It is regarded to be somewhat uncertain as to the political complexion of the county; but We think there is a decided majority in favor of the democrats; and if we mistake nottue spirit and energy ef the democracy of Wyan- dott they will increase and strengthen their majority and make their ascendancy per ma sent.

A cotempora- ry thus comments upon the cockney sports men who, with gun tn hand, travel around the country, shooting every little bird in the hedges,' whose songs, instead of moving their admiration, only arouse their destructive propensities: ' . " No man with a soul so large as a flea's gizzard, could possibly be so mean, so cruel. so cowardly, as to go round, popping at little birds in the briars and bushes, wing break ing sparrows and maiming chickadees and yet there are things in human shape just base enough to do it." Such fellows ought to be banished from the meadows and fields, and set to rat catch' ing in some brewery. Taking" his own Medicine;. Several years ago, a young gentleman went to con suit a certain attorney how he, might carry on an heiress. You can't do it with sate ty,17 said the counsellor; " but 1 Jl tell you what you can do; let her mount a horse, and hold a bridle and whip; do you then mount behind her, and yon are safe for she runs away with you.' The counsellor, how ever, was sufficiently punished,' when next day be found that it was his own daughter that had run away with his client. It is said that foreign grapes are found to . be too tender for growth in this climate, they should be grafted on the native stocks.

The Pilot's party is the citizens of this Republic against any and all its enemies. locally, the Pilot will especially consult the. interests, commercial and otherwise, of Buffi lo, and the great and growing Valley of the Lakes, with which the former is inse parably connected. . .The Pilot is supplied with regular daily files of the Paris papers of every political party, and will therefore furnish not only original sources, and by thus giving both sides, enable its readers to judge more cor rectly than they possibly can by reading only one.

" V NEW PROSPECTUS OF THE OHIO STATESMAN. - An appeal to the one hundred and fifty thou sand Democrats of Ohio, and to the just feelings of men ef all parties. Last night -in the darkness and gloom that surrounded, the halls ef legislation the foul deed was consummated, and the selemn contract with the State for the Legislative printing was violated, out of pure political spite l JNo other reason was assigned than that we had, by the publication of eur paper, annoyed the coon party and the ACCI DENTAL majority now in the Legislature a majority obtained by the most mexcusa ble divisions ot our friends in three senatorial districts. This accidental power, in viola tion of all right, justice, or precedent, was wielded expressly to cripple and break down the only press at the Capital that dare be in dependent, and warn the people ot trie chains forging in the Legislature for their oppression and slavery. VVje dared assail and expose the iniquitous projects of the whiff majority in their schemes to debase and bow down the white laboring man of the State, while they were' attempting to gain a little additional popularity by pretend ing to elevate the negro'and- encourage his settlement amongst us. We dared expose their midnight tin-pan ning, which they pretended to denounce when before the people, and when entrusted with power, follow not in the nomination of officers alone, as the democrats did but by carrying their whole wicked acts of legis lation into their nightly cabal, and they le gislated in secret! We dared expose their repeal of laws passed for the protection of the people restricting corporations, &c. laws somo of which have been in force for twenty and twenty-five years, and thus turn ing loose upon society every possible crime and iniquity. But we shall not particularize their acts aud doings in this hastily thrown together prospectus, prepared at the moment of leaving home in consequence of the news of the sickness of one of our family now east of the mountains. We shall go into detail hereafter, and bring to the light of day the conduct ot this thing called whiggery in Ohio. I shall teach this party that per secution cannot either stop or depress the spirit of an independent press, as long as the unbought freemen of the State demand its services. 1 heir acts alone cannot compel me to bow before the nefarious despotism of the dregs of coonery, hard cider, and the esta blished immoralities of Mr. Clay and the dic tators of his party. "They cannot accom plish their purposes, if the democrats of Ohio, to whom I am indebted for so many favors, stand by me in this crisis. I have stopped at no expense or labor, to fulfil my part of the contract as State Printer. I accepted the office in good faith. I relied on the guaranties of law and the constitution, and the common honesty that has heretofore protected all my predecessors of whatever party. But a brainless crew of maddened whigs federalists of the doepest dye, con scious of their own bad standing have out stripped every thing that revolution has here tofore conceived. 5 The Statesman will be continued as here tofore giving a steady support to the great principles ot Democratic Liberty and Equal Rights and to the administration of the Gen eral Government by Mr. Polk. It will ex pose and lay bare to the public gaze, tho ini quities and outrages of federal whiggery, aud particularly the infamous and unparalleled proceedings of the present Legislature. 05- Tho Daily and Tri-Weokly Statesman will be printed on a double medium sheet. and the Semi-Weekly and Weekly on a large double imperial sheet.
