Toronto, Province of Ontario Canada, Au gust 3d, lrtStl.—By way of giving vent to my feei- I ings of intense relief at having at 1 st reached 1 a point free from the dust, the heat,, and the j abominable coal-burning engines of tno North- 1 ern railways. I’ll wager tnat the passengers who arrived at Niagara last night., through from done. In our last issue, we censured the Her aid for its tardy support of the Demo cratic nominee. We predicated those remarks upon an editorial paragraph which appeared in the Herald of last week, which we reproduced, which we did not think evidenced a very cordial feeling towards the great standard bear er of our party. The- editor ofihe Her ald, however, claims iba of coal that accumulates in a follow’s cars, nose eyt-s and mouth, etc , etc., • d infinitum, is almost sufficient to supply a small city witii luel for a month. At least, such svas my estimate when I looked in a mirror, und pondered the while to discover who 1 was. But notwithstanding those modern conveniences, H) the route is a good one, ttie accomodations elegant, and the s enery sublime and entrancing. Arriving in New York from Washington on Monday morning, i left the , former city the Tuesday morning following, and took the New York, Bake Erie and Western It. I it. for Niagara where I arrived t.iat night at I two o’clock. The distance is four hundred and i forty-three miles, and encompasses the most j beautiful portion of that tremenduous State, New York. Leaving Gotham, we wind to t! we northwest, striking the cities of Paterton, Go shen, Middletown, Laokawaxen, Binghampton. Elmira, Attica, and Buffalo. This brings us diag- (lid his ' 'dually across tbe entire Statu, and introduces | us to the beautiful and magnificent valleys of sentiments violence in those remarks, | ,iie Delaware and Susquebana rivers. We wind gaily through these fairy reg.ous pursuing the and refers us to an endorsement of the ! river courses almost to their headwaters. Soul- . , : lug now the lofty mountain cliffs that rise sub- action 01 the convention, which appeared iiinelyon either side, we now rush madly down . , T , r * I to the alluvial valley below, and skirt around in that paper ot July 20th, 1882. an I the bases of those fringed '•lifts that tower above ... . . i /■ n • . in solemn awe, Us if suden and provoked at this Which we here most cheerfully reprint. ■ invasion of their domain by the Vandals und ' Goths of the nineteenth century. But . n we rough voyage, how could a Georgia boy stomach the sad realty y Notice that I put thin in the form of a question ! I desire to be answered. I arrived in Toronto, notwithstanding, where I am at present quartered. A beautiful city this, with Us long, open and beautiful streets, its lofty spires, and its imposing buildings. 1 tike the frank, honest English faces of the peo ple, 1 admire the symmetrical form and beauty of the girls, I love the cleanliness of the streets, -I ii. | I adore the climate, worship the cordial gene- liie baldest rositv and sociability of the inhabitants—so un expected, and above all I like the place, because here you are not eternally expecting to be rob bed, “knocked down and dragged out.’’ as it is your duty to expect in New York. It is quite a relief to escape from that seeth ng den of con tusion, villainy and crime f There the people are trained to theft and rascality, and will rob your pocket, of a twist of tobacco as readily as a watch of the finest make. Oi course, this charge, though true to an apalling extent, does not refer, I am proud to say, to all. There are a few honorable exceptions. But to be honest in New York, one deserves to be praised ; ior there, to ali appearances, “honesty is uot the best policy.” On the contrary that virtue is at a terrible discount, and a man who is virtuous to tlie extent that lie is honest, is indeed a miracle, “tearfully and wonderfully made 1” But I am diverging. Upon the north shore oi Lake Ontario, the beautiful Canadian city stands bearing the proud preeminence of being the queen City of the West. Immediately in front is a broad Bay, once almost land-locked, but now affording entrance to vessels at either end. From this Bay the view o* the city is imposing, its forest of spires and factory-shat ts giving evi dence of a prosperous and growing community. Although the immediate points of the city are somewhat dep essed, there is a gradual ascent, and remembering this, one can appreciate those, lines of Moore, “Where tho blue hills of old Toronto shed Their evening shadows o’er Ontario’s bed.” As a business centre, Toronto is only second to Montreal. Passing into the city, tile visitoi will find the streets spacious, well laid out and regularly built, with the following points of intc- terest: Parliament House Lieut.-Governors, House, Crystal Palace, Metroplitan St. Michaels Cathedral, etc., etc. Sue! is Toronto in brief. I cannot go further into particulars,/or I /ear I have already trespassed upon your patience and space. 1 return to New York shortly, via Rochester, Syracuse, Utica, Schenectady and Albany, down the Hudson, etc. Then I will turn- myyace to wards the “Sunny South” again, where the wa ters are more crystal clear, the skies more per- ,/ectly arched, and the dear old fields greener and lovelier/ar more than the /timed ggrdens of Babylon and the World. Grand, glorious, old Georgia, I would not give thee with thy red old hills, and thy honest sons of toil fur all the world beside! I will visit the points o/inte rest, I will revel in the mysteries of the Orient, I will gaze with awe and admiration upon the wonders of the Occident, and view with dc- lightand rapture the wonders of the Universe, but when at length I come to die. let me breathe my last u. der the /riendly ghade o/' the Georgia pine, beneath the matchless blue qf her arched sky, by the still waters of her /riendly rivers; and when 1 am laid away, let me rest beneath the magnolias that my /afchers liave pla ited, where the willows droup inovn/ully, and tlie daises spring up annually.

We have searched long for a parallel of the action of our delegates to the late gubernatorial convention, and at last we are prepared to announce that our faithful labors have been fully success - j fnl, and our readers are referred to the I i8'.hand 14th chapters of the Book of Numbers, Bible, where they will find die parallel to which we refer. Moses with the hosts of Israel, was encamped upon the banks Jordan, on the' borders of Canaan, and Israel rejoiced at the prospect of i-oon entering the Promise I,and, and of resting from their wan derings in the wilderness. To make as surance doubly sure, and by the direc tions of lie Lord, x >oses sent a delega tion of twelve, one from each tribe, of the leaders of the people, to spy r ut the land. The delegates wt re absent forty days, and who i they re urned ten of the iwelve delegates made a false re port, they said : “The land through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eateth up the inhabita its thereof; and all the people that we saw in it aHe moo of grea* stature.” Tho melon crop has about reached its zenith. Our town is thronged with vLi‘ >r> this week. We noticed on our streets a few evenings past Col. T. Law Jones. Miss Broom'*, of Augusta, is board ing at Mrs. (J. Miller’s for the sum mer.

And here l begin a j new paragraph, for the sole purpose of express- j iiig myself fully concerning my voyage of lorty- two miles across this Lake. Nothing less than a full-grown paragraph will relieve me of my iu tense feelings of disgust. The Lake, taken on its best behavior, is beau tiful. At least sc> L have read, and I Have been j told ; but remember, I do not vouch for the ac curacy of this statement. Well, the captain re marked after we had been out for an hour or so, \ ami laid been enjoying tliq>iey-tinged air to an alarming extent, that lie believed the Lake ; would be rough, especially if tlie w iad shifted io i .lie northeast. .Scarcely had the prophetic) words escaped Ins lips, wtiell tile villainous wind indoeu shifted, aim of ad rockings, 11114 ; tumblings, ami caperings, that snip dm it! You would liave thought that she was on a dress pa rade ! Others would have imagined her a fiery, | well-bred, horse who, was desirous of “showing off” before tlie company. Tho truth is, in my | opinion, she was an ill-bred, villainous, low-down I river steamboat, whose only ambition seemed to I be, anil was, to make some poor, little boy, ar away from home and friendly sympathizers, | sick. I need not say that she accomplished her diabolical purpose. I sincerely trust that she anchors at tills moment, satisfied with her days | doings ; for i! ever there was a person ttxired uji from tlie lowest regions, I was that unfortunate | and melancholy one ! But “let the dead and tlie beautiful rest.” Returning goad for evil, 1 shall remember that Lake and Hteamboat kindly, even though my benighted liead is even now keeping time witii tlie mad, wind medley of the waves, and my body witii tlie tossing and rocking of that prancing steamer. [By way of corroborat ing the above, I will state that tlie Keening Jele- gram, a paper published here, announces Gils afternoon that the “Empress of Japan,” who it appears is on a visit in these parts, “postponed her trip across tlie Lake to-day 011 account of its exceeding roughness.’’] If l\\e Empire*q/'Ja pan could not stand even tlie contemplation of a AU Sufferers with BLIND, BLEEDING or HIDDEN PILES oan be permanently cured L DR.
