As the season for Trade is again at hand, we would remind 
those who wish to Do Business the present Autumn and 
Fall, that the Rural Nkw Yorkkr possesses extraordinary 
advantages as an Advertising Medium, its actual circulation 
exceeding by at least 20,000 that of any other paper published 
in this State or section of the Union (out of New York city.) 
In addition to its immense circulation among the best 
portion of the Rural Population, (more particularly in New 
York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Wis 
consin, &C..I it L» taken by thousands of Business and Pro¬ 
fessional Men in Villages and Cities from Canada to Califor¬ 
nia, and Maine to Minnesota. Hence, it is the medium 
through which to reach, at once, Tens ot Thousands 
of the most enterprising, progressive and wealthy Farmers, 
Horticulturists, Ac., and hosts of Merchants, Mechanics, 
Manufacturers and Professional Men. Its pages are unques¬ 
tionably the best and cheapest ohannel on this Continent 
for the Business Cards and Announcements of all who wish 
to address the Agricultural and Horticultural Pub¬ 
lic,—such as Dealers in Implements and Machinery,—Fruit 
Trees, Shrubs, Plants and Flowers,—Seeds and Fertilizers,— 
Improved Stock, Real Estate, Ac,—as well as for loading 
Publishers and Booksellers, (especially of standard and 
practical works,) Wholesale Dealers, Manufacturers, Educa¬ 
tional Institutions, Land, Insurance and other Companies, 
Agencies, Ac.: and indeed for all who wish to secure large 
and wide, and hence profitable publicity. The fact that hut 
limited space is devoted to Advertising, nail that a rigid ren 
sorship is exercised over that department (our aim being to 
keen the wijoi.b paper free from quackery, humbug and 
deception,> renders the Rural far more valuable as a me¬ 
dium of making known matters of value anu utility—for its 
announcements are generally so new and of such character 
as to be read and heeded by all interested.

RICH ROLLING PRAIRIE LANDS.

wonderful facility that the farmers of tbo Eastern and Mid¬ 
dle States are moving to Illinois in great numbers. The area

so rich that it will support twenty millions of people.

which connects with other roods and navigable lakes and 
rivers, thus affording an unbroken communication with the 
Eastern and Foil them markets. 
APPLICATION OF CAPITAL. 
Thus far, capital and labor have been applied to developing 
tho soil ; tho great resources of the Stale m coal and iron are 
almost untouched, Thu Invariable rule that the mechanical
