We were much disappointed, yesterday in not
receiving further details of the scenes in The city
Of Mexico, for which the meagre notice in The
extra Picayune had Wheeled the public appetite.
Al the New Orleans papers came 10 hand, save
the Picayune and Delta. They, however. make
no reference TO he rumored death of Santa Anna
BY his own soldiery. The Bulletin contains the
following Interesting item, which is all lba, We
can find touching Mexico:
aPEAcE WITH MExIco.-We have seen letters
o, 7ih January, from The city Of Mexico, and
from parties having access 10 high sources Of in
formation, which express, in decided terms, a
belief thai the differences between the Two ma
lions will very speedily be amcaby and honor
ably settled"
While We are not satisfied of the truth Of San
Ia Annals rumored assassination, we cannot
doub, the reality OF distracted state Of affairs
in Mexico, consequent upon The attempt TO con-
fscae The property Of the Church, which, we are
inclined TO think, will produce a reaction in the
public mind against the war, and will induce The
Mexican rulers 10 turn their thoughts 10 peace
We moreover look 10 the concentration Of our
military forces preparatory 10 an attack on Vera
Cruz by sea and lard, as well calculated 10 ope-
rate upon Mexico, and induce her 10 enter into a
negotiation.

PROSP ECTUS
OF THE
Democratic Pioneer,
PubIishod i'm Upper sandusly.

Published in Upper Sandusky.
THE undersigned, believing it to be for the
welfare and better organization of the Dem
ocratc party, is desrious of ofpnblshing paper
in the above named place, which in politics
will be thoroughly Democratic; while at the
same time much other interesting matter will
and as far as possible, contain the latest in
tellgerice.
In taking the responsibility Of publishing a
paper practice has made it necessary to give
an avowal of the principles by which it will
be governed, and in SO doing, it IS deemed suf
6cient when we say: it will be devoted to
principles which guarantee to every man,
equal protection, equal privileges, and uni
versal liberty, y,--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 per-
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
yindicate, 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.
TERMS FsUBsC CRTPTIoN.
The paper will be published weekly,
per year, if paid in advance, at -. 50 90
IF not paid till the expiration, ...... 2 so
For six months, if paid in advance. 90
If at the expiration of six months, -. so
The above terms will be required, unless
the publisher sees fit to make other arrange
ments.a
Every Democrat in Wyandott and sur
rounding country, is constituted an agent, 10
gel al least one good subscriber.
