The Cagps aad the Raw. NEW YORK. We published an item the other day, ander the caption ofa “Premium Shovers,’’ im which an opimion was ex- Pressed that the recent rain would act mot beneficially oa the growing crop. Yesterday, a farmer from Rock. Jand county paid us a visit, and gave us to understand that, while be was pleaséd avd odified with the atyle of the item indicated, he doubted its truth. It appears ‘the heavy rains have produced injurious effects on the fields o€ wheat in all the covvsties in the neighborhood Of New Yori city, and, indeed, throughout tne whole of the Northers States. In the Northern States, the wheat aad rye have just been cut, and are nowin shocks in the field, undergoing the sweating process. The heavy rains have somewhat retarded this operstion, and much wheat is spoiled by the moisture. While, therefore, showers may be at a premium in the city, thoy are at ata dicount in the country, The following is frow the Albany Journal of the 26th inst — In this county we hear of bad results from the warm aod heavy rains. The wreat and rye, out and uacut, are more or leas ivjured by sprouting in the head, though not so badly as they are said to be West. Yeu. terday being pleasant, some farmers were able to get their grain heused. We have conversed wit man who spent yesterday in Genesee coant, wheat there, though soaked by tne rains, sprouted to’ any injurious extent. A apesimen which he brovgbt with him compares favorably with taose we have seex from other parts of the State. He thinks forty-tight hours of good weather would enable farmers to wafely gei in the crop, which {1 more valuable than wer ever harvested in the county. 2 throughout Wisconsiv, Ohio, Michigan and eet.

To Iuinois, Indiana, Ohio and the Southern States the wheat had already been harvested before those rains net Pn! sad is therefore safe. The yield is unusually abun- i ant, The following letors have been received by dealers in produce in this city:— i ke ct of a letter from Lyons, Wayne county, dated uly “From ail #e can learn we very mush fear thet the wheat you wil! receive from Wayne couaty will be con- siderably grown.

Nota kernel but what is sprouted. Uniess there is s change acon, we think the crop will be a total lors, yet we bope for better things. One thing is cer- taip, you will get no prime wheat from this part of the State this season,” Extract from a letter from Oswego, dated July 26:— “The preeent rainy and hot weather will use up the wheat crops in this State, Canada and most of Micbigaa if it continue much longer. Wisconsin will also suller badly from the same cause.’’ Rochester Democra. of the 27th says there has been much epeculation in the city as to the amount of damage which the recent protracted rainy weather hes done to the wheat crop in this section of the State, and fears wore generally entertained that the aggregate loss would be very great. But this prevalent apprehension neems, a0 far, to be without founjation, judging from apect of the at wheat selected from five different ide by Edw Jones, Esq., of this city. ‘These samples show that, though tne kernel of the wheat is awelled somewhat, the instances are very rare where a sprout is produced, hence we infer that da- age epprenecded is likely to be mainly imaginary. This whest of which we speak indicates an excellent growth, aod contains no mnces of the assaults of the maapy enemies of this important cereal. A correspondent writing from Rochester July 27, saya:—The rain of the past week hat greatly injured the iat which was cut as ‘ing. esting commenced in a ek past last Monday.

The wheat cut and shocked first,began to ‘‘grow’’ or “‘sprout,’’ and then that which was standing; amd up to last evening the weather continued as unfavorab'e as possible. During the night, however, it became cooler, with a little wind—just what was needed, except that there was not epough of it. This morning the sun rose in a clear aky, and there wes a gentle breeze. Although it is } warmer than could be desired, there is reason to ype the worst is passed, and that the mischief is not s0 general as was tnarrd I had an opportunity yesterday to go into a field, eighteen miles e.st of this, waich hed been cut and shocked eight days jously.

Few persons, from reading the above brief title of the work alluded to, would be able to forma clear idea of its chsracter and merits. The first part of it is devoted to au address un the origin and institutions of the Cymzy. It traces the foundation of the English common laws, including the trial by jury, with the division of the country {nto Cantrefs or hundreds, (corresponding to divisions iuto coun- ties) and the division of supreme government into executive, judicial, and legislative departments, (though couched in quaiut language, aud radely defined) to the ancient Britons, and gives his‘orical extracts, in support of the same. These lawa were said to have been translated into Latin by a noted Cambrian bishop Asser, (or azure) Muanevensis, who was invited to the court of Alfred the Great, and which were translated by the latter into Saxon, and msde common over all the Saxon Heptarchies under their monarch, hence called common laws. An attempt was made to crush out these lawa by William the Norman and his Continental followers, and to establish in their place the centralizing ecde of Justinian. Hence arose in opposition to the measure, the Common Law Schools ot London, known as the Inner Temple, (iray’s Ion, Lincoln's. int fields, &c., which sabsequontly triumphed. The remaining part of the address is devoted to the enumeration of those persons of Welsh origin or descent, who shared in our Ravolationary struggle, which embraced some sixteen or seventeen s'gners of the Declaration of Independence, viz.: —Thomas Jeffersou, author of the Declaration of Independence; Benjamin Harrison, chairman of the committee who reported it; Richard Henry Lee, who offored the regolution declaring the Colonies free from Great Britain; Heary Lightfoot Lee, Btephen Hopkins, of Rhode Island; William Williams, Samuel aud John Adams, William Floyd, Francis Lawis, and Lewis Morris. The latter three signed with Mr. Living. ston for the State of New York. Francis Lowia was a native of Wales; Robert Morris, of Pennayi- venia; Francis Hopkinson, Joha Morton, John Penn, Arthur Middleton, ButtonG minuets, (a tive of Wales,) while aeveral of the early Presidents were of Welsh descent. Among the military men of Welsh origin or de- eeent, who served in the patriot cause, were the fol- Jowing brigadier ard major generals :—Anthony Wayne, Isaac Shelby, Morgan Lewis, Wm. R. Da- vie, Edward Stephens, Charles Lee, Richard Wina, Daniel Morgan, John Cadwalladar, Andrew Lowia, Otho H. Williams, John Thomas, Joseph Williams, ond James Reese. Among the colonels were David Humphreys, Lambert Cadwalladar, Richard Howell, Ethan Alen, Henry Lee, Thomas Marshall (father to the Chief Justice), and James Wiliams. Cap- tain Maraball (late Chief Justice), Captaia Morris, and Dr. Morgan, the surgeon generals, &c. Brief biographical notices are given of the most prominent on the list. The notes4a the appendix, to which re- ferences are made in the address, abound in curious historical and ethvological infor a. Historical extracts are given to prove, and, to all appearance, beyond dispute, that Christianity was introduced into Britain A. D. 60, either by the preaching of St. Pal or some of hia immediate fol- lowers or disciples, and between 400 and 500 yeara before the Saxon invasion. The first Christian Kong in Earope was Lucius King of Britain, in A.

The absence of operators has rather @ favorable effect than otherwise, and serves to austain prices, There are gellers in the country as weil as holders, and the probability is that as soon aa tte heated term is over, and speculators return to the city, there will be more selling than boying—more stock thrown upon the market than itcan bear. Outsiders, wno purchased largely a few months eince, at iow prices, will be very likely to realize upon their return to town. I¢ they do not do so immediately, they will, without doubt, be compelled toas the reason advances and business increasea in activity. Kven in the event of money not being in more active demand for commercis parposes, holders of anprodactive st2cks will be induced to realize, from the utter imposslbility of inflatiag prices beyoud present pointy.

In other stocks the amount of businces tranaacted was limit- ed. There is no life im the market, and we see nothing in the future at all likely to revive it. When the recent speculation in the atock market commenced, prices ruled very low, and there was in most stocks @ wide margin for improvement. That margin has been covered, and those who were the largest operators are filled up with ail sorts of securities, productive and unproductive. The supply of buyers has long beea exhaus‘ed, and moat of those who were a tew weeks since buyera, are now, or soon will be, sellers. Very few of them have apy hope of realizing bigner prices. The largest holders would, no doubt, be giad to realize current rates, but aze afraid to put much cash stock in the market, knowing that it cannot stand it. The small holders have the advantage, as they can real- ize without the market feeling it much. After the adjournment of the board, the following les of bonds and etocks were made a} auction by A. H.
