Foreign Intelligence. 
TWO WEEKS LATER FROM EUROPE 
New York, March 23—10 A. M. 
The Niagara has arrived at Halifax with dates 
from Liverpool to the 8th. 
Cotton was dull, with tendency to decline.— 
Sales of two weeks 5,300 bales. 
Corn declined 2d per quarter on white, and 6d 
to 9d on yellow. 
Best Western Canal, Baltimore and Ohio flour 
declined Is 6d per bbl. 
Provisions improved. 
Money market improved. Consols for money 
96|, for account 96^. American stocks advanc¬ 
ed. 
The Europa arrived at Liverpool on the 3d in¬ 
stant, the Hermann at Southampton on the 8th. 
The political affairs of England present little of 
special interest. 
The Frencli Republic. 
The anniversary of the Republic, of28lh Feb., 
passed off without disturbance. 
The Minister of Finance states that the revenue 
will be adequate for the public service this year, 
without a new loan or increased taxes. 
The Postmaster General opens all letters pass¬ 
ing to and from suspected persons. I’his conduct 
has given rise to much debate in the Assembly. 
It is said that France and Russia are complete¬ 
ly united on tfie Greek question. Letters from 
Toulon state that the French fleet in the Levant 
had sailed for the Greek coast. 
We learn from the French budget, just pub¬ 
lished, that the army is to be reduced to 408,000 
men, and that the expenses of the nation are to be 
reduced 84,000,OOOf. 
Tlio Greek Ctuestioii. 
The conduct of Lord Palmerston concerning 
the Greek blockade, is severely commented upon 
by alFthe English journals, and were it not for a 
belief which exists, that his Lordship has made a 
demonstration against Russia, his conduct would 
meet with general reprobation. 
The Russian Government has presented an en¬ 
ergetic remonstrance against the proceedings of 
the English Government, and public opinion is 
generally that if necessary, the Czar will give the 
Greeks efficient support. 
The Russian note to the Minister at London, 
says : •• You wilt demand of Lord Palmerston to 
what extent he intends to employ force in support 
of his claims, in order that the allies of king Otho 
may be in a position to consider what means may 
be necessary for them to adopt, to guaranty the 
independence of that monarch and his people.” 
The London Gazette says that a Queen’s Mes¬ 
senger passed through Milton on the 25th ult., 
with ordetis to Sir William Parker to cease hostil¬ 
ities against Greece. 
Her Majesty has authorized a publication of the 
following liberal rewards for the discovery of Sir 
John Franklin, viz : £20,000 to any one who will 
effectually relieve the crews and ships ; £10,000 
for relieving or for such information as may lead 
to the relief of any of the crew ; and £10,000 to 
any one who shall first succeed in ascertaining 
their fate. 
Accounts from the manufacturing districts are 
not satisfactory. Many of the mills in Manches¬ 
ter and other places, are working short time, and 
some have stopped altogether ; but it is not be¬ 
lieved that this is more than a temporary arrange¬ 
ment. 
The Niagara arrived at Boston this P. M., and 
the following additional news has come over by 
telegraph : 
The news from India is not important. Com¬ 
mercially speaking, it was not so favorable, espe¬ 
cially at Bombay,as indicated by previous advices. 
The result of the election was not known at 
Paris on Thursday the 7th. 
The Government has established a censorship 
on all foreign books brought into Franco. 
Switzerland. 
The provinces of Prussia on the Swiss canton¬ 
ments has been recovered, but as France 'and 
Austria have interfered, nothing serious is appre¬ 
hended. 
Denmark and tlie Duchies. 
The report gains ground that the armistice is to 
bo prolonged. It is currently reported that Den¬ 
mark has concluded a private treaty with Prussia, 
by which the latter is to have the island of Bon- 
holm for its support, should hostilities of Schles¬ 
wig be resumed. 
Turkey. 
The Sultan proposes that the refugees shall be 
retained in Asia Minor for a period not exceeding 
one year. Kossuth and others are about to be re¬ 
moved accordingly. 
Naples. 
Fears are entertained at Naples that Admiral 
Parker will pay his respects to the Neapolitans as 
soon as he leaves the Greek coast. Like fears 
are also entertained at Madrid. 
Italy, 
There is no indication of the speedy movement 
of the Pope. 
Austria and Hungary. 
The Vienna journals state that intelligence had 
been received from Transylvania, to the effect 
that the Russians were assembling a considerable 
military force at the defile of Gesto, with the in¬ 
tention of again occupying Transylvania, so as to 
allow Austrian troops to pass through Italy and 
the German frontier. Hanau has called the Na¬ 
tional Guards of such largo towns as Presburg, 
to make up a new levy of 20,000 troops. Many 
of the people have left home in consequence, 
knowing that they would be obliged to serve. A 
few political prisoners have also escaped. Large 
numbers of the Hungarian refugees are collect¬ 
ing on the frontiers of Bosinia, where they are 
treated with great kindness by the Turkish Vi¬ 
zier. 
Prussia and tUc ctorman States. 
The Prussian Monitor of the 5th inst., publish¬ 
es the names of the members of the Chamber, 
and State, names for the Government. They 
are all of the aristocratic class. A formal protest 
has been entered by the counsel of administration 
against Hanover from withdrawing from the al¬ 
liance of the 21 states of May 2G. 
A Danish war frigate and a barque has been 
seen cruizing off the Balk. 
Cholera in Mexico. —The cholera rages in 
many parts of Me.xico. At the town of Veriiando, 
on the 4th of Februar,', there were 48 cases, 9 of 
which proved fatal. At the village of Buena Vista, 
in tile State of Michacan, the greater part of the 
inliabitants fled through fear. Of 70 persons 
w’ho wore attacked in one day, none recovered.— 
The Mexican papers think that the epidemic is not 
of so alarming a character as that of 1832 and 33. 
Welland Canal. —It is announced that the 
Welland Canal will bo open for navigation on the 
first day of April.

ALBANY MARKET— March 25. 
There is scarcely a new feature to notice in the 
market since our last report. Business generally is 
rather dull, but more active than it was towards the 
close of last week. Several Eastern vessels, belong¬ 
ing to the regular lines, have arrived since our last, 
which has tended to infuse new life and created 
some demand for the leading articles. In the pro¬ 
duce market we notice a gradual increase of trade, 
but provisions arc rather quiet. 
Flour—We notice a steady and rather improving 
demand for the medium and better grades of Flour, 
but in the low and inferior qualities there is nothing 
of importance doing. The sales to-day sum up 600 
bbis. at .$4 S5(a)5 for common to good State; $5 12 
(a)5 25 for Michigan; and $5 37®5 50 for pure Gene¬ 
see. Included m the sales were 146 bbis. fancy 
State at $5 75, and75 bbis'. ”E. S. Beach” at ,$6 25. 
Grain—Barley continues in an active request for 
brew'ing; the stock here in first hands is small, and 
we can learn of no sales made to arrive though there 
is manifested on the part of buyers some disposition 
to negotiate for lots near at hand which are held at 
a high figure. Wheat is held above the views of 
buyers. We quote street sales as follows: Rye 57 c 
®58c; Corn 55056c; Oats 38039c; Barley 70075c, 
with but little arriving. 
F’ecd—A sale of 9,000 bush. 20 lb feed was made 
at 16c. 
Seed—Timothy is dull. The market being over 
stocked’with inferior; good is in fair supply. We 
quote Canadian .$202.50; State .$350 as in quality. 
Clover is steady with a fair business doing. Sales 
40 bbis. Ohio at 7J. State seed is saleable at $80 
10 for small to largo. 
Hops—A steady market at 18 fornewq sales small. 
Provisions—The market is dull for most kinds of 
Provisions. We have only to notice small sales of 
beef at $10 for city mess, and $7 for do. prime.— 
Nothing doing in Pork. Cut meats are in moderate 
request for the supply of the city trade. W"e quote 
smoked hams 7i08c, shoulders 5c. Smoaked beef 
is better and saleable at lOic. Beef hams are held 
at 18c. Butter continues to meet with ready sale, 
and the stock w'hich accumul.ated during the winter, 
and was held on the opening of navigation is now 
much reduced. We notice a sale of 50 kegs Lewis 
county at 16c. The range is 16018c for good to 
prime. Lard is saleable at707Icforbbls. and kegs. 
Cheese is steady at 6^07. 
AVool—The market is firm for all kinds of wool 
with a steady demand from manufacturers. A sale 
of 5,000 lbs. pulled was made at 33Ic for No. 1, and 
36^0 for sjjrperfine. We also notice a further sale 
on Saturday, of 2,000 lbs. superfine pulled on pri¬ 
vate terms, j 
Whiskey—A further sale of 54 bbis,. Prison was 
made on Saturday at 24c. None olTcring to-day. 
BUFFALO MARKET—March 23. 
Our market presented more activity yesterday, 
and we have to notice sales of about 2,000 bbis. 
flour—1,575 bbis. Michigan, difi’erent brands, at $4 
50—400 bbis. Ohio at $4 44. The steamer’s news 
received this morning shows a decline of Is. fid, ster¬ 
ling, in Western and Baltimore Hour; but What ef¬ 
fect, if any, it will have on our market remains to 
be seen. We hear of no transactions to-day. The 
foreign news is favorable for provisions. We have 
however, little change to notice in this market— 
prices remain firm. We hear of sales 40 bbis. un¬ 
inspected Ohio beef, at $7 50 for mess and .$5 for 
prime—for good Chicago, uninspected, $8 was of¬ 
fered and refused for mess. There is no change in 
pork, the demand still continues good and prices 
continue the same. In seed there is little doing.— 
Loads from the,country will not bring over $3 620 
3 75 in the street; we change our quotations to $3 
62 0 4 00 by the quantity.—Com. Adv.

2,500 Sheep and Lambs.

A GOOD TIME TO SUBSCRIBE! 
Prof. Johnston’s Lectures on the General Relations 
.of Science to Agriculture. 
The second quarter of the Rural New-Y'orker 
will commence with the 14th number — the first 
week in April. The occasion will be a favorable 
one to subscribe, and we trust both agents and sub¬ 
scribers will make some exertion to increase the cir- 
aulation and thus augment the value and usefulness 
of the paper. And we respectfully suggest to those 
who “like the paper” and “hope it will be sus¬ 
tained”—(and 5ve believe there arc hundreds if not 
thousands of such persons)—that they can easily 
furnish evidence of the sincerity of their professions. 
With the new quarter we shall commence the pub¬ 
lication of Prof. Johnston’s Lectures on the General 
Relations of Science to Agriculture, delivered before 
the N. Y. State Agricultural Society during the past 
winter. They will be continued in each number, 
until the whole series (nine Lectures) shall be com¬ 
pleted. Each Lecture will be given in full — not a 
mere synopsis. We have already received a com¬ 
plete and correct report of the first one of the series, 
and are promised the succeeding ones in time to give 
them weekly, in regular succession. 
These Lectures are w'orth the subscription price 
of the New-Yorker for a year — yet, by inserting 
one (or a part of one) in each number, we shall be 
enabled to present them, in a few weeks, without 
materially diminishing our usual variety during their 
publication. In order to furnish the numbers con¬ 
taining the Lectures to all who make early applica¬ 
tion, we shall add from 500 to 1,000 copies to our 
present edition. This will probably enable ns to 
supply, for some weeks, back numbers from the com¬ 
mencement of the quarter— yet all who wish to se¬ 
cure the entire numbers will do well to s7ibscribe 
early. Agents and others arc authorized to form 
clubs for six or nine months, at the same rates as 
for a year. Wc thus place the Lectures within the 
reach of all, at a low price.

TO FARMERS AND GARDENERS! 
SEYMOUR’S GRAIN DRILL. 
T his drill, which was patented in Septem¬ 
ber, 1849, is one of the latest improvements in 
Drilling Machines, and better adapted to the wants 
of the farmer than any other now before the public. 
It sows or plants all kinds of grain and seeds, from 
peas, beans, corn and cotton, to the smallest seeds— 
and combines the advantages of sowing either broad 
cast or in drills. It is an excellent Broad Cast Sow¬ 
ing Machine, w'hen the drill teeth and conducting 
tubes, (which are very conveniently detached,) arc 
taken off. 
fliany farmers soak their wheat in brine or other 
liquid, (in wliich the good seed sinks while the foul 
floats off,) for the double purpose of separating it 
from foul seed and rolling it in lime, plaster or other 
fertilizing substances. This has the advantage over 
other drills, inasmuch as it performs well in sowing 
grain thus prepared, while they utterly fail in the at¬ 
tempt. Wet wheat, oats or white caps, which so 
readily clog other machines, are not serious obsta¬ 
cles in this. Those who wish to soak their seed for 
any purpose W'hatever, or mix with it any fine fer¬ 
tilizers, such as lime, plaster, bone dust, Ac.,—and 
also those who prefer thrashing with a flail, to avoid 
the injury done to the seed by thrashing with a 
machine —will find THIS THE DRILL FOR 
THEM. 
When drilling with this machine, the grain falls 
from the grain-box to the tubes, (a space of six 
inches,) in full view of the person attending it — 
so that, in passing over the field, he may be con¬ 
stantly assjjred that the seed is deposited as he de¬ 
signs. The teeth are all raised from the ground at 
once, with one lever, and the seed all stooped at 
once; or one may bo raised at a time, and the seed 
it discharges stopped. 
The convenience and simplicity with which this 
machine is managed is unparalleled. No necessary 
expense or pains have been spared in making it as 
desirable, in all respects, as possible, and after OTawy, 
and the most satisfactory experiments — not in the 
winter on the floor of the machine shop merely, but 
in seeding time, with the farr>ier, under various cir¬ 
cumstances, on rough and smooth, hilly and level, 
stony and clear land — the inventor (who was bred 
a practical farmer, and ought to know something of 
the farmer’s wants,) feels assured that the machine 
is not only established on correct principles, but is 
got up in that simple and permanent style and good 
taste which cannot fail to suit all. 
The first premium, for a Grain Drill capable of de¬ 
positing fine manures with the grain, was awarded 
to this Machine at the Fair of the New Y'ork State 
Agricultural Society, held at Syracuse in Sept., 
1849. It also received the first premium at the 
Michigan State Fair, in 1849, and the first premium 
of the Ontario County Society. 
RECOMMENDATIONS. 
A few certificates, from the most reliable sources, 
are subjoined:— 
Mr. Seymo7it —Sir: With the Grain Drill which 
I purchased of you this season, my son, a lad 16 
years of age, has put in about 5() acres of wheat for 
me, and with some of it about a bushel and a half 
per acre of ashes and hen dung was mixed, and all 
to my entire satisfaction. He h.as also drilled in 
about 100 acres for others, and I believe all are well 
pleased with the Machine, and I must say I prefer it 
to any I have seen. IRA R. PECK. 
East Bloomfield, Sept., 17, 1840. 
Mr. P. Sey7no7ir — Dear Sir: Y'oii ask for my 
opinion with regard to the Wheat Drill 1 purchased 
of you this fall. Without specifying particulars, I 
would express my unqualified approbation of it over 
that of any other which 1 have seen in use. I am 
somewhat enthusiastic on the subject of drilling — 
believing it will soon bo universally adopted by far¬ 
mers. I would not willingly disparage the patents 
of other individuals. 
In haste, with great respect, vours, Ac., 
Gates, Sept. 10, 1849. CALVIN SPERRY. 
This may certify, that I have used Mr. Pierpont 
Seymour’s Wheat Drill, and I consider it just the 
thing for putting in wheat. WM. (jTIS. 
Rochester, Sept. 7, 1849. 
I have examined certian certificates in the hands 
of Mr. Seymour, in favor of his Grain Drill, one of 
them from Ira R. Peck. I am personally acquaint¬ 
ed with Mr. Peck. His statement can be fully re¬ 
lied on. The other certificates, I have no doubt, 
are from equally reliable sources. 1 have myself 
heard the Drill spoken of in high terms of commen¬ 
dation, by farmers who had used it; and have also 
seen it in operation, and believe it to be at least one 
of the very best in use. I was present at the State 
Fair, in September last, where the first premium 
was awarded to Mr. Seymour for his Drill. 1 have 
I the confidence that any statement which Mr. Sey¬ 
mour would be likely to make in regard to the Drill 
would bo strictly true. ISAAC W. MITCHELL.

SEYMOUR’S GARDEN DRILL 
Is a small Machine of suitable size to be drawn by 
a man. It is got up on the principles of the Grain 
Drill, and will plant peas, beans, beets, and even 
carrots, or any kind of garden seeds, mixed with 
plaster, Ac. Jt is very convenient for large gar¬ 
deners, as it will sow(,five rows at once as readily as 
the Garden Drills in common use will sow one, and 
is much less liable to clog. 
SEYMOUR’S BROAD CAST SOWIXG MACUINE. 
This machine is well known in Western New- 
York, and is universally acknowledged to be the 
best i//tple/7ie7it in our country, for the purposes for 
which it is intended. It sows correctlj', all kinds 
of Gtain, (and nay desired quantity per acre,) from 
peas to grass seed — including wheat, rye, oats, bar¬ 
ley, buckwheat, rice, hemp, flax, clover and tim¬ 
othy seed. Also plaster, lime, salt, ashes, bone 
dust, Ac. Ac. It is capable of dusting every' inch 
of ground on an acre of land with less than half a 
bushel of plaster; and thirty or forty bushels of 
lime maybe thus evenly applied to the same amount 
of land, if desired. It sows 10 feet wide. 
This machine has been much improved by sub¬ 
stituting iron in several important parts in the place 
of wood, making it a very' durable article. It has 
taken the first premium .atlive County' and two State 
Agricultural Fairs. 
TESTIMONIALS. 
The following certificates show the public senti¬ 
ment in regard to this machine: 
Y\'e, the undersigned, being well acquainted with 
Sey'mour’s Broad-cast Sowing Machine, do say it is 
well adapted to all the purposes for which it is de¬ 
signed, and it far exceeds all others of which we 
have any knowledge.

SAMUEL H. ANDREWS, do. 
RUFUS HUYIPHREY, Victor, 
DAVH) CLARK, Seneca. 
This may' certify', that I have used Seymour’s 
Sowing Machine, in sowing oats, barley, peas, 
clover and herds grass seed, and it operates to my' 
utmost satisfaction. I sowed 30 bushels of oats, 8 
bushels of peas, ana 20 bushels of barley in one 
day', and I think 30 acres a reasonable day’s work. 
J. H. GLASS, Avon, Liv. Co. 
Mr. Sey7/io7xr —Dear Sir: The Sowing Machine 
I purchased of y'ouiu September last, fully answers 
the recommendations, and I think it among the best 
tanning implcmciffs of which onrenuntrv can boast. 
J. HClJ OWA)', lork.'Liv. Co. 
3Ir. Sey//iou7 —It gives me pleasure to state that 
I have used your Sowing Machine with much suc¬ 
cess. JABEZ GODDARD, Y''ork, Liv. Co. 
I have used for two seasons past, P. Seymour’s 
Sowing Machine for sowing grain and plaster. For 
sowing grain it is excellent on account of sowing so 
much more evenly than can be sowed by hand. In 
sowing plaster, it is invaluable on account of its sav¬ 
ing labor as w'ell as avoiding the very disagreeable 
dust that arises from it.
