TIE London correspondent of the
New York :Tribune, in his despatch to
that paper, says that the Hon, Mr.
Abbott's mission to Australia is con-
sidered there as of some importance.
His primary object is, to press the
claims of Vancouver 'as against San
Francisco as the terminus of the new
trans -Pacific steamsbipeente. Canada
has already promised 4100,000 for au
eighteen knot service between Eng-
'tile crop has been very good; on low
fields it was injured by the heavy
rains of the early summer menthe ;
and generally the pea is a little
shrivelled. The most unfavorable
moults are received from the eastern
section of the province, where the
rains continued to. a Inter period than
in the western seotion, Shill the
;yield per aore is only 1.4 bushel less
than the average of the past seven
years, and the aggregate is greater
than the average of those years by
l half a million bushels --the area in
crop being greater ay 74,000 acres.
Corn is still unpromising. The
heavy rains at the ,planting season
caused touch of the seed to rat in the
ground, and in many cases fields had
to be replanted two or three times,
As a consequence the crop got a very
late start, and being overtaken by the
drought of August it has had a
struggle for life. In some sections
it has already been cut and cured for
fodder, and the total estimate is less
than one*half of the crop of last
year.
Buckwheat has also suffered from
the weather, and some correspondentes
state that it was hurt ie the blossom=
stage, by the sun's heat. In tee east -
era counties it has matured well, 'and
the yield per acre is aver the average.
'The planting season fpr beans was,
unfavorable, and the drouth arrested
the growth at, an early stage ; but
although the crop is l-gbt. the . sample
is expellent. The yield per acre is
three bushels less than last year, but
the aggregate is nearly equal, to the
average of the past seven years.
The root crops have been widely
affected by extremes of moisture and
dreuth, and the present promise is
not hopeful. Seed potatoes rotted
extensively and many fields were re-
planted. Growth in August was
arrested by the drouth, and, except-
ing in portions of Huron, Bruce and
Grey, which were favored with more
rain than elsewhere, the tubers are
"small and few in a hill" throughout
the western half of the erevince.
The rot is reported from one or two

concerning the various grain yields:
The July estimate of fall wheat is.
Mow lowered by nearly 7 bushels per
acre, fir an aggregate of 5,600,000
Bushels, and the grain is of a very.
ordinary emote. Spring wheat was
less affected and the .quality of the
grain is finer, but the estimate has
'been redeteed by nearly 4 bushels per
acre. The total yield of Wheat as
now estimated, is 19,772,081 bushels,
being 7,000,000 bushels less than the
promise of the crop ,on the 20,th July,
€00,000 bushels less than Lest year,
and 8,250;0.00 bushels less than the
ti„verage of the seven years. 1881-8.. •
