THE CRoPs.-Corn and tobacco, craving
upon river and creek bottoms, will, we are
told, prove good, whilst crops on the hills
have been cut short at least one-half From
the Barren regions, the accounts are as vari-
Gus as the rains have been partial. In some
neighborhoods, the crops are very fine, in
Others average, and in others still very poor.
From such mixed accounts, nothing like a
reliable estimate can be made and nothing
but the in-gathering can settle the question
of supply.

FINANCIAL.-The New York Commercial Adj
rertiSer OF yesterday says: The chief matter
OF interest on Wall street is the tirmness of the
gold premium and the large export of gold by
the Persia. The shipments, so far as reported
10 the present, amount TO S36tO,OO0: but il is
quite likely thai the total will reach StOOO 900
1hls unexpectedly large shipment is due par.
TALLY TO the return of railroad stocks from
London. The Scotia brought about two thous-
and shares of Erie and three thousand shares
of Illinois Central; but the Persia takes ont
nearly an equal amount of Erie. The chief
shipments, however, are made by the German
bankers, whose advices by the Scotia call for
large remIttances. Probably the commercial
balances with Germany are in our favor: but
apart from these, there are large amounts
loaned by German capitalists 10 this country
or OF capital held here for use on account OF
Germans: and these sources are now being
heavily drawn upon. The Germans appear
10 have no confidence in the European Con-
terence, and are acting, in this matter, upon
the presum ptiOn that there will certainly be-
war We are somewhat surprised TO lind
from private advices by the Scotia, that eyen
among the private holders of Five-twentIes
IN Germany there are many sellers
Not few find il necessary TO realize upon
securities, and as FIve-twenties have fallen
little in comparison with home securities they
appear the most desirable security upon which
to realize. So tar this movement NAV pro-
gress, II Will OF course tend to foster the drain
OF gold from this side; unless the London mar
ket, having recovered from panic, should prove
10 be prepared 10 take the bonds on speeula
ton; winch is, perhaps, reasonable proba-
blllty. The advance In gold is making securi-
ties cheap here as compared with London. and

THE END OF THB STRIKE IN NEW YoRK.-It
was stated yesterday that the great strike OF
the shipcarpenters and cauikers in New York
tor the eight-hour system, had come to an
end. Ii appears that at a large meeting of the
journeymen and their friends, held on Tues
day morning, it was announced that MANY
shlpwrights who had been at the first strenuous :
advocates OF the movement had proved recra
ant TO the cause, and gone back to work ON the
old plan.
The chairman also made a statement to the
effect that the dock companies had combined
against them, by not permitting vessels to go
their docks to be repaired by eight hour men.
Under these circumstances he deemed it iuex
pedient 10 longer hold out. These views seemed
10 meet with general appreciation. The result
of it all was, the unanimous adoption of a reso-
linton resembling the one passed on the second
OF April, calling upon employers to recog.
niZe eight hours as a regular days work The
meeting then adjourned, with the understand :
ing that all hands might 60 10 work in future
on any terms they choose. There are some
other organizations holding out for the eight
hours principle that will probably follow the
example thus set by the shipjoiners.
