respondent of the Commercial Advertiser writes
that the accounts regarding deficiency of grain
in Northern Russia are fully confirmed, and That
a serious addition to the emf arrnssments of the
Russian Government is believed to have been in
ficted from this cause The same .corrcspon-
dent adds, in confirmation of all other reports on
the subject, that the accounts of the French har-
vest are more and more discouraging that the
wheat crop has certainly fallen short at least %,
OOOO 900 bushels,and that the yield of rye presents
similar deficiency.
