The Crop at Home and Abroad. The nccpuuts of the crops in England arc all of the most dist oiirnginif character.

A work ago they looked tntie " uifieentl v. We must import food largely from • "somewhere. Accounts from Germany are T"jnst as bad, and throughout Central Europe.'' t We hear, al-o, that. English orders for i American produce were triplicated, iu some instances, by the last mail. I It is 'now too late to hope that England can t have anything like tin average crop. Up to i the sth August the w hat was only just off the blooming, ami as the nighls were then geetiog longer and colder, s : x week-', at least, would i l>e r> quired to bring the grain to maturity.— i The farmers were not expecting to begin to harvest before or about the second week in i September, which is from a month to five weeks later than the average of years. A late harvest is alw avs a pn eari< us one, and a writer in the Al.irk Lane Krjtre&s expresses a doubt whether this year it will be concluded before November. The same writer Calculates ftbat England will require from seven to eight ! "million quarters of foreign wheat to make np the deficiency in the stock and crop for the year. The usual importation of foreign wheat into England is about 5,000,000 quarters, i which is little less than one quarter of the en lire c-msnmpt ion of the United kingdom. It ! seems that besidoa the bad whether there wa> about one-fifth less breadth of wheat than use d this year in Kngieml. | On this side we have an unprecedented,and from alt accounts, nn inexlianstiWlu crop of cereal-,.
