HOP INTELLIGENCE.

MATDSTONII.—The favourable and healthy appearance of
the bite in thin district is almost unparelleled. The observer may look
through a hug-ground and scarcely hod a damaged leaf ; and
the deep healthy green colour and vigorous bearing of the branches
herein unantmoo strength. Neither Telugu nor bad weather seems,
up to this period, to have affected them, and reports of the mould,
their greatest enemy in luxuriant reasons, are rare.
Ildwraiw.titTir AND WEST PiCILHAM.—The wet weather
during the week has ceased the mould to toucan to a vast extent in
must of the plantations, which is a very unfavourable prospect.
HADLOW.—Tbe hops still continua to do well, with pleat,
of bine and burr.

tALDINIII.IIND HCNTON.—The hops have got On well, but
the hits continuous showers have canted the mould to Increase in
many grounds, and if the wet weather continues, we are afraid it will
be attended with serious coniequenoes.
11013MONDIEN.—The accounts of the excellent appearance
of the hop Roes from ea quarters of our parish leave nothing to be
desired but hot weather to bang them to maturity, when there is but
little doubt we shall get a One crop.
0301.7DEIVIST —ln consequence of the land being saturated
a►undantly, combined with some excessively cold nights, the bons
have am progressed to that perfection we could have anticipated.
There is shortness o f bine in gen •ral in the oldest pLuatations, compared
with the younger plant; on the whole ;they are looking luxuriant,
and without the least vermin of any description.
CILLNIMOOL.—The bine stall continues in a flourishing
and growing state. although we must admit that there it not near so
much of it as we have seen at this time of the year. We never recol-
lect observing the plant so clear of vermin, and an opinion pre►ails
here that the crop will be somewhat large. The burr is rapidly
dere,. ping Itself.
ROLVENDITC—The bops are goieg on as well ae they can.
Where the bine was a little slack they are greatly improved. We
think the duty will be heavy.
TINTERDIBM.—The hops continue to progress favourably
in thisdletriet, and the late hailstorm, which have fallen within a fee
mile. and done considerable damage, base not sot been felt in this
immediate neighbourhood.

rolgriiiirANlTlZL.—The late warm, showery weather
has been very beneficial to the bine, which is fast putting forth barn
and, should the weatheroontinue favourable, there la ever appearance
et an average crop.
TIMBRIDO3 WILLS.—We have little alteration in the
progreas of the plant to remark. Ilse hops look well everywhere
round this place. The bine is strong, and rapidly CUSOillif out in burr.
We shall, judging from appearance*, have a good crop.
EDENDISIDOB.—.The bine is doing well, and getting into
burr fast.—Maidrfoose Gazette of July 30.

MALTA AND LEVANT.

We have received our correspondence from Malta
and the Levant. Our correspondent at Malta, writing
on the 22nd, sates that the English fleet still canti-
need off the island. The number of sick in the fleet,
which an.ounted at one time to 300, of whom the
Queen alone counted 80, was greatly reduc d. The
deaths hsd been few. On shore, a few isolsts d cues
of cholera occurred, chiefly among the soldiers of the
44th, quartered at Florian. Dr. Grey, assl'aut-sur-
goon of the 44th, died on the night of the 13th. Ad-
mire: Parker came in on the 14th, in the Firebrand,
and still remains. Vessels from Malta are subjected
to a quarantine of 21 days at Naples, 14 at Celts
Vecchia and Leghorn; 10 at Genoa, Ancona, Corfu,
Puns, and Athens; 20 at Smyrna; 21 at Constan-
tinople ; and 10 in Syria, Alexandria, and Tripoli.
Our letters from Athens are of the 18:h. The
Greek government demanded of the Chamber a sup-
plementary grant for three months. The person
chiefly instrumental in robbing the Greek bank, De-
metrius Coocarsi, had been arrested at Smyrna, and
brought to Athens, where he confessed this crime.
The French admiral Trehonart arrived in the Piraeus

on the 7th, in the frigate Pandora. A band of SO
brigands bad burned • large tillage called Kolaka.
Numberless other bands exercised the most audacious
depredations and atrocious cruelties. The signature
of the treaty terminating the differences between
Greece and Great Britain, of which we have received
news from Paris, did not seem to be publicly known
at the departure of the mail.
Our letters from Constantinople are of the 15th.
Colonel Rose, consul-general at Beyrout, had arrived,
on his way to Syria. Gen. Jockmus was also in Con-
stantinople. Coffee was in great demand.
Cotton is in demand at Smyrna. 300 piastres were
asked on the 15th for the canter. 500 bales were
sold at 290 piastres the canter. Coffee scarce, and
worth 750 piastres the 100 ekes.

SHILIRSBURIf AND HIREFOND.—The directors have
Leaned a repot to the shareholders, in which they state that
only about 1-16th, of the required capital, or little more than
20,0001., remains to be subscribed I. order to enable them at
once to commence the woths The directors had hoped that
this portion of the required capital would be contributed by
the Shrewsbury and Ch Company. but circumstances
prevent that company from making that contribution at
present. The direeton have confirmed the contract entered
tato with Mr. Bracey, who has undertaken to construct end

including the electric telegraph. It is intended to proceed
with the works as soon as possible.
BAnTint4 UNION.—The directors, in their report to the
shareholders, state that, having obtained en act to enable
them to pay a their mortgage debt, they intend to propose
at the meeting on the 2nd proximo, that the total amount of
mortgage debt outstanding shall be reduced to a sum not ex-
ceeding 350,0001.; and, to accomplish this, that they be au-
thorised to create debenture shares, and to raise thereby, from
time to time, in conformity with the act, a sum not exceed-
ing 265,000 i., or about one-belt of the present borrowed
money ; the shares not to exceed 101. each, and to be entitled
to a rate of interest from the date thereof, not exceeding 44
per cent , Himmel in perpetuity, or 5 per cent. if redeemable
within 14 years. They propose to offer to every holder of a
mortgage or bond now due, or to become due on or before
the Ist of January, 1851, payment of it in the proportion of
one-half its amount by " debenture shares," and one-half in
a new mortgage.

The accounts relative to the approaching harvest
received from most of the chief wheat producing
states of the union continue to be, on the whole, of a
promising character. The farmers throughout Penn-
sylvania, notwithstanding the drought which pre-
vailed during the month of lone, according to the
last accounts, were reaping a bountiful harvest both
of wheat and rye. The grass crop was also good, but
the oats in this district will be very short. From
Ohio we learn that everything looks prosperous in
that quarter, there being a fine crop of wheat ripe for
the sickle, and a prospect for an excellent crop of oorn.
In a great portion of Indiana the wheat crop was safe.
Tke yield is a full average one, and a much larger
quantity has been grown than is any previous year.
A good deal of rain had lately fallen in this state,
which had recovered the corn, and the prospect for •
good crop was considered very fair. The: crop is
represented as "coming in better than for several
years past," and it was believed that more wheat will
be sent to market this fall from the state than in any
previousyear. Should it sell at a fair price," add
our accounts, "our people will soon be out of debt."
The corn was still backward, but there was plenty
of time for a good crop, nothwithstanding.
In Virginia the appearance of the wheat is stated
to be, in many districts, the reverse of encouraging,
and a short yield was expected, owing to the injury
done by the continued wet weather. In the Central
States of the West, however, where drooght has of
late extensively prevailed, the recent showers had
greatly improved the grain fields, and afforded a good
prospect of the best crops. The wheat harvest was
just about commencing in these states, and should
the rust (which is the danger of the last day of
growth), not intervene, the crop of this grain was ex-

assert that a protocol has been signed in London, by
the representatives of the great powers, guaranteeing
the int.grity of the Danish kingdom, and a common
PW cession to Denmark and the Duchies; Austria, it is
said, will also sign the guarantee. 1 mention this
statement for the purpose of correcting the error. I
am assured on very good authority that no such pro-
tocol has b.en signed. The document which has
redly been drawn up (I am n:•t certain that it has
been signed) guarantees that future negotiations shall
be entered into on the two points.

conditions:-1. That the only entrance Into the park which
shall be used for the " ge of the materials, &a for the
ersposed building shall be that celled "The Prince of
Wal.s'a Gate." 2. That the it it, wave Inside and outside
the park arid the roadway in the park, to the extent of 25
yards on either side of the gives, shell be paved with
granite at the expiate of the commissioners for the exhibi-
tion, and to the satisfaction of this board. 3. That the
ride called "The Queen's Ride" shall not be interfered
with in any way, either by the eonstrucion of the works or
during the progress of the exhibition. 4. That none of the'
existing drains in the park shall be interfered with so as to
impede their action. 5. That no trees shall be cut or re-
moved without the previous consent of this beard. The
sixth condition requires the time to he stated when the
buildings will be removed, an I if not removed, then the
Woods and Forests to remove the same. 7. That when the
building shall have been removed this board shall reinstate
the ground in its present condition, and that the commis-
, slams of the exhibition shall defray the elpenee of such re-
instatement. The commiseionets suggest a close hoarding
round the space for the proposed building.

THE POST-OFFICE CHANGES.

The following Post-office instructions have been
issued t ) the deputy postmasters since the ceesa•icn of Bur.-
day duty:
As great inconvenience has resulted from postmasters
having in many instances neglected to despatch begs on
Sunday last, I .:ca directed by the Postmaster-General to
inform you, that the bags must always be despatched on
Sundays, as heretofore, whether there ere letters or not to
be for warded in them, and that in either we the bag must
contain a bill in a' coraance with the usual practice.
To enable the Postruwer-General to decide what r:-due-
lion elan be nirlo in the wages of letter un: viers and rural
past messengers, in consequence of the diminution of their
labour effected by the new regulations, which come into
operation on Sunday, the 23rd ult., I have to desire you will
immediately furuich the following informalen. viz :—ll•iw
many deliveries were made by each letter-currier attached to
your office previhusly to the 23rd ult., end how many are at
resent t—What are the wages of each letter carrier ?
Wnst rural post messengers have been relier,d from work
oa Sunday within the last twelve months, without any re-
duction being made in their wages?—Whet are the wages or
such meisengrro ?—The question of die relief which may
have been afforded to the clerks will be the subject of a
future consideration.
With reference to the latter instruction, there sr: nearly
20,000 town and country lettevearriers, whose wages average
about lie. or lie. a week. A redaction of one enilling per
week from the wegis of each of these persons would cc no-
mile the post-office espenditure to the amount of 50,0001. a
year.

THE WIFE OF A CLERGYMAN ACCIDENTALLY SNOT
BY MIR Iletsnater..—A very shocking event ins recently
recurred at the town of St. Clears, near Carmarthen. The
Rev. J. Lloyd, who resides in the neighbourhood, was
examining a gun which be had procured for the purpose of I
killing v.rmin, and while rubbing. the barrel with a piece of
rag it accidentally caught the trigger. The gun went off,
and the contents were lodged in the body of the wife of the
reverend gent'sman, who was seated on a chair nesr her
husband. She fell immediately to the ground, and expired
in a few minutes. An inquest was held upon the body, and
a verdict of 4. Accidental Death" was recorded.
I)EFALCATION BY A LATE INSPECTOR OF THE
Poon.—John Henderson, who for acme years dig:Urged
the duties of collector of the sesesament and inspector of
the poor for Montrose, was, a few days since, apprehended in
Edinburgh, and charged with the embezzlement of 3611. of
the monies Intromitted by him In his official character. The

The Journal of Rome of the 30th ult. publishes a

be observed in the issue of the bills.

rived at Bulogca on the 30th, and Dr. Wi,cman on

from those habits awl pursuits which must eventually lead

cost of keeping their children, when in prison, would come I

to keep them out cf ceine, and out of the reach of those

MADRID, Fss. 26.
Yesterday the tribunal was crowded with political
men of every shade, on account of the trial of Don
George Martinez, concerning whom so mach noise
was made when he was thrown into prison for
having challenged General Narvaez. The whole of
this affair has a tint of the ridiculous. The man bad
been imprisoned, and then accused as having infringed
an article of the criminal code. He was set at liberty
for want of proofs. He was imprisoned again by
virtue of a royal warrant. Pacheco, ono of the ready-
wittiest of Spanish barris'ers, kept the court in roars
of laughter at the expense of NIIITSIZ and his col-
leagues. The ease was adjourned.

The Gasorteof Madrid contains the
gratulation pronounced yereerday by the Captain-
General of Madrid, Count Miruol, in the name of a
deputation of the officers of the army. In her reply
the Queen said, that she had always been the object
of the love and proverbial loyalty of the Spanish
soldiery, they had preserved the throne of her father,
and had since fought for liberal institutions, and in
defense of her person.
The miaisterial papers state that the new American
ambassador has given satisfactory explanations re-
specting the effort of the Spanish consul in New
Orleans. The withdrawal of the consul's ezeguatur,
and the peremptory style of the document at with-
drawal has produeed some effect here, as it shows how
the Yankees would act in case of another similar
affair. Borrego, formerly editor of the Espana and
other periodicals, has just returned from England.
Tr-ere is some talk of a ministerial modification to-
day. They say that Mon will enter the ministry,
and that Narvacz will sacrifice hisplus Achates, Sar-
torins, who will make room for a progresista.
The distribution of the public expenses for the pre-

affects to be afraid of a movement, the armonrers have
been ordered to take off the triggers from all the fire-
arms in their shops, and the garrison is tired out
