[Sept. 1/ 
promising crops. Of the hops, accounts 
vary so much, that they deserve little at¬ 
tention ; the fairest presumption may be, 
that the crop will be full as large as at pre¬ 
sent estimated. Livestock of every kind 
continues in the utmost plenty, every 
where fully equalling the demand at most 
reasonable and still declining prices. Wool 
Very dull of sale in some parts, in others 
mending; notwithstanding, a fine sample 
from Van Dieman’s Land has lately fetched 
the extraordinary price of 10 s. 4 d. per lb., 
a price greatly beyond the best Saxon or 
Spanish, and a most encouraging specimen 
of production from that most thriving and 
promising colony. The depression among 
the tenantry is at no rate mitigated by the 
prospect of the wheat crop; and some over¬ 
anxious speculators go so far, as to augur 
an iuundation of foreign com in the ensu¬ 
ing year; an apprehension for which, at 
present, we can discover very little 
grounds, even should the crop on the 
ground fall considerably below an average. 
The cultivators on the continent are under 
a similar depression with our own, and 
prices sinking daily .Their crops have also 
been affected in a similar manner by at¬ 
mospheric vicissitudes. The beautiful 
weather which we haye had for some time 
past, will prove immensely beneficial to 
the country.
