Telegraph & Messenger. SATURDAY MORNING. DEO. 2, 187T. Urnnd Jnry Presentment* or «lnlt- ninn t'onnly. We, the Grand Jurors, chosen, sworn and se lected tor the November Term, 1871, of <JnlU Superior Court, beg leave to make the fol- *° We^find'Se booka°f the Ordinary and Clerk of the Court kept in a neat and correct manner. The Court-bouae la in good repair. There are a few panes of glass wanting in some of the windows; but, on the whole, we think it unnec essary to make any recommendations in regard to the building, bat think the yard should be cleaned and the grass in the enclosure cut down. We Hod the jail undergoing repair and think, when ooinoleted. will be secure, the upper por tion albeit The lower story we do not think can be made sufficiently secure ss it now stands, bnt wa think the upper story will be sufficient for tho asfo keeping of prisoners. We bare examined the books of tho County Treasurer. No entry has been made by that offieer since the last session of the oonrt, in con sequence of the taxes not having bean paid over. Tho disbursements then exceeded the noeipts to the amount of about 9380.00, and at this body then approved the action of the Treasurer, we mske no recommendation, there having been no change in his account. The roods of tho county are reported to be in good condition, in fact, they are in better order than we remember to hare seen them for years, sod wa commend the Commissioners and others in charge, for thefaithfnl discharge of ibis doty. As there seems to be a good deal of disaatia- faction among the citizens of the county in oon- aeqoenoe of the failure of the Ordinary to re quire a bond for keeping up tho turnpike on l'ataula creek, we would recommend him in fu ture to require bond and security for keeping up public works from those to whom the con tract is awarded. We tender our sinoere thanks to His Honor, Judge Barroll, for bis uniform kindness end courtesy to our body, and commend him for the manner in which the hnsinees of the oonrt ia conducted. Our thanks sro also due to Solicitor General l’srker for bin polite attention to our body. We recommend the publication of these pre sentments in the Haoon Daily Telkompti asp E. B. BaAmtos, Foreman.

The dis franchisement of o large number of our ablest and heat citizens has deprived the State of the benefit of their servioes when she sorely needed them; and a deep disgust at the conrso which eventa havo taken in tha last few years bss driven many olhora from public life who bsve character and capacity, ileclor is dead, and AohlUea is moping moodily in his tent, and the arena which they illnstrated with great deeds iB occupied by those who cannot wield the weapooa or bear the heavy armor which they wore. Idiots and itinerants—adventurers and “nvsila- bles"—non-residents and negroes—have been teen so often in Georgia, during the supremacy of tho Radical party, in places of trust and power, that wo, the Democratic people of Georgia, havo inaensibly lowered our standard of qualification for office, and accept with favor tho candidacy of individual now whoso candi- daoy before the war would have !>een received with a about of derision. Hodioorit; bsa had its day. •• Loyalty” has hud its roward. Venal ity and oorrapUon have bad their apotheosis. Let us tako a new departure, which shall bring us back into tha way our fathers trod by placing capable and honest men in office. This recon structed State, which ean hardly be recognized as the proud Oonimonwoslth of Georgia—this old bulk of our onoo proud “Ship of State'.' dis masted and dismantled, with rudder and ootn- paaa gone, has not reached quiet waters yet, and needs the ooolest heads and the bravest hearts and the most skillful bands among her crew to ssve her. Bollock oonfeiwes his guilt—tor flight is oon- fosaion—and slmoonds. Let ns reap the fall benefit of his flight by placing a Democrat iu tbo position ho bss so long degraded and dis- graood, who will restore the reputation of the State, redeem its credit, and exercise its Execu tive powers with dignity, ability and honesty. Milton Smith, tho Speakor of the llonsa, ia that Democrat. He is honest, nnd capable, and able, and eligible. lie has had the stern discipline of poverty and has grown into a strong man under it—strong in body, strong in mind, strong in will and strong in principle, lies red by bniuhle and honest parents in Monroo county, nnd com- mencing his professional career in Onlloden. where his first forensic efforts were made, within hearing of the ring of bis fathers hammer upon tha anvil, bo has grown slowly and steadily nnttl to-day he is recognized by all who know him as one of the ablest lawyers and one of tbo most gifted orators in tjjo State. Without a particle of the cant of domagoginm he may be said to be one of the people. Let the people honor him by making him the standard-bearer of tho De mocracy In the approaching Gubernatorial elec tion without reference to the plana of politicians or the combination of cliques, and be will re- oeiva tha enthnaiaslic support of Democratic masses, especially iu Middle Gboboia. J. Ai Anslry mill Mr. Speaker Smith unit the Legislative t'oiiiinlltee*. Editors Telegraph and Messenger.- I see that one Mr. J. A. Ansley, perhaps, for the purpose of showing GoL Smith that ho r(collects an old aaaa in oonrt, in which the iaitor'a ability as an attorney proved rather damaging to A'a kins man, or may bo, to himself; or perhaps again, he may have a candidate for Governor who is rather weak, and dog-in-the-manger like he may be wanting to pull down also Col. Smith, or anyone else in Southwestern Georgia; or per haps again Mr. A. may want to show his “lam ing" and get a little notoriety. Something very moving must be the matter with him, for all at ones we have a “Daniel oome to judgment.'’ An Individual that few, if any, over heard of before, outside of his militia heat, Solon or Solomon Uka—writes about that of which he knows nothing. While every member of the Legislature, or other person that has three grams of sense, knows that Chairmen of Com mittees only differ from other members by re porting to a larger body or the public wbat the whole committee adopts or agree to, and that said chairman has no more power or influence on that. eommiUee than any other member of equal ability and labor, yet this second Daniel, or rather aeoond Solomon, In his own conceit, has found out that a chairman of a committee is a very important piece, and aaaails and mis- reproaonta Col Smith—charging him with not doing jostioe to hia own section and his own people. As “A Member” has saffidenUy (and more than sufficiently) expoaed Mr. A.'* state ments, I will go no farther than to say that ad mitting saII that Mr. A. says about the Chairmen be true, yet every one who will look ever the various most important eommitieoa will at ©noe see that Southwest and lower and Middle Geor gia, all identical ia Interest, have the controlling, power or the majority in all these committees. And what more would any fair man in South western Georgia desire 7 I know Col Smith well, and am satisfied that in forming his committees he did not lock to giving any one particular interest, or say one particular section an advantage over •h* °*£,® r ’ but it happens that Southwest, lower and Middle Georgia, having more members than any any other portion of Georoia-they have the majority on tho committee*. Iu ooneUatoo, I would say that reliable in formation from Atlanta, represents CoL Smith aa vary Popular with members from every sec tion of the State, and that he is by long odds 0 living in wertandSooth- west Gerngla. Southwestern Georgians are proud of him, and should he be nominated and sftMtad Governor, all of ns will rejoice, except **“ * nd **“ osndrdato, who he is no doubt writing tor. Boctbwtst Geobc.ia.

For uearly half a century the Georgia Telegraph and the Georgia Journal and Messenger, either separately or united, have been tlio great organs 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 aud familiar visitors of thousands of households in this vast area of country, and have numbered their readers and patrons by successive generation* In the whole scope of this great Agricultural section of two of the most important Cotton 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 morv than tenfold in the last twenty years, and the circulation and busine* • 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 carry 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 in its appropriate and particular field, is without an approxi mating rival. These are 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 citv who does not read the paper, so that an advertisement in its columns reaches all eyes. The Macon merchant can scarcely add a greater publicity to his business, among people who can trade with him, after lie 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 newspaper as an advertising medium. \ And wo are ready to place these advantages at tho 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 perhaps 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 a certain, 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.

St. Louis, THE WEEKLY TELEGRAPH & MESSENGER Is an immense sheet, 38x52 inches in size and containing fifty-six col umns. It is designed to contain a fuU and connected history of the week, aud although its great size is complained of by some, yet wc 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 aU 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 every 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, - We feel that so invaluable a paper, large as its circulation is, has never yet attained the fuU 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.

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 tills edition. With the approaching year we enter upon the canvass for the next Presidency—an event fraught with momentous results to the South, and which cannot fail to awaken absorbing interest among the people. The progress and conclusion of this grand event, wiU be chronicled with particular care by the Telegraph and Messenger, and aU the questions and facts which affect its result wiU receive very careful at tention. We hope all our readers and patrons, old and new, wiU assist us in increasing the circulation and usefulness of all our editions. CLISBY' JONES k REESE. Macon, November 21, 1871..
