to recover the balance' olviages due to him a the
time of his deeease. The cause was tried the Sit-
tin,g to this Term,. hefore Sir JAMI 4 itiromfELD,
at Guildhall, when it 'WI3 clearly proved that a ba-
lance of 141. W<<3 due to the Plaintiff, over and above
the sum of 91. whii:h had been paid by the Defend—
ant, as the full athoiint of Wages duo, into the office

for the purpose of receiving the amount of wages
due to seamen in the West India trade who itiv. die
on the voyage, and paying it out to their administra-

IV Bradford' Fair, on Morttlar sennight-, the show
of horhes was small, and good ones sold we11.6-those
of an inferior kind
.had a -good sale : _there was a
,considerable quantity of pigs, whichp,in general,
fetched good prices—the place was' filled with more
company than with ever known on a similar bcca:
Sion.

Stamford Cdr pus 'Christi Fair, on Monday sc'tt-
night, was better attended than ever Ittinlribered.
Thdshow of beasts Inc-1 sheep was large, and the
prices of such as ware not immediately marketable
for the butcher, were considerably lower than at the
Midlent Fair. The prices asked for horses continuo
excessive.

A few days a;o Mr. Christopher Gard ham, of Shef-
field, walked two mikes on the Manchester rol,d -tor
a considerable wager, iii twenty minutes. He per-
formed it with great ease, and.was allowed twenty-
two minutes.

Monday se'nnight, the chief Fair atßeslay,-Cuni-
herlanti, was nuim.Tot.i.ily attended', A greater num-
ber al:flack cat* was seldom seetrim a similar oc—
easion,
,but. met wits only, a slow %tie. Burou,,xll7
bridge Fair' being so near, induced the horse-dealers
to demand very eorbitantirices fir good hork,s,
having great expeadtions of meeting with a brisk
Sale there.

Friday se'nnight, 'as some children were playing
in a farm-yard allurton,'in Wirral", Cheshire, one
of them, a boy about five years of age, fell into a
new made draw-well, 27 yards deep ; one of his Com-
panions ran and told his father, who' had just left
the spot for dinner, 'when he, accompanied by his
wife and another woman, returned to the place, the
women attempted to let the father down in a small
bucket, brit when about halfway he was precipitated
to the bottom ; what is very extraordinary, though
only one yard of water in the 'well, they were drawn
out without the least injury, • excepting a, swelling in
the eyes and head of the boy.
