A MODEL NEWSPAPER
Ti-Savannah Daily News.
The Savannah Daily Norning News is ae
lodged bv the press and people to be the
‘ * ally vri p er sou th 0 f Louisville and east
of New Orleans. Carrying with it the prestige
and reliability of age, nnd it baa all the vigor
and vitality of youth, and its enterprise as a
gatherer of the latest and freshest news has
astoushed its cotemporaies and met the appro
bation ot the bublic.
During the year 1873 no expense of time,
labor,* and money will be spared to keep the
Morning News ahead of all its competitors in
Georgia journalism, and to deserve the** flatter
ing enconiums heaped upon it from all quar
ters. There has as yet, been no serious at
tempt made to rival the special telegrams which
the News inaugurated some years ago, and
the consequence, is that the reader in search
cf the latest intelligence always looks to the
Morning News. The telegraphic arrange
ments of the paper are such that the omissions
made by the general press reports are promptly
and reliably supplied by its special correspond
ents.
The Morning News lias lately been enlarged
to a thirty-six column paper, and this broad
scope of type embraces, daily, everything of
in.erest that transpire in the domain of litera
ture, Art, science, Politics, Religion, and Gen
eral intelligence, giving to the roader more
and better digest than other papar in matter
the State.
It is perhaps needless to speak of the poli
tics of Morning News. For yeiira and
years indeed, since its estalishment,—it has
been a representative Southern paper, and
irom that time to the present, in all conjunct
ures, it has consistently and persistently main
tained Democratic States Rights principles, and
labored, with an ardor and devotion that know
no abatement, to promote and preserve the in
terests and honor of the South.
The special features of the Morning News
will be retained and improved upon during the
ensuing year and several new attractions will
be added.
The Georgia News items, with their quaint
and pleasant humor, and the epitome of Florida
affairs, will be continued during the year.
The local department w ill be the most com
plete and reliable to be found in any Savan
nah paper, and the commercial columns will
be hill and accurate.
The price of the Daily is $lO 00 per annum
$2.00 lor six months; SI.OO for one month.
THE TRI-WEEKLY NEWS.
Tin’s edition of the Morning News is es
pecially recommended to those who have nt
the facilities of a daily mail. Everything that
has been said in regard to the daily edition
may be repeated of the Tri-weekly. It is made
up with great care, and contains the latest des
patehes and market reports. The price of this
edition is $(5. 00 perannum, $3. OOfor six months,
and $1.50 for three months.
THE WEEKLY NEWS.
The Weekly Morning News particularly rec
ommends itself to the farmer and planter, and
to those who live off the line of railroad. It is
one of the best family papers in the country,
and its cheapness brings it within the reach of
all. It contains Thirty-six solid columns of
reading matter, and is mailed so as to reach sub
scribers with the utmost promptness. It is a
carefully and laboriously edited compendium
of the news of the week, and contains in addi
tion, an infinite variety ot other choice reading
matter. Editorials on all topics, sketches ol
men, manners, and fashions, talcs, poetry, bi
ography, pungent paragraphs and condensed
telegrams enter into its make-up. It contains
the latest telegraphic dispatches and market re
ports up to the hour of going to press, and is
in all respects, an indispensiLle adjunct to every
home.
Price-One year, $2.00; six months, $1.00;
three months, 50 cents.
Subscription for either edition of the Morn
ing News may besentby express at the risk and
expense of the proprietor. Address.
