BOROUGH HOP.

Tho hop trade is quiet. Fine parcels, however, are firm
in price; but the value of inferior produce is somewhat
easier. Although some districts have suffered slightly
from blight, the general condition of the plant is highly
satisfactory, and there appears every probability of a full
average crop. The imports into London last week con-
sisted of 92 bales from Boulogne, 48 from Dunkirk, 10
from Hamburg, and 480 bales from New York.

LONDON, MONDAY, JULY 30, 1866.

A very important undertaking was inaugurated
on Saturday, a work which we may hope will long
outlive the wars and tumults now engrossing men's
thoughts, and will bear an enduring record of the
skill and enterprise of our engineering science. The
,embankment of the Thames is no new subject of
interest, and on the northern side of the river it has
progressed rapidly within the last year or two. On
Saturday, however, the Completion of the great
work might be fairly foreseen, for the event of the
day was the laying of the foundation stone of the
Southern Embankment. Ever since last September,
when the first pile was driven, the work has been
actively going on, and the preparations for com-
mencing the embankment have been pushed forward
vigorously. The contractor, Mr. WEBSTER, has
undertaken to complete his contract in two years,
and its amount is £309,000. The Southern Em-
bankment is to consist of river wall and embank-
ment for a length of 4,300 feet from Westminster-
bridge to Gun House-alley, with landing stairs at
Westminster-bridge, a carriage and footway, forming
a direct thoroughfare, GO feet wide, from Westmin-
ster-bridge to Vauxhall. A paved promenade for
foot passengers is to be constructed on the top of
the embankment wall and in front of the new
St. Thomas's Hospital. This is to be approached
by a fine flight of steps at "Westminster, and extend
a distance of 2,000 feet to Lambeth Palace. The car-
riage way from Stangate will be along the line of
the present Palace-road by the river-side to High-
street, Vauxhall. The new hospital will form no
unimportant part of the architectural design, and
will consist of seven blocks of buildings joined by
corridors and passages. Mr. TITE, M.P., who had
the honour of laying the first stone of the Embank-
ment, is also one of the Governors of the Hospital,
and it is to he hoped that he will see both these
great works carried to a successful termination.
The speeches on the occasion were interesting
and appropriate. Mr. TITE, standing upon the
stone which he had just laid in its proud position,
delivered an address, and invested the spot on which
tliey were then assembled with something of antiqua-
rian interest, by tracing it back to the days when Nor-
man kings granted the marsh lands by the river's brink
to the see of Canterbury. The
name of Stangate,
not very significant at the present time,
was derived-
from a stone-way. The stone-way or road of
modern days has not been a very handsome or
creditable affair, and the question of the Southern
Embankment, which has been often discussed, as-
sumed fresh importance on the completion of the
grew. system of sewage. Mr. TITE, speaking for
the Board of which he is a prominent member, said
that they all felt that as that district was subject to
much inconvenience and injury by floods their
work could not be completed without the construc-
tion of the embankment. "It will extend," he
said, " to a great length, and will redeem six acres
from the river at this spot ; but higher up it Will
regulate what the French call the regime

METROPOLITAN CATTLE.

There:was a full average supply of foreign stock on offer
here to-day, in fair condition. The demand for it was
inactive, at barely late rates.
The arrivals of beasts fresh up from our own grazing
districts were moderately extensive. Those from Lincoln.
shire and Scotland came to hand in prime condition. The
receipts from other quarters were poor in quality. All
breeds met a slow inquiry, nevertheless last week's prices
were mostly supported. The best Scots and crosses sold
at 5s 6d to 5s 8d per Blbs.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton-
shire we received 1,800 shorthorns; from other parts of
England, 500 various breeds ; from Scotland, 41 Scots
and crosses ; and from Ireland, 50 oxen, &c.
The numbers of sheep were rather extensive. The qua-
lity of most breeds was by no means first-rate. Prime downs
and half-breds changed hands steadily at full quotations
viz., from 5s 10d to 6s per 81bs. All other breeds moved
off slowly, and prices had a drooping tendency.
There was only a moderate demand for lambs, the sup-
ply of which was rather limited, at late rates, which ranged
from 6s 8d to 8s per 81bs.
Calves came freely to hand, and the inquiry for them
was slow, on former terms. The top figure was 5s 4d
per 81bs.
In pigs very little was doing, at about stationary prices

most fascinating city of the world—although among
the most successful in a profession, and in a place
where success is a sure test of the highest accom-
plishments, Dr. Evans' heart is with his native
country. He is one of those citizens who abroad
reflect honour on the land of their birth, and who
are pointed to by thousands in a great city like
Paris, as au instance of what Americans can ac-
complish, and how a patriot should use the talents
with which he has been endowed.

The Cholera.

The following letter has been addressed by the
Chief Commissioner of the Poor-law Board to the
various Boards of Guardians :
" Poor-law Board, Whitehall, July 27, 1866.

" Sir,—In consequence of the outbreak of cholera,
the Poor-law Board have already transmitted to
you, for the information of the Board of Guardians,
a copy of the regulations recently issued by the
Lords of the Privy Council under the Diseases Pre-
vention Act, 1855, and the Amending Act 23d and
24th Victoria, cap. 77.
"By the provisions of the 23d and 24th of Vic-
toria, cap. 77, section 11, the vestries and district
Boards under the 18th and 19th of Victoria, cap.
120, are the authorities for carrying into execution
those regulations.
"But these statutes do not remove from the
Boards of Guardians the responsibility which the
law has imposed upon them in regard to the relief
of the destitute poor. The epidemic will necessarily
create much additional suffering, and may probably
cause a great increase of destitution among the
poorer classes in the metropolis.
" The Poor-law Board are satisfied that the guar-
dians will not relax their exertions because the ves-
tries and district boards are made responsible for
the performance of the duties created by these re-
gulations ; and that the guardians and their officers
will co-operate whenever practicable with those
authorities. _ _ .

^A"
The guardians are fully justified in calling to
their aid such medical and other assistance as in
their judgment the emergency may require.. They
can also provide those purifying and disinfecting
agents which their medical officers recornznend
such
as
requisite in the dwellings of the sick
additional sustenance or clothing as the
circumstances may render necessary In i
respects the powers and obligations then
guardians all these
bmeoidna tt ihoen to b e remain in full force. -
aein
provided for cholera patients should
" It is inexpedient that the
, the admissione of cholera
work-
house or on the workhouse premises. As far as
practicable, therefor
patients into the workhouse should be prevented.
~ The guardians should procure for themselves
and their officers the fullest and earliest informa-
tion as to the arrangements made by the vestry or
district board, so that due notice may be given to
every person who may require aid from the guar-
dians of the arrangements applicable to the case,
and how and where the requisite attention can be
obtained.

" The Poor Law Board will pay immediate atten-
tion to any communications which the guardians
may address to them, and afford them any assist-
ance in their power in the discharge of the duties
and responsibilities imposed upon them.—l am, sir,
your obedient servant,
" 4 GATIJORNE HARDY, President."

WESTMINSTER.

HORRIBLE CONDUCT OF A HAWKER.— Mary Prosegar, a
dissipated-looking woman, was charged with being drunk
and creating a disturbance, with begging and with cruelty
to her child.

The police said that the child was lying in a very shock-
ing state in the workhouse, and produced a medical certi-
ficate to that effect.

Mr. Hartley, a tailor, living in White-lane-street, Chel-
sea, was the principal witness against her, and came
forward upon public grounds. He said that on Saturday
night, at 11 o'clock, the defendant came into the Nell
Gwynne publichouse, Chelsea, and, declaring herself to be
in great distress, with six children, said she had one of
twins then in arms. Commiserating her situation, wit-
neas at last relieved her. About 20 minutes afterwards
he saw her in the streets swinging the child by the lower
part of the body. He hastened to interfere, and was
horified at the appearance of the child, which he thought
was dead. He observed the defendant was drunk, and,
determined to rescue the child, went in quest of a police-
man. On returning with one, he found the defendant
surrounded by a crowd of persons, whom she was abusing.
The child was then taken to the workhouse.
Mr. Arnold : How old is the child ?

Defendant : Four months. It was in a consumption
before it had the measles, and isn't so big now as it was
at two months.

Mr. Arnold—So, in order to take the better care of it,
you get drunk and treat it in this way ?
Defendant—lt's one of twins ; the other poor thing is
dead, and this one is following it.
Mr. Arnold—That is the greater reason why you should
treat it with kindness. _

Another witness said Finding the infant motion -
less and presenting a ghastly appearance, he said to the
to which she replied,
w mominadn,yo‘u‘ Yr obuursincehsisldanids
bdey_ing
Mr. Arnold—This is a most serious matter. I shall re-
mand you until Saturday next.

Sir G. GREY said that an order of the Privy Council
had already been issued extending the operation of the
act beyond the original term fixed until the 10th of May ;
but in consequence of information that had come to hand
from all parts of the country, they thought it was again
the duty of the Privy Council to further extend the time
beyond the 10th of May.
