Ost. 18 tds* AroLOGETicA!. —Owing to the ab j Renee of one of our principal hands we are still bellied our regular schedule time. We are doing the best we can un der the circumstances, and hope our friends will extend a little indulgence for our shortcomings. A Daily Paper—To Our Patrons. Every day, the question is asked us when do we intend to start a daily.— There seems to ho a great desire on the part of our citizens to have a daily in Americus. The publication of a daily paper is attended with considerable ex pense and labor, and to sustain it there must necessarily boa large amount of local patronage. We are willing to do our part of the Work, if oiir citizens will do theirs. Americus is fully able to sus tain a daily, and she owes it to herself to do so. Its influence in promoting trade and giving the city character abroad, cannot be over-estimated. Let every one then desiring a daily, come forward and subscribe for it at once.— Let every merchant doing business, put in a liberal advertisement. There is no reason why such a paper canilot ho sus tained in Americus. Should We meet with sufficient encouragement, we prom ise to furnish our patrons with tho very latest telegraphic news, eight hours ear lier than it can be furnished through any other channel. Every real estate owner, every merchant and every man who expects to live in this city, ought to lend his aid to -this enterprise. Tho Credit of our city abroad requires it— will they doit? In order to test tho matter, we pro pose to commence the daily, as soon as we obtain two hundred cash pay ivy sub scribers, at ten dollars each, and obli gate to carry it on one year, if life is spared. Let the friends of the paper go to work and secure that number. It can be easily done. The matter therefore is in the hands of our friends. It is for them to say whether they desire a daily or not. All who desire to subscribe will notify us at an early day. If the requi site amount of names arc not made up, the money will be refunded. Persons wishing to subscribe can leave their names and money at either of the stores of Furlow & Bao.; Adams, Barlow & Cos .; P. 11. Oliver & Bro • B. W. Smith & Cos.; G. M. llay, or Dr!

The City Clock.— We arc pleased to state that the contractors are progress ing finely on tills work, and that in a few days the clock will be ready to be put up. The workmen who have this in charge are determined to push tilings through to completion without delay. Success attend them. {ggp The citizens of Americus, especial ly the ladies, have long felt the need of a regular shoe store, where they could fit themselves without the trouble of sending home bundles of shoes, to the annoyance of themselves and the mer chant. P. 11. Oliver & Bro. have fitted tip comfortably and genteely a room in the rear of their store, where shoes and hosiery of every description can be obtained at very low- prices. Also Cloaks, Gloves, Nubias, &c., &c. Nov. 15. It. More Large Potatoes.— We thought the potatoes noticed in our last issue from Mr. W. T. Adams, was large enough in all conscience but they were small ones compared to a couple received on yesterday from Mrs. Sloan. We cut one of them up in four pieces and they filled a half bushel measure-. The iffeedman who brought them to the office told us that they had plowed up about a hundred bushels, and these two were the smallest. Asa curiosity, we would like to see one of the largest Mrs. S. will please accept our thanks for the small favor. SWEET OROPONAX !
