HOP INTELLIGENCE.

WORCESTER HOP-MARKET, Saturday.—The im-
proved and correct taste, which has for the last few
years induced the public to prefer a sparkling light
ale to the heavy muddy mass which was formerly
vended, has caused such an increasing demand for
Worcester hops, the beautiful flavour and the deli-
cate bitter of which are so peculiarly suited for the
first class of pale ale, that our growth is eagerly
bought up immediately it comes to hand ; and at
this day's market, the fourth since the crop came in,
including the fair-day,, fine: and choice qualities
have really become scarce and 3s. to 4s. dearer,
whilst the demand appears to increase, and it is
evident that the growth of our choice qualities re-
quires to be extended.

RETFORD HOP FAIR.--North Clay hops were
offered at from 70s. to 84s. per cwt., yearlings £5
per cwt. Mid and East Kent were offered at from
60s. to 112 s. per cwt. Weald of Kent, of which
only a few were exhibited by sample, were offered
at from 60s. to 755. per cwt. _

MAIDSTONE, Oct. 7.—The hop picking is now
brought to a close, after a season of unprecedented
fine weather, the hoppers not losing an hour's time.
There have been within the last few days several
country sales, at good paying prices. The golding
sorts are in great demand, and, no doubt, will realise
an ample compensation to the planters. The duty
has still a downward tendency ; and £250,000
meets with a few backers, at evens.
EDENBRIDGE, Oct. 6.—This week will bring the
hop-picking to a close, and we shall have a good
crop. The hops have kept their colour, and come
down exceedingly well. The growth generally is
over the estimate of good quality, and will be about
12 cwt. per acre.
rRANT, Oct. 6.—The hop-picking is now brought
to a close ; and the samples, both for colour and
quality, are above the average of years. Great
care has been taken in the picking and curing ; and
the weather has been suitable in every respect.
The average growth will be about 13 cwt. per acre.
and prices unremunerative.

GOMM:MST, Oct. 7.—Picking is, we believe, now
completed ; and, speaking generally, the hops have
maintained their colour well. About 12 or 13 cwt.
the acre is at present thought to be the average
here. Can speak more confidently next week.
Duty, £240,000.
NORTHAM, Oct. 7.—We are now enabled to give
the correct average of our growth of hops ,which
is 151 cwt. per acre, of 1,200 hills. Judging
from what we saw of the hops before picking
commenced, we should say but few parishes will
yield so high an average as this. Many of our later
samples were brown and diseased ; consequently,
better prices :will be obtained for bright, sound
samples, which will be comparatively scarce. No
doubt the dealers and consumers will do their best
to get the best samples at the present low prices ;
let the growers be awake to this. Duty, £240,000.
UDIMORE, Oct. 7.—We have now brought the
hop-picking to a close. In some plantations the
yield will be over a ton to the acre, and in some
grounds much less. Taking the whole parish, it is
probable that about 18 cwt. to the acre will be
about the average.
HALSTEAD, Oct. 7.—Picking concluded on the
30th ult. The growth of this parish and vicinity
is about half-a-ton per acre ; the quality very good.
