Three Days Later News. 
The steamer America, Capt. Lang, from Liv¬ 
erpool, arrived at Halifax on the 3d inst She en¬ 
countered severe weather on the passage. The 
America brings three days later newsfroin all parts 
of Europe. 
The America sailed from Liverpool on Sunday 
P. M., the 23d. She brings a large number of 
passengers. 
Colton was unusually active, with an advance 
on the week of fully one farthing per pound on the 
common and medium qualities ot American.— 
Sales for the week, 67,000 bales, of which there 
were sold to speculators 8,660 bales, and 14,420 
bales for export. 
Harvesting operations wire going on favorably 
throughout Great Britain, and the favorable pros¬ 
pects of the incoming crops had a very depress¬ 
ing effect on the Corn markets. 
American Flour had declined 6d. per bbl. and 
Wheat was selling 2d. per 70 lbs. lower than at the 
sailing of the Asia on the 5th nit. 
There was an increased demand for money, but 
the rates at the Bank of England had not been 
advanced. 
Liverpool Market. —Small sales have been 
made at a farther reduction. There is so little pork 
here, thatcpiotations are quite nominal. Shoulders 
are without change. The low prices 24s. and 16s 
accepted for hams. Cheese presents nothing new 
to repott. Lard has again advanced—47s. has 
been made for small parcels. There is no strength 
in the Corn market. When sales are pressed, 
lower prices have to be taken. The consumption 
is unprecedentedly large. 
We quote Western canal flour at 17 a 20s. per 
bbl. Philadelphia IDs. a 19s. 6d. St. Louis 19s.

eral of her floats. 
Breadstuff's at Liverpool are unchanged. 
Parliament has been further prorogued until Nov. 
4th. The Queen will visit Manchester and ad¬ 
joining towns on the lOdi of October. 
Gibraltar is threatened with quarantine, in con¬ 
sequence of the cholera prevailing at Oran and 
Melilla. 
Commercial matters in France, were in a com¬ 
paratively prosperous condition. The harvest was 
excellent and mostly secured. The Council Gen¬ 
eral of the Seine at Marne, has adopted resolutions 
in favor of the revision of the Constitution, but also 
arlicle 45, which prohibits tbe re-election of the 
President. 
Dates from Lisbon of the 19'.h report all quiet at 
Portugal. Large quantities of the crops of grapes 
had been destroyed by drought. Tbe Franklin 
advices are nearly 5 days later.

ARRIVAL OF THE PROMETHEUS. 
Two Week3 Later Intelligence, 
The Prometheus arrived at New York on the 
4th inst., with 275 passengers, $400,000 in gold, 
and California news to Aug. 1st. Below we give 
a summary of the news which is unimportant. 
Tiie steamer Independence arrived at San Juan 
del Sudori the 16th of August. 11er passengers 
were there transferred to the Prometheus. 
The Oregon, to sail from San Francisco, Aug. 
8, is reported to have nearly two millions gold on 
board. 
The reports from all the mining districts are 
more favorable than at any period during the pres¬ 
ent year, and the shipments of gold for August and 
September, will doubtless exceed those of any pre¬ 
vious months. 
There is an increased confidence in the ultimate 
success of quartz mining, and the belief is every 
dav becoming more general that this will be the 
great and permanent source of gold. 
Business in San Francisco is brightening up, 
and the merchants, nothing daunted by the many 
fires, are building so rapidly that the city has as¬ 
sumed nearly its original aspect. 
The subject of agriculture is beginning to at¬ 
tract considerable interest, although the past win¬ 
ter and spring were unusually dry. Experiments 
have proved eminjntly successful, and there is a 
strong desire among many who came here as mere 
sojourners, to settle permanently in California, and 
gather around them the comforts o’’ a home. It 
is estimated that there are already 25,000 persons 
settled, and devoted to agricultural pursuits. 
In Santa Cruz the crops are universally heavy. 
The wheat could not sustain its own weight, bear¬ 
ing 4 heads to the ounce, and is supposed will 
yield 100 bu>hels to the acre. The potatoes grow¬ 
ing in this valley are very fine and large, some 
weighing 4 and 5 pounds each. 
The project of dividing the State is still urged 
in some of the Southern counties, which were 
once the seat of nearly all the Spanish establish¬ 
ments in this State, but which have most all the 
political importance under the new regime. 
The Indian hostilities have ceased in the South¬ 
ern and Eastern borders and broken out in the 
Northern frontier. 
Still Later. 
New York, Sept. 8. 
The Georgia arrived at 10 o’clock yesterday 
morning. She brings over 400 passengers and 
half million freight. 
The Panama Star of Aug. 19ih, announces the 
arrival on theprevious day of the British Steamer 
New Grenada, with 8,000,000 in silver bullion.— 
The Valparaiso Neighbor predicts favorable times 
for Chili by the election of Montt as President. 
The Hon. Wrn. Duer, U. S. Consul had arriv¬ 
ed at Valparaiso. 
Equestrian Statue of Jackson. —The Wash¬ 
ington Republic says that Mr. Clark Mills, the ar¬ 
tist, has completed, with the highest degree of suc¬ 
cess, all the casting, except that for the horse; and 
preparations are now in progress for re-producing 
in brass the finely developed outlines of the ram¬ 
pant self-poised plaster charger. Unless some un- 
forseen accident occur lie expects to finish the 
statuo by the first of January next. 
New York Market 
NEW YORK, Sept. 7, 6 P. M.—FLOUR.—The low 
grades of Srate and Western flour rattier better with less 
offering. The demand is fair for the East and local trade, 
and moderate for export. Canadian is not pleuty and is 
firm, $1 in bond for No. 1. Domestic has sold to the ex¬ 
tent of 89,000 bhis 3 08@3 91 for M ehigan anil Indiana, 
3 8I@4 for Ohio 3 8!a3 87, 4a4 12 for pure Genesee. South 
ern is steady with a fair home demand. Sales 1200 bbls 
4®t 25 for old and new common. 11 ye flour is a shade 
easier. Sales 150 bbls 3 25a3 31. 
GRAIN—Tlie market less quiet for Wheat, with a fail- 
milling demand and some export inquiry. Sales 8000 bu 
red Ohio at 84, 1500 bu white Michigan on terms not 
made public. Oats are more plenty and are lower Sales 
of old 32135 and new State 37a38'L Rye is quiet, sales 
1000 bu 65. Barley is more plenty and prices tend down¬ 
ward. Sales 1800 bu fair four-rowed at about 75. Corn is 
again better and in limited supply. The demand is fair. 
Sales 20,000 52a59 and 60a61 for Western mixed, tlie for¬ 
mer in store, and 62 for round yellow. 
PROVISIONS--Pork easier and dull; and selling only in 
lots to the trade; some 400 his sold 12 50 for old prime; 
15 25 for old mess; 15 75@15 87 for new moss; 13 25 for 
new prime: beef in good demand and firm; sales 500 his 
1 75® 11 lor mess; 5a6 prime; beef hams held 14; cut meats 
firm but dull; lard in better demand and firm; sales 409 
bis in lots 9® 19 for good to pritue; butter firm and salea¬ 
ble; cheese dull. 
STOCK MARKET—A heavy feeling except for Gov’t 
and State stocks; Erie is now the principal speculative 
.stock; this declined 2 pr ct 1st Bonds; but again rallied at 
the P M; sales at time; sellers option at 1 % pr ct above 
cash prices. 
MuNEY—Is yet scarce for commercial purposes; the 
steamer Herman only took $25.',540 in specia; there is a 
good deal of fear apparently felt by those who have float¬ 
ing funds and which prevents its free use for fixed peri¬ 
ods of time; and yet no one can tell what it is they have to 
fear; the fact of this want of confideuee is the only cause of 
its contincance; to stop the exports of gold would be ap¬ 
parently the only means of exploring the fears alluded to; 
this cannot be done, and we only hope that the heavy re¬ 
ceipt will on arrival have a due effect. 
Albany Market. 
ALBANY, Sept. 6 .—There has been no material varia¬ 
tion in tlie tone of the market since our last. There is a 
healthy business doing in the various branches of trade; 
hut the receipts of produce are not as large as during the 
parallel period of last year. The low range of prices 
compared with that period, has its influence in keeping 
back the staple commodities. 
Flour—The market for common and medium grades is 
quite active and the stock is comparatively light, holders 
are firm at previous prices. There is no change in quota¬ 
tions since yesterday. Sales of various brands foot up 
1400 bbls. 
Grain—The Wheat market is better supplied. There 
have been sales of 2,100 bu Genesee at $1@1 03X; tlie lat¬ 
ter figure for a prime sample. Tlie stock of Corn is light 
and the market is slightly improved. Sales 1,300 bu at 56 
®57c for prime, and 52c for damaged. For Oats the 
market is dull. Sales 6,000 bu at 35c. There have been

Ide’s Blew Grain Drill. 
I ^OR the past two years, Mr. Ide, of East Shelby, Or- 
1 leans Co., N. Y., has turned his attention exclusively 
to Drills; and lie has succeeded in inventing one that can¬ 
not fail to give general satisfaction. 
The subscriber, knowing tlie great loss resulting to far¬ 
mers from imperfcctdrilling, takes pleasure in introducing 
Ide’s New Drill, which he believes to be as much supe¬ 
rior to all others, in its practical operation, as Ide’s Culii- 
vator surpasses every other Cultivator. The Drill will 
distribute Wheat, Barley and Ryein any desired quantity. 
The feeding or distributing principle is considered perfect, 
and tlie subscriber is confident that every intelligent far¬ 
mer will say so, who examines it. It will also plant 
Corn in hills at any required distance apart. The teeth 
are seven and a half inches apart, and placed in two rows 
like the Cultivator. By this arrangementthey are not lia¬ 
ble to clog. This Drill 1ms been thoroughly tested; 
several were put in operation last fall. As the crop de¬ 
pends very much on the Drill, the subscriber hopes that 
every iarmer who wants the best drill, will examine 
Ide’s before purchasing. The Drill is warranted to be 
as good as recommended, and perfectly reliable. 
1’helps, March, 1851. 
Mr. S. R. Tracy: Dear Sir—The Drill I purchased of 
you works to my entire satisfaction. It far exceeds iny 
most sanguine expectations. Lastfnll 1 putiti with it two 
hundred and eight acres of wheat in twenty days. Never 
was there a drill that did better work. In my opinion the 
Feeding Principle is perfect. The arrangement of teeth 
in two rows I found to be a very great advantage. I drill¬ 
ed in many places with ease, where it would iiave been 
almost impossible if the teeth had been in one row only. I 
am acquainted with and have seen five different drills in 
operation, and can say with truth and candor, that I lie’s 
New Drill is the only one that comes fully up to iny ideas 
of what a Drill should be. Yours, &c., 
PETER P. KOCHER. 
Acadia, March, 1841. 
This may certify, that I have one of fde’s New Grain 
Drills, and ain perfectly satisfied with its work. I have 
several fields of wheat put in with this drill, and am con¬ 
fident that every farmer who examines the drilling will say 
it works as perfectly as any Drill can. Having had a poor 
Drill, which I have thrown aside, I can the Letter appre¬ 
ciate a good one. Having tested Ide’s Drill, 1 can recom¬ 
mend it to others as a perfectly safe and reliable Drill.

the subscriber having taken rooms in the ( ould Building,

Reader, perhaps you cannot doa betterthlngnow while 
your mind is upon the subject, then go with your family 
and secure tlie shadow ere the substance fade. How many 
of you have lost a father, a mother, or a little prattling 
child, without a shade of resemblance to recognize their 
features. After tbe separation some little toy or a trifling 
article of apparel is olten kept and cherished for years as a 
token of remembrance, how much more valuable would 
be a well executed daguerreotype of the loved and lost.— 
Are you a parent? What would you not give for a perfect 
likeness of ymytijilf, taken when a child? It would show 
the effects offline and call up many happy remembrances. 
This satisfaefiatyou can now afford to your children, and 
should they luWw|clicd from your embrace by the cold

FIRST PREMIUM 
5?.AULROAB MOUSE POWER. 
T HE above justly celebrated Powers as now made and 
sold by the subscribers, are offered the public with the 
assurance that they are all they are represented—they hav¬ 
ing been very extensively and thoroughly inaoduced and 
tested, side by side, with all the tread powers known, of 
any note in the country, and been preferred. 
The Chairman of the Agricultural Society’s Committee 
on Horse-Powers, in a communication written several 
months after the awarding of premium to the above Horse- 
Power, says: “ I spent much time at tbe late State Fair, 
(Sept. 1950,] at Albany, in examining the various Horse- 
Powers, viz. Wheeler’s, Allen’s, Haul’s, and Emery & 
Co’s, lirsi with the owners and makers, and heard all they 
could say, and again in their absence—and tlie result most 
fully convinced me that vours was the best, and if I want¬ 
ed one, I would give, TWENTY DOLLARS more for 
yours than any others on the grounds; and as you have 
won the laurels fairly, it is just that you should receive a 
full reward.” 
He further says—“ You know from experience that I 
have no sort of partiality for your establishment, and ns a 
committee-man of said Society for years, I have decided 
against you ofteuer than for you; and if others have a bet¬ 
ter article than you, 1 would decide in their favor, if the 
decision ruined your establishment, and vice versa, hurt 
who it may.” 
With the testimony of such men as tbe author of the 
foregoing, when, together with the changeable gearing, and 
other important improvements adopted since last season, 
make it the most convenient, durable, efficient, and eco¬ 
nomical Horse-Power now made; and the public may rest 
assured of heine furnished by us with a superior machine.
