MOORE’S RURAL NEW-YORKER: AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 
Jjonip Jtotcl&gflUfc. 
Arrival of the Ericsson and Arabia. 
The Ericsson arrived at New York at noon, 
and the Arabia on the evening of June 13th. 
From the seat of war there is nothing new. 
The excitement in regard to American affairs 
was increasing in England. The London 
Times says, in reference to the recognition of 
Padre Yijil. If seems as if the demand on one 
side and concessions on the other had reached 
their utmost limit, and suggests that the United 
States should send to Clarendon a special em- 
bassay or accredit the present Minister with 
plenipotentiary power to settle the dispute ami¬ 
cably. There is a rumor that Lord Elgin will 
be sene as plenipotentiary to Washington. An¬ 
other rumor says Sir Henry Bulwer will be the 
envoy. 
The Earl of Elgin moved in the House of 
Lords for dispatches relative to troops for Can¬ 
ada. This led to some remarks by Lord Clar¬ 
endon, who explained that in declining to re¬ 
call Crampton no new facts were elicited in 
reference to the state of affairs with the United 
States. 
Palmer the poisoner has been found guilty 
and sentenced to death. 
Denmark is putting her fleet into an effective 
state. A letter from Berlin says :—That Prus¬ 
sia is desirous that the government, instead of 
following the example of Russia and Sweden, 
in regard to capitalization of the Sound Dues, 
should wait and take the same course adopted 
by the United States. 
A new Russian loan is spoken of, part to be 
offered in London and the balance in Hamburg. 
It will amount to 100,000,000 silver rubles; the 
interest of which is fixed at 4 per cent. The 
loan is principally for the construction of rail¬ 
roads in the interior and partly to furnish in¬ 
demnification for Sound Dues. 
It is stated the Spanish government will take 
energetic measures against Mexico to enforce 
justice to Spanish citizens. 
Liverpool Markets.— Breadstuffs are dull 
and lower. YVheat except choice qualities is 
neglected. Flour is in small compass, but quite 
equal to the demand. The large consumption 
of Indian corn, usual at this season, continues 
to be met by overwhelming supplies. YVheat, 
white 10s. to 11s.; red, 9s. to 10s.; common was 
dull and slightly lower in the only part of the 
week. 
J. S. McHenry’s circular says, of Provisions, 
a large business has been done in bacon this 
week by auction at an advance of Is. to 2s. In 
beef nothing new to report. Pork is dull and 
begins to drag. 
CaMorara fiMigcnxt 
Provincial Items. 
The British gun boat fleet is to be immediate¬ 
ly fitted with masts and spars, and made ready 
for a voyage across the Atlantic under sail.— 
Their destination is the Canadian lakes. 
The estimates of expenditure for the current 
year, as determined by Parliament, amount to 
$6,200,000. This includes $200,000 towards the 
erection of public buildings in Quebec, $340,000 
for common schools, and $116,000 for a war 
steam service. The revenue for 1856 is esti¬ 
mated at six millions of dollars. 
The creditors of the Buffalo and Brantford 
Railroad Co. have resolved to accept fifty cents 
on the dollar. It was this or nothing. 
The Toronto Globe is boiling with indigna¬ 
tion at the dismissal of Crampton and the con¬ 
suls. Here is a specimen :—“ Britain and her 
officers are in the right, even more than we al¬ 
ways knew them to be ; and if the spirit of the 
nation be not dead, they will claim with a voice 
of thunder such reparation as shall convince the 
American people that henceforth they must en¬ 
trust their public affairs to men that are neither 
drunkards nor knaves. An indignant world 
will justify their demand.” 
Will not some one hold the Globe man ? 
There are in circulation one dollar bills on 
the Bank of Upper Canada, altered to twos.— 
The fraud can readily be detected if the bill is 
carefully looked at. 
A large number of heavy guns and mortars 
of the Crimean siege train, and the reserve 
ammunition from Balaklava, are ordered for 
shipment to Canada. The regiments on the 
way, and those under orders, bring with them 
all their wagons and camp equipage. 
Mackenzie’s message states that the Legisla¬ 
tive Council of Canada have reported the Pro¬ 
hibitory Liquor law, which was lost last year, 
with some modifications. They state that in 
289 petitions, 72,357 petitioners have asked for 
relief from the spread of intemperance; that 
intoxication is the parent of crime; that licences 
are improperly granted, both as to persons and 
places. 
Shipwreck and Loss of Like.— The ship Pal¬ 
las, Capt. Spitland, from Cork, for Quebec, with 
120 passengers, sighted off the coast of Cape 
Breton, on the morning of May 10th. By varia¬ 
tion in her compasses, she mistook her course, 
and at night struck on the breakers at St. Pauls 
and bilged, the sea washing over her. The 
passengers became panic stricken, and rushed 
into the boats, which sank almost instantly. 
Seventy-two persons were drowned. In the 
morning the Superintendent of the Island sent 
off boats and rescued the remaining passengers.

Arrival of the Daniel Webster and 
George Law. 
The Daniel Webster, from San Juan, arrived 
at New Orleans June 11th, and the Geo. Law, 
from Aspinwall, arrivedat New York June 13th, 
bringing San Francisco dates to April21st, and 
$2,000,000 in gold. The outward bound passen¬ 
gers of the George Law left Panama on the 31st 
of May, on the Golden Gate. 
The brig Quadrator went ashore, at Goose 
Bay, May 4. Mr. Simpson, of San Francisco, 
and Mrs. McDonald aud child, were drowned 
in attempting to reach the shore. The steamer 
Golden Age, with the New York passengers of 
April 20, had not arrived at San Francisco. She 
was six days over due, aud fears were enter¬ 
tained that she had met with an accident. 
Great excitement existed at San Francisco in 
consequence of the assassination of James King, 
editor of the Bulletin, by a man named Casey. 
The affair occurred on the 14th, and King died 
on the 16th. Casey was arrested and commit¬ 
ted to prison, but the citizens had become very 
much excited in the matter. A meeting of the 
old Vigilance Committee was called, and plac¬ 
ards of an inflammatory nature were posted, 
calling upon the citizens to take the law into 
their own hands. On the 18th, a large force of 
citizens completely organized into divisions and 
companies, armed with muskets, marched thro’ 
the streets from the committee rooms, and taking 
possession of the jail, took Casey together with 
Corey, the gambler and murderer of Richard¬ 
son, and carried them to the committee room. 
The attack of the Vigilance Committee on 
the jail was made with military order. A corps 
of 2,500 armed men were around the prison. A 
brass 18 pounder was pointed at the door, and 
when all was ready for the assault, the Com¬ 
mittee made a formal demand upon the Sheriff 
for the surrender of the jail. The Sheriff being 
totally unprepared for the resistance, surrender¬ 
ed immediately. 
The prisoners were both tried before a tribu¬ 
nal of 29 jurors, and sentenced to be hung.— 
They were to be executed on the day following 
the funeral of King. The excitement was great 
throughout the streets, and thousands of men 
were ready to hasten to the assistance of the 
revolutionists in the city. 
Markets. —The market is dull; the business 
houses were all closed on the afternoon of the 
murder of Mr. King. Haxall flour $14J4 ; Gal- 
ego, do. Butter 45 cents. Lard Vi%. 
American Enterprise.— One of Hoe’s cele¬ 
brated six-cylinder printing presses—with ex¬ 
perienced workmen to superintend it—was sent 
from this city by the Ericsson, on the lOthinst. 
It is to be used for printing Lloyd’s Weekly 
Newspaper, iu London. This is a large first 
class weekly journal, having a circulation of 
140,000 copies. The time Avas when we used 
to import our printing presses from London, but 
the tables have turned in our favor, aud we are 
paying back our debts with compound interest. 
—Scientific American. 
The Camels. —It has become quite a com¬ 
mon sight to see camels and dromedaries march¬ 
ing through our streets. The camels are now 
employed iu carrying government freight from 
Powder Horn to the depot. They carry the 
enormous weight of 1,600 pounds, and with the 
greatest ease. They are certainly not hand¬ 
some creatures. A horse, in a brisk trot, can 
scarcely keep up with the camels when in a 
walk. They apparently go slow with their 
long measured tread, but in reality they are 
moving rapidly .—Texas paper. 
In the removal of the French Court to St. 
Cloud, the Emperor aud Empress rode in an 
open vehicle, attended only by a few outriders 
in livery ; but the imperial infant was guarded 
by an escort of cuirassiers.

Rochester, June 18, 1856. j 
There is no grent change hi the wheat and flour trade, al¬ 
though the price, if anything, is a little stiffer. Two cargoes 
of prime white Canada wheat were on the market a day or two 
since, brought from Bond Head. They were held at $1,65, but 
we have not heard of a sale being effected. Oats are a cent per 
bushel lower; other grains unchanged. 
Spring lambs begin to come in for the butchers, the trade 
sale for which is $1,75 to $2 each. 
New Cheese is in the market at 7@8c per lb. 
Clover Seed has fallen greatly from early spring prices ; it 
now sells wholesale at $6(3)6,50. Not a load of hay was in the 
market yesterday when our reporter called at the scales ; the 
low price offered and the busy season keep farmers away. 
The new clip of wool begins to come in, hut that offered in 
the street is not in large lots nor of the best quality. One of 
our dealers showed us his book on which the lowest price paid 
was 28c, aud the highest 36c. He would pay three shillings for 
a good article of merchantable wool. We were shown a letter 
from an extensive wool house in Boston to a buyer here, in¬ 
structing him not to pay above last year's prices, aud prophe¬ 
sies that August markets will be lower than the present. Of 
course that is the opinion of an iuterested party, hut is entitled 
to some weight. Market quotations from other cities on the 
other hand speak cheeringly of the prospect.
