NOTICES OF THE PRESS. 
All readers who have the least interest in rural affairs, should 
take a work which is exerting such a manifest influence upon the 
taste of the country. Its valuable correspo deuce furnishes from 
time to time the fruits of the experience of our most intelligent 
cultivators, and it is scarcely necessary to repeat, that Mr. Down¬ 
ing’s labors in the department of Rural Architecture and embel¬ 
lishment give him substantial claims to public respect Their ef¬ 
fects are already seen in every part of the country, in improved 
cottages, gardens, green-houses, pleasure-grounds, fencing, Sec

The New Volume and New Prospectus of 
THE PLOUGH, LOOM, AND ANVIL. 
DOPULAR as this Jousnal is, and so far successful beyond any 
-*• we have heretofore established, its income does not yet exceed 
its own expenses ; leaving the Editors to live on air or hope ; nei¬ 
ther of which is very substantial diet. Now, as we believe that 
we have not a friend who would willingly see the man wanting 
bread, who has been teaching others how to make it all his life, we 
at once frankly solicit our present patrons to use their influence to 
average one more subscriber each, and then “ The Plough , the 
Loom and he Anvil," and those that are working at it, will be do¬ 
ing what is commonly called a safe business, and not until then. 
We are truly sorry to be underlie necessity of making this appeal; 
for, could we afford it, we would rejoice, as on past occasions, to 
show that we would most willingly work as hard, gratuitously, for 
the great industrial interests of the country, as we are now doing 
in the hope of at least a scanty support. 
Terms of the Plough, Loom, and Anvil, $10 for five subscri¬ 
bers ; $5 for two, and $3 for one ; or $5 for tivo years' subscrip¬ 
tion ; 64 pages a month. 
It is not ill the way of remuneration, but to evince our gratitude 
for the kindness we solicit, and at the same time to promote the 
perusal of works which every farmer ought to read, that we here¬ 
by make the following offer : — 
We engage to forward to every one who will send us by mail, 
at our risk, $10 for a club of five subscribers, or $5 for two sub¬ 
scribers. or the same for the first and second volumes ; a copy, at 
h s own option, either of Mr. Carey’s admirable work—” The Past , 
the Present, and lie Future ,” or a copy of Col. Randall’s book on 
“ Sheep Husbandry ’’—decidedly the best work on the subject that 
has been offered to the American public. To any one making up 
and sending us in like manner. $20 for ten subscribers, we will 
supply a copy of “ Von Thaer's Principles of Agriculture," for a 
single English copy of which, we gave $12 in Boston a year ago, 
considering it a work of inestimable value. To all who may, in 
like manner, by mail, at our risk, forward $3 for one subscriber, 
we will send a copy of The Element s of Agriculture ,”—ihe post¬ 
age of which will not be over four or five cents.

the oldest of the fraternity of Editors. J. S. SKINNER.
