THE first number of the AMbKltA FAR »iER, was issued on the id of April, 1819.

It takes no concern or interest in party politics, nor iuthe transient occurrences ot the day. The Farmer is published weekly, on a sheet the size of a large newspaper, ami folded o as to make eight pages—and to ad mit of being conveniently bound up and preserved in volumes. Each volume will consist of fifty-two numbers, a title page and an index ; and numerous Engravings to re present new implements, and approved sys tems of husbandry. Each number gives a true and accurate statement of the then selling priceso| coun try produce, live stock and all the principa articles brought tor sale in the Baltimore market. . ,, I erms ot subscription •* aoiiais num, to be paid in advance. But tor the sum of five dollars, the actual receiptot eve ry number is guaranteed. 1 hat, is, when numbers fail to come to hand, duplicates shall be sent until every number shall.have been received. f As the Editor takes (lie risk and cost ol the mail—should subscription money mis carry, he holds himself, nevertheless, boun to furnish the paper. . . To those who may think the price ot sub scription too high, it may be remarked, that on a comparison ot their actual contents, one volume of tne American Farmer, will be found to contain as much as lour volumes ot the ‘ Memoirs of the Agricultural Society of Philadelphia and the four volumes of that patriotic, and exceedingly valuable work, sell for 12 dollars. To shew that the American Farmer, is conducted in a manner to answer the great national purpose for which it was establish ed. and that it is not un leserving the encou ragement of the Agriculturists .ot the lTnit d Spates, the following testimonials are respect ful! v submitted—others equall}’ conclusive, might be offered.

It is particular ly adapted for being moved and comprised in a space uf nail comparative bulk. The manneroi giving the impression is entirely 0 riginal.and different rum other presses, cal culated to save the iype. The lorm is uni formly stationary, and the platten passes o ver by means ot rolleis, and a channel or tail ways, until brought parallel with the form, it rests, and the impression is given with ease, and in hi instant, by turning the rounce or handle with the left hand, exactly corresponding with the running in ol the car riage and form of the old press. 'I he twe surfaces being ot iron, and true to the great est perfection, bad work cannot be done on tnem, when the press is once adjusted, the pull regulated, and. the beating attended to. The smallest cards may lie printed on them without bearers or mackling—they may al so be us“d, when the form is off, for taking copies from manuscripts, seals, coins. <$*c— They require no levelling or fixing, and tin Press, ota large royal size, occupies only a space of forty inches square. Each Press will be accompanied with a copperplate engraving, and printed direc tions. He will only add, that it is his determina tion to make them as complete and cheap a possible,and is now selling them as low a> they are sold in Great Britain, with some improvements, and at least not interior in workmanship.

ADAM RAMAGE. Philadelphia, Wov. 24, 18(8. Mr. A. Rama . Dear Sir—I consider the Ruthven Press as a very valuable improvement ; and think the trade generally, are under great obliga tions to you tor your zeal and perseverance, Hi naturalizing so useful an invention. The Press combines a vast accession ol power, with a considerable dimunition of la bor to the workmen ; and so far as relates 10 the one you manufactured for me, I can safely say, that it is impossible tor any press to produce a more equable impression. The rdatten and bed for the form being both ot cast iron, 1 fully expect that this most essen tial quality will be permanent. frith hearty wishes for that success to youi manufactory, which it so well deserves, I am sir, your obedient servant THUS. H. PALMER. Philadelphia, A'ov. 24, 1818. We, the subscribers, having had the Ruth ven Press in operation for some time past, are ofopiijion, that it is equal in every re spect to any Press now in use. Its peculiar merits consist, in th* form remaining station ary—the mode of giving the impression, and the ease and facility with which the necessa ry power is applied by the woikmtn. fit hesitate not to declare ourentire satisfaction with the press, and that we look upon fht preference given it, by the different work men engaged, as conclusive testimony in its lavor.

Dear Sir—I have for tome time past been threatening to write to you. to let you know how well I am pleased with the Ruthven Press, improved and made by you ; but a variety of circumstances have prevented it. I have had it in constant operation three months : during which time nearly all the printers of this city, and a number of our mo«t ingeniou- mechanics, have called to ex amine it. They have pronounced it as com plete in every respect, as any machinery they have ever seen. The following is the idea I have of it. No Printing Press has everbeen construct ed, on which more or better work can be done in a given time. The exertionof working it is no more than healthy exercise for a boy of lo years of age.
