ENGLAND. The reports of the growing crops
throughout England are highly favorable. The wealth
er has been unusually fine. In some instances blight
and mildew have appeared, slightly injrring the
wheat. --
There were rumors that the potato disease had
done some damage to the crops in Ireland.
The elections throughout England had not quite
concluded. but the returns largely against the
Derby administration. When the Hermann left,
enough was known to render positively certain that
the administration would not be able 10 command
working majority in the House of Commons. The
indications were palpable that the Government would
have very brief tenure. The Peel party, headed by
James Graham, would most undoubtedly join in the
ranks of the liberal party.
The attempt to impress tax on food, it
rerted, would be strenuously resisted by the
Parliament.
