BOROUGH HOP.

- -
The supply of all kinds of hops in our market is small
Selected qualities are in moderate request, at full prices ;
but all other kinds are a dull inquiry. Last week's im-
ports were only 54 bales from Hamburgh. Mid and East
Kent pockets, 6/ lOs to 12/ ; Weald of Kent, 6l to 71;
Sussex, 51 12s to 6/ 10s.

SEEDS.
Clover seed is in fair request, at full prices. There is a
good inquiry for linseed, but the business doing is compa-
ratively limited, owing to the high pretensions of im-
porters. Bombay has realised 72s ; Black Sea, 70s ; and
fine Petersburgh, 6Ss per quarter. Cakes command ex-
treme rates.
