These Reprints have now been in successful opera tion in this country for tirenty year*, and their circo lation is constantly on the increase, notwithstanding the competition they encounter from American peri odieals of a similar class, and of numerous Eclectic and Magasines made up of selections from foreign pe riodieals.

Although these works are distinguished by the po litieal shades above indicated, yet but a small portioi of their contents is devoted tio political subjects. Ii is their literary character which gives them their chie value, and in that they stand confessedly far abort all other journals of their class.

Correct and valuable Market Reports. The Market* will be carefully reported, giving tho actual transactions whioh take place from week to week, in Grain, Provisions, CatUe, Ac.; thus keep ing our readers constantly and reliably advised as to their interests. During the past year, the knowledge obtained from these Market Reports alone has saved our readers thousands of dollars, by informing them of tho best time to sell or purohase, Such a Paper is demanded by the Farmtng Community. The publishers confidently believe that the agri culturists of this country are becoming too much awake to. the demands of their own calling to be longer satisfied with the slow monthly issues of a pa per professedly devoted to their interests, or to trust alone to the irreaponaible extracts in a "l'armer'a column," so popular just now in papers chiefly devo ted to business, politics, or literature; and they look for the united support of all the intelligent farmers of this country in their oontinued effort to furnish a weekly paper of a high and reliable character, which shall be progressive, and at the same time cantious and conservative in all ita teachings. Essentially an Agricultural Paper. Th? Agriculturist will not depart from ita legiti mate sphere to catch popular favor bv lumbering ap ita pagea, with the silly, fictitious literature, and light, miaoellaneoua matter of the day; it has a high er aim; and a small part only of its spaeo will be devotod to mattera not immediately pertaining to tho great business of Agriculture. The household aa well as the out-door work of the farm will receive a due share of attention. The humbuga and noatfuma afloat in the community will bo tried by reliable sci entific rales, jtnd their wortbleaanvss exposed. It ia the aim of the publishers to keep thia paper under the guidance of thoae who will make it a standard work, which shall communicate to its readers only that which is safe and reliable. An Independent JourHal. The American Agrimitvrisl stands upon ita own merits; and the truthfulness, seal, and ability, which it brings to t^e support of the interests of the farmer. It is untrammeled by any collateral buai neaa connections whatever; nor is it the organ of any clique, or the puffing machine of any man or thing. Thoroughly independent in all pointa, its ample pa ges are studiously given alone to the support and im provement of the great agricultural olaM. Editorial Department.
