graphic Dispatches. which arrived yesterday. — What a field for politicians ! It is difficult to form conjectures on an event so extraordinary ! The most wise must wait—let us wait !!! What we foresaw has happened. The column which went out of Tarragona, under the orders Of Lloheras, has arrived at Lerida with an inten tion to relieve that place, and reinforce the gar rison, which is threatened ith a siege. The information received from Pampeluna speaks of the arrest of 200 persons. The sol diers of the Faith have been sent off in the direc tion of Logrono. CITY, Twelve o'clock.—Consols opened this morning at 83ii, and up to this hour 83-i f f, with little doing. The Expresses from Paris bring the French Rentes at 91f. 10c.; Spanish, 41. ; French Scrip, 21. The manner in which the French Telegraphic Dispatches are worded seems to puzzle every person, and another Express is anxiously looked for to explain the subject. FOREIGN MARKET.—Colombian and Spanish Bonds are the only Foreign Securities in which business is doing this morning. A file of Cape Town Gazettes has been re ceived at the New England Coffee-house, to the 20th July. The following is from the Paper of the 19th July:— " On the Bth inst. Mr. GEORGE THOMPSON ar rived in town from Old Lattakoo in the short space of 14 days, bringing with him the follow ing extraordinary intelligence :—Mr. Moffatt states the approach of a numerous, power ful, and ferocious army, described to come from the South. Having conquered and driven twenty-eight tribes, they were repulsed by the Wanketts, they intended to attack Old Lattakoo and Grigua Land. They are composed of white, black, and Hottentot colour, have rather long hair, and speak a strange language. Many wear European clothes; the most of them nearly naked. Their weapons are an ancient sword, a short hand spear, and a cudgel without a head ; they have their wives and children with them ; and, lastly, it is positively said they are Can nibals." HORRID MURDER. COLOGNE, SEPT. 22.—An individual accused of many murders has been arrested at Beul, a village on the right bank of the Rhine, opposite to Bonn. He has already confessed three murders, the recital of which is enough to make the mind shudder. The following is an account of the means by which these atrocious crimes were discovered. An inhabitant of Reid, named Moll, a shoemaker, and Henry Ochs, of Cologne, a tailor, had 'served together in the same company of the 28th Regiment, and were united in the closest bonds of friendship; they returned to their homes sifter some years of service, and resumed their former occu pations. Moll came frequently to visit his friend Oche, .)who was married at Colo,,ene. The young married folk always . r eceived and treated him with much affection. The J udicial authority took cognizance last year of the double disappearance of Moll's step-mother, twenty-eight years old, and of his own young brother : search was made after the persons, but in vain. Moll having g i ve n rise to some susp icions, was arrested; but for want of su ffi cient proofs was disc harged from arrest after a detention of some months, and resumed his connection with Ochs as before. The latter wishing to Make purchases at the fair of Putz. yen, not far from Beul, held on the Bth of September, set out on the 7th, having procured sixty Prussian crowns, in. f o rming his wife that 'he would take lodgings at the house of his friend Moll. After she had waited the return of her hus. band for eight days, she began to feel considerable a n xie ty , and sent a confidential person to make inquiries for him. This messenger arrived at Beul on the 18th, and saw Moll wear ing the clothes, and using the pipe of his friend Ochs ; struck with these signs he returned to Bonn, and communicated them to the officers of justice. The Judge instructor in. stantly dispatched the civil power, and having surrounded' Moll's residence, proceeded to , m ake a domiciliary visit.— They presently discovered some loose planks on the floor of the work-house ; on raising which they perceived the extre inities of mutilated bones sticking out from a hole filled with earth, like those in which peasants usually preserve their pota toes. They dugout three bodies in succession, the first of which was recoguized as that of the unfortunate Ochs. While the officers were busied in the work of exhumation, Moll escaped through the window, and baffled the vigilance of the Police with such caution that they were not able to retake him until about nine o'clock at night, whenhe was discovered in the middle of a field, in which he had lain down through exces sive fatigue. He was brought back to the Judges' OffiCe, "where he foetid before him the three bodies exposed to view ; at first he , wished to deny every thing, but the impressive and ingenious interrogations of the Judge, pressed him so closely, that he became confused and inconsistent in his answers,, end in the end the voice of conscience succeeded in wringing from him the horrible confession of his crimes. He then confessed, with floods of .tears, that 15 months ago he assassinated his step. Mother. He afterwards avowed that he assassinated his own bro. tiler, because he possessed' the power of revealing the former deeds; he moreover confessed themurder of his friend Ochs, which be committed on the night of the 7th of this month. An inquiry into many other murders is on foot, which also are attributed to this monster, and on which he still continues ro tundergo exam i n ations. 'M. Schiller, son to the celebrated pis em ployed in conducting the investigation of this affair. 21. We understand that the inhabitants of Beul, fired with detestation of the murderer Moll, assembled last Saturday, and destroyed his house, which was situated in an Isolated spot at the extremity of the village. After they had demolished it from roof to foundation, they collected the combustible mate rials, set them on fire, and scattered the ashes to the winds. This act of simultaneo us was i n dignation per followeformed ino n a mother o ment, and (we are h a ppy to learn) w d by excess.—Wensfitationnel qf Saturday.) WINDSOR, OCT. 7.---ThiS morning the Duchess of GLOUCESTER paid a visit to his MAJESTY from Baishot Park. Soon after one o'clock, the KING, accompanied by the Royal Duchess, left the Castle in a phaeton, to take a ride up . the Long Walk towards the Cottages—The military band attended at the Castle yesterday evening, by command of his MAJESTY. • yesterday morning an express arrived at the Foreign Office, Downing-street, with dispatches from Sir CIiAtILES STUAIIT, at Paris, stating that the King of SPAIN had been set at liberty wa s on his way to Madrid. The express came by the way of Boulogne. On Monday night Mr. BEGO, an Italian cou. Tier, arrived at the Foreign Office with dispatches from Sir Wat. IS:Covit.r, at Gibraltar. THE. THEATRES. DRURY.LANE.—The Comedy entitled A Trip to Scarborough, &Hold from Sir JOHN VAN.. Bauun's Relapse, or Virtue in Danger, was re• presented last night at this. Theatre, for the pur pose of introducing Mr.l3aowx, from the Liver pool Stage, in the part of Lord Foppinglon.— Liverpool has long been esteemed for theatrical judgment, and many good actors have been trans. ferred from that town to the London Stage. Mr. BROWN possesses talents which are calculated to support the credit of Liverpool in this respect, and to shew that its critical taste corresponds with its commercial reputation. His figure is well formed, his deportment is easy, his voice is clear, and his enuciation distinct. He has evi dently studied the character of the Foppingtons of a former period, a race now gone by, but which derive an animated restoration from the spirit of his performance. There was a sort of nonchalance in his acting which very successfully hit ofJ', if we may so express it, the unfeeling vanity and affectation of the character. We may therefore infer that the same critical perception which marked his performance last night will be equally conspicuous in any other characters that may be congenial with his talents. It has been observed in a Morning Paper that he constantly pronounced the letter oas a, as Tam for Torn, &c. &c., but this mode is studiously, kept up by VANnanuu, in the original play, and may be suppos'edlo have been the affectation of foppery during his period. It is well known that Grosvenor-square was for merly called Gravenor, and therefore, perhaps, the affected mode in question might be generally prevalent in the upper classes. Mr. BuowN ap peared to play with self-poiiession, but it is pro bable, that however well he performed the character, the consciousness that he had to risk a high and well-merited reputation before a Lon don audience might have prevented him from giving full scope to his powers. If that, how ever, was the case, the favourable reception which he experienced throughout his performance must dissipate all feelings of that kind, and we have no doubt of seeing him become one , of the chief comic supports of the London Stage. Miss S. BOOTH was warmly greeted by the audience on her entrance in Miss Hoyden, and the spirit, hu mour, and truth of her performance fully deserved all the applause that she received. Miss L. KELLY and Mrs. ORGER were fully adequate to the characters assigned to them. —We conceive that, though WALLACE( and PENLET were respectable in Young Fashion, and Loveless, they would both appear to more ad vantage if they were to exchange characters.— GATTIE'S Sir Tunbelly did not want humour or effect, and the comedy went off with spirit. Mr. &LISTON, in the humorous farce of The Three and the Deuce, kept the audience till the drop ping of the curtain, and gave the three Singles with appropriate distinctness and variety. COVENT.GARDEN.—Maid Marian, the musical drama which was so successful last season, was brought forward last night; and was supported with equal strength and humour. Mr. CHARLES KEMULE'S Friar Tuck, which placed his talents in a new light, has proved that they are not confined to tragedy and genteel life, but arc ca pable of broad humour and effective jollity. HATUARKET.—The Comedy of Every One has his Fault was represented last night for the benefit of Mrs. CuiirreaLev. This Comedy was written by the late Mrs. Lscuntt,n, whose name should never be mentioned without respect for her memory, on account of her moral qualities as well as for her dramatic talents. She was content to incur the imputation of avarice, and to submit to severe personal privations, in order to be en abled to afford a liberal provision to relatives less favoured by. Nature and by Fortune. The Comedy evinces her knowledge of life, her discrimination of character, and the occa sional sensibility and archness of her Muse. The performance throughout was tolerably well sustained, and Mrs. CHATTERLEY, in particular, was a very interesting representa tive of Lady Ellinor melodrama, entitled Rosalie, taken from the French, fol lowed, and the heroine was so well supported by Mrs. CHATTERLEY, that, as the piece is very affecting and highly interesting itself, it is to be regretted that it was not brought forward ear lier in the season.—The house was full. Extract from a letter, dated Lisbon, Sept. 22 —The ceremony of the Garter is now taking place (twelve o'clock). The Revenge, and the Active and Hussar frigates, are alongside off Belem-palace, dressed in all the colours of the rainbow, with flags from the royal mast heads to the bulls ; guns are tiring in all directions. It is said the King of Portugal has pretended a severe illness, to detain the English line of battle ships and frigates (having arrived here on the 7th) as long as possible, dreading dethronement from the enraged Constitutionalists. Last Sunday it was reported that the officers of four regiments were under arrest, and seven of them soon after wards escorted under guard to the desolate rocks, about 20 miles off, called the I3urlings. New officers were appointed by the King, and peace for a time restored. There are about seven Con stitutionalists to one Royalist here. The Duke of Yonic and Princess AUGUSTA dined with the Duke of SussEx on Monday at his apartments in the King's Palace, Kensington. —Princess SOPMA. visited Princess AUGUSTA yes terday. A weekly paper, of Sunday week, informed its readers, that three of the Learned Judges are about to retire, from ill health. It will be agreeable to the friends of one of these, Mr. Baron (JARROW, that, at least as far as concerns him, there is not any foundation for the report. Ile is at his favourite retirement at regwell Bay, surrounded by his children and their families, in apparently uninterrupted health. BOW•STRELT — (r ins nAy).—mary At4Canc ji was again put to the bar, charged with steeling a variety of articles, the property or Mrs. RICHARDSON, of Stamford-street, Blackfriars. road, by whom she bad been employed to wash and char. Mrs. It. was prevented by indisposi tion from attending, and the prisoner having re fused to say where the remainder of the property was, she was remanded until this day week. ! ~ ,r.),;4) 4zcie-, C evo..

LIVERPOOL GRAND MUSICAL FESTIVAL.—The inha bitants of Liverpool have been recently much gratified by a Grand Musical Festival, comprehending five morning perform. ances, and two evening concerts, with the additional attractions of three balls, one of them a fancy-dress ball. The morning per formances were very numerously anti respectably attended. per formances evening concerts attracted a large assemblage of rank and fashion, and the conductors have every reason to be satisfied with thesuccess of their undertaking, as we have been informed that the receipts for these two Concerts alone amounted to 2,9001. So satisfactory a result might have been easily anticipated, as the Concert bills displayed a brilliant assemblage of talents, comprehending the names of Mrs. Salmon, Misses Stephens and Goodall, Brabant, Philli . ps, and Vaughan, with the powerful co-operation of De Begnts and his charming wife. The two latter were particularly well received, and their efforts on this occasion fully justified the plaudits which were bestowed on them. De Begnis, in the air " Amor perche sni piraichi," for the rapid utterance of which he was so celebrated in London, was highly applauded, and also in various duets with Madame Ronzi, who has greatly fascinated the good people of Liverpool with her charming per son and her musical skill. We have not room to add more, than that the whole was admirably conducted, and was attended with the success commensurate to its merits._ Lir..auftw TOWEIL—In consequence of Mr. Collin wood's eldest son coming of 'age, a superb gala was given at 14ilburn Tower on Monday, the 22d of September. A large ox, weigh ing upwards of 100 stone, was roasted entire for the occasion, and early in the afternoon the young heir commenced the carv ing. . With proper assistance it was cut into pieces, and distri buted among an immense number of poor people and labourers, who had flocked from all quarters to witness this very splendid spectacle. Ale was liberally given to all dtiring the whole course of the day, part of which had been brewed for the occa sion twenty-one years. ago. A large party within doors sat down to a most plentiful, feast of turtle,,venison, and all the delicacies of the season. The health of Alr. Collingwood, his son, and the other, members of the family, were toasted with enthusiastic hums, while the music of a military band, and the firing of cannon, contributed to heighten the effect of this very imposing scene. Fire-works in the evening, of great bril liancy and beauty, closed the. day. The village of tit ooler was very generally illuminated, though it was remarked that all the effective population was more attractively employed at the Tower. On the 23d a splendid entertainment was given to the numerous tenantry of ,tie estate ; and on the '24th the troop, commanded by Henry Collingwood, jun. Esq., dined with their Captain. On both occasions the dinner • was at Lil burn Tower, and distinguished by the same warm enthu siasni which' characterised the gala of the preceding day.--- A large party of the respectable tenants and gentlemen from both sides of the Tweed also met on Monday at Cornhill, to celebrate the birth-day of Mr. Collingwood's eldest son, and after dinner they came out in front of the house, where a plen tiful supply of bread and ale had been ordered to be distri buted, and drank the toasts of the day;' while the loud and repeated cheers of the populace contributed to heighten the general interest and effeet.--On the same occasion, Miss Mills, of Clanton, gave an excellent dinner of roast beef and plum pudding to 160 of the poor inhabitants of the village, with a plentiful supply of ale, to drink health and prosperity to the young heir of Lilburn Tower. BROM/STAIRS, Ocr. 6.—A very elegant Ball was given at Barfleld's Library, on the Marine Parade,' on Friday evening, which was attended by nearly a hundred f a shionables. Lieut.

Alra• Coutts is at Paris's Hotel, occupying almost the whole of that extensive house. MARGATE, Ocr. 6.—The sea bathing is become very plea sant since the change of weather t every machine is in constant use from seven ito the afternoon. The promenade is on the Pier and the Eastern Cliff. At noon the gay parti-coloured vehicles are arranged in line from the Duke's Ilead Inn to the Market-place. 14 rom two to five the town is deserted.

The Alarquis Wellesley gave a splendid entertainment at the Phoenix Park, Dublin, on the Ist of this month, anti another on the day following. It is almost unnecessary to add, that the banquet on these days not only presented every air of magnifi cence, but every festive and joyous combination characteristic of refined taste and elegant hospitality.

Now welcome Autumn's yellow leaf, Ye hollow gales of Autumn blow ; 'Tis yours to calm the bosom's grief, And sympathetic peace bestow. Bid me redeem life's wasted morn, For Winter's bitter blasts are nigh ; And soon from earthly objects torn, This flame in kindred dust shall lie. To Him then prostrate let me bow, To Him whose arm is strong to save; 'Who can eternal Spring bestow, That Spring which blooms beyond the grave. MR. HAMILTON'S NEW MODE OF TEACHING LANGUAGES. All further commendation on our part, of this valuable discovery, is rendered quite unneces sary by the subjoined testimonials. The visitors who attended the exainiiiation of his French class last night, it is proper to observe, were strangers to Mr. 11.t.mt urox ; and all his Pupils have been obtained 'solely by his Lectures in .„ public. Indeed, Mr. 11AMILTON is himself an entire stranger in England, having arrived here from America not more than three months ago : We, the undersigned, having attended at Mr. Hamilton's apartments, No. fi, Adam -street, Adelphi, on Tuesday even ing, the 7th of October, witnessed with much interest the examination of a French Class of fifteen Gentlemen who stated that they bad received ten Lessons from Mr. Hamilton. The Members of this Class were examined in various parts of the Gospel of St. John, and were sometimes requird to take the verse backwards, and to give the literal translation of each verse. They executed their task with surprising facility and accuracy. We therefore conceive that Mr. Hamilton has thus far fully redeemed his pledge, and that his system possesses decided advantages for the acguisition of languages. Indeed we bad no idea that it was possible by any method to acquire so great a knowledge of any language in ten lessons. Signed on the part of the Visitors, 111 , 1tDMAN A M and M.D. _ . We, the undersigned Pupils of Mr. HaMilton, have no hasi. cation in declaring our entire satisfaction with the manner in which he has fulfilled his engagement in Witching us the first section of his course of French. (Here follow the signatures of every individual of the Clas, which, with their addresses, will be communicated by Mr. Hamilton to every inquirer.] SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

A sporting race amongst the Essex Gentry took place yester.i day from the Waggon House . , adjoining Epping Forest, be. tween a bay Galloway, belongin g to Mr. Ordhain, of Bowlees, and Mr. li odgkinson's Minister, neither reaching 14 hands. The match was to trot ten miles against time over a two-mile piece of turf and road, and to carry list. each. Mr. Ordham'a horse performed the task in 39 minutes and ten seconds ; Mr. frodskinson's horse in 40 minutes and 43 seconds. SHOOTING MATCH: A match was made at the Tun Taverni'on Monday, after Tattersall's, at dinner, for Captain Hooker, of Sloane-square, to shoot against Mr. Robert'llenniker, as reputed good shots, who should kill most head of game in eight hours, and to com mence operations within six miles of London, each to be ac companied by the friend of his opponent. Mr:Moniker com menced operations in Streatham parish, !bond plenty of part, ridges, and beat towards Reigate. He killed seven brace of birds, two brace of pheasants, a leish of hares, and two leverets, making twenty-three in twenty-eight shots. The Captain was less fortunate. He started from Ealing parish, beat towards and skirted Osterly Park, with bad omen, for the first hour. He fell in with some pheasants around the park, and crossed the Uxbridge road, at Hayes, and continued his course to Hol lingdonincrosures. He had twenty-five shots. and killed nine partridges, eleven pheasants, and one hare, losing the match by two. INTEgESTING FOX CHASE. On the forenoon of Saturday the 20th ult., a very singular occurrence took place in the King's-park. A fox, which had been started in the south, entered 'and traversed the Marquis of Abercorn's parks, from whence he made his way, by the south side of Duddingstone Loch, into the King's-park, fol. lowed by the hounds, and by Gentlemen and Ladies, and others engaged in the chace, as speedily as the various and circuitous routes they were obliged to take would permit. When all were assembled in the Park, they presented a most uncommon and beautiful picture; dogs and riders sometimes at full speed over the few level spaces ; and then cautiously stepping among the rocks, and over the summits of the bold high grounds—sometimes alighting and carefully descending their steep sides. At one time, the hounds seemed not to be aware of a precipice before them, over which it was feared, in their eager pursuit, they would have been lost, but they turned short and escaped the danger. When all came in sight of the village of Duddirigstone the scene was beyond description beautiful—dogs, huntsmen, Ladies and Gentlemen in scarlet uniforms, in the most pleasing groups, all over the picturesque scene which that side of the King's-park at all times presents to the eye—while the echo of the horns, dogs, horses, and the voices of the riders awakened a perfect contrast to the usual every day stillness and solemnity of that region of comparative solitude and silence. Iteynard found shelter in some retreat of the rocks, where he could not be found, when the whole hunt proceeded southwards towards Libberton ; and the usual silence and solitude of the hills and glens of the Royal Park were restored, the sheep rested in peace, and nothing was heard but the whispers of the passing breeze.--(Edinburgh Star.) ROWING MATCH. Yesterday a bet of 60!. was contested for between Mr. Brad shaw and Air. West, both of Pimlico, and Gentlemen ama 7 teurs of aquatic sports They started from Westminster Bridge at one o'clock, preceded by two eight oared cutters, in which were their respective friends and umpires, to the farm-house above Battersea Bridge, whiCh heat was to de cide the contest, according to agreement. The struggle was excessive, neither could get a-head till they passed the College, when West gained a partial distance, owing to a craft which Bradshaw came too close to, and could not avoid. Both kept doSe to the shore, and ultimately it proVed advantageous to West; he kept the lead all the way, but was very closely set upon by Bradshaw. , Having arriv e d a t th e i r destination, a party of frienda, who were upon the bank wait ing the result, hailed him with loud shouts; and the boats which were out having raised their oars, the clattering and clashing of which, and voices, alarmed several of the inhabit ants who were ignorant of the cause. West having come in first, was handed out by his friends in triumph. :MURDER OF MR. FRANKS AND FAMILY.--ID our last we stated that the men who were charged with the late attroeious murder had not been transmitted to the County Ciaol. —To this we are now enabled to add, that the servant girl and another female have been sent to Dublin, with the intention, it is said, of their being examined before the Privy Council. in the .metropolis they certainly will be personally more secure, and cannot be tampered with by the friends of the accused. The persons charged with the murder still remain in the bridewell at Doncraile.--( Cork Advertiser.) LUKE WHITE, Esq.

WEYMOUTH, OCT. 4.—llis Majesty's Government, con formably to the general system of economy which they have adopted, have resolved on pulling down' the temporary Ca valry Barracks at Radipole, near this town. -The troops of the 14th Regiment, pow stationed there, under the present command of Major Mulles, will in consequence march for Dorchester on Tuesday next, and occupy the permanent ones in that town. This morning, previous to their depar. ture, Major Milles, and the Officers of that diStinguished Regiment, gave a &Jenne a la fitarchette, to Lady Baker, the honourable Colonel and Misses Brown, and a select party of fashionables.—At twelve o'clock they arrived in the barrack_ yard ; the morning being delightful, they walked on the parade, and were first conducted by the officers to the Regimental School for the education of the soldiers' children, and heard them recite and read different passages of Scripture, &c. and were well pleased with their proficiency, reflecting great credit on theirmilitary tutor. After-which, this respectable assem. blage repaired to the Riding School, to witness the new me thod of riding, as established by Lieutenant-Colonel Pe tars, Riding -master General. They were highly gratified with the precision and dexterity with which the sword and lance ex ercise was performed by the ,Light Horsemen.

SVONEY, APRIL 3.—Captain EDWARDSON, of the Snapper, brings from New Zealand two Chiefs, one of whom is accompanied by his wife. One of them is a youth of about 16, and the other is 30 years old. The name of the latter is Jas. Caddel, an Englishman by birth, and whose history Is briefly as follows :—ln 1807, or thereabouts, the ship Sydney Cove. a sealer, out of this port, was cruizing off the Bny of islands, and had either stationed or dispatched a boat's crew, consisting of five hands, and a boy (James Caddel, the present chief), to one of the islands, in quest of seals. The boat was taken by the savages in the vicinity of the Southern Cave, and the hapless men, with the exception of Caddel, were killed and eaten. Fortunately, in his (light, the boy flew to wn old chief for mercy, and hap pened to touch his ka-hali•hore (the outward mat of the chief), and thus his life became pre served, as his person was then held sacred.-- Being in too distant a part of New Zealand to indulge the hope of hastily escaping from a wretched captivity, Caddel became resigned to his apparent destiny, and insensibly adopted the manners and customs of the natives. About nine years since he was allied to a Chief's daughter, who also is sister to a Chief : and, by this two-fold tie, he became a Prince of no small influence among such sybjects as those barbarous despots are destined in the present constitution of things to have the control of. Caddel lost his own language, as well as European customs, thud soon became transformed from the English sailor boy into the dauntless and terrifying New Zen. land Chief. It required some argumentation to induce him to visit New South Wales ; and ho would not have come without his partner, to whom he appears to be tenderly attached. CORN EXCHANGE, OCT. O. The arrivals to this day's market are not considerable. N: - :t having many good dry samples of %neat for side, such di.- scriptions are - held by the Factors at rather more moniT, but there is very little trade to-day ; Barley continues very dull ; Deans and Peas have no alteration; the Oat trade remains i 4 much the same state as on 11Ionday with a tolerable good sale for prime samples. HOP INTELLIOENCE SOUTHWARK, OCT. 0.-411 U Nop trade is very dull for either old or new. the prices of the latter are as under. The duty . is doing at 20,000/.—Kent Pockets, 0/. ilb. to 13/..13a. ; very fine, 141.-.-Sussex Pockets, fit, to 121. 12s. ; very fine, 12/. MAIDSTONE, Ocr. 6.—The picking is now nearly or quite finished in this neighbourhood, and we have not heard of' a single instance where the crop has exceeded expsetation, but Oil the contrary, fallen very short of what was autte4pated. do not believe there has been a hop sold in our maiket yet, nor, have we seen any samples exhibited. The general opinion is that the duty will not pay 20,000/. CANTERBURY, OCT. IL—There was considerable life in the Hop Market on Saturday, the bidders increased their °fills, but not enough to tempt the greater number of the planters to sell—about 400 Pockets were sold, the prices front 15/. to 171., some of the prime samples stick out for 20/. FARNHAM—The planters in this neighbourhood and Alton. are much disappointed in their crops, bad as they knew them to be ; yet what few hops they had, owing to the blackness of the bine, and the hops being of a good colour, showed to such an advantage, that many of the planters calculated their Crops at double what they prove to be since picking. Better prices are consequently expected at Fair. EAST RETFORD, Scrr. 25.—The Bop picking in this neighbourhood commenced in the early . part of last week, anti such is the smallness of the crop, that it is now completed' in nearly every plantation. A more destructive blight and a less abundant produce has not been known for 'luny years. The plantations which are the most productive, do . not average 14 pounds to the acre, whilst those in the parish of Maley do UOT exceed inure than a single pound to the acre. The opinion of naval men is saki to be de cidedly against the use of coal-tar, which has of late been introduced into the timbers and planks of ships as a specific for the dry rot. It is under stood to have proved injurious to the health of the men, especially in tropical climates.---(rotts mouth Paper.)
