Extract from the London Economist, for July.

s'Thc consumption of the year, ended 9TH ult., has
been no less than S,435,130 qrs OF foreign gram,
equivalent TO the produce of upwards of 10000
acres of our best land and which, at the lowest est-
mate has cost the country tcenty millions sterling,
as its first cost landed in our ports-absoiutely eX-
ncndcd and paid to foreign countries, as the cost
chiefly of our deficient potato crop, independent oil
the enormous additional price which the community
has paid for the home produce. And the best evl-
dcncc how much below fair equivalent OF the real
deficiency of home crops, even this huge lmpor-
totion has BEEN is the fact of the enormous prices
which. Notwithstanding, have been maintained for
several months past. This result very much corro-
borates the estimate which we have made OF the cx-
tent TO which the potato failed last year, but is SO
incomparaby beyond all former experience, ahu' we
believe of any ordinary estimate OF what has been
imported that its magnitude is calculated to astonish
those most familiar with the subject"
"Confining our views from the present time until
the lst January next let us for moment glance al
our prospects, as far it is possible to know them
First Whether the potato fails or not, the quan-
titv planted is so limited, that small quantity
will be available for human food during the hex'
year as during the pastnor as general ruiz is inc
land thrown out of cultivation, occupied with crops
suited for human food IL the potato iis saun ~
the small extent that it is planted as generally as
last year, the effects must be correspondlngy aggra
waited.
Second With regard TO our home crops OF grain,
the wheat is not more promising than last year
when, on the whole, the yield was good; but the
crops of spring grain oats, and barley so far promise
better result and if they turn out very full crop
they will go far make good for any failure which
may take place in the small crops OF potatoes planted
Third: With regard to the stocks now in farmers
hands they are VIGOROUSLY smaller than in any for
mer year in modern times"

The Reaction IN Flour and Grain has commenc-
ed with the failure ofscvcral large operators Those
who had made contracts for cargocs deliverable here
in July and August, capitalists who purchased i'll ex-
pectation of higher prices and merchants who made
shipments TO Europe, with their connections in bust
ness, must all feel the disastrous effects Of the fall Of
prices We have repeatedly exposed the fatal ten
denotes Of the speculation. Now are called upon
to record the ulilmCnt of our predictions and mark
the progress Of the commercial tornado. That Il
crisis is al hand, is self evident. Its extent and con-
sequences therefore of absorbing interest TO every
prudent connected with the business interests of
this city. We estimate the reduction in breadstufs
held on American account at four millions and hGD
Of dollars. OF this, at least three millions is an
actual loss to the parties who had invested their
money made advances But the humiliation of so
much cXchangeablc value is intimately connected
with the currency, and involves much larger amount
of circulating medium, in the shape of private paper
and bank notes, throughout the agricultural states
and the Atlantic cities Add to this the contraction
Of the currency, rendered necessary by the turning
| of the Foreign exchanges against America,-spccie
is required for the army in Mexico, and food is no
longer available in exchange for cargocs Of French
and English goods, the way in course of
shipment TO this country,-and we have abundant
reason for prudence and caution in business. 1t is
impossible for the rCvusiOn 10 become general for
the country had fuller supply of the precious
metals and in Of urgent necessity, large part
of the United States Loan, held in this country,
can readily be placed abroad. The actual rcvulsion
will be confined to spectators and their associates,
and the Western agricultural states which have in
fatcd their local currcncics. Ohio has committed
the greatest cXccsscs and must necessarily be the
first to suffer from the approaching storm. Although
of her banks and many Of her spectators are
ruined, yet we hope her farmers and prudent MGR
chants are secure.
While the Northern and Western states are 10 be
deprived of foreign markct-daprivcd Of it at least
until home prices have rccrdcd TO point at which
the expectation of brcadstuls can be renewed the
Southern states have only a good demand, but IA
vorabc prospect Of high prices for their great staples.
The rcyulSon cannot therefore affect the Southern
hope to sec even the Northern and Western states
weather the storm with only few serious disasters.

Our Ocean SeamerS.-It is Notifying to our
skill in naval architecture, that all our SEA going
steamers have thus far been failures. Our Gov
eminent steamers have been all failures, and some
of them not only crstly but ridiculous abortons.
Great expectations have been entertained OF the
success Of The Washington, built on the plan of
the British steamers, at New York, and furnished
with the most powerful engines ever put on board
a vessel; but single voy age has also proved her
failure. and after all the high raised expectations
concerning her surprising every thing aioat, it is
announced that she must be raced or cut down,
aud that she would have exhausted all her i'm
mense supply of coal when in mid ocean, if the
weather had not been very pleasant; and that,
pleasant as was The voyage, the safety of the YES
sci would have been endangered, had not the
Captain had the prudence to put one hundred and
fifty tons of pig iron in the bottom, under her
coal. The new and splendid steamship United
States now nearly ready for launching, is built on
the same plan with the Washington, and, like
her, will require to be cut down, at great expense.

REVIEW OF THE
BALTIMORE MARK EFT
tAxD INCIDENTS CONNECTED THEREwITH,)
For the Weck ending last erenimg.


REMARKS.-We have had another very dull
week. not occasoncd alone by the continuance OF the
hot weather, but rendered peculiarly dull, even in
midsummer, from the character of the adviccs re-
ceiycd by the steamer Britannia at Boston, which
arrived last Saturday, she having left Liverpool 4h
instant.
The Britannias accounts, of great decline in the
prces of BreadstnIs in the English markets. and the
prospect of very abundant crop in all the United
Kingdom as we'll the Continent, have unsettled
the markets in the United States, as far nlor
nation has extended, while that Of our Balti-
more comes in for full share Of the depression.
The Southern markets are particularly relieved from
this drawback, owing to the fact that an improve
ment of Cd per h. in Cotton Gone of their staplcs)
had taken place i'll Liverpool since the departure Of
the last previous steamer; while Tobacco, the only
staple which orr market can look 10 for relief
substitute for their Cotton is in much the same de-
clinng position as Brcadstuls, and therefore affords
nothing consolabc; and this has been its general char
actcr in the European markets for some very con-
siderable time past.-Wc refer to the leading arti
clcs in our market as noted below fer such details
we have been enabled to coleci and in regard TO the
prices of Brcadstufs at Liverpool, at the time of
leaving Of the last three steamers annex the fol-
lowing, which show their rapid decline, and rates at
close:

Potatoes Tic farmers in Maine have been hold
ing back their Potatoes for higher prices, but the
season getting late, they now crowding them on

and very dull of sale-25a3O cts. per bushcl is the
most that can be obtained. Chenangoes are worth
50a60 cts. cash. The new crop promises well all
over New England, and yet we hear of no ap-
pearance of rot.-Bosion Daily Adc., July II.

Showing, even in this fay orablc view of pros
poets Tor the next six months, a smaller supply than
last year Of ? POO 900 qrs
ION the other hand however, we must bear in
mind that many circumstances are now combining to
affect the amount Of consumption. First, there is
considerable suspension Of railway works. Second,
employment in the manufacturing districts, which, up
| to December last, good, is most lamcntabIy
curtaIlcd And third, the present enormous prices
cannot fail 10 interfere materially with the extent of
consumption though doubtlessly this will be the
less with bread than with any other articles for being
the first great necessary of existence, and all things
considered, now the cheapest description OF food sa-
crhces viii be made in all other ways before the
consumption Of bread is materially curtailcd.
"But there is other great and important consi-
dcration with regard to the consumption of the next
six months, and more particularly Of the next twelve
months, demanding great consideration. 1t is mpos-
sIble to estimate the enormous influence upon the
consumption Of foreign grain, and in enhancing its
price, which the Government expenditure in Ireland
has had during the past year. For many months,
consecutivcly, ireland drained the English markets
both of the home and foreign stocks week after
week; and for the last three months the average i'm
ports into Ireland alone have been about 100 900 qrs
weekly. This again shows how closely connected
the demand for foreign grain has been with the fail
Of the potato. Now, but for the Government
expenditure Of at least ten millions within the year,
this consumption would have been imposSiblc--and
but for Government expenditure, its continuance will
be equally impossible, for the Irish in better
position to help themselves than they were last
year. The monies now granted by Parliament, in
GLIDING the eight million loan, it is computed will
deray this expenditure until the month Of Novcrn-
ber and until then the present consumption will be
kept up.''
