WOOLLEN.—Lums, MAY 29.—The Coloured Han QM
morning has again shown little signs of animation, tio
attendance of merchants having been below the ammo,
and few parcels of importance have changed hand,. flu.
tune coatings and plain cloths have been chiefly innow
for, but have been very sparingly transferred. The tha
Market has also been quiet. Witneys, beavers, and other
seasonable makes have met with purehasers only is a
limited extent, and hairlints have not been in great
mand. There has not been any alterrtion from Saim
day's quotation of prices.

MANUFACTITRFA—Humpnaarrnu, MAT 29.—Bet
very few buyers either from London or elsewhere bin
been in attendance to-day, and with the existing pude bet
few were expected. Their operations were confined to
mediate requirements in seasonable goods, but for cane
descriptions little or no demand. The local merchants
also exercise the greatest caution, taking only such assn
required to fit up orders. There is nospeculative basilica
going on whatever, no one appearing willing to make km
transactions even at a slight reduction in price.

WOOLS.—HUDDERMELD, MAY 29.—The price of wool,
are lower than last sales, and, although it is quite siipr
rent, it does not seem to be an inducement to purciasm
to operate. The slight demand for manufactured goods
and the enormous quantity yet to sell in London mini
fear that prices will be still lower.

THE HOP PLANTATIONS.-ROCHESTER, HAT a
—Owing to the cold easterly winds, combined with is
late frosts, the young hops continue in a very critical as
dition and up to the present time the planters' proi
are exceedingly discouraging. The cold nights have has
very disastrous effect on the young bine, which, instead d
looking strong and healthy, as is generally the case at tha
season of the year, the plants begin to assume a yell"
sickly appearance from a deficiency of sap. In some of tka
best grounds in Mid Kent, all hope of anything like a pi
yield this season is abandoned, whilst some of the WO
growers have already commenced taking up their lec4
poles front the ground and attacking them, as in wink;
being almost certain that the bine this year will Da
sufficiently strong to need such support. The °pendia 01
tying is still incomplete in man, of the districts, in conse-
quence of the young bine having made scarcely any pr e•
grata during the past two or three weeks. Should cba
present ungenial weather continue even aweek or Dolour,
there is no doubt that the young plants will receive sod s
check that they will not recover, and the prospects of
sal
thing approaching a large yield this year are therefore's.%
the best, exceedingly doubtful. Already, in many of tbs
plantations, fly have commenced their ravages, the Sok.
tugs suffering the most from these pests.
