Jfoi'eigi) ]i}feiligej)cc. 
Arrival of the Steamer Franklin, 
The Steamer Franklin, arrived at New York, 
Nov. 10th, with 162 passengers, and Loudon dates 
to October 26th : 
Advices from Odessa state that immense quan¬ 
tities of grain were arriving for shipment. 
A telegraph despatch from Constantinople of 
October 17, announces that the combined fleet 
had passed the Dardenelies and would proceed to 
Constantinople. 
The army in Asia was every day receiving new 
recruits. 
Omar Pacha was at Widin, directing the works. 
He was determined to cross the Danube near 
that place, having a large number of boats and 
pontoons in readiness. 
The bridge between the fortress Widdin and 
the islands opposite, was already occupied by a 
Turkish corps. 
The Russians were marching in great force to 
Kalofat, opposite Widdin. 
A letter from St. Petersburg!! says: The news 
of the declaration of war by the Porte, has pro¬ 
duced a fearful sensation. In the north of Russia 
the army and the civil service were for war, but 
iu the south they were more pacific. 
Nothing like warlike euthusiasm was apparent 
anywhere, though various means had been taken 
to produce it. 
It was rumored at Paris that the text of the 
new Russian manifesto had reached the French 
Government, which contained something very 
insulting to France—characterizing her as the hot 
bed of revolution. 
One of its expositions is said to read as follows: 
“I am in the right. I will defend it, as well as 
the rights of my country and co-religionists, 
against all foreign interference altogether, and I 
shall not stand alone.” 
The cholera had broken out at Jassy. 
The Russians were settling into winter quarters 
at Bucharest. 
The navigation of the Danube is said not to be 
open, the last mail steamer not being able to reach 
her port. 
The English merchants of St. Petersburg!! had 
been assured by the Emperor, through his Minis¬ 
ter of Finance, that their persons and property 
would be protected, and that there was no risks 
ior ships or goods during the present season. 
The British Parliament had been further pro¬ 
rogued to the 29th of November. 
Franck. —The unfavorable accounts of the vin¬ 
tage are confirmed. 
The price of flour and wheat was falling in the 
Provinces. 
The dates from the Cape of Good Hope are to 
Sept. 22J. 
Affairs were getting unsatisfactory beyond the 
borders since the withdrawal of the troops. 
The overland mail had arrived at Trieste, with 
dates from Hong Kong to Sept. 9th, Calcutta 
20tli, and Bombay 28th. 
Hostilities had again broken out in Burmah, 
and instigated by the King of Ava. 
The revolution in China was progressing. 
The Imperialists had had some success at Amoy, 
but the insurrection had invested Khanfung-Foo, 
on the Yellow river. 
The whole country was in a state of anarchy 
and the trade at a stand still. 
The following U. S. vessels were in Simons’ 
Bay, Cape of Good Hope, viz :—Vincennes, F. 
Cooper, John P. Keunedy and the Porpus. 
The Constitution was at Cape Coast Castle, and 
the Marion at Monrovia. 
The American brig Clara was wrecked off 
Sierre Leone, in a tornado.

BUSINESS AND FINANCE. 
The money market has been somewhat easier in our 
eastern cities during the past week, and business pros¬ 
pects are brighter. The two California steamers brought 
over two millions of dollars in gold, and the news from the 
mines is of a very cheering character, promising large 
shipments of the precious metals hereafter. The Collins 
steamer took out [on Saturday last 8101,000 in ingots and 
specie. The large receipts of gold over the exports, in 
connection with a still further advance in breadstuff's, is 
turning the financial tide somewhat in our favor, or at 
least checking its heretofore rapid ebb from our own 
shores. 
The over-trading, over-speculating mania, which has 
raged for two or three years past in our country, is re¬ 
ceiving a salutary check, which under a less favorable 
combination of circumstances would have produced a na¬ 
tional bankruptcy. The millions which the Treasury has 
accumulated, and is now gradually disbursing, the large 
receipts from California, and the foreign demand for 
American breadstuff's and American cotton, are copious 
fountains of supply to the enormous drain made upon 
our finances in payment of our indebtedness abroad.— 
The uncertainty of European affairs, the stringency of the 
money market abroad, and the doubtful character of ma¬ 
ny railway and other securities, have shut down the gate 
for the present on their negotiation abroad, and checked 
the headlong race towards a general ruin of American 
credits. Many new and partiallj finished enterprises will 
suffer from inability to negotiate their bonds, but bitter 
medicines must be taken to cure chronic discuses. Better 
that a limb be amputated, than that the whole body per¬ 
ish. 
The Outgo Bank has not failed, as was reported. The 
story arose from the failure of their redemption agent in 
New York, which was occasioned by his over-speculations 
in railroad securities. The Bank immediately tranferred 
its agency to the Metropolitan Bank, and its bills are now- 
redeemed at their counter. The holders of bills on the 
Patchin Bank of Buffalo will lose nothing if they retain 
possession of them until the bank department makes ar¬ 
rangements to redeem them. There are ample securities 
in mortgages and public stocks deposited with the Con¬ 
troller to protect bill-holders, and they will be wise to 
hold on and not submit to a shave. The bills will of course 
be at a discount at present, in consequence of the cloud 
restiug upon the credit of the bank, but time will set 
things right so far as the redemption of its circulation is 
concerned. 
Money is tight in England, and bullion is moving to¬ 
wards the Continent from the vaults of the Bank of Eng¬ 
land at the rate of half a million pounds sterling a week; 
and the bank officers are talking of another rise in dis¬ 
count rates (now 5 per cent.) iu order to check the drain 
upon their coffers. 
The exports from New York for the week ending Nov. 
12, were about two million dollars, principally in the three 
items of cotton, wheat and flour. 
The stock market is more active, and sales are at an ad¬ 
vance. New York Central Railroad stock is about 111%; 
Erie 76; Hudson River 68; and other stocks in propor¬ 
tion. 
]i|feiHc)eif)ee, &c. 
Arrival of the America. 
The royal mail steamship America, Captain 
Laing, from Liverpool Sept. 29, arrived at Hali¬ 
fax Nov. 11th. cm route for Boston. Dates from 
the seat of war in Turkey are not so late as the 
25th uit., the clay fixed on by the Sultan for the 
commencement of active hostilities. 
But the news nevertheless appears to be deci¬ 
sive as to the fact that a collision between the 
Russians and Turks had actually taken place on 
the Danube, although the latest reports speak of 
a very strong desire on the part of Count Nessel¬ 
rode to still further negotiate on the subject in 
dispute. Yet all indications are decidedly in fa¬ 
vor of war. 
The unfavorable character of the Eastern news 
had but little effect upon the Liverpool Cotton 
market, and prices are not essentially changed 
since the sailing of the Franklin. Sales of the 
■week are 37,000 bales. 
Market for breadstuffs continues active at con¬ 
stantly increasing prices. 
The top price for fine white wheat at Liverpool 
is 11s. 
Western canal flour 37s6d@38s. Ohio 38s6d. 
Indian corn continues to advance, and fine quali¬ 
ties of white have realized in some cases as high 
as 46s. 
The provision market has undergone no mate¬ 
rial change through the week. 
The Manchester market dull, but the favorable 
advices from India have a tendency to maintain 
prices. 
London money market continues as stringent 
as ever, and it has been expected that the Bank 
may be obliged to advance the discount rates. 
All foreign stocks are inactive, aud prices tend 
downward. 
Arrival of the Baltic. 
The Baltic arrived at New Nork, Nov. 14th. 
The latest news by submarine telegraph from 
the continent states that the Turkish cavalry and 
iufantry corps crossed the Danube on the 27th, 
and took possession of Kalafat, aud more are still 
passing. The Russians are still gathering around 
Kalafat, and a collision was expected on the next 
day. 20,000 Turks crossed the Dauube near Ni- 
dan on the 28th, aud occupied Kalafat with col¬ 
lision. The Russians had retreated. 
A despatch has beeu received at London, dated 
Constantinople, 22d, stating that the Austrian 
Envoy had submitted to the Sultan a draft of a 
note from the four powers. Said note had beeu 
previously accepted by Russia. 
The Times thinks negotiations may prevent 
general war. 
Mr. Soule had presented his credentials to the 
Queeu of Spain, and was graciously received. 
Mr. Heap, U. S. Consul at Tunis, died suddenly. 
Liverpool Market. —All articles of provisions 
dull. Demand for wheat and flour mostly runs 
on the best qualities, aud the toue of the market 
follows closely the tenor of the advices received 
from the coast. Quotations may be called :—U. 
S. white wheat, 10s6d@10s lid; red and mixed, 
9s 8d@10s 3d. Western Canal flour, 37s; Balti¬ 
more and Philadelphia, 37s 6d@38s@39s. In In¬

Rural New-Yorker Ofkice, ) 
Rochester, Nov. 16, 1853. y 
The price of breadstuff's again went up during the past 
week, with great activity in the markets, under the influ¬ 
ence of foreign advices by the steamers Franklin and 
America. Flour advanced a quarter of a dollar a barrel, 
and wheat five to six cents per bushel—a few choice lots 
selling here as high as $1,56; but advices, however, per 
steamer Baltic, stating a dullness to exist in the English 
markets, has had a tendency to weaken prices, although 
as yet there has been no actual decline. Flour is quoted 
at $7a7,25, and wheat 81,50@1,54. No change in other 
grains. 
Salt has advanced to $1,81 per bbl and a rumor is afloat 
that the manufacturers at Syracuse (are about to put on 
another sixpence. 
Eggs are three cents a dozen higher than last week. 
Hay unchanged, but more active; tendency in price, if 
either way, upward, at least that is what sellers say.

MOORE’S RURAL NEW-YORKER, 
THE LEADING AMERICAN WEEKLY 
AGRICULTURAL, LITERARY AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 
The Rural New Yorker is the standard journal of its class in America. This is no vain 
assumption, but fully sustaiued by its high reputation, great popularity and extensive circulation. 
As has long been acknowledged by its Patrons and the Newspaper Press, it has no superior as an 
AGRICULTURAL, LITE!RARY AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 
Its leading departments contain more Agricultural, Horticultural, Mechanical, Scientific, Educational, 
Literary and News Matter, than any other paper in the Union — thus rendering it unequalled in 
Variety and Usefulness of Contents. 
Its Literary Department — comprising Tales, Essays, Historical Sketches, Biography, Poetry, 
etc.,— is conducted with taste and discrimination, and embraces a carefully prepared variety of 
CHOICE READING FOR THE HOME CIRCLE. 
Aside from the intrinsic value of its Reading Matter, the ample panes of the Rural are interspersed 
with many Appropriate and Costly Engravings— including illustrations in Agriculture, Horticulture, 
Rural Architecture, Science, Biography, Natural History, &c. 
As a Newspaper the Rural New-Yorker is also most valuable, each number containing the 
LATEST AND MOST IMPORTANT NEWS, 
Briefly yet definitely stated—including reliable reports of the Grain, Provision and Cattle Markets, 
Ac. It is independent and out-spoken—condemning humbug and quackery, and fearlessly and 
faithfully advocating the Best Interests of the Rural Population. In judging of it comparatively, 
remember that the Rural New-Yoekf.r is not a monthly, of only twelve issues yearly, but a 
LARGE AND BEAUTIFUL WEEKLY OF FIFTY-TWO NUMBERS'" 
The Fifth Volume, commencing Jan., 1854, will be printed on New and Handsome Type, and 
otherwise materially improved. An actual increase of over Six Thousand Subscribers during the 
past year, stimulates and enables us to make very liberal expenditures to improve the paper in both 
Contents and Appearance. With an able corps of Associate and Corresponding Editors, (five in 
number,) and many talented and experienced Contributors and Correspondents, the Conductor of 
the Rural is determined to render its whole contents eminently Valuable and Interesting. 
_bs?c' ar ia m*. :vnc zao ;hba 2 jefsl rsvi. o 
Each number of the Rural New-Yorker comprises Eight Double Quarto Pages (forty col¬ 
umns,) printed in the best style. An Index, Title Page, Ac., at the close of each volume. 
for $10 ; Ten for $15 ; Twenty for $'25. As we are obliged to pre-pay the American postage, our 
lowest club rate to Canada subscribers is $1,50 per copy. See Premium List below. 
Now is the Time to Subscribe and form Clubs to commence with the new year and volume. 
We confidently anticipate the continued influence of former Agents and active Friends,—while the 
kind offices of all favorably disposed toward the paper, will be gratefully appreciated. 
Specimen numbers, Premium Lists, Ac., sent free to all applicants. Subscription money, 
properly enclosed, may be mailed at our risk, if addressed to 
November, 1853. D. D. T. MOORS, Rochester, N. V.

J., will understand that he has the best or none. My 
black Spanish are quite late, aud 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, cau 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 bettor suited here than farther east, as the long 
distance on railroad much injuros 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 tlie 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. 
Allen, Black Rock, N. Y.

stems usual to imported plants. 
Dealers tire invited to give a call before making their
