Another Valuable Feature. 
In order to keep pace with its increased and 
i increasing subscription and prosperity, we are 
this year expending considerable more than 
ever before upon the Contents and Style of the 
Rural Kew-Yorker. The improvements in¬ 
stituted since the close of last volume, have 
elicited special commendation from discrimi¬ 
nating subscribers and influential journals all 
over the land,—while tbe rapid increase of its 
circulation among tbe best classes of communi¬ 
ty, demonstrates that our efforts and expendi¬ 
tures are widely and substantially appreciated. 
The augmented favor and support the paper is 
thus receiving is not only most gratifying, but 
warrants us in expending even more than we 
had anticipated in its publication. We have 
therefore just made such arrangements as wilt
