PRO OSPECT us
OF THE
Session Ohio Statesman.

The Legislature of Ohio and Of the Congress
of the Nation, are about to convene. From
Washingto we shall have Daily Telegraphic
Reports and regular Correspondent by mail, and
between the two, our readers VIII have the earlI-
e,trews and general out line OF the doings at the
Federal city.
The sessions OF the Ohio Legislature, always Of
deep interest to our people. will be of peculiar
Importance this Winter, owing to the vote OF the
people in favor of new Constitution. If single
voter has neglected heretofore to inform himself
on political matters, or has been negligent Of vot.
ing, the time Is nav come when he should be so
no longer In the framing OF a Constitution. by
which we are all hereafter to be governed, every
one should take part and aid to the hest Of his ab
tiles in making il good one. And there is no
time to be lost, as the Legislature may decide to
hurry this question up on us earlier than many
NAV suppose. Action should therefore commence
at once.
We have no desire to boast. or do injustice to
others, but we think we can appeal to the public
from past experience, with Justice, to say, that
the ONO STATESMAN has been the only paper
att the State Capital that has pretended for to
give any thing like .fuH reports Of the legislative
proceedings; and we expect this year to give equal,
if not greater attention to full and impartial his
tory of the doings of our law makers. To be re-
.munersted for this great labor and expense, we
expect large, yes, generous list OF SESSION SUB
scRIBERs. But to procure them we must rely
upon Dur friends throughout the State to aid in
getting them up and forwarding them To US AVID
,he earlier it is done after the receipt Of this PR0s
pECrUs, or a knowledge of our terms, the better;
as il will give us time to enter them upon our
books and estimate the probable amsunt necessary
to commence with.
In addition to the legislative proceedings the
approaching Winter is the time ior the meeting of
Il biennial Conventions Of the political parties of
the State, and the nomination of candidates for
Governor Every democrat will want the full
proceedings of the 9Th of January Democratic
Convention. one not less important than any that
ever proceeded it-one on which may depend the
future triumphs or defeats of our party. In fact,
so important is the action of the approaching
Winter in the politics of our State, that every
man should feel interest enough in it to see that
his neighborhood is supplied with the pro- er in
formation. The old adage that "A stch in time
saves n:ne," is not less applicable to politics and
public affairs, than in private matters.
