At Winchester Michaelmas fair, on Friday, the quantity of
sheep penned was not large, but the sale was particularly brisk ;
ewes beleoging to Mr. Fitt, of Hureley, were sold at 455. per
bead. Some Jambs, the property of Mr. Burnett, fetched ass.---
The immense price of 665. was given for some Sue wethers
be-
longing to T. F. Heathcote, Esq. Sheep were full Sc. per bead'
higher thus at Weyhill. In the horse fair but little business was
done. The fair was more than usually full. owing chiefly to the ,
Stamen of the day. A good supply of very fine cheese was pitch-1
ed for sale. Prime fr.:.4 Kt. to:9oe. Old from 1000. to 110 s. The
market was well supplied with wheat on Saturday, which met
with very dull sale at lut week's prices. Barley was in short sup-
ply, and obtained 3s. per quarter higher.
Salisbury Michaelmas Fair was held on Monday sennigiit, at
which there was a very snarl! quantity of cheese pitched, and the
demand net brisk. A quantity of French onions were exposed to
sale at from 15d to ltd, per gallon, which met a dull tale. Eng-
lish onions were in abundance, and fetched from Is to 26 the rope.
A large dishful of gooseberries was gathered. on
Tuesday last, in the garden of the Boat House of the,
House of Industry, at Shrtwsbury ; currants are on
the trees in several places round that town.
Thursday the Magistrates of Glasgow received a
respite on behalf of Margaret Kenned,, sentenced at
last Circuit Court to be executed for Issuing Forged
Bank Notes.

Thursday sennight a girl, eight years of age, wash

Tuesday, a Gentleman belonging to Kincardine
had taken his passage in the smack for London, and
went on board in perfect health, but before the ves-
sel had reached Leith Roads he dropt down and ez-

A DOG STUNG TO DEATH BY BEES —A short time
ago, Mr. M‘LAurux, brewer, Ntwtonstewart, remo-
ved a very fine watch-dOg from his usual kennel to a
situation in the garden, with a view of protecting his
fruit from the auernpu of juvenile depredators. Un-
fortunately, however, the poor dog was chained very
near a bee-hive the enraged and multitudinous pc-
pttlation of which, not relishing the presence of such
a neighbour, sallied out en masse, and in a twinkling
literally transferred the seat of the hive from the
cone cf straw to the mastiff's body. It was in vain
that the generous animal attempted to defend himself
from such ferocious and unwonted foes ; every time
he opened his mouth the bees descend a! his throat in
hundreds, burying their stings in the passage, and
like certain patriots of the biped race, heedlessly sa-
crificing their own lives to the supposed good of the
republic. The dreadful yells of the masti:rat length
attracted the notice of the owner and neighbours
but their assistance came too late, as the poor animal
was so dreadfully stung that he died is a few hours.
ADULTERATION OF PORTER.—The following Con-
victions of Brewers% for the adulturation of Porter,
have taken place in Ireland:
On the 2d instant, Mr. James Gernon. brewer, was
convicted, before the Sub-Commissioners at Droghe-
da, in the penalty of £2OO, for having in his possession
various ingredients for the purpose of miring them
with beer and porter, contrary to law. It appeared in
evide. e, that the prohibited articles found in Mr.
Gernon's stores, consisted of large quantities of liquo-
rice, gentian, and upwards of 100 gallons of molasses.
Another information, for a penalty of £2OO, against
Mr. Michael Mahen, of Kells, brewer, was tried on
the 14th and 15th.inst. at Trim, before the Sub-Com-
mittee, for having in his possession, after the sth cf
July last, a quantity of deleterious ingredients, con-
trary to an Act passed in the last Session of Parlia-
ment.—Mr. John Codd, brewer, at Kilbeggan, was
convicted in the penalty of4:100, for using. after the
15th of June, 1809, that is to say, on the 'lfith of
February last, deleterious ingredients in brewing por-
, ter. Mr. Codd did not enter into any defence.
