Monmouthshire Merlin

IMPORTANT TO ADV^kTISERS rpHE Counties of SO^H WALES, bor- JL derin^ on England, °ffer tbe most valuable and profitable fields for ADVERTISERS that can be found within the "fune extent in the empire—if we exclude the great Metropolis, and the rich teeming districts of the ever-productive, the ever-absorbing NORTH. MONMOUTHSHIRE, GLAMORGANSHIRE BRECONSHIRE, with their large population, commercial enterprise, and rapidily-iticreasing wealth, are, unquestionably, COUNTIES to which Advertisers may look with confidence for an ample return for any outlay they may incur, in pushing their several interests, with a view to large and produc- tive sales, &c. THE MONMOUTHSHIRE MERLIN, LAMORGAN3IIIRE AND BRECON SILURIAN, AND SOUTH ALES DVEKTISER, has been for more than a quarter of a century, the GREAT ADVERTISING MEDIUM OF THE DISTRICT. Advertisers desirous of availing themselves of the pub- licity of its columns, are requested to address the Publisher, Mr. CHRISTOPHERS, NEWPORT, MON- MOUTHSHIBB. Advertisements inserted on a Moderate Scale; and when Contracted for by the Year, Half-year, or Quarter, the terms are proportionately reduced. NEWSPAPER CIRCULATION.

THE FIRST NUMBER FOR 185V OF THE GARDENERS'CHRONICLE & AGRICULTURAL GAZETTE A Weekly Record of Rural Economy and General News. THE HORTICULTURAL PART EDITED BY PROFESSOR LINDLEY. The FARMING PART (under the Editorship of a practical Farmer) treats of- The Practice of Agriculture Results of Experimental Farming Foresting Agricultural Science Growth and Rotation of Crops Road-making Animal and Vegetable Physiology Management of Stock Farm-Buildings Improvements in Implements, de- Veterinary Science Labourers scribed by Woodcuts whenever Drainage Treatment of Poultry requisite. Irrigation Agricultural Publications Improved modes of Husbandry. In short, whatever affects the beneficial employment of capital in land. Reports are regularly given of the English, Scotch, and Irish Agricultural Societies and Farmers' Clubs—London Markets, Prices of Corn, Hay, Cattle, Seeds, Hops, Potatoes, Wool, Coal, Timber, Bark, &c., and tiie Weekly Avorages. An Edition is also published every Monday in time for post, containing Reports on Mark Lane and the Cattle Market. As REGARDS THE GARDENING PART, (under the Editorship of Dr. Lindley) the principle is to make it a weekly record of everything that bears upon Horticulture, Floriculture, Arboriculture, or Garden Botany, and such Natural history as has a relation to Gardening, with Notices and Criticisms of all Works on such subjects. Connected with this part are WEEKLY CALENDARS OF GARDENING OPERATIONS, Given in detail, and adapted to the objects of persons in every station of life so that the Cottager, with a few ro ls of ground before his door, the Amateur who has only a Greenhouse, and the Manager of Extensive Gardens, are alike informed of the routine of Operations which tlse varying seasons render necessary. It moreover contains Reports of Horticultural Exhibitions and Proceedings—Notices of Nove ties and Improvements—in fact, everything that can tend to advance the Profession, benefit the condition of the Workman, or conduce to the pleasure of his Employer. Wooilcuts are s;iven whenever the matter treated of requires that mode of illustration. REPLIES TO QUESTIONS connected with the object of the Paper are also furnished weekly. Lastly, that description of DOMESTIC AND POLITICAL NEWS is intioduced which is usually found in a Weekly Newspaper. It is unnecessary to dwell on this head further than to s.ty, that the Proprietors do not range themselves under the banners of any Party; their earnest endeavo irs are to wake THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE AND AGRI- CULTURAL GAZETTE a full and comprehensive Record of Facts only—a Newspaper in the true sense of the word— leaving the Reader to form his own opinions their object being the elucidation of the laws of Nature, not of Mail. The reader is thus furnished, IN ADDITION TO THE PECULIAR FRATURES OF THE JOURNAL, with such information concerning the events of the day, as supersedes the necessity of his providing himself with any other Weekly Paper.
