Arrival of the America. 
The steamer America, Capt. Lang, from Liv¬ 
erpool on ihe 13th, arrived at Halifax May Jith. 
t’lie Collins ship Arctic arrived at Liverpool 
on Wednesday evening, the 10th. 
Negotiations for an -alliance, offensive and de¬ 
fensive, between Sweden and the Allied Pow¬ 
ers, arc said to have progressed so favorably that 
they are on the point of being concluded. It is 
confidently staled to Paris that Spam, Portugal, 
and Piedmont, are willing to join the western 
powers, and if necessary to supply a contingent 
force Hanover declared against letters of mar¬ 
que, and tlie Paris Moniteur announces that 
Austria is about to do likewise. 
E'ourtcen Russian merchantmen have been 
captured m the Black iSea. Admiral Dumas 
lias proposed an exchange of prisoners. 
A new French loan of 250,000 francs, is talked 
of. l’he inhabitants ot Odessa are beginning to 
return to the town, and places ot business are 
opening again. The Banks have removed some 
distance tiom the town. England and France 
were still carrying on their warlike preparations 
on the most gigantic scale, ami a further increase 
in the armies of both countries was talked of.— 
Turkey and Russia are also engaged in strength¬ 
ening their positions. The position of Austria 
rema ned neutral. 
The English accounts report the force which 
attacked Odessa as consisting of the English 
steamers Samson, Terrible, Tiger, Retribution, 
Furious ; French steamers Magadore, Vauban, 
Bessartis and Oatori, also detachments of Eng- 
li.-h rocket boats. The mode of attack was : 
The steamers continued for twelve hours to sad 
round in a cruise of half a mile in diameter, and 
each steamer delivering lire as it passed — the 
rocKet boats continued to throw twenty-foui 
There had been four or five days rain duri = 
the fortnight, and the miners and farmers are 
thus well supplied with water. The news from 
the mines presents little of striking importance, 
though the season is extremely favorable, and' 
the gold produced is correspondingly large. 
The great event of the fortnight has been the 
trial and conviction of the Mexican Consul for 
enlisting men for the Mexican army, and the 
arrest of the French Consul for refusing to ap¬ 
pear as a witness. Gen. Wool has commenced 
publishing his correspondence on the subject.— 
The sentence of the Consul lias been fixed for 
the loth. He is htdd to hail in the sum of $10- 
000 . 
Among the marine arrivals have been 4 ves¬ 
sels from Hong Kong, with 2,000 Chinamen.— 
I he first number of a weekly Lithographic Chi¬ 
nese newspaper, called the «Golden Hills’ 
News,” made its appearance on the 28th. It, is 
about 16 by 21 inches in size. The Golden Hills 
is the Chinese name for California. 
At the mint, $1,200,000 of dust has been de¬ 
posited for coin and bars. 
Arrival of the Illinois. 
The Illinois with the California mails arrived 
at New \ ork, May 25th. She brings 600 pas¬ 
sengers and $700,116 06 in specie. 
1 he health ot the Isthmus was good. 
Oregon.— We have dates from Portland to 
the 22d of April. 
I lie coming election on the question of a State 
Government, is exciting great interest. Those 
m favor estimate that the population is 45,000, 
and the property $10,000,000. The opponents 
yG,000 as the limit of the population, and 
5)16,000,000 as the property. 
W ashingtox Territory, —The papers contain 
reports that rich gold diggings had been found 
at Steilacoon, on Puget Sound, and on the Ya- 
ki ma. liver, about 150 miles north-east from 
I uget Sound. 
Lower California.— Walker’s force is reduced 
to about 40 men, and their acts are described to 
be as cruel as those of the most hardened pi- 
i ales. They take property and life without a 
moment’s hesitation. He had crossed the Col- 
orado, hut returned, and is again at San Vin- 
ceiu. It is reported that they have ail been ta¬ 
ken prisoners. They must soon disperse, it 
they yet remain together. They have reduced 
a Luge number of families, some of them once 
wealthy, to beggars.

In round numbers, it appears that the 
conveyance alone of every British soldier to the 
seat ot war costs about 100, or rather, to state 
it more accurately, says the London Times, “we 
have to pay an average of £100 passage money 
tor every soldier we keep upon the roll of the 
expeditionary force, including the passage of 
horses and stores. 
Letters received by the America from a 
leading house in Loudon, mention that just 
previous to the closing up of the mail, the Lon¬ 
don bun had received telegraphic despatches, 
announcing the capture of Cronstadt by the 
allied Heel. 1 he loss on both sides was about 
3,UU0 men.

Prices of leading articles in the markets have varied 
considerably in both directions. Wheat and Flour are 
higher, Genesee being very scarce, and Ohio in many cases 
taking its place. Home-raised wheat is worth in this mar¬ 
ket $2,28, and flour §10,25@10,50. Coi n is quoted at 72@ 
75c. Oats are lower and more plenty, selling wholesale at 
50c. per bushel.

for first quality.

The Russians fought with extreme bravery, re¬ 
plying to the fire of cue ships. Towards night, 
the battery becoming untenable, its lire became 
slower but regular, and at length, the sliippin 
in tlie rear being on fire, it was silenced. Dur 
ing the action, red hot shot from the steamer 
Terrible blew up two Russian Magazines on the 
Imperial mole, and silenced a formidable bat¬ 
tery. The American frigate in tlie harbor took 
fire and burned to the water’s edge, together 
with twelve other vessels and two ships of war. 
The rockets al.-o set the lower part oi the city 
on fire, and it burned for two days. Three of 
the attacking steamers were disabled, and tin 
Vauban was set on tire, but it was extinguished. 
The British estimate their loss at less than 20 
killed and wounded. The Russians estimate 
their loss at 20 killed and 60 wounded. 
It was reported that for the present the Ad¬ 
mirals had abandoned the intention of attacking 
Sebastopol. 
Ti e report of the ship Baldaur, as to the 
steamship seen on the 2lst of April, received by 
tlie Franklin, is repeated, but with this impor¬ 
tant addition ;—“ Tlie steamer was headed north, 
but altered her course toward the Baldaur, and 
immediately disappeared. The Baldaur steered 
to the spot, and saw large quantities <>f biscuit 
and boxes. When the steamer was first seen, a 
barque was alongside of her; but the latter 
steered away south, and as no one was seen on 
board the steamer, it is surmised that the barque 
may have saved the passengers. 
California Delos. 
Arrival of the United States. 
The steamer United States arrived at New 
Orleans, May 22d, with two weeks later news 
from San Francisco. She has 100 passengers 
and a small amount of gold. The United Slates 
performed the quickest trip from Aspinwall 
ever known. 
The troops taken from Norfolk bv the Illi¬ 
nois were safely lauded at Obispojandall in good 
health. 
The clipper ship Golden Fleece, from Boston, 
was wrecked just as she was leaving the harbor. 
An explosion occurred on the steamer Gazelle, 
by which 20 lives were lost 
Arrival of the North Star. 
The North Star reached New York, on the 
25th instant 
On the 16th, Col. Fremont arrived from his 
mid-winter survey ol the Central railroad route, 
in lat 37°. The reports given by Col. Babbitt, 
ot the sufferings and deaths an on' the party, 
were much exaggerated. They lost one mini 
only. Col. F. reports the route to ho very ti 
j^rablc. Ho found only lj.j feet of enow in the 
Uiochekopo Main Pass of the Rocky Mountains. 
He says that from Pare wan, the Great Basin, 
the route cannot follow the west direction, hut

bles Pxss to 41 deg. 
^ The wheat crop has attracted much attention. 
Fears have been expressed that the crop would 
he much too large lor the demand of California, 
but this is not probable. The number of acres in 
wheat in the State is estimated to be about 80,- 
000, which at thirty bushels to the acre, would 
produce one and a half barrels of flour to each 
person iu the iState.

amount of $30,000 were destroyed. 
l he Jefferson County Democrat announ¬ 
ces tlie failure of Wheeler <fc Turners,of Water-

that they have been engaged iu buying produce 
on a large scale, and have thus drawn heavily 
on the banks in Jefferson and in some other 
counties.

BUSINESS AND FINANCE. 
There has been an unprecedented influx of the precious 
metals since our last financial report, no less than four 
steamers having arrived bringing freights from our golden 
sisier on the Pacific. The steamer United States arrived 
at New Orleans last week with a small amount of treasure ; 
and the Northern Light, the North Star, aud the Illinois at 
New York, briuging iu the aggregate two and a half mil¬ 
lions of gold. A portion of this treasure, or its equivalent 
heretofore received however has been transshipped to Eu- 
1 ope, thus making New \ ork a mere place of stoppage in 
transitu. The steamers Canada and Atlantic together 
with sail vesselsexported about a million and a half during 
tlie week. Still a large balance is left in the country to 
ti mutate internal trade. 
The total export of the precious metals thus far for the 
year has been about $12,000,000.

THE WOOL GROWER AND STOCK REGISTER. 
V ol. VI.— Enlarged and Improved ! 
Thk fact that the circulation of the W. G. & 8. R. has 
mo/e than trebled during the pnst two years, and is daily 
increasing, induces us to venture an enlargement and im¬ 
provement, which will at once render tile work far more 
acceptable and valuable, if not indispensable, to all engaged 
in Wool Growing, the breeding of Improved Stock, or the 
rearing of Domestic Animals generally. Though our 
arrangements are not entirely completed, we can safely 
announce that — 
On the conunencent of its Sixth Volume, July, 1851, the 
Wool Grower and Stock Register will be enlarged to 
1 oirty-Two Pages monthly, printed upon new aud hand¬ 
some type, and essentially improved in other respects. 
Tbe Teaily volume will comprise 381 octavo pages,* or 
double the number contained in the present, (exclusive of 
the advertising cover, w Inch will probably be omitted.)- 
This will give ample room for tlie discussion of ninny sub¬ 
jects which require altemion, but which we can scarcely 
notice with our present limited space. Among other 
matters, we propose to publish Pedigrees of pure bred 
catt.e, horses, sheep &c., and to give the names, residence, 
&e., ot the principal breeders of Improved Stock through¬ 
out the country —for the mutual benefit of owners and 
those desirous of purchasing. 
Arrangements are making to improve the quality, as 
well as increase tlie am unt of reading matter. Regarding 
the reliability and value of its Contents as of far more 
importance than the size or appearance of the paper, we 
shall endeavor to seeme the assistance, as contributors to 
ifs pages, of the best and most experienced writers on the 
various subjects discussed, — and cordially invite the co¬ 
operation of all disposed to aid ih enhancing its value and 
usefulness. 
Although we hope to double the value of the paper, its 
subscription price will not he increased — except perhaps 
to clubs of 20 or over. Single copies will be furnished at 
Fif.y Cents—5 copies for $2, and 8 for $3. ggr" The first 
five volumes, hound in colored paper, will he sent post-paid, 
and tlie numbers of the 6th volume as issued, for §3. 
The attention of all interested in the subjects and objects 
oi a Stock Journal, is respectfully solicited. The readeis 
of the Rural New-Yorker arc especially invited to give the 
w. G & S. R. an examination, and, if approved, their en¬ 
couragement. Specimen numbers, &c , cheerfully sent, 
gratis, to all I’pjiJicunis. Address

FETCH0M’S .ffta-ROVED MOWING MACHINE, 
With entire oha.mhi of Gear, the only SvocKtRflruL 
Mower Now Known. 
Ketchum’s Improved -Machine, which we are building for 
the harvest of ’o4, was thoroughly tested last season, and 
ihe advantages gained by our change of Gear are in all re¬ 
spects as we designed, viz : durability, convenience and ease 
of action. The shafts now have bearings at both ends, 
which overcomes all cramping and cuttiugawav of boxing. 
A counter balance is attached to the crank shaft, which 
gives it a steady and uniform motion. Each Machine can 
be thrown out of gear; there is great convenience in get¬ 
ting at each and every nut, all of them being on upper side 
of the frame: oil cups are attached to aii the bearings, 
which, by the use of a wad of cotton, will hold oil fof a 
long time, as well as protect the bearings from dugt, grit, 
.tc.; the finger bar is lined with iron its whole width, which 
protects it from wear. 
These and various other additions for strength, durability, 
>tc.; makes them the most simple and perfect agricultural 
implement in use. They weigh about 750 lbs. each, and 
can easily lie carried in a one-horse wagon. 
It requires not over ten minutes to get one ready for op¬ 
eration, there being but two bolts, (besides the pole bolts,) 
to be secured to have one ready for use. They will cut all 
kinds of grass, and operate well on uneven or rolling lands 
or where there are dead furrows. This Machine took the 
highest award, with special approbation, at the World's 
Fair; it also received, during last season, one silver aud 
four gold medals, and various other flattering and substan¬ 
tial testimonials of approval. \Y e have spared neither 
pains nor money to make this machine deserving of public 
favor, and hope to he able the coming season to supply the 
great and increasing demand. J 
We take this occasion to caution farmers against buying 
untried Mowers; if they do (as was the case with many last 
year) they will incur loss, vexation and disappointment. 
If any parts are wanted to repair any machine we have 
sold, or may hereafter sell, they will be'furnished and only 
manufacturers’ cost for the same be charged. 
rir In all cases where extras are wanted, be sure to give 
us the number of your Machiue. 
(Warranty:) That said machines are capable of cutting 
and spreading, with one span of horses and driver, from ten 
to fifteen acres per day of any kind of grass, and do It as 
well as is done with a scythe by the best of mowers. 
The price of the Mower, with two seta of knives and ex¬ 
tras, is $110 cash, in Bufialo, delivered on board of boat or 
cars free of charge.
