A fearful stampede of cattle occurred at the 
depot of the Graud Trunk Railway, at Fort Erie 
a few days since. It is supposed that the ani¬ 
mals had become desperate from their long ride, 
thirst and close eontinement this hot weather, 
and at sight of the river, made a ruah for the 
water. Eighteen got away, of which number 
not one was rescued alive. Eleven wore drown¬ 
ed and the other seven are missing. 
Late in the past month there was made an au¬ 
thoritative announcement of the successful 
landing of another expedition in Cuba in aid of 
the pat riots. The expedition was not very large, 
hut it will be of essential service to the Cuban 
army. It. consisted of quantities of arms, mu¬ 
nitions and clothing. This expedition is only a 
part of an organized movement from which the 
most important results are anticipated. It will 
he followed by others that will enable the Cuban 
army to take the aggressive. 
The Montreal correspondent of the Glohe says: 
“Agentleman who arrived lately from France, 
took an office in St. James street, and has, within 
the last few days, been actively recruiting for 
the French army. The recruits have their pas¬ 
sage paid to Europe, where thoy are promised a 
bounty. Most ol’ the reeruila, so tar, have been 
Irishmen. The recruiting officer seems to have 
means, as he opened credit with one of the banks 
to the amount of $50,000." 
More than 600 Germans have handed their 
names to Consul CJausenius, of the North Ger¬ 
man Confederation at Chicago, signifying their 
wish to be sent to Germany to join the army. 
The citizens and inhabitants of Vineland, N. J., 
will celebrate the ninth anniversary of the set¬

if not of the United States. 
The Pennsylvania Sugar Refinery, of Newhall. 
Boric & Co., was destroyed by tire on the 28th 
ult.» and the loss is estimated at $500,000. The 
refinery was seven stories high, filled with val¬ 
uable machinery and a large stock of refined su¬ 
gars. During t lie tire, the rear wall fell on the 
adjoining building, crushing it and carrying 
down nine firemen, all of whom are believed to 
be killed. All the surrounding buildings am 
much damaged. The roof of the leather store 
of J. F. Hulzmnn, two blocks off, caught fire 
from sparks, and was burned off. The large 
factory of Messrs. Miskey, Merrill & Shnckard, 
and the glass house of Messrs. Whitai & 1 1 >„ ad¬ 
joining the sugar house, wore on tiro, but were 
saved. 
From Sail Domingo news reaches us that Baer, 
is arming 200 Haytiens, who took refuge there 
during the late struggle on the frontier, for the 
purpose ol'making a raid on the Haytiou fron¬ 
tier. Wo also hear from CUrfteoa that several 
refugees there are doing th© like with the same 
object. They say It Is In the interest, of the ex- 
Mblister to Paris, Salomon, who is friendly to 
Baez. If, however, any such attempt, is made, 
the Government will bo prepared to oppose it. 
The Secretary of War lias been authorized to

non euptiu’od in Mexico. The cost of i he statue 
will nob exceed $35,000, and Is to be placed in 
Franklin Square, Ju Washington. 
The refusal of the Spanish Cortes to abolish 
slavery In the colonics of Cuba and Porto Rico 
has been condemned as an act of imbecility. It 
appear-, from I ho abstract, of the correspondence 
between Minister Sickles and Secretary Fish 
that the failure resulted from the treachery of 
Prim, who, al ter committing the Government 
to abolition, compromised wit h the slaveholders 
of Poi’to ltioo on an act of einanolpatiou \yhioli 
defers the question until the next century. 
Lady Franklin, in deference to the general de¬ 
sires of the citizens of Cincinnati, held a recep¬

Information has been received from South 
Pass that the soldiers who wore sent by the 
Government after the Big Horn expedition,

Tho United States Sub-Treasury in Pliiladel 
Phla was delrauded of a large amount of money 
by an adroit thief, in the following man non 
Persons wishing coupons cashed hike them to 
the third floor in the rear of tho Custom-house 
and receive gold checks, which they tulco to tho 
lower floor and get cashed. Twice on Saturday 
Parties got gold checks for small amounts, step¬ 
ped outside of the building, altered the figures 
from small amounts to large ones, walked up to 
the counter on tho lower Moor and received the 
gold and departed. The fraud was afterward 
discovered, and on the third attempt being made 
the individual was arrested. He is unknown 
here, and appears to be an Englishman. The 
loss tnay amount to $12,000 or $15,000. 
Tho State of New Mexico promises to be the 
thirty-eighth of the Union. It lias 124,500 square 
miles ol territory, and by the last census, 03,516 
people, of whom 10,527 were Indians. Nebraska, 
now the youngest of the States, was admitted in 
February, 1807, with a population of 3o,0(J0. The 
mineral attractions of the territory are im¬ 
portant. The Spaniards explored Now Mexico 
in 1537, and much ol’ their gold and silver wits 
obtained there. Yet the mineral resources of 
Now Mexico have never been fairly developed. 
Gold, silver, iron, lead, copper, coal, zinc and 
salt are found, and eminent geologists predict 
that, ultimately, the territory will bo onu of the 
richest of the mining States. The territory is 
now reached via the Kansas Pacific Road. The 
land routes, through Texas and Mexico are 
tedious. The proposed Southern Pacific Road, 
from San Diego, will run along the line.

LUCIUS A. CHASE, ‘245 Brondwny, N. V. 
This Justly celebrated llock was selected trom Hie 
flock* of tiie most noted brmlern In England, by John 
l>. Wing. Esq., of Washington Hollow, N. Y., who 
gave personal attention to Its collection, with refer¬ 
ence to the best wool-produoltig and mutton quali¬ 
ties. It Is pronounced by competent Judges to he the 
finest tioek tn A morion; and the present lender, 
"Champiirn of England,” und some of the ewes, arc 
believed to he equal to any that cun he shown in any 
country. 
The wool Is long, tlno and lustrous, yielding from 
eight to twenty pounds per head. They arc full and 
square-bodlcd. very strong In the loins, and weigh 
from 200 to 300 pounds at maturity- sometimes ex - 
feeding even tills weight. They are hardy anil 
vigorous, and for breeding pure or crossing with 
other breeds, are believed to promise more profit 
than any other sheep. The wool Is tn good demand 
ftt remunerative prices, and tho thorough-bred rams 
crossed with any other sheep, even Marinos, will 
produce a good combing wool, and lambs of such 
size as will bring a large prico early In the season in 
market. 
Every sheep at present in the ** Maple Shade Flock” 
was either imported or bred direct from imported 
sire and dam, and has a perfect pedigree. 
This flock took the first prizes In tho long wool 
classes at the New York State and Dutehoss Co. 
Fairs, In 1867 and 1869. 
It will be the aim of the present proprietor to sus¬ 
tain the reputation of the " Maple Shade Flock," und, 
If possible, add to it: also to show the good results 
ol' different crosses with other sheep. 
Having purchased of Mr. Wing Ills 
Entire Flock of Imported Slieep,

THE COUNTRY CHEESE MARKET. 
Addition* to C'lubs are always In order, whether 
In ones, twos, fives, tens, or any other number. A 
host of people are dropping other papers about those 
days, and our Agent-Friends should improve every 
occasion to secure such as recruits for the RURAL. 
ov account, of the exceedingly hot weather, the 
delivery of cheese at tho Little Falls Cheese Market, 
for the week ending July 80th, was not up to the av¬ 
erage quantity, only amounting t.i 1,080 boxes. As 
there was more wanted for tho Philadelphia market, 
the sales were not very brisk, though the quality was 
usually good. The best lot* brought from ).' to Mo., 
while the Inferior grades sold at llitollo. Dairymen 
are still looking for a rise tn the price of cheese, 
though buyers do not encourage the Men. There 
was the Usual number of factories represented, and 
as there has been quite an accumulation of choose 
in some of the factories, In some instances as many 
us between 700 and boxes - the offerings were 
large. 
About 4,U60 boxes chanced hands, of which we are 
able to report the following sales:— dullsville, lie.;

we have hml some timely showers which have fresh¬ 
ened up pastures considerably and given u start to

How to Help the Rural.— There arc numerous

Kit UAL, and wo will mail them Specimens, etc. 
Ill a better position for holders. The short supply 
abroad leads the trade to expect an outlet In tills de¬ 
scription, especially with a war in progress. The dry
