TIE CROPS or DEI.NwanE.--chaunccy j.

ton in relation to Tie crops Of Delaware:
Tlc wheat crop of ,his Stacis, as wi ole,
not far from SO per cent below an average;
but the effects of the rust, which was the
principal cause ct the falling OF, was partial.

In my opinion, fum all have observed
and can learn, the falling Oh iM the com crop
IN the two lower COUNT, of thi: STATE, Kent
and SUSSEX, will be about forty per cent
think no, less more than forty in Sussex,
some hing less in Kent. Ii is the princi al
crop Of SUSSEX. aud is extensively cultivated
in Kent. In this county, Newcastle our
holes are that it will reach within - per
cent Of an average crop, but will lie 10 per
cent below Il good crop. Hut the breadth
planted was greater than usual, and may
hing the production Of the State within -
per cent Of an average crop.
Potato arc almost total future. | dug

Of the field would be about two hundred and
fifty bushels Of small 20 atots, hardly ff y
bushels of them being lit Tor table use. The
very carly rlaa.cl have done something
better.
There will be very few turnirs: not one
field in twenty sown came NJ. Some have
sown Il second and third TING. and may get
few from the effects Of the Ia rain.
The oat crop and the hay crop were a good
average in this State. ] should think the CAT
crop little above an average.

CoHNEECIAL PEnSpEcTs.-T imports for
September we are told have fallen million
and half short Of those ofthc corresponding
month Of last year. This is good news for
the dry goods men and the commercial com
munity generally. On the other hand, not
witllstanding the receipt of two millions last
week from California, the banks showed Il
falling oil last Monday Of nearly million of
dollars. This drain Of specie is u grave and
omnous fact. We have already by this first
week in October shipped to England as much
specie as the entire export Of last year: and
there is no sign of the shipments falling off.
If the cnrtaiiincnt Of our inportations does
not continue ona large scale, the bauks will
soon find themselves in II tight place. But
the imports will fall oh.-N. Y. Uefald.

ANNEXATION OF SAMANA.-Rumor has it
that Mr.. and Mrs. CaZcncau have succeeded
in their mission TO the Dominican republic.
The fine port of SANTANA, it is said, las been
ccded to the L niicd States. We should like
to see some more authentic evidence OF the
fact before we attach implicit credencc to it;
as. after all, why should the Domincians lie
in such desperate hurry to part with their
best seaport! Nations are not in the habit
Of laying each other these little affections;
and we have not to our knowledge any par
ticullr claims on the regard of the Domini-
clans. 1t seems more likely that Mr.. aud
Mrs. Cazcnrau have followed in the steps of
Louis Philippe. and have obtained trom the
Doninicians the same privileges as were
