Arrival of the Arctic. 
The Collins steamship Arctic arrived at New 
York Oct- 30th, bringing dates from Liverpool 
up to the 19th. 
The Eastern Question. —The Turkish decla¬ 
ration of war had been received at Odessa. It is 
a temperate and high spirited document. It does 
not levy embargoes on Russian ships, and fully 
protects all rights of commerce. 
Constantinople is tranquil. Part of the Russian 
army will go into winter quarters at Bucharist on 
the lower Danube. Russian subjects in Turkey 
are placed under Austrian protection from Oct. 1st. 
Austria and Prussia have re-called their subjects 
from Turkish service. 
When the Czar heard that Turkey had declared 
war, lie fell into a fury, and swore that he would 
wage a war of extermination, against the Turks. 
Omar Pasha had notified the Russian Command¬ 
er to clear out of the Principalities before the 25th 
inst., or he would commence hostilities. It is not 
supposed that the fighting will commence on the 
Danube, but in Georgia or the Black Sea. A bat¬ 
tle was fought on the 27th ult., between Shamyl 
and the Russians, in which the Circassians retired 
to the mountains, with a heavy loss on both sides. 
The mail steamer from Constantinople, Oct. 5, 
had arrived at Marseilles, and reported from Besi- 
ka Bay that the fleets were preparing to enter the 
Dardanelles. Admiral Dundas had sent his wife 
home to England, out of the way of danger. On 
the 31 inst. the Russian fleet arrived at Odessa 
from Sebastopol, to embark troops, as was believ¬ 
ed, for Redoutkale. 
The East Indies. —Reports from Ava are very 
unsatisfactory to the British. More war is threat¬ 
ened by the Burmese. China advices continue to 
report the successful progress of the rebels north¬ 
ward, but do not offer any remarkable incident. 
Disasterous floods had occurred at Canton, doing 
much injury to the rice crops, and causing scarci¬ 
ty. The export of teas shows an increase of four 
million pounds over same period of last year, and 
all from Canton. 
The Japan expedition returned from Jeddo 
Aog. 17th, having met with a friendly reception. 
Com. Perry had an interview with two Imperial 
Princes ; also delivered the President’s letter, and 
is to call next spring fora reply. The Americans 
and Japanese parted with expressions of good 
feelings. 
Liverpool Markets. —Breadstuff's were active, 
and had still further advanced. American flour 
sold freely, Philadelphia and Baltimore bringing 
35s fid and held for 36s ; Western Caual, 34s fid 
@35s. Wheat was in extensive demand for con¬ 
sumption and speculation, at 2d advance over 
rates of Friday preceding ; fine white American 
was quoted at 10s 4d. Indian corn was cpiiet, 
with price unchanged, and supply moderate. 
Arrival of the Niagara. 
The Royal mail steamship Niagara, from Liv¬ 
erpool on Saturday, the 15tli ult., arrived at Hali¬ 
fax at 1 o’clock Thursday morning, Oct. 27th, 
with one week later dates from Europe. 
The Collins steamship Arctic, from New York 
on the 1st ult., arrived out Weduesday morning, 
the 12th. 
The Eastern Question. —The Sultan has an¬ 
nounced that if the Russians do not evacuate the 
Principalities within fifteen days, Turkey will 
consider it as a case of declared war, and will act 
accordingly, but will not at present cross the 
Danube. 
The proclamation of war is posted on all the 
mosques. The Sultan has invited the combined 
fleets up to Constantinople. The Black Sea is 
free to neutral flags. 
The Latest Received at Liverpool. — The 
Paris police have made a search for Kossuth in 
the house of M. Kif, a Hungarian. Kossuth, how¬ 
ever, was not there. 
Louis Napoleon is reported to have stated on 
the 12th ult., that unless Russia yields there must 
be war. 
A letter from Turin says, the Piedmontese 
government had refused to admit M. Foresti, a 
naturalized American, as Consul for the United 
States, alleging that he is a disciple of Mazzini’s. 
Corn may be imported into the Papal States, 
duty free, until February next. 
The Emperor of Russia has authorized the free 
importation into any part of Finland, of all the 
materials for equipping ships. This privilege to 
endure for five years. 
A Paris correspondent writes, that in the pri¬ 
vate Constantinople letters the Eastern question 
is examined in every point of view, and the con¬ 
clusion unanimously come to is, that there is no 
escape from war. 
Russian agents are actively at work, stirring up 
insurrections in Turkey. 
A number of English officers, most, if not all, 
belonging to the Indian service, are moving be¬ 
tween the Turkish camps, and a number are also 
now on their way to Constantinople. 
The Paris correspondent of the London Globe 
says:—“ Notwithstanding all that we hear of 
preparations for war, the impression here that 
peace will be preserved is very general. The 
numbers of offers of aid to the Turkish govern¬ 
ment from Poles, Hungarians, &c~, is almost in¬ 
credible. The offers are not confined to the refu¬ 
gees in France—they have come from the United 
States, from Hungary, Poland and Italy.” 
In England breadstuff's had recovered from last 
week’s decline, and closed firm with an upward 
tendency. Western Canal flour 33s fid ; Ohio 34s 
6d@35. Yellow corn 40s fid ; White 41s. White 
wheat 9s 8d@10s2d ; Red 9s 7d. 
Provisions—Beef good at 95@ 100s. Pork, small 
business, but firm at 72sfid for mess. Lard steady 
at 58s@60s. 
Ashes active—Pots 30s, Pearls 28s. 
Mrs. Laura Starkweather, of Alabama, N. Y. 
on the 24th of October took through mistake, a 
dose of oxalic acid, supposing it to be Epsom salts. 
She lingered until four o’clock in the afternoon, 
when death terminated her sufferings. It appears 
that a neighbor had used the acid in bleaching 
straw bonnets at the house of Mrs. S., and haying 
a little left, had thrown it upon a shelf, (Mrs. S. 
knowing it at the time,) and that Mrs. S. saw it 
there not long since, and having forgotten the cir¬ 
cumstance, supposed it to be Epsom salts, which 
it. somewhat resembles, and again laid it aside.— 
Feeling somewhat indisposed, she concluded to 
take a portion of salts. The horrible result adds 
one more victim to the incautious use of poison¬ 
ous drugs. She was a most estimable woman, in 
the prime of life, beloved and respected by the 
community at large, and almost idolized by her 
husband and friends. 
A private letter from Ireland states that 
Father Cahill, the celebrated Irish Roman Cath¬ 
olic priest, is shortly to visit this country with a 
view of checking the defection of the Irish from 
Romanism. 
MOORE’S RURAL NEW-YORKER: AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 
6oh)h)ePci^l. 
BUSINESS AND FINANCE. 
The money market is somewhat easier since the last 
report. The Nicaragua steamer Northern Light has ar¬ 
rived with $1,380,585 in California gold on board, and 
the Panama steamer Ohio, with $1,125,000 more. Exports 
by the Canada were $280,000, and by the steamer Atlantic 
$190,000; and it is also stated, that two millions of tho 
newly arrived treasure is destined for immmediate trans¬ 
mission abroad, to pay our foreign indebtedness. During 
the months of September and October, the exports of 
cotton and breadstuff's, from the port of New York, was 
near seven million dollars, which is three and a half mil¬ 
lion over tlie same time of 1352. The Sub-Treasury bal¬ 
ance in New York stiil decreases under tlie disbursing 
process for the redemption of the public stocks. The 
balance in the treasury of that city is about seven and 
a half million, being three and a half million below tlie 
high:st point in September. 
Breadstuff's under recent advices from abroad, have 
again gone up, ar.d an active demand for shipment is an¬ 
ticipated. The undoubted short crops in many of tho 
European countries, the anxiety of governments to lay in 
stores against the contingencies of an anticipated war, tlie 
prohibition against exporting and tlie admission of grain 
dutyfree, into many foreign ports, all conspire to enhance 
tlie price of American produce, and afford to the pro¬ 
ducer an ample reward for his industry. If the American 
farmer does not pay his debts, improve his farm, and lay 
up money under tho present (to him auspicious) aspects 
of atfairs, he never will. While the trader is complaining 
of tight times and going into tlie market for money at 12 
per cent., the farmer can command cash for all he has to 
sell at a very high price. 
Stocks have gone up also since last week. New York 
Central lias risen to 110@M2; Erie 72(5)71; Hudson River 
66 ; Central 6 per cent, bonds 92, and other stocks and 
bonds in proportion. They seem to have touched the 
owest point and are slowly recovering from their depres¬ 
sion. Banks limit their discounts as yet, and refuse good 
paper, both from inability to discount it and extreme cau¬ 
tion against contingencies which may arise hereafter.

Rochester, Nov. 2, 1853. j 
Foreign advices by the recent steamers have had tlie 
same effect in Rochester markets as upon the markets 
elsewhere, and Wheat and Flour have both advanced. In 
addition to foreign news, there are also local influences 
tending to stimulate our market. The river, which has 
been very low for some weeks past, is now swollen by the 
recent rains, and till the mills are in active operation. A 
disposition is manifested among millers, however, to drop 
Genesee wheat at present prices, and run the mills on 
Western. The canal is in good navigable order, with wa¬ 
ter full bank, and there is great activity in freights. The 
price of wheat rules from ®1,38@1,40. Flour $6,38(5)0,50. 
Other grains at last quotations. 
Wool—W ool is dull and lower, 'prices ranging from 35 
@15c. Sheep pelts are gradually advancing in prices, in 
consequence of tlie increased value of tlie staple of wool 
produced; prices $1@1,25. Lambs do. $0,50@1,00. 
Lard has advanced half a cent per pound. Other arti¬ 
cles of produce nearly the same as last quotations. 
Flour barrels are higher, ranging from 35 to 40c.

THE PREMIUM slkaIV GUTTER,

1 MIIS admirable machine is so constructed that it can 
.. be used lor cutting hay, straw or corn stalks. The 
adjustable mouth-picce, peculiar to this machine, is so con¬ 
structed that simply on the turning of a vut with the 
thumb and finger so adjusts as to keep the cutting part at 
all times in perfect order. 
The Churn Attachment, as will be seen in the above 
cut. js applied to the common dash churn—and is simple, 
perfect and labor-saving.

I S prepared to furnish inventories, to post-paid appli¬ 
cants, of the present very extensive slock of Nursery 
items, consisting in part of 
120,000 Dwarf and standard Pear Trees. 
90,000 Apple Trees. 
50,000 Peach Trees. 
30,000 Plum, Cherry and Apricot Trees. 
Over 100,000 Hardy Evergreens. 
Also, extra large Northern Spy Apple Trees, Dwarf and 
Standard Pear, Cherry, &c\, &c. 
Also, for immediate effect, a large quantity of extra 
sized Ornamental Trees, among which are fine specimens 
of Norway Spruce, Silver Maple, Pawlonias, Catalpas, 
Mountain Ash, Horse Chestnut, &c. 
And a fine selection of Weeping Deciduous Trees. Or¬ 
namental Shrubs, Hybrid Perpetual Roses, together with 
such novelties as may be classed strictly hardy. Also a 
very limited assortment of half hardy plants of small size, 
such as Cryptomcria Japoniea, Cedrus Deodara, &e., &c. 
The amateur wishing prime fruits of well established 
repute, or the agriculturist needing fine cropping, tho¬ 
roughly tested varieties, may rely upon the most careful 
execution of their orders. 
The Ornamental items are entirely grown in the Nur¬ 
sery, consequently none of the heavy losses are sustained 
that usually occur to recent imported subjects. 
The Evergreens are very robust and admirably furnish¬ 
ed to the surface of the ground, none presentingthe naked 
stems usual to imported plants. 
Dealers are invited to give a call before making their 
pu rcha ses.

tW PEOPLE’S COLLEGE OI*’ THE STaTE 
of New York, Incorporated April 12, 1853.— This Insti¬ 
tution lias been chartered by the Legislature of this State, 
for the purpose of reducing the expenses of Academic and 
Collegiate Education, and thereby open the Halls of Sci¬ 
ence to all classes of society by reducing the cost of tuition, 
board and clothing, and enabling the student to defray the 
greater part of the expense in labor. 
Provision will be made to educate young men corpo¬ 
really and mentally for specific purposes, by pursuing full 
and definite courses of study for each of the pursuics re¬ 
presented in the College—either Agricultural, Mechanical 
or Professional—and thus graduates will be qualified for 
entering at once upon the business of their choice. 
At a regular meeting of the Trustees named in the Char¬ 
ter, held at Owego, on the 25th day of May, the following 
appointments were made: 
D. C. McCallum, of Owego, President of the Board of 
Trustees. 
A. I. Wynkoop, ofChemung, Vice President. 
Tracy Morgan, of Binghamton, Treasurer. 
Harrison Howard, of Lockport, Secretary and General 
Agent. 
Agents are being commissioned in each county of the 
State, that the .people may have ail opportunity to contri¬ 
bute to the capital stock, which is distributed in shares so 
small that every individual may become interested in an 
institution which commends itself to the favorable consid¬ 
eration of every intelligent person. 
For further information upon the subject, application 
may be made, post-paid, to the Secretary, who will send a 
pamphlet containing the act of incorporation and objects 
of the Institution, and ether needful information. 
188-tf H H OWARD, Secretary. 
The undersigned, having been appointed Agent for 
Rochester and Monroe county, will be most happy tofur- 
nish any new information desired, in reference to the Col¬ 
lege, to receive stock subscriptions, (the shares are one 
dollar each.) or to address audiences, on invitation, ex¬ 
plaining at length the plans and objects of the People’s 
College, and also as lie views the idea of a true education. 
Respectfully, G. F. NEEDHAM. 
Ornamental and Domestic Poultry. 
I tHE subscriber having invested a large amount in this 
business, is now prepared to fill any orders which he 
may receive. The celebrated Brahma, Sumata, Game, 
Palmer, Marsh and White Shanghais, with many other 
popular varieties, are from the yard of C. C. Plaisted, Esq., 
Great Falls, N. II., and of course cannot be surpassed in 
the world. My Imperial Cochin China Fowls are from 
Col. K. P. Johnson, his stock imported last year, ’52,from 
the best breeders in England. All who well know Col. 
J., will understand that he lias the best or none. My 
black Spanish are quite late, and will not be ready for 
market before next spring. They are from Mr. John 
Giles, late imported, the best blood in the country. These 
birds are so fast coming into repute that the price will 
doubtless run high for some years to come, as will also be 
the case with the Brahma, Sumatra, Game, &c. All per¬ 
sons purchasing fowls from me, can enjoy the benefit of 
my advertising, in case they wish to sell Chickens- next 
year. 
I am quite sure that our southern and western fanciers 
can be better suited here than farther east, as the long 
distance on railroad much injures the health and growth 
of the fowls. 
As there are many fowls in market which have no claim 
upon the public favor, I will give my patrons something 
more tangible than my own words, for 
“ If self the wavering balance shake, 
It’s rarely right adjusted.” 
I am therefore permitted to refer all who entertain any 
scepticism, to the following gentlemen :—Col. B. P. John¬ 
son. Secretary N. Y. State Agricultural Society, Albany, 
N. Y.; Hon. Ambrose Stevens, N. Y. City; Hon. Lewis F.

THE JUVENILE INSTRUCTOR, 
BY UNCLE LUCIUS, Syracuse. 
1 SEMI-MONTHLY PAPER, expressly for children. 
It aims to attract their attention by simplicity and 
beauty of style, and to infuse into the young mind appro¬ 
priate sentiments of piety and love for parents—sympathy 
for human suffering, and an abiding hatred of oppression 
in all its forms. It ought to be circulated over the entire 
Union, for this last reason. There is much at stake in 
the question of freedom, and but little said or done to ef¬ 
fect favorably the youthful mind. Within (lie State of N. 
York, the postage' is 6 cents per year, paid at the office 
where it is received. In all other States, 12 cents yearly. 
In packages of 24 or more the postage, if pre-paid at the 
office of publication, is about 4 cts on each paper. 
Price per year—single copies, 25c.: Five to one address
