Pp RBAP S at no period have the opera- 
~ tions of nature fo completely aided 
the induftry of the hifbandman as in 
the prefent feafon. A more abundant 
crop, and more favourable weather for 
getiing it in, has fcarce]y been remem- 
bered. Et is additionally fortunate for the 
public, that eur cultivators of the carth, 
tempted by the great prices of grain dur- 
ing the lati year, were induced to fow an 
unufually large proportion of their lands 
with wheat. Importations to’a very enor- 
mous, and even ruinous extent, have alfo 
taken place, which, with our own fuper- 
abundant produce, can fearcely fail to 
make Grain far more plentiful than it 
has been for many years. 
Such is the general Refult of a corref- 
_ pendence of the Conductors of the Month- 
ly Magazine through ‘nearly twenty dif- 
triéts ot Great Britain: the partiaular re- 
ports of fingle diftridts, it is believed, will 
mot corifiderably affe€t it. In all the fourh- 
-yern parts of the wland, the harveft is in 
general over, and the corn has never been 
-remembered’ to be got in fo quickly, and 
fo good and abundant, In Scotland, and 
in the Counties adjoining, the harveft is 
backward, and the profpeét by ao means 
fo good. ‘The deftruétive infeét, which 
occafioned fo confiderable a failure in lait 
year’s crop, and the blight, a difeafe which

“being very, produdtive, motwithfanding a 
greater breadth of :that crop never before” 
covered the country. The white wheats 
on moift lands have fuffered the moft; the

many fuperior properties in cultivation,
