=========================
THE HARVEST -- CLONES, OCT. 1 -- (From a Correspondent.) -- The last few days have been favourable for harvesting, and a great deal has been done; the grain is nearly all cut down in this neighbourhood, and a good deal has been housed during the last two days of fine weather. The price of oatmeal in this market yesterday was 15s per cwt; oats 1s. per. stone; potatoes 3d. to 4d. A fair was held here yesterday -- cows very low, and few sales effected; a bad assortment of horses, and little demand; sheep and pigs also very low, and few purchasers.
=========================
ACCIDENTAL DEATH. -- Yesterday, about 8 o'clock in the morning, as a young man named Robert Richardson, of Derriaghy, was working on the bank of Mr. John M'Henry's Freestone Quarry, near Lambeg, the part on which he was standing gave way, and he was precipitated into a deep pond of water that had been collected below. Every effort that could be thought of to effect his rescue was made by his fellow-workmen, and by those whom the cry of alarm had drawn to the spot -- their exertions, however, proved unavailing. After considerable difficulty and searching, his body was at length got out of the water, but every symptom of life was extinct. He was a young man of quiet and industrious habits, and possessed a good and engaging disposition.
=========================
ANTRIM GRAIN MARKET. -- It affords much pleasure to learn, that a regular weekly market for grain has been established in the Antrim, under the most advantageous regulations, to which, we understand, Lord Ferrard has kindly consented to lend his countenance and protection and the principal grain dralers in the neighbourhood have promised to attend. The market is to be opened every Tuesday morning, at ten o'clock by ring of bell. A Market Jury has been appointed, and a Committee, chosen from the most respectable inhabitants are appointed to superintend the market. The grain sold to be weighed at the public crane, or wherever the buyer or seller may appoint.
=========================
COLERAINE. -- On Friday last, the election for a Mayor took place at Coleraine. A deputation from the Irish Society attended, accompanied by a Solicitor. The object of the deputation was to extend the privilege of voting on these occasions, to certain classes of persons, whom custom has hitherto excluded from all participation in the proceedings. They were not, however, allowed to enter the room in which the Corporation were assembled, till after the election had been over -- they subsequently addressed the people, and promised to exert every influence which they possessed in order to procure an extension of the right of voting.
=========================
THE NAVY. -- His Majesty has commanded that the Captains of each ship shall, at the end of every three years in commission, send to the Admiralty the names of any petty officer or seaman, non-commissioned officer or private of marines, having served above 21 years, with a good character and good certificates, who shall be in the Captain's opinion deserving to be rewarded; when the persons so reported shall be paid a gratuity of £15, if a first class petty officer; of £7, if a second class petty officer; and £5, if an able seaman. All men receiving the said gratuity will be afterwards entitled to wear a silver medal, having on one side of it the words, "for long service and good conduct," and on the other an anchor and crown.
