August 0.—I owe you un apology for my

two weeks I havo been confined to my
room unable to discharge my duly to your
self and readers, or any ouo else. Noth

ness of every kind is at n perfect 6tuud-

amount of supplies at staled and regular
.periods by our merchants to tho'? country
customers. When will our farmers stop
buying what they should produce at homo
in sufficient quantities for homo-consump
tion, and even to sell ? They will never
have any prosperity until they do.
The crops nre still believed to bo good,
but what effect the recent rains have had
upon then! wo do not know, i'ho showers

and we very much fear that the next com

all, and I urn content to leave tho matter
