Lexpon, August 10.—A despatch to the Times from Vienna says that the unfavor- able harvest prospects in Austria-Hungary which have been aggravated by the floods, have caused a rapid rise in the price of cereals, which are now standing higher than any figure they have reached for many years. This is especially the case with wheat, which was freely offered months ago, for autumn delivery, at six florins per cental. Itisnow purchased at eleven. With a view of allaying anxiety, the Hun- garian Ministry of Agriculture has issued @ report to the effect that the condition of crops is less untavorable than was sup- posed. The total wheat yield is com puied at 27,000,000 metric centals. This, how- ever, is far below the average, and will leave almost no margin for exports, whereas Hungary usually exports 12,000,- 000 bushels.
