be worse. The situation of twenty millions
of whites is as favorable as could be asked or

you need not envy the signers of the declara-

eoAD. from the Cincinnati Enquirer, indorsed
by the Louisville Courier, will, we are sure,
bu, reflect the sentimen; of the travelling pab-
lie We take pleasure in commencing it to
our readers:
To THE TRAVELLING PUBLIc.-Among the
well-managed, safe and popular railroads to
the East we know Of none more deserving of
public favor than the New York Central
As an evidence of the great popularity of the
oad, we will cite the fact that the receipts
over the road during the month Of Septeni-
her last were S722,OOO, and during the past
month Of October they were S72S,OOO. This
for a road of only 300 miles in length is
proof positive Of the immense travel on the
road The New York Central is the only
railroad that takes passengers direct to the
city Of New York, the terminus being in the
midst of the great metropolis. We fully en-
dorse the following from the Cincinnati En-
quireT of Sunday:
NEW YORK CENTRAL RAILRoAD-The
great main trunk railroad leading directly to
New York and the eastern cities from this
point is the New York Central Road, and the
advantage it possesses over other eastern
routes Is fuily established by the Immense
increase of travel over it for the last three
months. This road passes through the most
popploua aud fiourishing portion of the State
Of New York, and all the prominent places,
such as Buffalo, Niagara, Rochester, Syra-
cuse Rome, Utica, Schenectady, Albany, &c.
Ii is ably managed, in every respect, making
all its connections up to the time table and
with promptness, while at the same time its
conductors are affable and courteous.
We had occasion to pass over the New
York Central Road not long since. aud, there
fore, we speak from personal observation and
knowledge when we commend it to the ira
velalg community and shippers generally
This road now commands an extensive bu-
siness in the West. which is mainly attributa-
ble to the exertons Of Allen Butler, Esq,
general agent for the Western States. Mr..
Butler is thorough going business man, and
devotes his entire energies to advance the in
terests of the road. Being fully posted up
and familarized with western people aud
western railroads, he is eminently qualified
for his position, and more indefatigable man
cannot be found in years travel,

"Then sail on, oh, ship Of State,
Sail on, D! Union strong and great,
Humanity with all lis fears,
With all its hopes Of future years,
Hang breathless on thy fate.
We know what masters laid thy keel,
What workmen wrought thy ribs of steel,
Who made each mast, and sail and rope,
What anvils rung, what hammers beat,
In what a forge, In what heat,
Was shaped the anchors Of thy hope"
