The RELEASE OF KossUrH.-A letter from Con-
s,antinoplc, Of the 3D., says: "You perhaps sup
posed that the question relative TO the Hungarian
refugees terminated by the convention be
tween the Porte, Russia, and Austria, but that is
not the case. This question seems destined 90 drag
on, like all those relative TO the East, and Austria
vive the matter with all the accessories Of notes,
negotiations, and interventions
According to the convention mentioned above,
the Porte engaged TO keep under it's guard the
Hungarian refugees for n year, conceiving that
period To begin from the time when they sought
refuge in the Ottoman territory, unless the tran
quilhty Of Hungary was anew troubled within that
period
Bot as every thing is tranquil in the Austrian
monarchy, and "a the term expires this month, the
Porte has manifested the intention of restoring
kossuth and his companions TO liberty. For that
purpose, measures were taken TO place at the dis
posal of the refugees a state vessel TO transport
them TO England, even America; and a sum Of
500 pisstres (l25f) was to be distributed TO each
man at the moment of his landing, TO provide for
his wants. These arrangements, however, fright
ened the Austrian government, and within these

Constantipoplc, delivered a note in which IL pre-

the interior, and protests against the Liberation OF
the refugees. The Porte replied with energy, and
Mt present negotiations are going on with equal
warmth on both sides

Crops. Wenther, &c.

The Cincinnati Gazette of June 90 says: Our
accounts from all quarters, lead US to expect abun.
dsnt crops Of Wheat. The harvest progressed well
in this region. We examined yesterday one o. the
finest specimens Of Wheat we ever saw, raised on
a piece Of well MANFRED sandy loan near Carthage,
plowed deep and sowed the middle OF September.
This is the Mediterranean Wheat-stands about %
feet high, heads long I'VE measured one OF nches,l
kernel large and plump from Oae stool 1000 ker-
nels were counted. II will yield about 40 bushels
to the acre. This is good yield OF an excellent
article.
The Buffalo Commercial Adrertiser says: The
weather at the west for the past two weeks has
been most favorable for the gro wing crops and all
accounts agree that present appearances Indicate
more than an average yield. Ii is also general
" conceded that there is much more ground
sown than last year. These prospects together
with the decline in the foreign markets. sufficient
TO cut off almost oil hopes OF demand from that
quarter have bad the effect 10 depress oar home
markets materially and in the continued absence Of
foreign demand 1t is hardly probable that the pres.
ent rates can be maintained any length Of time.
Although the decrease in the receipts Of Flour
and Wheat at the principal ports are equal to near
" 600 bbs Flour the falling off of the foreign
demand as exhibited by our exports to Great
Britain is equal to 100000 bbls OF Flour and $780,
900 bushels Of Indian Corn. The receipts Of Corn
at New Orleans this year are equal to about oO0,
600 bushels short of those of last year
At the Northern ports the receipts are somewhat
larger at present than they were astyear but this
may perhaps in some measure be attributed to the
fact that Corn has come forward earlier this year
thsn usual owing to the scarcity OF other grain
freights.
in Pensacola, Fla. there is now the most extra
ordinary drouth experienced, at this season, for
quarter Of a century.
