METEOROLOGICAL TABLE, Kept at Edinburgh, in the Observatory, Caltonhill. N.B. The Observations are made twice every day, at nine o'clock forenoon and four o'clock afternoon. The second Observation, in the afternoon, in the first column, is taken by the Register Thermometer. FROM the middle to the end of May the medium temperature was about 50° Fahrenheit, and for the last thirteen days it was something more than 53. This temperature, for the season, cannot be reckoned high, and, from the abundant supply of moisture in the soil, and the general cloudy state of the atmosphere, vegetation is late, though luxuriant. The depth of rain since our last amounts to nearly 34 inches, and this liberal supply has proved beneficial to the growing crops on high and light dry lands. Barley seed was all got in by the end of May; what was sown early in the month has a most luxuriant appearance, and what was later has given a fair and promising braird. A considerable improvement has taken place in the appearance of all growing crops since the rains. Wheat has now a darker green foliage, but does not promise a heavy ear. Oats cover the ground well. Beans come in blossom on vigorous stems, but some complain of thinness of plant. The black mustard (sinapis nigra) seems more luxuriant than ordinary; and many fields of oats and beans, as well as spring-sown wheat, are quite overrun with that plant, which is now in full flower. Potatoes begin to appear above ground, but are a fortnight later than last year. Some fields of early potatoes, in the vicinity of great towns, are far advanced. Young sown grass has come up well every where. The hay crop promises well, and pastures are yielding a full bite. Cattle begin to improve in condition, but in price there has not been that advance which some reporters might lead to suppose. The price of grain has fluctuated a little since our last. It is to be regretted that the corn-market now partakes so much of the nature of stock-jobbing concerns. The same speculating spirit seems to pervade alike 'Change-Alley and Mark-Lane, and the effects are suddenly felt in the most remote corn-markets throughout the Island. Perthshire, 13th June.
