The Mark Lane Express of Jan. II, on
the crops Of Great Britain, gives the ayera-
ges of the wheat crop of 1872 and 1873, and
of other food crops of the same years. If,

decidedly under an average in most parts,

1871 was altogether bad, and in 1872 it was
thought that we had reached to the mini
mum of production in bread-corn. A COM
parison, however, Of the figures for the two
years will show that under the several
headings Of good, bad and Indifferent, 1873
is not more favorable. Thus:
Advices. Average. Over. Under.
In iSas.::"...a5 81 4 81 81
With some smaller growths not taken
into account, and a few more adviees col
lected in 1872, the totals Of ~under-average
returns come to almost the same; while in
in 1878 there is but a trifing variance
either as regards an average or over-average
when compared with 1872, and indeed,
when proved by these tables, the two years
come to tally in very noticeable degree.
On the other hand the barleys show far
bettea, the under-average being very small,
and although the western counties have
suffered, the condition and color in places
is much more satisfactory than the trade
had been led to anticipate. Of oats there
has been, taking the country through, a fair
average crop; but the beans will not rank
with the great growth of 1872, when, at all
points, for yield, condition and quality,
this was the crop Of the year. Peas show
better in the returns, as much better than
last year, and the balance might be struck
at an average.
The following is a summary Of the re-
turns for 1873:
Owe, .vera,e wheat Barley Oats Beam Peas .

Under ayeEags:-:.sA q 100 % 81
We also subjoin, to facilitate the COM
parison, a similar Summary for 1872:
Wheat Barley Oats Beans Peas

Smaller growths, etc 7 "a 81 13s 100
As regards the chief crop we can only re-
peat that which we said at this time last
year, viz, whether from the experience of
some seasons past 3 fresh acreage should
not be struck for the growth of wheat in
this country. Taking years like 1865, with
PCS returns under, 1871 with 32S under,
and 1872 with 354 under, it certainly looks
as if we were unable to maintain our previ-
GUS standard Of production. Moreover, we
not only grow less wheat but, in the graphic
description Of n correspondent, have COM
monty Uery plain crops; and a bad yield
and a bad quality have of late often gone
together. AS Mr.. Mechi tells US in the
Tiptree balances, 'the hailstOrms and bad
weather Of 1872 and the blight Of 1873
affected injuriously the main crop Of the
FARM while much of the ingathering in
1871 was so bad in condiditiOn as TO be for
a time unstable. However, after so good
a seed-time there may be a turn in the
tide, as there is every promise at present,
although it will take time to forget a run
Indifferent seasons, and Great Britain may
have still to look more or less anxiously to
her neighbors, her friends in America or
her relatives in Australia.

Before making any comment upon this
table let US go a step further and look to
the amount of public Indebtedness and
public taxation which rests upon these
classes.
Quoting again from the report of the Su-

National Indebtedness ......... 81, 400, 562,S 72

SHENANDOAH VALLEY RAILROAD
We learn, says the Weren, Va, Sentinel,
that the contraetqS IN the Shenandoah
Valley railroa(IBave been notified to hold
themselves in readiness to commence OPP
erations in January, In accordance with
this understanding the contractors are re-
tanning and feeding their stock. Those
who have the right to speak are perfectly
confident that the Shenandoah Valley
railroad will be built, and that pretty
soon.
