THE WEATuER-THE CROPS.


THE WEATIlER-TIIE CROPS.
The good intelligence comes in from
every quarter that the recent change in the
weather has been most beneficial to all the
crops of the season. The fears, therefore,
entertained widely few days since, that
the harvest would be mcagre, are well nigh
dissipatcd. The following arc the --latest,
items that have come TO hand.
The Frederick, Nd. Examiner Of the
18th inst, says:
"Thcre was a general comment on Monday last
of the wheat harvest in this county, ana but small
portion of the crop will be left standing at the end OF
the week. We do not hear any complaints oil serious
deficiency in the crop.
The Cincinnati Chronicle of the Sd inst.
says:
"In the northern parts of Ohio, Mich. and Indiana,
the wheat crops are fine; and we THINK IN these states
generally the wheat harvest will he abundant rus
region OF country is now beginning to fulfil It's destiny
as Il wheat growing region" .
Information from vari1ns quarters, combined with
our own observations, satisfies rs that the croaiinE'
about short crops will not be realized: lhe diought
for while nd red the prospect doubtlu but the
effect produced by the rams of the last ten days IS
Sufficient TO d.sncl apprehension. On the whole, We
are nav prepared to state, an OPINION formed from
through inquiry and minute observation, that the
Crops generally n We tern New Io;li will turn ont
at least cq al TO an acreage harvest-Roch. Ere

rain 1t is refreshing the crops of oats and corn
which look very well hut rather injurious TO the grass
that was cut.-Pcrry tPdD Freeman Jaiy |.
The crops in the vicinity of Hannibal, Mo-.
on the Missouri river, consisting of wheat,
corn and hemp, are represented as appcar-
ing beautifully and promising an abundant
yield. The Journal says-"A little rain,
which we are tolerably sure Of having, will
enable the farmers to plant out their tobacco,
and then we may anticipate as fine crop
as the earth ever produced.
The Grand Gulf, Miss. Advertiser, Of the
9Th, mcntous that not "A drop of rain had
fallen IN the town for more than six weeks,
and that the cotton and corn crops were sut-
fcring greatly in consequence.
The numerous sh Iwers of ram with which our vi
Gin ty has been favored during the past few days have
given entire new aspect 10 the prospects OF the
farmers i'll this section. The long period OF dry
weather has very much injured the hay crop which
must necessarily be very light, but the prospective
corn, pono and oat crops look finely Remington
