sssn PROSPECTUS.

ss9T PROSPECTUS.
The time has come to issue the Annual
Prospectus of THE ONO STATESMAN.
This journal was established to expound
and enforce the great ideas of Government
taught and practiced by THOMAS JEFFERSON
and ANDREW JACKSON, which gave extent
OF territory to the Union, worldwide re-
nownto these States, and unexampled pros
perity and happiness to the American peo-
pie. Never before in the history of the
Government, were the exposition and the
enforcement of these ideas SO necessary as
now. Alone through their adoption and
faithful practice by the Administration, can
the Union be restored, and peace and wide
spread happiness be brought again to our
nntry, now torn and mangled and desc
,ated by a gigantic Civil War.
A. partial change in the Editorship and
Hfoprietorship of THE STATESMAN has taken
place. LEWIS BAKER has sold his entire in
terest 10 the Establishment, and retired from
the position that was assigned him on the
Paper-E. B. EsHELMAN having bought that
interest and an additional interest. Mr..
EsHELMAN has been for nearly leyears
the EDITOR of The Chillicothe Advertisa-a
paper regarded as one of the leading DEM
ocratic Journals of Ohio. He has now
assumed the 0duties and responsibilities
OF his new position as the co-editor of
The STATESMAN, thus uniting his expert
ence and ability with those of AMOS lay
MAN, in the important work of continuing
to make, the several editions of the Paper
deserving the cordial and liberal support of
he Democracy, everywhere. .E
vTHE-OHIo STATESMAN COMPANY now call
upon the friends of the Union and the Con-
stitution, in every County, Township, and
School District, throughout theentire State,
to actively aid them in the circulation of

Bearing to the Left.

It is a remarkable fact that persons
losing themselves 10 tho forest, or in q
snow storm, manifest Invariably ten
dency to turn round gradually to the
left, to the extent even Of eventually
moving in a circle. The explanation Of
this is found probably in the fact that
the limbs and muscles Of the right side
are generally better developed than
those of the left side. Under the cx.
element felt when one is lost, and in
the absence Of any guiding line, the su'
pcrior energy Of the right limbs throws
the pedestrian iusensibly round on the
left.

A MAGNIFICENT PRoJEcT.-To some
of the merchant princes and millionaires
of New York is credited the contempla-
tion of project at once munifeent, gen
erous and grand. The plan is to present
to the United States Government 50 ,000,-
100000, and thus relieve the nation of
the public debt. 1t is proposed to make
the gift in 200, 900 shares of $4,000 each,
of which A. T. Stewart, VIM. B. Astor
and others will each take fifty shares, max
ing up at least a quarter of the whole
amount in New York The realization of
such a project would place both govern
ment and citizens in a prouder position
than ever government or citizens occupied
before. History gives no parallel to such
an act. The Yenetians held in grateful
remembrance the name of man who, by
lifetime of personal sacrifice and hard
faced usury, obtained means to relieve the
public form its financial burdens and
placed it again upon the road to prosperity
after long and disastrous war. They
forgot his exacting usury and his life of
selishness in the lasting benefit he con-
ferred upon the State. But we should
have no abuses to forget, and only the
generous patriotism of republican citizens
to remember Springfield Republican.

and injected through its poison fangs into
the wound it makes9 Whether in this
case the female is not useless? Whether
biting child in the nose between the
eyes is not an odd place to lay snake eggs ?
Or if they were eggs at all, how did they
arrive at the liver? Whether as the man
was so poor and emaciated long before, it
had not quite eat up his liver, then pos
sibly slept round by the duct into the gall
bladder, which would soon sicken him,
and thence by the common canal
force his way, with horrid violence, into
the stomach and thence attempting to
feed on that very sensible part, the poor
remains of exhausted nature was stimu-
lated, attempted and actually elected the
enemy? But | need offer no questions
the fact itself will excite many specula-
ton to mind inquisitive afted philosophic
truths, Yours, &C.,

A REMARKABLE CAsE.-Mr. VIM. L.
Hopkins, or as he is more familiarly
known, Gen. Hopkins, a well known resi-
dent of South Baltimore, has, for the past
six months, been suffering the most intense
agony from pains in the breast. The most
learned physicians have attended him,
but could afford him no relief, they failing
to discover the character of his disease.
A few days since, while Mr.. Hopkins was
moving about his chamber, he felt a prick
ing sensation about his left thigh, and up
on searching for the cause, he discovered
the point Of a pin sticking through the
flesh. The pin was removed and fonnd to
be corroded. Mr.. Hopkins, upon remov-
ing the stranger, remembered that about
the time he was taken sick, he had swal-
lowed pin while eating fish ball at the
Relay House, on the line Of the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad. d.-Baltinaore Clipper.

show, and our past history is sorrowful tale
which has been told. Whether our life be long
or short, whether we have success or failure,
or more rise than fall, mure gain than loss,
still the difference on either hand is small in
the account Of which the sum Of all in our best
estate is only vanity and vexat;on of spirit.
Nought but fearful desolation is seen over
all the way which Time has passed. Beyond
our own hands breadth. nothing but misty
shapes of the visions Of death pass before the
eye Of the soul. The power, fame, and glory
of heroes, kings, czars and presidents may be
written in the same few words which Moses
used to declare the successive dukes of ancient
Edom, or the generations of Adam before the
flood. History, clothed in the beautiful FROST
work of an autumnal morn, has perished in the
blaze of revolving SUM-. The fowery fields
and gardens, once fragrant and dewy as on
Creations first morning, and glowing with life
and joy, infused by the Creators own forming
smile, are all cut down, and trampled in the
dust; as if the God of Nature, offended with
His own creatures, had btddvu Time strike iuto
oblivion work so fair, ard leave it all blightep
and accursed. Cities and monuments, the most
magnificent and splendid have been turned to
destruction by the revolutions of time, or
pushed into Creations dark and melancholy
vaults. Peoples and nations, with genius, and
gifts, and wisdom, and eloquence, and under
standing mysteries, and arts, and knowledge,
have ceased since time passed over them, and
now sumber in the silence of an awful desola-
ton. Their constitutions, not having the one
benign, pure, combining and abiding elements
of perfect charity, have become nothing, and
vanished away as bauble that abideth not.
But while nothing is perfect and abiding in
time, the soul is immortal, and will survive
the wreck of nature and the crash of worlds
Behold we are just on the bounds when time
shall be no more. In moments space this
life is past, and immortality is brought to light
Behold eternity is near, with all its objects
overpowering and grand. When that which is
perfect is come, we look with contempt on all
the perishing objects and things in times. Oh |!
glorious hour, when allthings become new, and
we shall flourish in immortal youth and vigor !!

EMBARGO ON HAY.-Government needs
all the surplus hay in the country, and
has forbidden expectation, and if neces-
sary forage and haywill be impressed
The. Augusta Farmer says:
"The railroad and steamboat companies
have been expressly notified to this effect.
The Government will purchase all the hay
not needed for consumption in the State,
paying therefor fixed rate per tom
We learn that several large lots in process
of shipment for Europe, were taken pos
session of last week in Bath and Portland
by government officials, and Immediately
forwarded to the army. The price paid
by the government is $26 per ton for
common pressed hay, and $32 for Beater
pressed hay-the latter being preferred
for transportation.

THE EFFECTS OF IMPATIENcE.-Noth-
ing more incapacitates man for the lead
than impatience. No constitutionally i'm
patient man who has INDUCED his ten
dency, ever gets to the bottom of things,
or knows, with any nicely, the standing
disposition and circumstances of the peo-
pie he is thrown, or has thrown himself,
amongst. Certain salient points he is
possessed of, but not what reconciles and
accounts for them. Something in him
an obtrusive self, or train of thought,
or likeings and antipathies-will always
come between him and an impartial judg-
ment. Neither does he win confidence,
for he checks the coy, uncertain advances
which are the precursors oft. We doubt
if thoroughly impatient man can read
the heart, or be fair critic, or under
stand the rights of any knotty question, or
make himself master of any difficult situa-
ton. The power of waiting, celebrating,
hanging in suspense, is necessary for all
these-the power Of staving off for con-
siderable periods of time merely personal

A Coop STORY is told of an old lady in
Ritchie county, West Virginia, who own
ed a large tract Of barren land which she
could not sell, and who took the advice of
visitor and poured some petroleum oil
along the streams which meandered
through it. The report spread abroad of
surface indications on the land, and a
whole brigade Of oil hunters came flock
ing down upon the old lady. She sold
her land at fabulous price, the owners
agreeing to give the lady one-eighth of
the oil. The old lady thought she had
pretty good joke on the spectators, but
it turned out that they had better joke
on her. The enterprising fellows set up
their derrick, and put down an auger,
and in short time they struck we'll
which yields one hundred barrels of oil

THANKS TO PHILADELPHIANs.

The following truthful remarks in re-
ference to Senator Ludlam, are from the
Trentor Gazette, and will be read with in
terest by the Senator's friends in thi
part of the State:
In the Senate, on Tuesday of last week
Hon. PROVIDENCE LUDLAM, of Cumber
land, offered the following:-
Be it resolved by the Senate blouse of As.
sembly concurring) that the thanks of New
Jersey are justly due and are hereby rendered
to those patriotic citizens OF Philadelphia who
have shown so much substantial kindness of
heart to our soldiers from this State while pass
ing through that city to and from the seat of
war, in feeding the hungry, nursing the sick,
up binding the wounds of the MANNED !; and that
these kind acts, done to our citizens are, and
ever will be held in grateful remembrance by
our State, long after the red hand of war shall
have passed over our land, and peace returned
to their homes and ours. Adopted.
This is a well-timed and most deserving
recogn ition of the kindness which the cit
liens of Philadelphia have shown to New
Jersey soldiers in passing through their
city when going to and returning from the
seat of war At the soldiers eating-house
near the foot of Washington street, thou
sands of fsoldiers from this and other States
have been feed, without being charged
therefor single penny-the expense Of
the institution being provided for by mer
chants and others of that city For this
they deserve our thanks.
By the way, speaking of Senator LUD-
LAM, we cannot refrain from saying that
no man upon the floor of the Senate is
more watchful for the interests of his con-
stituents; of the interests Of the State ;
nor more firm supporter of the great
principles of the Union party, than he
Thoug h not a professional speaker, what
he does say is so full of common sense ;
so directly to the point; so true an index
of his own deep, we'll settled convictions,
that it always tells upon his associates, and
where no political issue is involved, usual
ly carries majority with him. Cumber.
land may we'll be proud Of having so watch
full and SO able representative on the
floor Of the Senate.
