Remarks. —On reference to our Price Current it will be seea 
that Ashes, Cotton, Flour, Wheat, Barley, Oats, Corn, Indian 
Meal, Hay, Naval Stores, Lard, Provisions, and Tallow, have ad¬ 
vanced, the late European advices per Caledonia being in favor 
of these articles. We almost regret to see such advance, as it 
may have a tendency to prevent shipments to that extent which 
would take place if prices were kept lower. The United States 
grow such large quantities of produce, it is a great object to sell 
at moderate rates, and thus prevent other nations competing 
with us in the English market. 
Money continues abundant at legal rates, for all private pur¬ 
poses. The Government is somewhat pinched for funds, which 
may ultimately affect private affairs, unless the people continue 
very prudent in the conduct of their business. Credits should be 
avoided as much as possible. 
To Correspondents.— Cato, A Young Farmer, Wm. R. 
Prince, Reviewer, M. W. Philips, L. T. Talbot, J. H. Beale, 
E. M. C., and Westchester, are received. The last will be good 
enough to send us samples of his African maize, as we suspect it 
is Egyptian millet, such as has long been cultivated here. 
Acknowledgments. —The Northern Galaxy, containing the 
List of Premiums of the Addison County, Vt., Ag. Society Show 
and Fair ; the same of the Cortland County Ag. Society. 
DUTCHESS AGRICULTURAL INSTITUTE.

the “ Wilkinson Premium Farm,” in the Western Valley of 
Union Vale, Dutchess County. 
The Winter Session of this Institution commences the 1st Thurs¬ 
day of October ; the Summer Session the first Thursday of April. 
The Course of Studies in this Institution is such as to give the

Scientific and Practical Agriculture, with the use of the best 
modern improved Implements ; a select Farmer’s Library, with 
numerous Agricultural Periodicals, and instruction in all the col¬ 
lateral branches.

make abstracts, to serve both as examinations and as exercises in 
composition, delivered on 
Technical Mineralogy—applied to Rural Economy, Commerce, 
Chemistry, Mining, and Architecture—illustrated by Mineralogi- 
cal Cabinet and excursions for observation. 
Practical Botany—applied to Horticulture, Veterinary Medicine, 
Rural and Domestic Economy—illustrated by living specimens 
and excursions for observation.

factures—illustrated by living subjects, skeletons, &c. The 
Zoonic course will commence with the Horse. 
Natural Philosophy and Agricultural Chemistry—illustrated by 
efficient Experiments, by Prof. S. E. Haskel, late of the Van 
Rennselaer Institute, of Troy. 
Mathematics, in all their branches, are thoroughly taught. 
A practical knowledge of the Modern Languages is ensured by 
Weekly Lectures, Discussions, Orations, Essays, and Conversa¬ 
tions in them. 
The soil of the Farm embraces a great variety, and is well 
adapted to Experimental Farming. Its location is pleasant and 
healthful—the building extensive and commodious. 
Fee for the Year $200, payable semi-annually, in advance— 
which includes Tuition, Board, with beds and bedding, Toilet 
Furniture, Washing, Mending, Fuel, and Lights.

sirous of attending each or any Course of Lectures, can obtain

payable in advance. Extensive accommodations for Horses are
