WATERFORD.--During October the principal
employment was digging potatoes, and sowing seed wheat
in fallow grounds, which are in great state of forwardness,
and would be more so, if the heavy rain had not at intei-
vals retarded their progress. However, it may be expected
that the potatoes will be dug and secured in sufficient time V-
fore the frost. This most valuable root is abundant in pro-
duce, and excellent in quality, almost without a parallel.
Al-
though the sowing of wheat in fallow grounds is a little hil-
-1 paled, in consequence of the heavy wet, still farmers generally
sow it every dry hour and day, so that it will be accomplished
before the potatoe ground is prepared for the reception of seed
wheat, which it may be expected will shortly commence to be
sown. Farmers are also busily engaged in ploughing stubble,
ditching, hedging, accumulating manure, threshing corn, and
diposing of it, and accomplishing several other minor opee-
rations.
GAMESTERS APPREHENDED.—We are glad to
hear that the "'Mayor of Newcastle-upon-Tyne has been
acting with a vigilance and spirit highly creditable to him.
and serviceable to the cause of virtue. On Monday
night last he was informed that a gaming-house had been opened
in Pilgrim-street, under the direction of two or three Strangers,
and he accordingly dispatched Mr. Scott, . the Town Ser-
jeant, and Assistants, to the place. When they arrived
there were several persons in the room, all of whom, along with _
the conducts rs of the gaming-table, were taken into custody.
There were found on the table one hundred sovereigns and
one 'writhed half-crowns, all of which were secured. The
foreigners were committed to prison ; the gamesters were oblig-
ed to give bail for their appearance ; and the owner of the hotese
was fined ten pounds. This example, we hope, will be foliGw-
ea all over the kingdom, till those pests to society are extin-
guised for ever.-4 YoHr Herald.)
On Wednesday evening four horses were as
usual brought to the door of the White Hart Inn, Chippen-
ham, to be in readiness for the arrival of the White Lion Day
Coach ; but being left to themselves fora moment, 'they set a
at a quick pace towards the Bath road ; near the Chippen -
ham bar one. of them was stopped by a boy, who -mounted it
and went in pursuit of the others, but his endeavours to stop
them being ineffectual, they proceeded on at full trot, till they
came to Bath Easton, where the horse rode' by the boy, .ran
against a waggon, and both were knocked down. The horse's
shoulder was much injured, but the boy fortunately escaped
without injury. One of the others was stopped near Grosvenor- .
place, whilst the two remaining .horses ran on uninterrupted -till
they came to the I'Vhite Lion in this city, where they stopped
of their own accord, and were followed by the two others
, who were led in shortly after. Their arrival in this unusual
manner caused no small surprise to the by-standers, which was
I not explained till the arrival of the coach at its usual time,, with
another set of horses. These spirited animals performed'their
journey within the hour. The turnpike gates were all open,
• but there is little doubt the noble animals would have cleared.
them had they been closed.—( Bath Herald.)
