Till HOP TRIMS.

The following in relation to the hop trade is
from the trade circular of Messrs. Woolloton and Son:
The 15th September, 1862. dates the freedom of English
hope from excise import, and the abolition of customs
duties upon foreign hops. Time alone can show the effect
so serious • change will have on the average prices of •
produce of increasing importance throughout the world.
Our opinion is, that under perfect freedom of trade hops
will vary in price in each district of production, only in pro-
portion to their quality and the cost of transport ; sod that
consumer" will find prices more uniformly even than has
hitherto been known, since the simultaneous failure in the
crop at home and abroad is beyond the range of probabi-
lity. With regard to the present season we 'remark, that
the unfavourable weather of part of the summer has had
its influence upon the English crop. From the Worcester
district but • very small produce will be received, and
scarcely any fine quality. Many of the beet Mid Kent
sad • few Feet Kent parishes have been much affected with
mould and red rest. The Farnham crop is but moderate ;
the Country Farnham', Weald of Kent, and Sussex
plantation.. produce • very large crop of fine quality.
On the continent of Europe the result is very variable.
Bohemia and Bavaria do not grow so many hops as last year,
but the quality of their crop is most superior. This circum-
stance will tend to compensate for the injury which has
affected some of our best parishes at home. The other
districts of Germany have a very large produce. but it is, es
usual. deficient is flavour and strength. It is within the
experience of some brewers to have bought these hops at
low prices, under the name of Bavarians, and when too late
to have diecovered the difference. From the eastern pro-
vinces of France, where the crop is very large, we shall rr
oeive considerable coosignments, of exquisite flavour and
condition, cultivated and cored with extreme care. The
Belgian crop is not so abundant as last year. bat there will
he no lack of samples of beautiful colour and condition. A
few plantations are attacked with mould, • malady hitherto
unknown in that country. The American crop is large. and
the circumstances of that country will lead to important
consignments to England. In no single district of produc-
tion is there a total failure, and in by far the largest pro-
portion of plantations at home and slimed the crop is abun-
dant. In out judgment, therefore, the prices asked for
new hops are not at present 'efficiently reasonable to induce
brewers to go largely into stock. In addition to
large importations of foreign hops, which will in-
evitably take place, the fact mart not he over-
looked that the home consumption in the manufacturing
districts has been for twelve months seriously diminished in
consequence of the lamentable war in North America. '
While, therefore, we think all really choice hops will find
buyers at prices amply remunerative to the growers, we
are convinced that, mindful of the experience of lent year,
consumers will only purchase for immedi►te necessities
until they have fully ascertained the effect of the altered
system whereby hops from every district of production
will find their way to the English market free of ditty.
From Demons' inspection, we can state that there is
• greatly increased area of bind under bop cultivatioe
on the continent. and we can add that capital and intel-
ligence are being brought to bear in every possible manner.
in order to produce and cure their crop on the most approved

ANOTHER FIRE IN LILISBETH.—(THIS DAY. )
This filinreday) morning at an early hour a fire, which
greatly jeopardised the liven of the inmates, happened in
the premiere belonging to Mr. A. Pim, • beerehop-keeper,
situate at No. 5, Short-street. New-cot. The inmates were
unable to descend by the staircase. and Mr. Piro, to avoid
being suffocated, jumped netnlerindow,fortunately =staining
on personal injury. The Royal Society's escape promptly
attended, and the conductor of the Blackfriars.read station
happily =weeded in bringing down in safety four of the
'lodgers sleepier in the upper room.. The lower part of the
premises is needy destroyed, and the wiper part severely
damaged. The proprietor was insured in the Son Fire.
office. Another fire took place on the premises of Mr.
Ellis, oil and coloormen, 31, Union-street. Borough ; but
owing to the timely aid afforded very little damage was
done. Th. outbreak wee caused from • boy upsetting a lamp
in the oel'ar amonipteome resin hags.
LAMBETH REGInTRATION COURT.--(THI8 DAT).—
Mr. Richard Ogle. the barrister appointed to revise the
electoral lista of the constituency of the borough of Lam-
beth. commenced and concluded his duties at the
Session Rouse, St. Mary. Newington, this fore-
noon. There being on political opposition the pro-
ceedinp were characterised alike by dulness and de-
spatch. The result was that fourteen names were adder to
the constitueory—namely, eight from the parish of Lembeth
and six from Newington. The Camberwell Vet remained
in point of number. se before. The revision occupied
barely an hour and a half.
A NEw Paorntinto POWER. —On the Scheldt,
near Antwerp, experiment. have been made with • river-
boat provided with • new propelling power which has been
recently discovered. The boat hen neither paddle wheels
nor screw. In the middle of it, however, is a wee shaped
kettle into which the water is pumped up, and from which
it is driven out with great foroe into the river',
through two curved boxes on the side of the boat, by
which means the vessel is propelled forward with
great swiftness. By simple machinery the arrangemeete
of the loxes can he so altered that the boat can he turned
immediately and steered in any direction. The experiments
made with this boat, which is intended to ply between
Luik and Seraing, have far exceeded expectation, and will
perhaps cause • revolution in the means of proonlaine.
The new modem, which has been discovered by a German,
nee Mr. Seiber, can be very well applied to large vossele.—

SHARKS ON THE NORTH-EAST COACT.—During
the pest week four at five of the waifs of shirk known as
the "bottle-nose" have been found stranded upon Ysrious
parts of the Yorkshire coast One of these =welcome
visitors wee left by the tide upon the rocks a little way to
the south of the Saloon, at Scarborough, on Monday, which
was about @even feet long, and proved an object of curing.,
to the numerous excursionists who thronged the wade en
that day, and • particular godsend to • party of insdical
. student.. who set regularly to work at dinection. The
place where the fish was stranded is rather tinenanfertably
near the hashing ground. The sharks are believed to be
hovering about the herring shoals, which fish us plentifully
caught just now mach nearer land. The prices of heaving
are now 71. 10s. to 81. per "last" of 10.000 ash.
I According to a recent °ennui the city of Georg*-
town contains near 30.11(10 inbahitante, and the county el
Demerara upwards of 60,000. Of them periowi 27 are 100
peers old and upwards.
