UuMteftw’s Notices. 
. S37”jFALL Campaign Quarter.— Sines ofTering the 13 numbers 
of the present quarter (Oct. to J an.) on trial, at half price—only 25 
cts.—we have received over Five Thousand Trial Subscriptions, in 
clubs of from 4 to 100, from all parts of the country. As our edition 
of the first month’s numbers of the quarters is nearly exhausted, we 
cannot promise to fill orders for the complete quarter after this date.— 
but shall send the nine or ten last numbers of the volume, and make 
up the thirteen numbers by sending some issued before Oct 1st This 
is the best we can do, as the trial term must close with the year and 
volume. V~s7~ We will send the last nine or ten numbers of-this 
quarter (and three or four issued before Oct. 1st) at the rate of 5 
copies tor $1—and a few complete sets of the numbers of either the 
first, second or third quarter on the same terms. 
£3?“ The Money we Receive.— Bills on all solvent Banks in 
the U. 3. and Canada, taken at par on subscription to the Rural, 
but our agents and other friends will please remit New York, New 
England or Canada money when convenient Postage Stamps can 
be remitted for fractional parts of a dollar. For all amounts over 
$15 we prefer Drafts on either New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Al¬ 
bany, Rochester or Buffalo (less exchange,) payable to our order— 
and all such drafts may be mailed at the risk of the Publisher. If 
our friends throughout the Union, British Provinces, Ac, will comply 
with these suggestions, so far as convenient, the favor will be 
appreciated.

distant, that you think would subscribe for the Rural, or act as 
agents, please give us their addresses and we will send them speci¬

137" The Rural is published strictly upon the cash system— 
copies are never mailed to individual subscribers until paid for, (or

Atlantic, Harper's, Godey’s, Graham's, or any other $3 magazine, for

THE RURAL’S CREDENTIALS. 
Arrival of the St. Louis. 
Of the numerous highly complimentary notices 
of the Rural New-Yorker which have appeared 
within a few months, in papers all over the land, 
we subjoin a few samples. People will write and 
print their notions about the Rural, and we can’t 
help it;—and we really hope our green-eyed, ner¬ 
vous, bachelor neighbor of the slow monthly, who, 
having neither wife nor children, cannot appreciate 
the value of the Rural as a “Family Institution,” 
(or as an Agricultural and Horticultural Journal, 
especially so long as it renders the “pioneer paper” 
a dead letter in Western N. York,) wiil bear the in¬ 
fliction with becoming fortitude and resignation.— 
Though “ conducted by a printer who wears spec¬ 
tacles” (what a disgrace and misfortune !—wonder 
how Ben Franklin could have survived so long 
and flourished so extensively!) the Rural contin¬ 
ues to increase in favor with both People and Press 
—and we gratefully acknowledge the large, wide, 
cordial and substantial appreciation: 
Rural New-Yorker.— We are pleased to leam that this old and 
popular favorite is finding a wide circulation, notwithstanding the 
bant times. It is just the paper for all sorts of times. It is cheap, 
and contains an extensive table of subjects adapted to meet every 
vsri=ty of correct taste Its f'rm is one convenient for binding, 
and when you have obtained manifold its cost i u current reading, 
it makes a treasure to put away into the library for future reference. 
—New York Observer. 
Moore’s Rural New-Yorker, as its name implies, is extensive¬ 
ly devoted to Agriculture, but in the departments of the Arts, the 
Sciences, Education, Literature, and the Daily News, it is most ably 
and admirably sustained. It may truly be styled, the prince of Ru¬ 
ral papers, arising on its throne of eminence in the center (Roches¬ 
ter) of o e of the greatest agricultural countries in the world, shortly 
destined like the natural Sun. to shed its light around every family 
circle, and show its invigorating, and beautifying power on every 
Rural claim, tlirough Canada and the United States. Nothing but 
an examination could impress its value. It is a large Quarto in size, 
replete with interest and information for every circie of society and 
business.— Index, Newburgh, C. W. 
Rural New-Yorker.— This favorite weekly is emphatically a- 
Family Paper, being devoted to agriculture, horticulture, general in e 
telligencc, and the inculcation of sound morality. The fanner's horn 
circle can have no more profitable and pleasant visitor than the Ru¬ 
ral, and any home would be rendered happier by its presence — 
Vein. Expounder, Marshall, Mich. 
No fanner should be without the Rural, holding as it does the 
highest position of any Agricultural Weekly in the whole Union— 
Republic, Baraboo, Ifffs. 
We recommend the Rural to everybody, because it suits all class 
es of readers.— Sentinel, Itock Bluff's, Nebraska. 
For the Fanner no paper contains a better selected or more ap¬ 
propriately arranged variety of choice and valuable reading, at so 
cheap a rate, or even at any price.— N. IF. Home Journal. 
Moore’ Rural New-Yorker.—T lio unbounded success of this 
agricultural paper, the circulation beiDg larger than any other paper 
of the class in tlris country, is itself a strong recommendation: but 
if any one wishes a better, let him send for a specimen copy, which 
will he furnished free. We have been long acquainted with it, and 
consider it one of the neatest and best arranged and ably conducted 
papers in the country.— U. S. Advertiser, Cincinnati, O. 
The Rural New-Yorker is one of the most complete and 
valuable papers in the Union. It is suited for all classes and con¬ 
ditions of men—the fanner, the mechanic, the lawyer, the merchant, 
the minister, the 6tudent, and, in short, for those in any and every 
dep irtm-nt of life. It seems to be the aim of the conductor to get 
the most in a given space—there is not too much or too little, hut 
everything is in its place and in season. It is just such a paoer as 
the farm rs of this County need, for they will find it complete in 
every department of agriculture. We hope they will subscribe 
liberally, and follow its wholesome teachings .—Independent Watch¬ 
man, SB. Morris, IU. 
Rural New-Yorker. —This is one of the most popular Agricul¬ 
tural and Literary papers in toe Union. Its success has been un- 
paralled in the history of newspapers.— Western Independent, Iowa 
We invite the attention of our readers to the Rural New- Yorker — 
the best and most attractive paper of the kind published on either 
side of the Atlantic.— Constitution, Eric, Pa. 
Moore’s Rural New-Yorker is devoted principally to the in¬ 
terests of the Fanner, but all classes of individuals will be found 
represented to a greater or less degree in its different departments. 
It is just the paper for the family circle, embracing as it does some¬ 
thing of interest and usefulness to each member of the household. 
To those wishing to subscribe for a good paper, and one tiiat will re¬ 
turn to them the value of their money in full, we can safely recom¬ 
mend them to the Rural— Free Press, Rochester, Minnesota. 
Moore’s Rural New-Yorker is the best Agricultural and Fam¬ 
ily Weekly published on the Continent Our farmers could not do 
better than subscribe for this interesting paper ; aud not only amODg 
the fanners, but among business men, mechan ! cs and private fami¬ 
lies, it would always be a most welcome visitor. We should desire 
to see it have a more extensive circulation here.— Warder, C. W. 
Rural New-Yorker. —Tiiis valuable paper has been received, 
and we take pleasure in recommending it to our readers as the best 
paper in this country. It is devoted to Agriculture, Horticulture, 
Literature, Science, Ac., and in all the requisites appertaining to a 
firstrdass family journal, lias no equaL— Press, Brunswick, Mo. 
That sterling Agricultural Literary and Family Newspaper. 
“ Maoris Rural New- Yorker," is deservedly esteemed as the best of 
its class in America. Next to the local journal the “ Rural" is an 
indispensable requisite in every fanner's dwelling .—British Tribune, 
Richmond Hill, C. IF 
Rural New-Yorker. —This is one of the best journals for infor¬ 
mation relativo to the various branches of agriculture, household af¬ 
fairs, and kindred subjects. Those who desire a Northern publication 
of this kind will find the Rural about everything that could lie de¬ 
sired .—Famuy Visitor, Madison, Geo. 
Rural New-Yorker.— We are a constant reader of this excel¬ 
lent Agricultural newspaper, and always find rnucji that is instruc¬ 
tive in the art of cultivating the Earth—the most important of all 
Arts—but we find a liberal supply of interesting items calculated to 
post its readers with much of the current news of the day. Every 
farmer should have it for the information it contains of the improve¬ 
ments and discoveries constantly making. It is worth five times its 
subscription price. Mr. Moore, its Editor and publisher, deserves 
encouragement for his bold, liberal and enlightened efforts to pro¬ 
duce a publication so well adapted to the wants of the producing 
classes .—Le Roy Gazette. 
If you want the best agricultural paper in the world, subscribe for 
the Rural New-Yorker.— Centralia (IU.) Press. 
The Rural New-Yorker, in our opinion, is the very best family 
paper extant— American Citizen, Franklin, Pa. 
We know of no paper published anywhere, that we value so 
highly as a Home and Agricultural Journal, as this sheet We have 
known many a man who has declared himself benefited hundreds 
of dollars, by what he learned from its pages, in a single year. Its 
editor a-d proprietor, Mr. Moore, is a gentleman of integrity, and 
good sense, and knows as well as most people how to get up a good 
paper. He is very sensible in one thing, he demands the pay always 
in advance.—Illinois Baptist. 
The St- Lonis arrived at New York on tlie 28th 
ult, with SI,437,000 in treasure, and California 
dates to the 6th. 
The Humboldt telegraph has been completed 
from Placerville to the first summit of the Sierra 
Nevada. 
Baldwin’s (Dem.) official majority for Judge of 
the Supreme Court is 8,397. 
A vein of valuable red chalk has been found in 
Gold Canon, Sierra county. 
Gold, silver and copper have been found in the 
mountains of Los Angelos. 
Large numbers of Indians made their appear¬ 
ance on the Mohave, causing great alarm at San 
Bernardino. They had attacked and wounded 
several Americans and stolen a number of cattle. 
There is said to be an abundance of water on the 
desert between San Diego and Fort Yuma. 
The Bensley Water Company are now supplying 
a large portion of San Francisco with water from 
Lobos Creek. The water is raised by two engines 
of 150 horse power. The acquednct will supply a 
city four times as large as San Francisco. 
Upwards of 600 returned adventurers from Fra¬ 
ser river had landed at San Francisco. 
The coinage at the Mint during Sept, was $1,030,- 
000 gold, $57,000 silver. 
Advicee from Fraser river are very discour¬ 
aging. The river had fallen some fifteen feet, but 
the result had disappointed the least sanguine, as 
little or no good i3 found a few feet above high 
water. It is now supposed that the prospect will 
not improve until the water reaches its lowest 
stage. To add to the disappointment, some of the 
river bars, heretofore worked with great success, 
appear to be giving out, and the claimants are sell¬ 
ing for trifling sums. 
The rumored massacre of Gen. Palmer, formerly 
Indian Agent in Oregon, and his party of sixty 
men, by the Indians, tarns out to have been un¬ 
founded. They had been attacked, however, but 
beat off their assailants with some los3 on both 
sides. 
Advices of a later date, at San Francisco, from 
Hakodadi, state that an important treaty had been 
completed with the Japanese Government by the 
U. S. Consul at Jeddo. A new port lying in the 
bay of Jeddo, five miles from Jeddo, is to be open¬ 
ed to the Americans. 
Oregon.— The news by the Overland Mail is con¬ 
firmed. Two hostile chiefs, Qaalchin and Ouhi, 
had captured and shot. 
Sandwich Islands.— Dates are to Sept. 16th. A 
new treaty had been made with France. The main 
points yielded to France are, French language to 
be placed on a level with English; dutyon liquors 
to be reduced from $5 to $3 per gallon; French 
vessels to be placed on the same footing as Ha¬ 
waiian; French Consuls allowed to exerctse judi¬ 
cial functions belonging to the Hawaiian Courts. 
The news from the Pacific whalers wa3 bad. To 
the end of August 700 bbls. was the best eatch re¬ 
ported. Many ships had absolutely nothing, while 
the average would not be over 150 bbls. per ship. 
The Ochotsk fleet, numbering sixty ships, will 
probably get plenty of oil The French ship Na¬ 
poleon, on the 3d, had been cut through by ice in 
the Arctic Sea and lost. Some 700 bbls. of her oil 
had been saved by American vessels. 
TnE Isthmus.— Mr. Clark, U. S. Minister, had re¬ 
turned to Gautamala from Honduras, where he had 
been favorably received. 
The cholera was still raging in Gautamala. 
The people of Nicaragua were still discussing 
the question of a federation out of the Central 
American States. 
Mr. Crown, Missionary of the American Bible 
Society, has been expelled by Government from 
San Salvador. 
Bolivia is still disturbed. An attempt was made 
at Latsleee to assassinate President Limar. He 
escaped, but Gen. Prudence and another General 
who stood beside him were shot dead. The assas¬ 
sin had previously proclaimed for General Belsea, 
and attacked the barracks. Tranquility was finally 
restored through the promptness and firmness of 
President Limar. 
Peru again threatens war against Equador, and 
has sent two war vessels to that country, with a 
commissioner to demand satisfaction for recent 
insults to her minister to that Republic. 
The ex-president Echinique, is said to be in 
Bolivia, occupied in fomenting a revolution against 
Castillo’s government.

Paper Money in St. Domingo. —The effect of

The government has issued about fifty-five and a

it at the present time is just one cent on the dollar, 
or as near being entirely worthless as anything can 
be. The government, through its reckless abuse 
of its credit, has entirely destroyed it, and its abiln 
ever to pay its debts.

HE reason why, is that by Nature's own process it restores the 
natural color permanently after the liair becomes gray; supplies 
the natural fluids, and thus makes it grow on bald beads, removes all 
dandruff, itching, and heat from the scalp, quiets and tones up Ute 
nerves, and thus cures all nervous headache, and may be relied upon 
to euro all di-ease* of Hie scalp anil hair; it will stop and keep it 
from tailing off; makes it soft, glossy, healthy and beautiful, and if used 
by the young two or three times a week, it will never tall or become 
gray; then reader, read the following and judge for yourselves: 
New York, Jan. 8,1858. 
MESSRS. O. J. WOOD & CO., 
Gentlemen —Having heard a good deal about Professor Wood’s 
Hair Restorative, and my hair biingjqulte gray, I made up my mind 
to lay aside the prejno ices which I, in common witn a great many 
persons, had against all manner of patent medicines, and a short time 
ago I commenced using your articles to test it for myself 
The result has been so very satisfactory that I am very glad I did 
so, and in justice to you, as well as for tbe encouragement of others 
ho may be as gray as 1 was but who having my prejudice withont 
my reasons for setting it aside, are unwilling to give your Restorative 
trial till they have further proof, and the best proof being occular 
demonstration, I write you this letter, which you may show to any 
such, and also direct them to me for furtht r proof who am in and out 
of the N. Y. Wire Railing Establishment every day. 
My hair is now iis natural color aud muen in proved in npncaranco 
every way, being glossier aud thicker anil much more healthy look¬ 
ing. I am, yours, respectfully, HENRY JENKINS, 
Cor. Colombia and Carroll St-., Brooklyn. 
The Restorative !h put up In bottles of 3 sizes, viz : large, medium, 
and small; the small holds X a pint, and retails for one dollar a bot¬ 
tle ; tlie medium bolds at least twenty per cent more in proportion 
than tho small, retails for two dollars jxir bottlo ; the large holds a 
quart, 40 per cent more in proportion, and retails for $3 per bottlo.
