WANDS WORTH.

Mr. Samuel Kingston, the landlord of the Duke of
York, Lark Hall-lane, Clapham, was charged with
being drunk, and creating a riot in front of his own
house.

Police-constable Spice, 47 V, proved that on Mon •
day evening, about six o'clock, he found the defendant
outside his house drunk, and creating a great disturb.
ance. He had caused a large mob of people to
assemble, to the extreme annoyance of the respectable
inhabitants, and when remonstrated with by Mr.
Coleman, the inspector, he used most insulting and
idisgusting language, and his conduct was altogether
so bad that they were compelled to take him into
custody.

It further appeared that the defendant had been
charged at that court as recently as Friday last with
assaulting a constable named Collins, and was fined
10s. At the same time and place an Irish girl, who
had been acting as servant at the Duke of York was
charged by Mr. Kingston, jun., on suspicion of steal-
ing four sovereigns from the till ; but it was
admitted by the profligate parent that he had given
the girl the money for an immoral purpose, and she
was discharged. Mr. Kingston,jun., on this occa-
sion stated that his father had been twice in Peckham
Lunatic Asylum, but the Commissioners of Lunacy
released him as soon as the effects of drink had
worn off.

Mr. PAYNTER, after imposing a fine of 205., now
said that, unless some restraint was put upon the de-
fendant, he would enforce a power that had been
given him under a recent Act of Parliament, and
suspend his licence, which would have the effect of
shutting up his house; for the continuance of such
disgraceful scenes was not to be tolerated in a
respectable neighbourhood.

Genius, like the sun upon the dial, gives to the
human heart both its shadow and light.—Eliza Cook's
Journal.

HOP INTELLIGENCE.
BOROUGH, AUGUST 27.—The accounts during the
pat week have come more favourable. The warm
nights have caused the good grounds to progress. In
the blighted hops little or no improvement has taken
place. The duty has advanced to 90,0001. Our
market remains quiet.
MAIDSTONE.—In the Mid Kent parishes, gene'
rally, considerable improvement has been witnessed
during the past week, of which the weather has been
most favourable. A large number of grounds will do
nothing, but many, which were given over, nov
show a sprinkle of hops, and the top crop of those
which were better, will probably exceed former anti-
pations. In the opinion of many of our best judgea,
the duty will be even higher than now quoted.
MEREWORTH AND WATERINGBURY.—The hops 10
these parishes have much improved within the las,
fortnight, and have this year strictly verified the old
saying as to their coming out of the poles. The
grounds have been moderately clear from venni",
look well, and promise a good crop, and where the
vermin has been bad there will be a few good holt
But there are many grounds in that state, and shwa-
of bine, and in many of the strongest grounds the
mould is making dreadful ravages; some of the
growers will begin picking in a week or ten days 13"
that account ; and although there is every appearance
that we shall have as many more hops as were ex'
petted, yet we shall not have now more than half a
crop.
TESTON.—The hops in this parish have looked
rather better as regards quantity of bine than the
adjoining parishes, and have been more free from
vermin and mould, although we have had both, an'
have some mould still. They have improved fal:
beyond our best hopes within the last month ; shalt'
they continue so to do, we hope to obtain rather
more than an average crop for the year.
NETTLESTED.—A favourable change has take°
place within the last fortnight in the hops, which we
are likely to take our share of, although we have
mould, and some grounds are slack of bine.
YALDING AND HUNTONOUr hops in the best
grounds, some of which are very good, have much
improved during the past week. The weather has
been much in their favour. The mould is much ca
the increase in some gardens.
DIALLING.—The past week's weather has dia"
tinguished more clearly those grounds that will de
nothing, and those that will do a little. The effect
great in the few better grounds, in which we shall
grow a few more than was anticipated, if the mould
does not carry them off.
HORSMONDEN.—A change, as unprecedented as it
is welcome, has taken place in our hop group,'
within the last fortnight. They are now, in a mar
rity of instances, presenting a very splendid apPeaf,;•
ance. In many plantations, which a month since dah
not appear likely to produce a pocket per acre, there
will now probably be three; while those grounds
that were then considered middling, are now yell
fine. We are now likely to get an average for tne.
parish of from six to seven cwt. per acre, of a quality
which bid fair to be very superior.
EAST MALLING.—The late fine weather has Pre'
duced but little improvement in the blighted gardens,
but in the more favoured plantations there is de-
cidedly a great improvement. They are fast
coming out into a good sized hop, and look well for
condition.

%VROTHAM.—The hops here are decidedly
proving ; the last few warm nights have done a very
great deal of good where the hops have appeared,
hut there are some bines without any signs eve°
of burr.
EDENBRIDGE.—There is an improvement in the
best grounds since our last, but there are a greil
number of acres which will not produce a pocket
per acre.

ORPINGTON.—What few hops there are have growa
out very nicely. About one cwt. per acre may be
grown upon the best grounds.
CANTERBURY.—The recent warm weather has done
much for most plantations that were not previously
past all chance of rallying, and the produce of this
neighbourhood will exceed the estimate for some tune'
past generally calculated on, although there are many
grounds into which a basket will not be put. The
duty, at from 75,0001. to 80,0001, is supported pretty
freely.

11-URSTGREEN.—The hops have made a little jai;
provement since last week, but not to any 816',
extent, and some are past the hope of doing anxtblit
worth mentioning; some of the best ground is also
attacked with flea. A meeting takes place liere,L
Friday next, in consequence of the refusal of tvivi
Chancellor of the Exchequer to grant the prayer °
the Hastings memorialists.
TlCEHURST.—lmprovement is going on in the nen?
favoured grounds; but the crop on the generality °f
the plantations in this neighbourhood will be 1?-
p o
small.—Maidstone Gazette of Tuesday.

ENGLISH PROPAGANHISM.----A very extraordinary
scene for Paris occurred yesterday evening in the Place
,
de la Bourse. Soon after six o'clock a young and we.".
,
dressed Englishman got upon a post, with a small pocks!,
Testament in his hand, and a few persons having assero'
bled be began to harangue them in very good French
on the bles,ings of peace. Two sergens de tulle, who
wero on duty at the Vaudeville Theatre, perceiving that
a crowd was assembling, went to the spot and informed
the z •alous but imprudent orator that open-air lectures
in Paris were contrary to law. The Englishman per-
sisted, and said that his object was pacific. The officers
replied that they did not question the excellence of his
motives, but that no person could deliver harangues in
the public thoroughfare without a permission from the
Prefect of
to Police, and they requested him politely but
earnestly withdraw. lie replied in French,. Je as me
retire pas," on which the sergens de ville took him by the
arm and led him away.—Galignani.
A NOBLE ACT.-11 few years since a profound
mathematician died in this town, leaving a wife and fa-
mily unprovided for. Those who knew and esteemed the,
deceased raised 600 L, and invested it for the widow and
children in a railway. Subsequently the stock was
g
reatly depreciated, but the gentleman who recommends.
the investment took up the shares, and paid the dig*"
rence; that gentleman was one who never tires in acts
of benevolence and unostentatious charity, Mr.
William
Rat bone.—Liverpool Journal.
