Harvest in Alleghany.--The Cumber.
land Alleganian OF Saturday says"
good number Of our country friends in ,hi:
neighborhood have commenced cutting
their wheat and rye crops, and we pre-.
sumo by the last Of next week, large
portion of them will be ripe. We under
stand that The wheat crops have Improved
considerably within the last fc~ weeks.
but from all we can learn there will moi
be an average crop. The corn crop has
been greatly revived by the late refresh
ing rains, and may yet turn ou. an average
yield"
Hdrryst-The Frederick Herald says
The continued rain Of the week has con.
siderabIy interrupted tho harvcsrcrs. We
fear that, frDm the rust, smut and sprout.
ing Of The wheat much more damage haa
been done than was apprehended. The
corn however is thriving.
The WilIiamspor, (Md.) Banner says {:
The copious rains experienced in the
fore part Of the week. has given fresh
impulse to vegetation generally, after n
long drought. The corn crop. which was
beginning 10 suffer from the drought, will
be materially benefited, and wheat aud
rye ripened for the cradle some days
sooner than was anticipated at The corn-
mencemeu, Of the week. The oats will
be very short and the crop light.
Crops in Western Virginia.-The small
grain crops, particularly the wheat crop,
from all the accounts we have seen and
heard. may be reckoned as among the
hesi. il no, the very best this year, that
has been raised for many years. 10 this
county. where no good wheat has been
raised for several years. the crop, while i,
will not be so large one as our farmers
calculated upon last year, will be about
TWO. thirds Of full crop, and from present
appearances will be as good wheat as any
ever raised in ibe county. Some have
commenced reaping already, and these
sIale that they never saw pre,tier grain
than they arc now gathering. The sea-
son seems propiiious at present. and must
suddencS change very much TO destroy the
grain before it is secured. The rye and
oats will be fair. barring an accident

Crops in Lolrer Virginia.-The weather
continues highly favorable. to the corn
crop. which, every where that we have
heard from, ,isrepor,cd first rate" Should
the remainder Of the season prove equally
propilious, it is calculated That the preseui
years crop in the region hcrcabout, which
failed last year, will be third more than
i, was ever kaown 10 be. The farmers
have planted more, nnd they have given
more attention TO its cultivation than 10
any former year.
The whea, is all housed, aud a better
season for getting il in could not have
been asked for in the prisons of the most
avaricious.- Norfolk Herald.
Crops in Canada.-The crops generally
in Canada. says the Montreal Herald, are
anything but promising.
The Wheat Crop.-The Wayne county,
Ind. Record says. much fear has been
manifested in Indiana by many persons on
account Of q supposed par,ial failure OF the
wheat crop. Accounts from The western
part Of The Stale inform Us that there has
never been better prospect Of good
harvest. From The farmers in this sec,
,ion Of The country, we learn that If the
rus, does not commence on their wheat
