FOR 1873.
For nearly half a century the Georgia Telegraph and the Georgia
Journal and Messenger, either separately or united, have been the
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 daring 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 muni icrcd their readers and patrons by successive generations.
In the whole scope of this great Agricultural section of two of the
most imp. .rtant Cotton States, the fortunes of these journals have varied
simply with the varying fortunes of the people, and to-day their dr- GQ
culm ion 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-
i ion. We rejoice to believe that in no section of the United States is
thoro a newspaper possessing a more complete occupation of its pecu
liar field of circulation than do the various editions of the Telegraph
amd Messenger, within that whole region of country to which it can
r:trry 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 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 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
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,
Wc arc frequently in receipt of testimonials from advertisers of all
classes as to the peculiar value of this newspaper as an advertising
medium.
And wc 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 bo obvious to every man of common sense that
wc 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, whi6h 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, popnlar, 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.
THE WEEKLY TELEGRAPH & MESSENGER
Is an immense sheet, 3Sx52 inches in size and containing fifty-six col
umns. 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 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 thfe 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 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, bnt 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.

In this connection wc coll attention to the propositions at the head

With the approaching year we enter upon the canvass for the next
