Fit. 6ih 1852. CCjA Lockout fertile Dailv ! DJi, We publish in our paper of to day the act incorporating the city of Ogle thorpe. Its great lengtli will account for the Den-appearance of oilier matter. Fine Cigars, We were presented a day or two since with a lot of very fine Cigars by Messrs. Sims &Cos As it it always expected that an acceptable present to an editor should e|gii a puff, we forthwith fell to puffing its good earnest, which naturally drew us to the conclusion that R. H. , Sims §: Co’s Cigars were not only wor thy tobe puffed by an editor, but all who delight to enjoy the luxury of a fine Pnbana. Messrs Sims Ik Cos. have 50,000 of I lie saipe sort left, fresh and direct from Havana, and we would advise all who read this article to call and get a supply | and help ioptrjf them. ora* The Macon Journal h fffeisenge T of day before yesterdy contains the an nouncement of the withdrawal of S. T. Chapman from his connection with that paper, he having sold his interest to Mr. James T. Nishett, who will hereafter be associated with Mr. Rose in the manage ment of the Messenger. Mr. Chapman goes to Savannah to establish anew daily, tri-weekly and weekly. We pre sume from his last editorial before retir ing, he will espouse the cause of the mongrel parly that is now in process ol formation under the cognomen of “ Na tional Democratic party.’’ Fjre Proof Paint. R. H. Sims ik Cos., have uovv on hand a large lot of Fire Proof Paint, and we would advise all ourcitisens who would like in sleep sound at night, to use it.— Tbe very nature of our buildings and 1 their adjacent locality to papli other and the great want of effectual meaas to ex-! tinguish fire, renders it absolutely neces* i sary that the citizens of our city should ! gel about securing their buildings from 1 fire. We know of no cheaper and safer! means in the absence of an enjine, than the use of this fire-proof paint.
