AGRICULTURAL.


In the Counties Of Marion, Logan, Cham
paign and part of Clark, the corn crop is by
tar the best we have seen this season, and
will, we Judge, be much more than half a
crop. In Crawford county, Judge MusGRAvE
informs us the corn crop is excellent, and the
clover seed crop little better. We saw
some gentleman from fcioto county, who say
that many fields Of corn in that region, will
be full average. On the whole, the corn
crop of Ohio Is better than we supposed. -
Many of the Scioto Valley, and North West
ern Ohio Farmers will have full crops. Corn
and fodder will be fed economically and spa
ringly. the coming winter, and there will be
next spring large surplus Of feed on hand
Unless the signs which farmers have lormerl,
regarded as reliable, fail, the coming winter
will be one of the most pleasant ave have
had for years. II this be so, those who are
short OF pasture ought not to neglect to SOW
plenty Of rye o. Farmer.

flour altogether, and let the purchaser Judge
for himself. Let the milers name and a par

be branded on each barrel as matter of
course, and indeed, we do not see how the
trade can be conducted properly or creditably
upon any other system"
We are assured by many facts and cxam-
nations into which our business has led us,
that there must be an edulteratioa of this
flour after it reaches the eastern markets.
We have had on opportunity Of acquaintance

Inferior American Flour in Europe.

The Belfast Mercantile Journal has the
following remarks upon American Flour
which are worthy the attention of shippers.
ave are sorry TO be obliged to caution
our American friends against continuing to
send over flour TO these kingdoms of an
inferior quality to that indicated by the brand.
We know not where the fault lies-but GER
tain we are, that more than half that is i'm
ported 10 these Kingdoms under the brand OF
No. Superiinc, is mere rubbish, and dis
creditable to the character of the American
millers.
"Previous to the introduction Of "rree
trade" we recollect that Ohio and Pennsyl.
vsnia -four bore very high character, and
Justly so, but we have perceived since then
gradual deterioration in the quality, tc
such an extent latterly as to call loudly fo.
interference. An immense proportion OF
the Hour now lying almost unsaleable in Lii,
verpool, is OF this description, and tho con.
tlnued loss 10 our merchants has been 50
great in consequence, that the result will
ultimately be transierance of the flour
trade 10 some OF our continental neighbors
French flour decidedly carries of the palm
90 TO quality, and a good harvest or two wo'd
place that notion, in such position as to sup,
ply us more readily and upon better terms
with a superior article OF superfine Hour.
We would earnestly urge upon such OF
our readers as may be interested in this mat.
ter; and particularly would we address our.
selves TO Americans, as to the vital necessity
ofadoP,ns immediate step, to have either an
