Foreign Crops.

London, Aug. 26.--The reports of the
condition Of the cereals in France are favor
able. The crops are. pronounced,very good
in forty-two departments, good in thirty
seven, passable in six, good in Corsica, and
excellent in Algeria.
Yet the estimates of the probable Weld
in America and Eastern Europe indicate
that these countries cannot furnish the Gus
tsmary supplies of bread-stutfs, and that
England and Italy will require more than
usual.
The exports from France may possibly
exceed 100000 hectoletres, but it is
feared that the increase of the French taxes
on foreign cottons will have bad effect on
cammerce and restrict the facilities of
transportation. ~ III
