The .JOURSAL has received what
appears to be very conservative and
presumably correct report on the condi
ton Of the apple crop in Great Britain,
Houghton 4 60 Liverpool and London,
which has an agent in New York This
report presents a summary Of returns in
one hundred and forty different parts OF
districts in the nited Kingdom, from
blanks sent out by the house, by which
it appears that In 10 districts the crop Is
very thin, poor or almost failure; in
4 half a crop or under the average; in
- fair, good or an average. and in
above the average or heavy. The
Messrs. fiought0n say: From this
it appears that the crop is UNI
doubtedly under average but our
opinion ia it will be decidedly smaller
than even these figures would lead US to
suppose, for the reason that many OF
the estimates were arrived ut two and
three weeks since, and within the past
ten days the nted Kingdom has been
visited with two or three severe gales,
which have blown very large quantity
OF apples Off the trees, thus materially
reducing the crop, but to what actual
extent it is impossible to say. Regard
ing prices. our opinion is thev will not
rule quite so high rs last season, but a
good demand at fair rates may reason
ably be looked forward to. We again
particularly impress upon our friends
the Importance Of using great care in Sc
lectiug and packing; and we strongly
advise them not to send forward any
very small or common fruit, AS the re
suits of such are usually anything but
satisfactory"
