many of the alarms which now agitate the public

not have corn of the finest quality, we shall nut
have much reason to complain as to the quantity.

The happy change which has taken place in

wheat sheaves, and to turn their swathe corn at

CORN-EXCHANOC, OCT, 23.—We had tint few

fresh arrivals this morning. hut the supply was
equal to the demand, as buyers appear to he %rail-
ing fur further litfpplies. The few btllev made in
'Fine Wheat and U..ts were on foil as good terms
as Monday. Burley and Malt supported their
prices. In other kintls of Grain there was no
alteration.

On Monday a mad dog, in the road near the Ent
India Dock, bit two sheep, and several other thugs;
Ice also' bit the horse of, Mr. TA,THAU, surgeon of
Poplar, and t‘vo children ; one of them, a luly•
Mr. 'l'., %vim was in his chaise, took wi!li him im•
meth:Au:lr to his house, and used the best known
means to prevetit the horrid effects. It is hoped
that all persons in that neighbourhood ,vho hilYe

time. There is an excellent regulation in many
parts of the continent, by .vhich no dogs are suffer-

who, besides being annoyances, are, ds in the pre-
sent case, highly dangerons.
