ARRIVAL OF THE PACIFIC. 
Four Bays later from Europo. 
The Pacific arrived at New York on the 12 inst. 
in fourteen days from Liverpool. 
Markkts.— Cotton active at advance. Sales 
40,000 were on speculation and export. 
Grain Market continues firm with a hardening 
tendency. Wheat in fair request at full prices. 
Flour has advanced fid per bbl. and it would be

Oiiio or Virginia under 24s. per bbl. 
Indian corn negleete^ except prime white, which 
commands the full rates of last week. 
England.—T he alarm of a foreign invasion has 
infect.d the whole population. Rumors of every 
character were afloat at the sailing of the steamer; 
among the rest that 25,000 troops had been or¬ 
dered to concentrate at London. There is little 
reason to confide in these exaggerations. It is 
true that the Board of Ordnance has ordered 23,- 
00 ) Mmie muskets from Birmingham, and that 
all the different armories are busily employed in 
the manufacture of locks and bayonets. The pa¬ 
pers likewise teem with editorials and conununi- 
ca;i >ns expatiating upon the national danger. The 
commission is engaged in inspecting and recom¬ 
mending improvements in the defences of the 
Channel islands. 
But there appears to ho no well-grounded basis 
for Idic excitement. No casus belli has been made 
out, and the chances are that matters will very 
shortly resume their ordinary placidity. 
Fbaxck. —The Moniteur announces that Gov¬ 
ernment will not require exceptional measures to 
maintain tranquillity. 
Forty-six parsons were arrested and transfer¬ 
red to the chateau of Blaqtie, whence they are to 
he transported, some to Cayenne and others to 
Lambassa, in Algiers. 
The • lecree of the Provisional Government, abol¬ 
ishing titles of nobility, has been rescinded. 
Idle Government, with a view of reassuring the 
public mind as to its fears of new measures ofse- 
v. rity, declares it will not recur toany more excep¬ 
tional measures. 
It is thought probably that, owing to a defici¬ 
ent harvest, the exportation of Corn will be pro¬ 
hibited. 
Rural New-Yorker Uffick, 
Rochester, Feb. J7, 1832. 
TriE post week ha* not been favorable to business.— 
We have now little more snow, and a revival may be an¬ 
ticipated. 
The farmers in the vicinity give no regular attention to 
marketing, and of many articles there are at times a per¬ 
fect flood, and low prices and per contra a dearth and pri¬ 
ces that are exhorbitant or prohibitory. Our market need* 
a constant reliable supply. 
Fl.OUR—Nothing doing in the home market beyond 
•upplying the home demand. 
GRAIN—Wheat lias improved a trifle, nearly as much 
because little is coming in as from any legitimate im¬ 
provement, though much of it may he consequent up^n 
the favorable state of foreign markets. We quote at 98® 
Use., and for a choice lot possibly a dollar might be had.— 
Other grains are unchanged. 
SEEDS—Wc hear some enquiry for clover though the 
demand is not brisk, hardly suflieientto establish a market 
price. 
PROVISIONS arc without change. 
POULTRY is scarce, hardly enough offering to make 
a price.

ARRIVAL OF THE DANIEL WIBST2R. 
Two Weeks Later. 
The Daniel Webster arrived at New Nork, Feb. 
13, with advices from San Francisco to January 
17th. She. left San Juan on the 5th instant, and 
brings $7t)w,0!)0 in gold on freight. The Passen¬ 
gers from Calif,>; uia by this arrival came through 
in 26 days 1U hours. 
The market at San Juan was overstocked with 
goods, but the city was healthy. The transit 
route was in excellent condition. 
The Legislature of California convened at Va- 
lejo, January 5th. 1'iio organization was comple¬ 
ted on the 7th. II. P. Hammond, Democrat, of 
Sail Joa pun, was elected Speaker of the House ; 
the other officers are also Democrats. On the 
8th the two Houses met to canvass the votes for 
Governor and Lieul. Governor. John Bigler was 
declared G-.vernor, and H. Purdy Lieut. Governor. 
T iie Legislature .adjourned on the I2th, and 
wove to meet at Sacramento on the 16th—a rcso- 
1 ut i''ii having passed the Senate fixing upon Sa¬ 
cramento as the capital. Log-rolling, wire-pul¬ 
ling, J: were being practiced pretty extensively 
bv the members of'the Legislature. Among the 
most prominent candidates for U. S. Senator were 
Col. Miller, Ceorge Smith and D. C. Broderick, of 
aucisco—Col. Henley and J. G. Ralston of 
Sacramento and Gen. Anderson, Tuolumme. It 
was n M known when the election would come off. 
The weather in California was delightful, and 
.gave good promise to both the miner and tiller 
of the soil of an abundant harvest. 
A new Democratic paper, the Western Ameri¬ 
can, has made its appearance. 
A fair business was doing at San Francisco.— 
Flour sales stun ly. American Lumber active and 
advancing, trade,at Marysville was improvin, 
Ihe Indian disturbances in Lower California 
seems to lie entirely at an end, and the volunteer 
force employed against the savages 1ms been dis¬ 
banded. The Indian Chief, Antonio Garni, who 
was arrested for being the principal in the distur¬ 
bance.-;. has been tried, found guilty and shot. 
The mining news appears favorable. There is 
said to have bu n great excitement at Downioville, 
in conse pence of new veins of auriferous quartz 
in that vicinity. Six different veins were discov¬ 
ered within ten days and found to yield from six¬ 
ty cents to a dollar and twenty-five cents per 
pouniLof rock. Other discoveries of gold are also 
mentioned. 
Dr. Trask says that in journeying to California, 
the company with which lie traveled found sev¬ 
eral valuable silver mines on the Western bound¬ 
ary of Chihuahua, and on t£ie Eastern boundary 
of JSonora, which had been abandoned by the 
Mexicans, in consequence of the depredating in¬ 
cursions of thye Anache Indians. In one or two 
places the ground was literally covered with ore, 
which had been left by Lire miners when surpris¬ 
ed by Indians. 
, A Settler’s and Miner’s Convention was in ses¬ 
sion at Sacramento City. 
The advance guard of the Boundary Survey 
Commission, consisting of Mr. Grey, U. S. Sur¬ 
veyor and others, with Brevet Lieut. Col. Craig, 
3d Infantry, in command of the escort, arrived at 
S ui Diego on the 7th ult. All well. Mr, Bart¬ 
lett, the Commissioner, was at Guaymas, at latest 
dates, to leave for San Diego by first steamer.

FIRST PREMIUM 
RA3LKOAD HORSE POWER. 
T MIE aiiove justly celebrated Power* ns now made and 
sold by tlie subscribers, are offered tiie public with the 
assurance that they are all they are represented—they hav¬ 
ing been very extensively and thoroughly introduced and 
tested, side t-y side, with all the tread powers known, of 
any note in the country, and been preferred. 
The Chairman of tlie Agricultural Society’s Committee 
on Horse-Powers, in a communication written several 
months after tlie awarding of premium to the above Horse- 
Power, says: “ I spent much time at the late State Fair, 
[Bept. I Sin,] at Albany, in examining the various Horse¬ 
powers, viz. YY’heeier’s, Allen’s, Ham’s, and Emery Sl 
Co’s, first with tlie owners and makers, and heard ail they 
could say, and again in tlieir absence—nnd tlie result most 
fully convinced me that yours was tho best, and if I want¬ 
ed one, i would give, TWENTY DOLLARS more for 
yours than any others on the grounds; and as you have 
won the laurels fairly, it is just that you should receive a 
full reward.” 
He further says—‘‘You know from experience that I 
have no sort of partiality for your establishment, nnd ns a 
committee-man of said Society for years, I have decided 
against you oftencr than for you; and if others have a bet¬ 
ter article than you, I would decide in tlieir fnvor, if tiie 
decision ruined your establishment, and vice versa, hurt 
who it may.” 
With tiie testimony of such men as the author cf the 
foregoing, when, together with the changeable gearing, and 
other important improvements adopted since Inst season, 
make it the mont convenient, durable, efficient, and eco¬ 
nomical Horse-Power now made; and the public may rest 
assured ot being furnished by us with a superior machine
