HOP INTELLIGENCE.

BOROUGH, AUGUST 27.—The accounts during the
past week have come more hivourable. The warm
nigi:ts 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.

MAlnszosiE.---an 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, nosy
show a sprinkle of hops, and the top crop of those
which were better, will probably exceed former a al'
potions. In, the opinion of many of our best judges*
the duty will be even higher than now quoted.
MEREWORTH AND WATERINGBURY.—The hops in
these parishes have much improved within the JO,
fortnight, and have this year strictly verified the old
saying as to their coming out of the poles. Th°
grounds have been moderately clear from vermin'
look well, and promise a good crop, and where the
vermin has been bad there will be a few good belt
But there are many grounds in that state, and AP'
of bine, and in many of the strongest grounds 1115
mould is making dreadful ravages; some of the
growers will begin picking in a week or ten days on
that account ; and although there is every appears°
that we shall have as many more hops as were ex'
pected, yet we shall not have now more than half $
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 foil
vermin and mould, although we have had both, 012
have some mould still. They have improved St
beyond our best hopes within the last month ; should
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 havA
mould, and some grounds are slack of bine.
YALDING AND IluwroN.—Our hops in the b 6
grounds, some of which are very good, have much
improved during the past week. The weather b°
been much in their favour. The mould is much 011
the increase in some gardens.
MALLING.—The past week's weather has dir
tinguished more clearly those grounds that will uC)
nothing, and those that will do a little. The effect
great in the few better grounds, in which we 0,1;
grow a few more than was anticipated, if the men'
does not carry them off.
HOESMONDEN.— A change, as unprecedented Olt
is welcome, has taken place in our hop groom's
within the last fortnight. They are now, in a rne:l°:
rity of instances, presenting a very- splendid apPeill
once. In many plantations, which a month since
not appear likely to produce a pocket per acre, there
will now probably be three; while those grand
that were then considered middling, are now very
fine. We are now likely to get an average for 4,
parish of from six to seven cwt. per acre, of a quail'
which bid fair to be very superior.
EAST MALLING.—The late fine weather has Pro,
duced but little improvement in the blighted garder
but in the more favoured plantations there le
cidedly a great improvement. They are Tor
coming out into a good sized hop, and look well I
condition. .

WROTHAM.—The hops here are decidedly ini‘
proving; the last few warm nights have done a veil
great deal of good where the hops have appear
e,:i
but there are some bines without any signs ev`
of burr. •
EDENBRIDGE.—There is an improvement in titi
best grounds since our last, but there are a gre4
number of acres which will not produce a Pec,,
greet
acre.
ORPINGTON.-IVhat few hops there are have gre;110
out very nicely. About one cwt. per acre Inel
grown upon the best grounds. 136
CANTERBURY.—The recent warm weather has
much for most plantations that were not previotlisi
past all chance of rallying, and the produce of t.''
neighbourhood will exceed the estimate for some We
past generally calculated on, although there are reti's
grounds into which a basket will not be put. 'ptif
duty, at from 75,0001. to 80,0001, is supported pre. •
freely.
HuasTGREEN.—The hops have made a little lent
provement since last week, but not to any gib a
extent, and some are past the hope of doing all iso
worth mentioning; some of the best ground 15 /10
attacked with flea. A meeting takes place be,retbo
Friday next, in consequence of the refusal 0' of
Chancellor of the Exchequer to grant the praYe'
the Hastings memorialists. veif
TlCEHURST.—lmprovement is going on in tbe., of
favoured grounds; but the crop on the generaluteri
the plantations in this neighbourhood will be
small.—Maidstone Gazette of Tuesday.

ENGLISH PR(JPA.GANDISM.—A very extraordiitle
scene tor Paris occurred yesterday evening
de hi Bourse. Soon after six u'clock a young an" 00
dressed Englishman got upon a post, with a small psolo,
Testament in his hand, and a few persons having s 'lO
bled he began to harangue them in very good Frewbo
on the bl,ssings of peace. Two sergens de vale,eC
were on duty at the Vaudeville Theatre, perceiving ifej
a crowd was assembling, went to the spot and intelves
the z-alims but imprudent orator that open-air lecture,
in Paris were contrary to law. The Englishman ro
sisted, and said that his object was pacific. The offilii
replied that they did not question the excellence of io
motives, but that no person could deliver haranguesm,
the public thoroughfare without a permission from rot
Prefect of Police, and they requested him politely woe
earnestly to withdraw. He replied in French," Jr ne
retire pas," on which the sergens de ville took him by "
arm arid led him away.—Galignani.
A NOBLE A CT.—A few years since a profolllifici,
mathematician died in this town, leaving a wife snide
mily unprovided for. Those who knew and esteeme'
deceased raised 6001., and invested it for the widow Ls
children in a railway. Subsequently the stock del
greatly depreciated, but the gentleman who recornalcrlr
the investment took up the shares, and paid the Ai ffi%eta
rence; that gentleman was one who never tires in 10
of benevolence and unostentatious charity, Mr. SVilliß
