THE CRoPs.-Most of our farmers have finished
their wheat, harvest and we are told that the
wheat throughout the county is unusually heavy.
It almost entirely escaped the fly and rust, nor
do we hear Of any sec ton that has been troubled
with the weevil. The heavy and continued
rains, however, render it difficult to save, and
great fears are entertained that much of it will
sprout in the field before it is dry enough to
stack or house. But the late rains have not been
without their beneficial effect; in consequence
of them fair crops of oats will be made, where
three weeks ago none was expected. Corn and
potatoes have come on amazingly, and now
promise fair yield. Hay is not an average
crop, and much of the clover, after being cut
spoiled and blackened in the field before il was
sufficiently dry to remove. ..
