we learn It has rained plentifully at a distance

Fouil du Lae, VVis,, July 2M.— The prospects 
for a big crop of wheat In this county are joop- 
arrtized by a little insect, heretofore unknown 
In this section, and about the size and shape of 
a louse, which lufests the beads of grsln and 
sucks out the vitality. It has been discovered 
within the last few days, and its ravages are 
already such as to alarm farmers.—g.

and Lhere seems no doubt that all small grain 
crops will be better than has been knowu for a

Grain.- The close of the week shows a resump¬ 
tion or speculative and export trade in wheat, luttu- 
• noocl hy tbe advanced prices abroad and contJdent. 
markets at the West. The rum »tnrms and floods. It 
Is believed, have done »o:nu little CHtuage, more 
particularly lu tbe winter wheat sections, aud tma 
lias led to some better Will on speculation for winter 
wheat stock; aside trom this exporters are In the 
inarxei favored by the position of toreigo market* 
and, a* they obtain freight room, pin-elmse prompt¬
