retard the circulation Of monthly periodical, and
determined to furnish the earliest information,
have deemed it advisable. thus 10 throw out week

cnrrences, sporting and agriculture intelligence

site to carry into the Magazine matter Of record
or reference, its pages thus divested of much ex-
traneons matter. with which they would other
wise in some measure of necessity be clogged,
will have the more room for that which is enter
tanning or instructive and thereby be rendered q
work Of greater interest.
