Both WaVS Tried.

The City of OswEGo last year voted No
License, and, so far as was practicable,
closed up her grog-shops. This year, a
majority voted to license again, and one
hundred and trenty groggeries Of all sorts
are now in full blast. We are assured
that the effects on the legitimate trade of
the City are palpably disastrous. The
sellers of shoes, hats, clothes, dry goods,
provisions, &C., fud their trade seriously
diminished and their profits reduced to
zero, because the Laboring Class who last
year bought freely at their counters now
spend their diminished earnings to a sor-
rowful extent in Rum. The children who
had caps and shoes last year, and went de-
Gently to school, now skulk bareheaded
and barefoot into the groggeries with
scarcely rags enough tohide the rum bottle
which is stripping their homes Of comforts
and derrising them Of happiness. All
but the tipplers, and part even of them,
have had enough Of License, and Oswego
will in November give rousing majority
for the Maine Law.

New YORK, Aug. 19--4 P. M.-The
U. S. Mail Steamer Baltic has arrived
with Liverpool dates to August 9th, four
days later than were brought by the
America.
Flour was in good requert, but rather
heavy.
The expedition against Crimea and Sc
bastopol, had left Varna. There was moth
ing definite as to the result of the bonn
bardment of either place, although it was
ordered, and had no doubt taken place.
Great anxiety was manifested to know the
result. Bomersund was also to be attack
ed, as was generally expected.
The Russian steamer Aldiman had
made a successful sortie from the strong
fortress Of Sebastopol, and destroyed three
Turkish merchant vessels. She had also
chased the English steamer Cyclops, but
was unable to encounter her.
Two English steamers, after having
entered the Gulf Of Onogshain, near Arch
angel.
The Turkish army was advancing eau
tiously on Bucharest. The rear guard o t
the Russian forces was about half way bet
ween BucLerest and Buscoom, and on the
Sd ult., the Turkish army had not entered
Bucharest
1t was said that retrogade movements
were being made from Waldavia. 1t was
reported that, according to agreement
between the Porte and Austrian Envoy,
that the Turks are not to enter Bucharest,
and that the Turkish troops are to be with
drawn from the Danube on the arrival Of
the Austrians. Omar Pacha has promised
that Wallachia shall not be made the the
atrc Of military events.
An official dispatch from Odessa reached
Vienna late on Saturday, stating that the
French and English fleets were seen off
Scbastopol On the 30th, the steamer hav-
ing transports in tow. This news was con-
veyed from Sebastopol to Odessa in day,
and Immediately telegraphed through to
st. Petersburg.
The barricades have been taken down
at Madrid, 1t was reported that an armed
mob had forbidden Queen Christiana to
leave Madrid without payment of large
sum of money.

Rm The Times is mistaken. The Court
House bell was not rung an hour before
the time, and both division and anti-divi-
sion delegates were quietly assembled in
front of the court house for some time be-
fore they could get in. And then they
were indebted, for an entrance, to some
one from New Berlin, whose name We can
not recall, who clambered in at back
window and opened the door from the in
side. Aud the bulk of the delegates had
been quietly seated for at least five min
utes before any motion to organize was
made; the ant-di9isionists silently lock-
ing on until the motion for chairman
had been put and carried.

Prospects of the Farmers.

From Europe We have advices Of large
crops. That Of France is said to be one
fourth above the average, and those Of
England and of Germany arc reported as
abundant Our farmers cannot, therefore,
look to Europe for a market From Cali
fornia we have adyices that the home sup
ply of wheat is very large-that the noun
tain regions are raising immense numbers
of swine, cattle, and poultry-and that
fresh meats are generally as cheap in the
mines as in the agricultural valleys below.
Looking westward, our farmers see thus a
declining market; looking eastward, they
see the same (; looking homcward, they see
that they are no longer to be secure in
their own market. The recent Canadian
treaty with Great Britain adds to the
value Of Canadian produce tho whole
amount heretofore paid by Canadian far
mers into our treasury. Afortnight since
the price Of wheat at Toronto was 81 20
to 81 80, while that at Rochester was 81;
and yet five cents would pay the cost Of
transportation. The difference was the
benefit derived by the American farmer
from the fact that be had made market
at home, in which he was then protected.
The bill by which all this was accomplish
ed was carried through the House with
out being permitted even moments dis
cussion of the rights Of northern farmers.
1t was introduced on Thursday morning,
passed on Thursday morning, and was
signed by the President IN an hour and a
half from, the time at uhich ii was reported
and all this was accomplished by means
of "a skillful maneuver" on the part of
Mr.. Bayly-one of the illustrious tribe of
Virginia e-drivers, whose tobacco is
allowed by the treaty to pass free of duty.
Canada will this year have 1900, 900 Of
bushels of wheat for sale, and no European
market for it. Next year she will prob
ably have 2O,OOO,0O0, and as we have
now granted an enormous bounty on all
her agricultural products, we may reason
ably calculate that the increase from year
to year will be enormous-and that the
whole of it will seek market within the
Union.-N Y Tribune.
