The wheat harvest has begun in Thu
county. So far as we have been able Il
ascertain, the quality and yield is good
We have heard Of rust in other portions
OF the State, but we believe this and al,
joining counties are exempt from it,

A gentleman whose business requires
him to travel q great deal, informed us
yesterday that he had rarely, if ever
seen such prospect for. wheat. The
breadth Of land sown he says is large
and the appearance Of the crop is beauti-
full. There is some rust but it is confined

Wheat harvesting, will commence in
our county during the incoming week
many of our fields being now almost
ready for the ''reapers ID From all parts
Of our own county, we have the most
fatteriDg accounts Of thewheat prospect;
and beyond o doubt our farmers will hars
vest the heaviest crop ever grown in
Warren county. We hear of slight "rustp
on one or two crops; but as the BLADES
only are effected it is not now likely to
produce any damage. From the coun-
ties above us--Wh ite, Van Buren,, Over
ton, Jackson, Fentress, as well as from
those lying around us-we have the same
flattering prospect as that enjoyed by our
county, McMinnville New Era, June
II.
Onr farmers have commenced harvest4
ing their wheat. The yield will be pretty
good, nearly or quite an average; and
the total number of bushels raised will
prove much greater than for any year
since the war.-Franklin Review, June

Next week the farmers of Bedford
county will be engaged in harvest>
ing one of the largest and best crops
of wheat ever grown in this coun-
ty. As far as we can learn, the crop is
fine throughout the adjoining counties,
especially in Lincoln. The corn crop in
Bedford is looking fine and doing well,
and we anticipate large yield in the fall.

From correspondent We learn that
the crops in Monroe county are looking
we'll, except the oats, which was some
what injured by the recent drouth. The
wheat is looking unusually fine, and will
soon be ready to harvest. Corn is thrifty.
i Kingston East Tennesseesn, June IL
Our Circuit Court still being in session
this week and large number Of farmers
being present we have made dilhgent
inquiry iabout the crop prospect. The
reports Of the corn crop are not sol favo~
rable. 1t is said to be more dwarhsh at
present than was ever known 10 this
county befere-but with good seasons
there will be an abundant supply of this
produce gathered next fall. The Aoat
crop is said to be excellent-better, Nm
fact, than for several years. The wheaS
is still unchanged to any material ex4
tent by the rust, and is considered out Of
danger. The fruit cropis not as good as
has been known in these part but the
deficit lacking in quantity will be made up
in the quality. The cold spells We have
experienced, of late has greatly deteri-
grated the growth Of all vegetation
