SHIPMENT OF GRAIN IN THE COUNTY OF SUTH-
ERLAND.—On Wednesday last Mr. T. Mackelize, corn mer•
chant, Beauly—who has been in the habit of purchasing
grain extensively- in Sutherlandshire for the last fourteen
years—shipped a cargo of Barley at the Little Ferry, with-
out the least obstruction. As yet no riots have been at-
tempted in that county, and, we are glad to learn, there is no
probability of any taking place, the Duke having provided
so liberally for the people. After the shipment was com-
pleted, Mr. Mackenzie treated those assisting him with a
bumper of "Royal Brackla," when success to Mr. 1.1141 C.., and
the safe arrival of the vessel at her destination, was drunk
with cheers.—Ross-shire Adrertiser.
