MOORE’S RURAL NEW-YORKER: AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER 
made twelve years ago, says that many of the new 
houses remind him of the houses at New Y r ork.— 
Only think of the holy city being rebuilt after such 
a model us New York. 
The winter in Europe has so far been very cold. 
Vast quantities of snow have fallen in Austria.— 
On the first of December the roads cast of Vienna 
were impassable on account of the snow, and in 
Vicuna such vast masses of snow had accumulated 
in the streets that all locomotion was greatly im¬ 
peded. In England they had skating in the early 
part of December. 
THE WOOL MARKETS. 
New York Wool Market—Stock ok Hard.— Messrs. Tell- 
komp A Hitching, of New York, in their circular of the 1st Inst, 
furnish the following Information with reference to wool: 
I’oring ihe early part of »bo month of December, we had an 
Retire demand for native tleeeo. and large quantities changed 
hands lor consumption at toll i ate* ; hut since then, or for the 
past fortnight, the market has been more Quiet, and prices have 
remained unchanged There lias also been a good demand for 
all desirable kind* of polled wool, of which the market now of¬ 
fers a little better selection We give below the stock of native 
and foreign wool in our market at the dose or the last month, ns 
near as we contd ascertain It There is a very moderate stock 
of native wool, held lo Philadelphia Boston, Providence, Troy, 
and other cities ; and as there is none of Importance in the inte¬ 
rior to com > forward, there will be. no doubt, a short supply be¬ 
fore the next dip, Fine foreign wool ha* been in fair demand, 
the Htock of it has become reduced, amt we soon expect to see 
the market cleared at both <'ape sml Australian wools. There 
are not enough of low foreign wools In our market to allow oT 
any large opciations. Tile demand has contlnncd good at foil 
rates. The late arrivals of South American wool were eagerly 
sought for, and some of the lot* sold before being landed. The 
late Imndon auction fates dosed with an advance above the pre¬ 
vious sales Id to Vd V lb-

Toe disasters to sea going vessels during the 
last month, include 64 vessels of all classes, the 
value of which is estimated to be $667,606, and the 
cargoes are estimated to be worth a million more. 
Among the statistical fucts elucidated by the 
sugar discussion, is the statement that every man, 
woman and child in the Union consumes on an av¬ 
erage 29 pounds of sugar a year. 
The small pox is prevailing to an alarming ex¬ 
tent in Stowe, Vt., and all public gatherings are 
forbidden, aad the schools are stopped; pest 
houses have been provided, and the Congregation¬ 
al clergyman has gone to one of them to devote 
his services to the sick. 
The Government is officially advised that Mr. 
Villiers, brother of Lord Clarendon, has been ap¬ 
pointed British Minister to the United States, and 
that he will shortly arrive in this country—per¬ 
haps in the Retribution. 
Dobing the quarter which closed last Wednes- 
itay, the openers of dead letters in the general post 
office at Washington, found 1,900 which contained 
money. The aggregate amoui tis $11,27a. Seven- 
eighths of this money has been restored to its 
owners. 
Gov. Fletcher, of Vermont, has sent three 
Commissioners to Kansas to ascertain the condi¬ 
tion of the people, with a view to the aid voted by 
the Legislature. 
A newspaper has been commenced in Egypt, 
intended for Syrian circulation. It bears the 
nameof Mirat ul-Abval, or 1 Mirror of the People,” 
and is issued weekly. The editor is Mr. Churchill 
an Englishman, assisted by a native well read in 
Arabic literature. 
The only surviving nephew of the illustrious 
patriot, Mad Anthony Wayne, is now residingnear 
Philadelphia. He is likewise the only one left of 
PREMIUM LIST.—1857, 
Arrival of the North American, 
The steamer North American arrived at Port¬ 
land, on the Bth inst., with Liverpool dates to the 
24th ult., inclusive. 
Nothing certain is known respecting the meet¬ 
ing of the Paris Conference. 
An account contradictory, at Vienna, states that 
an official notification has been made that France 
cannot accept the interposition of the Belgrade 
and Isle of Serpents question. 
In the absence of the interpretation by England, 
Aust ria and Turkey, Count Buol had sent this un¬ 
expected announcement to the Emperor iu Italy. 
The London Globe, the Government organ, do- 
nits that there is any difficulty between France 
and England. The diplomatic relations are sus¬ 
pended between Switzerland arid Prussia, and mat¬ 
ters are becoming exceedingly complicated. 
No reply had been received to the note ad¬ 
dressed by Prussia to the Great Powers on the 
Nenfcbatel affairs. In the meantime Prussia per¬ 
sists in forcible measures, and lias notified the 
German Diet that her own t roops are sufficient for 
any emergency, and 35,000 troops will assemble at 
Berlin by January, to march under Gen. Oriel Bon- 
groken, upon Switzerland. The latter power is 
behaving with great gallantry. 
The population is called to arms, and respond 
witii enthusiasm. 
Twenty thousand will be armed immediately, of 
which 10,000 will be under Gen. Bourgoiee, and 
will defend Basle, and the remainder uuder Gen. 
ZeiegliT will garrison at Chathausen. The van 
reaervi'jwill operate in the field. Unlimited credits 
and influential friends of Mookk’s Rural Nsw-Yokicer, 
and the cause of “ Progress and Improvement,” who are 
disposed to lend their kind offices in its heh&If—thus en¬ 
hancing their individual interests while promoting the 
welfare of community—are respectfully invited to examine

Provincial Items 
A melancholy accident happened on the Big 
Plains, Caradoc, 0. W., on Friday last. A son of 
James Carroll, J. P„ of about nineteen years of 
age, while in the act of yoking up a pair of steers, 
was hooked in the nose by one of them, the horn 
passing upwards, causing a fracture of the frontal 
bone, from which death ensued. 
Official notice is given in the Canada papers 
that an application will be made at the coming 
session of the Canadian Parliament for a charter 
to construct a bridge across the Niagara river at 
Fort Erie, or some point below, and for other pur¬ 
poses. 
A man named William Thompson, a sawyer, met 
his death, last week, in a most shocking manner, 
at Messrs. Sudworth’s Mills, Sweaburgh, West Ox¬ 
ford, being nearly cut in two by a circular saw. 
A collision occurred on the 8th inst., on the 
Great Western Railway, about three miles west of 
Hamilton, by which three men were killed and a 
number of others dangeronslj wounded. Itseems

ket* in lh« West. The last Cincinnati Price Current show* that, 
the receipt* nf hoga In that city, ap to that date, are 183X73, 
agalrm 'Ffl.Wi last year. 
Th* Louisville Journal remark* a very large faffing off both 
in number and weight. It nay*:—Already more than onc-haif 
of the number of hog* which will be killed here have been re¬ 
ceived Last year 333,101 head were slaughtered around the 
Falls, and till* rear, from present appearance*, It wiU hardly 
reach 2tn,WJ—showing A defleit in numbers of '.'3,(01, and tho 
falling off in weight will increase Ibis deficit at least gti.iMHi.— 
At other packing paint* » similar falling off i* calculated on. 
Owing to this tho market ha* been very Arm, and prices have 
gradually advanced 
The Indianapolis Journal and Madison Courier report a very 
large falling off in both cities If their estimate* be correct, 
and they give the figures for them, the aggregate deficit in the 
number nf bog* slaughtered this season at and near Louis¬ 
ville. Indianapolis and Madison, will rather exceed than fall be¬ 
low 1»VMA). 
Thi* fact, a* it is now certainly established, will hare a ten¬ 
dency to fonfinn price* »t the recent advance. But we do not 
advise farmers to hold off for belter print*, for, it must be re¬ 
membered. there is still a large surplus of last year's stock oS 
bogs and bacon yotin the hands ol dealers. 
PorkTril-k or CiNi ipiVATL—The packing season is shout 
cloned at Cincinnati. The number of bogs slaughtered is 328.- 
835 against 355,265 tho previous year. 
Durnlas until the freight should arrive. The mes¬ 
sage was received, but through a negligence in 
some quarter, it wna not delivered, and the conse¬ 
quence was a collision between the. two trains at. 
the sharp curve near the Dondas canal, aud on an 
embankment of some sixty feet or more. The 
baggage car was thrown directly upon the loco¬ 
motive of the passenger train, and the wood in the 
tender of the freight engine thrown forward upon 
the engineer and flremanof the latter. An Express 
Messenger and one of the Tank men on that section 
of ihe road, were instantly killed, and one of the 
engineers survived but a few minutes. .Several 
other attaches of the road were seriously injured, 
but none of the passengers, we are glad to learn, 
were hurt. That the trains should meet on a high 
embankment, while under high speed, and not 
throw any of the cars off, seems remarkable, and a 
providential escape from general slaughter. 
I.v order to reward evert person who may aid in extending 
the circulation of the Rural New-Yorker, we offer to all 
imdudhifl competitors for the Large Cash Premiums enumerated abote.) 
the following libera]

Important Decision.— Tlie Court of Appeals 
(3d Kernan's Reports 42) have lately decided an 
interesting case in relation to domestic animals 
getting on railroad tracks from highways, and 
being killed by locomotives. 
Tiie case decides in effect that a railroad corpo¬ 
ration, which omits to comply with the statute in 
respect to maintaining fences and cattle guards, is 
liable to the owner of animals which may stray 
upou tin- track from a highway crossing it, ami 
are there injured by the engines of the company, 
although they Were not lawfully in such highway! 
This decision is directly in the teeth of a decis¬ 
ion made by the Supreme Court of the 5th district, 
in January. 1854, iD the case of "Burch agt. the 
New York Central Railroad .’’—Utica Observer. 
Arrival of the Steamship Asia. 
The Asia, from Liverpool 27th ult., arrived at 
New York on the 12th inst. 
The approaching conterence at Paris, the affairs 
of Russia and Switzerland, and the difficulty be- 
twee.u Persia ami Britain, continue the main fea¬ 
tures of interest. 
No day is yet fixed for the reassembling of the 
Paris Congress. As already intimated, the second 
plenipotentiaries will alone take part in it. Wa- 
lewaki will preside. There Is still some prelimi¬ 
nary business to get through, lint it is anticipated 
that the day of meeting is not far distant A 
preliminary meeting will probably be held in a 
'.layfl. A atatvinont made inti’. 0 T.o&doii 
linuig that Euglimd and France arc now agreed 
on tli© points of discussion with Russia. No topics 
are to bo introduced but those relating to Belgrade 
and the Isle of Serpents. Two or three sittings 
will suffice. All tile plenipotentiaries, including 
the Turkish Minister, have now received their in¬ 
structions. 
As regards tho Noufchatel question, Prussia con¬ 
tinues her propositiou for invasion and Switzer¬ 
land for defence. But there exists a belief that 
the other powers will prevent actual hostilities. 
There was even a rumor that Kngland had agreed 
to mediate in the matter, but it is doubtful. A 
large space is devoted by the continental journals 
to a discussion on the question at issue, but they 
contain little beyond surmises. 
The Bank of France again accepts for discount 
bills having seventy-five days to run from other 
parts of Europe. 
English papers contain a report of Portsmouth 
banquet to the officers of the Resolute. 
Hugh Miller, the geologist, was found shot dead 
in bis house. Hup posed accidental. 
It is stated that negotiations are broken off be¬ 
tween the British Munster at Constantinople and 
Ferouka Khun, the Persian Envoy, and the latter 
is proceeding to Paris, haviug meanwhile request¬ 
ed further instructions from his government.— 
Britain demands tho evacuation of Herat, the 
payment of expenses, dismissal of the Persian 
Prime Minister, and the establishment of British 
consulates iu various places, Persia is reported 
to have assented to return Mr. Murray. English 
minister, restore Herat, and compensate lleratians, 
but the other parts are held in abeyance.

From Mexico.— It is stated that President Com- 
monfort, in view of the fact that he ia surrounded 
with difficulties, has sought for means to secure at 
least some future for Mexico, and has proposed to 
the United States an alliance which shall strength¬ 
en his Government and bring the influence of our 
own to bear upon the reorganization of that Re¬ 
public.
