THE HARVEST.

Our farmers are in the midst of wheat harvest
Ihe oldest inhabtant has no recollection of a veor
so abundant as the present. Grain of every descrp-
ton spring and fall fruit of all kinds, garden vegeta-
bles, every thing that the heart of man could desire
nature has supplied with the greatest prousion It
is, indeed, the year of plenty.
The weather. thus far, has been very favorable for
cutting grain and grass, and yet showers have been
sulhclently frequent to bring forward the corn and
potato crops.
