MOORE’S RURAL NEW-YORKER: AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 
27 
Arrival of the Atlantic. 
The Atlantic, from Liverpool 23d ult., arrived at 
New York on the 6th inst. 
Great Britain. —President Buchanan’s Message 
attracted great attention in England. It was tele¬ 
graphed entire from Liverpool to some of the Lon¬ 
don journals, being the largest despatch ever sent 
by telegraph in England. The London Times, in 
its review of the Message, confines itself to the 
financial crisis and the Central American question. 
It construes Mr. Buchanan’s remarks on the former 
subject, into a tribute to the monetary system of 
England. 
On. the Central American question, the Times 
gays:—We have much pleasure in receiving the 
assurance from Mr. Buchanan that the interest of 
the two countries is identical, being confined to 
securing safe transit over all the routes across the 
Isthmus. Let the American Government give 
proof of thia and we are sure that matters will be 
speedily settled. We must tell the Americans that 
on these two questions we are strictly on the de¬ 
fensive, and the most inveterate declaimer against 
England cannot deny the conciliatory spirit in 
which she has treated them; but we can hardly be 
asked to give up the Treaty of 1850 without a guar¬ 
anty that all its most important provisions shall be 
re-enacted, and the whole series of irritating dis¬ 
putes brought forever to a close. 
Further attempts will not be made to launch the 
Leviathan, until the spring tides at the commence¬ 
ment of January. The hydraulic power was more 
than doubled. The ship remained even and fair 
on the ways, and at high tides had nearly six feet 
of water under her. 
Itumors of ministerial changes were again in cir¬ 
culation. 
The London Advertiser understands that Mr. B. 
Smith will leave the Board of Control, and be suc¬ 
ceeded by Sir C. Wood; and that should Mr. Smith 
retire, his patron, the Marquis of Lansdowne, will 
probably withdraw from ministerial life. 
The marriage treaty of the Princess Royal of 
England, with the Prince of Russia, had been 
signed. 
France. —It was stated, but contradicted by the 
Patrie, that the Emperor, in consequence of repre¬ 
sentations made by England, had consented to sub¬ 
mit the question of the exportation of negroes 
from Africa to the French colonies to a conference 
to be held in London. 
The French ships of war intended for China were 
appointed to leave Toulon between the 20th and 
25:h of December, and would proceed direct to 
Hong Kong with 500 troops on board. 
Commercial affairs' in Paris had slightly im¬ 
proved. 
Spirits had risen in price since the imposition of 
a duty on foreign brandies. 
Wheat and flour had slightly declined. 
Spain. —The Espana of Madrid, denounces with 
some vehemence the supposed projects of the 
United States against Cuba, and accuses President. 
Buchanan of personally encouraging them. With 
regard to the proposition for purchasing the island 
which it says the new Minister of the United States, 
who is about to arrive in Madrid, is expected to 
make, the Espana declares that Spain cannot enter¬ 
tain it without dishonor. That the United States 
will seize the first opportunity, either by piratical 
expeditions, or exciting insurrections, or any other 
mode whatever, of possessing themselves of the 
island, the Espana does not doubt, and it complains 
that under such circumstances the Government dis¬ 
plays a great want of caution. 
Russia. —An imperial decree had been issued, 
providing for the partial enfranchisement of the 
Serfs. 
Italy.— An earthquake took place on the night 
of the 17th, throughout the whole kingdom of Na¬ 
ples, but its effects were most severe in the town of 
Salerno. Houses were rent from top to bottom — 
numerous villages were destroyed. The loss of life 
was great 
Commercial Intelligence. 
Bueadstuffs.—W heat, prime qualities are in moderate 
consumptive inquiry, at full prices. Other kinds are slow 
of rale. Flour is neglected. Indian corn quiet. 
Provisions.— Lard unchanged. Cotton quiet, with less 
inquiry. 
Election Excitement in Canada. —At the form¬ 
al declaration at Sandwich, C. W., Jan. 7th.. by the 
Sheriff of the elected Parliamentary candidate, the 
greatest excitement prevailed. Two or three thou¬ 
sand people assembled, and the Sheriff was obliged 
to flee to Michigan to save his life. Mr. McDonnell, 
reeve of Windsor, attempted to address the crowd, 
but he was beaten and severely injured. Mr. 
McLeod was declared elected over Rankin, the 
Ministerial candidate. 
The Toronto Globe rejoices over the election of 
Mr. Papineau, to the Provincial Parliament, over 
the Ministerial candidate. Mr. Papineau was one 
of the “ rebels” of 1837, and goes strong for a Re¬ 
publican government 
The well-known Wm. Lyon McKenzie has been 
re-elected to the Canadian Parliament. At the 
close of the first day’s polling he was 62 ahead, and 
the Globe says “he will go in.” 
Abolition of Serfdom in Russia. —The first 
steps for the emancipation of the serf in Russia aie 
soon to be published. They include the following 
two great principles:—1. Freedom of marriage.— 
No serf can be forced in future to marry against 
his will or prevented from marrying according to 
his own desire. 2. No serf can be transferred from 
one village to another against his or her will. The 
remainder of the ukase is less important. These 
two points, however, are sufficient to recognize his 
rights as man. It is likewise rumored that the pow¬ 
er of chastising the serf will be circumscribed, though 
not at once entirely taken out of the hands of the 
landlord. 
Rochester an Underground R. R. Depot.— 
Frederick Douglass’ Paper reports the arrival in 
this city, within sixty days past, of forty fugitives 
from Slavery, who have been cared for during their 
halt and sent forward to the Queen’s dominions.— 
This city appears to be an important way-station on 
the underground railroad. 
Steamship Travel. —During the past year 20,- 
171 persons went to Europe by steamship, and 34,- 
575 came to this country, making a total of 54,746 
passengers who crossed the Atlantic in the various 
ocean steamers. This number shows an increase 
of 24,587 passengers transported, as compared 
with 1856. 
Swiss Emigration. —According to a statement 
in the Bundesrath of Switzerland, to the American 
Envoy, about six to seven thousand Swiss have 
emigrated to the United States per year since 1854. 
They came mainly by the way of Havre. 
Report of the NT. Y. Bank Superintendent. 
The Bank Superintendent of the State of New 
York, in his Annual Report, makes the following 
recommendations for the government of these in¬ 
stitutions: 
1st Allow no mortgages to be taken hereafter as 
security for circulating notes. 
2d. Compel every incorporated Bank to gradual¬ 
ly replace its present circulation by notes secured 
in the same manner as the free bank notes. 
3d. Compel all Banks located in the city of New 
York to keep 20 per cent, of their average weekly 
deposits of all descriptions in coin, special deposits 
of coin not to form a part of the statement; and 
every bank out of that city to keep 20 per cent, of 
the quarterly average of its deposits either in coin 
or in balance to its credit, in some solvent bank in 
the city of New York, Brooklyn or Troy. 
4th. Allow every Banking Association or indi¬ 
vidual banker to commence the business of bank¬ 
ing upon a deposit of fifty thousand dollars in 
stocks of the United States or State of New York; 
but if bonds and mortgages are to be received as 
at present, the Superintendent recommends the en¬ 
actment of the acts of 1840-44, relative to Bank 
capital, in such language as shall place theii' con¬ 
struction beyond the reach of judicial decisions. 
Kansas Affairs. —The N. Y. Evening Post cor¬ 
respondent from Washington, of the 7th inst.. says: 
—“The dispatch received here from Fort Scott, 
dated Dec. 26, states that 300 Missourians, who have 
encamped near that place, have been compelled by 
Gen. Lane to liberate 30 Free State prisoners, and 
return to Missouri. One hundred dragoons, with 
civil officers, then undertook to arrest Free State 
men, but Lane, with a powerful force, resisted and 
prevented it. Thereupon the dragoons avoided a 
collision by returning to Leavenworth. Lane 
broke up his camp and peace was restored. There 
was general rejoicing among the settlers. The 
recent acts of the Kansas Legislature are sustained 
by the people. A letter from Lawrence, Kansas, 
says that present returns show 6,000 votes for the 
Lecompton Constitution, and they boast they will 
have ten thousand. The same letter states that 
the Free State men would probably take part in the 
election on the 9th by voting a bolter’s ticket. 
Death from a Fall. —Rev. Dr. Knox, of the 
Collegiate Reformed Dutch Church, New York 
city, died on the 9th ins*., from the effects of a fill 
received some days since. He had been for over 40 
years a minister of the gos; e! in that city.

THE WOOL MARKETS. 
NEW YORK, Jan. 6.—There is considerable more inquiry from 
Eastern manufacturers, but the transactions continue limited in con¬ 
sequence of the dilliculty in securing good paper or endorsed notes. 
Those of the commission men whoso credit remain unshaken stAnd 
on tlie defensive (the same as the banks during the late money crisis,) 
and offer but little if any aid to restore that confidence which is still 
wanted, and acts so ereat a part in the prostration of business; better 
far would it be for all to act in concert, and endeavor to set the ma¬ 
chinery of the country in motion again, and give work to the many 
willing hands which now spend their all and earn nothing. It is to be 
hoped that concert and action on the part of those concerned will no 
longer be wanting to restore confidence once more, and pave the way 
to prosperity. This must l>c adopted sooner or later, and the sooner 
die better ere the machinery go to min. In domestic the sales have 
been trivial; a parcel of 5,000 lt>s, super Saxony fleece at 423*0., cash, 
comprise the bulk of the sales which have come under our observar 
tion. In Foreign the weeks transactions include about 25 bales 
washed Entre Rios and 40 bales South American on terms not made

FIFTY.FIRST VOLUME. 
Since the death of its late lamented publLhor, Mr. 
Samuel Hueston, his interest in the KNICKER¬ 
BOCKER MAGAZINE has been transferred to the un¬ 
dersigned, who will prosecute its publication with all the 
energy and skill which A LARGE EXPERIENCE 
AND AMPLE FACILITIES AND MEANS will en¬ 
able him to command. He will endeavor to make it a 
truly American Magazine, worthy of the name, and sec¬ 
ond to none published in this country. 
The Christian Inquirer says: “As Mr. Gray generally 
accomplishes whatever he resolves upon, we have every 
confidence that his determination will bo realized, and 
that the ‘Knickerbocker’ of tlie future WILL SUR¬ 
PASS EVEN ITS LONG-SUSTAINED KXCKL- 
LENOE. Louis Gaylord Clark is still to continue, as 
he has continued for twenty-four years, tlie editorial su¬ 
pervision of tlie * Knickerbocker.’ ” 
The Editor, witli hat in hand, and one of his best bows, 
says:—“That while he is truly grateful for the affection 
which he has good reason to know exists throughout our 
country, in relation to the ‘ Knickerbocker,’ he will yet 
spare no pains to increase that agreeable feeling between 
himself and his readers. NEVER HAD HE MORE 
COPIOUS STORES OF ACCEPTABLE MATERI¬ 
ALS, in prose and verse, at his command than now; while 
the printing of Mr. Gray, so well known in New-York, 
and throughout the country, will insure entire excellence, 
in every respect, in the typographical department” 
EARLY AND PROMPT TRANSMISSION will al¬ 
ways be insured to all subscribers to, or agents of, the 
Magazine, whether neur, or at a distance from the me¬ 
tropolis. 
Of die many recent notices which have appeared of 
tlie “ Knickerbocker'’ in the public press, we give tho 
following: 
“The ‘Knickerbocker is THE CENTRAL POINT 
OF MORE WIT AND WISDOM, criticism and belles- 
lettres, fun, frolic, and facetia.‘,than has fallen to the lot of 
any publication in the western hemisphere at least”— 
DosUm Daily Tranm ript. 
“There is not a favorite or a rising American writer, in 
prose or verse,from WASHINGTf >N IRVING, COOPER, 
HALLECK. BRYANT. LONGFELLOW, HOLMES, 
who has not been represented in tlie * Knickerbocker;’ 
not by single articles, but by articles, In prose and verse, 
conti tiled for months. All of Mr. Irving's ‘CRAYON 
PAPERS' appeared in the ‘Knickerbocker.’ Bryant’s 
best effusions; all of I/ingfellow’s ‘ PSALMS OF LIFE.’” 
—Philadelphia Inquirer. 
“THE BEST-NATURED. BEST-FEATURED, BEST 
MANNERED MAGAZINE IN AMERICA IS THE 
NEW-YORK‘KNICKERBOCKER’ Its contributors 
are of the first rank, and its editor ‘ a perfect general’ in 
his way ."—Edgefield ( S. C.) Adv. 
“Our favorite of all tire American monthlies lies before 
ns, looking as meek and unpretending as a modest 
country maiden in tlie presence of her sweet-heart; yet 
brilliant within as a casket set with jewels, and full of the 
richest mental food—‘ A perpetual test of nectared sweets, 
wh»*re no crude surfeit reigns.’ Reader, you love a good 
tiling; did you ever see the * Knickerbocker’—glorious 
old ‘ Kniok’? If you have not, sit down at once and en¬ 
close three dollars to Mr. JOHN A. GRAY, the publisher, 
16 and 18 Jamb street, New-York, and for twelve months 
you will be fun ished with a inagszine WORTH TEN

TO Til55 SUBSCKIUEItS OF THE 
UNITED STATES JOURNAL. 
Ihe Popular Pictorial Monthly for 1858. 
HMHS POPULAR MONTHLY is now in its ninth year, and is ono 
X of tlie largest papers in tho world, each number containing sixty- 
four spacious columns, nearly oiglit hundred during tho year, and em¬ 
bracing as much interesting matter as tho ordinary tiiree-dollar 
magazines. • 
It is ably edited, profusely illustrated, and is printed on beautiful 
calendered paper, each number forming of itself a splendid maui- 
hiotii pictorial Its price is but Firry Cents a year and Postage Six 
Cents a year. 
Determined immediately, regardless of any outlay, to incroaso its 
already immense circulation to sevend hundred tiiousiuid, wo make 
tlie following 
UNPARALLELED OFFERS! 
To any Lady, who will send us ono subscription either for herself or 
for any other person, we will present a superb GOLD RING, and to 
any Gentleman a beautiful GOLD BREAST PIN, either of which 
retails at sevend times the lunount of subscription, or a choice of tlie 
50 cent books in our catalogue. 
To any iierson will send us two subscriptions ($1,) we will present a 
splendid DOLLAR BOOK, of his own selection, from a catalogue of 
several hundred of the most popular works of tho day, embracing tlie 
most superb presentation books, standard works, &c. 
Or, instead of tlie above, we will present him with his choice of 
twelve nuignificent Sled Plate Enyrauinos, lunong which are “Tho 
Signing of tho Death Warrant of Lady Jane Grey,” “ Tho Capture 
of Mill Andre,” <£c. 
Or, instead of either of the al>ove, wo will present him with a RICH 
GOLDEN GIFT, such as shall correspond with tlie register of his 
name, entered upon our books, in the order in which it is received.— 
Our schedule embraces articles of Jewelry of all prices from 25 cents 
to $100 each, including GOLD WATCHES, GOLD LOCKETS, 
GOLD CHAINS, GOLD BRACELETS, GOLD RINGS, GOLD 
BREAST PINS, Ac., Ac. 
Persons sending larger clubs will receive premiums equally liberal 
in proportion to tho amount they send. The established reputation of 
the Journal, its attractive appearance and marvelous cheapness, will 
enable any one with a little effort to form a club that will secure a 
handsome library, a magnificent set of ongravings, or a rich lot of 
jewelry. 
It is only fVom tlie fact that tho severe money pressure has enabled 
tlie publishers to secure these premiums at a very low rate that they 
are enabled to present this magnificent programme, and probably such 
an opportunity will never occur again. Persons desiring to take ad¬ 
vantage of it should send in their own subscriptions to commence 
with, and they will thus secure a specimen of our premiums, and also 
specimens of tho Journal, which will contain full particulars of our 
plans, and descriptive catalogues of our books, engravings and gifts. 
A specimen copy of the .Journal will he furnished gratuitously if 
desired, and those, who would like to satisfy themselves that the above 
offers will be faithfully earned out, can do so by sending for a 
specimen. 
GETTING RICH. 
Wc invito every lady or gentleman, desiring a pleasant money¬ 
making occupation, to apply for an agency for tho above Journul, and 
the American Portrait Gallery, the most superb subscription book 
ever issued in this country. We will refer them to some of our 
agents, now in tlie field, whose profits in tlie business, during tlie year 
1857, have amounted to over Put Thousand Dollars. An agent want¬ 
ed in every County not already taken.
