BOROUGII HOP.
Accounts from the plantations speak of steady improve-
ment,especially in such grounds as have been well culti-
vated.
From the Continent the reports generally aro
satisfactory. Tho trade at the Borough to-day was want-
ing in activity, and to force sales lowor rates had to be
submitted to. The imports into London last week con-
sisted of 9 bales from A ntvrorp, 19 Boulogne, 111 Irani-
burg, 30 Calais, 45 Konigsburg, 197 Ostend, 82 Rotterdam,
and 26 bales from Dunkirk.
