teries while tiie Russians destroyed theirs, and 
fell back on the main fortress. By the l2ih the

BUSINESS AND FINANCE, 
No gold has been received fiom California, during the 
week, out a mtiliou and a half has gone abroad ; in fict, 
for months past the shipments have trodden well on the 
heels of the receipts of precious metals, and the enormous 
importations o( foieigu goods give an earnest of no abate¬ 
ment in tliis ebb tide of the precious metals. 
The decretaly of the Treasury has issued proposals for 
a still fuitlier redemption of U. S. stock iu adrauce of its 
falling due, giving a premium on stock redeemable in 185b 
of 3 per cent; i n 1862, of 11 per rent.; in 1807, of 10 pel 
Cent. The time liin.tod for redemption on these terms, is 
to the 20th day of November next. 
Twelve hundred and tif y thousand dollars of the 6 per 
cent. State Cantl Enlargement Loan has been awaide" 
during the week, to bidders at a premium ranging fi om 12 
60-100, to 10>i per rent ; terms, it must be conceded, very 
advantageous to the State. 
Railroad slocks continue depressed; Erie lias continued 
to go down with a rush, and on Monday sold at 29, a point 
of depression never bif .re reached. It rallied again, how¬ 
ever, and at the second board went up to 31. The end is 
■not yet.

Departments—the full particulars of which will be found 
in the List of Premiums published. A large portion of 
the Premiums are open to competition by persons out of 
the State. 
It is believed that this combined exhibition will be the 
most extensive ever held in tiiis country, and will afford to 
exhibitors advantages never before offered, in every de- 
partmentof the Exhibition, combining the entire, industrial 
inteiests of the Farmer, Manufacturers, Mechanics, Horti¬ 
culturists, and Artizans of our country. 
Persons desitous of examining the List of Premiums and 
Regulations, or of entering stock, implements or other 
articles for exhibition, will please apply to B. P. Johnson, 
Sec’y, State Agricultural Rooms, Albany; at the Rooms 
of the American Institute, 351 Broadway ; or Janes, Bek- 
»e & Co., 356 Broadway, New York. wb**re the Premium 
List and Regulations w ill be furnished, and every desired 
information in relation to the Exhibition given. 
Stalls and fodder for stock, and erections for the other 
articles, will be furnished in season, so that all articles de¬ 
signed for exhibition can be taken to the show grounds on 
•i.. ir ;. ut in the city, where they will be provided for 
and protected. 
The f Rowing Railroads have agreed to transport all 
stock and a 1 tides for the exhibition, free — requiring the

effective in new, un ven or stumpy ground; one half be¬

t .e command comes —Go forward ! 
The New York Teat/ur uas already attained a circulation 
un; arat.eieU by any other Educational Journal in the U. 
Stales. But the Managers piopose to commence the next 
volume, beginning Oct. 1, 1854, with an edition of Five 
Thousand Copies. They have decided to increase the num¬ 
ber of pages at least to forty-eight of reading matter, and 
hope occasionally to teach sixty-four The size of the 
page will also be increased, so that a great amount of mat¬ 
ter may be inserted without the use of small type, which 
i* so injurious to the eye-sight, and so unpleasant to the 
reader As this will double our circulation, so it will 
dsiub.'e our expenses. The outlays for the coming year are 
estimated at over $1,000. 
The lditokial Fo-.ck to be employed on the Teacher 
for ttie ensuing year, is more extensive and varied tiu-n

THE HORSE, THE HORSE! 
Noblest of Domestic Animals, 
And the one most frequently ill-treated, neglected, and 
abused. We have just published a b' ok so valuable to 
every man who ovrn* a Horse, that no oue should willing¬ 
ly be without it. It is entitled 
THE MODERN HORSE DOCTOR, 
And is from the pen of that celebrated English Veterinary 
Surgeon, Dr. GEU. II. DADD, well known for many yeiis 
in this country, as one of the most successful, scientific 
and popu.ar writeisand letturers in this branch of medi¬ 
cal and surgical science. The book which he now offers to 
the puiific, is tiie result of many y ears’ study and practiced 
expei it rice which few have had. 
From ibe numerous and strong commendations, of dis¬ 
tinguished men and the newspaper press, we select the 
following: 
Extract from a letter from Hon. John II. Clifford, Ex- 
Covcruur of Mass. 
New Bedford, May 71, 1854. 
Dr. Dadd ,—Dear Sir :*I hope your new work on the 
noblest denture unit man has ever been permitted to hold 
in subjection, the horse, will meet with tnat success which 
all your efforts in this direction so well des-rve. 
Your obedient servant, 
Jonx H. Clifford. 
From lion. Marshall P. Wilder. 
Boston, May 73,1854. 
Dr. Dadd, — My Dear Sir :— I am greatly obliged to you 
for tbe valuable ueatise, the restilfsof your own investi¬ 
gations, which you have recently issued, hoping that it 
may meet with the patronage of a discriminating commu¬ 
nity. 
I remain yours with great regard, 
_Marshall P. Wilder. 
The Modern Horse Doctor, by G. H. Dadd, is a manual 
of genuine S' i nee, and ought to be owned and stu< ii d on 
the score of Humanity, as well as interest, by every man 
wlio owns a hoise .—Boston Congregationalist. 
Dr. Dadd Ins bad great experience in the cure of tick 
hors's and explains the SvCiet of his success in this vol. 
— TV Y Tribune. 
The author of this work is well known as a most skillful 
veterinary surge n. His book is based on the soundest 
common sense, and as a hand-book for practical use, we 
know of nothing to compare w ith it —Yankee Blade. 
We know Dr. Dadd well, snd are sttislied that he pos¬ 
sesses most important qualifications for preparing such a 
book as this —N E. Farmer. 
M'-ssrs Jewett & Co. have just published a very valua¬ 
ble woik by Dr. Dadd, a welt known veterinary surgeon, 
on the causes, nature and treatment of diseases, and iame- 
ness in horses — Farmer's Cabinet , 
This is one of the most valuable treatises on the subject, 
ever publi hed; aud no owner of that noblest of the ani¬ 
mal luce, the horse, should he without it Especially 
-liould it be in the hands of every hotel and livery -stable 
keeper. To many a man would it be wo th hundreds of 
dollars every year.— Ind. Democrat, Concord. 
By^far the most learned and copious wmk on the horse 
and his diseases we have ever seen.— N. Y. Evangelist. 
One of ihe greatest and most commendable qualities of 
1!ri* work, is, it is practical and plain to the comprehen- 
ri"n of those farraeis and others for whom it is designed. 
7 h- course of treatment favors generally a more sanative 
and rational syst“in of medication than that rtcomm n led 
in any previously existing works on farriery. No farmer 
or owner of a horse should be without tliis'bnok. Stable 
keepers, stage proprietors aid hack men, we believe would 
deri' e profit by haring nt least one copy hung up in their 
-tallies fern use and reference by their stable men .—Daily 
News Philadelphia. 
There is more common sense in this book than any of 
the kind we have ever seen, and farmers and owners of 
bo: ses would find it a matter of economy to pos*e-8 them¬ 
selves of it. It will be of more service than the counsel ot 
a score of ordinary doctors .—Albany Courier. 
We deem tiiis decidedly the best and most reliable work 
on the “ Cause, Natuie, and Treatment of Disease and 
Lameness in Horses," ever published .—Nantucket Enquirer. 
What we have read of this book induces us to regard it 
a* a very sensible and valuable woik; and we learn that 
those much more competent to judge of its value, have 
given it their unqualified approval.— Ev. Trav. Boston. 
This book supplies a great desideratum which Skinner’s 
admirable treatise on the Horse did not tiff. Every man 
may be his own veterinary surgeon, and with mm h great¬ 
er safety to this uobie animal than by trusting him to the 
treatment of the empirical inlinerants wlio infest tbe 
country. It is well illustrated, and should be purchased 
by every man who owns a horse.— Ev. Mirror, New York 
This is a book that should be forthwith put into the 
hands of all who own or drive horses, whether for the 
dray or gig, for the plow, omnil us.or rind for hard service 
or plea-tire —McMakins Courier, Philadelphia. 
A good clearly written book, which snould be in the 
hand* of every man who Ins a horse whose ills his affec¬ 
tum or tiis purse make it worth while to cur e.—Bangor 
Mercury. 
This is a scientific, thorough and complete treatise upon 
the diseases to which one of the noble-t of animals is sub¬ 
ject and tiie remedies which they severally require .—Troy 
Daily Budget. 
It-is s valuable book to those who have the care of Hor¬ 
ses —Harlftrrd Herald. 
He is not worthy to have a horse in his care, who will 
not use such a work to qualify himself for his duties to 
this animal .—Commonwealth Boston.
