MOORE’S RURAL NEW-YORKER: AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 
News Clippings- 
J>W’ Two days’ later news from Europe was 
received Sunday evening "by the Humboldt. Po 
liticnlly As well as commercially, it is of little im¬ 
portance. 
EHF" fl° v - Ramsey has issued his proclamation, 
giving official notice that the Maine Liquor Law 
,has been ratiffed by the people of Minnesota, and 
went into effect on the 3d inst. The majority for 
it was 191. 
During the first quarter of this year, 9,3G2 
men, 933 women and 127 children, arrived at San 
Francisco by sea from abroad, and 4,620 men and 
166 women sailed from it. Of those who arrived, 
1,537 were from China. 
It is said that the purchasers of the Crys¬ 
tal Palace have bought a site in London for its 
immediate re-erection. There is a proposition to 
construct a tower one thousand feet high out of 
the materials. 
The Winchester (Va ) Republic says that 
a steer’s horn is to lie seen at a tannery in that 
place, which is four feet long, seventeen inches in 
circumference at the thickest part, and holds one 
gallon and a half. 
SITIn 1851 three hundred and sixty millions 
of letters passed through llie English post-office; 
in 1830 the number was only seveutv-six millions. 
So much for cheap postage, increase of population, 
and intelligence. 
ZW The whites of South Carolina have multi¬ 
plied from 112.019 in 1790, to 274,623 in 1850, or 
at the rate of 93 per cent. The whites of Massa¬ 
chusetts, in the same period, have multiplied from 
384,984 to 994,499, or at the rate of 193 per cent. 
Gov. Bout well, of Massachusetts, on Sat¬ 
urday last, signed the Liquor bill, somewhat sim¬ 
ilar to the Maine Law, recently passed by the 
Legislature of that State. The law goes into ef¬ 
fect in sixty days after its passage. 
Professor Emmons, State Geologist of 
North Carolina, in a Litter to the Governor, ex¬ 
presses l he fullest confidence that there is almost 
an inexhaustible source of coal in that State. The 
preliminary examinations at several points estab¬ 
lish the fact that the stratum is seven feet thick, 
and the quality excellent. 
A despatch from Chicago, dated on Satur¬ 
day, says, “ the first train of cars over the Michi¬ 
gan Central Railroad, from Detroit through to this 
place, left Detroit yesterday morning at 7 o’clock 
with over 5 )0 first class passengers and 200 or 300 
emigrants, and arrive l at this place at 8 o’clock 
last evening. They ha 1 an excellent run.” 
The Flax Cotton Manufacture in England 
is considered nolongeran experiment. The Eng¬ 
lish journals feel so well about it that they call it 
British cotton. It is calculated that barely 980,- 
000 acres of laud devoted to I he cultiv.ftion of flax 
would supply half of the cotton mills of England 
and to that extent displace American cotton. 
23^“ Minnesota Territory is state I to be about 
four times as large as the State of Ohio. Its length 
is six lum bed and seventy-five miles from north¬ 
west to south-east. The centre of the territory is 
about twelve hundred miles, in a direct line, from 
the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans, one thousand 
miles from the Gulf of Mexico, and three hundred 
miles from Hudson’s Bay. 
Elf" The Kingston (Canada) Herald says, that 
as far as it can learn the prospects of even an ave¬ 
rage crop of winter wheat, in that part of the coun¬ 
try, are far from encouraging. Preparations are, 
however, being made for sosviug an extensive 
breadth of spring grain. The extreme lateness of 
the spring has thrown back vegetation, and as a 
consequence, the market for produce, potatoes, but¬ 
ter, veal, <&c., is very high. 
The St. Louis Republican says that the 
wheat crop is spi ken of in many places as look¬ 
ing extremely line the present season. The win¬ 
ter, although more than usually free from snow, 
has been favorable. Regular rains have kept the 
earth moist, and the growing crop wears a green 
and vigorous appearance. The only damage now 
to be apprehended is the rust. The wheat and rye 
crops in Washington county, Md. t are said to have 
improved wonderfully within a week or two. 
Pav of Authors. —The N. Y. Times says, in, 
relation to the success of authors in this country, 
that Bancroft, besides buying a “ free-stone” 
house in New York, has built a fine country-seat 
at Newport. Headley has built a splendid man¬ 
sion at Newburgh. Melville has bought a farm at 
Stockbridge. Irving and Paulding have splendid 
seats on the Hudson. Prescott has received from 
the Harpers not less than $40,000 for his books. 
Morse has been paid more than $ 20,000 from the 
sale of his books. Albert Barnes has received 
from his Commentaries over $20,000. Prof. An- 
thon has nude over $ 10,000—Stephens, over $ 10,- 
000—the Abbotts, over $15,000, <fec., Ac., Ac. Ik 
Marvel has received not less than $20,000 profits 
on his books, although it is only a few years since 
he began to write. Headley’s profits must have 
already exceeded $30,000. Prof. Davies has re¬ 
ceived more than $50,000 as the proceeds of the 
sale of his books. The Tribune lately menl ioned 
that Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe had refused $10,- 
000 for the copyright of a single novel. 
Writings of Gkxkral Grkune. —Prof. G. W. 
Greene, of Providence, made a statement lately 
before the New Yoik Historical Society in regard 
to the writings of his honored father, which he 
has collected with a view to their publication, un¬ 
der the patronage of Congress. He has upward 
of 1,000 documents in tlie handwriting of the il¬ 
lustrious warrior; also several unpublished letters 
of Gen. Washington. He said some important 
writings were missing, which were necessary to 
complete the narrative. With the exception of 
tlie papers of Gen. Washington, they formed the 
most voluminous collection on the history of the 
country. Mr. Greene concluded his remarks by 
expressing the hope that his hearers would do 
their utmost to aid him in procuring the missing 
papers. 
The Toy Ocean is worth Money. —In this ultra 
utilitarian period we value each fragment of the 
grand structure of Nature according to its market 
worth in dollars. Hence it is, that the North Po¬ 
lar Sea has become of intrinsic importance, in con¬ 
sideration of the fact that our enterprising seamen, 
who frequent those regions, have within a few 
years, managed to tap a new source of wealth in 
the way of whale-fishe T.es in that quarter. A 
letter of the Navy Secretary says, that there are 
more men employed there in the harpooning busi¬ 
ness than the combined numerical force of men of 
war. 
A Good Move. —Horace White, Esq., of Syra¬ 
cuse, has promised to make an annual donation to 
the Cortland Agricultural Society, of $25, to be 
awarded as a premium for the best five head of 
cattle between the ages of six months and four 
years. This move will doubtless furnish an extra 
inducement for the raising of superior cattle.

Nkw-Yorkkr Office, ) 
lester, May 26, 1852. j 
I There lias been very little business in our market for 
j the week past, though in every branch, health and vigor 
! appears. May lias favored us with a few days of summer- 
j like weather, and farmers are too much occupied with 
! seed time ritne to think of their “city cousins.” 
I Grain—T here is a fair milling demand for wheat with a 
scarcity of prime Genesee. We hear of a sale of 2,500 liu 
white Michigan at 92c. Extra while Genesee would 
command ftl. In other grains very li;,cle doing. 
Flour— No change to note in the tlour market. In the 
absence of anything exci iug,r,his staple is remarkably qui¬ 
et. We are of tlie opinion, that oilier products will pay 
the farmer better until there is more of a demand for 
bread stuffs—or not so large a supply. 
Provisions —Everything the farmer has to sell in this 
line commands high prices, and unless a better supply is 
furnished purses will not only look lank,hut fail altogether. 
Beef Cattle command $6(706,50 live weight, and are not 
abundant at that. The emigration to California from tlie 
western states is drawing off our usual supply, in the way 
of teams and .applies for the overland route. Mutton 
and Veal are Ml abundant. Butter is cheaper, and sells 
at 11(a)l(>c. In other provisions no change of moment. 
Hops—W o notice no sales of Imps. 
Vegetables ■ Potatoes are not abundant, and sell readi¬ 
ly at our quotations, and for choice varieties more would 
be paid. Apples are becoming diltiuult to obtain, and 
prices too high for general use. 
Beans— Our market is nearly bare of beans, and the 
Yankees have to forego the luxury of “ pork and beans.” 
Wool —No sales can ho expected until tlie sheep yield 
again their precious fleeces. 
Flour Barrels —We hear of nothing to lead to a change 
of our quotation.

THE NEW YORK REAPER. 
M R Me. CORMICK in an advertisement recently pub¬ 
lished says, “ that while Seymour & Morgan are go- 
ing on to manufacture more reapers, they have made no 
provision to pay the judgment against them for $17,306, 
and uno.her suit for infringement in tlie manufacture of 
five hundred reapers since the commencement of the firsi, 
is about to be brought against them, and that if they fail 
to pay tlie damages, the purchasers are not only liable, 
but may at any time, and will be sued for the same.” 
In answer to this, we say, that Mr. Me Cormick has no 
judgment against us for $17,306, or for any other sum.— 
He ob.ained a verdict against us for upwards of $17,000, 
on account of the machines which we manufactured and 
, sold in 1850; but proceedings were immedia ely taken on 
our part to present the case to tlie U. S. Supreme Court, 
before which tribunal we hope to obtain a new trial, and 
in that case feel very confident that we can now make a 
successful defence. If we should he disappointed in this, ; 
vve expect to pay tlie verdict, unjust as we know it to bo. 
Wi h regard to the machines we are now building, Mr. j 
41c Cormick very well knows, that they contain not a sin¬ 
gle feature, which is embraced in any unexpired patent of j 
his, and that we have as much right to build and sell them j 
without reference to him, as farmers have to plow their j 
lands without asking his permission. It will be observed ( 
that, he does not pretend, in his advertisement, that the j 
machines we are now constructing, are any infringement 
of his patents. 
Tlie 500 machines which we sold last year wore no in- i 
friugement of his rights, and if he should see fit to carry j 
Ids threat of prosecuting us into execution, it will he for 
he purpose of frightening, and deterring farmers from 
purchasing machines of us this year, and not with the ex- 
poo a ion of obtaining a verdict against us. His object is 
ro drive us out of ihe business of making Reapers, i bat he 
may have the entire field to himself. This, if truth and 
jus ice are allowed to prevail, lie cannot do. 
Those wishing the New York Reaper for the ensuing 
harvest, will do well to give us their orders early, as we 
have heretofore been unable to supply tlie demand.

Clark's Excelsior Churn. 
C '(LARK S EXCELSIOR CI1UKN is a ro.’ary cylinder or 
J barrel, seif-ventilating,mid working around aSiation- 
ary cross-bar or dash, with a tempering apparatus for 
bringing the milk or cream to any required temperature. 
This valuable Churn, which is admitted to ezre/everything 
of its class hitherto offered to dairymen, will be furnished 
at prices from $2,50 to $10. Tlie small cheap Excelsior, 
buik.cn irely of wood, can not be supplied at present; it 
being Ihe object of the proprietor to furnish large dairies, 
for which the churn is,particularly designed, and to sell 
Stare and County Rights to those who may wish to supply 
the increasing demand for the Churn. 
The two sizes generally preferred, with iron axles, crank 
and gearing, complete and perfect, will be forwarded to 
order by Canal or Uaiiroiui from Utica, at $7, and $10 
each. The latter price will purchase the largest size, 
worked by crank, producing 25 to 10 lbs. of butter. No 
extras will lie charged for i lie tempering apparatus which 
goes with each churn. The small (tin) cylinder placed in 
the centre of ho barrel, wi ll its connec.itig tubes through 
the hollow axles, can be kept full of running water, before 
and during tlie process of churning—until tlie butter is 
worked in the Churn. 
Three or more thirty gallon churns in one frame, for 
horse power, wi ll tempering apparatus in each, will lie 
furnished at $5 per barrel. Orders from distant places 
should enclose payment. 
The Proprietor will make provision, in his liberal terms 
to agents, for advertising tlie Excelsior Churn in the coun¬ 
try papers of the di ferent States—especially in such pa¬ 
pers as shall have given Editorial Notices designed to awa¬ 
ken inquiry in rela ion to the Churn. Circulars giving il¬ 
lustration, description, premiums, terms to agents, and 
prices of tlie Churn, will he promptly mailed to all who 
apply at any time, post-paid, to the proprietor.

FIRST PREMIUM 
RAILROAD HORSE POWER. 
npiIE above justly celebrated Powers as now made and 
A sold by ihe subscribers, are offered the public with the 
assurance that they are all they are represented—they hav¬ 
ing been very extensively and thoroughly introduced aud 
tested, side by side, with all llie tread powers known, of 
any uoie in the country, and ls;eu preferred. 
Tlie Chairman of the Agricultural Society’s Committee 
on Horse-Powers, in a communication written several 
mouths after the awarding of premium to the above Horse- 
Power, says: “ 1 spent much time at the late State Fair, 
[Sept, i860,J at Albany, in examining Hie various Horse- 
Powers, viz. Wheeler’s, Allen’s, Ham’s, and Emery &: 
Go’s, lirsi with the owners and makers, and heard all they 
could say, and again in their absence—and ihe result most 
fully convinced me that yours was the best, and if I want¬ 
ed one, l would give, TWENTY DOLLARS more for 
yours than any others on tlie 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 1 
have no sort of partiality for your establishment, and ns a 
committee-man of said Society for years, I have decided 
against you ofteuer than lor you; and if others have a bet¬ 
ter article than you, I would decide in their favor, if the 
decision ruined your establishment, and vice versa, hurt 
who it may.” 
With the testimony of such men as the author of tiie 
loregoing, when, together willt the changeable gearing, and 
other important improvements adopted since last season, 
make it the most convenient, durable, efficient, and eco¬ 
nomical Horse-Power now' made; and the public may rest 
assured of beinp furnished by us with a siqierior machine.

BAROMETERS stt.tl THERMOMETERS, 
MANUFACTURED by 
liutidiill U tot he is. New Lebanon, N. Y. 
r | ’HE convenience and necessity of the Bari ■meter for 
JL many purposes of practical life, is every year becom¬ 
ing more apparent. We take this method of informing 
the public that we h ive had extensive experience in their 
manufacture .and have given careful attention to accuracy 
of i ansi ruction and neatness of finish. 
Our Thermometers are already too widely known to 
heed notice here. Wewi.rrrmtall work that goes from our 
hands We have pleasure in offering the following testi¬ 
monial from Professor Dkwhy: 
Univkksity or Rochester, Dec. 26, 1851. 
In the construction of Thermometers and Barometers, 
the Kendall Brothers, of New Lebanon, have long been 
distinguished lor the accuracy and excellence of their in- 
struinents. Their mode of‘making the divisions was 
original, and has ever been commended by those who un¬ 
derstood it. 1 need only concur in the opinion of gi ntle- 
men highly qualified to judge in such cases. 1 have long 
been acquainted with ff.e instruments, and am confident 
that the public may safely give them their patronage, and 
expeetto be satisfied with both kinds of the instruments. 
. I tiave often remarked on the importance of farmers 
possessing me Barometers, and of understanding its indi¬ 
cations. The latter is not so difficult as is often supposed, 
niuj is made relatively easy by the little chartof direction* 
accompanying Messrs Kendall’s instruments. 
C. DEWEY, Prof. Nat. Sciences. 
Also to the following, obtained by our Mr. J. K., wdien 
a manufacturer in Cleveland, O., from Prof. Kirtland, ot 
Cleveland Medical College: 
Cleveland, Dec. 29, 1846. 
Mr. Kendall—S ir: I have repeatedly tested both The- 
niometers and Parlor Barometers of your construction, 
and it affords me pleasuie to state, that as regards accu¬ 
racy and workmanship, they far exceed any that 1 have 
ever obtained from abroad. 
Within the lastiwo years, I have broken three Barome¬ 
ters manufactured elsewhere, while transporting them from 
the city to my residence, a distance of only live miles.— 
They were carried witii the utmost care and precaution. 
The improved mode, which you have adopted in con¬ 
structing the tube and reservoir, renders it perfectly safe 
to transport yours to my part of the country. Our citi¬ 
zens, both of this city and the Western country, wbo.nniy 
have occasion to use’ such instruments, will find it to their 
advantage to extend their patronage to you, who have been 
so long and favorable known as an experienced manu¬ 
facturer at New Lebanon, New York. 
Very truly, yours, J ARED P. KIRTLAND. 
We arc happy to refer the citizens of Rochester and vi¬ 
cinity, to Gen. Gould, of Rochester, who has one of our 
Barometers. 
Our Barometers can he obtained of C.. A. Burr, Jcwe’er, 
Rochester, and of Messrs. Willard & Hawley, Syracuse, 
or by orders addressed to us. f 1 ■ -7-tfi 1
