to-day it is the text of the political fattli ot thousands of

thus euubling it to contribute largely to the triumph of
the Democratic party.
In tlio future, us in the past, no pains will be spared to

serving of the confidence aud patrouuge which bus been
so liberally extended to it by tbo people of Georgiu and
Florida. The ample means ot the establishment will be
devoted to the improvement of the paper in all its depart
ments, und to making it a comprehensive, instructive and
reliable medium of the current news. Its staff of Special
correspondents—at Washington, Atlanta, Jacksonville,
Tallahassee, and other points of interest—has been re
organized with a view of meeting every possible emer
gency that may arise, und pains will be taken to muke its
commercial news, foreign und domestic, complete aud
reliable.
As we are about entering upon the new year, wo desire
to call special attention to our club rates of subscription.
