MOORE’S BUBAL NEW-YORKER: AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 
foleip jijfelligeijce. 
Arrival of the Canada. 
New York, Nov. 25—10 A. M. 
The Canada arrived at Halifax in the A. M. of 
the 24th, and started for Boston, at 1 P. M. 
The steamer Washington arrived at 6 P. M., on 
Thursday. Her news is anticipated. 
Russia has formally declared war. Several bat¬ 
tles have been fought and well contested. The 
Turks are everywhere victorious, in Europe and 
Asia. 
The following is an official despatch from the 
French Consul, dated Nov. 6tli: 
On the 2d and 3d iust., the Turks crossed the 
Danube from Turtukai to Olpenitza, to the num¬ 
ber of 18.000. On the 4th, Gen. Parlof attacked 
them with 9.000 men, and after a brisk cannon¬ 
ade a combat with bayonets took place. The 
Turks maintained their position at Olpenitza and 
have fortified themselves. The combat lasted 3 
hours. In it the Russians lost several officers and 
136 privates; and 6 superior officers, 18 subal¬ 
terns, and 176 privates wounded. 
The loss on the Turks side not known. There 
are rumors of several other movements of the 
Turks at different points along the Danube, and 
by the destruction of a Russian steamer at Hor- 
sola, but these reports, though probable, do not 
rest on sufficient authority to state as facts. 
Selim Pasha has crossed the Russian frontiers 
to Asia and a battle has taken place near Bat- 
tonm. 5,000 men were engaged, and both armies 
fell bank as night came on. 
On the 20lh of October, Maskel Bey, an officer 
of Selim Pasha’s Staff, with a sm ill force was sud¬ 
denly attacked by a body of Russian cavalry. He 
fell back fighting towards the maiu body of the 
Turkish army and the battle speedily became gen¬ 
eral, 15,000 Russians were engaged in it. 
After hard fighting, the Russians were defeated 
and fled pursued by the Turks, who planted the 
Sultan’s standard at the Russian’s position. The 
Russian force defeated were driven back to Buch¬ 
arest, where the main body of Russians under 
Gen. Danevbery, were from 30 to 40,000 strong. 
If this be true, the news is summed up thus : 
The Turks have beaten the Russians in Asia. The 
Turkish left wing in Europe has beaten the Rus¬ 
sian’s right,comprising their principle force, while 
the Turkish centre has whipped 9,000 Russians 
at Turtuckai and is now pressing in upon Buch¬ 
arest. 
The following important news from India has 
beeu received by telegraph from Trieste : 
The Czar has formed an alliance with Dost Mo¬ 
hammed to proclaim war against British India, if 
Great Britain persists in supporting Turkey. A 
large Russian force is to iuvade Bukharia, and the 
Persian army is collecting in the valley of Solta- 
ria, to co-operate with Russia against Turkey. 
If this is confirmed, the British Parliament will 
assemble forthwith to devise measures to avert 
the danger which threatens India. 
From other sources, we learn that Persia is not 
hostile to Turkey. 
The British fleet at Spithead is ordered to be 
ready for sea on the 11th, but its destination is 
not stated. 
The Humboldt reached Southampton on the 
5th, having been detained two days by an acci¬ 
dent, to her machinery. 
The Canada reached Liverpool on the 6th—the 
Atlantic ou the 9th. 
France. —The trial of the couspirators in the 
Opera plot was proceeding. It seems to have 
been really a plot to assassinate the Emperor. 
Liveri’OOl Market.— Breadstuffs were dull in 
the early part of the week, but recovered towards 
the close. Wheat was reported in moderate de¬ 
mand at nearly the currency of last week. 
United Slates and Canada flour in good request 
at full previous prices. 
Indian corn held firmer at former quotations. 
Brown and Shipley quote Western Canal flour 
at 36@36s. 6d. for good. Philadelphia, Baltimore 
and Ohio, 37@37s. Gd.; U. S. white wheat 10@ 
10s. 8d.; red 9s. I0d.@10s. 3d. 
White Indian corn 46s.; mixed 46s. 6d. 
Bacon, dull and lower, prices accepted to effect 
sales. Lard in small stock and holders firm for 
an advance. Pork unchanged. Tallow in limit¬ 
ed demand and declining. 
Ashes in moderate inquiry, at barely previous 
rates. 
Iron market was very firm. Common bars £8 
@8 5s. Rails £8 5s.@8 10s. 
Arrival of the Atlantic. 
The steamship Atlantic, from Liverpool on 
Wednesday, l6tl, with 100 passengers, arrived at 
New York, Nov. 29. 
We have details of the recent affairs at Olpen¬ 
itza, which was a brilliant Turkish victory, and 
1200 Russians killed and wounded. 
More or less fighting goes on daily. 
The Turks have now nearly 100,000 men across 
the Danube. 
The Russian commander, Georschakoff, has re¬ 
ceived orders to act on the defensive. 
The Turkish fleet is in the Black sea, and the 
French fleet in the sea of Marmora 
Russia lays an embargo on the Turkish ship¬ 
ping from the 22d inst. 
Neutral flags will be respected. 
The Circassians continue to have success in Asia. 
Napoleon expresses himself strongly in favor of 
active operations to aid Turks, but the British 
government evidently vascilates. 
Prussia notifies, that it reserves to itself liberty 
of acting in eastern affairs. 
Austria proposes neutrality. Shanghi was cap¬ 
tured by Chinese insurgents on the7lh Sept. 
Breadstuffs. —The general tone of the market 
is stronger—fair but not excited. Business done 
in wheat and flour at fall previous currency.— 
Middling descriptions of wheat might be quoted 
and Id per bush, dearer aud choice qualities of 
flour 6d per bbl. dearer. Indian Corn dull at 46s 
for white and 45s for yellow. 
Provisions. —Bacon quiet; shoulders in moder¬ 
ate request; cheese saleable at a decline of 2s3s. 
Beef of favorite brands had more attention ; 
pork very dull; lard unchanged; tallow very 
steady at the recent decline. 
Vienna despatches says:—On the 11th, the 
Russian commander moved forward to Olpeuitza 
to chastize the Turks. A pitched battle ensued. 
The Russians were compelled to retreat a second 
time in disorder on Bucharest, having lost in four 
attacks on Olpenitza 3,000 men. 
On the 9th the Turks were driven from the 
Island opposite Guirgero. Reinforcements after¬ 
wards came up, when they re-took the Island and 
held it. 
The Czar has summarily discharged all Eng¬ 
lish operatives from the Russian navy yards. 
Divested of the “ great seal” and the official 
names, the Proclamation of Gov. Farwell, of Wis¬ 
consin, runs as follows, and is the shortest on re¬ 
cord : 
“ It is hereby recommended that Thursday, 
the 24th day of November, instant, be observed 
in the State as a day of Thanksgiving.’*

BUSINESS AND FINANCE. 
The money market lias again become comparatively 
easy. The temporary pressure lias been removed, and 
the elasticity characteristic of American financial, as of all 
other departments of physical economy, has again stimu¬ 
lated every department of business to an increased activi¬ 
ty. The California news is of the most cheering' charac¬ 
ter, and new and rich deposites are daily discovered by the 
miners. The gold shipped from San Francisco on the 
first of November, reached the very large figure of two 
million, seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars, of which 
amount the steamer Illinois, arriving at New York on the 
29th ult., had on board SI,000,000. 
The ship Bavaria has brought to New York from Aus¬ 
tralia §120,000 in gold, which is the first direct consign¬ 
ment from that new field of the precious metals. A large 
quantity of American goods have been heretofore shipped 
thither, and we may look hereafter for other gold con¬ 
signments in return. 
The steamer America took out to Liverpool S450.C00, 
and the Pacific about the same amount; in addition to 
which a small sum has been exported in sail vessels, ma¬ 
king the total of a million. The Sub-Treasury balance 
still diminishes; the deposite in New York, having fallen 
below five and a half million. 
The imports of the week, other than dry goods, reach 
©1,422,615, making of dry goods and miscellaneous $2,- 
000,000. The exports of the week, of produce, reacli ©1,- 
640,( 00, including 86,000 bbls. Flour; 362,000 bushels of 
Wheat, aud 22,000 bushels Corn. 
The cashiers of those hanks, of which large defalcations 
were reported last week, have each for his own institution, 
written a denial of the statement, declaring that the rumor 
has not the slightest foundation in fact. The report ori¬ 
ginated in the columns of the New York Herald. 
Returns from a large number of the leading railways 
show a large increase in business over that of any previ¬ 
ous year, which indicates the prosperity not only of the 
roads themselves, but of the whole country. Progress 
and Prosperity are the “ watchword and reply I”

Rochester, Nov. 30, 1853. 3 
Prices have stiffened somewhat since last week. Wheat 
is quoted two or three cents higher, aud corn and oats in 
proportion. Other marketable commodities find ready 
sales, but at nearly previous rates of quotation. 
The fine open weather, which yet continues, is very fa¬ 
vorable, and great activity is manifested in our streets._ 
No ice in the canal as yet, and forwarding by water is still 
going on. If a change occurs in the weather, so as to shut 
up navigation soon, a slight decline may be expected in 
the produce market, in consequence of the enhanced price 
of forwarding by cars.

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 sustained 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, LITERARY 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, 
(fee.,— is conducted with taste and discrimination, aud embraces a carefully prepared variety of 
CHOICE READING FOR THE HOME CIRCLE. 
Aside from the intrinsic value of its Reading Matter, the ample pages of the Rural are interspersed 
with many Appropriate and Costay Engravings —including illustrations in Agriculture, Horticulture, 
Rural Architecture, Science, Biography, Natural History, (fee. 
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-Yorker 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.

A COMPANION TO THE “ DIARY OF A PHYSICIAN.” 
DR. WARREN’S GREAT WORK, 
THIS DAY PUBLISHED, 
The Old Doctor; Or, Stray Leaves from my Journal. 
Being Sketches of the most interesting Reminiscences of 
a retired Physician. 
[From the Rochester Daily Advertiser.] 
The Old Doctor has been received. The New York 
press speak in terms of flattering commendation of this 
book, and we have no doubt, justly. 
The author prefaces au introduction chapter by saying, 
“ The following narratives are brief sketches of scenes 
that have actually come under the observation of an emi¬ 
nent Physician of this city, in the course of a long and ex¬ 
tensive practice.” The public do not require to be re¬ 
minded, for every one knows from experience, that to 
the Physician the most secret thoughts of the heart are 
laid bare, in the hours of sickness, danger and death, and 
he thus necessarily becomes acquainted with those pecu¬ 
liar idiosyncrasies of the human mind which are sealed 
to most other men. We have no doubt the book will 
prove of marked interest, aud will add, that it is neatly- 
printed and beautifully illustrated. 
6,000 COPIES SOLD IN TWO WEEKS.

During the past year the Proprietor of the Rural N ew-Yorker has paid nearly Fifteen Hundred

JANUARY PREMIUMS ! 
1. TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS, in CAsn, to 
the person sending us the largest number of sub¬ 
scribers, according to our terms, previous to the 
1st day of January, 1854. 
2. FIFTEEN DOLLARS, in Cash, to the per¬ 
son sending the second largest number, as above. 
3. TEN DOLLARS, in Cash, to the person ; 
sending the third largest number as above. 
Persons competing for these Premiums 
must mail their remittances on or before the 31st 
of December. They are not excluded from the 
April prizes, so that one person may secure One 
Hundred Dollars, in Cash ! 
[In order to give Subscribers, Local Agents 
and Post-Masters a fair and equal chance, travel¬ 
ing agents, post-riders and citizens of Rochester 
are excluded from competition for any of the j 
above Premiums.] 
SPECIFIC PREMIUMS ! 
In order to reach and reward every one who may 
lend a portion of influence in support of the 
Rural New-Yorker, we offer to those who do 
not compete for either of the preceding prizes, the I 
following liberal gratuities: 
Ornamental and Domestic Poultry. 
T HE subscriber having invested a large amount in this 
business, is now prepared to fill any orders which he 
may receive. The celebrated Brahma, Sumala, 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. B. P. Johnson, his stock imported last year, ’52,from 
the best breeders in England. All who well know Col. 
J., will understand that he has 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, &e. 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.
