LONDON, August g. 1872
The reports OF the condition OF cereals In France
are favorable. The crops are pronounced very
good in forty departments, good In thrtyseven,
passable In six, good In Corsica and excellent in
Algeria. Yet the estimates of the probable yield In
America and Eastern Europe indicate that those
countries cannot furnish the customary supplies OF
breadsturs, and that England and Italy will re.
quire more than usual.
The export from France may possibly exceed
O00 900 hectolitres but it Is feared that the in
crease of the French taxes foreign bottoms will
have q bad effect on commerce and restrict the
facility of transportation.

THE HARVEST IN FRANCE. agricultural
reports from the departments Of France, by
which the yield of the harvest is averaged in
anticipation, according to law, are favorable
with respect to the forthcoming supply Of
breadstuffs. Cereals will crop favorably within
the territory of the Republic and in Algeria,
but the total will not be excessive. England
and Italy are likely to be heavy customers to
France, as well as to the United States, for
wheat and corn, but it is thought the increase
Of the French tariff tax on foreign vessels will
restrict the transportation Of exports. The
question Of the supply of breadstuffs in France
has been one of the most serious which has
presented to the governments of that country
in the days of its powerful ancient monarchies
and since Napoleon the Great paid particu-
lar attention to the agricultural estimates, in
sistng that three sets of returns should be
forwarded to him at intervals during the sea-
son, from the first appearance of the cereals
over ground to the days after the day of reap
ing. President Theirs is, no doubt, equally
vigilant, knowing, as he does the truth of the
saying that even, thrones have gone up and
tumbled down with the price of oats.
