Owing to the uncortainty of prices, we 

 make but few alterations in our table for the 

 present number. Country produce generally 

 remains firm. The accounts from most re- 

 gions, are quite favorable as regards the crops 

 A very great improvement has taken place 

 within the last few weeks, and the prospect 

 of average crops is cheering. There is still 

 great pressure in the money market — many 

 of the merchants in the principal cities, heavy 

 dealers, and speculators have sunk before the 

 storm. The commercial, manufacturing and 

 mechanical interests have felt its fury, — but 

 amid all the desolation and wide spread 

 ruin, the agricultural interest stands firm 



and unshaken — The faithful cultivator of the 

 soil, if true to him.self, has nothing to fear. 



To Correspondents and Subscribers* 



After the present number was in type, we 

 received several communications, among them 

 one, entitled " A Trip to Maryland." We 

 regret that they were not received in season — 

 but they shall appear in our next. itT" A 

 notice to subscribers is also unavoidably de- 

 ferred. ^^ 



The Money Market is still in a very un- 

 settled state, — Bank notes are from 7 to 10 

 per cent, below the par value of Americaa 

 silver.
