the northern sections OF that State, Alabama and

a market, and we saall have more Southern Hour

than there With the de line Of prices abroad we
ought to have cheap breadstuffs by winter.

disappeared, and the cotton CROP concerning which

The New Orleans True Delta says:-Reports
from all portions Of the sugar growing sections OF
the State have come pouring in, and ALL whhout ex
ception convey the most cheering assurances OF the
prc spects Of che growing crop. Tue sharp cold
spells ard the keen frosts which have inspired 60
much apprehension have left no regretful traces
and ON all sides the hest feeling is entertained that
the crop this season will far mrpsss in value IL not
in absolute yield, any ever heretofore grown in
Louisiana.
Intelligence from various parts of the country
gives accounts of excellent prospects for fruit,

NEv YORK.
Throughout the State of New York the crops, with
the exception of corn when the late waTl ather
has given new start, arr looking as fine ~ the
most saDgune farmer could desire. Last year the
wheat harvest Was overtaken with number OF days
of vet weather. which caused the grain TO grow In
the field after it had ripened, which damaged 1t ma
terlslly and deprecated the value Of the Irop. II
the grain escapes ike fatality during the harvest
which is now approaching, the crop of New York
will be fully equal in quantity ~ we'll N quality to
any Of former years.
The extracts from papers published in all Dor
tons Of the State give very favorable idea OF the
cIops. We have noti,s d 20 olsint in bat one cOun

very considerably, and about haf crop only will

The crop of wheat in the central portion OF Backs
county IL considered the that b ~ been raised
for many years. The wheat stands evenly on the
ground the heads are large, ana the grain bids fair
to be of very superior quality The harvest will be
about Ten days later than u-uil. Rye, oats, and
grass promise good crop; bur corn, though gene

planting, in localities, NJ ,man for the season.
IN other sections OF the State, the same cheering
prospects ale observable.
VIRGINIA.
The wheat crop in Virginia, which few weeks
since looked rather doubtful has finally come round
all tight, and the yield will be fusv equal to any
former season. The harvest is now progressing.
The storm on the LIST of July did much damage
in the counties of Warren and PAGE. In Aibermarle

NOSrB CARnLr.A.
The Raleigh Standard ssys:-The wheat crop of
this section Is nearly all harvested, and the yield Is
forward with hope TO an abundant crop of corn this
year The esrlyan the latter rains only are needed;
but we must confess that just here in the middle IL

bug. though it did but little damage TO the wheat
crop, is preying upon corn 70 some extent.
Since the above was written we have had good
rains.

We learn from the Star that the weather in Marion
has been very cool and that fires and tack clothing
have been touDd necessary for comfort. The crops
