Will maintain the repnu-.tion it has already won as
the leading southern dally. The particular'foatucos
which havo given it a popularity that might alim st
he termed Bpecial, will not only be chntinned, but

ed, but Uut 10 the extent of tediousuess. The po
litical “leader” will be ha jpiiy relieved by light es
says upon social aud literary themes, aud by
piquant paragraphed comments upon cuirent
events.
The enterprise of the Constitution in gathering
and placing before it3 leaders the latest and frcsii-
est intelligence from all parts of the world, which
"has been .frequently illustrated of late ou special
occasions, wuen’events of ape ial interest were
transpiring, and which has been made the subject
of congratulatory comment by both press and
people, will suffer no abatement. Tile natural ad
vantages of the location of the Constitution at the
political, commercial aud news centre of the state,
together with t ic special facilities that are thu out
growth of energy, experience aud ample resources,
will bo utilised for the benefit of its readers. Its
dispatches are aupe iorto those of any daily news
papers south of Nashuilie, and its Slews is fuller
and fresher, la this respect the <_o istitutiun has
no rival in Georgia.
It will be tiic aim of the editors in future, as it
has heon in thu past, to make their paper in every

gia’s greatness, and a fiaithiul, vigorous aud un-
swerxing champion of Georgia’s interests.
