MOORE’S RURAL NEW-YORKER: AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER 
11 
Arrival of the Persia. 
The steamer Persia, from Liverpool, arrived at 
New York on the 24th ult. 
Advices have been received in England from 
Bombay to the 17th, and from Calcutta to Nov. 11th. 
British reinforcements were arriving at different 
Indian forts at the rate of 2,000 men per week.— 
The mutineers at Lucknow were estimated at 50,- 
000 to 70,000. No communication has been had for 
a month, but it was believed that the garrison 
would hold out Greathead’s column, five thousand 
strong, had reached within three miles of Luck¬ 
now, and Colin Campbell left Cawnpore with five 
thousand more on the 9th for Lucknow. Numerous 
successful encounters with the mutineers are re¬ 
ported at various points. No more outbreaks had 
occurred. The King of Delhi’s life will be spared. 
The mutineers burnt alive all wounded soldiers who 
fell into their hands at the seige of Delhi. 
Hong Kong dates are to Oct 20. Preparations 
were making for the assault of Canton. 
The House of Commons has appointed a special 
committee to consider the bank charter and com¬ 
mercial crisis. 
Lord John Russell has obtained leave to bring in 
a Jewish disabilities bilL 
Palmerston proposes to adjourn on the 12th of 
Dec. to the 4th of February. 
Demand for money gradually diminishing. Rates 
in discount market were lower than at Bank. 
Funds buoyant Several more failures—mostly 
German houses. Farley & Co.’s Worcester Bank 
had stopped. It was a small affair. The Wolver¬ 
hampton Bank resumes business. 
Hamburgh advices conflicting. 
Late dispatches report the crisis more alarming, 
and a general break-up imminent 
Gold was flowing plentifully to Bank of England. 
Bank of France also gained a large amount of spe¬ 
cie, and a still further reduction in rates was an¬ 
ticipated. 
Government granted credit of a million of francs 
to relieve the distressed. 
An amnesty had been granted in Spain for polit¬ 
ical offences. 
The Belgium elections were going in favor of the 
Liberals. 
The panic had extended to Warsaw. Numerous 
failures there. 
Commercial Intelligence. 
Breadstufps.—T he weather has been extremely mild 
for the season. Arrivals from the United States have been 
considerable, and there being but limited inquiry for any 
articles, holders have in most instances been obliged to 
accept a further reduction, the only inquiry being for 
prime red and white American wheats, which are scarce. 
On the 11th ult., the market was fairly attended, and a 
more general consumptive demand was experienced for 
wheat at an advance of Id per 70 tbs.—useful red America. 
Flour was somewhat more easy of sale, although the ex¬ 
tent of business was rather circumscribed, at about 6d per 
bbl. advance. Demand for corn was exceedingly slow, at 
a reduction of 6d per quarter on mixed and yellow,and 
l@2s on white, fine having been sold at 28s per 480 lb.— 
We quote American white wheat at 6s9d@7s; extra, 
7s2d@7s6d; red, 6s@6s4d; extra, 6s@6sl0d, per 70 lbs.— 
Baltimore, Philadelphia and Ohio flour at 25s@26s; West¬ 
ern Canal, 24s@25s. Corn, mixed and yellow, 3-s0d@33s; 
white, 38s per 480 lbs. 
Provisions.—I. ard, still very dull and transactions re¬ 
stricted to the merest retail sales at a further decline.— 
Pork—Nothing doing in American. 
Emancipation in the Dutch West Indies. — It 
has already been announced that Holland had pro¬ 
vided for the emancipation of slaves in her colonies 
in the West Indies. While the act is much behind 
that of England, it i9 said to be much more just in 
providing a fair equivalent to the slaveholder for 
his slave. For healthy slaves a rate of indemnifica¬ 
tion is fixed according to their ages, differing in the 
different islands. For sick slaves a reduced price 
will be paid, which is to be fixed after the slave has 
been examined by two physicians, one appointed by 
government and the other by the owner thereof.— 
No price is to be paid for runaway slaves, who have 
been absent more than two years. The emancipated 
slaves will be placed under humane regulations, 
providing for their religious and .educational im¬ 
provement, and obliging them to contribute for the 
formation of a fund destined to pay back to the 
State the expenses of their emancipation. Children 
of emancipated parents, born after the proclama¬ 
tion of this law, are free, and not subject to the re¬ 
strictions which their emancipated parents are un¬ 
der; and they are to remain under the control of 
their parents to the age of twelve years. The date 
for the emancipation of the slaves is to be fixed by 
the home government

From Mexico. — Another Revolution. — The 
steamship Tennessee lia3 arrived with dates from 
the City of Mexico to the 17th ult. Another revo¬ 
lution broke out on the 10th ult The Garrison at 
Tacuyaba pronounced against dissolving of the 
Congress and the overthrowing of the Constitution, 
and the declaring of Comonfort dictator. Yera 
Cruz followed the example, and it was expected the 
rest of the States would also do so. Later accounts 
from Yucatan state that re-actionists had captured 
Eisel—which again was re-taken by Government 
troops. 
New Railroad Enterprise. —Two detachments 
of men—one from New Orleans, the other from 
New York—have recently sailed for Yera Cruz, 
fully equipped for a thorough exploration and 
survey of a Railroad route from Yera Cruz to the 
city of Mexico, and thence, if there be a practicable 
route, to Acapulco, or some other port on the Pacific. 
The enterprise is in the charge of Captain Talcott, 
formerly of the U. S. Army, a graduate of West 
Point, and distinguished for his attainments in the 
science of Engineering. Some of the wealthiest 
men in Mexico are engaged in the undertaking. 
Important from Nicaragua.— A telegram just 
received from New York, states that the Northern 
Light has arrived, bringing intelligence that Gen. 
Walker, the Fillibuster, has surrendered, with his 
entire force, to Com. Paulding, of the U. S. Navy 
Kecent Conflagrations. 
The dwelling house of Mr. Ira Harmon, of Wheat- 
land, wa3 destroyed by fire on Wednesday night, 
together with all its contents, the family escaping 
with few of their clothes. We have not heard the 
amount of their loss, but presume there is a fair 
insurance upon the property. It is said that the 
fire originated from ashes placed in some wooden 
receptacle. 
The barn of Geo. Sargent, near Brattleboro', Yt., 
was destroyed by fire the 21st ult, together with 
eighteen head of cattle, a horse, several hogs, and 
a large quantity of hay and grain. The burning 
was the work of an incendiary. 
On the morning of the 25th ult., a fire was dis¬ 
covered in the Variety Store of Henry Hart, suc¬ 
cessor to G. B. Flersheim, 171, Main street, Buffalo.

The fire took in the rear of the store, and was so 
far advanced when seen that it could not be con¬ 
trolled. His loss is estimated at $20,000; insured 
for $9,000. The stock of Stillman & Co., No. 169, 
Main street, consisting of hatter’s goods and furs, 
was much damaged by water. Mr. Stillman had 
his usual large winter stock on hand, valued at 
from $25,000 to $28,000. His insurance is only 
$4,000. Mr. Wm. Kemp, house and sign painter, 
occupied rooms over the variety store. His stock 
was destroyed; loss small. Mr. Marsh, tailor, lo3t 
his entire stock, which was in the same building. 
Nankin Sheep.— A New York paper thu3 speaks 
of one of the curiosities at the recent Cattle Show 
of the American Institute in the Crystal Palace — 
the Nankin sheep exhibited by Mr. R, L. Pei.l:— 
“Three years ago, Capt Smith imported three ewes, 
in lamb, out of which Mr. Pell says he has killed 
for mutton, or had destroyed, 36 head, and lost 45 
lambs. He sold first to Mr. Pell three ewes and 
one buck, and these number 16 now, and those, 
with the 72 now purchased, make 88, while the 
whole increase, if living, would make a flock of 169 
head. One ewe had twelve lambs in fifteen months. 
One in the pen now has three small lambs. The 
flock have lived out of doors upon Capt. Smith’s 
island, and had lambs in the winter.” 
Great Potato Crop.— A Chicago paper states 
Mr. Geo. Shoecraft, of White Pigeon, Michigan, 
(formerly of Penfield, this county,) planted the last 
season three hundred and twenty acres to potatoes, 
and raised about 40,000 bushels! Up to Dec. 1st, 
he had sent 10,000 bushels to Chicago, and 15,000 
to New York. About 1,000 barrels of the latter

THE WOOL MARKETS. 
NEW YORK, Dec. 23.—After weeks of continued dullness and de¬ 
pression, never before, perhaps, equaled, the market at last manifests 
symptoms of returning animation; and, although prices are not yet 
fully established, there is decidedly a firmer tone to the market, and 
less disposition now to realize, unless at a slight improvement on sell¬ 
ing prices a week or two since. Most of the woolen manufacturers 
whose works have been silenced for the past two or three months, are 
now making many efforts to start their milts again ; but some find 
much difficulty in procuring the raw material, uiiless for cash, which, 
unhappily, is very scarce among many if not all of them. Some, 
therefore, are obliged to work up the raw material on shares ; we no¬ 
tice sales of 20,000(230,090 lbs. native, common nnd fine fleeces at 
prices varying from 25 up to 6 6 mos.; and 20,000 tbs. Pulled at 
22@25e- for No 1 Pulled, and 26(a)28c. for extra Country do. In for¬

Mr. S. lost none of his potatoes by the rot. He uses

The Indians in Florida.— The War Department 
has received dispatches from Col. Loomis, com¬ 
manding in Florida, giving details of the army op¬ 
erations in capturing the Indians and destroying 
their depots of supplies, &c. The hiding place of 
Billy Bowlegs has at last been found, and he has 
received a severe blow by the capture of his women 
and children. Billy, it is said, has held a council, 
and at the risk of his life, entreated the Indians to 
come in, and only saved it by striking a blow when¬ 
ever an opportunity occurred. 
Quite an Egg. —Mrs. Jos. A. Allen, of South Bris¬ 
tol, Ont Co., N. Y., communicates the following:— 
“Although pretty late in the season for hens to 
think of laying double-yolked eggs, a few days 
since upon boiling what I supposed to be a double- 
yolked egg, just taken from the nest, I found it to 
contain four perfectly formed yolks, two of ordi¬ 
nary size, and upon one side of each of these was 
another, making four in all. I regret that I did 
not take the dimensions of the egg, as it was a 
monster. Beat it who can.” 
The Boston Journal says:—“It is stated of one of 
our leading citizens, that a year or two ago he was 
estimated to be worth three-quarters of a million 
of dollars. At the present moment, by the depre¬ 
ciation of property in which he had invested his 
money,it is doubted by competent judges if his en¬ 
tire estate is worth one hundred thousand dollars.” 
Washington Irving, now seventy-five years old, 
walks to Dr. Creighton’s Church, in Tarrytown, (of 
which we believe he is a vestryman,) and back, five 
miles, nearly every Sunday.

Flour—N o change from our quotations of last week. 
Grain—A ll kinds of Grain are as last quoted. There is so little 
doing in Wheat hereabouts, that our rates may be classed nominal. 
Poultry of ail descriptions is down to-day lc. (9 lb. and dull. This 
is more owing to the mildness of the weather than surplus in the 
market 
Farm Produce brings better rates. Batter, Cheese, Eggs, Pota¬ 
toes, Ac, have advanced. See prices. 
Hay is more plenty to-day in market than at almost any other time 
this winter. Prices unaltered, but dull of sale. 
ROCHESTER WHOLESALE PRICES. 
PORK TRADE OF THE WEST. 
Cincinnati.— The Cincinnati Price Current of Dec. 15th m a review 
of the Pork Market of that city, says:—“The receipts of hogs durine 
the first four days of the week having fallen off very largely—indeed, 
Friday and Saturday they were but a few hundred each day—die 
market assumed a buoyant tone, and an advance of fully 50 cents 
per cwt. was established, comparing the prices obtained on Monday 
with those obtained the previous Wednesday, and the feeling of hol¬ 
ders was decidedly more buoyant than the market and they seemed 
to believe that prices would certainly reach $6. The regular dealers, 
though a little more restless, kept quite “ cool," nnd did not seem wil¬ 
ling to enter into the spirit of the matter with that energy necessary to 
get up an excitement in the market generally. Tuesday morning die 
i eceipta exceeded 8,000 head, by all the routes, and this, witli the sad 
ad\ ices from New Orleans, produced a dull and heavy market boUi 
for the hog and its product; and at die close diere were several anx¬ 
ious sellers, but no buyers. The number of hogs which arrived from 
Ol’.io and Indiana during the week is quite small. In fact, the Ohio, 
Indiana, and Illinois hogs have not yet commenced tq arrive fully, and 
it is clear now diat a large business will be done in January- The re¬ 
ceipts, so far, are vastly behind those of last or any previous year, but 
tliis, taken in die abstract, is calculated to mislead, ns this season is 
unusually backward, fanners being anxious to feed their hogs as long 
as possible, and this is both logical and prudent, because even $3,60 
net, pork would pay better than to ---lithe com at 10(215c per bushel 
in die field. The receipts of hogs lor die season, number 172,938. 
Louisville.— 1 The Journal of the 23d ult says:—“To use a com¬ 
mercial phrase, the hog market is ns flat as a pancake. The weather 
on Sunday was favorable for killing, but yesterday it was too warm, 
and eonsequendy till operadons at the pork houses were suspended.— 
There are plenty of sellers but no buyers. The range may now lie 
given from $4,50 to $5 net—the outside price for heavy hogs. The. 
only transaction reported yesterday was 610 Indiana hogs, of which 
ICO, heavy, sold at $5, and the remainder, light weights, at $4,50—the 
lot averaging about $ 1,75. The product is also much depressed, a41 
quotations are entirely nominal The Cincinnati, and, in fact all the 
markets are very dull, and prices here are fully as high as at any 
other Western point Slaughtered up to date 130,545; in pens 13,734." 
Chicago.— 1 The Democrat of the 22d ult remarks:—“Receipts the 
Inst week have been fair, diough rot large; diev amount to 10,000 
head. Our packers have not been operating very largely and most of 
die week's receipts have been taken bv Wisconsin dealers. It is 
probable, however, that die packing dining the coming week will be 
heavy, as some of the houses are expecting large receipts on previous 
engagements. It is difficult to correctly estimate the number already 
packed this season, but as far as can be ascertained it approximates 
10,000 head, while 61,500 head have been received since the season 
commenced seven weeks ago Saturday. While this is nodiing to boast 
of, it still shows a largo increase over last year's business, when cir¬ 
cumstances were much more favorable than now; and that our city 
will soon dispute the palm with her sister cides of die West who have 
heretofore monopolized diat business. Prices during the week have 
ranged from $3,00(23,80 for live with some sales of very choice heavy 
at $3,90@4,05 and $4,25(24,50 for dressed. Receipts to-day were 
large, amomiting to over 3,500 head; 2,600 of those were received by 
Eastern buyers, who immediately shipped diem by rail About) 400 
were left for sale upon the market, and the balance were delivered to 
the packing houses upon previous contract Among sales were 48 
head, averaging 290 to 3001bs, at $3.75 ^1 cwt. gross; 50 averaging 236 
lbs. at $3,70, and 100 averaging 280 Its. at $3,80; a few inferior sold 
at $3,60.”
