BATTLE.--;r11 he parish o f C rew h urst t h e po l es tits is most places I clothed with bine, and apparently in clined to branch very thickly, which gives to the grower a hope of success ; yet the bine looks something more dried, and the leaves less expanded than they were a fortnight back ; a warm shower would probably do then good. Amongst some young pieces, being the first year's poling, there were aphides, and one piece from which. sap was exuding, and forming slight honey-dew on the leaves, but nothing serious, the dry north-east wind being rather unfavourable. The general opinion of the growers in this neighbourhood is, that they are doing very well at present in the flat grounds, where it is cool and moist ; on the upward pieces:they are little:affected with insects. BECKLEY.—The hops in this and the neighbouring parishes are much infested with fly, but are in growing and thriving condition. Burtwasa.—Among the hops one race of insect is devouring another. The " niggers" are eating up the lice ; the fly has disappeared ; there is, however, more honey this week than last, and the appearance of the bine is in most gardens less healthy now than then. BRIGHTLING.—The hops in this parish, in some gardens, are much worse than they were a week back, and have some honey dew; while others are growing fast and looking very promising. FLETCHING.—The hops this week have made no pro gress, and generally they are much infested with vermin and honey-dew. Some of the gardens are look ing very bad. GARDNER-STREET.— Since my last the hops in this parish have undergone a change. In many gardens there is a considerable quantity of honey-dew fallen in the past week, and the appearances are not so favour able for a crop as they were ten days ago. H EATIIFIEED.—The past week has been a disastrous one to the hop-plant, and not only is it general in this locality, but wheresoever we gather intelligence from the like inauspicious cry is giren. The myriads of vermin (flea, fly, and lice) have been daily increasing, and continue to do so, while the honey-dew has literally begrimed most of the large leaves, on many of which in the hot afternoons it flows freely and drops ofE All these evils are rapidly progressing concomitantly with a continuous north-east wind, remarkably cold nights for the season, blue-misty mornings and hot afternoons, so that a more unpropitious combination of circumstances for the hcp-plant, which is daily getting of a blacker hue, can hardly be imagined, and unless a speedy change takes place, a general blight is foreboded by many. lloasmosonx.—Some plantations are very much honied, and the leaves are getting black, with an increase of lice, which are in a doubtful condition. In other parts of the parish that are comparatively clean, the bines are progressing satisfactorily. We are still of opinion that the crops will be partial. MAYFIELD, JULY 4.—The hops are not improved this last week, but in some instances in worse condition, being attacked with honey dew and covered with lice ; but we live in hopes of a favourable change, not forgetting what took place last year. NEWICK.— With the exception of two or three gardens, the hops have since the last account much gone off. Vermin and honey-dew exist to a great extent, indeed so much so, that it is the general opinion there can be but a very slight crop. NINFIELD, JULY 3.—The hops in this neighbourhood are growing, but are not free from vermin. We have at present but little honey-dew; fine weather for a week or two would very much assist them. ROTHFIELD..—FIy and vermin among the hops in this district are very partial; some are in an improving, others in a declining state. TUNBRIDGE.—Within the last three or four days the lice and honey-dew have increased in some grounds in this neighbourhood ; generally, the accounts are less fa vourable than last week. WADIIURST.—The hops in this district since the last report have experienced a decided change for the worse. The cold eastern winds that have prevailed for the last few days have checked their previous vigorous appear ance, and the honey-dew is visible in many grounds.-- Sussex Advertiser. ALARMING SPREAD OF FEVER AMONG THE LABOURERS ON THE CALE DONIAN RAILWAY. The amount of fever raging among the " navvies " engaged in forming the Caledonian line, is very great. It is of a very dangerous and fatal description—mostly black spotted typhus. A great number of deaths have cccurred recently. A few weeks ago there were six corpses, at one time, lying at Eccletechan. The num ber of burials in Crawford church-yard was becoming so great, that, fearing the place would be shortly filled, a piece of ground has been procured at Elvanfoot, in which a number of interments have taken place. It is a melancholy spectacle this spot, on the bank of the river, close by the bridge, along which the coach road goes. There they are placed in regu lar rows, much the same way as are the victims of cholera in the supplementary burying grounds. Fune rals there are taking place daily, and now upwards of twenty bodies are laid in it. The fever has assumed the most alarming aspect about the highest summit level ; and the contagion has spread to a considerable extent among the regular inhabitants of the district. There are very few who have not knowa the loss of one or more of their relations. One man, who keeps a small shop, had his wife, son, and daughter dead in one week ; and next week his sister, her husband, t heir son and daughter also died—all from fever caught by infection. The medical men attribute the extensive spread of the disease to the almost entire want of vege tables—the general food being of a dry, hard i Care. The appearances of the Nits in which many of tha " navvies" lodge would strike a stranger as being con ducive to disease—many of them arc built of wet turf, on a damp mossy soil, and taken possession of imme diately on being roofed in. The amount of disease otherwise, caused by irregular habits, is stated to be very considerable.—North British Mail. OVERWORK AMONG THE FARMERS.—Near Gains borough, Lincoln, and Louth, the labourers walk even longer distances than near Reading. I am informed of t Nye instances lve m m i les s where y th , ey or w se a v lk en a ty s -t f is a . r o a m s il s e ix sv.. m .ee il k e l s ;. th to at an is d , from their places of work. Let us consider the bare economy, the mere waste of labour, and what a state k,f agricultural management is indicated by the fact that such a waste can have taken place. Fifteen miles a day is the regular march of infantry soldiers, with two rest days—one on Monday and one on Thursday; twenty.four miles is a forced march. The man who expends eight miles per diem, or forty-eight miles per week, expends to the value of at least two days' hard labour per week, or one hundred in the year, uselessly, that might be expended usefully and remuneratively in production. How different is it in manufac tories, and in some of the mines, or at least in the best managed and most successful of them ! In some mines as much as 2,0001. and 3,0001. is paid for new machinery to benefit the labourers, . and save them the labour of ascending and descending by ladders. In many manu factories they have hoists to raise them and their loads from lower to upper rooms, to save them the labour of toiling up stairs, to economise their strength for piece work to mutual advantage. The Rev. Frederick Peel, of Gainsborough, informs me, "I have farms under my knowledge where the labourers, going to and fro, do not walk less than a hundred miles a week." The whole of this mileage, paid partly by the farmer and partly by the labourer, and in part, eventually by the owner him self, may be set down to the law of parochial settlement. —Mr. Chadwick's Speech at a Meeting of the Farmer's Club.

ANTWERP, JULY s.—ln the first six months of 1846, "040 ships arrived at Antwerp, the tonnage of which was 144,130 tons; in the first six months of this year we had 878 ships, with a tonnage of 143,431 tons. Thus there was 162 ships less, but only 699 tons less; there fore the ships which have arrived this year, have been superior in tonnage to those of 1846. Numbers of ships continue daily to arrive laden with corn, and every facility is given them to unload their cargoes, so that as little time as possible may be lost. ATTEMPT TO ROB A POSTMAN. A desperate attempt was made yesterday morning to rob the old postman, who has been in the habit of con veying the bankers' letters and parcels from the Post office in St. Martin's-le-Grand to Lombard-street. The following is the substance of the account of the attemit, given at some of the banking-houses : As Inspector Woodroffe, of the City police, was pass ing, at about five minutes after eight, along Wood street, Cheapside, he was informed by a man that there was a cry of murder in Mitre-court, a narrow passage between Wood-street and Milk-street. He immediately ran to the entrance of Mitre-court, the gate of which is locked every night at eleven o'clock and opened at six in the morning ; and finding that it was locked, he sus pected that there was foundation for the outcry, and dispatched one of the men round to the gate in Wood street. It was then ascertained that the postman in trusted with the transmission of the Lombard-street walk, and who was in the habit of passing through Mitre-court, had been attacked by three men in the narrowest part of the passage, that he had been struck by one of them with a life preserver on the head, and knocked down, and that the others endeavoured to drag away his bags from him, but without effect, as he roared out " mur der" in such a manner as to strike his assailants with the dread of detection. The thieves, who were, no doubt, what were called " family men," escaped. When they heard the strong lungs of the postman they ran to the Wood-street gate, and, being supplied with a skeleton key, they . pulled to the gate, locked it, and got away just before the inspector was informed of the alarm. _ The skeleton key and the .ie-preserver were found by the officer. The poor post man bled profusely from the head, but although the vio lence used against him was very great, he grasped his bags in the most determined manner, so that even those who went to his assistance could not have got them from him without great difficulty. It is conjectured that the plan had been laid for some time, and it was remarkable that the communications from the correspondents of the bankers happened to be unusually large yesterday morning. A COMEDY IN REAL LIFE.—The residents of the Sixth Avenue, near Thirty-second-street, were, on Wed nesday, treated to a very effective comedy by a couple of amateur performers, who went through their parts so well that it is generally believed they have had consider able practice in the same line. The main incidents of the piece are as follows :—A gentleman went home to his dinner, and, having suffered a trifling loss from a fall in the stocks, was disposed to make up for it by venting his disappointment upon the unoffending members of his family. This is a very old practice among married gentlemen, and wives ought by this time to be used with it, as lobsters are to be boiled alive. But the wife of this gentleman didn't exactly understand the mission ; and, when he remarked that there was too much pepper in the hot pie, and that the dinner generally was not fit for a hog, she replied that, if she bad known it was to be eaten by a hog, she would have made it fit for him. This, of course, led to a spirited reply; and the lady at last forgetting the humility so becoming in a wife, jumped up in a passion, and dashed her plate on the floor. "0, ho," exclaimed the husband, "if you are going to play thatligarffewir-will be up withlpour So he seized a tureen and smashed it against a crimson sofa. The lady, not to be outdone, upsets the table, and so smashes all the crockery at one blow, and then dares her husband to go on. To show that he was as full of spirit as his wife, the gentleman flings a water goblet at the French clock on the mantelpiece, over turns his wife upon the floor, and darts the chair on which he was sitting through the window into the street, and then tosses the mirror which hung in the room after it. Having finished the work of destruction in side, he cashed into the street, and began to demolish the chair and the remains of the mirror. While en gaged in this work, a body of M.P's., who had been sent for, made their appearance, and took the spirited gen tleman into custody. He asserted his right to destroy his property, and remonstrated with the M.P's. on their impertinent interference. The officers of the law ad mitted his right to destroy his property, but denied the lawfulness of his doing it in the street ; and for that offence they took him off to the station-house, where we lost sight of him, and remain in profound ignorance of the winding-up of the comedy. From the turbulent and unhappy conduct of this piece we see the wisdom of the old dramatists in ending their comedies with a marriage, instead of beginning their dramatic personages in that blessed condition.—New York Mirror. PROSPECTS OF THE HARVEST.—The weather has again become most propitious, and never did England appear more rich and beautiful than at this time. The crops of every kind and everywhere are most luxuriant, and we speak not as mere road-side spectators ; for we have gone with practical men and extensive farmers among the crops, and have heard and marked their opi nions of them ' • and they all agree that there never was a time when the harvest was more abundant. On Tues day we saw three pieces of wheat at Cooksbridge, near Lewes, belonging to Mr. Waters. The first was a piece of Talavera wheat, which was out in full ear; the straw strong and abundant; the ears as level as a bowling green, and every plant healthy and vigorous. Another and much larger field of red wheat was also very fine; the stems five feet high, and the ears level, full, well formed, and in bloom; but the third, and one of the finest pieces we ever saw, was a very large field not reckoned very good land, and which has been only brought into a good state of cultivation within a year or two by under draining and proper dressing. Here the stems were nearly six feet high; the ears very full, fine, and in full bloom, and with fine weather it will yield a most abundant return. Mr. Ellmann, at Landport, has also a capital field of barley, and another of wheat, lying together opposite his house. But go in what direction you may, the crops almost universally look well, except in some very poor land, or where the land has been too highly dressed: for land may be over as well as under manured. The beans, peas, oats (with some exceptions), and barleys, look as well as the wheats, and nowhere have we seen any indication of the disease in the potatoes.—Brighton Herald. LIVERPOOL ELECTION. The following handbill has been extensively cit.. culated : " ELECTORS OF LIVERPOOL. "In choosing yo ur re p resen t a ti ves , se le c t no man w h o will not pledge himself to a revision of of the money laws. " So long as raw material, labour, and skill are abun dant in the country, or can be readily obtained, if we possess a sufficient medium of exchange, we have the elements of everything that is wsnted in human exist ence ; but if any of these are deficient, merchants and traders are embarrassed, and workmen thrown out of employment. " Will you say we lack labour? Will you say we lack skill or industry? Do we lack the raw material neces sary for our clothing or building, or land on which to produce or procure food? If we lack none of these things, and, besides, a large portion of the world is eager for our productions, and anxious, upon fair terms, to exchange theirs for ours, what do we lack but money and common sense?—Not a contracted currency, which raises the price of food when it ought to be cheapest, and reduces the value of labour and of all manufactured articles, and fills the pockets of the drones of society and the bul lionists. Oh, no! " The Currency Bills of Sir Robert Peel have proved the curse of the country; therefore no candidate ought (for party reasons) to be supported who refuses to vote for a modification of the same. "Z." WISDOM OF THE EXCISE LAWS (Abridged from the Edinburgh News.) A highly respectable paper-manufacturer near Dover was lately subjected to one of those many annoy ances that the Excise-laws, as they now stand, unjustly warrant. In order that those unacquainted with the Excise-laws in regard to paper may understand the hardship of this case, it may be necessary to premise that the Excise duty on paper is levied by scale weight only, and that the Excise officers themselvq weigh the paper. It is a custom of the trade (introduced by stationers) to mark each ream of paper one pound heavier than the actual weight, and 10 per cent. on the actual weight is allowed by law for this " making up." A hundred reams were charged by the maker in question, and because it happened that these hundred reams, in the bulk, were a few ounces under the prescribed allow ance, they were instantly seized and carried off in triumph, the officer himself sitting on the paper in the waggon, as if some great fraud had been committed, instead of a trifling inaccuracy in computation on the part of some of the workpeople; and, be it observed, an error which, even if intentional, could neither be pro ductive of benefit to the manufacturer or loss to the revenue. Nevertheless, in addition to the loss of the paper, which was enough indeed, a highly-principled manufacturer, of thirty years' standing, had his hitherto high reputation injured by a cartload of seized paper being paraded through a populous neighbourhood to the residence of the supervisor, no one but those immediately concerned knowing the why or the where fore—the only construction that could be put on such an exhibition being, that an attempt at fraud had been detected. On sth November, 1842, a puncheon of spirits, in the act of being lowered into the 'Princess Royal' (a London steamer, lying at Granton and bound for London), slipped from the slings and was smasked to atoms at the bottom of the hold. The spirits con tained in it were of course dispersed over the whole vesr sel by the violence of the concussion, and thence run ning down amongst the bilge water, were utterly lost. This accident happened in the presence of many highly respectable witnesses, and one might have imagined that no duty would have been charged on spirits which had thus never gone into consumption. The distiller accord ingly petitioned for remission of the duty, but was in stantly refused; he then sought that, at all events, he should only be charged the Scotch duty of 3s 8d a gallon, since, if the spirits were held to be consumed, they were, at all events, consumed in Scotland. And what was the reply ? Why, this, that the distiller had intended these spirits for the London market, and that, therefore, to the London market they should go; or, at all events, that whether they went to the London market or not, the distiller should pay the duty upon them. Accordingly, the full English duty of 7s. 10d. per gallon was charged, and the distiller was forced to pay to the Crown the sum of 651. 13s, Id. for spirits which he had satisfactorily proved, by the oaths of the parties in charge of the vessel, had not, and never could have been consumed. The whole value of spirits, exclusive of duty, was 151. 9s. 6d., and this loss one might have supposed, was sufficiently heavy ; but no, the Excise duties, amounting to 651. 13s. Id., must be paid in addition, and the unfortunate .trader's loss was thereby increased upwards of four hundred per cent. by the exactions of the Excise. A seizure - as once made by a supervisor of about fitlialitle pattels of paper at a mill, because these were tied' up in wrappers without labels being pasted' ikon them. The Excise, at the time in question, did not low paper to be put up in less quantities than a ream, and the parcels referred to consisted of remnants of so many different kinds, ran mg from one sheet, or quire up to nineteen. They hadbeen tied up for no other purpose than that of keeping them clean and in good order. It only required the statement of this circumstance to the Board of Excise, to procure the restoration of the paper, though not without a good deal of trouble, and after some weeks' delay ; but, in the meanwhile, the trader had to endure all the odium consequent on the fact, proclaimed abroad, of a seizure having been made, without its being known that it proceeded from excess of zeal in a contemptible officer ; the manufacturer, besides, being greatly inconvenienced by the want of specimens of the papers which he had been previously making, in consequence of these rem nants having been carried away. This robbery was , even sanctioned by the letter of the law. On the Bth of August, 1844, an extensive fire happened at Leith Distillery, when among other things, a considerable quantity of spirits and wash was destroyed. One might suppose that so great a calamity overtaking anindivi dual would be loss sufficient; but no, the Excise must share with the devouring element in the amount of spoil —4151. ls. 4d., duty on 2,264 gallons of spirits, which the Excise assumed ought to have been produced, but which never were produced, was levied on the unfortu nate distiller! If a distiller in Campbelton wishes to export 20 puncheons of malt whisky to New York (and Brother Jonathan, be it known, loves a drop of moun tain-dew), the excise regulations in regard to it are somewhat amusing; for, if it be exported from Liver pool, the distiller pays Bd. a gallon more duty than if he export it from Glasgow or Greenock. Upon 20 .pun cheons, this would amount to about 100/., no trifling sum to pay for the privilege of exporting from the Mersey instead of from the Clyde. BARTHOLOMEW'S AND GUY'S CLUBS BOAT• _ RACE. This event, which has of late excited great interest in the aquatic circles, came off on Tuesday; but owing to an unforeseen occurrence, disappointed a great portion of the aquatic amateurs who had assembled to witness it. The distance was from Putney-bridge to Chiswick Eyot, and the Thames, Herne, Guy's, Bartholomew's, Thetis, Clothiers', and other boats were in attendance. Bartholomew's— Messrs. Girdleston (stroke) ; 3. Watson ; 2. Williams ; 1. Warwick ; Waship (steerer) 1 Guy's—Mr. Hewitt (stroke) ;3. Cooper; 2. Mathorpe; 1. Brinckly; P. Thompson. Mr. Chapman, of the Thames, officiated as umpire. A reasonably good start was succeeded by both parties veering from the course in which they should have rowed, the Guys too closely bugging the Middlesex shore, their station, and the Bartholomew's, on their part, steering too much towards the bight on the Surrey shore. In a few strokes they were almost level, the Bartholomews having the lead for about a foot; then the Guys began to draw in advance, and off Rose Bank had their length clear. It was a capital race all the way up to Hammersmith-bridge, the Bartholomews putting on some strong spurts, but the Guys! gaining at every stroke. At about 200 yards above Hammersmith bridge, at which time the Guys were leading by above three lengths, Mr. Mathorpe broke his thaul, and, of course, could row no longer ; the other three pulled away as well as they could, but the Bartholomews gra dually came up to their opponents, and jumped their boat in half a length ahead. ----------The crowd THE BOSJESMANS—EGYPTIAN HALL.--- exhibition of fashionables that yesterday honoured the we re greatly of tho Busjesmans with their presence , volunteered his amused by the appearance of the kindle singer, American Barlow, who r mance would his prfo services to see the effect A c cordingly., about he commenced have upon the Bush peopl:ith his banjo and celebrated Nigger four o'clock Mr. BarlOW, to p the Bosjestnans standing in blackened face ascend:ds, h one of his lively m.enl(,)._ating great surprise and satisfac elegant positions, 1 . ale latform, ation of the song Mr. Barlow made lion.

ACCIDENT TO THE SEA KlNG.—Yesterday morn ing, about 2 A.m.:, owing to the very dente f , g which prevailed, the steam , r Sea King went ashore on the smallest of the Copeland Islands, on her passage from Liv , rpool to this port. No blame whatever is attribut able to Captain Gowan, who was on deck at the time. The lead was going constantly, and the -vessel at slow speed, but the fog was so intense that no precaution was of avail, as a proof of which we may state, that even i after the ship struck, the land was invisible, though hut 1 fifteen or twenty yards distant. The passengers were 1 and all safely disembarked in the course of the morning, up to town by various conveyances.

After listening for a few minutes, the gentleman got up, and having drank a glass of water, was returning to bed, when he observed the window blind, which was drawn down, wave as if moved by a current of air. This drew his attention to the tact that the window was opened, though it had been shut, but not snibbed down, when he Went to bed. On farther examination he found that his pocket-book, which he had left on the toilet-table, had been rifled of its contents, and was lying outside on the window sill, and that some silver coin, together with a small gold seal, had also been abstracted ft rn the table; the ro'abery having seemingly been effected by opening the window and using a short hooked stick which was fr,und lying on the ground beneath the window.—Glas gow Argus. THE POTATO CROP.—We are sorry to state that there no longer exists a doubt that as far as regards the early potatoes, the same mysterious disease which committed such havoc the two last years has again made its appearance in this district (Kirkby Ire leth). We have not; heard of any well authenti cated case of its having yet attacked the morerrae: cently planted potatoes, though, of course, great apprehensions are reasonably entertained res p e them. This is the daik side of the picture. ~lhe bright one is, that the weather is most p:tiyll9, and there is every pro ability of an /arty and a 133 the blessing harvest. Should this fair prospect of Provid, oce, happily realised, the failure iY of the potato crop, should it occur, will not be productive of the same rnelancnoly consequences as it was last year. By reason of the high price of provisions , the labouring portion of the population of Kirkby Ireletb, many of whom receive but scanty wages, have had for some months back to endure much suffering, and it is only justice to say that they have done so with a patience and fortitude that do them credit. — ,{L an caster Guardian.
