COLEMAN. l-iy A MODEL NEWSPAPER The Savannah Daily News. The Savannah Daily Norning News is ac knowledged by the press and people to be the best daily piper south of Louisville and east of New Orleans. Carrying with it the prestige and reliability of age, and it has all the vigor and vitality of youth, and its enterprise as a gatherer of the latest and freshest news has astonshed its cotemporaies and met the appro bation ot the bublic. plTiDlllil 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 eneoniums heaped npon 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 raider in search cf the latest intelligence always looks to the Morning -N ews. 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 has lately been enlarged to a thirty-six column paper, and this broad scope of type embraces, daily, everything ot interest that transpire in the domain of litera ture, Art, science, Politics, Religion, and Gen eral intelligence, giving to the reader more and better digest than other papar in matter the State. It is perhaps needless to speak of the poli tics ot the Morning News. For years and years indeed, since its estalishment, —it has been a representative Southern paper, and from 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 will be the most com plete and reliable to be found in any Savan nah paper, and the commercial columns will be full and accurate. The price of the Daily is $lO 00 per annum $2.00 for six months; SI.OO for one month. THE TRI-WEEKLY NEWS. This 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 patches paid market reports. The price of this edition is SG. 00 per annum, $3.00 for six months, and $1.50 for three months. THE WEEKLY NEWS. The Weekly Morning News particularly roc ommcnds 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 ot all. It contains Thirty-six solid columns oi reading matter, and is mailed so as to roach 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, tales, 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 indispensitle 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 be sent by express at the risk and expense of the proprietor. Address. J. H.
