DUZL PREVENTED.--A dispute Rinse in the lobby

Stock Exchange, and Mt. K—, of the Tea Trade, and
the parties met yesterday morning, but, through the
interference of the seconds, the matter w as made up.

The harvest this year will be as early a., that of
1778, when wheat began to be cut yin the 14th of
July, and corn of all kinds was housed betote the end
of August.
In about a fortnight, it is supposed, that the wheat
harvest will be pretty general in Devonss.ire ; in every
direction the wheat is uncommonly fine, and promises
an abundant produce.
Thursday. a field of barley was cut down on Mr.
WILSON'S farm at Clintery, Aberdeenshiie. It was
quite ripe and well filled, but had been sown in the
autumn, and was to be milled immedi rtely. it being
expected to ii.ake a great return of o,eal.
In Stafford Mal ket, on Saturday, Mr. HA RDI NO; of
Acton, produced a sample 'of new barley !
On board the Ansel ican ship Metrot (Capt. CoBB)
which sailed from New York on the 24th of May,
and arrived at Liverpool on the 24th of June, they
had radishes to eat every day during the passage.—
A box, which made part of the hen co. .p attached to
the companion way, with holes in the bottom, was
filled with earth. The radishes, fit to eat when got
at New York, w ere planted in this eat th, very thickly,
and wet e taken up for use as they w erc wanted. The
box was lashed to the staunchions on the quarter. deck,
and had a lid, to be put down in ca,e of tough weather.
One of the Paddington stages drove over a boy this
morning in the City-road. aid killed him o Cle spot.
A most melancholy accident occurred about two miles from
Alnwick, last week. As THOMAS ADAMS, Req. of Long..
houghton, who has just succeeded to the valuable estate of
Acton, was returning from a visit to a neighbouring gentleman,
in compsny with a young lady to whom he was to have been
shortly married, he fell from his horse, tna was conveyed into
Alnwick the same evening a corpsea melancholy instance of
the uncertain tenure of human happiness!
DISTRESAING ACCIDENT—LONDONDERRY, JUNE 25.
—Saturday, between eleven and twelve o'clock, two
young Ladies, sisters, Henrietta, aged 17. and Mar-
garet, 18, daughters of Mr. William Buxton, who
superintends the building of the new jail here, were
both drowned in the Foyle, above the Gallows-strand.
They had bathed together, and the eldest had come
out and just got herself dressed, wh,..n she heard her
sister, who had remained in the water, and who, it is
supposed, had got out of her depth and was borne
along by the rapidity of the ebbing tide, screaming to
het for aid. Exclaiming that she would save her or
perish, she rushed in ; but before she got the length
of her sister she swooned away, and sunk to rise no
more. At this time a little girl who was upon the
shore gave the alarm, when a Gentleman, aho had
been bathing at some distance, was attracted to
the spot, and regardless of personal safety, plunged
into the water, hoping to save Margaret, whom he
saw struggling for life, lying upon her back and beat-
ing with her arms; but his design was frustrated by
the circumstance of his having on his clothes, con-
nected with the strength of the tide, and when within a
few yards of her, he saw her finally disappear I An
immediate watch was made for the bodies, but they
were not found till the following dep-41eurietta, at
fire o'clock in the morning, very near to the spot
where she had gone down—her sister at half-post
three, on the opposite side of the water. Yesterday
evening, the remains of these two lamented young
