AtffalrR ill England. 
The debate on the admission of Baron Roths¬ 
child was resumed on the 29th ult. 
The House affirmed his admission by an over¬ 
whelming majority, but on presenting himself last 
night for admission, some difficulties arose as to 
the nature of the oath he should take. 
The oaths of allegiance and supremacy were 
taken without hesitation in the Jewish form, agree¬ 
able to a resolution of the House. 
The oath of abjugation was tendered to him.— 
He took it all e.\cept on the words, “on the true 
faith of a Christian,’’ and said he refused them 
before, because they were not binding on his own 
part. 
The Speaker then directed the Baron to with¬ 
draw. 
This gave rise to a very long debate, which ul¬ 
timately ended in an adjournment. 
A terrible and destructive conflagration has re¬ 
duced the city of Samara; 33 stone houses and 
486 wooden houses were destroyed. 
The church, the residence of the ambassador 
of the municipal and judicial euthorities, the pris¬ 
on, the hospital, post office, 126 corn magazines, 
&c., &.C., were destroyed. 
Nothing of moment from Spain or Portugal. 
News from Schleswig Holstein' 
There has been a great battle between the Dan¬ 
ish and Schleswig forces. l.iOss on both sides was 
very great. Several officers on a calculation es¬ 
timate the loss to be 10,000 men. 
It is said that the Danish General had ofFered a 
truce of three days, but had been refused. 
Rekeruford has been abandoned and the fortifi¬ 
cations dismantled. 
Advices from Malta of the 22d ult., state that 
the cholera was still prevailing there, but though 
the cases were not as numerous the mortality was 
greater. 
F'rance. —Accounts from the agricultural dis¬ 
tricts of f’rance, state that the late rains had done 
immense good to the crops generally, particularly 
to flax, maise, hemp and potatoes. 
We learn from Naples by date the 17th ult., 
that Russia and Austria advised the King not to 
do any thing with the constitution. 
There was a rumor of a change of ministers. 
7 P. M. 
Washinoton, 12th.—Information has been 
communicated to President Fillmore, that the 
Cuban invaders are about making another move¬ 
ment, and we learn he has ordered a close watch 
on the suspected parties. 
Latest from California. 
The Steamer Cherokee arrived at New York on 
Tuesday week. Wo give the most important 
items, as follows: 
Emigration is pouring into San Francisco as 
rapidly as ever. 
But little doing in the mines. The water is too 
high in the rivers and large gullies, and notenough 
in the small ravines. The water, however, is 
falling rapidly. 
The steamship Philadelphia arrived at Chagres 
on the 16th of July, having experienced a heavy 
gale on the 13th, which lasted 3 days, in which 
one of the seamen was washed overboard and lost. 
One had both legs broken. One fireman died 
from injuries. 
The Philadelphia shipped heavy seas which 
caused great damage to her upper works. She 
was repaired while lying at Chagres, and would 
sail about the 7th inst. for New York. 
QU’The conductor of Howland & Aspinwall’s 
specie train was robbed off30,000,on his passage 
acrosc the Isthmus previous to the sailing of the 
Cherokee. 
Sail Francisco Markets. 
Flour and meal dull and sales limited especial¬ 
ly to frest Chili in begs, for wholesale. Prices for 
cargoes average from $11 to $II 50; half sacks 
$6 to $6 25. Supply of Oregon light and held at 
f 10 75@fll. 
A largo quantity of flour from the States had 
just arrived; first quality Richmond $10—half 
bbls $5 50. 
There is every probability of a further ad¬ 
vance. 
The report of gold being found in Oregon is 
confirmed, large quantities mixed with platiua be¬ 
ing found. 
The Georgia with the mails had just arrived in 
New York.__ 
The Peace Congress at F'rankkort. —The 
secretaries of the Peace Congress, the Rev. H. 
Richard and Elihu Burritt, have visited Heidel¬ 
berg, Manheim, Worms, Dresden, Giessen, Cas- 
sel, Halle, Deibig, Berlin, and are now continuing 
their course through Hamburg, Hanover, and 
Cologne. In these towns they have been receiv¬ 
ed with great attention, and obtained introduction 
to the Universities, Professors, and other persons 
of eminence. From Leipsig a powerful and in¬ 
fluential delegation is expected. Liebig,the great 
agricultural chemist, fully intends to be at the Con¬ 
gress. The well-known theologian. Dr. The- 
luck, is also expected. Professor Ulrice, the 
popular commentator on Shakspeare, has engag¬ 
ed to attend; and Dr. Langeur, President of 
the Court of Appeals at Dresden, and who was tu¬ 
tor to his Royal Highness Prince Albert, has 
cordially engaged his influence in favor of the ob¬ 
ject. 
Health ow.the Lakes. —Compared with last 
year, there is but very little sickness on board our 
Lake craft the present season. Vessels come in 
full manned, all hands on deck, and ready for 
their •• allowances,’’ in marked and happy con¬ 
trast to the scenes it was our lot to witness during 
the summer of ’49, when scarcely a day passed 
that flags were not at half-mast for some poor fel¬ 
low, who should stand his watch on deck no more.

EMERY & Co.’s 
Latest Improved Railroad Horse-Power,'and Over¬ 
shot Threshing Machine& Separator. 
T he aliove cut represents this most useful machine, 
wiiii Hie Latest Improvements, icr For wmcii 
Patent is secured, einbiacing some of g>eat value and 
imiiortance — whicli have suggested themselves lYom time 
to time as the various kinds made and sold by us liave be¬ 
come worn, used and failed. 
Tlie most important of these jeonsista principally in Hie 
mode of applying the power and motion fVom ihc endless 
platform to the shaft of the main Driving Pulley, and ob¬ 
taining the necessary motion for the Overshot Tiireshino 
Machine, witliout crossing irarids or intermediate gearings, 
and at the same time dispensing witli the small pinions and 
cogs on the [iriks of Hie endless platform. 
'I'liis Power, as will be readily seen in the cut, lias Hie 
revolving plank platform traversing upon its own friction 
wlieelsand iron Railroad track. At Hie forward end tliis 
platform is supported by its small Iron sliafts, upon an iron 
reel about sixteen inches in diameter — Hie shaft of tliis 
reel extending lieyond the sides of tlie Iraine work sufficient¬ 
ly to seeure Hie strong converge or internal gear, which is 
about twenty-four inclies in diameter. Tlie shall of the 
driving pulley (wliich pulley is about three feet in diame¬ 
ter,) is iiung in like manner witli Hie small gear upon one 
end, operating inside the converge gear bethre described, 
and consequently receives an increased motion in the same 
direction and carries the driving pully on the opposite end, 
and side of tlie power, for driving the overshot cylinders 
without crossing bands or interinediatc gearing — and at 
the same Hind dispense with Hie small pinions and cogs on 
tlie links of the endless platform. 
Tliis arrangement entirely removes all liability of break¬ 
age and wear of links and pinions (liereloforc .unavoida¬ 
ble) as the the direct stress upon the links working over 
small iiinions is vvliolly avoided—thereby combining great¬ 
er Strenoth and Duraiiii.ity with i.iouter Friction, 
witliout Hie liability of breakage of links, or ilie wearing 
of links and pinions,—("no small item in the expense of re¬ 
pairs in most oHier kinds of powers in use.) The far¬ 
mer or mcclianic is enabled to perform a greater amountof 
work, or to operate witli less power or elevation, as best 
suits bis wishes. 
The arrangement for tightening the endless platform by 
means of joint liolts connecting with the bearings of Hie 
reel shaft is Hie liest we liave seen—as it can in-tantly be 
accomplished with a common wrench, without slopping the 
team. 
Our platlbrm has been considerably lengthened—avoid¬ 
ing the difficulty of large or unsteady liorses stepping over 
or olf at either end. 
These Powers were introduced to a considerable extent 
last season, and wherever used side by side with the most 
approved powers of other kinds, liave given unqualified 
satisfaction and been preferred. 
ILaving been long engaged in tlie Manufacture, Intro¬ 
duction, Sale, &c., of Hie various kinds of Horse-Powers, 
for rliffercnt puriioses, and at ail times adopted sucli im¬ 
provements as from observation and experiment liave seem¬ 
ed necessary and desirable, we feel confliient that in this 
Power, as now manufactured, all that can be desirable, Is 
found to a greater extent Hian any heretofore sold by us, 
or with wliicli we are aciiuaintcd. 
Tlie Overshot Tlireshcrs and Vibrating Separators, with 
improvements, liave been sold wiiti like success .as Hie 
Powers. 'I'hey admit of a level feeding table, tlius avoid¬ 
ing accidents, (which often occur with Hie inclined feeding 
board,) by preventing hard substances, sticks and stones 
from getting into Hie macliinc and breaking spikes, en¬ 
dangering those engaged witli Hiem. 'J'lie Cylinder Sliaft, 
[of cast steel, J runs in Bronze Boxes, wliicli are so made 
of two parts as easily to lie adjusted wlien worn loose, and 
can with little trouble, always lie kept tiglit. 'I'he speed 
of tlie Power is such that a lari'er pulley is used on Hie 
'J’lireslier than on most others—driving stronger, witli less 
liability of slipping of bands, which l.istare made of V’ul- 
canized India Rubtier. Tlie Separator makes a complete 
separation of Grain from tlie Straw, leaving it in Hie best 
condition for Hie Fan Mill; tlius saving the labor of several 
men, and doing Hie work better. 
P’an Mills of various sizes, for Hand, or fitted to be driv¬ 
en by the Power, at same time of Hireshing. Also, Saw 
Mills in complete order. 
Tlie Double Horse-Power is capable, with 3 or 4 men, of 
thresliing from 12,5 to 260 buslieles of Wheat or Rye, and 
the single one from 75 to 100 bushels, or double Hiat quan¬ 
tity of Oats per day. 'I'hey are w.arrnntcd to perform as

To Farmers & Produce Dealers. 
W E have now ready a new and valualile book for every 
Farmer and Produce Healer, called “Scribner’s 
Produce 'Pabi.es,” exliibiting at one view the value of more 
than sixteen thousand dilferent quantities of Grain, com¬ 
puted at si.’cly pounds to Hie bushel, so arranged ns to pre¬ 
sent on the same page Hie value of the whole number of 
busliels and pounds, at Hie same price. 
'I’lie oliject of this book is to enable farmers, produce 
dealers, meclianics, and traders of all classes, to see alone 
glance, Hie price of Grain and Produce, but it is so arrang¬ 
ed in dollars and cents, that the price of any articles hav¬ 
ing to be measured or weighed can be readily found, tliere- 
by saving time and warranting accuracy, wliicli from liasty 
calculations often happens. 
Mr. Scribner’s former books have attained a reputation 
for correctness and accuracy, and become so ixipular 
wlierever kiionvn, as to need no recommendations, and this 
one will recommend itself to every one interested as soon 
as seen. 
'Pile price of Hie tiook is twenty-five cents at retail, 
wliicli is cheaper ttian any Produce Reckoner now pub¬ 
lished, and so low Hiat every person can possess a copy.—

MONOCURATIVE VETERINARY MEDICINE. 
T he subscriber in oft'ering his Drench for Spas¬ 
modic Cholic in Horses, as well as his Applica¬ 
tion for Cuts, Broken Knees, Saddle and Harness 
Galls, and all abrasions of the skin, to a discerning 
public, is not so ignorant himself, nor does he 
suppose those purchasing his medicines, so devoid of 
discrimination as to believe him, were he to boast 
they possessed the many curative properties assign¬ 
ed to all the nostrums now for sale and issuing from 
the laboratories of men, not even pretending to a 
knowledge of the anatomy or physiology of tho 
Horse ; but solely advances his Medicines as alone 
applicable to the disease, wounds, and abcesses, 
specified in tho directions for use, accompanying 
each bottle, and for which, when used as directed, 
he stakes his professional character w ill prove an in- 
fallablo remedy and unerring cure. 
No stable should be without this AtUi-spasmodic 
and Application, which can be procured (for the 
Price of Drench •• 1!—Application 75 cents, 
present,) at my office here, and at agents in town 
and country, to bo named hereafter.

'Phis article has been thoroughly tested by the 
best judges in this city and pronounced a genuine 
article. Persons desiring to test the purity of the 
lead, may have it analyzed by a chemist, and if in 
any case it should be found impviro, we will pay the 
price of analyzing it and refund the money for the 
I

however a large quantity of lead "fixed over" here. 
Nevertheless, we wish our lead not to be confound¬

AIR-TIGHT COOKING STOVE, 
At Cheney’S) No. 24 Exchange St, Rochester. 
I WOULD respectfully call the attention of my 
friends to this stove, as the best and most ap¬ 
proved COOKING STOVE ever offered to the pub¬ 
lic. It IS acknowledged by all to have the largest 
oven, to bake better with less fuel, to have superi¬ 
or advantages for broiling, and to be the most eco¬ 
nomical and perfect, in all other respects, to any 
other stove now in use. 
My arrangements are such that I hope to have a 
constant supply, and my friends and customers can 
at all times bo accommodated with them, at rea¬ 
sonable prices.

The bang-up air-tight Cooking Stove, 
A t AMSDEN’S, is conceded on all hands to 
have acquired a wide and bettor reputation in 
a shorter period, than any other in tho world. I 
wish it distinctly understood and remembered, that 
it not only merits its unparalleled clebrity, but is 
warranted the most economical and perfect COOK- 
STOVE in use—'to the truth of which, I can fur¬ 
nish hundreds of testimonials. 
I have recently added to my supply two hundred 
and fifty, in hopes to be able in future to meet the 
rapidly increasing demand. They are of various 
sizes — the largest suitable for Hotels and Boarding
