HOP INTELLIGENCE.

SOUTHWARK, June 13.—We have reports of considerable
Ay in several districts of the plantations, and prices have
advanced from 6s. to 81. per cwt. Mid and East Kents
1965. to 1625. ; 190 s. to 1401.; Weald of Kent', 120 s. to
1405.; Sussex, 115 s. to 130 s.

idEntwourit.—There is a little fly, but nothing to hurt
at present. In some grounds the bine is rather short, owing
it is thought, to the wetness of the winter aad spring, which
has injured the stock.

STAPLZHURST.—The bine is looking remarkably well in
some places ; but when we had the wet so very severe, it is
by no means what could be wished. The fly is not very
prce.dent yet; one or two upon a leaf upon an average.
The nidget has been busily employed dialing the week.

YALDINO AND WEST IARLiIOH.—Tbe bine continues
to progrese, but the fly has now decidedly made its appear-
ance. As yet we have not much, but must expect them
every day. Blight would be a source of regret, as we have
so few hops on hand.
I:Lcomits.—Tle bine is growing fast, but some is still
weakly. On the bth inst., the first fly—one or two—was
observed here. On the 6th there was an increase ;on the
7th, ten or twelve upon a leaf under the hedges; on the
Bth, a further increase ; on the 10th, a diminution ; and on
the llth, very little to be found.

Wataxn•in.—The bine is growing luxuriantly, and the
favourable weather of the put week has done wonders for
the hop garden. On Tuesday, one or two fly on a leaf were
to he seen here and there; but the following day, being
dull and favourable for them, as many as tarty and fifty
have been counted on a leaf. They do not like the scorch-
ing rays of the "orb of day ;" all depends on the weather.
If we have a continuation of such weather as to-day (Ilth
June), the fly will do little damage ; on the contrary, we go
into a black blight cafe. The flea still stick to the bine,
following them up to the head leaves.

TOXIMIDOE.—ihere has been a considerable increase of
fly during the last few days, front ten to thirty on a leaf
may be found in many situations. Fortunately a great
number of fly geldings are on the alert. The bine hu pro-
gressed satisfactorily during the last few wenn days, not-
withstanding the enemies that have beset it.
OTHAX.—The hops in most of the plantations have grown
rapidly during the put week ' • but there are some gardens
which are still lagging behind.
_

MARDEN.—Thebiue is growing fast in some plantations.
The fly s eery numerous.

WHOTICAII(UPPER).—The bine is growing fast, but fly
bits made its appearance in the last few days. The land
works badly for want of rain, whi.:li would be of great
service.

ROLVENDEN.—The hops are very uneven ; some grow
very fast, others are weakly, and cannot do much. The
fly is on the increase.
ATLEBFORD.—The bine is making rapid progress owing
to the warm days we have lately had. The flea has not at
all decreased in number, but cannot now do much mischief.
The fly made its appearance at the beginniog of the week,
and there is now no difficulty in findicif fo ir or live on a
leaf. Unless we have hot dry weather, judging by present
appearances, there will be but little chance of a full crop.
_ .

_
13mm/et:l.—The bine is growing fast where it is strong ;
of flea there is very little ; of lice scarcely any at present,
but of fly a good deal; as many as three on a leaf have
been found. The fly, however, is by no means general.
Some of the grounds continue very short of bine, and have
not a healthy appearance. We cannot calculate upon a
crop this season.
BOUGHTON BIONCHELSEA. —Our bine is very uneven
—not even, as min-stated last week. The strong blue is
doing well, but fly is getting numerous, and already pre-
sents an appearance very much like,a blight. A crop now
seems very unlikely.
CRANBROOK.—The bine in the best gardens is growing
fast, but the grounds which have rain in such a position as
to retain the excessive moisture in the winter and spring
have progressed but sluggishly. There is a considerable
quantity of fly observable at places; 17 have been found
located on one small leaf.

CHART SUTTON.—The bine has grown rapidly this week,
and improved in colour. We had a great deal of fly on
Monday and Tuesday, bat there is not so much as there was.
MALTING (West).—The bine grows very fast ; pieces of
weak bine have very much improved this week, and the
ground in general works well.

LAME AND FLAG RAGGED SCHOOLS.—Last even-
ing the eighth annual meeting of the friends and support-
ers of these schools, was held in the school-room, Amwell-
street, Pentonville. The Earl of Kintore in the chair.
The meeting was numerously attended. The report
stated that the improvement of the children was evident.*
The enlargement of the schools had been completed, and
they were re-opened in December last. All debts had
been liquidated, and 251. carried to the general school ac-
count. Since the re-opening of the schools, the average
attendance bad been to the day school, 301 ; infant school,
140, Sunday school 382 (of this number 51 belongedto the.
Bible and 42 to the Testament classes) ; and evening school
180—total, 1,003. The report then stated that 2,846 Bibles,
prayer books, and other useful books, together with 320
copy books, had been distributed to the children. The
deposits in the clothing fund amounted to 221. 13s. 65., and
the premiums, 61. 19s. 9d., and 389 articles of clothing had
been given to the children during the year. On the motion
of the Rev. Canon Champneye, the report was adopted, and
resolutions in furtherance of the objects of the meeting were
passed, and a vote of thanks to the Earl of Kintore closed
the proceedings.
TILE ROYAL GARDEN AT HOLYROOD PALACE.-
1 I cannot help noticing a disgraceful fact, which has only
lately oorne to my knowledge. There is adjoining the l'a-
lace of Rolyrood an ancient garden of the old kings of
Scotland : in it is a curicus sun-dial, with Queen Mary's
name on it. There is a pear-tree planted by her hands,
and there are many other deeply interesting traces of the
royal race, who little dreamed how their old stately places
were to be profaned, after they themselves were laid in the
dust. The garden of the Royal Stuarts is now let to a
market gardener: Are there no true hearted Scotchmen
left who will redeem it from such desecration ?—.Vores and
Queries.
