PROS SPECT IS
FOR THE
OHIO STATE DEM GRAFT

On or about the first Monday Of December, the
undersigned will Issue a daily paper under the
above title, to be devoted to the news of the day
and to politics.
1t will Re published morning paper, which
will give its patrons the advantage of the evening
Telegraph reports, received at too late an hour to
be printed in the evening papers, as well as the
news by the evening mails. By this means our
citizens will receive the reports by telegraph, of
the markets and other intelligence. some four or
five hours in advance of the Cincr natl papers,
and from eight To twelve hours in advance of the
other cify papers. The aim of its conductors will
be to make it business and news sheet. and to
accomplish this. care will be taken to give full and
daily reports Of the different markets, as well as
other items of interest to the trader and farmer.
The next Congress will fully develope the po-
cy of the new administration. The noble stand
taken by Secretary Marcy in his admirable letter
to the Austrian Minister on the Smyrna difficulty,
so cordially endorsed by the great body of the
American people. irrespective of party, shows that
however much we may differ in matters of expe-
diency, yet when the interest and honor of our
country is at stake, we are a united people.
The unsettled state Of the European world-the
commanding position of our country, and the de-
termination of the new administration already
expi essed, to make the title of American citizen
passport of safety and of respect in all parts OF
the world, has fixed the attention of the other ma
ions upon us, and the action of the coming Con-
| Pierce. will possess peculiar and deep interest
to the American people. To keep our readers ad
vsed of the action of the national Legislature in
this, and in other questions OF home policy, will
be our constant aim.
On the first Monday Of january, our own State
Legislature. with Democratic majority large be.
yond precedent in other States of the Union, will
meet to finish up the work of putting the new
constitution, in all its parts, into successful opera
ton. The legislative reports of the ONO STATE
DEMOCRAT, from the long experience Of its con-
ductors, we hazard but little in saying, will be
eqral to those of any paper ever published in Ohio.
The overwhelming majority by which the De-
! mocracy Of Ohio succeeded at the late election,
by standing firm to its principles. and refusing to
incorporate any of the ephemeral issues ut the day
with its political creed, can only be maintained
| by a steady adherence and frequent recurrence
to the fundamental principles which divide the two
great parties OF the country. The ONO STATE
| DEMOCRAT will steadily aim to maintain that as
tendency, and in so doing will give the national
and state administrations steady and hearty sup
port
All connected with the DEMOCRAT as editors
ndpuhlishers practical printers. and 1T is theil
intention to present sheet that for typographica
elegance, will be equal to any oil its contemporaries
