A PROCLAMATION.
A1.MKIHTV Goi, our Heavenly
Father, has boon pleased to vouchsafe to
-us ns a pcoplo another year of that na
tional Ufo which is an lndlspcnslblecon
union vii ul.ivc, rutin iit , um jnwiu.s.s
That year, moreover, lms been crowned
with many peculiar blessings. The
civil war that has ho recently been
union; us, litis not been nnywlioro re
opened. Foreign Intervention has ceased
to excitoularm or apprehension. Intru
sive pestilence has been benignly niltl
gated. Domestic tranquility has im
proved; sentlmentsof conciliation have
largely prevailed, and atrocthms of loy
alty and patriotism have been widely re
newed. Our fields liavo yielded quite
abundantly j our mining industry has
becn richly rewarded, and we have been
' allowed to extend our railroad system
. far into the Interior recesses of the
country; while our commerce has re
mimed its customary activity in foreign
seas. Thcne great national blessings de
mand a national acknowledgement.
Now, therefore, I, Ani)m:w Johnson,
President of tho United .States, do l.ore
"b'y recommend that Thursday, tho
twenty-ninth day of November next,
, ho set apart and be observed everywhere
win the several Stated and Territories of
tho United Htatcs by the people thereof
as a day of thanksgiving and pralso to
Almighty God, with due remembrance
, that in Ills temple until every man
(jpeak of Ills honor. 1 recommend also
i that on the satno solemn occasion wo do
'humbly and devoutly Implore him to
grant to our national councils and
to our whole people that divine wis
dom which alone can lead any nation in
the ways of all good. In offering these
national thanksgivings, praises, and
supplications, wu have the divine assur
unco that the Lord reiuainoth a kin;.
forever; thoso that are meek shall lie
' guide in judgment, and such as arc gen
tie shall lie learn His way. The Lord
shall give strength to His people, and
. the Lord shall give to His people the
blessing of peace.
v - III witness whereof I have hereunto
set liiy hand and caused the seal of the
A United States to be nfllxed.
Donn at tho City "of Washington this
eighth day of October, in the year of

LETTER FROM GENERAL
CUSTER.
Gr.NT.HAr, It. A. At.okk, who served
for seine time in General (1. A. Custer's
command, recently wrote that gentle
man a letter of friendly inquiry rela
tlve to his present political position
General Custer, In his reply, states that
he had hoped that when he resumed his
ofllcial duties he would not again be
called upon to discuss or even expre
an opinion regardingpolitieal question
" This rule," he says, " I departed from
to a certain extent during the pat few
months, and while not engaged upon
any olllcial duty, impelled by the single
deMre to advance the Interests of the
country, promote harmony and order
throughout tho land, and thereby aid in
attaining those ends for which you and
I struggled and fought during the late
war of Kebellion. 1 claim nlleglancoto
no political party and acknowledge no
political creed. I sympathize in senti
ment and action with tho.-e. men only
of all parties who, disregarding party
ties and mero political dogma'', regard
the preservation of the country upon coin and Johnson
tiie principles of a free, enlightened, of the DIx school
and Republican Government an out
weighing every consideration, oven if it
lie at tno Micriuco 01 party. 111 your
letter you ask ' whether or not' I ' have
been misrepresented.' To tills query 1
Lieutenant L P. Docherty, of Pooth
capture notoriety, has just returned
from a four months' residence in South
Carolina, and gives a rather dlscourag-
am Ing account of the crops anil the gener
al p.l condition of the country. Tho corn

ji", Many plantations will not yield over
in two Dusneis to tne acre, aim very lew
more than five. The cotton crop wns
moderately good, which is all that the
people have to rely upon.
Lieutenant Docherty wns for several
months Provost Judge for the Sumter,
Clarendon, nnd Kershaw District, in ad
dition to discharging tho duties oi
liost commandant, and is therefore fa
miliar with the workings of tho Freed-
men's ilureau. Ho pronounces the con
tract system a failure, and Is decldodly
of the opinion that the labor question
would soon adjust itself to the advan-
t.iL'o of all concerned if left to Itself.
The solution of Provost or Military
Courts ho considers would also contrib
ute to peace and harmony, and better
subserve the ends of justice.

forth in the account of tho interview
with tho New Hampshire delegation to
the Philadelphia Convention, viz: to
appoint to olllce none but Conservative

'. No Itettirn Judge attended from that

jority for Clymer for Governor is one
thousand six hundred and eighteen, and
for Judgo Klwell, for Congres, one
thousand soven hundred and twenty
two. Wo aro informed that these are
tho largest majorities over given iu this

aro certainly very heavy upon the total

Tho vote in Bloom Township was
much larger than over before, nnd if the
majorities upon tho total vote had run
iu tho uaino proportion that they did In
1803 and 1801 on Governor anil Presl-
dent tho majorities for Gearv and Mer-
eur would liavo exceeded one hundred
for each. Geary's majority, however,

advice at all it would bo to inducethem

This, however, does not answer your
question, lint I will now do so. Mr.
Chipinan, for tho past two or three
years at least, has, by popular opinion,
been understood as being included in
that class of men who, during tho war,
failed to render to tho Government that
support which is duo from every truly
loyal and patriotic citizens. Whether
this opinion is well founded or not I am
not prepared to say. I have never
-eeen it contradicted, but, on tho eon.
trary, have heard it expressed by Demo
crats and Republicans before and since
tho close of tho war. While knowim'
tlmt tho law holds a man. Inno -ent until
proven guilty, public opinion is not so
lenient, but is inclined to east tho ver
dict with tho majority. Mr. Chipinan
may bo Judged too humbly, but I hold
that for such an important olllco as Mr,
Chlpmun is a candidate, wo should not
only havo a man "without reproach
but above suspicion." Whilo I there
fore declino to ndvlso any soldier how
to vote, I most assuredly would not ad
vise him to voto for a person for whom
I would not voto myself. This opinion
lias not been hastily formed. Hoping
you may Hud this letter satisfactory,

suppose that 1 havo departed from the

THE INFLUENCE OP TIIE UNI
TED STATES UPON EUHOPE.
It is only lately that tho great moral
influence of this country upon Europe
lias been recognized by people in general
Statesmen and philosophers have seen
and in somecasosliaveacknowledgedit
but now it is observed In a remarkable
manner throughout tho whole continent
Wo had an instance of this recently in
the appeal of the Greek Christians un
dor the Turkish dominion to tho great
transatlantic republic. But it is not.
these people, in a rcmoto and isolated
part of Europe, who have felt the morr
influence of tho United States so much
as it is those of tho populous States of
Western Europe. Tho principles o
universal suffrage and of the unification
and solidarity of nations were boin
here. These principles, which under
laid the late war in Europe and which
liavo produced an extraordinary rovolu
tion there, were spread across tho At
lantic by tlio successful operation of our
institutions, and particularly througl
their successful operation in preserving
the Government underthoinost gigantic
Kebellion known in history.
Tho War of Independence, with tho
truo Ideas of Kepublican l!lerty diffused
by that event, was onoof the chief causes
of the great revolution hi France. Grad
unity, aim inmost imperceptibly lor a
time, these Ideas spread over the- world
till at last our mighty struggle for ua
tional life startled mankind by ltsutag
nitude, and excited universal admiration
of our Government. Ciuserism, under
great military conquerors nnd revolu
tionists, and especially under the Ilona-
partes, has endeavored to subjugate,
mould, nnd control public sentiment for
dynastic or imperial ends. It lias been
compelled iinally to adopt our principle
of universal sutl'iage as the basis of its
existence. All thu great movements In
Europe have this foundation. The im
perial power of Napoleon reslson It, tho
ininien-e strength of Prussia is drawn
from it, and the resuscitation of Italy Is
the result of it. Universal suffrage, horn
in tho United States, is fast revolution
izing tho Old World.
Put tho principle of unity and solid
arity of nations of the same race and
language also had Its origin and derives
Its strength in a great measure from us.
Tho statesmen of Europe saw what a
powerful empire grew up hero and
maintained its exlstenco under circum
stances that would liavo shattered any
other nation to pieces. The Prussians,
under lllsmark, particularly, saw tho
necessity of unity, and directed tlio
grand movement In Germany to that
end. Tho Italians wcro inspired by tho
same idea. Iloth adopted the princi
ples which successfully carried us
through tho most terrlblo war and dem
onstrate,! thu strength of tho Govern
limit. Tho sanioresult followed. Uoth
havo astonished tho world by their suc
cess, which must bo attributed to these
two Ideas of universal sullrugo and m.
tional unity. Such Is (he moral power
tho United States is exorcising oyer
Europe. Hut the end Is not yet. Ciesar
ism, imperialism, or royalty, under one
form or another, may endeavor to con
trol this movement to savo Itseir; but
universal sullrugo is only compatible
with republicanism, q-,0 llxurt,0 of
tho voice of tho people in tho ehnlnn ,,r
rulers Is tho very essenco if unlvmv.it
suffrage. Europe cannot become Com.
sack, fur the enlightened spirit of the i
TIIE SUPREME COURT.
Till-: history of the Supreme Court of
tho United States may bo divided Into
four periods. The llrst, Which Wo inny
call tho original orforinutlvo period, cv
tends from 1780 to the accession of
Chief-Justice Marshall, and Includes tht(
terms of the two Chicf-Jintlces Jay ami
Ellsworth. The orlglnnl members were
Jnyjof New York ; Kutledge, of .South
Carolina; dishing, of Massachusetts r
WiUoii, of Pennsylvania; Dhtlr, erf
Tlrglnia, nnd Harrison, of Mnryliiml.
Ciishlng was the only ono who remained
on tho Hench at the close of John Ad
ams's administration. Judge Iredoll
tine on thu Pouch in 1790, T. Johnson
in 17!)1, Patterson in 170.1, Ellsworth h
t7y."i, S. Chase In 1700, U. Washington
In 1708, and Moore In 1700. All lt
the last two wero appointed by Wash,
ington.
The second period begins with 1MM,
Imultaneoiisly with the political revo
lution which brought Mr. JefTorson to
tho Presidency, mid embraces nearly
the whole term of Chief-Justice Mar-
hall. Ho was appointed, Indeed, by
the first Adams, Just as tho latter vn
goingout of olllce, nnd his life extend
ed several years into General Jackson's
term ; but tho unity of character of the
court may bo regarded as ending in
18'JO. Tho judges whom Marshall
found as his associates wcro dishing,
Puterson of New Jersey, Chase of Mary
land, Washington of Virginia, nail
Moore of North Carolina. Their places
wero supplied by W. Johnson in 1S0I,
Livingston in 1800, Duval and Story In
1811, Thompson in 18S1. A seventh
judge, Todd of Kentucky, was added
by act of Congress in 1807, who wassitc
coeded by Trimble In 1821. From lsl
four of tho six Judges wore of tho slavo
States, and from 1S07 tho slave Statin
had live of seven an ample guaranty
for the rights, interests, and will of tli.it
favored section.
Tho third period begins with Jack
son's administration, during which tho
personnel of tho court was almost en
tirely changed. Of his appointment
wero M'Loan, of Ohio, In 183); Bald
win, of Pennsylvania, in 1S.'10 ; Wayne,
of Georgia, In lS:f ; Barbour, of Vir
ginia, and Taney, Chief-Justice, in 1S!W
a large majority of the court. By tho
substitution of two Northern for-two
Southern Judges, the South retained a
bare majority, in the preponderance of
tin; Chief-Justice. Two judges wero ad
ded by act of Congress in 18:17 Catron
of Tennessee and M'Kinlcy of Alabama
making tho whole court consist of
nine judges. Mr. Wayno is tho only
ono of tho Jackson court now remain
ing on tho Bench. Vacancies were sup
plied by Daniel iu 1811, Nelou and
Woodbury in 1813, Oder in 1S1G, Curtis
in 1S.11, Campbell in island Cllnoril
in 18-1.S, but these nuilo no change in
tho constitution am! ciuuraeter of the
court, down to tlieiuauguratiuief Presf
dent Lincoln in 1801. This closes tho
third period, although Chief-Justice.
Taney presided until 1801.
Tho fourth period begins with tho ad
ministration of President Lincoln, who
appointed Swayne of Ohio, Miller of
Iowa and Davis of Illumis, In ISO:!;
Field rf CSulifunifni En 1K1SS; and Chivo
of Ohio, Chief-Justice, in 1801 again a
majority of the court appointed: by one
man. Tho history c Uks Chase Court
