HARVEST.-lIIA RKEM. •
We are #orry to state that the letters of our corres
isondents;in different parts of &met, repreient it as
most painful and distressing to witness the corn standing
In the fields, wi G scarcely any prospect of the neater
permitting it to be removed in a proper state to the
barns. Not more than one-third, in mrny districts, haX
been housed. This unfavourable turn to the harvest tai
caused ell the maekets to rise, and the quarters loaf to
ad ratite; already, three-half-pence !-(llrfghtots Herald.)

YARMOUTH, SEPT. 13.-Our supply of Wheat on Sa-
turday was small, and the weather being still unsettled

LYNN, Seer. 13.-Many of our farmers being yet

Yesterday the Grand Jury found a true hill again**
some personi for assaulting nne of the Life Guardsmen.
n tall, good-looking man, and for abusing him, by call:.
ing• him, among other Opprobrious names; a " Piccadilly
butcher," &c. &e. A true hill has been found against a
monster, who was in the habit of frightening servank
maids and female children, in the liegent's-park; and
true bills have also been found against several notorious*
characters, fot iitfering counterfeit sovereign; and
lines. In the course of the evening. the DOW Jaei
brought in two bills of indietmeni against William Hose
for misdemeanours. Both of them were declared " not

found" in the usual form. Thee misdemeanours cmik.
sisted, it is understood, in the eubliCation of two small
pamphlets. entitled " Non mi ricordo," and " Th.
Queen's Matrimonial Ladder."
The Preston Chronicle of Saturday week contains mi-
Yertisements of no less than one hundred and beenty-nini

arms to let, all in the county of Lancaster.
' Stost.w.—The very strong gale of wind which blew
liorseutkAlse flight of Tuesday se'unight, did consider-
able damage to tht vessels in the Dock. To but of
shipwrecks in a dock must surprise ever, orir, as it is
what cannot occur in any other port in Ireland ; but wd
are, and have been, particularly neglected. The Three
Sisters, of Limerick, was blown out of the dock, and
remain on shore amongst the tocks at Fort-hill. The
Union, of Glasgow, from Liverpool, with rock-salt, car- •
ried away her bowsprit. The Hope, of Barmouth; from
Liverpool, salt, smashed the iron chain in the quay, but
was fortunately brought to again. The bleeds% of
%Vorkihgton, from Quebec, timber, carried away her
bow cable, but was brought to after much exertion of
the master and crew. A Connemara boat was forced
from the dock, and driven on shore at Ringasore, where
she went to pieces. The flanker, from Norway, titilber,
lost her cable and anchor, and fortunately got tato Ned
Harbour. The Plumper rode out, the gale sdilitishigly I
but her gig was driven on shore beyond Spiddel, crest
sated ; and her cotter boat swamped under the stem—.
(Galway .Paper.)
One lash vessel bad a number of cattle drowned, and
another had one hundred pigs washed overboard from
the deck, in the gale of Tuesday night. So 'Meat a
gale has seldom been known at this season df the real.--;

Stitrwaecw.-;-Our readers will recollect that die
night of Tuesday and the morning of Wednesday lasts
were particularly tempestuous—so mock so, that the
slates were falling and the leaves were flyikg in every
direction ; and we have just heard, that the sloop Be-.
bare of this pori, which 'sailed from Olasgow od the
Ist instant, encountered a fearful gale on the
coast of Airshire; and with great difficult,' got into
the safe and beautiful anchorage of Loehoun. From
the village of Cairn, till within a niile or titre of Mr-
tan, the coast of Airshire is particidirly bold and
precipitous, as many a winter wreck can well testify;
and in ;sussing one of these dangerous beadleods
