The Crop PraSnect for 1865.

Il we nave already reproduced enough IRON
our exchanges to show that everywher,
throughout our loyal land the husbandmar
will he greeted with the most generous har
vest; and even in portions of that part O
the Republic so recently devastated by the
war against treason and barbarism, the
ae indications of encouraging crops, Wee
we to call the roll of the States and enquire
as to the crops, we should receive the same
reply. aaa
Maine says that wheat and rye look bet
ter than usual, and the barley is fully up tc
the average
New Hampshire says she has the promise
OF an immense grass crop, although she has
much old hay on hand
In Vermont there is more than an average
amount of ga in the ground, and ever,
thing looks we'll.
/ From Massachusetts we have the assu-
rance that the coming hay crop will be- I'M
precedented, though there will be only a
moderate crop Of apples and pears. Pota-
toes are making grand show, though corn
lags behind as usual le 4
Connecticut says of grass. we are to have
a great yield this year. Other crops are
fully up to the most favorable years
] Rhode Island boasts that all the crops
look well, and about the average amount of
barley, oats and spring wheat was sown,
The EInpire State says that at the West
and all over the country the crops were
never more promising Wheat, hay and
oats promise well, corn has good start,
and the harvests will be unusually early
New Jersey rejoices in the rains that have
brought forward the crops finely. -ae
From Pennsylvania we hear that the
wheat looks fiucly,' of oats there will be an
abundance, every spare acre having been
sown. The prospects throughout the State
were never better for most plentiful
yield ...
In little Delaware wheat, rye and every
thing else are fully up to the average
| Maryland expects bountiful yield of
peaches apricots and other fruits, as well as
liberal harvest of grain.
AS to Ohio. we are at home here, and
need not be reminded of the bright prospect
which gives pleasure to the eye of the hus-
bandrnan Hs.-.
In Indiana, also, we are well acquainted
and need not eulogize upon the bountiful
promise of the season.
| In Kentucky, wheat, rye and barley prom
Use more than an average crop. The farm
ers complain of want of help.
Illinois sends up the gratifying assuranc
that oats are looking splendid!y, whea
could not look better, and the corn promises

A good report comes from Iowa. All the
crops look better than usual in nearly all
parts of the State though bugs have been
injuring them III some localities.
In Minnesota. above St. Paul, wheat is
said to be drug in the market at fifty
cents bushcl The enormous cost of
freight make heavily against that State.
Wheat OH the prairies it is said, does not
look so well as last year; thougfrit will be
remembered that this was almost the only
State that had a good crop in 1854. More
oats have been sown than usual this
year. -.' ..lH
AS for Wisconsin we are told that
cit is the universal testimony that wheat
never gave better promise of an album
dant harvest than it now does" A good
harvest of all kinds of crops is anticipa-
ted. | I'd .s
In Michigan, wheat ''never promised
better" and the harvest will be week
earlier than USUAL. II is supposed that
nearly one half of last years crop is still in
the hands of the farmers. aHf ~.
So much for the loyal States. AS to the
recently dsloyal States, the accounts are
far more encouraging than would be uatu
rally supposed, on considering the circup
stances. There is much complaint of lack
OF labor to cultivate and harvest the crops,
but this is probably due more to the ugli-
ness of the planters towards the freedmen
than anything else. When the farmers of
Virginia resolve, in combination, that
they will pay but five dollars per month
to laboreis, they may expect to do their own
work. iH ao sr .,J, @ fEa ...... ...r

In North Carolina, says the Charlotte

hands i'll thatpart of the State still remain
at their usual occupation. The corn CROPS

poor Never before was such breadth of
