Deen active, While values nave presented lar
strength. Advanced prices brought out more
liberal offerings, and buyers invested freely, SO
that exporters are now pretty wei supplied at
the moment. The feeling this morning was
somewhat tame, and a softer tone prevailed. in
regard to prices. Still there was no positive
change in the figures Standard grades are quot

though in another week offerings are expected
to be of fairly liberal character Values are
nominal, ranging from DC e ID upward. REM
nants of old of passable quality are quotable at
about PC e II. Mail advices from London, un-
der date of August 18TH says; The hop har-
vest was begun yesterday III many parts of Kent
and Sussex, the continuance of fine and hot
weather having rapidly brought the crop of
earlies to maturity and condition. Reports
from the former county state that the hops came
down well and weigh heavy, but they viii re-
quire more drying than usual owing to the late
heavy dews. In one part of East Kent, where
picking was commenced yesterday, the growth
is exceptionally fine, ana it is estimated that
the yield will average from 10 cwt to u cwt per
acre The hops are wonderfully free from YER
min, and although mold is to be seen the attack
is not sufficient 10 excite any alarm. The gen.
eral quality is superb"

FRUIT - Raspberries and Blaekberries are
about out of market. Melons and Cantaloupes
come to hand freely, but low asking prices con-
tinue to invite liberal custom, SO that consign-
meut; quickly pass from first hands. Apples
move slowly. the demand being most wholly lor

range, there being less trouble to sell desirable
product at top figures than poor stock at the

BUTTER-There is no established price for
fancy lots Stock of this character is very light.
Scarcely one box in twenty OF the arrivals can be
so classed. As a consequence sellers can about
name their own figure. custom is quick for fancy
diaries at our quotation, while competition from
buyers often results in yet better prices beingob

it may not be strictly accurate to give
that sum as the ruling price, it is

very scarce, and holders insist on full figures.

WOOI-The Wool trade is not very active
locally, considering the strength developed in
the recent London sales. There is. however a
liberal share of business being done and all
parties here interested in the Wool trade seem
to feel that Wool will for some time to come be
less liable to violent fluctuations in price than
have obtained the past two or three years Re-
