On the first of January, 1877, the Morn* ing News enters upon its twenty-seventh volume, and, it is hoped by the conductors, upon a prosperous year. Every reluming anniversary has witnessed its extending in f uence, and to-day it is the text of the po itical faith of thousands of readers.

In the future, as in the past, no pains will be spared to make the Morning News in every respect still more deserving of the confidence and patronage which has been so liberally extended to it by the people of Georgia and Florida. The ample means of the establishment will be devoted to the improvement of the paper in all its de partments, and to m iking it a comprehen sive, instructive and reliable medium of the current news. Its s*aff of special cor respondents—at Washington, Atlanta, Jacksonville, Tallahassee, and other points of interest—has been reorganized with a view of meeting every possible emergency that may arise, and pains will be taken to make its commercial news, foreign and do mestic, complete and reliable. As we are about entering upon the new year, we desire to call especial attention to our club rates of subscription. TOSTAGE FREE.

The grave issues before Congress ; the final settlement of the late Presidential election ; the incoming Congress ; the new President; the Policy of the new Adminis tration ; and future welfare of the country and people, are matters of great interest to each and every individual. Such a cri sis has not been presented since the Decla ration of Independence. A Truthful History of events, and do* ings of Congress will be given with impar tiality and fairness in the CINCINNATI ENQUIRER, a public spirited paper echoing the wishes of the people, advocating submission to the Laws, good Government, and the Rights of the People to be Heard upon all matters that pertair to the country’s welfare.

By subscribing for the Enqui rer, you will get a faithful record of events as they transpire, without Party Coloring and unbiased by Party feelings, as the true merit in a uewspaper is its ability and wil lingness to give the NEWS AS IT COMES, and not, as it is prepared by party dema gogues to mislead the people.
