The best news we have respecting the harvest is from
Ireland, whence the reports cheering. The Dublin
Erenhag Post of Saturday says
Our harvest reports continue very favorable as
regards the cereal crops and hear little nothing
about blight IN the potato, for although the stalks
affected in many places the roots, assured
still sound and the markets all through the country are
plentifuly supplied with potatoes far finer in quality
than at any time since 1874 The weather fortunately
confines fne and in most places the bulk of the harvest
has already been secured
AS respects the cholera we have treport three cases
at Liverpool among German emigrants the disor
der however, has not extended. There have been
from twenty to thirty cases at Newcastle. The cases
in London last week FIVE children and two
adults has however, broken out in fresh localities
viz. Newgate Market, in the neghborhood of ST.
Paurs and the Surrey side of the river ST. Georges
parish Southwark, both very thickly inhabited and
wholesome situations, through want of cleanliness and
ventilation. The number of deaths during the week
were LOIS, the average of ten years being 1850.
The Eastern question: whatever may be the result and
certainly at present the issue threatens be any thing
rather than pacific has called forth some excellent State
papers The two replies Of the French Minister at War
NJ DRoUYN DE LHUYs, excellent compositions both
in style and argument Then we have very good paper
from the Earl Of CLARENDON, and we have one from
the Turkish Minister REscHID PAcHA which regarded
as masterpiece of diplomatic argument and skill We
the influence Of party in Turkey determined upon war
This party has long existed in the Dvan and has lately
had its enthusiasm increased and its hopes excited by
the display Of barbarc the Serasker has been
able to make. 1t is known also that the state Of the
Russian armies in the Danuban Provinces is such as to
have given pause to the Russian Government and would
make it DESTROYS to withdraw them for the present il it
could be done without garing wound to its pride
STILL however, "he Car rejects the Turkish modifca
tons, but abides by the Vienna note and promises to
the Prncpaes if the Porte accepts it pure
and simple" So says telegraphic note from Vienna
The most danger is to be apprehended from the war
spirit at Contantnople, which may be famed into fame
by the rejection of the Sultan's notifications
As respects political news the continent Of Europe Is
blank The following statements respecting the harvest
are important
" The Prussian and Austrian Governments have iust
published the official reports which have reached them on
the results OF the harvest In Prussia although the fire.
quent rains prevented the harvest from being an abundant
one, there is 1t is stated far from scarcity The crop
of rye in the Province Of Prussia and in the Provinces
OF Posen and Brandeburg is good and abundan in
Pomerania Saxony, and Sesia it is moderate and IL IL
only in Lthuania in Western Pomerania and in West
phalia that is bad The may be said of the crop
of wheat, with this difference that in Westphalia it is
better and in the Rhensh Province rather worse than
that Of the rye. In Lhuania Saxony and Silesa the
crop Of barley has been fair The crops of forage
have been every where abundant, but part Of them was
aterWarus destroyed Dy the bad weather. The price of
corn appears to be kept up from fear of failure in the
potatoes but the disease in that vegetable is only partial
and there is nothing to indicate that the produce will be
less than in former years The crops satisfactory in
the Tyro and in Upper Austria middng in Carnioa and
in Austrian Silesa, good in Moraya and the Bukowne
and very fair in the Duchy Of Cracow The reports from
Hungary, Galica, Transylyana, Lombardy, and other
parts of the Empire have not yet been received but there
is nevertheless reason to believe that without being "a
abundant might have been hoped the returns will be
satisfactory The price Of land in certain parts Of Hun
gary has doubled, fact which shows the progress max
ing by agriculture in that country"
There is not any news from ITALY except continual
in the price of bread and consequent
dissatisfaction on the part of the people, and
oppression and suspicion that Of the Governments
FRANCE does not yield any news beyond a continued
stagnation in business, in fact almost panic at the
Bourse consequence Of the unfavorabe turn which the
arrangements Of the Eastern question hos taken Re-
ports are 50 various and Numerically opposite with
respect to the harvest in France hat we know not what
70 say about it. in fact the way which the price Of
bread IS now regulated by Government prevents the
natural operations Of supply and consumption that there
are no very obvious means Of arriving at correct
conclusion.
