I offer this office for sale, on terms which, we flatter
i ourselves, will speedily ensure us a purchaser.
\ Our advertising patronage yields some -SI2OO

i while the expense of conducting the paper is, to
i a practical printer, but trifling. The paper is
: well established, and with judicious management
might be made much more profitable than it now

tablishment without delay, we have determined
to offer it for SI2OO, cash ; which is certainly a

i PROSPECTUS
OF THE
SAVANNAH WEEKLY REPUBLICAN
A Convention composed of Delegates
from the severul counties in the first Con
gressional District of the State of Georgia,
met in the city of Savannah on Mav 23d,
1844, for the purpose of nominating Wean
didate to be supported by the Wkjfs 9 tbo
District for the 28th Congress, and for oth
er purposes connected with the prosperity
and permanence of the great Whig party of
the Union. After the principal business
before the Convention had been disposed of,
on motion of Mr, Guyton, of Laurens, the
following preamble and resolutions were
unanimously adopted :
Whereas, there is no weekly newspaper
df voted to tiio advocacy of Whig principles
I published within the limits of the First Con
gressional District, and whereas the exis
tence ui such an organ is essential to the
triumph and permanence ofsound doctrines
not only in the District, but within the
State—
Be it Resolved, That this Convention,
having the utmost confidence in the princi
ples and management of the Savannah Re
publican, do recommend to the proprietors
of said paper, forthwith to commence the
publication of a weekly sheet, devoted to
the interests and advancement of sound
Whig doctrines and adapted to the perusal
of the agricultural and general reader.
Resolved further, That the members of
this Convention do most cordially recom
mend all good Whigs, as well as the mem
bers of several Clay Clubs, to manifest their
attachment to their principles by liberally
patronizing said paper, and wo further
pledge ourselves to use our personal influ
ence to extend its circulation.
In acoordance with the above recommen
dation, the Proprietors of the Daily and
Tri-Weekly Republican, propose to issue,
during the month of July next, a weekly
sheet devoted to the objects specified in the
foregoing resolutions. The issue ofthe pa
per and its permanence will greaty depend
upon the response which we have from the
people. To sustain the enterprise, a large
list of paying subscribers is absolutely ne
cessary. Those of our readers, therefore,
both in the District and State, who are de
sirous of seeing such a paper sustained,
will please exert themselves to procure
subscribers. The paper will be adapted to
the family circle, having always a due pro
portion of Miscellaneous Matter, Foreign
and Domestic News, &c. <Szc. Reports of
the Savannah Markets will appear regu
larly, while we will in no instance neglect
to sustain the interests ofthe Planters and
Farmers—the true aristocracy—the boue
and sinew of the country.
In Politics, the Republican will be Whig.
It will sustain the genuine Whig principles,
as represented by the candidates recently
nominated at the Baltimore Whig Conven
tion. Having every confidence in the hon
esty, ability and patriotism of HENRY
CLAY and THEODORE FRELING
HUYSEN, we will advocate their claims
to their office in the Republic, confident that
in all questions, touching either the inter
nal policy of the Government or our foreign
relations, they are men who will betray
neither their country nor their party.
The Weekly Republican will be printed
on fine paper and new type, procured ex
pressly for the purpose, and will be almost
entirely filled with reading matter—not
more than two or three columns usually
being allowed for advertisements.
Terms: —Single copy, $3 per annum.
Two copies sent to the same address, orone
copy for two years, $5. Five do. do. $lO
— Payable in advance. Clay Clubs or in
dividuals ordering 20 copies or more, will
be charged only 50 cents per copy for the
campaign. LOCKE & DAVIS.
