place, and Mr. Vansittart, walked 'off with a miserable
minority, as every one expected, into the
this is not factious opposition, it is very much like it.
It was pass ten when the House got to 'AI business,
and wont into -committee on the Legacy Duties ; but even
at that late,hour, tired as every one was, so artistic an
orator is Gladstone, that every one listened with in-
terest. For myself, Ido like to see the Chancellor con-
ducting a debate. He is all attention and life. He
leans slightly forward, turning his face to 'the Speaker
—on his knees he has a note-book, and with a pencil in
hand he takes a note of every argument advanced, or
fact stated, on whichever side of the case it may be.
You are tired, are you, my good sir ? Well, we'll
stretch our legs and walk into the reporters'
gallery. Did• you see, as you Caine in, as you
went into the waiting-room, a little door on your
left ? You will find it leads you to a narrow stair-
case. We go up that staircase, and come to a little
lobby, where we shall find two lads dressed in a
kind of uniform. They belong to the electric telegraph
office, and are waiting for dispatches—which in another
minute will be on their way to all the great towns of our
own and other lands. We enter a room on the left. The
good things of life are all around us—coffee, roast-beef,
and capita stuff it is. This is where the reporters re-
fresh the inner man, and well may they do so, though
those we see at present do not look very weary, and
seem far more inclined for chaff than work. The ami-
able fellows are now poking their fun at each other as
they pass up the gallery or come down from it with their
! short-hand notes, with which they will now hurry to
their respective offices and copy out quickly, for they
must be back very soon. This room is virtually un-
der the management of Lord Charles Russell, sergeant-
at-arms ; but really of Mr. Dodd, whose "Parliamentary
Companion"—we hope we shall not be charged the ad-
vertisement duty for saying so--is really an indispensable
work. -Mr. Dodd is the manager of the Timer's Parlia-
mentary corps, and is therefore a man of'much weight ;
but, good sir, he sees you are not one of us--so, with
your leave, we will make our exit. The reporting gal-
lery none 'can enter but reporters themselves.— Weekly
News and Chronicle.

HOP INTELLIGENCE.

AYLESFORD.—The bine has made but little progress
since last week, owing to the cold nights and north-east
winds. The flea has made its appearance in rather large
quantities. The cold windy days and frosty nights cause
the bine to grow very unkindly.
BARMING.—The bine grows very slowly, and very
little is yet tied. The cold and wet unsettled weather
prevents the bine from growing. It is here and there
very platty. It was scarcely ever known to be so back-
ward as at the present time.
HIGICAM.—The bine, although very backward, is now
coming on favourably. The grounds work well, and
polling is nearly finished.
MARDEN.—The bine has grown but slowly during the
past week, and is generally very backward.
MEREWORTEL—The bine in most grounds is eoming
well, but is rather backward in consequence of the long-
continued cold and wet.

OTHAM.—The bine is very backward, the season con-
tinuing so cold, and a little flea has made its appearance
Tying has partially commenced in a few forward grounds.
TONBRIDGIL—The bine is very backward, the earth
being yet in a wet and cold state, is much against the
progress of the young shoots.
TOWN MALLING.—The bine here is a little uneven,
but it is growing very fast. 'We have nearly finished
poling. The showery weather prevents the nidget and
hoe from being used,

ROLVENDEN.—The poling will soon be brought to a
close. Sane growers will commence tying at the begin-
ning of the week. Several gardens are injured by the
unusually wet winter.

WEALD or KENT.—The hop plants have received a
severe check from the long-continued coldness and wet-
ness of the weather, which will no doubt injure their
productiveness. Some grounds are not yet poled, and
in many places the bine is hardly out of the ground, in-
stead of being, as in other years in the middle of May,
half-way up the poles.
WROTHAL—The hop plants here aro certainly striv-
ing hard against the unfavourable state of the weather.
A few congenial days and nights would put quite an-
other face on everything.—Maidstone Journal.

EMIGRATION.—As the season advances the numbers
leaving our shores increase. Every time that the
steamer sails for Liverpool considerable numbers of com-
fortably-dressed people crowd our streets, either leaving
themselves or seeing some friend depart for the "land
of promise." We hear many complaints of the want of
efficient labourers, and it is feared that if this continuous
drain of our agricultural population continues, and we
see no reason to suppose it will cease, there will be few
left to carry on the ordinary cultivation of the country.

THE DUBLIN EXHIBITION.

DUBLIN, MAT 18'
THE MANUFACTURES OF JAPAN.
The unique collection of manufactures, works
alt, and curiosities from Japan, contributed to the
Exhibition by the King of Holland demands notice,
independently of its intrinsic merits, from the eir'
cumstance that it is the first tithe similar productiong
have been seen in Europe beyond the walls of the
Museum at the Hague ; and an early notice is svel
deserved, pis°, because, with Dutch punctuality
business-like management, this collection was ready for
inspection at the opening of the Exhibition When $ll

around was confusion and packing cases.
That branch of manufacture which, from the pill
of its origin, has in this country obtained the natty,
of " Japanning," is not so largely represented 3:
might have been anticipated, but the compar3tiv,e;,.l
few specimens are sufficient to show that the P"'
mingham- manufacturers have not yet attained
ass°
high a degree of finish in this art as the
It is not that the polish of the varnish is brighter,
and there is a perfect evenness of surface that reflect;
the light equally as from a surface of ground 3/10
polished glass, without any of the irregn
generally observable in English goods of 91,11/illit+ho
kind. It would appear that the varnish °I :he
Japanese must be of superior quality to that of ''of
English, for, judging from a set of tea cups inaci°o
papier machd, that material is accustomed to
used in contact with hot water, without intle'fi
po
jury to the surface, and without
a disagreeable taste to the beverage. There
a specimen also of a bowl for holding
made of straw japanned, which feels it cif;
than papier mach4, and equally strong. ;`," of
evident, indeed, even from the small var',B".l
'arida
specimens of this branch of manufacture in the "A•
lection, that the Japanese apply the process of
ea e
panning to many other uses than we are acenstf ,
to. Among the warlike accoutrements, for ins7;irercly
there is a highly-finished japanned shield, e;te,,
black, without ornament, which projects in the crie
in the approved form of ancient shields. Whether:
ball would glance from the curvature may. be verY griseoff
tionable, but it is at all events well adapted to NW"
any missile projected by hand.
