ih.it the root may uol reach i', nml consequent

with considerable success,) is. after Hu- ground

either with a spade, or, if there be grout.d e

the markets and the weather.
We, understand, tlie wheat in certain portions
of the State is not as utucli injured liy the seve
rity of tlie winter as was expected. Its loots
have been much leas exposed by the freezing
ami the spewing up of the earth, than was
apprehended. In many parts of the Slate
the win at is said to look well ; and though a
little nipped by flic cold, it promises a good liar
vesl.
f lour is not so brisk as it was some week- n
go. We observe the asking price nl Howard
stieel, Baltimore, is ^7 75—But a very encour
aging price is slill anticipated by the farmers
f. r their next crop of wneat. #1 25 cents
per bushel, we understand, has been offered
iu Petersburg, and in ihe niajmily of cates
declined. Tbe more languinu farmers look
out fur Jjfl 60; and they were unwilling to
contract tor a lower price-. Trtia prospect hat
inspned them with belli spirits and higher
hopes
Iobacco is decidedly looking up. The truth
it, 'ha* th * last crop was cut short—*ome esti
mate the reduction at .1 third and others at al
most a half. Mult ot the l i st tobacco it In ought
to market in M »y or June—and the plainer is
fla»tci mi: himself with the idea of a handsome
price. We have heard oira gentleman ay, that
eactdlent tobacco now would tiring $12 a hun
dred ; and he calculated turn the best wdl hung
in the spring not far from $‘20.
Tht pro* pec*-of good prices for these two
great staples of I he State, are calculated to ani
mate the agriculturists.
There are other c. it cu instances which will
have the effect of putltally relieving the fann
ing m erest from some 1 itm einbm ra-iments —
We itud*rsloltd, that a spirit of economy begins
to manifest itself 111 the country ; that the far
