E3?~ Our Club Terms.— It is not our practice nor purpose 
to publish one price for a certain number of copies of the 
Rural, and receive another and less rate. Such a course 
would be unjust to those who pay according to terms, if not 
dishonorable, and soon involvo us in difficulty. Hence, we 
have to-day (Dec. 27.) returned several remittances, because 
our terms were not complied with, and must do so in similar 
cases. We cannot and will not furnish single copies of the 
Rural at the lowest club rate, (except when sent to a distant 
friend as a present,) and it is useless to ask us; nor will we 
send 10 or 15 copies at the same rate as for 30,50 or 100. Our 
club rates are already lower than they ought to be —and 
much less than those of similar journals —and we think all 
fair, discriminating persons, will see the propriety of our 
adhering to them stricHy. 
S5?“Your Autographs.— In writing business letters, or 
indeed any kind, don’t “forget to remember” that your 
name is necessary to complete the document. We not unfre- 
quentiy receive money letters with the name of the writer 
omitted, and in some instances get severely “ talked to” for 
not sending the paper promptly. We recently received a 
remittance of $55 from a club-agent who omitted a very im¬ 
portant item —his autograph. Please give us names, post- 
office addresses, &c„ in all cases, and write them plainly. 
S2T" Tm? Rural is published strictly upon the cash 
system —copies are never mailed to individual subscribers 
until paid fer, (or ordered by a responsible agent,) and 
always discontinued when the subscription term expires. 
53^” Drafts at our Risk.— We lose little money by mail, 
but prefer Drafts on New York (less exchange,) payable to 
our order, and whioh may be sent at our risk if carefully 
mailed to D. D. T. Moore, Rochester, N. Y. 
Foe other Notices see last page. 
Thanks to the Press.— Our acknowledgments are emi¬ 
nently due and gratefully tendered for the highly compli¬ 
mentary notices of the Rural which have recently appeared 
in hundreds of our exchanges throughout the United States, 
Canadas, Ac. As our brethren of the Press are the bast 
judges of the cost of “getting up” and actual vai.uh of a 
newspaper, their kind opinions, voluntarily expressed, are 
most gratifying and encouraging, and stimulate us to still 
greater efforts. Indeed, we think they will discover in the 
appearance of our new volume that we have “ turned over 
a new leaf,” and if as appreciative as heretofore have no 
doubt they will “ make a note of it.” They should remem¬ 
ber, however, that a new paper dress and fixtures, like 
human attire, is always stiff and awkward when first put on, 
and won’t appear to advantage the first week or two, and 
make allowances accordingly. It’s no light task to don such 
a spick-span suit as ours, and make everything shine and 
“work well.” 
— To the People, also, we are greatly indebted for the 
numerous highly complimentary and substantially-lined 
epistles we are daily receiving. They are striking us from 
all quarters with huge clubs—which have grown amazingly 
, since last year—but we will not only endeavor to endure it, 
but feel bound to return the sincerest thanks of an apprecia- 
' ting heart for the castigation.
