that the prom, ises of superabundant crops in this State arc not so favorable as they are represented to be. We trust that the printed accounts will prove correct. We feel sanguine that they will, because the recent accounts refer to the late warm weather as having had surprising influence. The late plentiful showers have wonderfully brought forward the small grain. The stalks of Rye have full and perfect heads in southern fields, where, at an early period of the season, they were considered so un- promising that the farmers thought of plough ing them up. Clear and dry weather is all that is now needed to bring forward any NuCIC dt lCtlSL u Auifs dSCltSC SLOps-4Us
 Mississippi and Arkansas.-In consequence Ofthe cali for an extra session of Congress, Governor Lynch has ordered an election for members from that State, (two) to take place on the Sd Monday of the presentmonth. For the same reason Governor Conway, of Ar kansas has appointed the 2d Monday of the present month for the choice of a Represen- tative from that State. In Mississippi the members chosen will hold office only till the regular election, which commences on the 6 first Monday in November.
