THE ensuing Legislature will be one f unusual interest to every citizen of the Cornmowealth. The adoption of the Amendments to the Constitution, will give rise to new legislation in which it is not unlikely that party fee'ing may be come warmerly enlisted, and subjects ag tated that will excite the strongest desire to obtain early and correct information. A new Administration, it is expected, will also come into power, and give birth to new measures under its new men. These, together with the ordinary duties of Legislation, will make the coming Leg islature a busy as well as important one. 'During its session the "Pennsylvania Telegraph" will be published twice a week ;its contain late and fatal accounts of ;its proceedings, taken by experienced re !porters. It will also contain Congress ional proceedings, and general news. TERMS: For the session For the year 83 THEO. FENN, Harrisburg, Nov. 10, 1333. IS7 ELLIGENCER (S• DEMOCRAT. LECISLATIVE PROCEEDINGS. THE ensuing session of the Legisla . tore of this Commonwealth, it is expec ted, will be one of more intense interest to the people than any that has preceded it. Not only will it be the first session under a new organic law, untried, and in the estimation of many thousands, of ,doubtful untility, but it will be the first :sessionf of contested elections—the first 'session to which the abused ballot-box will appeal for redress. Parties being nearly ballanced, and each firm as the ev erlasing hills in support of its peculiar tencts, their conflicts—the one battelling under the sacred paople of truth, for the best interest of the people—the other with dark banner of falsehood waving over it, contending for power and the at dendant "spoils of attac an interest to the session which will rent der vehicles of con ect information in re gard to the proeedings, of immense im portance to the citizens of Pennsylva nia .. Such vehicle will be found in the "Intelligencer 4' Democrat" the editors of which pledge themselves to spare no pains, labor or expense, to render their sheet worthy of public patronage. As the undersigned have both had ex. perience in reporting, and are also practi cal printers, they I-411LE able to give full and correct reports of the sayings and doings of the two llouses, and place the intelligence in their paper in the most at tractive and satisfactory form. In ad dition to Legislative reports, they will give ample-sketches of the proceedings of Congress, and a general summary of the news of the days. The "Intelligencer" is Democratic in polittcs•—supports the Patriotic and States man of the West—GEN. W. H.

PROSPECT US, OF THE HARRISBURG CII RONICLE, There being nothing which so much en hances the value of - a public journal as early and faithful news, the editor and proprietor of the Harrisburg Chronicle has made such arrangements, as will not fail to make his paper equal, if not supe— rior to any other in the place, during the ensuing year, in this particular. The sessions of the State Lecrislature ' the coining session, promise to be unusu ally intsresting. The policy of the new State administration, must excite curiosi ty in the minds of all such as take any part in the politics of the day, inasmuch as the friends of the new Governor have found much fault with the administration of Joseph Ritner, though one of the best Governors Pendsylvania ever had; and it remains to be seen from what this winter will develope, whether the people have made a wise change. Besides the interest [which the policy . of the new administration will give rise I to, the duties of this winter's Legislature will be such as to engage the serious at • tention of every citizen in the State. A mong many other matters it will have the altering and the amendiag of existing , laws, so as to conform to the provisions of the new Constitution, and make such others as the emergency will require, which will be neither few nor unimpor tant. As it is our purpose to continue the publication r•f the Chron►cle, and with zeal, we will not say with what ability, do battle against locofocoism, Van Burenism Fanny Wrightism, and all other destruc tive isms, we most earnestlycall upon the friends of democracy and good govern ment to aid us; it not for our sake, let them do it for the sake of the mitre we sponse. TERMS This paper will, as heretofore, be pub lished twice a week during the session of the Legislature, and once a week during the remainder of the year, on a fine doub le medium sheet, and new type, at 83.00 per annum payable in advance. For six months including the session of the Leg stature, S 2 50 in advance. No subscn her can discontinue his paper until all ar rearages are paid.
