CHATHAM, SEPT. :9.

Satnrday night, a cenrinepolled near•the Anchor •
hart; in the Dock yard, was alarmed by the found
sf footgeps approaching his pall—he challenged but
received no anfwer—he repeated the challenge, but
heard no found but of the forittleps Lowly approach-
ing. The alarm was paired from centinel to centi-
nel, until it reached the guard roam, from whence a
ferjeant with fame men, inftantly went to the (pot
where the alarm originated, and the challenge was
again repeated, b'it with as little attention being paid
to it as before. When every chance had been given
which any well difpnfed perfon could with for to in-
duce him to come forward, the ferjeant thought that
longer delay would be a derelietion of duty, and
therefore gave an order to fire, which was immedi-
ately complied with, and was as inftantly followed
by a deep groan. A rapid movement to the fpot
from whence the noife proceeded, form made them
acquainted with the caufe of it, and proved that the
that had done Come execution ; when lo they were
furprifed and much difappointed to find, infiead of a
lurking robber, or fecret incendiary, that a poor
barmier: cow, which had (brayed from her pafture, in
the darknefs of the night, became its- viElim. The
luckiers animal had its legs f ) feverely fluttered by
the ball, that there was a mealy for killing her in
the morning.

MONTHLY AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR SEPT.
The harveit is in general fildhed. and has been for
fosse time pall in early dill( ii9s. The finenefs of the
weather, and plenty of hand,., contributed much to
**edition and difparch. The crops of Wheat were
good : Barley and Oats much better than were ex•
pcacd. l'Jans and Peas very indifferent ; a total
failure of the latter was expeller:zed ir. fame ccunties.
Clover for feed, and fecund crop for Hay, either
gown or ready for the feythe. yield a grand fwath.
There is much land already f ,wn with . winter
tares and rye, and many acres of wheat nobbles turn-
ed in and fown with turiaips, as fpring fced for ewes
and lamb- The lands fall ,wed this fummer for

although abundantly fupplied with Welch, Se< tch,
and huffs beans, 'hewn in very fair condition, cape-
rimed dull tales : the graziers having fuffered much
lofs in feeding this (simmer, are flow and cautious in
making purehafes fir the next. Weaned foals and
cart cats fell well, a: do (mall porkers. Butter ant'
cheek are much lower at the late fairs.
. Hop picking is going on with great fpirit, and the
crop turns out better than was expelled. The winter
crops of potatoes promife well, both for cinantity and
quality. Apples, plums, !cc. have been lent to mar-
ket in great abundance.
