We make this reduction in Ihe prhhs'of the Ee
ruaucAN lor lim e reasons First, because We
de-ire to scatter the p-A per Overt Ins and the a ej. lin
ing States, in order, as tar us we arc able, to ex
tend the relation* ami increase Ihe business of
Savannah, believing that whatever proniutC". the
.prosperity oftheciiy cannot tail to exert a Iremfi
: elal < Heel upon mir’own fortunes. The great fa*
‘ciljties we possess for distributing daily,ln wiek
ly, and weekly intelligence,.’ by’ our railroad con
nections ami si cam i mat lines, encourage os to : be
lieve that the undertaking will be, because i.t
ought to tie, successful.
Secondly, because oilier papers throughout the
country arc reducing tlieir rates of subscription,
and we would place our reader i upon a fooling as
favorable as that enjoyed by the readers of those
paper?.
t'hirdlv, because we shall never be more able
to make >he tednci ion than at present. We would
not boast of our success, yet we beg leave to say
that lire support which our patrons have accorded
us up to this tunc, enables us ti> make this reduc
tion, and thus to oiler spine sight acknowledg
ment tor their past favors. We hope they will
see iti this tact reason for a continuance ol tlieir
pationagn, uhdTcr such efibrts as they mmy find
it convenient to make in procuring jus additional
suhscritiers. Tlie step we. have resolved upon
must result in loss, without a large accession to
our sutiscriptmu list.
i lie growing ‘importance of Savannah, as a
Commercial centre, to the Planter, the Merchant,
and indeed to a'.l.c.lfis.'” ?, .at. least in tins Stuti,
renders it unneo ssaiy lor us to off r any argu
ment why they should avail themselves nl the
