The Future of the Advertiser. 

The Proprietor of the SAVANNAH DAILY ADVERTISER takes pleasure in announcing that he has, in accordance with a previously expressed determination, made arrangements for the further enlargement of the paper. The increase in size will take place as soon as the new press now ordered, can be received, probably about the middle of February. 
In connection with the enlargement, a change will be made in the condition of THE ADVERTISER. It will be published as a subscription paper, at the low price of $8.00 per annum, or at the same rate for shorter periods. 
The proprietor takes this occasion to return his sincere thanks to the many friends who have so liberally patronized the enterprise. The success of the little sheet has been far beyond his expectations, and in raising it to the size and style of other dailies, he is encouraged by the approval of those upon whose good judgment he can rely. An experience of many years in the newspaper business in this his native city, warrants him in promising a commercial and general newspaper that will be acceptable not only to the merchant and business man, but to every family. It will contain all the latest Telegraph News, carefully prepared and reliable Reports of the Markets, a complete Shipping Record, and a summary of general news, condensed into short and readable paragraphs, thus avoiding the necessity of laboring through long articles for a few items of interest. In short, it is the intention of the proprietor to make THE DAILY ADVERTISER second to none as a live newspaper, and neither pains nor expense will be spared to accomplish this result. 
Persons in South Carolina, Florida and Georgia, wishing to subscribe, can address the Proprietor, Key Box 42, Savannah, Ga. 
THE ADVERTISERS will be continued on its present plan until our arrangements are completed. Meanwhile, we invite all who desire to do so, to come forward and give us their names as subscribers. GEO. N. NICHOLS, 
Proprietor.

Agent for Massey, Collins & Co., Brewers, Philadelphia.
It is unnecessary to say anything regarding the quality of my Ale, its reputation was well established long before the war, throughout the whole of this State, and a large portion of Alabama and Florida. This Ale is brewed expressly for me at an [[?]] cost, and the subscriber flatters himself that with twenty one years experience in the business in this city, he knows what kind of Ale is best suited for this market. My cellars are the best in the city; that, together with my knowledge of the management of Ale, enables me to ensure my friends of a constant supply the year round.
