Spring
This is n subject in which all are interested tbc
consumer not less than the producer; the nerb,ri,
the labofcr, the mcrchanta trades professions ana

same degree We are happy therefore TO believe that
throughout Virginia the yield it not abundant will
be fair and that shall have fully an average in the
whole country

The growing crops of corn in Shenandoah look far
more thrifty and promising than they have for sryrr

The Winchester Virgnian savs:-While the farm,
crs ofths section OF Virginia will reap half crop
of wheat, it is gratifying TO know that there will nro-
ibaby be full average yield in the United States In
other parts OF Virginia regent accounts induce rs ia
believe the crop OF wheat will not fail far below AN
average one. From many parts of the West and
North western portions of the State we have c,vor
nble accounts. The Morgantown Star states that in
Monongalia and Preston counties there wl he rood
crops and in the Southwestern, Southern and south
eastern portions OF the State there will be Il fall NY
erage yield.

section are Tor the most part engaged in cutting their
wheat crop by the first Of next week it will be gen

The harvest has been begun in Augusta county
and understand from the Snunton Vindicntor that
the yield OF wheat is likely to be more productive
than was at first anticipated. The oat crop though
standing short on the ground, is said TO be unusually
promising. Corn, also, looks well. The harvest in
this section is much later than usual owing to the
backWardness of the Spring.
During this week. our farmers generally. will COM
mence cutting their wheat. The crop, from all that
we can learn, are inclined to believe will proyea
much better one than last years. The Rye and Dat
crop are more than usually promising.-R0AaY In

very destructipes to the crops in Stafford Culpeper
and the adjacent counties The stones which fell
were OF an immense size, aud to the depth of six or
eight inches IN some places between Fredericksburg
and Acqula Greek.
We learn that the largest and probably the finest
wheat crop in Aibemarlc, is the one upon Mr. John
5. Coles farm near Warren. We are told that Mr.
Coles will reap some nine or ten thousand bushels
which at 81 so per bnshel will yield him the hand
