Arrival of the Persia. 
The steamer Persia arrived at New York on 
29th ult. She made the passage in about 9*^ 
days, and brings 130 passengers, and dates 
from Liverpool and London to the 16th of April. 
The Ericsson sailed from Liverpool on the morn¬ 
ing of the 15th. 
The news is unimportant. The chief feature 
is the close of the Conference at Paris, and the 
postponement of the debate in Parliament on 
the American question until the return of Lord 
Clarendon. A civic banquet was given in Lon¬ 
don to Mi\ Dallas. Lord Panmure’s explana¬ 
tion why troops are being sent to Canada, and 
the slight defeat met by government on the 
grant to Maynooth College, had strengthened 
rumors that Parliament would shortly be dis¬ 
solved. 
Markets.— Breadstuff's are depressed. Flour 
has declined 6d to Is. Wheat declined 3d.— 
Corn unchanged. The weather is favorable. 
Beef is quiet; Pork and Bacon firm ; Lard in 
demand at a slight decline.

Flour remains at last week’s figures ; best white wheat is 
quoted five cents lower, but the demand for poorer qualities is 
very limited and prices nominal. 
Barrel Fork is in better demand, and prices have advanced 
a dollar since last week. Butter plenty at 12% cents, but eggs 
which were quoted at 10 cents, hare gone up to a shilling. 
Hat is not in so good supply as heretofore and consequently 
the pulse of the market beats higher. No essential changes 
have occurred in other respects.

The Illinois arrived at New York ApriL^pth, 
with 900 passengers and $2,000,000 in treasure. 
The Indians in Oregon continue their hostili¬ 
ties, and have recently made several attacks 
upon the whites. They had captured the steam¬ 
er Mary, on the Columbia river, and killed a 
large number of citizens at Cascades, and de¬ 
stroyed the town, and were at last engaged in 
fighting the forces at the Block-house. 
At Connell’s Prairie, in Washington Territory, 
the volunteers had a skirmish with the Indians 
killing forty and routing the remainder. 
The mining returns from California promises 
as large a yield as last year. 
Ex-Senator Foote has withdrawn as the 
American nominee for the Senate of the United 
States. 
The drouth which had prevailed throughout 
California for two months, had given place to 
copious showers. In the Southern counties it is 
feared that the pasturage will be insufficient to 
sustain the cattle throughout the summer. 
It is said that the Mormons are making a re- 
connoisance of the Colorado river, with a view 
of getting supplies from the Pacific shores. 
Another strong movement has been made in 
California to open a line of weekly posts to 
Missouri. 
There is a brisk trade springing up between 
San Francisco and the Russian Possessions. The 
ship Cyane sailed on the 26th ult., with a large 
assorted cargo for the Possessions. 
The money market at San Francisco on the 
day the steamer sailed was very stringent, and 
there were universal complaints of unsatisfac¬ 
tory collections. The produce markets were 
generally dull, with the exception of flour and 
grain, of which there had been large speculative 
transactions at advanced prices. Gallego is 
quoted at $14,50. Hams, 15 cts.; butter, choice, 
45 cts.; lard 20 cts.; pork $13,50 per barrel. 
Arrival of the Orizaba. 
The steamship Orizaba arrived at New York 
April 29, with dates from San Juan de Nica¬ 
ragua to the 21st. The defeat of Col. Sclilessen- 
ger at Santa Rosa is confirmed. About 70 of 
his men are reported as missing. During his 
trial by court martial, while on parole, he de¬ 
serted, and it is supposed he went over to the 
Costa Ricans, having sold himself to them be¬ 
fore the battle. 
On the 7th inst., the Costa Ricans took pos¬ 
session of Rivas with 2,000 men. On the 11th, 
Walker with 600 men attacked them, and after 
a fight of seventeen hours he was obliged to 
abandon the'eity for want of ammunition. The 
Costa Ricans are said to have had 600 killed 
and a large number wounded, while Walker’s 
loss is set down at between 50 aud 60 killed, 
and about eighty wounded and missing. 
The El Nicaraguan, Walker’s organ, claims 
that it. is a glorious victory. 
It is said that the Costa Ricans, on taking 
possession of Virgin Bay, fired indiscriminately 
at every person they saw, killing eight or ten 
American citizens in the employ of the Transit 
Company. On the 10th, Lt. Green, with ten 
men, had an encounter with about 200 Costa 
Ricans, 18 miles above the mouth of the Serea- 
gaui, killing 27 of them, and dispersing the rest. 
The American loss was only one killed and two 
wounded.

The subscribers would not bo so reckless as to assert that 
theirs is the “largest Importing House in the country,” if New 
York, Boston and Philadelphia are included within the limits, 
but they beg leave to insinuate that since they commenced 
business they have imported more seeds from England and 
France than any other firm in this city, and have had “ all oth¬ 
er seeds in the same proportion;” but thanks to their many 
customers, they did not have, on the 18th inst., “in store” and 
“ offer to trade,” 10 tons of imported seeds, and all other seeds 
in the same proportion ; but please bear in mind that they 
have enough in store, Fresh and Genuine, to meet all reasona¬ 
ble demands, and at honest prices. 
We publish no “whoppers” to catch “gulls,” and it follows 
that we will not humbug our customers. 
Ten tons ! and all other seeds in the same proportion ! Take 
care, brother, we fear your professions will not keep you out 
ot the warm place the good Book tells about.

In calling the attention of farmers to my Machine, for the 
coming harvest, I take great pleasure in speaking of'its still 
increased merits over any previous year's manutacture, and 
in recommending it as now improved and perfected as bein' 1 - a 
Combined Reaper and Mower, adapted in every respect to the 
wants of farmers who have use lor such an implement. 
I have so shortened the rear part of the platform aiid frame 
as to make the delivery easy. The reel post on the left side of 
the machine is made higher, the wing board wider mid longer, 
and have put in internal gear. Tile raising lever is lengthened, 
and the driver’s seat set further back, which so balances the' 
machine as to rid the horses of all weight upon their necks_ 
and have the utmost confidence in recommending it as the best 
Combined Reaper and Mower in uso.

A CHRONOLOGICAL SCHOOL HISTORY OF THE UNI¬ 
TED STATES, illustrated by painted plates of the four last 
Centuries, prepared on the principle of Bem's Chart of Uni¬ 
versal History, by Mies Elizabeth P. Peabody. Duodeci¬ 
mo in size. 
The publishers would iuvite the attention of all wishing to 
commence classes in the history of the Uuited Stntes, to^the 
following nattering commendation, given after having read the 
work in manuscript, by Prof. J. H. RAV.VIUN1), LL.D., lateof 
the University ol Rochester, and now Principal of the Poly¬ 
technic School, Brooklyn. 
"It affords me peculiar satisfaction, to learn that Miss Pea¬ 
body has undertaken to prepare a work on the history of the 
Uuited States for the use of schools. I certainly know of none 
who combines in such large measure, the rare talents and ac¬ 
quirements, both natural and moral, which such an undertaking 
requires. The Chronological method of Bum, which she incor¬ 
porates in her plan, I have long regarded as out of sight supe¬ 
rior to any other scheme of Chronological Mnemonics ever invented. 
I think you cannot do ajbetter thing for schools—I should also 
hope for yourselves—than to put it in type.” 
The venerable Dr. NOl’T, of Union College, having also ex¬ 
amined the manuscript, and expressed his cordial approbation 
of the history, adds,—" The plan of this work is calculated to 
excite and sustain the imagination, not merely by appealing to 
the eye, in impressing its chronology, but also by a graphic 
outline ot tile history ot each Colony, and of the Federal Union, 
in such a manner as to preserve their respective individuali¬ 
ties and peculiar spirit."

These Readers aro used in tho principal cities and villages 
throughout the United States, and are rapidly coming into use 
in tho smaller towns of the country. Their merits have been 
fairly tested, and they have universally been pronounced supe¬ 
rior to any series of Readers extant, not only for the improve¬ 
ment in the system of teaching, which is the word method ; 
but also in the high moral and inspiriting character of the 
pieces selected. The author, Mr. Webb, was recently from the 
State Normal School at Albany. 
They are the best Practical Readers that have come under no¬ 
tice ; they are all and every thing they should be 
Hon. s. S. RANDALL, Deputy State Supt. Com. Schools. 
Webb’s Readers aro the best books of their kind for our 
schools. D. M. CAMP, Ex-Governor of Vermont. 
I am happy to commend Webb's Readers to the favorable re¬ 
gard of all Educators, Ac. ’I-B-BOYI), 
Author of Rhetoric, Moral Philosophy, Ac. 
We have used “Webb’s Normal Readers,” and believe them 
superior to any with which we are acquainted, and would 
cheerfully recommend their general adoption to all of our 
schools. ROSMAN INGALLS, and 
E. S. INGALLS, Teachers of Select School. 
Having used “Webb’s Normal Readers," we believe them to 
possess many advantages over any other series of Readers 
which has come under our notice, and would therefore recom¬ 
mend their introduction into the schools of Binghnmpton.

Dear Sir, —Having somewnat carefully examined “ Webb's 
Normal Readers,” i have no hesitation in saying I consider 
them to rank high among the best Practical Readers that have 
come under my notice. We have lately introduced two num¬ 
bers into some of our public schools of this city, which have 
thus iar given good satisfaction. D. S. HEFFRON,

To the Committee on Text Books of tho Board of Education: 
Dear Sir, —Having learned that tho Committee of which you 
are Chairman are about to recommend a new series of Readers 
for the use of our Schools, allow me to express the hope that 
you will give Webb's Normal Series a favorable consideration. 
From what I know of these Readers, and from the testimony 
of others in whom I have the fullest confidence, I believe them 
to be superior to any of those now in use in our Schools, and 
hope to see their claim acknowledged by a speedy and general 
adoption. Very respectfully yours, 
THOS H VALENTINE,

up to this date it has not experienced a single loss. 
Syracuse, Dec. 1855.—VVe have examined into the organiza- 
tion ot ihe Syracuse Insurance Company," located in this 
city. Its business is confined to the insurance of detached 
private dwellings, their usual out-buildings and contents, and 
the persons composing it are jointly and severally liable fertile 
payment of losses to the full extent of their associated aud in¬ 
dividual property, both real and personal. 
This we regard as tho safest and most reliable basis upon 
winch ail Insurance Company can be organized, and being per¬

the association, and knowing them to be gentlemen of high 
character, and of responsibility, we take great pleasure in re¬ 
commending it to the confidence of the public.— T. B. Fitch,

BEST MACHINE IN USE. 
1 (the first) used In 1852. 
40 used successfully In 1853. 
800 in twenty different States In 1854. 
1200 In all parts of the Union in 1855. 
8000 building for the harvest of 1850. 
There are six good reasons for this unparalleled increase 
and great popularity .-1st It is strong and reliable, and easily 
managed. 2d. It saves the hard labor of Raking. 3d. It saves 
at least another hand in binding. 4th. It saves shattering by the 
careful handling in raking; besides, the straw being laid straight, 
it is well secured in the sheaf, and does not drop in the after 
handling, and the heads are not exposed in the stack, so that 
the grain saving even exceeds the labor saving. 5th. It is a 
rai, i° Wer ' , be .’,! lg P ne °f the best convertible machines in use. 
6th. It has a knife that does not choke. 
Its other excellencies, to numerous to mention here, are fair¬ 
ly given in the circulars. Its intrinsic worth is.also attested by 
the award (mostly in only 3 years) of 
OVER TO FIRST PREMIUMS! 
Price-Reaper and Mower, $200,-$75 on its receipt, $75

tor advance payment. 
To secure a Machine, order immediately. Though so little 
known the past season, and none ready for delivery till 1st May 
yet not two-thirds the customers could be supplied. The repu!
