Rochester, Dec. 4, 1850. J 
Since our last we note a slight advance in wheat, 
best qualities of which bring 1,02. There is but 
little exposed for sale in the street, owing, doubt¬ 
less, to the state of the roads. 
Owing to the sudden rise of the river, the mills 
have been doing little or nothing. 
Wc hear of sales of 3,500 bushels Valley wheat 
at 1,02; and 2,700 Mich. at96ic. 
Barley remains the same as previously quoted. 
Butter, best quality brings 15 cents.

TRUSTEES: 
THIS Journal htis already attained a circula¬ 
tion of several thousand, and acquired a high re¬ 
putation. As an Agricultural and Family Paper it 
has no superior in the Nation. The extensive 
patronage and commendation accorded to the 
work, abundantly sustain this assertion, and fur¬ 
nish tho best evidence of its great value and 
popularity — for no journal, however cheap or at¬ 
tractive, could attain such a subscription and 
standing, in so brief a period, without possessing 
more than ordinary merit. 
The second volume will commence on the first 
of January, 1851. Relying mainly upon the 
merits and reputation of the paper for support, the 
Conductor deems it unnecessary to accompany 
this announcement with any extravagant language 
or pompous pledges. Still he may be permitted to 
remark that the facilities at his command are such 
as .to warrant him in believing and asserting that 
the coming volume of the Rural New-Yorker 
! will bo superior to its predecessor in most respects 
— and that he is determined to spare neither labor 
nor expense to render it far more valuable. 
As heretofore, and as its title indicates, the Ru¬ 
ral New-Yorker will continue to be mainly de¬ 
voted to Agriculture and Horticulture and their 
kindred Arts and Sciences—its chief object, end 
and aim being the promotion of the best interests 
of the Rural Population of the Country. But 
while this is its most prominent feature, important 
subjects interesting to other classes receive proper 
attention. Its various Departments — embracing 
Agriculture, Horticulture, Mechanic Arts and 
Science, Education, Literature, General Intelli¬ 
gence, Reports of the Crops and Markets, &c., &c. 
— are conducted by gentlemen of experience and 
ability, assisted by a large number of talented Cor¬ 
respondents. Avoiding the trash put forth in too 
many of the so-called family-journals of the day, 
our constant aim is to furnish such a work as shall 
prove eminently valuable and interesting, and thus 
Improve tho Mind, without vitiating the Taste or 
corrupting the Heart — one which will bo sought 
and valued for the Usefulness, Variety, Purity 
and Excellence of its Contents. 
The Illustrations of the second volume will 
be superior to those already given. We intend 
to give 
OVER 200 ENGRAVINGS! 
Comprising many beautiful and costly illustrations, 
from original designs — thus appropriately embel¬ 
lishing the principal departments of the work.— 
Particular attention will be devoted to Rural 
Architecture, and the plans we shall give will 
probably be worth ten times tho price of the paper 
to many subscribers. 
We shall also present a series of Portraits of dis¬ 
tinguished Statesmen, Inventors, Divines, Heroes, 
&c. Our design is to give in the next volume at 
least 
26 DOUBLE COLUMN PORTRAITS, 
executed in the best style of the gravers art, ac- 
_companied with biographical sketches, &c. 
The leading Departments of tho New-Yorker 
— Agriculture, Horticulture, Literature, News, tho 
Markets, &c.,— will receive additional attention. 
As the paper is designed to benefit the Producing 
Classes, its pages will avoid or condemn humbug 
in whatever guize it may appear — from wooly 
horses down to Chittagong fowls and patent milkers 
The second volume will contain a Series of 
Letters on 
European Agriculture and Raral Affairs, 
by an American gentleman — the author of seve¬ 
ral works oil Agriculture and other subjects—who 
will leave for the Old World during the present 
month. He will visit England, France, Belgium 
—and probably Scotland, Ilolland and Prussia — 
and furnish results of his observations in the Rural 
Districts of those Countries. Our correspondent 
will also attend the 
WORLD’S INDUSTRIAL FAIR ! 
to be held at London, in May next, and take notes 
of the exhibition. 
In appearance — correctness of execution and 
beauty of print and illustrations — the New-York¬ 
er will continue to be a model sheet, and probably 
a little ahead of successful imitation. 
Each number of the New-Yorker contains 
EIGHT LARGE QUARTO PAGES, (of flVO ColumnS 
each,) with Index, &c., at the close of each vol¬ 
ume— rendering it convenient for preservation and 
binding. It is published every Thursday, and 
mailed so as to reach all it subscribers on the prin¬ 
cipal mail routes in this State on that day.

riders, residents of Rochester nor city booksellers

prizes to persons here excluded.] 
For Terms and other particulars see Prospectus 
on opposite page of this slip. 
The undersigned was the first agricultural pub¬ 
lisher who offered premiums iu this manner—and 
the same course having since been adopted and 
continued by many of his cotemporaries, is con¬ 
clusive evidence of its utility in compensating to 
some e.xtent the friends of agricultural publications 
for their generous and valuable assistance. And, 
without claiming any patent-right, he will endeavor 
to keep in advance of all others, by offering the 
most liberal and valuable premiums. After perus¬ 
ing the above, and considering the limited age and 
circulation of the New-Yorker in comparison with 
the long established monthly agricultural papers, 
those interested will see at a glance that our propo¬ 
sition is decidedly the most liberal yet offered. 
Specimen numbers. Prospectuses, &c., 
furnished free to all competitors or others who may 
be disposed to lend their kind offices in behalf of 
the Rural New-Yorker.
