new tares appearing are very small, and as much 

 as 15s. per bushel has been asked for them, which 

 dealers seem in nowise inclined to pay. New 

 carraway-seed has been exhibited remarkably fine^ 

 without having a fixed price. Canary-seed brought 

 95s. per qr. on the last Monday, but it can hardly 

 be expected to realize this on receipt of new samples. 

 Rape-seed, hemp-seed, coriander, and other seeds 

 have maintained their value, with, however, but a 

 retail demand.

HOP MARKET. 



BOROUGH, Monday, July 26.— Very Jittle business 

 doing in our market. The new growth. is reported to be pro- 

 greasing very favourably. Mease & Wild. 



MAIDSTONE, July 22.— Duricg the past few days we 

 notice an increase of vermin. Lice abound in many of the 

 plantations, but they do not as yet appear to have injured the 

 bine or the young shoots. The appearance thus far is goad, 

 and the duty goes up. Many judges are of opinion that the 

 crop will be as large, or nearly so, as in 1855, and very few, if 

 any, will bet against £230,000. Allington.— The bine is 

 looking very well, the vermin not having injured it. Hitherto 

 it has done its work. Aylesfokd. — The weather has been 

 very favourable, and the hops grow apace. A good bine, and 

 not much vermin. Artington.— Our hop plantations look 

 well for a crop. The young shoots are very promising, and 

 the bur is coming out strongly. Appearances are in favour of 

 a heavy duty. Otham. — Our hops still improve ; the biue 

 is strong, and although backward at first, it now throws out 

 good healthy shoots. The bur is coming out and thus far 

 looks well. Boxley. — Since the late rains the hop grounds 

 have greatly improved, but we find vermin at places. — Beak- 

 STED. — Our hop plantations are looking well; the bine ia 

 strong and healthy. The weather has of late been in our 

 favour, and we look for a large crop. — Sussex Express.
