Wheat Crop OF Oi.io and Other
States.

We have taken considerable pains TO
obtain reliable Information in regard TO
the wheat crop OF this and other States;
and the harvest being now over. we are
now able to give pretty correct estimate
OF il character.
The accounts given in our last. of the
disastrous fai.1re ofthe wheat crop through
out all of southern Ohio have been more
than confirmed by letters and papers re-
ceiyed during the past two weeks We
regret also. 10 state that our hopes respect
ing the more northern wheat growing
counties of Ohio, have not been confirm
ed. except in part \ letter from a well
informed friend in Stark county. assures
US that the wheat crop of that region. VIII
not exceed ONE HALF an average yield
although il looked very promising up 10
the time of cutting. In Wayne county
our letters state that the crop may be put
down at about two thirds an average yield
In RichIand and Huron we gather from
the reports, about one half. or two thirds
of full crop has been harvested. In
Henry county. and some others. in the
north west corner of the State. the wheat
is said to be good. though comparatively
little is raised From all that we gather.
therefore we SET II tOWn. as our opinion.
that the wheat crop of Ohio. is not over
e-third OF full average Weld This
viii be only about enough for home con-
sumption and for seed.
In all The States. we have already
shown that Indiana and Kentucky, and
the western portions of Pennsylvania and
Virginia, have shared with US in the loss
of their Wheat crop. But east Of the
mountains in Pennsylvania. Virginia.
Maryland, &c. the crop is said to be full
an average one; and the recent accounts
from New \ ork. indicate above an average
crop in that State. In Upper Canada and
in Michigan also. the crop is very good
full an average. if not better. In Illinois
most accounts speak iavorablv Of the crop
only few counties seem to have suffer
ed
Now. in order to furnish data. on which
to base an opinion in regard to the effects
of the partial failure of the crop, on the
prices and the aggregate surplus Of the
country, we will give a few figures based
on the estimates Of the commissioner OF
patents for the past year, which are doubt
less not far from correct.
The principal wheat growing States are
aS fellows.

Rose quick ming in thy blessed ray.
And now they wbiten hill and vale
And hang from every vine and tree,
Whose pensive branches bending low
Seem bowed in thank fulness to Thee
The earth 18th all its purple isles,
Is answering to Thy genial smiles,
And gales of perfume breath along
And lift to Thee their voiceless song
God Of the seasons. Thou has best

And plenty DER its bosom smiles
To crown the sweet autumDhl hours:
Praise, praise TO Thee! Our hearts expand
To view these blessings of thy h.nd,
A nd N the incense-breathc Of love,
Go off to their right home above.
