NOV. »>, 1871. wt-v —=» rorfipi So(t». ruruLTD ros tut mifliiyg atn> uwzxosa* Eopnblionn principle* sre tasking the meat astounding progress is England, a country so eminently cowctTttiTe. When, after the death of Frinea Albert, the Queen retired from pub lic Ufa, England honored the deep grief of her sovereign. Bat, as yews rolled on and the Qaeeti continued the name asoluded life, growing dissatisfaction manifested itself among the people who missed the dazzling pomp of royalty, while the tradesmen complained of the lack of eastern on the part of the Court. Thn* It occurred to searching minds to inquire Into the oost of royally, which did not even add to the loiter of the nation by displaying the pomp and splendor of a royal ooort. By and by it waa whispered that secret habits rendered the Queen incapable of performing tt duties of her high office, until John Gnbbli Secretary of the Total Abetinence Society of Rrixham. in a recent meeting, publicly accused her of inhumation. The political movement aiming at aboliaUng the privilege, of the noWL its and establishing the Republic was hitherto hroded by comp^tirely Recurs men who would advocate the moat radioal measures But tbs whole question U entering upon a new phase when Sir Chariot Dilke, a distinguished member of Parliament, subject* the oasts of royalty to a searching criticism. In an elaborate speech de livered before a large crowd of workingmen at Now Castle-on-Tyoc, ha pointed out bow the Qaeen from various aonroea derived an annual inoome of one million pounds sterling; he pro ceeded to enumerate and ridicule the snpeifln- otw court charge* and official* attached to the Queen's household, and almost accused her of nrimpproprialing the public funds for her own private purse which Parliament bad granted her for the express purpoee of royal representation. He concluded bis remarkable speech by saying “f doubt, whether, if the chargee to which have alluded are well founded, monarchy would not best set its bouse in order. There ie a wide- spread belief that a Republic here U only a mat ter of education and time. It ia said that some day a Commonwealth will bo our government If yon can show me a fair chance that a lie pub lic here will be free from the political corrup tion that bangs about a monarchy, I say, for my part, and I lielieve Iho middle classes will say, lot it 0006 1** • Imitating the French and Germans, the gov eminent contemplates appointing publio prose cutor* whose task it will be to bring vigorouriy all eriminals to joattoe at the expenao of the State. The introduction of tribunals of com merce, as they exist in France and Germany, ia also under consideration. At the last session of Psriiament the House of Commons had ap pointed a committee to study the feasibility of this reform. The report of the oommisrion t ost published recommend* its introduction to ’srluroent. The expense of suing before the higher ooort* of the country it now so enor mous that many merchants are prevented from liringingaoy suit Tribunals of commerce af ter the Oode Napoleon would form cheap,prompt and effiotsnt courts of joattoe, thus placing the means of aeaking redress within the reach of all, even the poorest. The Count of Chanihord has taken the pain* of denying that be intended to anrronder hi* hereditary rights to the throne of Fraooe. A* ■he Trench people will never rally under the white banner, representing stagnation and re action, Henri Cinq has done a very anpetfi'ioas thing. The editor of the Poro Duchesne, the orgnn of the nitre Communisth, ha* been sentenced to penal servitude for life. The Government, recognizing the importance of popular education, is devising means lot in itiating a system of general training, which has too loog already been neglected in France. The commit tee obarged with inquiring into the state of popular education in Paris, have drawn up a report which testifies to an appaliog state of ig norance in the French oapital, pompously boast log of marching at the bead of civilization. While Haoeaniann, with lavish hands, spent hundred* of tnillioos for re-building Paris, and Ilia Empire wasted the publio exchequer in ex- travagant court festivities sod adventurous ex peditions, there wore f>7,000 children in the Oapital suffered to grow up without even the rudiments of education for the want of achool- houaca. Leon Bay, the present Prefect of the Heine Department, has earnestly sot to work ‘ remedy those orylng evils, and responding his proposition the municipal conncil baa doubled the sum of &>3,31.'> francs originally allotted for elementary aMiool* in the budget for 1872. Though Ibis antn la still quite inadequate for a city like Paria, Leon Hay deserves great prsiae for hla zealons endeavors to put a stop to the criminal neglect of popular education under the empire. . The introduction of compulsory education and gratnitoos elementary instruction forms also the theme of Uvely discussions in the press. While the liberal papers are favoring these re forma, thn derieal organs am decidedly op posed to them. \ clique has formed for the purpose of securing a law, making education compulsory and seeing that it be rigidly forced. Dnpanloup, the Bishop of Orleans the other band, has addressed a letter to the leading pipers, opposing as well oompnlsory education, as gratuitous elementary instruc tion. He denounces the first, on the ground ground that the religions schools, being nnable to ooinpele with those established by the State, would be compelled to dose, while compulsory education would place the enperintendence of imblio ins! ruction entirely into the hands of the temporal authorities. The French have loved to indulge in the pleas- ing self-delusion, that French being the tongne of the cultured world, exempted them from the necessity of acquiring any foreign tongue. The late war, however, taught France many bitter lessons, and contribnted greatly to de stroying many cherished illusions. Tbo Minis ter of War has since issued n decree making the atody of German compulsory for all offioem and regimental schools, while the Minister of In struction has given orders to farther the study of foreign languages—German and English par ticularly. King Victor Emamiel has taken up his per manent residence in Borne and opened the Italian Parliament. On the authority of a Faria paper it is stated that the Pope, addressing a large number of penona in an interview, thus expressed himself: “We should resign cunelvea to the will of the Most High, and pray without ceasing for the whole world, for everywhere evil i. making fearful progress Infidelity and impiety arc now again lifting their heads in Germany. Hen - ay is making great effort to oppress the Chris tian religion, and to establish its own gennine- nea* on its ruins; but, wbat is still moro lament able, ia that th# impious movement is coun tenanced by the governments in Prussia, Spain and Swiiserland. Indeed, everywhere revolu tion seeks to triumph and drag down society into an abyss of evils." The labor movement in Germany is making rapid progress. Five hundred thousand men are said to be engaged in strikes there; the majority of them disclaim ell eympathy or con- neolion with the Internationals, and vehemently denounce Karl Marx and the association. It ia confidently asserted in Berlin circles that the Imperial Government, probably from a desire of rushing oonoeastons in time and with a good graoe, will grant the demands of tho trades unions in the governmental establishment, while Biamarck is to lay a hill beforo the Bicbstag, bestowing the profits of all companies above's oertain per oentage upon the laborers and work ingmen of the establishments. We can hardly realise that the government should have oon- aented to such far-reaching concessions, thongh it is generally conceded that something must b«done tosatiafythejoat demand* of the woik ing ul.nves, it a nooial rcvulnticn, grander than any movement on record, shall not the whole existing social order. The Reichstag is atill discussing the budget. On the second reading of the Navy Estimates bill, von Booo, Minister of War, declared that it was the purpoee of the government to eetab- uah a naval power of the seoond rank only. Tbo bill for creating an Imperial war fund of forty million thalers waa passed. Owing to the recent exciting debates in the Jbere is great politioal agitation in bpun. The Republican deputies have isaned a circular advising their supporters throughout the county to preserve the peace and maintain B Jbiio <»d*r. The strike of the Cakers and yets in Valensia has become so threatening in*t reinforcements were sent to the city. . supplies are about to be ftiiippta to Cabi. Tut key continues her reforms. In tbe Min istry of Finance four thousand superfluous offl- SgragS»SBK2Sfi: million Piasters. Similar retrenchments have been made in all branches of the public service. Many of the offloers thus suddenly turned out without any raeonrcea of their own, had held their positions for quite a number of years. To provide for them, the government has decreed that a pension fond be formed by deducting five per oent. from the aaUriee of all public officers.

For nearly half a century the Georgia Telegraph and the Georgia Journal and Messexger, either separately or united, have been the great orgaus of general intelligence to this and the contiguous sections of Georgia and Alabama. In all the varied social, civil and political experience of this region during that extended and momentous period in its history, these old Journals have been the constant and familiar visitors of thousands of households in this vast area of country, and have numbered their readers and patrons by successive generations. In the whole scope of this great Agricultural section of two of the most important Cclton States, the fortunes of these journals have varied simply with the varying fortunes of the people, and to-day their cir culation and hold upon the public confidence and estimation have never been exceeded at any period in their long history. Indeed, as the demands upon newspapers became yearly more exacting—the expen ses of publication increase and concentration of capital and labor be come more indispensable, so, we are glad to say, our circulation and influence increase with equal steps. The former have multiplied more than tenfold in the last twenty years, and the circulation and business of the Telegraph and Messenger have increased in the same propor tion. We rejoice to believe that in no section of the United States is there a newspaper possessing a more complete occupation of its pecu liar field of circulation than do the various editions of the Telegraph and Messenger, within that whole region of country to which it can early the earliest intelligence. Its circulation in gross we suppose to be not exceeded by that of any newspaper in the Carolinas, Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, with perhaps a single exception, but its cir culation ill its appropriate and particular field, is without an approxi mating rival. These arc the circumstances and this the condition which make the Telegraph and Messenger such a remarkably good Advertising Me dium. There is scarcely a family or individual doing business with Macon, within a radius of two or three hundred miles around the city, who docs not read the paper, so that an advertisement in its columns reaches all eves. The Macon merchant can scarcely add a greater publicity to his business, among people who can trade with him, after he has advertised in this paper. The Northern or Western merchant or manufacturer can rely on the fact that by advertising in this paper he will address the whole mercantile, professional and agricultural population of this large area, and need go no further for that purpose. We are frequently in receipt of testimonials from advertisers of all classes as to the peculiar value of this qgwspaper as an advertising medium. And we are ready to place these advantages at the disposal of the public on the most reasonable terms compatible with our expenses and circulation. Our policy is to encourage advertising by moderate charges; but it must be obvious to every man of common sense that we cannot multiply copies of advertisements by thousands, for the same price that others can furnish them by scores and hundreds. This point is better understood in the great commercial centres where ad vertising is valued and paid for precisely according to the scale of cir culation—where one paper will be cheerfully paid three dollars a line and another five cents a line for the same advertisement, according to their measure of circulation. The first furnishes paper, press-work and circulation for a hundred thousand impressions, and the latter pcrh«aps for a few hundreds. The contracts have all the difference which exists between a pound and hogshead of sugar; but both, it may be, print and circulate a merchant’s address to the public for less than half what a corresponding number of circulars or handbills would cost, which could have no other circulation than they might obtain from a range of limited personal acquaintances and mere fugacious personal efforts. There can be no cheaper or better method of ad vertising than through the columns of a popular, widely circulated newspaper, which by long habit and association has become the daily source of information to all within the scope of country which fur nishes the trade of its commercial centre. All other expedients to communicate with the people are comparatively inefficient and value less. We place the Telegraph and Messenger before the public, as efit of tbe Mercantile Library at San Francisco, lias been appointed agent aud manager of this Grand Gift Conoert. The dratting and distribution will take place in public, and everything will bo done to satisfy tbe a certa in, popular, and unrivalled medium of advertising communica tion with all that part of Georgia and Alabama which looks to Macon for its market or for the earliest news.

It is designed to contain a full and connected history of the week, and although its great size is complained of by some, yet we find the whole space essential to the grand design of the paper. A family in possession of this paper need be ignorant of no important event in the world’s current history, or miss any important idea or discovery of the times. In State news it covers the whole ground and gives all current events of importance in every county of Georgia. It also furnishes an invaluable original summary of foreign news—and gives the latest market advices from eveiy commercial point. This paper is a universal favorite of the Georgians who have emigrated to Texas and other distant points, and in this way its cir culation is coextensive with the United States and is, in fact, scattered over foreign countries, Wcfeel that so invaluable a paper, large as its circulation is, has never yet attained the full measure of its deserts, Will not its readers everywhere interest themselves in extending the sphere of its useful ness? The price of the paper is three dollars per annum, but if any reader has a mind to add another new subscriber to the list, he may remit five dollars, and we will send the paper to the new subscriber and add a year to'his own account. THE SEMI-WEEKLY TELEGRAPH AD MESSENGER Is a compact paper with few advertisements, and furnished twice a week. We most particularly recommend this edition to those who have more than one and less than six mails a week In this connection we call attention to the propositions at the head of the first column in this edition.
