 We received English papers of 1st .tlarch, by steamer

 but was thought to be reviving a little. American flour in

 on wheat remained as formerly, 25s. ed per quarter. The 

 Cotton trade at Liverpool w-s active.

The Imported English Horse, "Emigrant," 



W'ILL stand for Mares the ensuing season, at the barn of 

 ■Mr. C Ashton, in Shelby, one mile west and h:df a 

 mile south from Medina, Orleans Co., where he has stood 

 the two l.'ist seasons. 



It is but just to say that he is not probably surpassed by 

 any horse in Western New York. Good judges who were 

 I the Fair in Rochester, last fall, think that if he had been 

 tliere he would have taken the premium without any doubt. 

 His stock is rightmost llie thing, for farmers and the mar- 

 ket. Gentlemen who wish to raise good iiorses will do well 

 o call and sec.— He is cjtltensively knoivn in Livingston
