WYANDoTT.-This is another OF the new
counties which the federalist created in
the confident expectation that it would
worship at the shrine of econ idols. Here
as well as in Defiance, they have been
disappointed! Instead Of carry ing every
thing their own way, the federal wings
have lost all but one Commissioner! Ii
was tight contest TO be sure, but so much

Railroad to the Pacific.

MIR. A. Whitney, who has proposed to Con-
press to build rairoad from Lake Michigan
towards the Pacific ocean, has been exploring
the country for route. Letters from him
have been published IN the New York papers,
announcing that he has found the country
more favorable for railroad than he anticlpa-
ted He has traversed the country through
which he proposes to build railroad, as far
west as the great bend of the Missouri, or
about 500 miles to the west of the Msslssip
pi. In describing the country, he says
From Prairie du Chen to the Missouri, we
passed over q distance of more than 500
miles; the richest and most beautiful part of
nil creation, abounding in coal, iron and most
excellent building stone, lime and plaster;
but as If nature seemed unwilling to destr oy,
or in the least mar, face SO beautiful, all
these are hidden under the earth, and only
show themselves where the water has
washed the bluffs, at the banks of the many
rivers The surface all through, is almost a
level, undulating just sufficient to let off the
water. All this vast wilderderness, without
the habitation of man, produces the finest
grass for cattle, and when cured, fine hay
No country is better watered; streams all
brldgable at small comparative expense, ex-
cept the great, the grand Mississippi and Mis-
souri; and have found places where those
two mighty streams can be bridged. All that
the settler wants here, is the plough, seed
the scythe and sickle; country made not on
ly for the garden, but for the grand thorough
fare of the vast world; and can we, when we
have the ways and means without cost or ex
pense, hesitate for moment, to make the
whole world tributary to us-to draw its vas
commerce into our lap-to provide home
for, and to educate to industry and virtue
millions of our fellow men, who are now il
ignorance, nakedness and starvation! Ever,
day see more and more the extent of bene
fits, not only to our country, but to all man
kind, from this great work; and also see m.
way more clear for It's accomplishment, an
feel more sure of success
In another letter he says:-'If can get tn
grant of lands, eau build the road. In
few months after the grant, the work shall b
commenced; and far sooner than | bad dare
to hope, the work can be completed
Mr.. Whitney is man of great wealth.
The grant of land he wants, is strip twent
miles wide along the proposed route of tn
railroad.

a Fortune by Marrying Three
Sisters.

cAstCtos
A story is told Of the newly elected SEN
ator from the river counties 10 our Leg
sla,ure, which shows that he is good a,
holding on 10 good cause. A few years
age, he courted and married young lady
who had two sisters, possessing among
them, a large fortune. His wife died and
by some means her share Of the property
did not fall to him, BIT remained 10 pos.
session Of the tow surviving sisters. lie
courted aud married the second one, who
in the mean time, had arrived at woman
hood. BY her lie had one child; ST on after
she, ,o,, died and it was SO arranged tina,
the properly remained with the other Sis
fer and his own ehild; neither could come
in possession of it Til this adsPring was o'
age. In the mean time the third sister
came TO maturity. What did our hero &c
but court and marry her. "He didn't do
any thing else!" and is now in possession ol
the whole fortune originally left to the
three sisters! Ifany one doubts this singu'
lar and romantic story they will find ii fully
confirmed by inquiripg 10 Scioto Go. The
late election has placed him in the senate
of our growing State, and il he looks after
he n interests with the assiduity he did after
his own, he will doubtless prove the most
valuable member who takes his seat at
Columbus this winter.-Cia. Com.

OSPECTUS
For TnE
Democratic Pioneer.

Now Published in Upper sandusky.
THE undersigned, believing it to be for the
welfare and better organization of the DEM
ocratlc party, is desirous Of publishing paper
in the above named place, which in politics,
will be thoroughly Democratic; hile at the
same time much other interesting matter will
appear in it. 1t will be published every week,
and as far as possible, contain the latest In
telligence.
In taking the responsibility of publishing a
paper, practice has made it necessary to give
an avowal of the principles by which it " i'll
be governed, and in SO doing, it IS deemed suf
icient when we say: it will be devoted TO
principles which guarantee to every man,
equal protection, equal privileges, and uni
versal lberty,-holding the doctrine that all
men are alike worthy of protection, so long as
the doctrine of freedom and equality are pro-
fessed to be the governing principles of oul
happy land---without distinction betw cen rich
or poor. Believing such were not the gov.
erning principles Of the majority in our State
Legislature last winter, we shall be found bat
tleing against all such men and measures.
1t is the Intention of the editor to be per
fectly free and uncontrolled by any man o.
set Of men; and always willing to receive thu
counsel of such as are desrous of promotin,
the good cause for which it is published t
vindicate, as the advice Of many is more like
ly to be correct than the few.
The full desire being, to print sheet trul.
and wholly Democratic, we not only take OH
own opinion, but also the opinions of the II
lustrious who have promulgated Democratic
principles from the earliest dawn Of our rep
ublcan government!
The mechanical branch Of the PAPER vii

OF The Hamilton Telegraph contains the
following sentimental remarks, in relation to
the Oregon question::
''Let no one SUPPOSE because the wes-
tern press has no. been clamerous on tlis

deep and lively interest in its dec;sion.--
We have been comparatively quiet. be.

and fully comp rehends the unalterable de-
'cisien of the people on this question.

we cf the west are ready to maintain, II
need be, with our lives. In this We know
that we speak the sentiments Of the great
body of our people. More than four thou
sand of our citizens are now 10 Oregon,
engaged in the cultivation Of the soil.-
They are demanding the protection OF
American laws. Who wilisay this demand
is unreasonable, and ought not TO be gram
ted! Is not the citizen standing upon the
remotest frontier Of the Unions entitled
to the same protection which is extern
ded to us! II tie American government
has become so weak that il cannot protect
all its citizens within its own territory,
il is time TO abandon il; il is not worth
preserving, 10 the meanwhile the Brit
isb government is constantly increasing
its pow er, and extending It's military posts
over the territory. British tribunals have
been established, and American citizens
held amenable to their laws Shall this
thing be tolerated! Are we 10 fold our
arms, and negotiate this question until we
are placed in a position where dissracefnl
submission is the inevitable result!
The west now demands, in voice
which can not be misunderstood, that this
question shall be speedily settled. Our
people are now watching with intense
anxiety the action of the Executive and
Congress, on the subject. Let President
Polk Recommend the extension of our
democratic institutions over Oregon, with
out delay, and he Will be enthusiastically
sustained by the gallant sons Of the west
Let Congress promptly carry out his re-
comm nd ations, and il, in giving P'otec-
ton to our people, the country is invol'
we'd in war, our patriotic sors-!nured
to Lardships and familiar with danger

Brandreth's Vegetable Universal Pills.

BE wise. No time must be lost by the
use of foolish remedies, such as bleeding,
or mercury, for they both only rut off the
evil day to make il more fatal. Even in
infammatory diseases, bleeding ought ne>
yer 10 be resorted to, for in nine cases out
of ten it will take away the power of ma
ture to effect the cure, even when aided
by Brandreth's Pills. They can take out
the impurities from the blood, but alas!
they cannot put new blood into the body,
this requires time, but they can regener-
ate old blood, but the old blood must be
there. 1t is at all times easier 10 eradi.
cate mercury from the system and restore
the mercurialized being to full health than
it is TO affe ct the restoration Of a man who
has repeatedly been bled. Bleeding and
the effects Of opium are the greatest an
tagonists the Brandreth's Pills have TO
contend aga inst. Let us therefore be
wise, and when sickness assails us, ab.
s,ract the disease out Of the blood mot the
blood out of the body which bleeding does.
| Now, Brandreth's Pills not only puriies
the blood, but they lessen the quantity at
the same time they make the quality bet
ter They only take the worn out parts
from the blood, those which, If retained
would be a source Of disease. The good
effects which are derived from Brandreths
Pills have 10 be felt to be believed. The
seeds of decay can be constantly eradica'
ted by their use, and the Principle of
Life--the Observation-Disclosures. Thus
