MOORE’S EUEAL NEW-YOE KElt: AN AGEICULTUEAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAFEE. 
ROCHESTER, OCTOBER 14, 1854. 
The War News. 
The Canada brings important news from the 
seat of war. The Baltic fleet is to return for 
the winter without any further warlike demon¬ 
strations, and neither Sweaborg nor Cronstadt 
are to be attacked this season. This respite of 
at least eight months will not be left unim- 
proved by the Czar, and the probabilities are 
that those important fortifications, wh’"'- are 
the keys ol St. Petersl””*?- •• 111 ue so strength¬ 
ened bv 
...lumer as to render them : 
., rt oie against any force which the allies can 
bring against them. 
Even the London Times acknowledges the 
Baltic campaign to be a failure, and sings “Brit¬ 
annia Rules the Waves” out of the wrong corner 
Liability of Common Carriers. 
The New York papers say “Judge Phillips, 
of the New Y'ork Courts, has decided that it is 
not enough for the driver of an Express wagon, 
or other common carriers, to throw baggage 
carelessly on the deck, or leave it on the whart 
at the gang plank of a steamboat, but he must 
exercise prudence and care in its delivery to the 
persons authorized to receive it. A delivery <>t 
goods to the wrong person does not exonerate 
the carrier. The same Judge has also decided 
that a Railroad is not responsible for goods, the 
delivery of which is beyond their terminus.” 
All points except the last, are undoubtedly 
correct; but if the learned Judge has decided 
that as stated, he is certainly wrong, and goes 
against the ~ Hole current of legal decisions. It 
is well settled that when a common carrier re¬ 
ceives goods to be delivered at a certain place, 
he is bound to deliver them safely, whether a 
part of the route is under the control of another 
company or not; and nothing will excuse him 
except “ acts of God and the public enemy.”— 
If goods are lost after passing into the hands of

despatched under Phillip II., of Spain, for the 
conquest of England, and so famous in warlike 
annals, numbered only 137 ships of war, 20,000 
soldiers and 11,000 sailors, while this, as above 
stated, number six hundred vessels and ninety 
thousand men; more than seventy thousand of 
whom are English and French. The war ships 
of the Spanish Armada could no more compare 
with a modern built war steamer, or line-of- 
battle ship, than a Chinese junk can compare 
with a Seventy Four. Besides the enormous 
siege guns, the destructive Paixlians and bomb 
mortars, the Congreve Rockets, and other in¬

Another Richmond in the Field. —The 
Know Nothings held a Convention last week in

pendent State Ticket, with Daniel TTllman at 
its head for Governor. The history of politics 
in this State shows no parallel with the present 
division of parties, and we are not sorry to see 
the despotic chains of party discipline thorough¬ 
ly broken. Triangular political contests are 
not unfrequent; but a polygonal one with a 
dozen sides is not quite so common. Who wants 
to be the next President?
