HOP INTELLIGENCE.

The system of sending circulars by the several hop-
merchants to their respective customers, which is gene-
rally adopted at this season of the year for the purpose of
giving information respecting the crop of hops, being
much complained of by many persons living in the coun-
try, it has been determined by a large portion of the
merchant., in compliance with what they think will be
more satisfactory, to discontinue the. practice; and in
lieu thereof, annually to address the information through
the medium of the public papers. On the present occa-
sion there is but little to communicate. It is well known,
that for the last four month.; the plantations have been
very seriously blighted, and it is now quite certain that a
very short crop must be the result. The duty is estimated
at 34,0001. About two-thirds of the crop is picked, and
in most instances put into pockets. A part, but it is ex-
pected to be only a small portion of the crop, will no
doubt be good in quality.
