Hop Growing in Kansas.

Kansas is promising production. The
bloody fights and raids which accompa-
MED its beginning now give way to
peaceful agriculture, and since it is es-
tabIished that slave labor shall not be
permitted there, it is being proved what
free labor can do.
1t has been discovered that hops are
an indigenous product Of the State;
that they grow wild, and need nothing
but gathering. The quantity and quail
ity arc both improved by culture, but
without either there is very considera-
yield. A Mr.. Sponable, who was rais-
ed among the abundant hop plantations
Of New York, writes that he g has seen
more hops grow wild in this { johnson
county, part of Kansas than l ever saw
in the State Of New York. They are
larger, and when used side by side with
hop sent from New York, l find the
wild variety the best. I gathered
bushel by the roadside last fall in fifteen
minutes, and they were large. Land
can be bought here for from 81 to $40
an acre, all covered with hops. We
have home market, and might supply
the East. No person here thinks Of the
hop business. Men might make ten or
more dollars per day, through Septem-
Der and October, picking hops, without
one cent Of capital, as the land lies in
commons, in tracts Of many thousand
acres.'
Hop culture has grown to such i'm
portancc in this country and in Europe
that the profits Of cultivation, where the
native capacity is so great, must be very
important. The increasing demand has
stimulated production in regions where
the disadvantages are many, and where
the whole crop is sometimes lost. If,
through any considerable portion Of
Kansas, what is reported true Of john
son county is also true, the settlers there
have mine Of wealth at their command,
not less certain than would be a mine of
gold. In Europe, the valleys Of the
valleys Of the finest rivers are appropri-
ated to this agriculture. The same de-
mand will be found in America, and as
great profit ran be realized, since our
domestic consumption is large and at
low prices we may export to all the
shores of the Atlantic. -Phiiadeipha0

1t is slated here, on what is understood
to be good authority, that there Is no i'm

Important movements are in progress In
the Middle Department which It would be
highly improper to mention at this time.
With Genrral Grants army the situs-
tion is daily assuming importance. The
most active preparations are in progress,
and military operations cannot long be de-
lsyed. It is well known that General
Grant has been reinforced heavily, and he
Eill soon receive still greater aceessions to
his command. A period not far distant
has been fixed by him for grand move
RichmOndward, which well informed mill
tsry men assert cannot fail Of success.
