To persons applying for specimen numbers of Barnard's American Journal of Education, with a view of becoming subscribers, a copy of the last number issued will be mailed, on receipt of seventy-five cents, half the price at which single numbers are sold, and twelve cents in stamps for prepayment of postage, at the office of publication. POSTAGE. The law applicable to postage on this quarterly periodical is as follows: "For each periodical, not exceeding three ounces in weight, to any part of the United States, one cent; for every additional ounce or fraction of an ounce, one cent. If paid quarterly or yearly in advance, at the office where the same is either mailed or delivered, then half the above rates are charged." The weight of each number of this Journal is from thirteen to seventeen ounces; making full postage from eleven to fifteen cents per number, or from forty-four to sixty cents a year; and postage paid in advance, at either end of the route, six to eight cents per number, or from twenty-two to thirty cents a year. MAILING. The numbers of the Journal-done up in single wrapper of stout post-office paper, and, when addressed beyond New England and New York, tied up with strong twin-are mailed to the post-office address of each subscriber who has paid up his subscription for the year, on or before the day of publication of each number, viz., the 15th of March, June, September, and December. If a number does not reach its destination in due time, the fault is not with this office. EXCHANGES. The publisher looks for the usual courtesy of a notice of the reception, and a specification at least of the subjects of the several articles, from those journals which have solicited an exchange; and an omission of this courtesy is supposed to indicate that no further exchange is desired.
