PARIS, July 10.-Violent thunder
storms have this week occurred in sew
eral parts of our territory, causing IN
their passage rather considerable dam
age, and the downpour has been so ex-
cessiye in some districts that further ser-1
ious inundations reapprehended. Har-
vest operations which were in active
progress in the South have been sus-
pended, consequent upon the, continued
inclemency of the weather, In Dauphl-
nv and Lower Burgundy harvesting is
equally procrastipated.a In the central
Departments great hesitation is shown to
commence harvest work, it being de-
ferred from day to day, in the expecta-
ton that the sun will reappear, but all
in vain. sRustn is doing much damage,
and the number of blackened ears is
very great. Half OF the grain fields are
beaten down. In our Immediate dis
itricts. although not so seriously affected,
|
much longer be injurioasly prolonged.
Rust is even, now making perceptibie
progress. and a quantity OF the ears
are immature. Harvest operations
cannot be undertaken for another week.
In the West the intermittent rains have
been very pernicious to the healthy for
nation of the grain, and, the quality
must prove defective. In Normandy
the prospect of good cereal crop enter
tanned a few days ago has now vanished,
and in some localities only medium

, of land has been subjected to the disas-
!. trous effects OF hail In the Northern
i. Departments, however, conditions still
continue satisfactory, and, save any adj
verse circumstances supervening. the
t harvest result will be good. In the
: Eastern provinces prospects are almost
i equally synonymous, few instances ex-
