Thanksgiving Day in Pennsylvania,
Itutuisnuno, Oct. 21.,,-The Governor
has issued the following proclamation :
In the name and by the authority
of the Commonwealth of Pennsylva
nia, AnOrew Cgrtin, Governor of
the said Commonwealth,
A PROCLAMATION.
WHEREAS, it }s a good thing to ren
der thanks unto God for all his mercy
and loving kindness; therefore,
I, Andrew G. Curtin, Governor of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
do recommend that Thursday, the 27th
day of November next, be set apart
by the people of this Commonwealth
as a day of solemn Prayer and Thanks
giving to the Almighty—giving Him
humble thanks that he has been gra
ciously pleased to ptoteat:our free in
stitutions and Government, and to
keep us from sickness and pesti,lence—
and to cause the earth to bring forth
her increase, so that our garners are
choked wjtb the harvest—and to look
so favorably on the toil of his child
ren, that industry has thriven among
us, and labor has its reward; and also
that He has delivered us from the
hands of our enemies, and filled our
officers and men in the field with a
loyal and intrepid spirit, and given
them victory—and that he has poured
out upon us (albeit unworthy) other
great and manifold blessings.
Beseeching Him to help and govern
us in his steadfast fear and love, and
to put into our minds good desires, so
that by his continual help we Lay
have a right judgment in all - things;
qud especially, praying him to give to
Christian Churches grads to hate the
thing which is evil, and 1,0 utter the
teachings of truth and righteousness,
declaring openly the whole counsel of
God; and most heartily entreating
Him to bestow upon our civil rulers
wisdom, and earnestness, and counsel,
and upon our military', leaders zeal and
vigor in action, that 'the fires of rebel
lion may be quenched—that we, being
armed with His defence, may be pre
served fi•om all perils, and that Ip
aftei• our people, living in peace 'and
qnietnegi, njay, from generation to
generation, reap the abundant fruits of
His mercy, and with joy and thank
fulness praise and magnify His holy
name.
Giyen under my hand and the great
sell f the State, at Harrisburg, this
W*6116001 day of October, in the

Hear Three Democratic Soldiers Talk.
At a late grand Union rally at Chi
cago, General Prentiss, Colonel Lynch
and Captain Gregg, all of whom have
been prisoners since the battle of Shi
loh until within a few days, addressed
the immense audience. Gen. Prentiss
gave a long and deeply -interesting
narrative of the sufferings of himself'
and companions in captivity, and the
meanness and barbarism of the rebels
—more fully stated, but substantially
the same as that he gayp in his speech
at Washington.
General Prentiss gave his sentiments
on political matters, as follows:
Lest I may he misunderstood, let me
toll you Republicans, I am no Itepab
lican ; Democrats, I run no Democrat.
lam a soldier of my country. [Pro
digious cheering.] 1 hold in my hand
an Augusta paper, ono of some thirty
or forty others J have in my posses
sion, with articles similar to this one.
[Cries ,of "Read it," "Read it."] This
is the Augusta Daily Constitutional,
published in Augusta, Georgia. It is
the oldest paper i n the southern States,
the one which has the greatest cireula
gon, and is looked upon, next to the
Richmond Enquirer, as the organ of
the Confederacy. It is a studied ef
fort of these people to divide us here
in the North, to have the West separ
ate from the East. They continually
talk about this. They say, "We like
you Western men, for you fight better
than them cussed Yanaces; we know
we can't whip you, but we can whip
the Yankees two to one." This article
is headed " The Great West," and if it
hurts any of you, don't blame, me, for
you voted that I should read it.
"There is, however, evidently in the
West, and particularly in Ohio, India
na and Illinois, a strong opposition in
the present war upon the South. The
tone of the press m those States, the
public meetings, and the Democratic
conventions, all prove this goal:elusively.
This feeling does not display itself as
boldly opposed to the war per se, but
assumes the form of opposition to abol
itionism, coercion and sabjugation. It
would not be safe to exhibit it othoP
wise, for in that event tee individuals
giving expression to it would soon find
themselves incarcerated within the
walls ofsomo Yankee Pasille, and their
opposition thus speedily and effectual
ly crushed out. But by professing de
votion to the Union, the Constitution,
and the Administration of Abraham
Lincoln, they call organize thoroughly
for work, and thus secure a way to
triumph in the approaching fall elec
tions."
That article proceels to the length
of a column in the same strain, allu
ding—furl will - mention the 'names—
to Carlisle of Western Virginia, Vor
hees of Indiana, Richardson of Illinois,
and Vallandigham of Ohio. [Sensa
tion.] Their papers aro full of it.—
They look upon you tender-footed
souls as traitors to your country. Do
you want to help these men to murder
your brothers and break up this Goy
ernmeut ? If so, in the name of lieu.
yen, lot us know it, and the Shiloh pri
soners will send you down South where
you belong. We came home hilly de

We are determined to tell the fru*
Hero around me aro ninny of these
men, my comrades, Republicans and
Democrats, some of whom went south
as apologists for these men. Some
Missourians and slaveholders were with
me in prison. We all came home.—
Well, call us abolitionists if you please,
or anything else. [Applause.] I tell
you the slaves in the South are better

Every little act of kindness that these

' Lynch spoke v.ith great earnest
ness. We give a' sh'ort extract;
I hardly need tell you that:l have

Democrat. ' I hnave been an apologist
for the soatherri people. I pronounced
the 'stories of their erg cities to he grosg
fabrications. I Considered the Aboli
tionists and Republicans the enemies of
the Union. / will not say so now.
While I was confined in the Madison
prison the officers were allowed but
two rations poi; day, those rations con

This bread was made of mdal*t}nd wit-

roasted on one side and thdn ou the
other. It was very hard on the out
side, (laughter,) and very soft on the
inside. We used to pitch quoits with
these cakes. [Renewed laughter.]—
They pronounced that gentlemanly
treatment? These were the mon I
apologized for, the men I treated in a
gentlemanly manner at Donelson.

this glorious Union, would take a regi
iiient of niggcrs, and march into Dixie.
[lmmense applause.] Every party
should ho merged jut° one. There
should be no Republicans, no Demo
crats. Every man should sacrifice Ws
personal fbelings. I was opposed to
414rahatn Lincoln ; I am now opposed
to every ipan who opposes Abraham
Lincoln.
Captain Gregg was equally emphat
ic. We give a single paragraph :
This war must be carried on differ
ently. This Union must and shall be
preserved whether the, "nigger" is
preserved or not. [lmmense applause.]
Why, the rebels spit upon your Con
stitution. I hear it said hp here, " you
musp stand by the Constitution." Why,
the rebels won't take that Constitution.
If you should hang Wendell Phillips
and all other Abolitionists to-morrow,
Jeff Davis wouldn't thank you for it.—
Why, we are all Abolitionists. [Pro
longed cheering.] I tell you, I've been
through the mill, and I wish that eve
ry sympathizer in the North had to go,
through the same mill. I wish they
were compelled to go over the tour I
have. You may take my head for a
foot-ball if they didn't change their
notions. If it were necessary to free
every negro in the Sout4 to save the
Union, I would do it.
A Judicial View of the Emancipation
Effl
Theophilus Parsons, in a letter to
the Boston Advertiser, says:
There are three (*notion& e9neern
ing the President's e r mancipation proc
lamation. One, has he a constitution
al power to issue it, as a civil, political
or administrative act ? - The second,
Wai it expedient ? The third, Has he
constitutional power as Commander-in-
Chief to issue it, at this time, as a mil
itary act ? These (potions are per
fectly distinct. One of the most com
mon and most fruitful pauses of error
upon all subjects is the mingling of
questions which are distinct in them
selves, but so near each other that they
confuse °spit other. Let us separate
these questions. I am sure that the
President has no power to emancipate
a single slave, as a civil, political or
administrative net. Was it expedient?
I Icavo this question to the President,
for he is honest, lie is capable; he has
considered the question long, carefully
and painfully, and in all the relations
in which it can present itself. How
ever wise I may be, or Judge Curtis
may be, on this subject, the President
must be wiser, or all rules of probabil
ity fail. As to the remaining ques
tions, I have not the slightest dqubt of
hie constitutional power as Clomman
der in Chief, tr, i this proclamation
as a military_net. 'lf lAalleelc, when
before Corhlth, haw() sept a force
a Lemke(' miles to catch and bring
into his lines a hundred negroes with
the wagons, horses, and provisions they
were bringing to Beauregard, the Pres
ident and Commander in Chief; sitting
in the center, with wider views, wider
necessities, and wider rights to meet
those uccessities, may, if he can, pre
vent the whole mass of Slaves from
laboring to feed the rebellion. 13.0 may,
if he can, by the danger of insurreetiOn,
or of starvation, or of loss of property,
dis4earten the rebels and drive their
armies home. To say otherwise, would
he to say that he might 4tyil. - e at re
bellion, but must be careful riot to
strike away its corner-stone. Can he
do it in fact? This question touches
the expediency of the measure, and
this I leat-e to him. But it does not
touch his inilitary right, to threaten it,
and to do it if he can.
A Rebel' General Abandoning the
Cause.
[Correspondence of the Cincinnati Gazette.
Sr. Louis, Oct. 23.—The Republican
of yesterday morning contains a brief
announcement that Brig. Gen. Edwin
Price, son of Major General Sterling ,
Price, has resigned his commission in
the Confederate service. He was at
the headquarters of Gen. Curtis night
before last, and stated that ho consid
ered the cause of the rebels hopeless,
and the speedy crushing of the instil--
'roc Lion a certainty. lie said tinif, his
father went into the \kat . reluctantly,
was' new enlisted heart and soul
to fight until the independence of the
Confederacy was acknowledged, and
its suctiOses a6hieied. Theyqung
Man resigned his commission, and in
trusted it to Gen. Curtis tQ send thro'
the lines, to be forwarded to Richmond.
He announces his intention to go to his
home in Chariton, Mo., and take no
further part in the war. With an ap
pearance of full shiCerity, he tools the
oath of allegiance to the United States
in its strongest form. Those who
best know him are confident that he
will respect and observe if.' Like his
I father, he is said to possess ninny high
qualities of liencl heart, a'n ato held
inviolate his'soromn pledge.
' He assures us that we are greatly
underestimating the strength of the
rebels in Arkansas. He feels certain
that there are not less than 60,000 en
rolled west of the Mississippi, half fif
whom are supplied with arms and am
munition. A considerable quantity of
French and Engli"Sh muskets have re
cently run the blockade, and many of
them :have been sent west to Hindman
and 'Holmes. Of the large force in
Arkansas, the main strength is under
Hindman and Holmes, and is station
otl Duvall's Bluff and' Little, and
between these points, as I informed
you in my letters several clays ago.—
As I previously Stilted,' •Mb4iNS' Par
sons is moving in the direction' aeSalena,
with from to twelve 'thousand
men. 116 w -this fiirCe is to be 4ubsisted
in Arkansas is no less a puzzle to the
ex-rebnl than it is to all of us who have
been studying the situation in the:South
west." That it mist take a dash into
Missouri, or starve and fall to pieces
where' it is, is a fact that cannot be
doubted.

and for poor Miss —, who, when I
last saw her, sbowed me his carte de

dore nor her aunt knew or suspected
anything or the matter. Every per
son here, is in mourning, except my
self, and I only not so because.l can
not find materials, and hope soon to
be allowed to go North, as Gen.
has half promised mo passage under

cf the Admiral Dupont's squadron.—
Our'little'diir/Vng is sadly in noel of
shoes, her only present foot covering
being little carpet slippers, with car

becoming plentiful again, such as it is

although it is admitted hero by all

You cannot think how bitterly the
North is ridiculed here, and all my ef
forts to defend it only end in mot:lift
cation and consciousness that those
who think otherwise have the best of
the argument. It is now the regular
habit to send so-called "deserters " in

They have here la private circula

given, they say, by McClellan to his
friend, Major General G. W. Smith,
whose health is now quite recovered,
though at the expense of his mind,
which will never be again what it was.

and orders were given to shoot me
down if fired upon by bushwhackers,

they would be fired upon if the people
had any spirit, and I believed they
had. When they saw the conflagra

number was ten times greater. After

Before we reached the woods, the
captain of the men that took me pris

near the rear. immediately upon en
tering the woods they were fired up
on. I was surprised I was not shot.
Morgan rode past and demanded the
reason I was not shot as he ordered.—
They said they had not heard the or

to shoot tire prisoner. They then
amused thomselves by, pointing their
guns at me and saying they wished
they could hear a gun, that they might
have thdPeastire of shooting me. Af
