BOROUGH HOP.

Last year's hops continue in steady request, at fully late
rates. The supply of new produce brought forward within
the last few days has found buyers at from £7 to £3 10s per
cwt. For old hops the trade is in a sluggish state, at about
previous rates.
NE W GATE AND LEADENIIALL.

Moderate supplies of meat are on sale at these markets.
For good and prime qualities there is a steady demand, at
tall prices; otherwise, the trade is quiet, at our quotations :

LARGE OTTER IN THE RIVER DEE.—A few days
since, Mr B. Yates, one of Col. Biddulph's gamekeepers,
shot a magnificent otter on the Dee, a short distance below
Newbridge. It appears that Mr Yates saw two of these
animals disporting themselves in the stream, and succeeded
in shooting one, which proved to be a female, and mea-
sured 311 sin in length from nose to tail, The oth.m, sup-
pond to bo the, male, MAU off'.
