woolen factory’ at Windsorville (Ketch Mills) 
stops works this week. It is said that the woolen 
works at Broad Brook contemplate a similar 
course. The condition of the market for the 
last six months has been unfavorable to the 
woolen manufacturers, and the new tariff enacted 
for their especial benefit, fails to give confi¬ 
dence. In Rhode Island the woolen mills have 
largely curtailed their business, and some have 
shut up shop.”

A KEW QUARTER OF THE RURAL 
Began April 6 ,— a good time for new clubs or addi¬ 
tions to old ones to commence, though we can still 
famish back numbers from Jan., or subscriptions 
may date from Feb. or March 1st. March is a good 
month In which to fill up Premium Clubs already 
begun, and also to form new ones. There are hun¬ 
dreds of localities in which clubs may yet be organ¬ 
ized and Rewards of Merit eeeured. Our former Pre¬

(see part in Rural of fltb, and full list ki Supplement.) 
Mexico and Sontli America. 
Vera Cruz is still closely besieged by 7,000 
Liberals, and all intercourse cut off, so that 
starvation seems imminent. 
The capture of Puebla by the Liberals jg 
confirmed. 
Maximilian is still in Queretaro with 14,000 
troops, closely watched by 32,000 Liberals, The 
Imperial General Marquez managed to get •ut

8000,000 from wealthy men there, by putting 
them in prison, and then left for Queretaro with 
400 men. At Puebla he was defeated hi a fight. 
The Imperialists hold but a part of Queretaro, 
and are hard pressed.

The London Stock Exchange is disturbed 
by warlike aspects on the continent. 
Prussia refuses the compromise proposed by 
the neutral power* of Europe; the official press 
at Berlin the 3d, saying, “This Government did 
not find it necessary to appeal to the powers for 
the protection of her rights, and she will not 
leave Luxemburg.” 
The Comtilutienyd (French official) says France 
does not wish war, and will use all means con¬ 
sistent with national honor to avoid it. Mean¬ 
while both sides are arming with great vigor. 
It is said Napoleon will send to this country 
for arms. . 
A monitor for the Russian navy is to be built 
in New York. 
The Paris journals 6ay there will be no war on 
the Luxemburg question. 
It is said Bismarck wishes peace, but Count 
Moltke wants war, for which Prussia is well 
prepared. 
The Water Gazelle (Berlin) intimates that 
Prussia may evacuate Luxemburg, and the 
Dutch Government officially denies any offer to 
sell that place to Napoleon. 
Queen Victoria has sent a letter to the King 
of Prussia urging some settlement, and Napo¬

arrangement.

Rochester, April 30,1S67. | 
The money market is easy just now at the great com¬ 
mercial points cast, and there t« also an Improvement at 
the wee. In New York capital is abundant, and tempo¬ 
rary loans are easily obtained on acceptable collaterals 
at5®6 per cent., and occasionally large sums are loaned 
on Government securities at 4 percent. The best com¬ 
mercial paper sells at OJif-yDf per cent, per annum. Gov¬ 
ernment bonds have been in demand during the week. 
Gold is lower, notwithstanding the rumors of trouble 
abroad. The near approach of the May dividend on the 
5-20s has had an influence on the market. To morrow 
(Wednesday, May 1 st,) about ?.''>.000,000 in gold will be 
disbursed on account of Interest. Gold told in New 
York yesterday at 1351,. The amount shipped from New 
York last week was 1752,828. 
The general business of the country has hardly im¬ 
proved as much as wns anticipated a week or ten days 
since. The Journal of Commerce, speaking of the Dry 
Goods trade, »sys:—'• Buyers cannot be tempted Into 
large purchases ut any price ; the promise for an in¬ 
crease in activity 1 * not very encouraging, and many 
are expediting a long interval of Inaction, with a heavy 
market." 
Wool.—T he Journal of Commerce of Saturday notices 
thus: 
The market presents no new feature. The auction 
sale, though small, attracted a goodiy number of manu¬ 
facturers, many thinking that a forced saiu would de¬ 
termine tin: price to a considerable degree. After the 
sale (which consisted of only h part of the wool adver¬ 
tised! tho buyers went about tin: market and picked up 
dlffereut small lots at about the, prices which were cur¬ 
rent last week, aUhonuh in some Instances concessions 
were made. Foreign wool Is quiet, but is steadily held.

Wheat and Flout;.—T he wheat aud duor trade just 
now attracts considerable Attention. The high prices 
paid by every purchaser, nr.rurally leads him to inquire 
if there ia auy immediate prospect of a reduction. Wc 
have taken some pains to get at the (acta in regard to 
the amount of wheat In store at the various shipping 
points, also the probable amount now In the hands of 
producers, and we are unable to figure up any surplus; 
on the contrary, It is now evident the country is short 
of good wheat, aud must he until the next harvest. The 
Winona. Minn.. Republican estimates the stock of wheat 
in store in Winona, and the country tributary thereto, 
at CSu/tSo bushels, acuinst the corresponding time last 
year of 2,644,900 bushels, and says: 
Here is a decrease of wheat In Store,comparing the 
present spring With Hint a year ago of i.wuis bushels ! 
lint even these figures do not exhibit the true relative 
decrease—for last year, at the date of the onenlna or 
navigation, a very large quantity of wheat remained In 
tho hands oi formers,uml was subsequently forwarded 
to market lor exportation. Now. on the coutrury, there 
Is not enough, or certainly not more than enough, {n first 
hands to meet, the demand for home cohruiuptlou until 
next harvest. 'Ye therefore estimate tlutt. (he uiiuntltv 
of wheat now in Minnesota, held for fxnort is fmiii 
8,600,000 to 1 , 000,000 bushels less than it was at tite corre¬ 
sponding period u! last. year. 
The telegraph report on Saturday staled that 40,000 
bushels of California wheat had been shipped from Liv¬ 
erpool to New York. This announcement has attracted 
considerable attention, it Is evident the sharpest oper¬ 
ators arc convinced there Is a short supply of wheat in 
the country, or a largo amount would uot be ordered 
Rom England.

in California. To-day there are twelve dailies, 
one tri-weekly and forty-one weeklies in San 
Francisco alone. In the remainder of the State 
there are twelve dailies, one tri-weckly aud 
seventy-three weeklies. Californians arc a read¬ 
ing people, aud the State press is quite up to the 
average of our best papers.
