the most simple nature, as follows: pa,e

three are then passed between polished steer

plated composition, from which the cases,

\ very bezildering array ct reports

some newspapers. On the whole, the i'm
preston conveyedis that the outlook Is
rot favorable-ho, exactly bal, but IN
satisfactory.
This is the SORT Of crop news to which
we are accustomed in July since specu!a-
,ion in grain has assumed proportions so
vast, and has become so widely extended.
That ia, the crop reports IN general are
not worth much attention. They are
misleading. and are intended 70 be sn.
There is Just as much temptation TO doc
tor them to suit the purposes Of specula-
tors as there is 10 doctor reports about
the stocks sold in Wall street.
Whatever the news telegrsphed from
different regions Of the country, where
every disaster is magnided. and every
drawback multiplied III Importance. The
outlook for the crops seems TO be remark
ably good. II their has been any injury
done to spring whest, inr instance, IT has

ried over that there IS every prospect that
our supply of wheat will be as great after
the harvest Of lSs? as II was when the
cro.. of last year was gathered in Very
likely it will be more, and there is accord
ingly probability Of lover prices, making
bread lower
The other cr0p1, Oi corn, oats. rye, bar
ley, and yrass, all promise well III tie
opinion Of impartial and competent Oh
servera And there is good reason TO te-
heve what trey say. The weather has
been generally favorable. DG-ing the
last month, for instance, Il has been re
markabiy so on tAe ayersgr. We have
had a plenty of heat ard plenty Of
rain. No extensive TaraIes Of insects are
reported. aud nothing, indeed, has yet
been .e,egraphei which should induce an
intelligent maE To take gloomy view Of
rhe outlook H. TACT. we are inclined Ia
:hius that at present tie prospects axe of
an extraordinarily rich harvest.
We gel from England also very favora-
bic crop reports, and those mean that We
shall have D@er prices Il our harvest
turns out as We eyE-c, or rs well az 1t

no reason for rrophesving Ill Of the yield

observed, have the fields looked better at
