It is true Indi promises a Egyptian lair average crop, and as for the crop, we merely refer to the following statement taken from the circular of Quentell. Kelly & Co., of Alexandria, issued 17Mi of October: -We regret to say our reports from the interior about the crop are less and less encouraging. suffered In many dis tricts the plaut has material !y from an over supply of water, by filtration, causing too much wood and too little iruit. In other districts where the Xiie has been dangerously high ior the past tv»*o months, the government prohibited tubmkments. the fellah* iroin fouci-ing tit;' t 1 .do as they were teen hum" to in Oi'IiJ er years, when the N ile was at a mod crate Slight, and hence the plant is s id to have suffered in other dis tricts from a want of water. The crops in the upper counties, from which we have received, about 50.0JJ cantars annually during the last few years, are said to be calculated all destroyed by inundation. It is that the overflow in Lower Egy) has de stroved about 15,1.'11)0 ean'ars. and a firth r decrcn ? of about L);).l )00 can tars irom night fogs is calculated.— the latter mud have injured consid erahly the quality as well as the qu uitity. Aiakiug every allowance tor exaggerated reports which one hears at this season of the yeas, we arc forced to the conclusion thaUthe crop is neither as good nor as large as la -t year’s.
