HOPS.

Price of Hops, per Cwt. in the Borough.

Monday, Sept. 11.-The supply of new Hops last week has not been so large as would have been, owing to the state of the weather. On Saturday rather more doing, and at an advance of 3s. to 5s. currency.-New Sussex, 84s. to 95s.; Kent, 81s. to 112s. to 126s.

Maidstone, Sept. 7.-Our planters are all busy in picking; and as far as can be calculated, from these few days, the produce will be fully equal to what it was laid at. We had a great deal of rain this week with some wind, but it does not appear to have done any harm to the Hops Duty, called 250,000l.!

Worcester, Sept. 6.-We had between 300 and 400 pockets of New Hops at market on Saturday; 303 were sold averaging 85s. to 95s.; fine, 100s. Of Old 50 were sold; 1825's, 75s. to 85s. It is expected that 1500 or 2000 New pockets will be at market on Saturday; it has seldom happened that so large a quantity of New Hops has been brought in so early. The quality is excellent.

Monday, Sept. 11.-The arrivals from Ireland last week were $789 firkins of Butter, and 576 bales of Bacon; and from Foreign Ports, 8876 casks of Butter.

* Dalkeith and Haddington are given by the boll.-The Scotch boll for Wheat, Rye, Pease, and Beaus, is three per cent. more than 4 bushels. The boll of Barley and Oats, is about 6 bushels Winchester, or as 6 to 8 compared with the English quarter.

Liverpool, Sept. 5.-With reference to the late Order in Council, as appeared in the Gazette of the 1st instant, I would now observe, that the quantities of those articles, (therein contained), now in the docks and in bond, are but trivial, say about 18,000 quarters of Oats; 1,504 quarters of Beans; 676 quarters of Rye; and about 200 quarters of Pease: but this sudden change of the Corn Laws has, as might be expected, unsettled the Corn trade here for a time, and in consequence, at this day's market, a complete stagnation prevailed, and few, or no material, sales were effected, although most descriptions of Grain might have been bought at a decline from late prices.

Imported into Liverpool from the 29th Aug. to 4th Sept., 1826, inclusive: -Wheat, 21,910; Barley, 600; Oats, 3,227; Malt, 1,118; Beans, 674; and Pease, 191 quarters. Flour 224 sacks, per 280 lbs. Oatmeal, 396 packs, per 240 lbs. American Flour, 18 barrels.

Guildford, Sept. 9.-Wheat, old, 127. to 177. 10s.; ditto, new, for mealing, 15. to 16. 15s. per load. Rye, 52s. to 56s.; Barley, 30s. to 36s.; Oats, 28s. to 37s.; Beans, 48s. to 56s.; and Pease, grey, 54s. to 56s. per quarter.

Norwich, Sept. 9.-We had a good supply of Wheat at market to-day and the demand not being great, 2s. per quarter lower was submitted to, Prices of Red from 48s to 54s.; White, 57s. The supply of Barley was exceedingly large, and sold from 30s. to 36s.; Oats, 24s. to 31s.; Beans, 38s. to 41s.; Pease, 38s. to 42s; Boilers, to 54s. per quarter; and Flour, 43s. to 44s. per sack.

Supplies very moderate.-Wheat from 58.6d. to 78. 9d.; Barley, 3s. 9d. to 5s. 9d.; Oats, 2s. 74d. to 3s, 9d.; Beans, 4s. 9d. to 7s. 44d.; and Malt, 5s. 6d. to 8s. 6d. per bushel, Imperial. Flour, Seconds, 32s. to 45s, per bag.

Ipswich, Sept. 9.-We had to-day a large supply of both Barley and Wheat, which were both 1s. to 2s. per quarter lower. Prices as follow:-Wheat, 52s. to 58s.; Barley, 33s, to 37s.; and Pease, 46s. per qr.

Manchester, Sept. 9.-The sudden, but partly anticipated, change in the measures adopted by Ministers, for the admission of bonded Oats, Rye, Beans, Pease, and Oatmeal, for immediate consumption; and the further importation of those articles has occasioned a complete stagnation in the trade. To-day we had a fair attendance of town and country dealers, but the business transacted was very trifling. Wheat has declined 4d. per bushel, and scarcely any sales made at that reduction.-Oats are fallen in value 1s. per 45 lbs., which induced some buyers to purchase rather freely. -Barley and Beans cannot be quoted with any degree of accuracy, and our currency is merely presumed.-Flour moves off heavily, and is is. to 28. per bag lower.-Oatmeal (through the great depression in Oats) has given way &s. per load.--Wheat, English, 57s. 8d. to 62s. 10d.; Irish, 57s. 1d. to 64s. 7d.; Canadian, (duty paid,)59s. 5d. to 62s. 10d.; Foreign, ditto, 56s. to 59s. 5d.; Barley, 36s. 1d. to 40s.; Oats, Irish, 26s. 8d. to 31s. 5d. per quarter, Winchester; Beans, English, 5Ss. to 55s.; Irish, 49s. to 54s. per qr. 63 lbs. per bushel. Malt, 38s to 50s. per load of six Imperial bushels. Flour, 48s. to 50s.; Irish, 48s. to 50 per bag of 280 lbs.; Barrel Flour, 46s. to 50s. Oatmeal, 28s. to 42s. per load of 240 lbs.

COUNTRY CATTLE AND MEAT MARKETS, &c.

Norwich Castle Meadow, Sept. 9.-We had only a few lots of about three parts fat Cattle at market to-day; prices of the best 8s. per stone of 14 lbs. sinking offal. The supply of Store Stock was large, but of an inferior description. Scot sold from 4s. to 4s. 6d. per stone, when fat. Short Horns, 3s. to 4s. Cows and Calves a very flat sale. The supply of Sheep and Lambs was good. Shearlings sold from 24s. to 29s., fat ones to 41s.; Stock Down Ewes to 31s. 6d. Lambs from 13s. to 19s. Pigs cheaper.

Manchester, Sept. 6.-There was a large supply of Cattle to-day, which, owing to the late rains, those well fed met a trifling advance and brisker sale. Lean Cattle were very difficult to quit. Sheep and Lambs plentiful and rather dearer.-Beef, 41d. to old.; Mutton, 44d. to 54d.; Lamb, 4d. to 5d.; Veal, 5d. to 7d.; and Pork, 34d. to 5d. per lb. sinking offal.
