ESSEX. 
A fire of a very singular but alarming 
description has been lately occasioned at 
Canewdou, from the following circum¬ 
stance : A person who held in his hand a 
burning-glass, ignorantly directed a child 
to put a piece of paper against a barn, 
when that part of the barn being much 
covered with moss, the blaze was commu¬ 
nicated to the thatch ; the barn and a stable 
adjoining were totally consumed.

SUSSEX. 
Sept. 3d. The harvest which is now in 
its zenith, is abundant. The hills never 
produced such a crop. Beans and peas are 
so plenteous, that they are expected to be 
as low as 3s. per bushel. Five loads of new 
wheat were lately sold in Chichester mar¬ 
ket, by one farmer, at £14 per load. The 
continued rains, however, through the 
month, having caused a great speculation 
in corn, the prices have since risen from 
30 to 50 per cent.

HAMPSHIRE. 
A building has been lately erected in 
the High Street, of Newport, Isle of Wight, 
to be used for the purposes of the Isle of 
Wight Institution. It contains a room tor 
newspapers and periodical publications, a 
library, a room containing the museum 
belonging to the Philosophical Society, and 
a billiard room. The estimated expence 
was £3000, and it does great credit to the 
accuracy of the architect, Mr. Mortimer, 
of this town, that it has not exceeded that 
sum. The amount was raised in tranfer- 
abie shares of £25 each, the proprietor of 
one share has free admission for himself 
and the liberty of introducing a friend. 
Those who possess more than one, receive 
25s. per annum for each additional 6hare, 
which is the sum fixed on as the annual 
subscription of persons who are not pro¬ 
prietors. The sum paid on the admission 
of each member, is 11. 11s. 6d.; low as the 
charges appear they have yet been found 
sufficient to enable the committee to furnish 
the rooms in a handsome manner, and to 
purchase a considerable number of books, 
which will soon become a respectable li¬ 
brary.
