BOROUGH HOP.

The accounts from the plantatlons this morning are
favourable. Tha recent easterly winds have had the effect
of checking the too rapid growth of the bine, which, although
it made but little progress lest week, looks healthy, and is
toleralely free from blight. The amount of business doing
in our market is moderate; nevertheless, all good and flue
hops command extreme rates. Inferior hops are obtainable
at slightly reduced quotations. No imports of foreign hops
took place into London last week.

SPORTING NOTES,
THE ASCOT MEETING.

The glorious uncertainty of the turf was never more

exemplified than it was yesterday at Paris. The great race
seemed to be reduced to a match between Blair Athol, the
Derby winner, and Fille de i'Air, the French and English
Oaks victrix, but suffered defeat from a stable companion
of Bois•Roussel.
The Ascot meeting commences to-morrow, and no doubt

will be honoured with the presence of the Prince and
Princess of Wales. There are nine items set down for
decision on the first day. The Ascot Stakes has a miserable
acceptance out of the 49 entered, only 17 having cried
" ;ontent." Baldwin, the top weight, is entirely out of
the race. Canary and Thalestris are nicely in, and if Canary
be meant I cannot ses how ho can lose, Wandering
Yar-
and ALABAMA as his im.
. I shall expect to see
olds
Nlinstrel, Sheridan, Alabama, and Ciaxton will be found
CANARYtbesthe

nt,h
withe th r ee
Thalestris-
mediate followers.

The Prince of Wales Stakes has both Blair Athol and
Fille de l'Air engaged, with 9:1) Penalty each, the former
for winning the Derby and the latter the Oaks, Both are

likely to be absentees. Scottish Chief has 51b penalty,
which will just enable Knight of Snowdon to reverse the
Epsom running. Lord Zetland will be his most dangerous
opponent. Little Stag has only to face the starter to win
the Gold Vase; but as he may be resereed for the Cup on
Thursday, I shall couple Fairwater and Oldminster with
him.

The Qumnis Stand Plate, T.Y.C., looks more like a
handicap than a weight for age race, as the weights, after
adding the penalties and deducting the allowances, stand
as under :

The too-weighted Umpire won this race last year. The
distance to ho ti aversed is only five furlongs, and as weight
makes very little difference over a short course, he may
just pull through. Lady Clifden is by far the best of the
old horses engaged, and if she comes to the post in anything
like form she will have no difficulty in disposing of all
who may oppose her. The only one likely to upset her
ladyship's colours is LA BEARNArs. The Tenth Ascot
Biennial will be carried off by Blue Mantle or King of the
Vale, and the Seventh Ascot Biennial by Gardevisure,
unless she is reserved for the New Stakes. The Royal
Hunt Cup is seldom won by the best horse. It is one of those
races that depends more on a start than merit. There are
several good horses amongst the entries, amongst whom are
Trumps, Amelia, Muezzin, Humphrey, Caroline, and
Finesse. If HUMPHREY will only run up to his three-yr-
old form, when he beat as large
fields as will contest this
race, I should look no further for the winner ; failing him
I shall trust to Amelia and Caroline. The Cup and the
New Stakes I shall refer to on Wednesday. Lord St.
Vincent no doubt will win the Cup, as he has two strings
to his bow in Lord Clifden and Little Stag.

close this week, have gone off steadily since our last, at
very full prices. Port Philip wool is now ld to lid; Syd-
ney, Adelaide, and Cape, id to ld per lb dearer than at the
close of last series. Up to the present time, rather more
than 90,000 bales have been disposed of, and of this
quantity a considerable proportion has been taken by foreign
buyers. In the English wool trade there is much less fine-
ness, owing to increased supplies having been forwarded to
market, as well as to a disposition on the part of holders to
realise. Prices, consequently, have fallen Id to 2d per lb
for the late highest point. The import into London last
week amounted to 535 bales from East London ; 672 Port
Natal; 3,730 Launc2ston ; 3,008 Moretown Bay; and 479
bales from Odessa.
