Ohio. The weather we are now ezve
riencfrig roust le worth to thp West, at
a moderate cilculation.three or four mil
lions per day. Ths grajps yhu:h are
thus being raide are not fictitious either,
lut real apd will therefore stand. La
bor, has performed its part on the crops,
and nature is grandly doing its share ' of
lh3 work. Altogether the prospects
were never more fsyprable for a year
of plenty. Of course, many of the crop3
are still liable to suffer ; but taking mat
ters as they stand, everything i3 encour
aging. Wheat is very nearly out of
danger. The fruit is. safe. Oats,barlej,
rye and grass are nearly so, end corn,
with an increased breadth of land plan
is growing fineiy. Confidence, in
fluenced by the fine weather and favora
ble crop reports, is steadily gaining, and
although business continues dull in the
general markets, there is a better feel
ing, and the 'gloomy forebodings which
have borne so heavily upon Merchants
for some time past, are giving place to
more agreeable anticipations.
We had occasion, says a correspond
entjto cross oVer'the Columbus and'Iriai
anapolis Central Railway from Piqua to
the Indiana State line, on Wednesday,
and took particular notice' of the whet
fields along the route, and do not hesi
tate that we never saw a finer prospec
tor a heavy crop, In that distance of
40 miles we did not see a single field
does not .promise well. Darke county
through which we passed more than half
the distance has beccre one of the
best wheat counties in the State, and the
indications are that its reputation' will
be fully sustained by the product this
year.
In Butler county fruit of all kinds is
abundapt in this vicinity, and whsat is
looking usually well ; much of it is be
ginning to head.
In Medina county the crops all lock
well here. Wheat never looke4 better.
Apples and peaches will be plenty; the
prospect never was better. Our Spting
;s late here. Oats are all sown. Corn
is not much planted it has been too wet
weather.
In' Mercer county wheat will make
half a crop if nothing happens to it. Of
corn we have a very poor prospeet for ;
it is not rpsre thin half planted yet, and
the most that is planted will have to be
done over. Flax tacks remarkably well
considering the cold and wet weather.
We have had the coldest and worst
Spring jhat I eyer saw. There are go
ing to be lots of fruits of ell kinds.
In Hancock 'county the wheat crop
looks very well, but on account of the
high price and scarcity of seed-wheat
jast Fall, t&ere jya's not near the 'amount
of land sown that there usually is ; but
if nothing happens to it between now
and harvest, a fair yield will be obtained
Oats and grass look fair.but our farmers
are quite backward with their corn, on ac
count or ine late season, .ineirutt crop
is usually very promising.
Indiana. The prospect in Ripley
county, so far as ray knowledge extends,
tor wneat is excellent, uats ana grass
are short, and backward for the season
The prospect for the various fruits has
cot been so good for a number of years,
end, as the season is far 'advancea, we
regard an abuudantcropasafixed fact."
The wheat crop in Clay county is light.
There is not more than one-half the
usual quantity sown. Very little corn
planted as yet. Jhe fruit has been se
riously injured by frost.
In most sections of this State, particu
larly in the northern par, fruit arid grain
of ail descriptions are excellent. The
wheat will be the test in "many years.
m.dll fruits will be uncommonly abun
dant.
, JYpbraskc. Tb.2 prospect cf a hsavy
crop of wheat in all sections of the South
Platte is excellent. Wheat' and other
cereals never looked better, and that the
prospect for a heavy prop is very flitter
ing. The same cheering news come3
from farms of all sections. Another
such harvest as was garnered Jast year
and our young State will stand pre-eminent
as the wheat-growing Slate of the
Union.
The prospects for a splendid crop cf
wheat are reported to be very favorabls.
The high prices obtained 'since Iast 'har
vest caused a much larger breadth to be
sown than usual; and, should no June
frosts or ether damage occur, there is no
doubt .that there will be a krger rnnr-
keted this Fall than ever before. There
is no conflideuce in the continued high
prices of wheat or flour, and, notwith
standing the vigorous efforts cf holders
prices are. going down at long strides.
The prospecs of the corn crop have
been damaged by the wet' and cold
weather, but they are no worse than in
the Spring of 1S65, when the hirvest
wes an uhumally good one ; so that we
may hope ihe present'tawardaess may
be made up as the season advances.
. We are inclined from a" large number
of reports received during ,;he week to
take a hopeful view of the situation so
fa:: as the corn crop is concerned. Mvch
that thought rotted and spoiled, n.r'v be
gins to come up, the cold ground having
kept it in check so far- The stand. how
ever, will be uneaeq, as much' w'.ill Le
replanted." All small grains are giving
continued promise of good crops. The

Northern Illinois. The wheat crop just
at present fair to be excellent in this sec
tion. We have recently traveled through
portions of Bureau. Henry and Stark.and
find the wheat crop to be very promising
in appearance. The stand is uniformly
good. The breadth sown appears to be
large, and the indications are 'ha;, V'h
a favorable season, we shall have one of
the finest" wheit crc js W3 b.ave had for
a number of years. , "'.
Western Illinois.- The Jlullon Tele
graph stays: "We have within the past
few weeks traveled ever a certain con
siderable section cf country ia thi3 neigh
borhcod, apd can therefore say, from cur
own personal knowledge, that thers ter
er wis a better 'prcmiso of a beautiful
wheat crop than we have the present
season. The wheat stands thickly on
the ground, and the 'weather, ia'all re
spects, since spring opened, has been
just such as is best calculated to produce
a large yield of the best quality."
Michigan. The prospect for fruit is
splendid. The peaches and earlj cher
ries escaped the1 frost, and' the trees are
very full. Fall and spring crops all prom
ise a bountiful yield in our coun'ry.
Pennsylvania. The Cleanfield ot:r
naisays: The prospect for a large crop
of apples in this county is quite flattering
at present. We understand that in some
sections the pe'aches alone promise a fine
crop. This is gratifying news to lovers
of good fruit. The weather being fa
vorable, much of the corn was planted
last week. In some sections the far
mers got in their entire planting, and
others will fiinish this week, ihe weath
er permitting. Corn can still mature,
the weather being auspicious, if planted
next week.
The Oxford Press says: The prospect
of an abundant wheat crop in.th.3 south
ern townships of Chester and Lancaster
counties and the northern part of Cecil
county is still very flattering, and should
the weather continue fovorable we shall
have a more abundantharvest than for
many years. It is now nearly all in
head, but the heavy rains of the last few
days have knocked it down very much.
The grass has grown rapidly within the
last week.
' " The Oil City Petroleum say?: 'Through
this section of the State the wheat crop
looks very well better, indeed, than hi
fcje not yet finished sowinw oats. No
corn is yeq planted, and most farmers i
have not go': the ground ready. The
gras crop is very luxuriant, the weath
er favgring jt mre that other crops."
Delaware. Although- strawberries
have become an important item in the
productions of Delaware, the great crop
of the Slate this year will be peaches.
In all parts of the States the' trees are full
of the finest fruit, and looking vigorous
and healthy." They will no doubt ripen
a larger crop thaa has ever heretofore
been produced.
Virginia. The Harrisburg Union
says: )Ye believe we may safely assert
that "the prospect for an abundant yield
of the bounties of the earth' was never
more promising ia' this part cf the State
than at the present time." The growing
crop of wheat is extraordinary fiine.
The crop of rye, never very large'with
us, promise well. The crop, though a
little late, is'comingdut wonderfuliy.and
promise a large yield. Gardens are
late, but promise w?ll. As to the fruit,
there 13 no end to it, and if no accident
befalls it, the yield will be greater than
'oefrre knowri in this country. And
this is true cf all kinds of fruit, from me
largest to the smallest varieties. In
Western Virginia the apple crop is not
sj premising as generally supposed. .
Jllnryland. Our exchanges continue
to report the crops in. Maryland as prom
ising a large yield. The S. ' Michael's
Comet, states that the reports of the
wheat crop in Talbot county are gener
ally favorable, though' it hears cf seme
fields that have suffered severely from
the fly. This is particularly thg case
with latter white wheat, where no fer
tilizer was applied. The Worcester Shield
saj3 : ''We. have never seen corn grow
faster and there 'is' generally a good
stand and a larger quanti:y thaa usually
p'anted. Wheat is looking well, and we
shall doubtless have more than an aver-
age crop, nnd the grain will be good.
Oats hav cstonishicgly improved since
the weather became seasonable, and
most of the fears of a bad crophav pass
ed awav. Abundance of Irish ct;d sweet
potatoes have been planted in this coun
ty, more than ever befure.''
On the prospect in Montgomery coun
ty the Rochville Sentinel says : ,4The
wheat in Montgomery coun'y generally
looks bolter thaa it has done at this sea
son for several years. Th'e prospect for
an abundant harvest "is very flattering'.
The grass crop, too, is usually promising
Oats; which have'been looking very bad
ly until within the past few days, have
mi proved yonderfclly since the cotn
meijcement of the present warm spell.ahd
now bid fair to be fully aa average crop.
Corn', cuMiig to the late p.laiuin, ocx-a-sicr.nd
by the incessant rains which pre
vailed during th3 m'cntifcf April and
May, does not make much show yt?i.
