RICULTURAL PAPER. ...
PUBLISHED AT
GERMANTOWN, PHILA'IA CO., PENMX
Every Wednesday Moasinc.
BY MILIP R. FREJS. I
PRICE TWO DOLLARS PER ANNUM. .
We take tins occasion to announce to Farm-
ers throughout the country, that it is the in
tention of the Editor and Proprietor of the
'Germantown Telegraph," not only to con
tinue as heretofore the Agricultural Depart
ment of his paper, but sedulously to add te
its character and value by all the means at
command. All necessary spare shall be pro
vided for a ful record of Agricultural Details
and a full development of every branch of the
Farmer's Pursuit. He will in future, as he
has always heretofore, aim to be practical,
and to be of real and substantial advantage
to husbandry. If is course, also, will continue
to be thoroughly independent, and wholly un
biassed by any other motives than those he
conceives to be promotive of the true interest
of Agriculture In its broadest meaning. Neither
individuals, cliques, societies, or any ether in
fluence shall swerve him from the path of
right and duty.
Farmers, throughout the country, who de
sire a Newspaper, issued weekly, and equal
to any other family news and literary journal
published, which makes Agriculture a speci
ality, will find the "Germantown Telegraph"
to fulfill every condition, and to render it en
tirely unnecessary for them to subscribe for a
periodical exclusively agricultural. .
Practical Horticulture, Pomology and Gar
dening, generally, will meet with particular
attention.
As a Literary and News Journal it shall
not be surpassed by any in the country.
Neatly printed on good paper, of the largest
class, it shall continue to be one of the hand
somest newspapers of the day.
Every Family, in town or country, whether
they take other papers or not, will find ths
'Germantown Telegraph" to be worth, in lit
eraj benefit, twice the amount of subscription.
No subscriptions received without the cash.
Price Two Dollars in advAnc. Subscriptions
not paid within the year, $2.50. Mail sub
scribers will have the cash postage deducted
when not exceeding 25 cts. per annum, pro
vided the subscription be paid strictly in ad
vance. Postage stamps to this amount will
be returned as change with the receipt.

one time, with the cash, will be entitled to th
paper for omyear. . .
