PROSPECTUS.
VENE undersigned proposes TO pmblish in the city of
Il Baltimore, newspaper to be called
THE PILOT:

Born and educated in the West he has known Gene
raj Harrison personally and been familiar with his pub
lie life since the Commencement of the He has
known Mr. Van Buren, and closely observed his
since 1886.
The chief inducement TO resume the arduous and res
ponsible duties of Editor is the hope that he may
contribute something towards the election OF Gene
raj Harrison The fidelity, ability, rmness and moder-
alton with which that eminent citizen has discharged the
most responsible and difficult public trusts-hs unexam-
pied popularity as the chief magistrate OF the Territories
N. w. OF the Ohio-the unimpeached integrity of his
public life his amabe, courteous and dgnifed respect
fer the laws aud public opinion, guarantees thst, If
elected he will bring into the administration faithful
competent and honest men who will devote all the con-
stituonal means of the Government to restore conf
dence and thus revive the industry, enterprise credit
and prosperity of the Conntry now paraized by I'M
faithful and incompetent public agents.
The PILOT will review the course OF the present adj
minstraton, and discuss freely the fraudulent specula
ons in the public Hands and their connexion with the
subsequent warfare on the banking institutions Of the
country. In doing this the present and the past admis-
straton will be identified, and their measures examined
and conrased, the present nexampled condition of
the country, the in which il originated, and the
inevitable consequence OF continuing power in the same
hands will be boldly and faithfully treated.
The undersigned believes that the Federal Govern
ment is compact between the States intended, by
more perfect union to haImonse, as far possible,
what would otherwise have been at conflict between To-
cal nterests-and that this is less duty than the
protection OF our foreign commerce. The benefits to
flow from well directed system of Internal Improve
InentS, WnetHer IL De considered OF defence
IN case OF INVASION, or nsurrection of conveying the
products of the interior to market TRBNsPoRT-
ING THE MAIL, are SO palpabe that the only objections
heretofore urged against appropriations 10 that object,
have been made by those who denied the power OF the
Federal Governments by others who, admitting the
power denied the expediency under the existing state
of the Treasury. The undersigned believes that the
Federal Government may, by permanent contracts with
rail road companies for the transportation of the mail
and troops and munitions of war the leading routes
ofuave, accomplish general system of Internal Inn
provemens and will enforce the proprety of doing So
and cudo avor 10 show how this may be done by
ghtened use of the public credit;-and also TO deveope
the incidental advantages to flow from such measure
by sustaining the credit of the States and thus restoring
public and private confidence.
Baltimore is central, and in some respects, the best
point at which TO concentrate political intelligence
Should the expectations of the Editor be realized, the
Pilot will become the medium of diflusng the inieli-
gence thus concentrated and whatever earnest zeal,
experience, and unceaslDg industry do, will
be done to render it acceptable, as Commercial, Sci
entifc, Literary and Miscellaneous, well poit
cal newspaper-lt will treat political opponents with
candor and fairness, but will be firm and decided in
support of the men, the measures and the principles
whose support may be identified with the welfare of the
counry and if in doing this it shall be necessary to
Tealiae, carry the "war into Africa" will be
done--he Editor will not faer in the discharge of his
