Extrad of a Letter from a I'ori/Jj'tre Parmer , Sept. 6. 



Of cur turnips, on indifferent land, very few have hit ; upon fine 

 fandy foils, they now promife to be tolerable. Potatoes are much 

 frefliened of late, and I hope will turn out better than expedted. 

 Oats are pretty good in general ; barley the fame, though much 

 fprouted, in confequence of the heavy rains. The ground was warm, 

 and fome people truited it in the fwath till it was grown moft (hock- 

 ingly. Part of mine is fo damaged as to be fit only for hogs. 

 "Wheat is alfo pretty good. Some of it, indeed, is fprouted ; and if 

 the prefent hazy weather continues much longer, the lofs will be 

 great. Upon the whole, I truft that our crop will turn out a to- 

 lerable one. 



Butcher-meat keeps at 6d. and 6 ^d. per lib. ; and my opinion Is, 

 that fat will prcferve its price ; for, though the grafs was burnt up, 

 our markets were never overllockcd ; and, during the time I have 

 been engaged in bufinefs, they ufed always to flag in a hot and dry 

 Summer. 



ExtrdB of a Letter from Hull, Sept. 10. 



The corn crops, which were much improved by the dfy warm 

 weather, have been damaged by the rains that lately fet in, and ftill 

 continue ; which make us fear that the quantity of fprouted grain 

 >will be equal to that of laft year ; but the quality being vallly 

 faperior, the lofs v^ill be more eafily fudained. The white crops 

 are in general fmall ; a great part is yet {landing, and little got 

 in. At our market yellerday, prices advancecl, there being many 

 ■ more buyers than fellers. Sales for wheat v.-crc — Peterlhurgh 90s. ;
