The total imports of railroad iron from Great
Britain to the United States for the first seven
months of 1858, compared with those during like
space in 1856 and 1857, are as follows:

Sl0O5 tons. l05,6l3 ions. 553G tons.
The above table shows shat in seven months of
the present year we have imported less railroad iron
by 100000 tons than in the corresponding period of
last year. Since August lst, however, there has
been more activity in this department. and cOnsid-
cradle quantities have been imported by the Mobile
and Ohio, and other roads, and several companies
have contracted for supplies to be delivered before
the end of the year, so that the total mportations
for 1858 will not fall far short of last year as the
above figures would ndcate.-N. y. Post.

CRors.-A large portion of the finest tobacco of
this years crop has been gathered and housed in
good condition, and is undergoing the curing
process. The planters aver that what they lack in
quantity this year, they will make up in quality.
That is, the crop will be ''shOrt and sweet"
Since the corn crop has matured our exchanges
bring more favorable accounts of the yield. From
nearly every quarter of the country, intelligence
comes that the harvest is more abundant than was
anticipated during the drought. The same thing
we believe is true Of this section. Though the corn
crop is short one, more has been grown than was
expected.

TIE CRoPs-We learn from some of our plant
ers that the cotton crop never more proms-
ing. The tobacco is almost ready for market, and
we hope the liberal purchasers that have been
among us. from the North, in view of the low
prices at which many Of our citizens were com
pcled to dispose of their crops last year, will feel
disposed to give them rcmunerative price this
year. The crop, though not unusually large, we
understand is very fine, and such as will command
good prices in New York, and other markets.
