MOORE’S RURAL NEW-YORKER: AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 
Jmxip fiMigmte. 
Arrival of the Niagara. 
The steamer Niagara, from Liverpool, Nov. 
8th, arrived at Halifax on the 20th. 
England.— An address had been presented 
to Lord Palmerston by the President of the 
Liverpool Chamber of Commerce, expressing 
satisfaction at the happy settlement of the dif¬ 
ficulties with the TJ. S. The substance of 
Lord Palmerston’s reply is, that while there 
was much cause for irritation in settling these 
matters, and while England was desirous that 
the United States should labor under the im¬ 
pression that John Bull was not afraid of war, 
yet it was deemed best to effect a settlement on 
the best terms possible. 
Lord Palmerston had made two speeches at 
Manchester, in defence of his foreign policy.— 
In one of them he said : 
“ I hope the peace will be lasting, but its en¬ 
durance must depend on the fidelity with which 
its conditions are fulfilled. If that power which 
proked hostility faithfully carried out the treaty 
then no doubt peace would long be preserved.” 
The Directors of the Bank of England, had, 
by a majority of one, adopted a resolution not 
to make any change in the rates of discount at 
present. 
The British Government advertises at Lloyd’s 
for a ship to convey some hundreds of emi¬ 
grants to Nova Scotia, it being the intention to 
grant free passages to laborers and their fami¬ 
lies to that Colony. 
France.— Rumors continue of a probable 
modification id the Ministry. It is said that M. 
de Persigny’s visit to the Emperor is connected 
with these rumors. 
The Emperor continues the gaieties at Com- 
peigne, where his third and last batch of guests 
have just arrived, including the Ministers of 
Russia, Sweden and Holland, and Marshals Pe- 
lissier and Paraguay D’Hilliers. 
The event of the week is a semi-official edi¬ 
torial in the Constitutionnel on the questions at 
issue between the Freuchand English Govern¬ 
ments. This article speaks plainly, and says : 
“ The presence of the naval squadron of Eng- 
lond in the Black Sea and of the Austrians in 
the Principalities is henceforth only an arbitra¬ 
ry and violent means of preventing a solution 
of the difference which Russia has been the 
first to propose in offering to submit the ques¬ 
tion to its natural judges. Is it desired rather 
to have recourse to arms ? Is war again de¬ 
sired ? Does the English Ministry itch to eater 
again upon hostilities without France—not cer¬ 
tainly to assure the execution of the Treaty of 
Paris, but imprudently to rend it in pieces in 
the face of the world, with the object of satis¬ 
fying an ambition that had been for the mo¬ 
ment disguised. We repeat, it now depends 
upon the Cabinets of London and Vienna to put 
an end to the pending disputes, and to termi¬ 
nate the anxieties to which the present situa¬ 
tion gave rise. Let the consent to the re-as- 
sembling of the Plenipotentiaries be given 
without making arbitrary and inadmissable 
exclusiveness a condition — exclusion which 
would completely change the character, and be 
an additional breach of the treaties. Let us 
add, that if a peaceful solution is desired, this 
is the only proposal for that purpose that can be 
decently made.” 
The condition of the Bank of France had 
shown no improvement. 
Treaties of commerce between Russia and 
France, and railway treaties between Rus*’» 
and ri*i.=oici Were in procuration. 
Prussia.— Letters say that the relations be¬ 
tween France and Russia are becoming closer, 
there being talk of but two policies, that of 
France, Russia and Prussia, against England 
and Austria. Such talk, however, is of little 
value. 
It is also said that a new treaty of commerce 
is settled between Russia and Prussia, with a 
view to international railway communication. 
Private statements say that Prussia agrees 
with France and Russia in requiring that the 
Austrians shall evacuate the Danubian Princi¬ 
palities, and the English fleet leave the Black 
Sea. 
Russia.— The concession of the Russian rail¬ 
way to the credit of Mobilier was signed Oct. 
23d. The company undertakes the construc¬ 
tion of 3,800 versts of railway in four routes.— 
First from St. Petersburg to Warsaw, repaying 
to the government the eighty million francs, 
which the 300 versts already constructed have 
cost, and undertakes to complete the line.— 
Secondly, from Moscow to Theodosia, 1.356 
versts; thirdly, from .Moscow to Novgorod, 390 
versts; fourthly, from Koursk to the port of 
Libau. These lines must be completed in ten 
years, and the Russian Government guarantees 
five per cent. One-third of the shares will be 
allotted to Russia. The shares will not be 
quoted on the Paris Bourse. The capital of the 
company is 270,000,000 roubles. 
Commercial Intelligence. 
Liverpool Breadstupfs Market. —The market for 
breadstutls generally had been quiet. The Broke™’ Circu¬ 
lar calls wheat inactive, and 3d lower. Flour dull and 
quiet, with a slight decline on the inferior qualities— sbv 
about Gd per barrel. Corn without essential change.— 
Messrs. Kicnardson, Spence & Co. quote as follows Red 
wheat 8 9d@9sld; white wheat 9,s6d@10sld, closing dull 
especially for white. Western Canal flour 30@33s; Balti¬ 
more and Philadelphia 32s6d@33s6d: Ohio 35 k@37s; Cana¬ 
dian 35-@37s, with a dull tone at the close. Mixed com 
33s; yellow 33@33s6d; white 35s, closing inactive. 
A Munificent Donation. —It has been stated, 
and confirmed by a Chicago paper, that the 
Central Illinois Railroad Company has been 
able to realize enough from the grant of public 
land by Congress to build its road, at au expense 
of twenty-five millions of dollars, and there is 
still land enough left to produce the sum of 
twenty millions of dollars, if sold at the market 
value. This is beginning to excite attention in 
the old States, and Congress will probably be 
asked to make an equitable distribution of the 
remainder of the public domain. 
A Great Honey Crop.— Mr. M. Quinby, of 
St. Johnsville, Montgomery Go., N. Y., has sold 
this year upwards of 20,000 pounds of honey, 
principally produced by himself, and the re¬ 
mainder by a few neighbors who have followed 
his example. Himself and son make the pro¬ 
duction of honey a business, and undoubtedly 
a very profitable one. The honey is deposited 
by the bees in small, cheap boxes, with glass 
sides and ends, and sold in the same by weight, 
including the weight of boxes. 
A Good Sign. —The newspaper having the 
largest circulation in Texas is devoted to the 
cause of Evangelical Religion. The three lead¬ 
ing Seminaries of learning in the State are 
under the control of Evangelical Church Organ¬ 
izations. 
A Yankee at Sebastopol. 
We notice a statement, in a late Boston paper, 
to the effect that Mr. John E. Gowen, of that 
city, who is now in Russia, has just entered 
into a contract with the Russian Government to 
raise the ships-of-war and other vessels, fifty- 
two in number, sunk in the harbor of Sebasto¬ 
pol at the time of the seige. It will be remem¬ 
bered that Air. Gowen, under contract with our 
own Government, succeeded, after repeated ef¬ 
forts of the British engineers had failed, in 
raising the wreck of the United States steamer 
Alissouri, burned and sunk in the harbor of 
Gibralter. Mr. Gowen will commence opera¬ 
tions in the harbor of Sebastopol next spring. 
Many of our Buffalo readers will recollect the 
visit of Air. Gowen to this city, some two years 
since, and the success which followed upon his 
attempts to raise the sunken hull of the ill- 
fated Erie. Although much time, money and 
ingeniously directed labor had previously been 
expended upon the object, no compensating re¬ 
sults had followed upou the efforts of any of 
the adventurers, until Mr. Gowen undertook the 
task, when the hull was raised, a large amount 
of coin and other treasure taken from the 
wreck, and the secrets of that ocean prison- 
house were laid open, after a concealment of 
many years. 
The household utensils even, of the unfortu¬ 
nate emigrants who perished by the disaster 
which involved the loss of the Erie, were res¬ 
cued from their graves; and tons of the humble 
implements of domestic life were displayed to 
the gaze of curious eyes. Here, and there, too, 
occurred among the debris, a charred fragment 
of human bone, touching memento of the night 
hoiror. 
We have no doubt that Mr. Gowen will suc¬ 
ceed in this ^new undertaking, as he has here¬ 
tofore, in all similar ones confided to his skill. 
And in that success will he find the fulfillment 
of his prophecy, made to us and to our then as¬ 
sociate, when the news of the sinking of the 
ships at Sebastopol reached here. “ If I live,” 
said he, “ I shall some day have the contract for 
raising those vessels.” May abundant profit 
and renown wait upon the energy and enter¬ 
prise of this “live Yankee ”—Buffalo Express. 
A Sam Patch Leap. —A short time since, as 
Mr. D. West was passing the falls near South 
Troy, Vt., with a span of three year old colts 
and a double wagon, his colts took fright and 
rushed down a steep bank 30 or 40 feet in 
height, through a mass of underbrush, and 
plunged headlong into the Missisquoi river.— 
Being freed from the wagon, they swam into 
deep water, and one was carried over the falls. 
The height of the falls is estimated at thirty 
feet. The colt was buried beneath the spray, 
and it was supposed by all that he was killed, 
but he was soon discovered ten or fifteen rods 
below the falls, lodged against a ledge. He 
was taken from the water and led up a steep 
bank—a task which most horses would have 
failed to accomplish—and safely lodged in the 
stable .—Burlington Free Press. 
Religion in America. —It is estimated by the 
Rev. Dr. Baird, that “ including the Roman 
Catholic priests and the Unitarian, Universalist 
and other heterodox preachers, there is in the 
United States one preacher for every 810 souls.” 
The average salary of.these preachers is $500 
per year. More than 1,000 new church edifices 
are erected every year I Dr. Baird also esti¬ 
mates that 18,000,000 of the 26,500,000 people 
in the United States in 1855, were under the 
instructions and influence of the “ Evangelical” 
churches > <ind 4,000,000 ox o^ooo^nnn muior tho 
influence of the “ non-Evangelical” bodies, of 
which the Roman Catholic is by far the most 
numerous. The total cost of public worship in 
the United States, annually, is set down at 
$25,000,000. 
A new line of screw steamers is about to be 
established between London and Valparaiso. 
The first ship, the Chile, of 1,000 tons, will sail 
on the 20th of November. She will proceed 
from Valparaiso to Coquimbo and Caldera, and 
will also forward passengers to the principal 
ports of Peru. 
Smoking in Cities. —There is one city in the 
world, aside from Boston, where smoking in the 
streets is prohibited. In Warsaw, (Poland,) 
street smoking has for sometime past been in¬ 
terdicted, and several persons arrested and 
fined for an infraction of the regulation. 
Affairs in Kansas. 
We obtain the following items relative to 
matters in Kansas from the Herald of Freedom, 
published at Lawrence, K. T. : 
The Delaware Trust lauds were appraised at 
from $ l 25 to $12 per acre. City lotsiu Leaven¬ 
worth, twenty-five hundred in. number, are ap¬ 
praised from two to ten dollars a piece—the 
average being about three and a half dollars 
per lot. It is said that an association of specu¬ 
lators have completed arrangements for buying 
the whole track. 
Twenty of the one hundred Free State pris¬ 
oners, under indictment for murder, at Le- 
compton, have been convicted of manslaughter, 
and sentenced to five years imprisonment at 
hard labor. 
Our streets have been thronged with teams 
for the last few days, and Lawreuce has appear¬ 
ed like a busy commercial mart. The ferry, of 
which there are two at this place across the 
Kansas, call persons from all parts of the coun¬ 
try to this point, as it is probably the best and 
safest place for crossing the river for many miles 
in either direction. Trade has revived with 
the interior, and confidence, to a great extent is 
restored. We are happy to chronicle these 
facts, and trust the day is far distant when the 
tocsin of war will be again sounded in our 
thriving city. 
Stone masons are in great demand in this 
city at the present time. 
There are no less than nine Aledical Schools 
and Colleges of various kinds in the city of 
Philadelphia. There are upwards of 1,500 
students in attendance at the present time.

Rural New-Yorker Office, ) 
Rochester, Not. 27, 1866. $ 
The prices in our Flour and Grain markets remain un¬ 
changed, with but little doing in Wheat. Transactions to a 
considerable extent have been effected in Barley, hut the sup¬ 
ply and demand are so equalised, that no alteiation in rates 
has occurred. 
The Provision market, with one or two exceptions, exhibits 
a decline. Pork, dressed, has fallen off 75c(g$l per cwt.; Mess, 
new, can be bought at $18. Lard declined l@l}£c. Apples are 
on the sliding scale upward—good varieties readily bringing 
$1,25 perbushel. We hear of sales superior at $4 per barrel.— 
Potatoes have advanced, Eastern buyers being in the market, 
best qualities are worth 62%c per bushel. 
Hay is advancing—best quoted at $15.

PRESCOTT'S 
ROBERTSON’S CHARLES V. 
HISTORY OP THE REIGN OP THE 
EMPEBOll CHARLES THE FIFTH. 
BY WM. ROBERTSON, D. D. 
WITH A 
CONTINUATION, 
Treating of the Cloister Life of the Emperor after his 
Abdication. 
BY WM. II. PRESCOTT. 
In 3 vols 8vo. With a fine portrait tngraved from Titian. 
Uniform with “ Ferdinand and Isabella,” “ Philip II ” 
“ Conquest of Mexico,” etc., etc. 
The life of the Emperor in tho convent of Yuste was imper¬ 
fectly known at the time when Roberison wrote. Mr. Prescott, 
in gathering materials from the roya archives of Simancas, for 
his History of ilie reign of Philip II., obtained, at the same 
lime, minute information concerning the last rears of the roval 
recluse ; and the work thus completed fills a chasm in Spanish 
History, between the reign of Ferdinand and Isabella and that 
of Philip II. There is, therefore, a propriety in offering it to 
the public, uniform in style and price with the preceding works 
of the historian of the Spanish monarchy.

THE COMBINATION PATENT PORTABLE. 
UPRIGHT STEAM SAW-MILL. 
This Mill commands the universal admiration of saw-mill 
men everywhere. As its merits become known ihe demand 
for it increases. Orders are coming from every section of this 
country, Canada, Cuba and South America. It is suited for 
every section of the world wherever there is timber to be 
sawed, no matter of what character, how hard, how large, or 
how small. Two extensive manufactories are now engaged in 
building these Mills, yet it is nlmost impossible to turn them 
out as fast as they are wanted. They embrace several valua¬ 
ble patents and improvements, and combine all of the following 
advantages: 
(“SlMFuiOITY.-Bolh the mill and power are so simple in 
their construction that any one of ordinary mechanical ability 
can comprehend them, put them up an i run them without dan¬ 
ger or difficulty. 
PORTABILITY.—The whole establishmt nt can be very 
quickly taken apart and put together, thus rendering ite-sy 
to bo moved from place to place as desired, and saving the 
necessity of drawing the logs a long distance to the mill 
DURABILITY.—Itis constructed in the mostsolid and sub¬ 
stantial manner, runs perfectly still, is not liable to get out of 
order, and will last for years w ithout repair. 
RAPIDITY.—It will saw faster than any other Upright Mill. 
The speed of the saw is about 360 strokes per minute and the 
feed from one-eighth to three-quarters of an inch per stroke. 
Thus, at a medium feed, the saw will cut through a log 24 feet 
long in about three minutes. From this data anyone knowing 
the character of the timber can calculate how much it will do. 
EFFICIENCY.—It does its work well, cuts smoother and 
straightcr than the ordinary mills, and the arrangement of the 
saw is such as to render it utterly impossible lor it to run out of 
lino. 
CHE APNES3.—The entire cost of the Mill, with fourteen 
horse pewer, and everything all complete and ready for run¬ 
ning, boxed and delivered for shipment in this city, is only 
J51,650. 
The Mill requires less power to drive it than any other mill, 
and the power furnished is sufficient to drive extra machinery 
with it. 
TAGGART’S PATENT SHINGLE MILL. 
Self-feeding and capable of sawing out from twenty to thirty 
shingles per minute in the very best manner. 
This is the cheapest and most efficient shingle mill there is 
constructed. 
RICE’S PATENT SPRING GUIDE. 
A new method of operating circular saws, entirely obviating 
the most serious objections in the use of circular saws. 
The subscribers also furnish 
PORTAI4LF, GRIST MILL,

HOT WATER WARMING APPARATUS. 
FOR GREEN HOUSES. 
The Subscribers have, at a large expense, perfected an ap¬ 
paratus for effectually Warming Green Houses, however 
large, in the severest weather, and with the most economieal 
consumption of fuel. Fully aware of the difficulties which 
Florists and Horticulturists have experienced in their vain en¬ 
deavors to prevent their Plants from freezing on account cf 
the imperfect modes of warming now much in use, we have ta¬ 
ken the trouble to give our apparatus a fair test during the 
past winter, (as the following testimonial will show,) an with 
che most satisfactory results. We shall be happy to set d, by 
mail, estimates fo» putting up our apparatus, to all whe will 
send us drawings showing ground plan of their Green Hon os

purpose designed, and have warmed our Green Houses in this 
manner during the past severe winter, having no trouble in 
keeping the houses as warm as we desirod, while the ther¬ 
mometer ranged from 15 to 24 degrees below zero outside, and 
the fuel consumed, has been less than that required any previ¬
