ARRIVAL OF THE ASIA. 
Seven Days Later from Europe. 
The Asia arrived at New Y r ork on the morning 
of the 10th inst. 
Cotton has undergone no change, and the quo¬ 
tations per Canada remain unaltered. Holders 
however meet the demand freely. Transactions 
of the week are 39,500 bales. 
Flour rules firm at the rates current at the sail¬ 
ing of the Humboldt. 
Corn not plenty and full prices were readily ob¬ 
tained. 
Provisions show but little variation. The ad¬ 
vance on lard has checked the movement. 
From every part of the country we have reports 
of the continued abundant harvest. 
Tire establishment of Messrs. Castle & Co., the 
great house that failed a short time since, only 
shows upon the most fitvorable estimate, 2s. 6d. 
on the pound, causing great dissatisfaction to the 
creditors. 
A despatch from Dover, of the 26th, says that 
the sub-marine telegraph is laid to within 3| miles 
of the French coast. 
Lord Palmerston delivered a great speech at a 
public dinner at Deverton, a few days since, the 
subjects of which were foreign politics, domestic 
progress,religious toleration, commercial free trade 
and the approaching extinction of the slave trade, 
all of which were touched on in that style of cau¬ 
tious plainness which is peculiarly his own. The 
Government, he said, felt it their duty to promote 
peace and progress among the nations, and were 
anxious, if supported by the great body of the na¬ 
tion, to persuade other governments, as far as pro¬ 
priety would admit, to extend to other countries as 
much as possible, similar social and political bless¬ 
ings. 
The reply of the Naples government to Mr. 
Gradston, was exciting considerable discussion.— 
The indications of commercial prosperity through¬ 
out England were very favorable. 
A despatch announces the arrival of Kossuth at 
Smyrna, in the Mississippi. 
The London Chronicle learns that the result of 
the meeting of Arctic Officers, Sir Edward Parry, 
Sir James floss and Capt. Bochey, of the Admi¬ 
ralty, was a unanimous expression that Franklin 
had taken the passage to the North-west out of 
Wellington Channel, and that he must be sought 
for by the same route. 
France. —Serious democratic disturbances are 
alleged to have broken out in the Cher, and an 
armed force had left Paris for St. Arman}’. Sev¬ 
eral arrests have already been made, and among 
the prisoners are some who are understood to have 
beeu connected with the great fire at Metarie’s 
iron works. The department abounds in secret 
societies, where oaths are administered. 
The conductors of the Evenment and LaPresse, 
which the government seized a few davs since, 
have been condemned to six months imprisonment 
and pay a fine of 100,000 francs. 
Six missionaries, two French, two German, and 
two Belgians, were about to leave Paris for Oregon. 
The commercial 'accounts from Paris show a 
dull feeling, and the departments are even worse. 
Spain. —Accounts from Madrid are to the 20th 
of Sept. The Government seriously contemplates 
a modification of the tariff. , 
Much activity was observable in the depart¬ 
ments of finance, war and marine, in consequence 
of the Cuba affair. 
Large reinforcements will shortly ship for that 
Island. 
.Marquis Mirafieur has prepared a note to be ad¬ 
dressed to the agents of Spain, in foreign countries, 
in which it applies to sentiments of fair dealing, 
and the laws of nations, and that although unwill¬ 
ing to engage in a war with the United States 
Government, if that war was unavoidable, she 
would not hesitate to abide the consequences. 
Markets. —Brown, Shipley & Co.’s Circular 
says the large arrivals of corn ana flour prevent 
any improvement. White corn is quoted 17s. 6d. 
yellow 26s 6d a27s. Mixed 25 a26s. Western 
canal flour 16s alS; Ohio 18s.; Philadelphia and 
Baltimore 17s- 6d al8s. 6d. 
White wheat 4s. 8d.a5s. The same Circular 
reports a fair business in yarns and goods. 
A Rare Flower. —The first and only speci¬ 
men of the Victoria Regia, a species of water lily, 
ever grown in this country, is now in bloom at 
Springbrook farm, the residence of Caleb Cope, 
Esq., the [’resident of the Pennsylvania Horticul¬ 
tural Society. The seed from which this plant 
was grown was obtained ftom the Royal gardens 
at Kew, in March last, and a hot house was built 
by Mr. Cope for the proper developement of the 
flower. It is growing in a tank 24 feet in diame¬ 
ter, and the whole surface ol the water is now 
covered with the leaves, the largest of which is 6£ 
feet in diameter.— Phil. Ledger. 
Antiquity of Mining in California. —About 
a mile above the town of Porterfield, or lower cross¬ 
ing of Sutter’s Creek, Messrs. Pannly and White, 
while engaged in mining in a flat, at the depth of 
five feet from the surface, discovered a restra or 
mill, such as is now used for grinding quartz.— 
There is every appearance of this strata having 
beenused,as a quaintly of crushed stone was found 
■ in it. Extensive veins of gold bearing quartz and 
rich ravines have been found in this vicinity, near 
one of which, worked by a Mr. Bigelow, this won¬ 
der is to be seen.— Sacramento Times. 
One of the Snakes. —Mr. James Worcester, 
of Rattlesnake Island, in the Winnipisegogee lake, 
killed a rattlesnake a few days since, which 
weighed eight pounds; and measured four feet 
eight inches in length, and seven and a half inch¬ 
es in girth.— Dover Gazette. 
The New York Evening Post says that an ap¬ 
plication will be made to the Legislature at the 
next session, for a further appropriation beyond 
the $15,000 already granted, for distribution 
among the survivors of the New York volun¬ 
teers who served in the Mexican war. That 
amount was fixed, upon the estimate that there 
were but one hundred survivors; when in fact 
there is one hundred and fifty. The commission¬ 
ers appointed to regulate the mode of distribu¬ 
tion, have determined to issue certificates, which 
will enable the holders to draw $12 per mouth, 
each, for the next two years. 
There is already a scarcity of provisions at 
the South, in consequence of the drought. Meet¬ 
ings are held to collect ways and means for obtain¬ 
ing supplies. An Alabama paper says bacon sides 
are now selling at 14 to 16 cents a pound, and the 
whole stock will soon be exhausted. 
ILYThe Postmaster General has established post 
routes throughout Philadelphia. Letters intended 
for the Post-Office, are taken from the different 
boxes and deposited several times a day, without 
charge; and letters intended for other parts of the 
city, are delivered for one cent.— Germantown Tel.

Fruit Farm for r ale, 
f THE well known Langworthy Place, sit¬

from the city ot Rochester and the mouth of_ 
the Genesee river. It js only a half a mile from ihe 
city limits, and the same from the steamboat landing.— 
Bounded on the west by the river; and supposed to con¬ 
tain 40 acres. Thq house is ol strictly collage structure, 
and built of cobble stone; convenient in all its parts. The 
soil or character of the earth is of a sandy or gravely loam, 
pleasant and easy to work, and in a high state of cultiva¬ 
tion. 
The fruit is composed of all the n ost popular kinds 
which are known in the country. It may be said that the 
peach trees, being near a thousand, predominate in num- 
Iters over all others. The whole are in their zenith of 
fruiting. No inducement would tempt me to leave so prof¬ 
itable and rural a place, were it not for u failure of health.

Potatoes,—-White Mercer. 
inn BARRELS of the White Mercer (Seedling) Po- 
1UU tato now offered for sale! This remarkable white 
potato is of almost unparalleled productiveness; of beau¬ 
tiful shape, its proportion much like the long pink-eye, 
being a little more flattened. 
This potato was obtained by the subscriber, from the 
seed of the common Mercer 8 or 9 years since. It receiv¬ 
ed ihe first premium from the N. Y. State Ag. Society, and 
a diploma was awarded for the same by the Monroe Coun¬ 
ty Ag. Society. 
Since that period the White Mercer has attained in Iron¬ 
dequoit, increased popularity with farmers and gardeners, 
to so great an extent, that its only limits of propagation is 
the want of seed.. 1 am credibly informed that one of the 
| largest Hotels in the city of New York, on the reception of 
| a few bushels from a friend, ordered 1,000 bushels, hut 
they could not be obtained. 
The quality and habits of the White Mercer, are, very 
white outside and in; mealy and of good flavor; longer 
keeping than any other potato that I am acquainted with. 
It is a late grower.requiring early planting; and is less sub¬ 
ject to rot than any other potato known in these parts. 
O’” Price, $2,50 per barrel. Orders through the Roch¬ 
ester Post-office, will be attended to.

FIRST PREMIUM 
RAILROAD HORSE 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 introduced and 
tested, side by side, with all ihe 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 IJorse- 
Power, says: “ I spent much time at the late State Fair, 
[Sept. 1850,] at Albany, in examining the various Horse- 
Powers, viz. Wheeler’s, Allen’s, Ham’s, and Emery & 
Co’s, first with the owners and makers, and heard all they 
could say, and again in their absence—and the result most 
fully convinced me that yours 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 as.a 
committee-man of said Society for years, I have decided 
against you oftener 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 the author of the 
foregoing, when, together with the changeable gearing, and 
other important improvements adopted since last season, 
makeitthe most convenient, durable, efficient, and eco¬ 
nomical Horse-Power now made; and the public may rest 
assured of being furnished by us with a superior machine.

up HE inventor after thoroughly testing his engine pump 
JL (for the past two years,) feels confident that it is not 
equalled by any thing now in market, in the way of rais¬ 
ing or forcing water—the motion being rotary, tlie stream is 
constant, without the aid of an air vessel. The packing 
is self-adjusting, very durable, and cannot well get out of 
order. 
These pumps are well calculated for all the purposes for 
which pumps or hydrants may he used, viz., Factories, 
Steamboats, Tanneries, Breweries, Distilleries, Railroad, 
Water Stations, Hotels, Mines, Garden Engines, &c. The 
highest testimonials will be given.
