Prospect of the Harvest in Erope.-Thc Liver
pool Times of the 10Th ut. says--''A fortnight ago
the season was unusually backward, and coupled
with the existing scarcity of food, people became
seriously alarmed about the future. The feeling is
now rcverscd-hope has banishcd dependency; and,
from present appearances, every indication exists of
an early and prolific yielding Of the earths fruits.
We have before reports from almost every district
of the country, which satisfy that the improve
mcnt and prospect of good harvest is almost univer
sal The wheat crop is at present too early to speak
of, but we may say that weather could be more
favorable for than the present 1t will be obsorv-
ed that the price of wheat and flour is still the
ad VANCE, and there exists the part Of many per-
sons great fear Of scarcity, it being impossible to
estimate with any degree of certainty the stock in
the hands of the farmers As regards the continent, it
was stated in the Chamber of Peers the 10th inst
bv the Minister of Commerce and Agriculture, that
the prospects of the next harvest were extremely
promising. The crops throughout Belgium are said
10 promise an abundant harvest. A correspondent
of a London paper says: 81 have just traverscd the
whole of the central and upper districts of the Pen
iusula can affirm that, for the last twenty years,
never was the aspect of the country or the opera
tions of the farmer in state so promising From
Egypt we learn that the corn harvest in both Upper
and Middle Egypt had been got in, and was most
abundant The Vceroy cstsmatcs that there will be
300 900 hcctolitrcs Of for expectation in July,
at the rise of the waters of the Nile"
