BUSINESS OF SAVANNAH.

Trade-The Business Prospects for
the Future-The Morning News is
tho Proper Medium OF Communicat-
Ing the Business Affairs of ssVen-
| nah.
The business men Of Savannah have good
reasons for being sanguine regarding the
increased volume Of trade which will be
offered to them in the near future.
After the comparatively dull times OF the
past twelve months, caused in a material
degree by the low prices OF cotton, the over
production OF naval stores, the many
changes and unsettled affairs OF certain rail-
road companies and general depression
throughout the country, the great CONNER
cial emporium of the South Atlantic is now
on the verge of greatly increased prosperity
with a future unrivaled by any city in the
south.
| Savannah is of no mushroom growth. A
steady increase In the values of real
estate, the building OF lines of electric
railways which have developed its subur-
ban resorts and extended the city's growth,
the large number OF elegant business houses
and residences that have been erected, are
all substantial evidences Of firm and healthy
prosperity.
1t is almost unnecessary TO call attention
to the great advantages offered by the
extending Of the new railroads to this inn
portant commercial center. The Savannah,
Americus and Montgomery railroad has
already demonstrated its great value to this
city in the way OF business which has been

and the merchants Of the entsrprising towns
along the line Of the "Sam."
The South Bound railroad is proving its
value to the city far beyond the expecta-
tons of our merchants. The towns along
the line are increasing in importance,
and the country tributary &c it is
being steadily developed. Savannah is
naturally the center of attraction,
and Savannah will get the business
provided the merchants encourage the
commercial relations necessary to secure
it. This railroad is to be extended into
Florida during the coming season, making
another through line by way Of this city to
the north and west from all points in Flori-
da.
The trade along the Inns of the Central

Western railway is steadily increasing.
Southwestern Georgia and Florida recog-
, nize Savannah as the commercial center Of
, the southeast
Now that Savannah Is to have deep water
from the city to the Atlantic ocean, and will
have harbor that will accommodate the
largest vessels ahoat, her commerce will
greatly increase. The "26-foot project" will
be progressing rapidly before this year ex-
pires, and will be adding to Savannah's
, commercial importance.
By the cooperation Of the business men
Of this city in securing more manufaotHr-
ing enterprises the promotion of the welfare
Of our people will be assured.
The reports from the farming districts
through Georgia, Florida and South Caro-
lima make q very favorable showing. The
farmers throughout the country are en-
couraged and look forward to a more pro-
ductive year than usual. The trade will
open early aud actively.
The MORNING NEWS and the WEEKLY
NEWS are the great advocates and impor-
, tant agents Of the people, and through the
columns Of these valuable journals the COM
mercial affairs, resources and general news
is heralded to the world. 1t is an impor-
tant business duty of every merchant of
Savannah at the opening of this auspicious
busy season to inform the farmers and mer-
