MOORE’S RURAL NEW-YORKER: AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER, 
279 
ARRIVAL 
ATLANTIC. 
Thu steamship Atlantic, with four days later 
news from Europe, arrived at New York, on the 
23d instant- 
Markets. —Cotton market unchanged and quiet 
Sales of three days 32,000 bales. 
Breadstuff's were buoyant with a further ad¬ 
vance of 2d.@3d. in wheat, and 6d.@ls. in flour, 
first qualities realizing 20s. 9d.@2is. 3d. Indian 
corn fully maintained at previous prices. 
The weather has been unsettled and large quan¬ 
tities of rain had fallen. The potato disease con¬ 
tinued to spread, and there was much coinplaiut 
of blight, in the wheat crops. At Manchester, 
there was a good business doing both in yarns 
and cloths at full prices. Provisions unchanged. 
England.— The fishery question is still freely 
discussed, and has created a slight depression in 
the funds. It is believed, however, that the mat¬ 
ter will be settled amicably. 
Emigration to Australia still continues. Fifty 
ships, of from 500 to 2,000 tons, are to sail from 
London, Liverpool, and Plymouth during the 
present month. 
A note has been addressed by the English Gov¬ 
ernment to the Austrian cabinet, giving assurance 
that all measures of precaution will be taken to 
prevent the presence of Kossuth in London, from 
interfering with the good relations between Eng¬ 
land and Austra. 
France.— Prince Napoleon Bonaparte has de¬ 
clined the embassy to Washington. lie will, how¬ 
ever, make a short visit to the Lmited States. 
A notice has been published iu the Moniteur, 
authorizing the return of a large number of dis¬ 
tinguished exiles. Y r ictor Hugo’s name is omit¬ 
ted in the decree. 
Despatches have been received at Paris, stating 
that the French fleet had not bombarded Tripoli, 
hut were on the point of doing so when the cause 
of dispute was amicably settled. 
Italy.— Another conspiracy against the gov¬ 
ernment had been discovered. 
Cape of Good Hope dates to the 2d, have been 
received. The Kaffir war had broken out with 
great fierceness and raged for fifty miles or more 
on both sides of a border line, some 150 miles in 
length. 
Several battles had been fought with only in¬ 
different success on the part of the British troops. 
An Ancient Elm.— There is an elm tree in the 
town of Sheffield, Massachusetts, which is said to 
be the finest in New England. Its circumference, 
two feet above the ground, is nearly thirty feet.— 
The smallest dian eter of the tree is between six 
and seven feet. The limbs reach nearly to the 
giound, and cover a space considerably more than 
a hundred feet in diameter. A railing has recent¬ 
ly been placed around the tree ; and the inhabi¬ 
tants of Sheffield, mindful of the beauties of the 
Elm, held a meeting on the 12th instant- under its 
spreading branches, at which’speeches were made 
by Hon. Wm. Bates, of Westfield; Prof.Barnard, 
of the University of Alabama ; Rev. Mr. Bying- 
ton, of the Choctaw Mission ; Edward Eusign, 
High Sheriff of Berkshire county, and others. A 
plentiful collation was provided. 
“The Commercial State.” —During the year 
ending June 30, 1851, Maine was for the first time 
ahead of every other state in the amount of ton¬ 
nage and in the number of ships built. The to¬ 
tal number of vessels, including ships, brigs, 
schooners, sloops, boats, and steamers built iu 
Maryland, was 130, with 18,027 tonnage ; in Mas¬ 
sachusetts 133, with 41,323 tonnage; in Penn¬ 
sylvania 200, with 20,623 tonnage ; in New York 
229, with 76,005 tonnage; and in Maine 254, 
with 77,398 tonnage. The number of ships built 
in Pennsylvania was 4, in Maiyland 25, in New 
York 25, in Massachusetts 60, and in Maine 101 
The iron manufacture in all its depart¬ 
ments in Great Britain at the present day, has 
reached the enormous annual figure of 2,500.000 
tons,‘estimated at a value of at least .£10,424,000; 
or in round numbers, $50,500,000 ; and employ - 
not less than 500,000 men.

Rural New-Yorker Office, ) 
Rochester, August 25, 1852. J 
There is very little activity in our market, more from 
the want of marketable commodities, than from any feel¬ 
ing of depression which really exists. The Unnecessary 
panic which has existed upon the subject of cholera, has 
kept farmers out of town, consequently very little produce 
is coming forward by wagons, This is a busy season with 
farmers, preparing for seeding, and very little wheat can be 
expected until after the 2t!tli of next month. We think 
every thing indicates that wheat will then bear a fair, though 
probably not an exceeding high price. The crop for all 
the wheat growing parts of our own Sta‘e has hardly turn¬ 
ed out the usual average, though we learn that at the west 
it is as good, and in many instances for large territories 
much better than for some years. Ordinal daily this would 
effect the price, but from all parts of the country we hear 
great complaints of drought, which with the cold, back¬ 
ward spring will undoubtedly render the corn crop short, 
as well as effect to a great extent the coarser grains. Hay 
is far from from plenty, and coarse feed, the offa! cf the 
mills will command a good price. In addi ion to this the 
advices from Europe are favorable. We shall not look for 
any diminution in the price of wheat, but think every in¬ 
dication is in favor of an advance. 
Flour—Very little grinding for want of water. Good 
brands sell at $4,50® 4,75. Extra at higher prices. 
Grain—Wheat is wanted, witli small supply, and all prim# 
samples readily sell at 91c. Very little doing in other 
grains. 
Provisions—No transactions of note. Butter is in de¬ 
mand and will readily command 14@16c. Eggs are scarce. 
In other things there are so few transactions, that no quo¬ 
tations would indicate the state of the market.

Few York State Agricultural Society’s 
FIRST PREMIUM 
Railroad Horse Rower and Thresher. 
W E would call the attention of those interested in the 
HORSE POWER TRADE, and especially the atten¬ 
tion of those who design to purchase, to the fact that we 
have the General Agency for the sale of the above men¬ 
tioned Powers, &e., in this section of the State. These 
Powers were formerly manufactured by the inventor, P. 
11. Frills, but now by While & Reuliss, of Hudson, under 
the superintendence of Mr. Frills. 
This Power was exhibited in operation at, the Fairof the 
N. Y. S A. Society, at Albany, in competition with other 
Powers, and the First Premium awarded to the Exhibitors, 
Emery & Co., of Albany, for its Superior Mechanical Con¬ 
struction, Durability, Strength and Power Messrs. Emery 
& Co , of Albany, speak of it in their advertisements as 
follows: 
These Horse Powers were exhibited in operation at the 
September Fair of iho N. Y. S. A. Society, at Albany, in 
competion with Wheeler's and several others, including all 
of any note now before the public on the endless chain 
principle, where all were examined thoroughly, as the able 
report of the committee will testify, when they unanimous¬ 
ly agreed to award E. A Co., the first premium for Superi¬ 
or Mechanical Construction, Durability, Strength and 
Power. 
They are acknowledged by those, using them to run with 
lighter fi ietion, which enables the power to be operated 
ill a less elevation than heretofore, thereby obtaining great¬ 
er strength and durability, lighter friction, without the lia¬ 
bility of breakage of links or the wearing of links and pin¬ 
ions. (no small item in the expense of repairs in most oth¬ 
er kinds of powers in use.) The farmer or mechanic is 
able to perform a greater amount of work, or to operate 
with less power or elevation, as best suits his wishes. 
The arrangement for tightening the endless platform by 
means of a joint hole connecting with the hearings of the 
real shaft, is new, and is a very simple and effectual mode 
of effecting this object, as it may be instantly done by a 
common wrench without stopping the machine. The plat¬ 
form is considerably longer than usual, avoiding the'liabil¬ 
ity of large or unsteady horses stepping over or off at either 
end. 
The advantages of these arrangement: are numerous, 
and plainly seen—one of which is removing all the gearing 
and wearing parts to the outside of the power, where it is 
free from dust and dirt, &c., and where it may be boxed 
up, requirii g little time or oil to keep them in the best pos¬ 
sible running order. 
The liability of breakage and wear, and slipping oflinks 
and pinions, as in the rack and pinion powers, (and most 
others, is wholly removed.” 
We might give other testimony in regard to the superi¬ 
ority of these Powers, but we deem that unnecessary, as 
by the wa- rantee and conditions of sale, the purchaser is 
protected from any chance of loss, v\ hicli we consider a 
sufficient inducement for ah to purchase who want ma¬ 
chines of this kind, or to make a trial of them at least.— 
They are warranted to be well made, and to be made of 
good materials, and to work to the satisfaction ot the pur¬ 
chaser, and in all cases, when desired, we will put them in 
operation free of charge, and leave them unsettled for un¬ 
til after the test. Those who design to purchase machines 
of the kind, will please give us a call or drop us a line.

Great Sale of Superior, Tliorongh-btred 
SM G> 1ST-HO UN CATTLE. 
USMIE Subscriber will offer for sale, ills entire herd of 
8 choice Short-horns, comprising 50 head, young and 
Old, at public Auction, on Wednesday the 13th of October, 
1852, at 1 o clock, P. M., at bis Farm i%. miles from the 
City of Troy; reserving to himself one bid on 5 Cows and 
Heifers and one Bull, say six head in ali, and these to be 
pointed out previous to the commencement of the sale; 
tins bid will be made public when the six animals are bro’t 
to the stand for sale. Should any gentlemen advance on the 
single bid made by the proprietor, the highest bidder will 
be entitled to the animal. It is proper to say, the severe 
drought in this vicinity, reducing the hay crop one half, has 
decided the proprietor to make tills sale at the time named, 
instead of next Juno, which he had purposed to do. 
Tlie well established reputation of this herd iu this Union 
and in Canada, and the splendid herd it lias measurably 
sprung from, viz., the famed herd of that eminent Eng¬ 
lish breeder, the late Thomas Bates, Esq., renders it hardly 
necessary to comment upon its superior merits. It may not 
however be inappropriate to remark, that the establish¬ 
ment of tins herd was commenced iu 1836, and that the 
most careful attention lias since been paid to its breeding, 
and that it now contains mostly all the reserved stock of 
two former public sales. Since 18 40, the proprietor lias im¬ 
ported from the late Mr. Bates, and Ills fritaids and late 
tenants the Messrs. Bells, 7 head of Short-horns. And be¬ 
sides these he has now on the passage across the Atlantic, 
shipped 21st June, on board the packet ship Kossuth, Capt. 
Jas. B. Bell, a superior yearling roan Bull, having mauy 
crosses of the tamed Dueliess Bulls of Mr. Bates. Inclu¬ 
ding this latter, and the two beautiful red roan 3 year old 
Heifers, which came out from England last September, 
“ Yarm Lass” and “ Yorkshire Countess,” and the beautiful 
Heifer Calf of the latter animal, got iu England by the 
Duchess Bull, 5th Duke of York, there will be 14 head of 
this imported stock, and its immediate descendants. There 
has been sold from this herd but 3 Heifers from the impor¬ 
tations, and these Cows were sold at $300 each. All the 
young Bulls bred from these Cows, except those now offer¬ 
ed for sale, have also been sold at private sale, at $390 each, 
most of them while quite young. 
Besides these 14 head of high bred animals, the noble 
premium Cow Esterville 3d, bred by E. P. Prentice, Esq., 
of Albany, and her equally fine 2 year old red and white 
Heifer bred by me, got by the Bates Bull Meteor, and 3 of 
tlie filmed milking Willey tribe, the same tribe of Cows as 
the Heifer Ruby, sold by me to Mr. S. P Chapman, of Mad¬ 
ison Co., and which Cow was awarded the first premium by 
the N. Y. State Agricultural Society, tor producing the lar¬ 
gest quantity of butter in 10 days in June, 10 days in Aug., 
on grass pasture only, being a fraction over 40 lbs. in those 
20 days. There are other valuable tribes in the herd, as 
the printed Catalogue will show. 
The Catalogue will be ready for distribution about tlie 
1st of August, and will exhibit richness of pedigrees rarely 
to be met with, showing tbs descent of the most of the. an- 
finals from the best animals on record in the English herd 
book. Having received an invitation from 11. Strafford last 
winter to forward a list of the pedigrees of my herd to be 
inserted in tlie forthcoming volumes of the English herd 
book of which Mr. 8. is now the Editor, several pedigrees 
were sent to him of the animals here offered for sale, and 
will appear in said book. Gentlemen are invited to exam¬ 
ine tlie herd at any time. 
A credit of 9 months will be given on all sums up to $300, 
and 9 and 18 months on all sums over $300, for approved 
paper, with interest payable at some Bank in this Scute.

And Overshot Threshers and Riddles, (or Separa¬ 
tors as more generally called,) arc made and sold 
by the Subscribers at 
Central Bridge, Schoharie Co., N. Y. 
n AVING made some valuable improvements in these 
machines this season, (for which a patent has been 
applied for,) which makes them superior to anything of 
the kind in use—as was fully established at the late trial of 
Agricultural Implements at Geneva, N. Y., where they 
were placed in competition with a number of other ma¬ 
chines, when we threshed more in the same length of time 
with the same amount of power used, than any other ma¬ 
chine there. We threshed with two horses more than 
one half as fast as was dona with the best eight horse lever 
power there, and faster than some of them did with six 
horses. 
We also make to order a Thresher and Separator com¬ 
bined, wh'di cleans the chaff from the grain, and works 
equal to anything of the kind in use,—to be used with 
the Railroad Horse Power. We also make large Separa¬ 
tors for eight horses, which have threshed more than 1.000 
bushels of grain in a day. (This Separator was patented 
by Jacob V. A. Wemple and George Westinghou.se, July 
13, IS It, and lias an extended reputation.) 
Having entire confidence in the superiority of these ma¬ 
chines, wo do not hesbate to lot any honorable person take 
one and try it, and upon sucli trial if he does not think it 
the hast machine of the kind lie bits seen be shall have the 
machine without pay. 
We warrant, these machines in all cases to suit, the pur¬ 
chaser upon trial; if not he can return the machine and 
have his money refunded if paid. These machines are for
