Prospectus Of the
DAILY OHIO STATESMAN.

Az soon as the Telegraphic wires and the
apparatus for their use, are in operation in
this city, which will be in the course Of a
week or ten days, we shall issue the Ohio
Siatesman DAILY during the year, instead Of
during the session the Legislature only
The wonders ofscience have brought uswith-

with all parts Of the continent. Already
Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore.
Washington and Richmond, on the sea board,
Albany, Buffalo, Montreal, Canada, Pittsburgh,
and Wheeling, in the interior, are in connec-
iion by Telegraph. In a few days, Colum-
bus, the capital Of Ohio, will be attached TO
these cities, and news only few moments
old, and days in advance Of the mails, will be
issued here to the readers Of the Statesman.
Aud in few days longer we shall be connec-
ted by these wires with Zanesvile, Cleveland,
Detroit. Dayton, Cincinnati. Louisville, ST.
Louis, Nashville, and New Orleans. The
important news from all these remote regions
will be daily collected herein the capital
of Ohio, aud be disseminated through our
columns every evening. What change

is there foreign arrival, news from the ar
my, or any important eventi At once is II
here and spread before the people. Is there
an election? Instantly the result is known.
1t is true the expense will be very heavy;
greater, perhaps, than many printing estab-
lishmeuts can we'll bear. What the addi-
tional expense will be, we have not been able
to ascertain, but the editors Of the Wheeling
Argus speaking Of the same subject, say:
ave confidently appeal to our friends to sus-
tain US in our enormous expense OF nine
hundred to fifteen hundred dollars per an
mum, to procure the earliest intelligence
BY TELEGRAPH. Nothing but the NEST
prompt payment, and greatly enlarged sub
scription list, will do it," 1t cannot be less
here, but al the wires extend west and north
the expense must be much greater. We
are cheered by the daily inquiries from the
surrounding towns about this matter, and the
numerous promises Of additional subscribers.
The DAILY STATESMAN, in addition to the
Telegraphic and other news--our paper be-
ing issued at the seat of government--will
contain full reports Of Legislative proceed
ings, valuable to every citizen II not indis-
pensable, as well as reports of conventions OF
various kinds held only at the seat Of govern
ment---and reports Of decisions Of the Court
in Bank, and important cases in the United
States Courts. Being central, a very exten-
sise record and notice is keptin our columns
Of the political action Of parties in the coun-
ties and the earliest general result OF elec'
tions. These, without the addition Of Tele
graphic news, would make the Daily States
man valuable paper to those who desire
full and general news of the affairs OF the
State.
Though we shall issue our paper Daily du
ring the whole year at its present size, we
shall add only two dollars to the cost. The
Daily Ohio Statesman, therefore, will be
one ofthe cheapest papers in the Union, for
the amount Of matter il will contain. II
must therefore rely upon the increase o
patronage TO sustain the new, expensive, and
important character and position it is about
TO assume, under the application Of electrlci
~ to the conveyance of intelligence.
