The demand for new hope Is rather cautious, and prinol•
pally confined to the better descriptions, .1001 come to
hand more freely. Yearlings and olds continue quiet, and
...mewhat deprmsed In valve. From Essex and Kent the ac-
counts ore very eatisfactory. although In some plaees little
mould and at roan are prevalent In Worcestershire, also,
with the colitinumme of fine weather, the plant has made
considerable pr,greas, and on the whole the yield will sur-
pass expectation. *deices from New York show no I.
portant feature. The business doing is rather small, but as •
the crop Is looked upon somewhat despairingly, the few
samples.! 1871 growth command full prism.
