SEVERAL PERSONS BITTEN BY A MAD DOG.-
Ou Tuesday, a mad dog was at large in the neighbourhood
of Sheffield, and bit a number of persons. Amongst them
was a man named Smith, a newspaper agent • the dog
sprang at his throat and bit him in the face, inflicting a
frightful wound. Seven other persons were attacked by
the animal, and six of them were bitten. It was eventually
destroyed.

THE FOOT AND MOUTH DlSEASE.—Notwithstand-
ing the greatest precautions, the spread of the foot-and-
mouth disease among the cattle at the Agricultural Hall
has been very rapid. Only four have been allowed to
leave for the country, in _pursuance of the order issued on
Tuesday, and it is probable that a great many will be
slaughtered in London, to prevent their being taken to the
country, and so spreading the disease.

On Ar ednesday the Lord Bishop of Oxford distri-
buted the prizes to the successful pupils' of King Alfred's
Grammar School, Wantage. The vicar of the parish and
other clergy were present, and many parents and friends
of the scholars. His lordship having read the report of
the examiner, remarked on the very satisfactory state of
the school which revealed the thoroughness, accuracy,
and good style of the work done, concluding his address
with a few kind and appropriate words to the boys them-
selves.

WELSH POLITICAL EVICTIONS.—It Will be re-
membered that after the last general election the manner
in which some of the Conservative landlords ericted their
tenants for voting in the Liberal interest created great
indignation throughout the Principality, and it was
determined to raise a fund for the relief of those wlio had
suffered pecuniarily. The movement is now ahast com-
plete, about £3,800 having been collected in Wales, Liver-
pool, Manchester, and London. Of this amount £1,936 was
raised by private subscriptions, and the balance was col-
lected in the Nonconformist chapels of Wales and the
adjoining counties. Twenty shillings in the pound has
been given in all cases where satisfactory proof has been
adduced of eviction for political feeling. In Cardiganshire
63 claimants have been compensated by a grant of £2,090;
in Carmarthenshire, 21 claimants have received £690 ; in
Carnarvonshire, £450 has been distributed among 25
applicants. One claimant in Denbeighshire has received
£l5, and two in. Merionethshire £14.0.,
