The - Weather--The
As there seems to be much anxiety, in different
parts of the country, on account of the crops, (es
• pecially in view of the' continued demands likely
'.to be - made upon us from abroadO we have thought
it .would be interesting- to our readers to keep
them advised of the prospect foe wheat, Rm., in the
diffirentparts of our country, as it is stated in the
various newspapers upon our exchange list ; and,
as the'state of the weather, in our own section of
. the .country, is a matter of interest-to others, re
mote from us, we will give an idea of that also.
The weather, durirg the teat week, generally,
was quite warm and continued so until - Sunday
evening; when the atmosphere underwent a con
siderable change. There were Showers in the fore
noon, and brief intervals of siMshine through the
day; but soon after sundown the sk r becarne en
tirely overcast; and vivid lightning ) was seen in
almost every direction—folloWed, at about 0 o'-
clock, with a very heavy fall Of ram and much
wind. There were occasionally showers of rain
until Monday afternoon, and a cool atmosphere:
. On Tuesday the weather was; very cool ;—more
pleasant on Wednesday and it is still becoming
more seasonable.
The wheat crop in onr immediate vicinity, from
alt that we can hear, will not be more than an ave
rage one. The prospect for spring, graM is good .
and the prospect for most kinds of vegetables and
fruit, as good as usual.
The Springfield (Mass.) Gazette says, that from
all quarters we receive cheering accounts of the
prospect of an abundant harvest." The Boston
Transcript, of the 10th, says: , i' From every quar
ter we hear of the promising condition of the grow
ing wheat crop. Occasionally there,is a note of
complaint that the crop here !or them has been
winter-killed ; but ;he news of the death is never
confirmed. The truth is, thaOhe crops, as a gen
eral thing, were never more promising."
In NewlYork, the correspotident of the Tribune ,
suiting from Saratoga, June?lOtti, • The
appearance of the crops is wuch better hereabout
than Iliad expected from the kepresentations I had
of the Spring drought. The late warm rains have
reirebbed and ini igorated the vegetation of this
section so much that the faimers now consider
their prospects of a fair crop quite flattering. The
glass crops have been peculiarly bene6tted by the
late copious showers." _ And a Genesse county
paper says: " Farming in this county is a touch
infer business than in many_ portions of the state .
While, the %%heat crop has been elsewhere either
destroyed or greatly injured, the fields of this coun
ty never looked more promising than at present.
Our farmers may gather some consolation from
the reflection that they have more wheat, stronger

"The Monmouth (New Jersey) Inquirer, informs
.us that—"tbe earth will, this,year, yield her trea
sures in great abundance. The grass on high
ground, it is true will be shint, but then that on
low ground will be full, if not alarge crop. From
inquiry, and so far as our experience extends.(and
we have, within a few days, bud n good opportuni-
ty making observations concerning this matter,)
the potato crop never gave more favorable promise.

astonishingly within the last Vreek or tw•o. The
same might be said of Rye ; and both now• bid fair
fora good crop. -Oats, Corn; and all the various
kinds of truck, present a most luxuriant aspect.—
Peaches, in many f. ee t ions oft our County, we see
and are told are very promising, and an average
crop at this delicious fruit may be expected. Ap
ples are not so fair—a small crop is anticipated."
In our own State the occounte vary, in different
sections of it. We expect to give them as they
• appear. In Clearfield county, says the Banner, of
June sth ;—"it is somewhat gratifying that we
continue to have a very fair prospect of quite an
abundant crop, not only of peaches, but of apples,
cherries, plums, &c." The Lehigh Register says:
—"The wheat crop is expected to be about an .
-average one; the Rye crop his not been better for
the last fifteen years; the fields were fairly amok-.
ing as the blossoms flew off. ' Corn, potatoes, grass
and oats all looking promiSing. Owing to the
Vackwardness of the winter 'crops, and the expec
tation of reaping but a poor harvest, stimulated
farmers to the use of every inch of ground for
summer crops, which will add much to the agri

abundant harvest is very fine. Wheat is as good !
as be ever saw it at this time of the year, and corn,
notwithstanding the backwardness of the planting
season, is quite promising." But the Lagrange
(Nlissouri) Free Press, gives a bad account of the
wheat in that putt of the State. The editor says:
We have conversed with intelligent farmers from
different pails of the country, and their uniform
opinion is that there will not be one-tenth part or
the wheat raised this season that there ,alas last
year. A kind of bug or fly has commenced its
ravages on the wheat with hie most ruinous effects.
Some fields that escaped through the winter, have
fallen victims to this scourge. The Corn crop
promises an abundant harvest
The Miliia9kie (Wisconsin) Sentinel, of a late
date, says:— So far as Wisconsin is concerned,
we are persuaded that the yield of wheat will be
abundant, unless something shall occur between
this and harvest, to injure the crop. In Illinois it
has been stated that the crop was almost entirely
cut off; but it would appear from the Aurora Bea
con (Kane Co) that this is an exaggeration.—
Within the last feW weeks, wheat fit that region
has come forward astonishingly, and many farmers
who supposed that their crops had been almost
wholly destroyed, now anticipate an average yield.
From Michigan on the East and lowa on the
West of us, vie have good accounts of the wheat
crop."
The St. Joseph (Mich.) Republican, says: "We
hear numerous complaints of the 'ravages of the
fly on the -wheat crop. In many parts of this
county entire fields are being swept by that
destructive insect, and we hear of similar com
plaints west ans." There has also been a very
destructive hail storm, which did great injury to
the fields arid fruit trees. Some of the hail stones
were six inches in circumleience.
From the Gazette, (Licking Co., Ohlo,) we
learn that " the wheat has been Winter-killel, and
there was not a field but what was badly spotted
and very thin Unless the low lands do better,
there will not be hall a crop in this county, per
baps not a fourth. And the Geauga County Re.
publican states !that the crop would have been an
average one, notwithstanding the unfavorableness
of the winter, but for the ravages of the Fly, which
it is feared, is operating very extensively in the
southern and the - middle portions. of the State.—
In Preble county, on the 30th ult. there was a
very severe hail storm, which destroyed much of
the grain.; and nearly all the fruit.
We may have been hasty in our 'notice of the;

But it is certain that the streets are in a lrad con

that he approves of the course of that paper, be

few of this city. The Governor knows well from
experience that the reputation of an honest man
is safer in the keeping of the honest multitude.—
They do not, for political purposes, become retail

have a proper and sacred regard for the decencies
and proprieties of life. Three years ago, the

fishing the conversation (furnished to him by one
of his own cloth,) of-Mr. Shunk at a tea table in

poverty, would,not disgrace themselves by conduct
of this kind.

old tones of the revolution amongst them ? Do
any of your father's old friends and companions
(not in arms, but in flight to Canada,) reside in this
place, Mr. Biddle!
Ma. liariren—Sir: When looking over, your
paper - of Tuesday last, I observed that you pub
lished the prriceedings of the Select Council, re
garding the grade of Grant and Fifth streets. At.-
cordini, to your report, which I believe to be cox•
rect, they propose lowering the grade of Grant
street, where it intersects Fifth street, four feet be
low the present grade; but at the same time, they
contemplate elevating Smithfield street two and a
half : feet. where itOfeesects Fifth street. We are
of the opiniOn that this will not answer the end
contemplated: that is, to reduce the nob on Grant
street, at Fifth. What has Smithfield to do with
Grant street! We think it would be much better
to take three or four feet more off Grant street.
and let Smithfield street alone—as this could be
done with less cost to the city, and a great deal
lee injury to private property. We believe that
it - is admitted on all hands, that Grant and Fifth,
ut their intersection, is a great deal too high . '
But if it is thought that now is the proper time to
reduce the grade, (as there is no doubt but it wilt
some day be done,) does it follow that at that time'
Smithfield street should be injured in its business
facilities! Smithfield street is one of the best
graded streets in our city, and the most direct road
running from the Brownsville Boats . landing to the
Canal ; and at the present, (to say nothing of the
future,) is a street on which a vast amount of ha
siness is done. Moreover, it should be remembered'
that a large majority of the members of the Corn
mon Council see a great propriety in lowering
Grant where it intersects Fifth street, ten feet be
low the present grade; and at the same time they
can see no propriety in elevating Smithfield street,
and have passed no ordinance to that effect. The
reason is obvious. If you raise Smithfield street
ten feet, that would not lower Grant street one
inch. They think that if an obstruction is on
Grant street, there is no reason that, in its remo•
vat, it should be placed on Grant street. But we
think the time is not far distant when that hill at
the intersection 3f Grant and Fifth streets shall be
brought low; and all who are interested in this
matter will see the propriety of letting the grade
of Smithfield remain as it is, and Grant and Fifth
streets be made to correspond, as far as practicable,
with the present grade of Smithfield and Pennsyl

GREAT FALL IN THE FLOUR MARKET.
ADV4NCE IN COTTON
PIIILJ.1)11Li.111 A, June IS, 3h. 40m., P. M
By the arrival at Boston, this forenoon, of the
steam ship Cambria, we have advices from Liver
pool to the 4th inst.
Notwithstanding the strong expectations, enter
tained previous to the depdrture of the last stea
mer, that the Grain market would maintain an
upward tendency, the contrary proves to be the
case. The late fine weather in England,-and onthe
Continent, promising e Rorahle harvest, 4hnd
the effect of materially depressing theiiiii - g5 of
Fleur and Grain, and contracting the extent of
transactions in these articles.
The advices which were taken : out . by the Cam
bria of a light stock in l our nitii*Tcreated con
siderable activity; which, aided - I4jii:' relaxation
which has taken place in the pressure of the money
market, have largely tended to re-establish a freer
desire to speculate. The reports of the probable
failure of the Potato crop of Ireland and Jersey,
have also had their influence in producing this re
sult.
The markets have fallen 208 per qr from •the
highest point. Flour, which had declined to 40s.
is, however, now worth 435, and may be fairly
quoted at this rate. Of the best western the prices
range from 37 to 38s.
' American Wheat brings from 10s. 4d. to 12s. 6d
.7 '7O lbs. Indian Corn was tolerably steady at 535.
for yellow ; and, owing to the increased demand
from Ireland, white has commanded 2s. qr. above
currency and yellow. Meal ranges between 255.
and 315., with a tendency to higher quotations.
The export of Breadstuffs from the United States
to Great Britain and Ireland, from the Ist of Sep
tember, 1846, to the I.4th of May, 1547, is, of
Flour, 156,812 bbls.; Corn Meal, 434,432 bbls.;
Wheat, 1,512,274 bush.; Oats, 271,553 bush.
Cotton has materially improved. Apprehen
sions of short receipts frcrn our country, and a
bad season for the growing crop, hate caused the
advanced improvement. It is likewise attributed
,to the greater risein the money a market. On the
; %'vhole, the condition and prospects of the Cotton
market, present a very favorable aspect Uplands
arc sold et 5, 50. to 7d4 New Orleans, 5a to SP.;
Alabama and Mobile 5a to 73d.; and Sea Islands,
12a to 291
British bad Iron sells at £0 7s. to „£.12 55.. No
alteration in prices. Lead, Tin, and American
I Copper, in bond, £l5 10s. to £l6 10s.
LATEST FROM MEXICO.
PUILADZLPFIII, June 73, tth. P. M.
We have a published letter from Santa Anna
resigning the Presidency unless his plans should be
adopted. What these plans are, will - be seen when
the newspapers shall reach you. It is now univer
sally believed that there will be a hard fought bat.

PROVISIONS--Not affected by the news; no

The supply of P!ovisions moderate The de.
wand for Beef is languid. Butter and Cheese
brings a fair price, the consumption is unusually
great, Hams dull, infrrior stocks accumulating;
the merchants are not disposed to operate largely.
Financial prospects are animating the Bank of
En - gland to discount more freely, whichtivss-con
fidence to traders.
cO•We stated yesterday that the Hospital bt;ird
had accepted the munificent propOsitiOnof James
S. Craft., Eeq., for the sale of KhMIA. The Gaz
ette says that subsequent to the offer of Mr. Craft
the Hon. Harmer Denny had intimated his inten•
lion to give the 1l acres of his Springfield farm,
which was the subject of negotiation, as a dona
tion. This is truly magnanimous; and should
there be no drawbacks, relicts the highest credit on
the heirs of the O'Hara estate. Between the two
sites all our preferences are on the side ofKAL3tiA
for the purpose intended. It lies to the south and
' east, and is sheltered from , the rude north and
westwardly winds, which make the Springfield
Knott.s . so bleak. But as a gift, it will be,difficult
lo reject Mr. Denny's,property. The one is like a
beautiful girl, not altogether portionless, but on
whom nature hies lavished the most charming
qualities; the other an heiress, cold and austere,
but possessing all those shining attractions which
captivate mercurial hearts.
