Thursday has the following article ON the wheat

and Ia correct. we believe, so far as it concerns
vireinia, Maryland aud Ohio, which we have our
selves seen:

lively ciesned out of the old crop, having mostly
sold before the recent decline But In Illinois and
Indiana, the former particularly, there are large
stocks of grain, especially of Indian Corn. These
are not only accumulated to some extent by deal
ers, but also, and chiefly, in the hands of the
original producers. Many of the holders refused
from 40 to Zoe. per bushel for corn, whereas now
they can only realize Ia to lSc
There will be- we apprehend but little sympa-
thy for this class, who were not satisfied it'll the
enormous rates offered at high tide. Our inform.
ant thinks that the stock of corn has been greatly
moderated although much of 1t WILL under the
present circum stances, doubtless be held over
In regard TO the growing crop OF wheat his report
is less favorable. There was large breadth of
land sown but the severe winter injured it to some
extent while the head in many places even where
the stalk is luxuriant, is noe well filled The
drought in many parts of the middle and Western
States, and especially in upper Illinois, Indiana,
the Southern part of Illinois and along the Ohio
river, the yield viii be enormous In this State
the wheat looks unusually well, and is very prom.
Using both in quantity aud quality. In Delaware,
Pennsylvania and Maryland there is also a fair
crop, though somewhat injured by Their In
many parts of Virginia and North Carolina there
has been unusual damage from the fly or drought
Farther South, in Georgia, there is promise of
great abundance, and In Tennessee the yield now
being harvested is large and of excellent quality.
Tennessee wheat has given great satisfaction in
this market But little Southern grain has come
TO ia such good order, or shown in its prepare
ton more honest careful husbaadry. A large pro-
portion Of it has been red; but the grain is plump
and the quality very uniform 1t has been quite a
favorite with shippers. Taking the States togeth-
er, the crop may be reckoned of good average
quality and little over the average quantity. In
dian corn, especially Northern and Western, is thus
far less promising, owing to the cold weather, but
it is not too late for it to recover, and make full
amends by rapid summer growth
The following. from respectable source, we
have received since writing the above:
Extract Of a Letter from Dela,oare
The weather is very unfavorable for the wheat,
and we fear much of the Maryland and Virginia
crop will be injured by rust. Here it is hardly
ripe enough to be affected by rust but may scab
some. Under no circumstances can there be full
average crop of wheat in the middle States but
we were in hopes the quality would have been
good.
