reached from the country during the past week on
this painful subject may lay it down broad in
disputable fact, that the potato crop, viewed the
staple food Of the masses is lost None will deny
This is the first fact. The second fact is, perhaps
more alarming STILL The wheat crop one-fourth be-
potatoes failed wheat was above the average
yield This is the first year in which both crops were
simultaneously defective Oats, too, owing to the late

These three facts-the loss of the potato crop the
defect in the produce of wheat, and the damage
tanned by the eats-are quite sufficient to show that
we have to spprehend the drest scarcity. When in
connection with these melancholy facts take into
consideration the exhausted state of country after
three successive years of famine must admit the
to be far more disastrous in its results than any we
have yet been doomed to witness.
