Thieves, Counterfeiters, Frauds

Are prevailing the land, not only
attempting to steal the money Of hon.
est labor but to rob those justly en-
titled to their reputation and charac-
ter, which they have secured after
years of work and expense.
A band of piratical rogues are Of
fering on the market, medicines to
substitute Simmons Liver Regulator,
beware of the vile stuff which is only
dealt in as cheap counterfeit. The
unwary and unscrupulous are induced
to buy the trash because it is cheap,
and thus pander to an unholy thirst
for gain at the destruction of honesty
and honor.
The dealer palming off the decep-
tion forfsits all public confidence, for
recollect he, who connive at fraud
in one instance, may be considered a
cheat in all others.
The Adventures making this fraud
"a hurtful, souring, injurious COM
pound) upon the Regulator, are of no
reputation. AS they risk nothing,
they would put up any spurious phys
ic, for little gain. They are hiding
even their authorship and in the dark
pursue their nefarious calling. BE-
WARE of the deception, and take

Letter from D. S. Wrioht.

II you can spare room in your val
liable paper, l wish to give you few
hotes of my trip south and what is
worth noticing. I had nice trip and
found good sales, and great demand
for D. S. Wright & Sons Garden
Seeds, Anti Bilious Pills and Cough
Syrup. Who says that man can't do
but one thing at time Is
Wright g. Sons run farm and gar
den, seed business and medicine busi-
ness, and they make a success of all.
Life is short, and the fashions of this
world will soon pass away. In my
travels l notice many styles and fash
ions; one is, that there are private
places at public tables. According
to how a man is dressed they appoint
to him certain chairs or tables. They
DO not appear to know that one mans s
money is as good as another, or ought
to be to them. Hotels lock up their
parlors against travellers and keep
them for visitors, and think that is
fashionable. 1t is the same with men
and women that it is with vegetation.
Go into the garden and you will find
flowers growing, and as you go up the
mountain, birch, hemlock and spruce
are to be found. AS you go towards
the top you will find little stunted
trees getting miserable sustenance
out of the crevices of rocks. You
might as well try to raise flowers
where those rocks and briars are as to
raise great men and women where you
have not got the soil. I often see
men that begun in this world with
nothing, and have held their own
ever since. When 1 am at home in
the north about election time, I hear
about our paying the rebel debt, and
| answer like this, can man have
his head cut off and stuck on again
and live? One is as reasonable as
the other. Mr.. Kesley, of Fairmont,
Va, raised two blacks, male and fe-
male, by the name of Bonafeld, aged
respectively Is and 20 years. At the
commencement of the war, Mr.. Kes-
ley could neither beg nor hire them to
stay-master and mistress both old
and the woman sick. After being
away twelve years, they came back
married, poor and ragged. Nobody
cared for them or wanted them, but
their old master gave them furniture
and made his will last July, and died
last August leaving them one hund-
red dollars apiece. I heard of this
and went to the darkey to ask him,
and he said yes sir; and if we had
staid | expect we would have got
something handsome. This is true,
but some may not believe it, as they
do Uncle Toms Cabin, not half of
which was true, yet at the north there
is a great rush to go and hear it for
so cents. The trakeling company had
better 60 to work and till the soil.
Happy count the farmers life,
Its various rounds of wholesome toll,
An honest man with loving wife,
And oasprings native to the SOIL"
met two Of my sons-George and
David Wright, Jr.-at Piedmont, w.

and had pleasant time. When cross

dian chief, Black Hawk, was shot by
one of Gen. Braddock's soldiers, and
fell a space of thirty feet, dead.
George left David and myself at
Cumberland to finish up the route,
| while he went home to drive wagon
| through seven states, to cross the ma
tural bridge between Lexington, KY,
and Staunton, Va. I have had men
in the seed business come to me and
say, Wright, you might as well have
l0ets. per paper as Bets; and say no
sir; I am down on monopoly. I see
many men put them up at locts., re-
tail and try to make people believe
they want pictures to plant. v They
spend all their money in making
show, and break up. Then comes
along the old standby, D. s. Wright,
for 80 years on the track, with his
motto, "The race is not to the swift,
or the battle to the strong, but to the
faithful" and says to the people, false
prophets will arise among you, but
don't believe them. I am a plain
man. My seeds are plain and well
grown. The stone rejected by some
has become the corner stone. After
trying others they came back to us
and say, have you any boxes, and we
say, yes sir; we have no pets, but sup
ply all who wish to sell our garden
seed. As regards feeling in the south
toward the north, old things have
passed away, peace and harmony reign
among all. The south was whipped
because she was outnumbered. That
was fought and the thing is ended,
and they believe there is no cause for
quarreling. I saw over a cemetery
"'Peace on earth, good will to men,
We have had enough Of war"
Before leaving home I noticed a
piece in this..paper asking if farming
will pay, and l will answer good farm
ing will pay, while poor farming will
pay out of pocket, as interest ticks up
like an old clock against one at noon.
Regarding politics, I said Samuel J.
~! 'c= you'd be elected. Many of
my republican friends say they wish
he had been inaugurated. If he had
been there might be some chance of
the republican party reviving again,
but I will close by these few remarks.
This is great country, and I am sur
prised that there is so much poverty
in country like this, where land is
SO cheap. With strict industry, strict
economy, self-reliance and good health
all might make a good living and Sc
cure a home. Ifyou can't get clean
job, get in the mud. There is plenty
of soap and water to wash in in this
this country. D. S. WRIGHT,
Fredonla, N. Y.
