Joutlietn (tonfciUriicn ; ggg"The Daily and Weekly “Confederacy” for sale at all times, at five cents per copy. Old Papers For sale at our Reading Room. Price fifty cents per hundred. —— ♦* Our General Traveling Agent. Mr. J. T. 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.” Red Mark. We shall send each subscriber whose term expires during this month, a back number of our paper with a X and the day on which their subscription expires, marked on the margin, with a red pencil. A prompt remit tance will insure the continuance of the pa per-otherwise the names will be erased from our books. 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 be 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 this state ment 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 J unction—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 on the Confederacy bulletin. 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 is paid. EOT 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. J3T In 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, full of the choicest reading matter. The cheapest way to get the news is tc subscribe for the Confeder acy. A Proposition. We want each and every one of our numer ous subscribers to consider him or herself our agent to procure one more subscriber at least —we care not bow many more. Let each pro cure andtend us one. This will be easily done —will cost each one but little trouble, and be of great benefit to us, in the aggregate. Advertising patronage is almost nominal, and we have no Government or other special patronage to sustain us. Our enterprize is standing on its own merits, and we are spend ing every dollar of our profits to increase the usefulness and interest of our paper. Other papers in Georgia have raised their price and reduced their size to suit the hard times. This we have not done, and hope we shall not be compelled to do. We are doing the best we can for our readers, and, therefore, we the more confidently appeal to them to assist us by extending the circulation of the “Confed eracy. Let our circulation be doubled. This will greatly enhance our facilities for improv ing our paper. The Wright Legion. This Is a new military organization authorized by the Confederate Government. It is named In honor of Hon. Augustus R. Wright, of Floyd county, who will, In all probability, be called to the command. The Logion will consist of ten companies, viz: two of Flying Artillery, with four pieces each; four of Infantry, with four pieces each, in addition to the usual arms; and four of Lancers, to be armed with Lee’s Spring- Sabre Lance and ten-inch Repeaters. Companies wishing to form a part of this Le gion will report immsdiatrfy, at this place, to Capt. G. W. Lek or L. J. Park, giving names of Companies, officers and the number of rank and tile. As soon as these gentlemen are notified of the willingness of a sufficient number of Com panies to enter the Legion, they will be ordered into Camp, near this city, for equipment and instruction. All the expenses of transportation and snbsistance, from the time of leaving home, will be defrayed by the Confederate Govern ment. It is thought that the Legion will be or dered to our own sea-coast. — Notice to Volunteers. Editors Confederacy : I am authorised to or ganize a regiment of infantry, for the war, and have positive assurance, from the proper authorities, that our services will be accepted immediately upon the organization of such regiment. The officers of such companies as wish to unite with us and enter into immediate ser vice, will please tender their service by for warding their muster-roll as soon as possi ble. Address (Rev.) T. B. HARBEN, Lexington, Ga. The Atlauta Grays. Capt. J. T. Lewis writes me that this com pany are wauling blankets, which cannot be procured where they are. Every man in the company has a family or friends here who can furnish him with a blanket. If they will deposit them at my office I will forward to the company. Let it be done at once. N. 3. HAMMOND.
