June 4,1644 m4tn 41 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. Savannah, 1844. 43 GEORGIA , ) Whereas, John G. Hammock, Wilkes county.
