How Ion;; "the peslib nco that walketh in d.wknc' w i'l "htihue to perpetrate its- teriible ravages, is a question that tin;.

It i really painful to notice the frequent accidents thai (.ecu r on our steam boats and railway.

We, collectively considered, have opportunities which tend to more happiness, while oa our earthly course, than thoe of any oilier nation now extant, or peril tps tli.it ever preceded us. There were periods when Greece and Il'iin'J arrived nearer the acme of perfection, than any former nations, in va lious arts and science: their imperial flags waved majestically in every port of the then known world: distant nations dreaded their wrath and they were happy. But, alas! the plebeians, or common people, became dupes to artful dem igogU is; they were then gradually led into anarchy a id co fusion, until they ceased to be nations. If the people had been wi-e enough to draw the line of demai kation, between good and evil if they had not been diverted from correct principle, by fale oratory, a bl ink might have been left in history as regards their bad deeds.

The proprietors of the Indiana Democrat take thi method of info miig (lie public, that (hey have made arrangements, by the. employment ofcompetent Reporters, lo ensure a faithful and interesting dte.ul of the proceedings of the Indiana Legislature, during the ensuing session. The paper will, as heretofore, be published (wice a week, during the session, and will conlam, in aihiition to t Lo legislative reporis, the earliest important news of the day foreign and domestic, Con-gies-ional intelligence, politics, miscellaneous matter &c. &e. The political course of the paper is so well know n and established, that it is unnecessary to remark further on this subject, than to say, that it will be the ambition of the proprietors to make it deserving the liberal patronage it has already received from an enlightened public. The additional expense ofa semi-weekly paper, in stock, materials and workmen, together with the employment of a Reporter for each branch of (he Legislature, makes it necessary that wa: should appeal fo the generosity of the citizens of our State, to sustain us in the undertaking hoping and believing, that we slwll be enabled to make a full return for their patronage. TERMS: The price of subscription, to regular subscribers, is two collars for fifty -two nufobers. if paid in advance; two dollars and liny cents, if paid within six months, or three dollars at the end of the year.
