Prospectus of the Ohio Statesman.

THE undersigned respectfully announce
Il to the Democracy or Otto, that they
have purchased of Col. SAMUEL MEDARY, all
his interest in the Ohio Statesman newspaper,
from and after the lst Of July, lS45. The
paper will,s as heretofore, advocate, unflin-
chingly, Democratic Principles and measures,
and give the strongest support 10 the regu-
larly nominated candidates of the Democratic
Party, that it will be in the power of the un-
dersigned 10 afford. To firmly support the
National Administration---toH maintain the
right ofthis country 10 the territory of Oregon
10 uphold the great doctrine of the sove-
reignty of the people, as contended for by
the patriot DoRR-to contend for the adjust
ment of the tariff in such manner as shall
do justice to the great Agricultural interest
of the West-to labor for the settlement Of
the National Finance question in a way that
shall prevent the public moneys from becom-
ing the means of individual aggrandizement
and to strenuously support any measure
calculated to make the laws of Ohio embodi-
mens Of the principles of Liberty and Equa-
| lity, and 10 give TO the State sound cur
rency;-:hese are the objects which the un-
dersigned propose 10 themselves in the new
and arduous position which they have as
sumed. Their success must depend upon
the amount and the character of the support
which they shall receive at the hands of the
Democracy of the great Empire State of the
West, whose voice in the National Councils
is so important, and whose example, in the
managementoftheir internal affairs, is destin-
ed TO exert vast influence upon all quar-
ters of the Union, and particularly 10 give a
character to the legislation of the new COM
munities which are constantly arising, and
demanding TO be admitted 10 the rights and
privileges enjoyed by the members of the
confederacy.
The undersigned have invested a large
amount of capital in their present undertaking.
They have brought TO its support, whatever
of talent and enterprise they possess. Their
interest is identical with that of the West;
and there is no incentive 10 exertion-no
motive which can incite men TO a faithful
discharge Of important duties--wbich is not
moving them to labor for the good of that
portion of the confederacy into whose hands
the physical and moral powers of the nation
are rapidly passing. Under these circum-
stances, they feel that they are privileged to
ask for that support and 10 look for that con-
6dence from the Democracy of Ohio, without
which all their labors must be worse than
performed in vain.
The undersigned propose making some
mechanical Improvements in the paper, which
will render it more worthy the support of the
public. A fair proportion of the paper will
be devoted to miscellaneous reading and
news matter.

The foremost still by day or night
On moated mound or heather,
Where'er the need of trampled right
Brought toiing men together,
Where ihe free burgher from the wall
Defed the mail-clad master;
Than yours, at freedoms trumpet call,
No craftsmen rallied faster!
Let foplngs sneer, let fools deride,
Ye heed no idle scorner,
Free hands and hearts are still YOUR pride,
And duty done, your honor.
Ye dare to trust for honest fame
The jury Time empannels,
And leave to Truth each noble name
Which glorifes your annals.
Thy songs, Hans Sach, are living yet,
In strong and hearty German,
And Bloomfeld's lay and Gfford's wit,
And th' rare good sense of Sherman;
Still from his book, mystic seer,
The soul of Behmen teaches,
And England's priestcraft shakes to hear
Of Fox's leathern breeches.
The Foot is yours: where'er il falls
1t treads your well-wrought leather,
On earthern floor, in marble halls,
On carpet, or on heather.
Still there the sweetest charm is found
Of matron grace or vestal's,
AS Hebe's foot bore nectar round
Among the old celestials

Coon ExAMPLE.-A man recently went to
Washington city to obtain office. He was
disappointed in getting one and his funds be.
ing exhausted he went TO work on the Avenue
among the laborers at one dollar day in or
der TO raise the wind. A public funclionary
observing that the fellow was worthy, hon
est and industrious man forthwith provided a
comfortable situation for him in a subordin-
ate office and he has now an easy and lucra-
tive berth.-Day. Trans.
The example would have been better, if
instead of expending his money in seeking
the ease of some subordinate station at
Washington, he had added to sum the expond-
ed in travelling there, by honest industry at
home. We would be gratifed to see this
insane craving for the crums of official
station more frowned upon than il is.

the bank. Over the door of the Mechanics
Bank is an arm, anda hand holding hammer.

GREAT ECLIPSE IN 1S06.-The following
fine description of the great eclipse of 1906
is from the pen of Mr.. E. s. Thomas, the
venerable editor of the Cincinnati Evening
Post:
II was our happiness to be at Providence,
Rhode Island, when the total eclipse of June,
1906, took place-the day was perfectly
bright-the phenomenon commenced be-
tween eleven and twelve o'clock, and after
the sun became totally obscured, it remain
ed so for more than half an hour Its ope-
ration upon animated nature was truely and
awfully sublime. The birds flew about in
every direction, in evident distress and ter
ror, the domestic fowls ran about in all d.
rections, cackling as in a fright. Horses gal
loped round their pastures neighing; while
the horned cattle, which seemed more af-
frighted than the rest, tore up the earth with
their horns and feet in madness-all this up
roar was followed by the silence ofmidnight,
when the eclipse was eompieted-tl,e birds
retired TO their resting places-tho fowls TO
their roosts, the horses to their stalls, and
che cattle to their hangers; while the stars
shone forth in their beauty, and all was still;
when the sun began TO re-appear large
number of musicians, students of Brown
University, assembled upon the terrace of
the College, and struck up Milton's Hymn
to Light. The effect was altogether sublime
and beautiful. Nothing that ever met our
eye, before or since, was equal to it.
