Parties being nearly ballanced, and each firm as the ev erlas'ing hills in support ofits peculiar tenets, 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 "spoila of victory,"—will attac an interest to the session which will rent der vehicles of collect information in re-I gard to the proeedings, of immense im portance to the citizens of Pennsylva nia .

PROSPECTUS. OF TH L• HARRISBURG CHRONICLE. There being nothing which so much en !hances the value of a public journal as , l early . and faithful news, the editor and proprietor of the Harrisburg Chronicle 'gas made ouch arrangements, as will not Nil to make his paper e q ual, if not supe— rior to any other in the place, during the ensuing year, in this particular. The sessions of the State Leg islature , he coming session, promise to be unusu ally intsresting. The policy of the new State administration, must excite curios- ''y in the minds of all such as take any part in the politics of the day, inasmoch 'as the friends of the new Governor have' found much fault with the administration :51 Joseph Hither, 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 ,nade a wise change. Besides the interest (which the poiicy of the new administration will give rise to, the duties of this winter's Legislature will be such as to engage the serious at ention of every citizen in the State. A. non many other matters it will have • the tittering and the amending of existing laws, so as to conform to the provisions of the new Constitution, and make such ',,there as the emergency will require, which will be neither few nor unimpor-, tant. As it is our purpose to continue the :mblical;on of the Chronicle, and with Leal, we will not say with what ability, do battle against locofoceism, Van Burenism Fanny Wrightism, and all other destruc tive isms, we most earneatlycall um 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 cease w•e I spouse.
