CORN MARATS.

There was an advance in the price of grain, at
Carlifle market, on Saturday laft. The fupply
was very feanty; owing, probably, to the finenefs
of the day.

BURY, SEPT. t6.—The harvefl being finished in
this part of the kingdom, our market wa§ this day
moll abundantly fupplied with famples of Wheat,
which caufed a redation of Bs. per quarter fence
lall week:—Prices were—Wheat, Bos. to ;
Barley, 365. to 465.; Oats, 175. to ass. per

LYNN, in Nciarout.—Our harveft has been the
belt that we ever knew; the greater part of our
growers have finithed Tome days without an hour's
interruption by bad weather, although Tome few
of the very large farmers, and thofe more parti-
cularly in the Fens, have Rill (as is always the
cafe) Tome to get in. Wheat in particular is of
fuperior fine quality, and we confider it will weigh
upon the average an excefs of 6olb. per bufhel.
The crop is certainly good, exceeding a fair aver.
age one, as more acres were Town than ever were
known before, and by taking the weight into eili-
mation we mutt elleem it fully double to the crop'
l
of IA year.
NEWCASTLE, SEPT. 12.—0 n Saturday laft there
was a greater quantity of wheat in the market here
than there has before been for a long time ; indeed,
nearly half the length of Pilgrim•Rreetwas crowded
with carts : the bell new Wheat fetched about 905.
per quarter in the morning ; but towards the dole
of the market it fell 16s. or 18s. lower.—The par-
ties who govern the London market are playing
off the old manccuvre—llinting the fupply to tome-
what lefs than the denumsl; but the abundant
harveft both at home and abroad, will defeat their
object. The Sound Lifts of Auguft 21 and 25,
mention the paifage of 24 veffels from the Baltic
for this country with grain. The bounty given
by Gdvernment mull amount to a very great firm.
One cargo of Wheat which fold for only 12001.
received 6041. of debenture.

Dr. Hicciws, who about five years fine was
invited to go out to Jamaica for the purpofe of
improving the art of making fugar, has recently
returned to England, for a time.
There was the large(' (hew of cattle at Malden
fair, on Monday and Tuefday that has been
known for many years pall ; but the prices of beans
were held up fo high, that none of the principal
graziers would buy, erpetting that the continuing
dry weather mull bring them down. Sheep and
lambs fold freely and well. Some South Down
{heading wethers fetched as high as aos. a head ;
wether lambs 265. and ewe ditto ass.

Cattle having fold at Tome late fairs for very
high prices, people in general are forming refolu-
lions to refrain from veal and lamb, fo that the
live-flock of the country may be encreafed.
The General Meeting of the Weftern Agricul-
tural Society for the (hew of prize cattle and fheep,
held at Petworth on Thurfday laft, was numer-
oufly and refpeetably attended. The cattle exhi-
bited for the prizes were of a fuperior and
commanded the admiration of all the bell inform.
ed amateurs prefent. The fheep did not rank fo
high in eftimation, the bell that were (hewn there
being much inferior to the worn that were exhi-
bited there in Auguft 'all, not indeed owing to
any deficiency of agricultural knowledge in the
Weftern breeders, but to a want of the South•
downs, by which the Eaftern flocks are fo ellen-
tially benefited, and in confequence of which the
Society has refolved in future to difcontictue the
premiums for fheep.

A moll interefting and magnificent piece was
Lift night brought out at the Royal Circus, St.
George's Fields, for the benefit of Mr. CROSS,
named KM: Csfar, or the Negev Slaves, which yield-
ed the utmoft gratification to a !ma crowded au-
dience. The Story is interefting in the higher' de-
gree, the laft fcene between little Itiaxo the blind
boy, and SestaA his filler, is peculiarly affeEting.
The fcenery is charming. The mufic with the
Indian overture, the airs, &c. by Mr. W. WARE,
univerfally admired. The dances by Mifs ADAMS,
and Mifs DENNY, cannot be excelled; the dreffes
and manners of the natives are finely preferved,
and the ceremony of Mumbo jumbo produces a
wonderful effect—The charaCters were admirably
fupported throughout, and no doubt this produc-
tion will continue to draw the soft overflowing
affemblage of admirers every evening.
Mr. Bafham, a collar-maker at Holt, fell from
his horfe on Monday fe'nnight, and was found
lying in the road the next morning. He died on
Th'irfday in confequence of the injury he received.
Some nights (ince a gentleman who was return-
ing to town on the Kingfland road, in confequence
of- his horfe taking fright, was thrown off, and
his foot hanging in the flirrup, was dragged a
confiderable diftance, by which accident he had
one of his legs broken, and was otherwife much
bruifed.

We beg leave to caution the Public to fccure
the tops of their bottles, as feveral attempts have
been made of late to force a way in by palling over
the roofs of other houfes. On Thurfday night- the
houfe of Mr. CHAINPNEY, in Cheapfide, was at-
tempted to be broke open by lime villains, who
fucceeded by an iron crow to force open a lirong
door at the top of his houfe. Fortunately there
was an inner door (fill lironger, which they were
attempting to force and cut, but were heard by
two Ladies who flept immediately under. On ex-
amining the tops of the houfes near, it fsems they
had "come over at leaf twenty houfes, anZ had got
to the top of an uninhabited hook in a court in
Yoder-lane.
