WEEKLY COURIER
will be the largest sheet ever issued in Georgia
The latter will be gotten up especially for Faml-
lies and for country readers. IL will have an ex-
tensve circulation in the interior counties, and
must therefore become most desirable medium
for advertisements.
The Courier will not be pa'tizan press. The
undersigned reserves to himself the right to praise
or censure the and measures of all parties,
and to do even-handed justice to all, regardless OF
their political associations He will wear no party
letters, but at the same time will never conceal his
preference and predictions.
In the present campaign he will favor the cleo
ton OF Messrs. Pierce and King, believing them
to be "honest, competent and faithful to the Con
stitution'-to be good Union, Compromise men
occupying good Union, Compromise platform
sustained by the conservatives of the North and
richly deserving the support of all parties at the
South.
He will also give cordial, hearty support to
the present Chief Magistrate of Georgia, believing
that his past acts, his present administration and
his devotion to the Unon entite him to the parise
of the wise and good, and will yet win for him
the confidence of the nation.
The undersigned deems it unnecessary to say
more. He is not unknown to the people of Geor-
gia, with whom he has held editorial intercourse,
and for whose kind and liberal patronage, hereto
fore bestowed, he is profoundly thankful. He
has established the Courier upon apermanent basis
and is resolved to make it worthy of popular sup
port. The arrangements for local and foreign
news ample, and will be extended to meet the
utmost demands of the public. The first number
will be issued on the Goth inst, or as soon there
after as the necessary office arrangements can be
perfected. Post Masters and others who will
obtain subscribers and remit the money, will be
allowed the usual per centage for their trouble.
