The Country Gentleman as follows:
Suffolk County, L. l., July 2i.-The weather b
this locality, 1t will be said by some. has been, dur
ing the last three weeks the most remarkable wtail
the memory of the "oldest inhabitant." Usually
upon this arm OF the Island the crops upon the sandy
lands during toe months of July and August, sutei
much for tho want OF sufficient RAIN. Inc Sammss
showers generally pass us on the souto, over tnt
ocean, or on the north over Long Island Sound. "
tho 9Th inst. after marked and continued indica.
ton by TIE barometer rain set in and continued a
most daily up TO the 2lst inst. Grass was In
condition TO DO cut, and us the sun would occasion
aly shine forth for an hour or two VI time. manJ
Of The farmers commenced moving, yet during ~
whole period there was not an hour that hay coIls
be put up dry. Large quantities remained on ~
ground, and are now uni. for feed. In this respsd
our farmers have sustained heavy loss, hay being
one sf the staple crops. Some grain has also bese
cut. though with less damage than hay; yet .ns
wheat has suffered somewhst from rust In reading
the agricultural papers embracing wide range
country, have noticed no account OF similar "ssA
of the weather. and it may probably have been con-
fined chiefly to the Atlantic coast.
