THE NEWFOUNDLAND FIsHERIES.-The Boston
Journal of yesterday says:
Our latest dates from Newfoundland speal of
improvements in the fishery prospects of the isl
and and Labrador, tho accounts received from the
latter place being especially encouraging. The
the Greenland whale fishery, from st. Johns, has
returned after m absence Of about two months,
with full fare, roughly valued at eight thousand
pounds. The Wolf was engaged in the spring seal
fishery, and was successful at that, and it is
thought that the success that has attended tho
first venture in the new enterprise will give her
many companions next year. The failure for years
back of the shore fishery of the island has caused
merchants to turn their attention to the bank
fishery, several vessels having been fitted out for
its prosecution this year.

YIELD.-An extensive dealer of Illinois informs us
that the corn crop of that State promises an ex-
traordinary yield 1t is his opinion that tho new
products will not bring 25c. per buehel in the

for stock hogs, and so scarce are these now that,
apparently, there are none in the country. Yet it
is his opinion that the next hog crop will be much
larger than is generally anticipated. Hogs are now

Trade i'm New York.

The following, from the InGtpcndcH tells some
facts which will open the eyes of our country
cousins:
New York merchants in old times used to cnjcy
other III fall, midsummer and m:d-winter being
devoted to running about, settling up accounts,
and making preparations for the next season.
But the facity of communication with all parts of
the country has changed the whole business rela-
ions of the city and the country, aud the busy
season now extends from January to Jnnuary.
Out-of-town customers bay more sparngly, but
buy ottcner. and the new system is Immensely bet
ter for ali parties. Crct: is curtailcd by it, and
the danger Of laying i'll too largo stock is avoided.
For the past two or three years our merchants
have had a busy season all the year round; but
business has never before bccn SO lively in what
used to be the ducst season of tho year, in July
and August, as during the past two months. The
opening of trade with the South has given an i'm
pcus to business which is n surprise to the most
sanslinc. The great difficulty with importers and
iobhers is to keep UP their stocks. Most of the
goods imported are sold before they arrive Extra
steamers are sent ont hy the Cunartlcrs to bring
over the piles of freight that accumulate in the
warehouses i'll Liverpool waiting for transporta-
Tie Bremen, Hamburg and Hayrc steamers
stop et southampton, To pick mp the freight sent
there from various points of tho continent and
from Manchester, birmingham, and other inland
manufacturing towns, which cannot bc taken hv
the regular lines from Liverpool, while extra
steamers arc sent across the Atlantic with carsoes
from Glasgow. The increase OF traffic with the
South is still more remarkable. There is now
three times the amount OF steam tonnage employ
ed in the carrying trade between New York and
the South that there was before tho rebellion.
The business of railways is proportionatoly
large; there Is now more cotton stored i'll New
York than was at any time before the rebellion;
our manufacturers are all fully employed, and
several new establishments are unable to increase
their business from a lack of labor. An agent for
q Southern house, one day last week, went to a
certain jobbing, dry goods house to fill order,
and was told that no more goods could be sold
that day, as they had already sold since morning,
three hundred thousand dollars worth, and thoy
could take no more orders until they had packed
and shipped what they had already sold. And
President removing all restrictions from trade
with the South after the LIST Of September, has
given still greater impetus to business, for there
were great many contraband articles which
were greatly needed at the South that are now
going forward rapidly. So, busy as our merchants
have oil been, they are likely to be still more go
during the next two or three months
