MOORE’S RURAL NEW-YORKER: AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER, 
California 3&ms. 
AERIVAL OF THE DANIEL WEBSTER, 
The steamship Daniel Webster arrived at New 
Orleans September 4, from San Juan del Norte, 
with dates from San Francisco to August 14th, 
bringing a large number of passengers and per¬ 
forming the quickest passage ever made between 
the two places. 
The Daniel Webster reports the Isthmus as 
being in a perfectly healthy condition, and the 
navigation of the river St. Johns without impedi¬ 
ment. 
The passengers passed over from ocean to ocean 
in about forty-three hours, and spoke highly of 
the route. A number of them belong to the Eas¬ 
tern and leave here by the Overland route. The 
accounts by the Daniel Webster are two weeks 
later than those received at New York by the 
Prometheus. 
Business at San Francisco continues good and 
prices for most descriptions of merchandize were 
without material change. Political matters oc¬ 
cupied the attention of the community to a con¬ 
siderable extent, and a number of meetings had 
been held by both the Whigs and the Demo¬ 
crats preparatory to the grand Presidential con¬ 
test. 
The gold diggings at San Antonio have been 
remarkably rich. Many of the miners averaging 
from $30 to $40 a day. At Short Bar and in the 
neighborhood of the mountains the miners are 
doing remarkably well. The quartz crushing 
mines are not so productive and a number of the 
miners have given them up. 
The steamship Columbia arrived at San Fran¬ 
cisco on the 10th of August.

ARRIVAL OF THE ARCTIC. 
The Arctic reached New York on the 5th inst 
Madam Sontag is among the passengers. 
Cotton quiet and declining. Sales for four days 
20,000 bales. 
Fine weather continuing favorable to the har¬ 
vest, tends to damp the ardor of all classes in the 
trade, and the operations entered upon since Fri¬ 
day have generally been at a decline in the rates 
then current Wheat, to the extent of Id. for 70 
lbs.; Flour, 6d. per barrel; and Indian Corn 6d. 
f >r. qr.: at which concession sales have not been 
arge of any article. Both buyer and seller ex¬ 
hibiting indifference until something more defi¬ 
nite can be arrived at touching the effect of re¬ 
cent rains, and the extent of damage the crops 
inav have suffered in consequence. 
The political news is of no importance what- 
Potatoks.—T he present prospect for potatoes 
in this region is better than it has been at this 
time of year for several years past. We have lately 
conversed with many farmers from different parts 
of the county, and some from adjoining counties, 
and we hear no complaint of the rot; and, what 
i6 si ill more encouraging, the potatoes appear 
healthy, boiling nearly as mealy as in old times. 
It is now so late that we have strong hopes that 
they will nearly, if not entirely escape the rot.— 
Wyoming Mirror. 
We learn from the farmers in different parts of 
this county that the crop in all sections promises 
far better than for the past few years, and this, 
taken in connection with the fact that there has 
been a much larger quantity of land planted to 
potatoes, induces us to believe that this important 
vegetable is again to be plenty and at moderate 
juices.— Livingston Co. Republican. 
Goi.d by the Tox.—A writer in the Tribune 
says, “ ihere were over six tons of gold dust, on 
board the two steamers which left San Francisco 
on the 31st of July; and we may look for seven 
tons by those of the 15th inst.; and an equal 
amount on the 1st and 15th of each month, until 
the 1st of January next! or the enormous 
amount of seventy tons of gold for the five months 
from 1st of August to 1st of January.”

Important to Farmers! 
PORTABLE MILL. 
Oakland, near Geneva, N. Y., 28 Aug., 1952. 
Mr. Charles Ross,—Dear Sir :—In reply to your letter 
of the 25tli inst., it is a pleasure to speak in commendation 
of your Patent Conical Mill. To me it has proved valuable 
for grinding food for my stock, as a few hours labor with 
this machine prepares food sufficient for fifteen head of 
cows for several days. The Mill used by me prepares food 
for horses, sheep and swine, grinding and mixing corn, 
oats and other grains satisfactorily. It has also produced 
for my use, our Indian meal, buckwheat metd, and occa¬ 
sionally wheat flour, thus saving the time of teams and 
men, which otherwise must have been occupied, going sev¬ 
eral miles to a distant mill, at much expense; ic is therefore 
a source of economy as well as mi inducement to better 
care of all stock. It affords also one among other resour¬ 
ces of convenient and useful labor during stormy weather. 
My belief is that your Mill will work iis way into general 
use upon farms where stock is raised, and where grist mills 
are not within a short distance. I11 my estimation this 
mill is among the most important machines offered to the 
farmer. Resp'y yours, J. Dklakikld. 
N. B.—Mr. Delafield has had the Conical Mill in use on 
his farm for nearly four years. 
Any further information respecting this Mill, may be ob¬ 
tained by letter (post-paid' addressed to

Great Sale of Superior} TlxorougI»-bred 
SHORT-HORN CA'jFTLE. 
T HE Subscriber will offer for sale, liis entire herd of 
choice Short-horns, comprising 50 head, young and 
oul, at public Auction, on Wednesday the 13th of October, 
1852, at 1 o clock, P. M., at his Farm 'lA miles from the 
City of Troy; reserving to liimself one bid on 5 Cows aud 
Heifers and one Bull, say six head in all, and these to be 
pointed out previous to the commencement of the sale; 
this 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 
lie 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 this sale'at the time named, 
instead of next June, which he had purposed to do. 
The well established reputation of this herd in this Union 
and in Canada, and the splendid herd it lias measurably 
sprung from, viz., the famed herd of tliat eminent Eng¬ 
lish breeder, the late Thomas Bates, Esq., renders it liardly 
necessary to comment upon its superior merits, it may not 
however be inappropriate to remark, that the establish¬ 
ment of this herd was commenced in 1839, and that the 
most careful attention lias since been paid to its breeding 
and tliat it uow contains mostly all the reserved stock of 
two former public sales. Since 1810, the proprietor has im¬ 
ported from the late Mr. Hafts, and his friends and late 
tenants the Messrs. Bells, 7 head of Short-horns. And be¬ 
sides these he lias now on the passage across the Atlantic, 
shipped 21st June, on board the packet ship Kossuth, Capt. 
Jas. K. Bell, a superior yearling roan Bull, liaving many 
crosses of the famed Duchess Bulls of Mr. Bafts. Inclu¬ 
ding this latter, and the two beautiful red roan 3 year old 
Heifers, which came out from England last September, 
“ Yarm Lass” and “ Yorksliire Countess,” and the beautiful 
Heifer Calf of the latter animal, got in England by the 
Duchess Bull, 5th Duke of York, there will be 14 head of 
this imported stock, and its immediate deseendents. There 
lixs been sold from this herd but 3 Heifers from the impor¬ 
tations, and these Cows wore sold at $360 each. All the 
young Bulls bred from these Cows, except those now offer¬ 
ed for sale, have also been sold at private sale, at $300 euch, 
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 
the famed 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, for 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 the 
1st of August, and will exhibit richness of pedigrees rarely 
to be met with, showing the descent of the most of the an¬ 
imals from the best animals on record in the Englisii herd 
book. Haring received an invitation from H. Strafford last 
winter to forward a list of the pedigrees of my herd to be 
inserted in the forthcoming volumes of the English herd 
book of which Mr. S. 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 the 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 State.

Clark’s Excelsior Churn. 
C LARK S EXCELSIOR CHURN is a rotary cylinder or 
barrel, selt-ventilating, and working around a station¬ 
ary cross-bar or dash, with a tempering apparatus for 
bringing the milk or cream to any required temperature. 
I bis valuable Cliuru, which is admitted to exceteverything 
of its class hitherto offered to dairymen, will be furnished 
at prices from @2,50 to $10. The small cheap Excelsior, 
built entirely of wood, can not be supplied at present; it 
being the object of the proprietor to furnish large dairies, 
for which the churn is particularly designed, and to sell 
State and County Rights to those who may wish to supply 
the increasing demand for the Churn. 
Tlte two sizes generally preferred, with iron axles, crank 
and gearing, complete and perfect, will be forwarded to 
order by Canal or Railroad from Utica, at ©7, and @10 
each. The latter price will purchase the largest size, 
worked by crank, producing 25 to 40 lbs. of butter. No 
extras will be charged for the tempering apparatus which 
goes with each churn. The small (tin) cylinder placed in 
the centre of ihe barrel, with its connecting tubes through 
the hollow axles, can be kept full of running water, before 
and during the process of churning—until the butter is 
worked in the Churn. 
Three or more thirty gallon churns in one frame, for 
horse power, with tempering apparatus in each, will be 
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 the Excelsior Churn in the coun¬ 
try papers of the different States—especially in such pa¬ 
pers as shall have given Editorial Notices designed to awa¬ 
ken inquiry in relation to the Churn. Circulars givin 0- il¬ 
lustration, description, premiums, terms to agents, and 
prices of the Chum, will be promptly mailed to all who 
apply at any time, post-paid, to the proprietor.
