The average price of wheat in this kingdom having for some weeks excededthe maximum fixed by the corn bill, it is highly probable that, on the 15th of next month, our ports will be thrown open for the free import of foreign wheat; and in all likelihood, oats, having by that time attained more than the average price, will be also admit ted. it maybe hoped that the opening of the ports will produce beneficial results, not only in lowering the price of the staff of life, but hi assisting commerce, employing our shipping, and perhaps affording a vent for considera ble quantities of our manufactured goods.

In the Northern and Southern Counties of England, there are two distinct periods for harvesting wheat, so distinct, indeed, as to be nearly a month apart. In Devonshire, Dorsetshire, and other counties similarly situated, the beginning of .September, or at least the second week, is usually the conclusion of the tabor of harvest, and in or dinary years all the corn, we believe, of these counties, is generally stacked or in the barn by the I4th of that month. In Norfolk, Suffolk, and still more in the more northerly and eastern counties, the harvest is later by a fortnight, three weeks, or even a month. We believe they deem themselves fortunate in Northumberland and Cumberland, if they liave concluded their harvest by tlie first week in October. _ “Thus, therefore, there are two periods ofharvest, or if we connect them both, we mav say there are two months during some, oranv time of which, the harvest may be gotten up, and properly housed. Now we would wish to suggest this question, both to those w'ho are at present too busy in circulating alarms, and those who from over anxiety are too ready io adopting tliem. Bad as has-been the weather during the greater part of this perioif, has there been no short intervals, no bright and dry days during the last nine weeks, sufficient to enable the farmer to get in his harvest?.’ “With a very little interruption, *0 weather can have been more favorable than the last fourteen days. The beginning of September, if we remember it with suffi cient distinctness, was nearly a9 favorable as could have been desired, and though the latter, end of August re sembled an ordinafy May, xre are persuaded there were long intervals, and many whole days, during which the harvests ill the Southern Counties proceeded well.
