I' to their reasonable requirements. Substan- \ tiallv, they are intended to protect citizens of the United States iu the possession and enjoy-I nient of their political and civil rights, guaranteed to them by the late amendments to the ; Constitution ; and the President, whose duty j it is to see that the laws are faithfully executed, would be recreant to that duty, if lie did not i so administer the Government as to afford to j all citizens the equal protection of the laws. ! I have added these suggestions to the iufor- I mation for which you ask, with a sincere hope ; that, by the exercise of a mutual recognition j of each other's rights, by all classes of people, no further necessity will arise for their protection and enforcement uuder said Acts, through the action of the General Government. xt , n 11 very respecuujiv, GEO. H." WILLIAMS, Attorney-General. ? Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. LETTER FROM WESTERN NEW YORK. Olean, N. Y., August 1, 1S73. Emerson says that "travel is the fool's paradise." I sometimes think so. Yet, with all the attendant fatigue and discomfort, there is much in travel that enlarges the grasp of one's mind, or at least, gives him a knowledge of geography that he would acquire in no other way. By no possibility can a man learn as much of the geography and topography of his couutry from books as we can from travel and the atteudant facilities for personal observation. No description, however graphic, can convey to the understanding as acurate a picture of a landscape as is conveyed through the medium of the Syes. When a person takes a notion to travel, I > do not believe that he should consider it neces- ' sary to post off to Europe. There is much in this country to be seen. Several years can be profitably employed in journeying over the ? States and Territories. To know all about Europe, and nothiug of one's own country, is an J accomplishment of doubtful utility. through ohio. , A select party of two, oue of which was the undersigned, left Cincinnati last Thursday for a trip to Western New York. We came over 1 the Atlantic and Great Western road, or broad j gauge route, as it is called. We left Cincin * ? v 1 .1- - "VT uati at halt past eleven o ciocs ou me ;>ei? York lightning express, and shot out through the rolling country like an Indiau arrow. I don't know that this comparison is beautiful, but let it go?the arrow, I mean. In little less than two hours we ran to Dayton, sixty-six miles, and there stopped three minutes for lunch. Upon this line there are splendid lunch houses at all the principal stations; but of what utility is a lunch house when you are given no time to enjoy it? That is the thought which occurred to me at Dayton, as I barely got poised on a three legged stool in front of a tempting array of sandwiches, cheese, pie, milk, tea and cake, when the rascal of a train commenced to slip out of the depot. Dayton is a city of some twenty thousand inhabitants, full of vim, life and enterprise. Ohio is famous for the number and beauty of its cities, of from eight to thirty thousand inhabitants. To the population of the State there are more of these gems of rapid growth than in any other. I am not a native of Ohio, nor did I ever live there, but several trips through it have given me an august idea of the wealth and power of that great commonwealth. That a State settled sixty or seventy years ago should now contain property to the value of two thousand millions of dollars is ? something worth thinking about. We rau to Urbana, through a fine rolling country, by three o'clock. The farmers were , cutting their wheat, oats aud hay, and one < could but note the advantages which they 1 have in improved machinery. The farmer I now rides as he cuts hay, being able, with the 1 improved mowing machine, to cut an acre an ] hour, whereas, with the old system of hand 1 mowing, an acre a day was considered fair work. At Urbana the greatest traveling show in the world was on exhibition. I refer to the , gigantic concern which P. T. Barnura has launched upon the country. It is undoubtedly the biggest thing in the way of a show ever before seen on earth. The large tent seats : fourteen thousand people, and within are three j separate circus rings all full of performers at : once. Barnura moves altogether by railroad, it requiring four engines and over a hundred cars to transport his monster concern. His* daily expenses are over seven thousand dollars, yet admittance is had to the whole gi- J gantic combination for fifty cents! i A word as to Barnum himself. He is very ( wealthy and could retire on a priucely income, but he prefers to roam over the world with monster strings of wild animals and circus r. Ti ? :e .. I ptTIOnuerS. JLL IS U IJUCSWUU ll a imuu Ui I j active mind and habits, like Barnum, can . i ever be contented. Indeed, it is denied that there is a man in the world who is really contented, be he of active habits or otherwise. I once read of a wealthy man who proposed to give a farm to whomsoever was contented. So he put up a sign board by the roadside upon which was this inscription : "I will give this farm to any man who is contented." Several passed by, paused, but, upon reflection, moved on again, knowing that they could not rightfully claim it. At last one, who thought , himself particularly well situated, ran iu glee to the rich man saying, "I am truly contented, I will take the farm." "Are you certain you are contented ?" asked the rich man. "Oh ! i yes, sir, there isn't a doubt of it." "Then, what do you want the farm for?" enquired : the rich man, at which the other vanished. | Oh ! contentment, what a jewel thou art, and | how rare! But I must hurry along. The reader can moralize for himself, if in the mood. At West Salem we were given the liberal allowance of ten minutes for supper. It is a I question if a man does not injure himself by j bolting a meal in ten minutes as much as he . would to go without. The supper was good, ' however, and I was shocked that the landlord \ should charge but fifty cents for it. J Xf..j..:n 1 t \\ e pUSSeU xUeaUVlllU UlIU Uiluit;ai.u?vii nunc asleep, and awoke at Salamanca. At Olean ] we stopped for awhile. Olean is a quiet New York village with a population of two or j three thousand. Two of us, two valises and a trunk were conveyed from the depot to the I hotel, over a mile, for fifty cents. One is struck by the reasonableness of charges in eastern villages and towns. The hotel rates are seldom over two dollars a day, and the fare is all t*,M, a reasonable man could desire. But; ^ you do not get "waited on" as much as at the same class of hotels in the South. There are fewer waiters, porters and boot-blacks dancing attendance. This is well, for a large number of hotel drummers is an indication of want of employment. A man, white or black, whose husiuess it is to hang around depots and drum for hotels, would likely be in better employment if he could find anything better to do. N EMO. ^financial aitb Commercial.

August 7 32 1 in ' THAT FAVORITE HOME REMEDY^ " PAIN-KILLER, Has been before the public for over twenty years, and probably has a wider and better reputation than any other proprietary medicine of tho present day. At this period there are but few unacquainted with the merits of the Paix-Killkk; but, while some extol it as a liniment, they know but little of its power in easing pain when taken internally; whilo others use it internally with great success, but are equally ignorant of its healing virtues when applied externally. We, therefore, wish to say to all, that it is equally successful, whether used intently or externally. It is sufficient evidence oi its virtues as a siauuaru medicine to know that it is now used in all parts of the world, and that its sale is constantly increasing. No curative agent has had such a wide spread sale, or given such universal satisfaction. Davis' PAix-KiLLKitisa purely vegetaldecompound, prepared from the best and purest materials, and with a care that insures the most perfect uniformity in the medicine; and whiloit is a most effective remedy for pain, it is a perfectly safe medicine, even in the most unskillful hands. It is eminently a Famii.y Mkdicink: and l>y ocing kept ready for immediate resort, will save many an hour of suffering, and many a dollar in ;ime and doctor's bills. Aftor over thirty years trial, it is still receiving :he most unqualified testimonials to its virtues, 'rom persons of the highest character and responsibility. Eminent Physicians commend it as a most effectual preparation for the extinction of pain. It is not only the best remedy ever known for Bruises, Cuts, IIurns, etc., but for Dysentery >r Cholera, or any sort of bowel complaint, it is a remedy unsurpassed for efficiency, and rapidity if action. In the great cities of India, and other liot climates, it has become the standard medicine for all such complaints, as well as for Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, and all other kindred iisordors. For Coughs and Colds, Canker, Asthma, and Rheumatic difficulties, it lias been proved by the most abundant and convincing testimony to be an invaluable medicine. We would caution the public against all imitations of our preparation, either in name or style of putting up. July 31 31 lm OBITUARY.
