FjllO GIVE a still wider circulation to the Hk-
JL rcBLiCAN, and thereby to bring Savannah
and its business more prominently before tbe coun
try, the Proprietors offer their Daily paper at
$5 00 a year, an l their Tri* Weekly at S3 00, to
all now subscribers who pay in advance. To
their present subscribers who do not choose to
pay in advance, the paper will he I mills lied at the
reduced rates 00 and alter the first of Jtiniiarr,
and those who have pud 10 advance will bo cred
ited accordingly.
Wc propose also to issue a Weekly paper, com
mencing early in November, at $2.00 a year, to
tie paul for invariably in advance. To clubs of
lun, the Weekly will lie furnished ul $15,00.
We make this reduction in the price ol the Re
publican tor three reuaorts. Fust, because we
desire to scatter the paper ovcrthis and the ndj-iin.
mg States, in order, as tar as we are able, lo ex
tend the relations and increase the business ol
-Savannah, believing that whatever promote' the
prosperity of the city cannot fail to exert a benefi
cial effi-el upon our own fortunes. The great fa
cilities we possess for distributing daily, tri wi ek
ly, and weekly intelligence, by onr railroad con
nections and steamboat lines, encourage us to be
lieve that the undertaking will be, because if
ought lo he, successful.
Secondly, because other papers throughout the
country arc reducing their rates of subscription
and we would p’aee our readers upon a fooling as
favorable as that enjoyed by the read :rs of those
papers.
Thirdly, because we shall never be more able
lo make the 1 mulct ion than at present. Wc would
101 boast of our success, yet we beg leave to say
ih.it Ihe support which our patrons have accorded
us up to ibis lime, enables us to make this reduc
tion, and thus to. oficr some s'lglit acknowledg
ment lor their past lavors. We hope limy will
see i:i this fact reason Ibr a continuance of then
pationage, and for such cllbris as they may find
j it convenient to make in procuring us additional
subscribers. The step we have resolved upon
must result in loss, without a large accession to
our subscription list.
i lie growing importance of Savannah, as a
commercial centre, to the Planter, the Merchant,
and indeed to all classes, at least in this Slut*,
renders it nonce ssary lor us to otter any argu
ment why they should avail themselves ol the
means thus offered, for obtaining the latest and
