The Growing wheat Crop.

We have advices from all parts Of the ives
tern States, including Kentucky. Tennessee
Missouri, Illinois. Indiana, Ohio, Michigan lows
aud Wisconsin. from which we learn that, with
the exception Of Tennessee, where II has beer
frozen ont. the growing wheat looks exceedingly
promising and healthy. The breadth Of land
sown with wheat last fall, was greatly inceased
over former years; and the indications now an
that, should the present month prove favorable
the wheat crop OF 1866. will be the largest, by
twenty-five per cent. ever gathered In the
Union
The large quantity OF snow which fell at the
commencement Of the cold weather. and which
remained on the grouud during the entire win
ter. protected the wheat plants from the severe
irosts. aud a. soon rs the warm suns Of April
heated the earth, they sprung up with unusual
vigor. II warm, wet weather should prevail
during the latter part Of this month, and the
first week or two Of June. it Is TO be feared
that the growth will be too rapid and luxurisnt
aud would cause the stalks 10 "lodge," and 10
such case the rust" the great enemy Of tie
wheat crop in this climate would destroy the
hope OF the husbandman. Under these circuns
stances. it may be set down ~ an admitted TACT
that the fate Of the wheat crop cannot be deci
dcd upon with any certainty, until after the
middle Of Jupe.Cn. Prns Current.
