A gentleman who is on a tour of Irish Repeal
agitation in the United States writes letters to the Dublin Pilot, in the latest of which he says" The harvest is nearly carried throughout the United States. The crops are an average and a half, so that they will have much to spare from this country. New wheat is going into the mills in these parts, and also nearer to Philadelphia, at a dollar a bushel ; say 4s. 3d. English per sixty pounds." The New York Herald mentions the first arrest under the recent treaty, at New York ; Nathan 111.Kingey being seized on landing from Scotland, and lodged in prison on a charge of swindling. He will be delivered up.
