PROSP ECT US
OF THE
Democratic Pioneer,

Publish d in Upper sandusky.
THE undersigned, believing it to be for the
welfare and better organization of the Dem
ocratlc party, is desirious of publishing paper
in the above named place, which in politics,
will be thoroughly Democratic; while 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
paper practice has made it necessary to give
an avowal of the principles by which it will
be governed, and in 80 doing, it is deemed suf
ticlent 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 our
happy land---without distinction between 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 rer-
fectly free and uncontrolled by any man or
set Of men; and always willing to receive the
counsel of such as are desirous of promoting
the good cause for which it is published to
vndicate, as the advice of many Is more like
ly to be correct than the few.
The full desire being, to print sheet truly
and wholly Democratic, we not only take our
own opinion, but also the opinions of the IL
lustrious who have promulgated Democratic
principles from the earliest dawn of our rep
ublican government.
The mechanical branch of the paper will
be neatly executed.

SESSION PAPER FOR 1s4e--7.

The approaching session of the General
Assembly Of the State of Ohio, will be one
ofthe most lively interest. The difference
between the two parties has seldom been
80 strongly marked as during the late con-
test. They have avowed themselves dis>
tinctly In favor of widely different courses
ofpolicy, fonnded upon the most opposite
principles. The result has been drawn
battle,--the small vote makes it very
doubtful what would be the popular will
with a full vote. The Senate is tied. All
these circumstances make us await the
events Of the approaching session with
anxious expectation.
Some of the more reckless wings have
already hinted their intention to displace
the Senators from Stark and Wayne coun>
ties. If they make this attempt, the con,
test will be new thing in the history of
Ohio; the unwavering frmness of every
democrat will be tried; and we may look
for such base attempts at bribery and cor
ruption, as have taken place at the capital
ofPennsylvania.
Our labors will be directed to making
afaithful record Of that is done e,-to giving
reports Of legislative proceedings at once
full and concise. Our aim will be to avoid
the tedious detail of each trivial motion
and to make onr readers acquaintnd with
che actual progress Of legislation. We
will give an Ineligible history, and not
an unintelligible record Of motions. All
who take any interest in the welfare of the
State, should furnish themselves with this
information, land with SESSION PAPER
as the means of obtaing il.
Or We shall also give a summary Of the
proceedigs of C ongress. which will proba-
bly, contain much ofinterest upon the sub
cot Of annexiug new territory and OF
slavery,

Geological FdctS.-Some twenty or thirty feet
below the level of the plain around Richmond Va,
occurs one of the most remarkable depostcs in this
country. The place in which we have found it most
fully developed is where the small brook at the East
end and on the North side of Clay street empties
into Shocoe creek. On the bank OF that brook will
be seen stratum from to fifteen feet thick, which
most persons would call white clay; but Prof W. b.
Rogers of the University, (the State Geologst) has
ascerained that il is made up almost entirely OF the
skeletons Of dnindlctlG nfuSOriO-that is, mcros-
copic animals These skeletons, consisting of slick, are
incredibly SMALL that each cubic inch of this ntu
serial earth contains many thousand millions of them!
How inconceiyably numerous, therefore, must they
be- TO form deposte at least ten feet thick and
tending many miles over the adjoining country! II
has excited great interest among the learned
ralsts of Europe as well of our country, and
henceforth of them will visit Richmond without
at searching for this deposte Prof. Ehrenbcrg
of Prussia the most eminent of living microscopes
has examined specimens from this place, and disco
vered at least one hundred and thirty species q state
from recollection only OF these minutest of animals
in them To discover them in this almost impapa-
| Bile dust requires powerful microscope; and doubt
less therefore, many who look at specimens with the
naked eve will be very incredulous to these state
| mcnts But they are considered established facts
| by the scientific world.
| This substance may be distinguished from clay by
being much lighter when dry. 1t is not, indeed,
much heavier than magnesa, when pure. In other
parts of the world it is sometimes used for polishing
powder. From a slight trial, judge that the Rich
mond deposite would answer the same purpose. Be-
meath the nfusorial deposite is greenish blush
clay containing numerous sca-shells, rather casts
and moulds of them, with sharks teeth, &c; but
these, although of deep interest to geologsts, will
not excite much attention from others.
1t can hardly be doubted that, when this region
was covered by the ocean, the waters swarmed with
microscopic anmalcule, whose Skeletons as the ami
mails died, dropped to the bottom, and in the
of ages accumulated prodigously. But when we re-
collect how astonishly fast they multiply, we need
not suppose many centuries necessary procure
this extraordinary thickness.
