TIE HARVEST.
The most important event 10 the country il the
probable result oil the wheat harvest in Eurlaud and
on the continent oil Euro g. Ia France most of the
grain had been harvested and The crops were re-.
%nlarkahly good. In the southern parts of England
the wheat harvest was nearly over, and the crops gen.
orally good. In Wiltshire very llule was cut. IN To
the "2d, but tle crops, 1t Is. believed, will be toieta-
bly, good. In the midland counties tho prospect Is
not quite as favorable, and in the norli The c,ops
will be decidedly bad and The harvest very late. The
weather for many days had been 0uotuaiinp. and so
had been the prices of wheat. In Mark Lime on
the lotli OF August. wheat advanced . u IS per ounr.
ter, and a farther advance was looked Tor the next
market day, but piovidcntially the weather cleared
up, which is al all times a barometer for regulating
prices.
On the whole, from personal observation. in a RI.
pd ride though many counties. we think there will
be about an average quantity harvested, shbn1l -,
weather, toi The first two weeks IL Se.,,nho, n,ana
favorable. The smallef sta,us will be rather more
Iounuao'' hn. Of nay the supply viii be small. and
u" VIZ callfo a greater quantity of grain for iod-
uer, Perhaps the country never required an nbnn
dani supply OF bread s,ufrs. more than at presen,
Tor unlss IS the tens of thousands Of the Disconnected
eei biead al q cheap rate, they will have brought on
'he'f distress by their own imprudencc. The ac.
counts rom the Baltic are favorable, and We think
'he same remark will apply 10 the Continent gene
fal'y. From the great wheat districts of the north
ct England. aud from Scotland, we shall not hear
'oily until The return Of the Liverpool.
