Hall is our General Traveling Ag’t to solicit and receipt for subscriptions and ad vertisements for the “Southern Confederacy.” Mr. T. C. Duval, of Rome, is also author ized to receive cash, and give receipts for the “ Southern Confederacy.” Notice. Very often our friends hand in local notices and advertisements too late in the even ing for their appearance next norning. The printers leave our office at six o’clock; and for more than two hours before they leave no new matter can ba got in. In order to insure in sertion, they should be furnished to us by two o’clock. Advertising. The Confederacy has more than three times the circulation of any paper in Georgia, North of Augusta, and is fully equal to that of any paper in the State. We do not make thisstate naent either as a boast, or in order to convey any erroneous impression, we say it candidly —knowing what we say—and because it is true. The Southern Confederacy Office, Has a reliable special letter and telegraphic correspondent at Manassas Junction —the great attractive field of battle at present. We have also engaged reliable correspondents from vari ous points in Virginia. Everybody wants to hear the news, and all important dispatches or news items received by us, will be promptly placed ou the Confederacy bulletin. In these exciting times it is probable that ex travagant rumors will get afloat. We caution the people against them, and beg everybody to be careful what they believe. We have every possible facility for obtaining correct news. This, however, costs ua heavily, and we hope every one who is so anxious to get war news will admit the equity of subscribing and paying for our paper. Quite a number of names on our daily list and a few on the weekly, will be erased this week, unless the subscriptions are renewed. We in variably stop sending the paper at the termina tion of the time for which it la paid. OF* Our terms for the Daily are $5 per annum or 50 cents per month—the cheapest Daily in the South, that gives the same amount of read ing matter. t-#”ln all cases, subscribers to the Daily “Confederacy” will be charged at the rate of 50 cents per month for any length of time less than one year. The Weekly is a very large sheet, lull of the choicest reading matter. The cheapest way to gel the news is to subscribe for the Confeder acy. Prof. 11. H. Tucker’s Appointments.

Doctors and Nurses Wanted. To the Editors of the Confederacy : Dear Sirs : The fact has now become well authenticated, that the hospitals in Richmond are poorly supplied with physicians and nurs es. The medical staff of these institutions is bo limited, that our brave defenders who are sick or wounded, suffer for that attention to which they are justly entitled. This is an evil, which, in my opinion, needs only to be known, to be remedied. The medical men and the medical students of the Confederate States are amply able, and, I trust, freely wil ling to supply this deficiency. On, then, to the rescue, my medical friends, and let it not be said that the fell ravages of disease have proved more destructive to our gallant volun teers than the enemy’s bullets. Positions on the medical staff of the army have been sought with great avidity. At the organization of each of our regiments, there has been no lack of applicants for the position of surgeon and assistant surgeon—indeed, many felt them selves called to these places, but few were chosen. Now, here are situations of useful ness and honor, if not of profit. Why not seek them ? Do you want an extensive field ofobservation, and for the acquisition of chem ical experience ? Here is one presented to you on a grand scale, with no limit but your own capacity to labor; and, while adding to your stock of. useful knowledge experience that will prove invaluable in the future, you will have the gratification of promoting the noblest cause that ever enlisted the interest of man.— Let every physician, then, who can, hasten to the relief of his suffering fellow countrymen, and discharge the obligations resting on our profession in the present juncture. But nurses are needed, as well as physicians. Where are our medical students ? who can find here a field of instruction to be obtained do where else, except in similar institutions.— Here are clinical opportunities unrivalled in their freedom and extent, and of inestimable value to the student. A sojourn of twelve months in one of these hospitals, will teach the student more medicine than half a dozen courses of theoretical lectures. To encourage students to engage in this work of mercy and patriotism, I would respect fully suggest to the faculties of our medical colleges to receive a residence of certain dura tion in these hospitals, in lieu of a course of lectures. The plan and details can be arrang ed by concert of action among the colleges. It may not be amiss to add, that Congress has made an appropriation for the remunera tion of medical services rendered in these hospitals. O’K.

To the Voters of Cobb, Fulton and Clay ton Counties : As the time for the election of members to the State Legislature approaches, and there seems to be no one enough interest ed in the subject to bring it positively before the public—nearly all eyes being attracted to wards the battlefield—and being physically un able to enter upon the active duties of the sol dier, and being further unwilling to allow the great events of the present struggle to pass by without taking some humble part therein, I have concluded that the demands of patriotism would, in some degree, be subserved by volun teering my services for the humbler duties of civil life, and, therefore, place my name before you as a candidate for Senator of the district composed of the counties of Cobb, Fulton and Clayton.
