and there are always needy occupiers
forced upon the markets, with BUYERS
less ready to meet their views. We
wish we could write as favorably of
potatoes as of the corn, but the RAIN
came in such volumes and with such per-
tinacity. that there was little chance of
much amendment when the fine weather
appeared. and there is much injury
from the prevalent disease.
FROM LANCASHIRE.
The finest weather continues, and har-
vest work is making rapid productions.

are more than sufficient for Immediate

From the East Riding OF Yorkshire !;
Weather since our last has peer as fine

with harvest operations; seldom has so
much corr been cut in so short a period
as dcring the past week, but, so far, but
little is gathered even in the most tor
ward soils in this district. The accounts
from the south are,, on the whole, un-
satisfactory, especially as regards wheat,

ard an opinion as to the crops in the
counties of Yorkshire and Lincolnshire,
