are now reaping Tie benefit Of plank
roads. We have now extended from this
city four distinct lines OF plank roads
one extending 10 Boonville, on the north,
a distance Of ihirty-iwo miles one to
Bridgrwaier, about twenty miles to the
south, and soon 10 be extended twenty
miles farther; another TO Wsleryille, TWEEN.
~ miles southwest. and TO be extended
fifteen miles more TO Hamilton; and the
fourth extending westward TO Rome, six.
teen miles, and forming by junction with
others al Rome. an uninterrupted plank
road communication with The northern
parts of Oneida and Lewis counties, and
Lake Ontario and Salmon River in 0s
wego county. There are also severa
direct and lateral extensions Of this lin,
now in progress and in contemplation
which when completed will link the ex
IRENE southern counties of the State
and open and easy and rapid communi
cation between sections which have hi,h
erIo enjoyed but little intercourse will

All the plank rnads thai have been Pn
i'm operation in this State are doing q
prosperous and profitable business. The
roads in this section are reaping a rich
harvest Of toll. We mentioned a few
days ago that the Rome and 0swego roa,
had divided SIX per cent. on the profits q
the last six months. We learn that afle
paying this large dividend, one-lhrd Of tn
tolls have been invested as sinking inud
Thus making the earnings Of The road du

its capital stock. The entire cost Of IN,
road was about ss5,000. Since lis con

has gone over this route. We noticed re

PROSPECTUS
FOR THE
Democratic Pioneer.

We are deslrous of extending the crcula
ton of our paper, and in order to do so, we
call upon all our friends for their assistance
The county Of VYyandot is yet new and but
thinly settled, and to keep up paper in this
place, it IS necessary to make great exertlons
and to this end we invite and call upon every
friend 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 paper that will
merit and receive living support. 1t is a
difficult matter to make paper as interesting
where 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 publica-
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
swa 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-
ton. We will see in short time what can
and will be done.
