Arrival of tlie Baltic. 
The Baltic arrived at Now York Feb. 21st. 
A new British Ministry is formed. Premier, 
Lord Palmerston ; War, Lord Panmure, for¬ 
merly of Oxford; Foreign, Earl of Clarendon ; 
Home, Sidney Herbert; Colonial, Sir George 
Gray ; Exchequer, W. Gladstone ; Admiralty, 
Sir James Graham ; Chancellor, Lord Cran- 
worth ; President of Council, Earl Granville ; 
Private Seal, Duke of Argyle ; Public Works, 
Sir W. Molesworth ; President of Control, Sir 
Charles Wood ; Postmaster, Lord Canning ; 
without office, Marquis of Lansdowne. Aber¬ 
deen, Newcastle and John Russell go out.— 
Panmure comes in and tlio balance is the same 
as the late Ministry. 
Very little other news. Mr. Meagne has 
been appointed French Minister of 1* inance, 
and Rouher Minister of Agriculture. 
The Vienna peace conference is not yet open. 
Afiairs in the Crimea unchanged. There 
was reported a battle between the Russians 
and Turks on the Danube. The Turks were 
reported victorious. Also reported a mutiny 
of Zouaves in the Crimea, and 400 were sent 
to Constantinople. 
The steamer Great Britain would leave in a 
few days with 1,650 troops for the Crimea. . 
Lord Cowley, the British Minister at Ians, 
has made known to the I rc ucn Government 
the Canadian contribution of £20,000 in aid ot 
the widows and orphans made by the war, and 
states that he is prepared to hand over to t ic 
F rench Government the sum of 2o0,000 iiancs, 
which belong to France. The Moniteur pub¬ 
lishes Lord Cowley’s letter and the Canadian 
address. , 
It is said that Trince Mensclnkoff has orders 
to attack Eupatoria and Balaklava. It is there¬ 
fore probable that Gen. Osten Sacken, support¬ 
ed by the Grand Dukes Michael and Nicholas, 
will shortly attack the Allies, and while the 
weather is propitiatory. Omer Pasha, it is 
addod, as soon as the fortifications of Eupatoria 
are completed, will march on Sevastopol, 
when in all probability a grand battle will be 
fought. 
In a dispatch from Warsaw.of the 5th inst., 
in the Prussian Gazette, it is stated that an 
order has been received that all the Russian 
forces in the vicinity of Crakoff and on the 
Austrian frontier should retreat with all possi¬ 
ble despatch into the interior of the country. 
According to a dispatch from Vienna, it ap¬ 
pears that the Grand Duke Michael is lying ill 
of ague at Cherson, and that the Grand Duke 
Nicholas is at Sevastopol. 
The French soldiers are impatient to com¬ 
mence the attack upon Sevastopol, and Gen. 
C nrobert has been compelled to moderate 
their ardor. 
The English missionaries to the Jews in Po¬ 
land are ordered to leave the Russian territory. 
Their printing materials, book bindery, libra¬ 
ry and chapel have been taken possession of 
by the Russian authorities and offered for sale. 
Corn market dull with a limited business 
and unchanged. Sales of old Western 42 a 
42s. 6d. ; new 37s. a 40s. ; Ohio 44s. a 45s.— 
Wheat lls. a 12s. 6d.

Arrival of the George Law. 
Thk George Law arrived at New York Feb. 
6 th, with California dates to the 1st of Feb.— 
She brings $1,100,000 in specie, and 304 pas¬ 
sengers. Among them is General Echinque, 
President elect of Peru. 
The transit on the Isthmus is rapidly made 
from ocean to ocean by Railroad, and the for¬ 
mal opening of the line was to take place on 
the 20th of February. 
The steamer Pearl exploded near Sacramento, 
and about seventy lives were lost, including 
Col. Alexander Anderson, a distinguished law¬ 
yer of Nevada, and a native of Va.; the Cap¬ 
tain and Mate of the vessel, and about twenty 
Chinamen. Fifty-three dead bodies had been 
found, and twenty more were missing. It was 
ascertained that the Pearl was racing at the 
time with the Enterprise, but the agents deny 
this. Both boats were on their way from Sac¬ 
ramento to Marysville. A large amount of 
treasure was on board, but was recovered. 
Thirty-eight ballots had been had for U. S. 
Senator, without effecting a choice. The last 
ballot showed no material difference from the 
first. The Legislature passed a bill appropri¬ 
ating $1,000 to each member. The Governor 
refused his sanction to it, but it subsequently 
passed the Assembly in spite of the veto, by a 
vote of 65 to 21. 
The papers teem with more than the aver¬ 
age quantity of crime. A man named George 
Sheldon had been hung at Oakland by a mob, 
and a native Californian and two Chilians suf¬ 
fered death in like manner, for having com¬ 
mitted numerous murders. 
Indian troubles in the neighborhood of 
Kalamath river are becoming alarming, and a 
number of white men had been killed, and 30 
Indians. It is feared that there will be a gen¬ 
eral rising among the Indians of the north. 
The rain had again set in much to the grati¬ 
fication of the miners. Business continues 
exceedingly dull. Hams in dry salt 17c ; but¬ 
ter 47c ; bacon 15c ; flour dull. 
An Emphatically Laiigk Family. —Ephriam 
Brown, who died in Sodus, N. Y., about three 
years ago, weighed 270 pounds, and was six 
feet two and a half inches in height. His wife 
weighed 200 pounds, and was five feet ten 
inches in height. These parents had fifteen 
children, nine boys and six girls. The average 
height of tho nine was six feet one and a half 
inches ; average weight, 205 pounds. The 
average height of the girls was five feet eight 
inches, and the average weight 150 pounds.— 
Six of the boys could turn somersets on the 
ground equal to the best circus performers. 
Justice at Last. —The British Admiralty 
Chart of the Arctic Sea, lately issued, gives to 
the land discovered by the Grinnell Expedition 
the name of “ Gunnell's Land.” In a former 
Chart it had been called Prince Albert’s Land. 
The correction is a handsome acknowledgement 
of Mr. Gunnell's benevolent enterprise. 
TnE Adjutant General of Pennsylvania esti¬ 
mates the militia force of that State at 800,000.

Rural New-Torkrr Office, 1 
February 28, 1855. j 
There have been changes, though not to a great amount, 
in various articles of farm produce. Wheat and Hour re¬ 
main as previously quoted, but it is doubtful whether any 
Genesee wheat soils at tho minimum_Gguro._Corn is un- 
clianged.~ Good oats are worth 45c. Beans are a shilling 
better, as also are apples, y_■ 
r Meats have continued to rise slowly as tha soason ad- 
vanced and may now bo quoted as follows fo r good qual- 
ity: Pork $7; Beef $6©6,50_Mutton $4,60(2)5._ 
^ The wool market continues "as" it has tnrough all the 
past season7 very muen depressed, and the depression 
will not probably be relieved under the additional dis¬ 
couragement of a reduced tariff on the raw material, the 
duty on which, by a bill passed last Saturday through 
the House of Representatives, by a vote of 126 to 82, is 
cut down to ten per cent ad valorem. 
p There has boen quite an unexpected movement of spe¬ 
cie during the week, tho Atlantic taking out $1,326,000, 
and the Washington $124, 960 . The George La w brin gs 
in $1,100,000 in the mean time, widely however, still 
makes us the losers by moro than $350,000. Stocks have 
rocovored from the extreme depression of a few months 
since, and tho money market is comparatively easy.
