wide circulation IN our Western exchanges.

ser gives ii special importance thus;
I'VE conclude today sihe publication Of

Harbor Convention. We need not ask our
readers TO preserve and read IT, 1t is docu-
ment of vast importance 10 the people OF the
Lake regions. Ii elnanated, as DR. Bragg says
from a well ''balanced head, and therefore
deserves more attention. It gives, in an ex-
traordinary clear lucid style, the views OF the
Locoloco candidate for President on ques-
ZION Of great importance to our readers, and
as il contains the only declaration OF opinion
on the question which he ever made, II de-
serves 10 be remembered.

PROSPECTUS
FOR THE
Democratic Pioneer.

We are desrous of extending the circula-
ton of our paper, and in order to do so, we
call upon all our friends for their assistance
The county of Wyandot is yet new and but
thnly settled, and to keep upa paper in this
place, it Is necessary to make great exertions,
and to this end we invite and call upon every
fiend to lend US his aid on the present occa-
sion. Will you do it!
We have endeavored to render our paper
as interesting and worthy support as the cir
cumstances would admit, and how far we
have succeeded is for our patrons to say. Our
exertions shall not cease here, for we intend
to at least to try and print a paper that will
merit and receive living support. 1t is a
difficult matter to make paper as interesting
i" here the support is so very limited as it has
been here, as it might otherwise be. Then
to render the paper interesting, let US have
your support. We commenced the publca-
ton under no very encouraging circumstances
and have kept up our paper with very great
difficulty, and now wish our friends to give US
little more aid.
1t is our intention TO give all the latest and
most interesting news we can, miscellany
" ar and political.
The DEMOCRATIC PIONEER, 1t may
be expected while in our hands, will be free
from every thing like control by any man or
set of men other than the editor, fearing no
threats, and being free from any combination
other than the party with which it is connected.
1t will advocate the same doctrines that have
heretofore appeared in it, being Democratic
in every particular.
With our position before you, we ask for
your support and aid to increase our subscrip-
tion. We will see in short time what can
and will be done.

The paper will be published weekly,
per year, if paid in advance, at -. So 90
