CORN EXCHANGE, Nov. 9.

Our supply of Wheat was tolerably large this
morning from Essex, Kent, and Suffolk, and hav-
ing had also considerable arrivals from abroad
since this day week, caused a heavy sale for that
article, but fine qualities support the prices of last
Monday. Barley is 4s, lower than on this thy
se'nnight, but less sale than on Ft iday. The sup-
ply from our own coast being small, and chiefly
consisting of what remained over last day, Oats
are 2a. per quarter dearer than on last Monday.
In Pease, Beans, and other articles, no altera-
tion. The following are the Importations during
last week :

SMITHFIELD, Not'. 9.

Our Market of this day was abundantly supplied
with all kinds of prime Cattle, the sales for Beet
were readily effected at much lower prices than on
Friday, although there was a great supply of
Beasts at that day's market ; the Trade in Mutton
was very brisk this morning, but prices could not
be made at lower terms than last week ; Pork was
cheaper, but not much trade in that article ; Veal
remains nominal, as per last quotation. The bu-
siness in the Hay Market still continues dull, there
being very few purchasers at market ; Hay sold
this morning full 3s. per load cheaper than on
Friday ; Clover, of the best samples, retains last
week's prices, but the inferior descriptions were
9s. per load cheaper; in Straw there was a little
business doing, and that article went off at 3s.
per load cheaper than on Friday. The annexed is
a correct statement of the numbers and prices at
Market.

DANDIES.—A great disturbance took place in
.he Tower about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon,
in consequence of the appearance of one at those
Gent!erne', railed " Dandies," among the company
who assembled on the promenade to bear the mili-
tary hand. The " Dandy," whose cheeks were
highly painted, was pushed from side to side, and
ar last, was so roughly handled, that be was
obliged to seek protection from the soldiers. Our
Correspondent, who was present, informs us,
'hat the same person appeared on the public walk,
in the Tower, yesterday week, when the people
threatened to pull off Iris stays, &c. His re-
appearance yesterday increased their disgust
and indignarion. He was received with hisses
from both sexes, and would have been driven from
the walk, had he not sought shelter in the guard-
room. Several hundred persons were present.
On Tuesday last, as Mr. CoNGREVE, brother to
Sir Wm CosrGuEsra, and ti —o.olle. ..ANMER, were
nut shooting in the neighbourhood of Beech-hill,
near Reading, in crossing a field the gun of the
former accid-ntally went off, and the charge un-
fortunately lodged in the elbow of Colonel HAN-
MER. At first no serious danger was apprehend,
ed. A mortification followed, iro‘.ever, and we
are concerned to state that Coloncl HANMER
breathed his last on Friday night. It is impossi-
ble to describe the sensations of Mr. CostGßEva
at this lamentable event.
MURDER IN HERTFORDSHIRE.—On/Wednesday
last an Inquisition was taken at Broxbourne, on
the body of John Cooper, who was found mur-
dered on the preceding evening, at Spittlehrook-
hill. Cooper had been in the habit, for a consi-
derable time past, of bringing packages of fruit to
London in a chaise-cart, and returning the same
evening, generally with a considerable stun of
money, arisill from the sale of his fruit. On
Tuesday night, about nine o'clock, upon his re-
turn from one of these joarnies, he called at the
White Horse public-house, at Wortnley. Several
labouring men were there, but it was not ob-
served that they took any particular notice of
Cooper. He continued in the house only a few
minutes, and then resumed his journey towards
home. The bloody deed was perpetrated within
a few minutes after his departure from the White
Horse. About half-past nine o'clock he was dis-
covered lying dead on the ground in the middle of
the road, at Spittlebrook-hill, near the village of
Broxbourne, within the distance of a mile from
the White Horse ; Iris arms were extended, and
his breeches pocket on the right side was turned
inside out. He was conveyed to the Bull-inn, at
Broxbonrne, and a surgeon was immediately sent
tor, who, upon examining his person, discovered
that !tt dreadful wound had been inflicted on the
forehead; the skull was fractured, and the instru-
ment which had been used for the purpose (appa-
rently a hammer) had penetrated the brain. His
pockets were completely rifled ; nothing but a
few papers were found upon his person. The
horse and cart were discovered at the distance of
about a hundred yards from the body ; the front
of the cart was sprinkled with blood, Tire Jury
returned a Verdict of—Wilful Murder against some
person or persons unknown.

On Saturday se'nnight almost the whole inha-
bitants of Anuan were spectators of a scene which
must have been in the highest degree gratifying
to their feelings,—the launch of the first vessel
ever built at that port. The fine sloop Annan,
registered 38 tons harden, was launched from the
stocks at Annan Well, and reached her native
element amidst the cheers of hundreds, who testi-
fied by their enthusiasm that they regarded the
event as an earnest of the future prosperity of the
place.
