[ on Sabbath evening. And to derive

[ emn sound, -which no other instrument
[ can ever-attain, which make# it an in
valuable accompaniment to sabbath
evening cr family worship. The cabi-.
net organ is an improvement on. the
melodeon, and has been brought, ,to
great perfection-of late years. Decid
edly the best made are those of Mason

THE ATLANTA.; COHSTITUTIOH,.
FOB’1872.-
This year promises to be second to none
n local- arid national importance. The
great Presidential contest between the Dem
ocratic and Republican parties, or between
Constitutionalism and.. tko . rights pf, the,
people on one side, and Centralism and
Imperiulicm upon the other, will agitate
the country to its remotest corners.
to State afiairsthe times wUl be.- no less
eventful., Just emerging torn a^.terribie-
crisis, the people .of Georgia, will .soon see
the final developments of. the Radical dra
ma enacted tothe Statesince the war. . Be
sides therew ill be the regular election for
Governor.
The Constitution has a corps of corres
pondents, domestic, and-foreign, unsuipass-
ed'by any jonrhalintheSouth. It is pub;
fished at toe capital, and furnishes full pro
ceedings of the - Legislature and the Su-:
preme Court, together with Telegraphic
and Commercial News from all parts of the
World. •
Being at thepolitical centre oi Georgia,
it lias superior advantages to obtain the la
test political and general intelligence..
The Constitution is now the Official
Organ of the State of Georgia and the
Democratic party, having been unani
mously elected at the last sesson of .{he
General Assembly. It . is alto the official
paper pf this city and epunty.
To the people efSeuth-west Gecrgia we,
desire tc call attention to the fact "that The'
Atlanta Constitution now reaches them
rigith the Mapon papers of, the sam e date.
~ " Every onewho would keep up with the
times, and have an intelligent, well inform
ed household, should by all means take his
local paper and one from the "capial.
