Until to-day very little business has been done in the Hop-fair; and even to-day not a great deal. The price cannot as yet be very well ascertained; but we may Yen tore to say, that Hops f 0 perfectly fine and good have been sold for prices so low for these thirty years past. The quantity, indeed, is very great; but the girt lity is deemed to be the very hest within the memory of man, and yet it is not expected that they will sf:11 upon an average at much more than sic pounds the hundred weight for the very beat Fartzlisin Hops. Itlr. Put. is the principal personage at this great fair. Indeed, not to speak irreverently, he is omnipresent and omnipo tent in all peenniary affairs. The poor ewes and lambs. fifty thousand of which, are said to have been drives; un sold out of a hundred and fifty thousand, have to thank him for once more rem rning to their homes. The cheese, the leather, the hops, the horses ; in short, every thing feels the effect of Lis all-powerful influence. .Lewes, OcT. 14.—Oar beast market, ens Tuesday.

The day being line drew many fashionable visitors to the fair place ' • and in the evening it was, as usual, thronged with sturdy lads aid blooming lassies from die atirrouud• ing villages. Sainting fair, on the same day, was full, of horned rattle; a larger show was never remembered; but the slaelteess of demand, an,i the depressioe of prices were strongly depicted in the long phirzes of the Welch and Devon drovers. In short very little business was trans. acted. Bt Derby cheese fair, on Saturday sennight, the de. mind was much greater than expected. and prices con siderably higher. Prime plain dairies fetched in gene ral 465. second quality, 435. to 44e. inferior, 42. co loured, 455. to 50s.—and Is. to 2i. per cwt. mere was given for one or two particular dairies.

Blend milk fetched front 29.1. to 32s.—The shew of cattle was very small, and scarcely any sales effected ; many graziers that heal broaght cattle and sheep for sale, were reluctantly coma riled to drive them home again. Pigs were offered sad sold ct a mere trifle fur this season of the year. Verj few onions; they sold readily at 2e. 3,1. and 2s. 6d. per peck. At Ponty-pool fair on Thursday last, the prices of livestock in general suffered still farther reduction.— Cheese sold considerably lower. Prime bill sheep (ewes) which three years ago sold for 13s. and 13s. a piece, were bought for 7s. 6.1. But little business was done in any terms, and consequentiy but little provision made against the approaching real-day.
