MOORE’S RURAL NEW-YORKER: AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 
Arrival of the United Stete3. 
_ 1 
NTew Orleans, May 20—The steamship Uni- ; 
ted States arrived here in five days and two hours 1 
from Aspinwall, with San Francisco papers to the ! 
20th April, and a number of passengers brought 1 
to Panama by the Golden Gate. 
The run from San Francisco to New Orleans 1 
has thus occupied but 19 days. 
The California news is of very little importance; 1 
but as we have only two or three straggling pa- 1 
pers, our despatch is necessarily imperfect. 
We find no mention of the amount of gold fa- ] 
ken out by this arrival, but the accounts from the ] 
mines appear to be of a very favorable character. ; 
In the Senate on the 29th of April, the bill for i 
the extension of the city of San Francisco, was 
indefinitely postponed by the casting vote of the ] 
Lieut. Governor. The Legislature was to finally 1 
adjourn on the 11th of May. 
Two fires had occurred at San Francisco, but ' 
were extinguished before any great damage was 
done. 
New discoveries of gold near“ Negro Hill,” are 
reported. 
The agricultural prospects of the State are m a 
very flattering condition. 
The Alta California says, business continues 
dull for the leading articles, with still further de¬ 
pression. There is but little change of prices. 
Flour was rather firmer; but the stock being 
generally heavy there is but little chance of im¬ 
provement in prices. Provisions generally have a 
declining tendency. ( 
The Season and Crops at the West. 
From Michigan, Illinois, and Indiana papers we 
learn that up to the middle of May, the growing 
crops looked well, but that long rains had hindered 
the spring planting. The Joliet (Ilk) “ True 
Democrat” of the 17th, says : 
Wheat, oats, rye, etc., in this section look well 
and promise an abundant harvest. Winter wheat, 
especially, grows finely, and if not injured by the 
rust, which sometimes is the case on account of 
the richness of the soil, the yield will be large.— 
The recent rains have greatly interfered with ar¬ 
rangements for planting corn. None of any con¬ 
sequence has been planted yet. 
The “ Prairie State” of the 13th, says : 
The recent heavy rains have done great injury 
to the corn crop. We understand that a great 
deal of corn plauted just before the wet weather 
set in, will have to be planted over, as it has rot¬ 
ted in the ground. Wheat, oats and grass look re¬ 
markably promising. 
TheMt. Clemens (Mich.) “Gazette” remarks : 
Continued rains prevent the making of many 
gardens but it is believed that fruit of all descrip¬ 
tions never bid fairer than at present in this coun¬ 
ty. Wheat and hay will also be heavy. 
The Hastings (Mich.) “Pioneer,” says that in 
Barry county the wheat crop never looked better, 
and from all sections of the State we hear the 
same remark. 
In Indiana the weather has been very wet. 
TheFondu Lac (Wis.) “Journal” says that 
the wheat crop in that region promises an abun¬ 
dant yield. The Appleton “ Crescent,” Outaga¬ 
mie County, Wis., says the wheat in that vicinity 
looks unusually promising. 
A Girdle Round the Earth.—T he Genoa cor¬ 
respondent of the Newark Advertiser writes that 
among the fruits of the present truce in Europe, 
may be signalized the projected Line of Telegraph 
from London to Calcutta and Canton. The great 
work is already commenced, and the line has been 
actually made from London to Genoa. The gov¬ 
ernment of Sardinia has also just entered into a 
contract with Mr. John Brett, who represents a 
large company of British capitalists — the same 
winch carried the line across the British Channel 
_for carrying it on from the main land at Spezia 
to the farther extremity of the Island of Sardinia, 
in the midst of the Mediterranean; and France 
will see that it is continued thence to the prov¬ 
ince of Algiers on the coast of Africa. The inter¬ 
est that England has in its continuance to her 
rich possessions in the East, is obvious enough 
without specification. 
The New Coin.—T he size of the new quarter 
is the same with the old issues. One side has a 
full length figure of Liberty, with the shield and 
liberty cap, with 1853 beneath. On the reverse, 
the Eagle, as on the old coin, surrounded by rays, 
with “ Quar. Dol.” beneath. The director of the 
Philadelphia mint gives notice that he is ready to 
purchase silver coin at the rate of $1,21 per oz. 
gross for Mexican, South American and Spanish 
dollars, Francs, and all the coins of the United 
States except three cent pieces, $1,01 for thalers 
of Sweden and Germany, and bullion of standard 
fineness at $1,21 per ounce. Parties furnishing 
silver to the Mint, will receive a preference, in ex¬ 
change for the new coin, according to the order of 
priority of their sales to the Mint. 
Tiie Cattle Trade.—T here appears to be a 
great scarcity of cattle in the markets at Boston, 
New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, which is 
attributed to the falling off of supplies from Il¬ 
linois, Ohio and Kentucky. Instead of being ta- 
keen east, the cattle from the west are driven 
across the plains to California, attracted thither 
by an abundance of grass in the way, and better 
prices for beef in California. The St. Louis Re¬ 
publican of a late date gave the names of seven¬ 
teen trains about starting, which were to take 
with them about 9,000 head of cattle. This new 
market for cattle must enhance prices in the At¬ 
lantic markets, and will induce farmers to devote 
more attention to the raising of stock. 
War with Mexico.—T he iV. Y. Times thinks 
the dangers of another war with Mexico imminent, 
and says:—“ Without receiving the indications of 
a Mexican difficulty at anything more than their 
lowest, value, we are obliged to think them serious 
and alarming. In the feelings of neither Gov¬ 
ernment is there one conservative element. Both 
seem to be on the qvivive for a conflict. There is a 
ground of quarrel, and a quarrelsome mood on 
either ; and in such circumstances, we may, at the 
shortest notice, find the unfinished business of 
Buena Vista aud Cherubusco on our hands, with 
the sober necessity of finally quenching that ig- 
nusfatuus of Santa Anna, Mexican nationality.” 
The Cochineal Crop. —A correspondent of the 
New York Herald, writing from Guatemala, says 
that the unusual heavy raius have nearly destroy¬ 
ed the cochineal crop, and that it will not amount 
to one-fourth its annual product.
