CORN MARKET, MARK LAIRT, OCTOBER EL+
There are not many arrivals of Wheat to day, which
is in but middling fupply, and this trade remains as
of late, at a gradual redultion in price—Barley is
higher—Malt as our IRAs tome very fine new at
Bos. per quarter—White Peas at lefs—Beans keep
their prices—Oats are in tolerable fupply, and rather
cheaper—Flour as our lall—Fine American 345. to
375. per barrel.

In the dramatic world, it muft be an extraordinary
good performance that can fupport, throughout, the
attention of an audience. The Lottery Drama,
which commenced yefterday morniny, for the pre
feat feafon, at Cooper's Hall, was of this fuperior
defcription. Its great intereft confifled in an almoft
uninterrupted announcement of Prizes through the
Day's Drawing—and which intereft will be equally
great on Friday next, and, indeed, on every fuccef-
five day of performance, from there not being Two
Blanks to a Prize.

Riorr ir YORK.--A fracas took place in York laft
Saturday re'nnight. A party of the Leeds Volunteers
had been Cupping with Come of their friend% and were
returning to their quarters early in the morning, when
tkey were met by a number of fellows, principally
dreffed as failors, armed with bludgeons, upon Oufe
Bridge, who, without any provocation, commenced
a furious attack upon the Volunteers. The affailsnts
had greatly the advantage in point of numbers, and
a man, with his face smeared with blood, ran up to
the officers' mefs-houfe, which he entered, crying,
" For Gun's fake come to the affinance of your men,
or they'll be murdered." Captain JacKsoN rushed
out immediately, and was followed by feveral others
of the officers. The Captain difarmed two of the
bludgeon-men, but a third ftruck him on the head,
and infliEted a severe contuflon, and a fourth gave
him fo violent a blow, as to break his (word-arm.
While this was paffing, feveral of the afrailants were
brandifking the fide-arms, which they had taken from
the Volunteers, and cne of them made a thruft at
Lieutenant LEPAGE* but he received the point of the
bayonet with.the hilt of bis (word. By this time the
ruffians found that they were likely to meet with a
warmer reception than they had anticipated, and
decamped; but not till many of them had received
filch a leffon of falutary chadifement, as will probably
improve their future manners. Almon from the tuft
day that stre Volunteers entered York, fellows of the
above defcription, and who are known not to be real
tailors, but who have affirmed the difguife for party
purpofes, arifing out of the late eleaien, offered them
infults ; and when the drums went their rounds at
night, they were always to be found roaring after them
Blue ! Blue

One of the above gang was examined at the Man-
fion•houfe on Monday fennight, charged with an
attempt to fire a piftol at the Lord Mayor, while
in the execution of his office. The powder only
llAffied in the pan, and the piftol did not explode.—
On exunining the contents it was found that the pillol
did not contain a ball, but a cartridge fecurely made
tip had been fubtlituted. The man was remanded
for further examination.
