MOORE’S RURAE NEW-YORKER: AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 
Jottigu Intelligence. 
Arrival of the Baltic. 
The steamship Baltic, from Liverpool 3d inst., ar¬ 
rived at New York on the 19th inst. She expe¬ 
rienced a continual succession of heavy westerly 
gales during the entire voyage and very cold 
weather. 
Great Britain-.— The steamship Leviathan was 
successfully floated in the Thames on Tuesday, the 
31st of Jan. The first floating of the great ship 
was effected with perfect ease. She was towed by 
four powerful tugs to her moorings opposite Dept¬ 
ford, where she will remain until her internal ar¬ 
rangements are completed. 
The Atlantic Telegraph Company publishes a re¬ 
port to the stockholders. It is proposed to raise a 
certain amount of new capital by an issue of £20 
shares, with which to meet the charges for the 700 
miles of additional cable now manufacturing and 
to provide for contingencies. Great confidence is 
expressed of the success of the attempt to lay the 
•cable next summer. Cyrus W. Field is appointed 
general manager of the Co. 
The Prince and Princess Frederick William of 
Prussia, quitted England on the 2d inst. They 
proceeded from England by railroad to Gravesend, 
where they embarked in the Royal yacht. In the 
city of London, and along the route, there was a 
perfect ovation. 
A frightful colliery explosion had occurred at a 
pit near Ashton, under Lyne. About one hundred 
men were in the pit at the time, and it was feared 
many were killed. At latest dates 40 had been 
rescued alive, some more or less injured, and two 
dead. 
France. —The Americans in Paris had held a 
meeting numerously attended, and passed resolu¬ 
tions congratulating the Emperor on his escape, and 
denouncing the attempted assassination. 
The London Times is requested by Gen. Chan- 
garnier to state that it is not his intention at pre¬ 
sent to return to France. 
A decree appoints the Empress Regent in the 
event of the Emperor’s 'death before the Prince’s 
majority. 
The project of a new repressive law had been 
read in the Legislative Chambers. It empowers 
the executive to remove from Paris or imprison all 
persons attempting to disturb the public tranquillity. 
It was said that other sovereigns, including the 
Pope and Kings of Sardinia and Naples, were to 
have suffered assassination at the same time as 
Napoleon. 
India.— The Bombay mails of Jan. 9th, had ar¬ 
rived in England, but the news adds nothing to the 
Niagara’s telegraph account. 
The correspondent of the Daily News of the 13th 
asserts that the news from the Punjaub is unfavor¬ 
able. 
The Sikhs were not safe, and the Afghans threat¬ 
en on the frontier. 
Commercial Intelligence. 
Breadstuffs.—F lour neglected; prices nominal; much 
reduced rates asked without bringing forward purchasers. 
Philadelphia and Baltimore 23s@23s6d; Ohio 25s@27s; 
Western 21s@23s. Nothing doing in wheat and quota¬ 
tions nominal. Red 5s9d@6s, for west white 7s@7s6d.— 
Corn quiet, but unchanged for mixed and yellow; small 
sales at 23s@24s; white more plenty and rather easier, 
sales at 35s. 
Conflagrations and Casualties. 
Three thousand cords of wood belonging to the 
New York and Erie Railroad Co., were consumed 
by fire at Chemung, on the 16th inst 
No. 137, Hanover street, Boston, was destroyed 
by lire on the 17th inst Among the occupants of 
the building burnt were Wm. A. Burns, hardware; 
Chamberlin & Co., stoves; Williams & Morandi, 
sheet iron makers. Loss from $15,000 to $16,000. 
The buildings 42 and 44, Fulton street, Brook¬ 
lyn, occupied by various parties, the upper portion 
by boarders and families, were burnt on the 16th 
inst, and Nos. 40 and 46 somewhat injured. A Mr. 
Cook and wife were badly injured—the latter prob¬ 
ably fatally. Loss $25,000. 
The stores 56, Maiden Lane, New York, extend¬ 
ing through to 25, Liberty street, occupied by 
Wendell & Co., home furnishing goods, and Clias. 
Ahrenfield importer of china and glass ware, No. 
58, Maiden Lane, occupied by Fleet, cloth merchant, 
and Windle & Co., and No. 23, Liberty street, 
occupied by Ed. Hen, importer of fancy goods, 
were burnt on the ICth. Wendell & Co. lose $100,- 
000; fully insured. Ahrenfield $120,000; insured 
$100,000. Mr. Hen $40,000; fully insured. Mr. 
Fleet saved his stock without damage. Several 
minor losses occurred from water. 
A fire at Springfield, Ohio, on the 16th inst., de¬ 
stroyed the Western Public School building. Loss 
$10,000. Insured $5,000. Another fire destroyed 
a large stable valued at $700. Both fires are sup¬ 
posed to have been the work of an incendiary. 
The Pacific Hotel at St. Louis, was burned at 
3 o’clock on the morning of the 20th inst., and a 
dreadful loss of life ensued. The telegraph gives 
us the following particulars of this catastrophe:— 
About one hundred persons were in the house 
when the (ire broke out—forty or fifty of whom are 
missing. The following are the names of the per¬ 
sons known to be killed, so far: — Messrs. Bruce 
McKnight, Barkhart, Worst, Paul and Sterevett; 
Mrs. Jenny Jones and child, all of St. Louis; Mr. 
Johnson, of Chicago; Henry II. Rochester and T. 
Hart Strong, of Rochester, N. Y.; Mr. Sanders, Mr. 
Taylor, Geo. Crane and Miss Jones, residence un¬ 
known; Chas. Davis and Wm. Cunningham, of the 
Terre Haute and Alton Railroad; Mr. and Mrs. 
Hubbard; nine persons in one room, whose names 
are unknown, and a negro boy. 
The following are seriously injured:— James F. 
Geary, Reporter of the St. Louis Leader; Elhew 
Hays, of N. Y .; Jonathan Jones, Mr. Powers, Mr. 
Taner, and Mr. Sharp, watchman of the house. 
The fire caught in the drug store under the hotel, 
and spread so rapidly that the stairways were en¬ 
veloped in flames before the inmates could be 
roused. All egress was thus cut off, except through 
the windows. Many leaped from the third and 
fourth story windows and were horribly mangled 
and instantly killed, and many more were unable 
even to reach the windows, and were burned to 
death in their own rooms. Several more bodies 
are supposed to be in the ruins, and hundreds of 
excited men are energetically engaged in remov¬ 
ing the rubbish and searching for them. 
The wounded were promptly taken charge of by 
their friends, or sent to the Hospital, where their 
injuries were immediately attended to. 
J. Edward Barnes, the Superintendent of the 
Schuylkill Railroad, and Duncan Weir, Mine Agent, 
were suffocated by the gas in the coal mine at Ta- 
maqua, Pa., on the 15th inst. The bodies were 
recovered at midnight 
On the evening of the 19th, the Methodist Church 
in Sixth street, near Race, Cincinnati, was nearly 
destroyed by the explosion of defective gas pipes, 
at about seven o’clock. About one thousand per¬ 
sons were assembled in the basement for meeting 
when a strong odor was smelt and an effort made 
to discover the leakage. A light was applied to 
the metre when the blaze burst forth, but was ex¬ 
tinguished by a bucket of water. Quiet was almost 
restored when the explosion took place, tearing 
up the floor, scattering the walls and making a 
wreck of the entire basement More than half^the 
pews in the church were torn up, and portions of 
the floor blown as high as the ceiling. Doors were 
forced from their hinges and blown out in the 
street. The explosion was heard at the distance of 
half a mile. The windows of many buildings in 
the vicinity are destroyed. There were eight or 
ten persons severely wounded, and two or three of 
them are not expected to survive. 
What the Press Says. 
Qur acknowledgments are sincerely tendered to 
numerous members of the craft editorial from 
Maine to Mississippi, and Canada to California, for 
the very handsome and decided manner in which 
they have recently expressed their sentiments 
touching the beauty, value, usefulness and superi¬ 
ority of the Rural New-Yorker as an Agricultu¬ 
ral, Literary and Family Newspaper. We could 
easily fill a large portion of this number with very 
complimentary notices—though perhaps the pub¬ 
lication of any would not be considered modest.— 
But, as our readers may not object to the endorse¬ 
ment of their good opinion of the Rural, we ven¬ 
ture to give brief extracts from a few of the many 
voluntary notices renewed during the past month: 
As an Agricultural and Family Newspaper, the RURAL has no 
equal in the United States.— Economist, Markham, C. W. 
If you want to subscribe for a No. 1 Agricultural, Literary and 
Family Newspaper, wo would suggest the Rural Nkw-Yorker.— 
Tcnn. Recorder. 
Moore's Rural is the best weekly paper for the farmer’s family 
that we know of Its great success is evidence that real merit is ap¬ 
preciated at tlie firesides of our farmer's homes. — Blade, Toledo, O. 
We can say, with truth, that the Rural is the best weekly paper, 
devoted to agriculture, there is published—and is a paper that every 
fanner in the country should have in his family.— Gaz., Rochester, hid. 
Moore's Rural New-Yorker is perfect in all respects. It is 
worth a hundred dollars a year to any tanner, and we rejoice to say 
that its circulation is rapidly increasing in this part of Michigan.— 
Enquirer, Riles, Mich. 
“ Excelsior” is the very appropriate motio of the Rural ; it is de¬ 
voted to Agriculture, Horticulture, .Mechanic Arts, Science, Litera¬ 
ture, Education and News, and we cheerfully recommend it to our 
friends.— Republican, Grenada, Miss. 
Moore s Rural is the largest and neatest weekly Agricultural pa¬ 
per published in the United States, and we unhesitatingly pronounce 
it the best. It has had a flourishing existence of several years, and 
has reaped a rich harvest of praises.—Beat., Bowling Green, hid. 
We can always speak a good word for Moore’s Rural New- 
Yorker. It is doing no injustice to any of its agricultural contempo¬ 
raries to say it leads them all in real merit Since the 1st inst. it has 
donned a new dress, and is now a model in its typographical appear¬ 
ance.— Central Independent, Utica. 
As a family paper we think the Rural has no superior. Its me¬ 
chanical execution is very fine and its contents are better yet It is a 
paper for the fireside—lor the evening circle. It has thought and fact 
for men and women, and instruction and nnuLsement for boys and 
girls.— Journal, River Falls, I Vis. 
The New-Yorker makes no pretension to furnish the largest 
amount of matter for the least price, but what is far lietter and really 
cheaper, it excels in quality and value, and is worth far more than its 
cost to any one cultivating an acre of ground.— Democrat, Chester, lit. 
Moore’s Rural New-Yorker is becoming, we should say, is one 
of the favorites of the country. We claim for it the best family paper 
published. It is so well known that we need not attempt to describe it. 
Try it for one year and you will never do without it —Mt. 1’lcasant 
Advertiser, Iowa. 
Moore’s Rural New-Yorker.—L et the reading of such papers 
as the Rural be diffused among the young, and it will have a whole¬ 
some and beneficial influence upon them—they will be less likely to 
fail of becoming intelligent and useful members of society.— Sentinel, 
Morrison, 111. 
There is no paper better adapted to the wants of the farmer than 
the Rural While it teaches him practical lessons in his profession, 
it brings him all the latest news, with a variety of Literature, and di¬ 
vers other things of general interest None should be without it— 
Bulletin, Camden Falls, Min. Ter. 
Among the Agricultural, Literary and Family Newspapers, of the 
country, none ranks higher than the Rural New-Yorker. It is just 
what it professes to be, the leading paper of its kind in thcUnion.and 
no family who once becomes acquainted with it, knows how to spare 
its visits afterward.— Journal, Fteeport, III. 
. Moore’s Rural New-Yorker is decidedly f he paper for the mil¬ 
lion. It has no rival at any fanner’s fire-side where it lias once been 
introduced ; and those who do not read it, (if any such there are,) may 
safely Ire set down as behind the times. For the rural cot it has no 
rival—for the palace of wealth and refinement, no superior exists to 
crowd it out —Attica Atlas. 
t Moore’s Rural New-Yorker. —We recommend every one de¬ 
sirous of having a good Family and Agricultural paper, to got tins 
journal, which is by far tile best wo have ever seen, it is a large, ad¬ 
mirably got up, and reliable journal in all that pertains to Agriculture 
and Domestic Kconomy, and gives withal, a good synopsis of general 
news .—Ouen Sound Times, C. IF. 
The Rural New-Yorker, that paragon of Agricultural journals, 
lias been received. It isn’t worth while for a one-horse country editor 
to attempt a word of praise in its lavor ; bug like the Irishman, who 
exclaimed when convinced of bis error by his opponent in debate, we 
say, ’’ wid conscious inferiority. I submit to your superior judgment 
and stand thra paces back."— Bhcenkr, Richview, 111. 
Moore’s Rural New-Yorker begins the new year with a spark¬ 
ling new dress, in which the faultless taste of the editor and proprietor 
is exhibited. The matter contained in the first two numbers is worthy 
of its handsome setting. Maury, 1’cters, Prof. Dewey, T. S. Arthur, 
Mrs. I lolmes, and many other literary stars,contribute to the making up 
of an excellent agricultural and family weekly.— Roch. Bern, tfc Am. 
Moore’s Run w. New-Yorker. -This truly national work oil Ag¬ 
riculture, Literature and various other useful readings, is out in anew 
dress and with increased attractions for 1858 This is the leading work 
of the kind in the United States, and richly merits a wide-spread cir¬ 
culation. Its value to the agricultural, horticultural and mechanical 
classes cannot be estimated by the price asked for it —Star, Somer¬ 
ville, Tcnn. 
Moore’s Rural New-Yorker.— It is with pleasure that we call 
attention to this valuable weekly paper. It is none of your milk and 
water weeklies full of sickening nonsense, but a paper full of original 
and practical articles, which will instruct, elevate and amuse the peo¬ 
ple. As an Agricultural journal it is the best in the world, and we 
advise all our people who want a paper, well worth double the sub¬ 
scription price, to subscribe for the Rural New-Yorker.— Weekly 
Star, Morgantown, Va. 
Tiif. Rural New-Yorker.— This elegant Agricultural, Literary 
and Family journal, continues to maintain its reputation as one of the 
very best periodicals in tire Union. Every number is rich in articles 
upon Agricultural, Horticultural and Scientific, Mechanical, Literary 
and News mntter. interspersed with appropriate and beautiful en¬ 
gravings. It is honest, independent, reliable, and discriminating, 
correct in its teachings, instructive and entertaining to members of 
tire family circle, of a high moral tone, and entirely Deo from deceii- 
tion and quackery.— Gazette, Columbus, Ohio. 
With tire present year commenced the ninth volume of Moore’s 
Rural N ew-Yorker, the leading publication of its class in the world. 
The Rural has obtained an immense circulation, and continues to re¬ 
tain its old friends while it is constantly making new ones in eveiy 
quarter of country where it circulates. Tt is a peculiar paper, made 
up mentally and mechanically, regardless of expense, to suit tire views 
ol'its conductor, who seems to have learned Just what a large portion 
of our population require in the shape of a family newspaper. It is 
an able, high-toned, moral and instructive family newspaper, which 
can be read with profit by all. The illustrations of tire Rural have 
become a prominent feature, and the engravings which are designed 
to illustrate the practical matters upon which it treats, arc very be¬ 
coming .—Rochester Daily Union anil Adcerliscr. 
A Law Point Decided. — The Supreme Court 
has just passed upon an interesting law point with 
regard to streets, cross-walks, &c. The Court de¬ 
cides that “ at regular crossings the road belongs 
to the man on foot, and the carriage must go at 
such a pace as will not endanger him. At places 
where there is no paved crossing the carriages have 
the right of way, not the foot passengers.’’ And 
in all cases one is bound not to check vehicles un¬ 
necessarily, and the other to proceed with due 
caution against endangering pedestrians. 
The St. Lawrence River is now completely closed 
by ice between the American and Canadian shores. 
Stages leave Cape Vincent regularly twice a day,

THE WOOL MARKETS. 
NEW YORK, Feb. 16.—The market still lacks activity, and the im¬ 
proved feeling perceptible a few weeks since begins to disappear, as 
the season progresses, on account of the unsatisfactory state of trade 
in the goods market Two more of our most successful manufactu¬ 
rers have failed the past week, aud the query recurs, will not most of 
the others be obliged to follow in their wake, unless a better demand 
prevails for woolons soon? In Native Fleeces sales of some 40,000 
lbs super have been made at 36@40c, time, and 40,000 tbs Pulled at

NOT MARRIED. 
Livonia, Feb. 15, 1858. 
Mr. Moore:—Sir —In glancing over the columns of your paper, I 
noticed among tiie marriages in the last No., dated Feb. 13th, that 
I was represented its being married to Miss Kate M. Clarke, which, 
being false, I would lie happy to see corrected. The object of such a 
notice I do not understand. Yours, lee, Edwin 0 Long. 
Remarks. —In addition to the above we have received a note from 
“ the party of the second part," denying the soft impeachment in this 
wise:—“ I am happy to say I am still unmarried, and shall, for along 
time, answer to my original name.” 
In explanation of the publication aforementioned, we can only say 
that tho notice was handed into the office, and, supposing all was 
right, was inserted without any suspicion. We always require a re¬ 
sponsible name when notices of marriage or death are sent by letter ; 
but we now purpase to make our rale still more stringent After this 
date we shall charge 50 cents for the insertion of each and every 
obituary or marriage notice not exceeding four lines, and 25 cents for 
each additional line—and also require the name of a responsible party. 
The Political and Religious papers charge for such notices, and why 
should not tiie Rural? Wc occasionally receive $1 for inserting a 
marriage notice, and of coarse shall not object to other happy people 
doing likewise!— Ed.
