There is seurcely a newspaper in the country but what has sotuethiug to say about tho cheapness of pota toes on tbe market. In fact they are a drug; caunot be disposed of at any price. It is a matter greatly to be regretted, as it will have a tendency to restrain farmers from planting the usual quantity this season, and tbe consequence will be that next spring they will be as correspondingly hig as they are low in price this season Farmers should plant the usual quau tity as the yield may uot be so proli fio as it was last year.
