UNITED PRESB ASSOCIATION. 1 London, September 14. The hop crop in Sent is exceeding the average. The Standard considers the shortage of breadstuff's will severely tax the reserves. The decline in price will be merely temporary, being due to the inrush of new wheat. The English harvest is expected to average 28 bushels per acre. Good merinos and crossbreds are active, but the price is unchanged. Medium and faulty sorts are easier and slow of sale. Sydney, September 16.
