THE CeoPs Or EupopE.--The latest adj
vices from Europe are to the effect that the
crops in all parts Of Continental Europe
promise rich harvest, and that, as will be
seen by the reports Of the different markets,
Breadstuifs are declining in all markets. In
some parts Of Germany farmers have already
begun to harvest their rye crops, and bread
made of new rye flour was in general use
and pronounced Of good quality. The to-
bacco plantations in Southern Germany
have been much refreshed by late rains,
and promise good crop. The grape vines
in Germany have ceased blooming, and sim
gle berries have reached the size Of small
peas. II the summer should continue as it
has begun, the wine Of 1856 will be outdone
by the product in 1857, both in quality and
quantity.
