A PROCLAMATION li'i of (he United States of America: Whereas, it has pleased Almighty God, during the year which is now coming to an end, to relieve our beloved country from the fearful scourge of civil war, and to per mit us to secure the blessings of peace, unity and harmony, with a great enlarge ment of civil liberty ; and Whereas, our Heavenly Father has, also, during the year, graciously averted from us the calamities of foreign war, pestilence and famine, while our granaries are full of the fruits of an abundant season ; and UTiercas, righteousness exalteth a nation, while sin is a reproach to any people ; Now, therefore, 1 ANDREW JOHNSON, Pres ident of the United States, do hereby rec ommend to the people thereof, that they do set apart and observe the First Thursday of December as a day of National Thanks giving to the Creator of the Universe for these deliverence and blessings. And I do further recommend that on that occasion the whole people make confession of our national sins against His infinite goodness, and with one heart and one mind implore the Divine guidance in the ways of national virtue and holiness. I testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand, and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. Done at the City of Washington this twenty-eight day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty five and of the independence of the United States the ninetieth. ANDREW JOHNSON. By the President, WM. H. SEWARD, Secretary of State. Washington. Oct. 28, 18G5. THE PRESIDENT'S VIEWS. We print elsewhere the report of a con versation had between the President of the United States and Maj. George L. Stearns, of Massachusetts. The conversation, as will be seen, was elicited by the suggestion that the Democratic party claimed Mr. Johnson as still being of the faith of its leaders, and that he sympathized with their efforts for suceess. To this remark, the President in reply, conveys a geutle rebuke to such dem agogues as Jerry Black, by declaring that he (the President) is far in advance of the leaders of the Democratic party, and that the only way to effect a un'on between him self and that party, was the Democrats coming up to his standard of right, which really means that the Democracy must re nounce all their present advocated dogmas before they dare hope to be recognized as right. The President then reeuunciatcd his doctrine that, notwithstanding the so called secession of certain States,they were never out of the Union, but that by their re bellious course they had forfeited their civil government, to reconstruct the machinery of which as soon as practicable he considers the chief duty of the time. This he says, cannot he done in a moment ; but such great and happy progress is being made in it that the results sometimes appear to him like a dream. He did not expect to forever deprive of their former civil rights even a majority of those who were excluded in the amnesty proclamation; but he intended that they should sue for pardon, and thus realize the enormity of their crime. He is in favor of allowing those negroes who have served in the army, those who can read and write, and those who are possessed of certain other qualifications, to vote, but does not think it is politic or th it he has the right to force these conditions on the white people of the South, though he be lieves that they will ere long concede this privilege to the freedmen. FOREIGN NEWS. —The steamship Africa, from Liverpool Oct. 14, via Queenstown Oct. 15, arrived at Halifax yesterday,bring ing two days later news from Europe. The fjundvn Tims*, Post, News and Herald agree iu regarding Earl Russell's proposi tion for a joint commission to examine the claims arrising during our late war as the best and only way of ending the long con troversy. They all hope for an amicable solution of the difficulty. At an extraordinary meeting of the stock holders of the Atlantic Telegraph Company, held on Oct. 12, it was unanimously resolv ed to increase the capital to two millions sterling by the creation of 100,000 new shares at £5 each. The cable, both on board the Great Eastern and the submerged portion, have lately been tested, and found to be in perfect order. Numerous deaths from Asiatic cholera are reported at Epping, near London. The disease is also raging with great violence at Madrid. Two of the French Ministry, in a report to the Emperor, proposed an inter national commission, to extuuipe Hie origin of the cholera, and to study the best to prevent it ia future.

Kngtitsi purses are about to return home to roost in Ireland, A CONVERSATION WITH PRESIDENT JOHNSON BEDFORD, Mass., Oct. 8, 1865. MY DEAR SIR : I was so much impressed with our conversation of last Tuesday,that I returned immediately to my room and wrote down such of the points made as 1 could remember,and haviug pondered them all the way home, am to-day, more than ever, convinced that, if corrected by you and returned to me for either public or pri vate use, it will go far to promote a good understanding between you and our lead ing men. It will also unite the public mind in favor of your plan, so far at least as you would carry it out without modification. You are aware that I do not associate much with men in political life, but rather with those who, representing the advanced moral sense of the country, earnestly labor for the good of our people, without hope of, or even desire for office or other immediate reward. The latter class desire earnestly to understand your plans, and, if possible, support your adminiutration. I think the publication of your process of reconstruction, with the reasons for your faith in it, will commend itself to their can did judgment, and, as I told you, inspire our whole Northern people with confidence in your administration. The report is meager and unsatisfactory, but I think it conveys, for the most part, the spirit of our conversation. Therefore, although the whole tenor of your words led me to believe it was not intended to be kept private, I have refrained from answer ing the specific injuries of anxious friends, whom 1 met on my way home, lest 1 might, in some way, leave a wong impression on their minds. Truly your friend, GEORGE L. STEARNS. To the President of the United States. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 3— HI, A. M. I have just returned from an interview with President Johnson, in which he talked for an hour on the process of reconstruction of Rebel States. His manner was as cor dial, and his conversation as free, as in 1863, when I met him daily in Nashville, Tenn. His countenance is healthy, even more so than when I first knew him. I remarked, that the people of the North were anxious that the process of recon struction should be thorough, and they wished to support him in the arduous work, but their ideas were confused by the con flicting reports constantly circulated, and especially by the present position of the Democratic party. It is industriously cir culated in the Democratic Clubs that he was going over to them. He laughingly replied, "'Major, have you never known a man who for many years had differed from your views because you were in advance of him, claim them as his own when he came up to your stand-point ?" I replied, "I have often." He said, "So have I," and went on : " the Democratic party finds its old position untenable, and is coming to ours ; if it has come up to our position, lam glad of it. You and I need no preparation for this conversation ; we can talk freely on this subject, for the thoughts are familiar to us ; we can be per fectly frank with each other." He then commenced with saying that the States are in the Union, which is whole and indivisi ble. Individuals tried to carry them out, but did not succeed, as a man may try to cut his throat and be prevented by the bystand ers ; and you cannot say he cut his throat because he tried to do it. Individuals may commit treason, and be punished, and a large number of individu als may constitute a rebellion and be pun ished as traitors. Some States tried to get out of the Union, and we opposed it, honest ly, because we believed it to be wrong ; and we have succeeded in putting down the Rebellion. The power of those persons who made the attempt has been crushed, and now we want to reconstruct the State Gov ernments and the power to do it. The State institutions are prostrated, laid out on the ground, and they must be taken up and adapted to the progress of events; this cannot be done in a moment. We are mak ing very rapid progress, so rapid 1 some times cannot realize it ; it appears like a dream. We must not be in too much of a hurry; it is better to let them reconstruct them selves then to force them to it; for if they go wrong, the power is in our hands and we can check them at any stage, to the end, and oblige them to correct their errors ; we must be patient with them. I did not ex pect to keep out all who were excluded from the Amnesty, Qf even a large number of them, but 1 intended they should sue for pardon, and so realize the enormity of the crime they had committed. You could not have broached the subject of equal suffrage, at the North, seven years ago, and we must remember that the changes at the South have been more rapid, arid they have been obliged to accept more unpalatable truth than the North had ; we must give them time to digest a part, for we cannot expect such large affairs will be comprehended and digested at once. We must give them time to understand their new position. 1 have nothing to conceal in these mat ters, and have no desire or willingness to take indirect courses to obtain what we want. Our Government is a grand and lofty structure : in searching for its foundation we find it rests on the broad basis of pop ular rights. The elective franchise is not a natural right, but a political right. lam opposed to giving the States too much pow er,anil also to a great consolidation of pow er iu the Central Government. If 1 iuterferred with the vote in the Reb el States, to dictate that the negro shall vote, I might do the same tiling for my own purposes in Pennsylvania. Our only safe ty lies in allowing each State to control the right of voting by its own laws, and we have the powp* to control the Rebel States if they go wrong. If they rebel, we bave the army, and can control them by it, and, if necessary, by legislation also. If the General Government controls the right to vote in the States, it inay establish such rules as will restrict the vute to a small number of persons, and thus create a cen tral despotism. My poiiiou here is different from what it would be if 1 was in Tennessee. There I should try to introduce negro suifrugc gradually ; first those who had served iu the um.y t those who could read and write, and perhaps £ propyl tiou fbf others, say ?200 or $25,0. It would not Jo to let the negroes have universal suffrage now ; it would breed a lygr of rapes. herb was time in the Southern States when the slaves of large owners looked down upon non-slave-owners because they did not own slaves : the larger the number of slaves their masters owned, the prouder they were, and tjiis has produced hostility between the mass of the'whites and the ne groes. The out rages are inostlyfrom non slaveholding whites against flip negro, and from the negro upou the ijon-sjavehoiding whites. The negro will vote with the late master wtioyi he does not hate, rather than with the non-slaveholding white, whom he does hate. Universal Suffrage would create an other war, not against us, but a war of ra ces. Another thing. This Government is the freest and best on the earth, and I feel sure is destined to last ; but to secure this, we must elevate and purify the ballot. I for many years contended at the South that Slavery was a political weakness, but oth ers said it was political strength ; they thought we gained three fifths representa tion by it ; I contended that we lost two fifths. If we had 110 slaves, we should have had twelve Representatives more, according to the then ratio of representation by States, not districts, and the State apportions by districts Many years ago, I moved in the Legisla ture that the apportionment of Representa tives to Congress, in Tennessee, should be by qualified voters. The apportionment is now fixed until 1872 ; before that time we might change the basis of representation from population to qualified voters, North as well as South and in'due course of time, the States, vnth out regard to color, might extend the elec tive franchise to all who possessed certain mental, moral, or such other qualifications, as might be determined by an enlightened public judgment. BOSTON, Oct. 18, 1860. The above report was returned to me by President Johnson with the following in dorsement. GEORGE L. STEARNS. I HAVE READ THE WITHIN COMMUNICATION AND FIND IT SUBSTANTIALLY CORRECT. I HAVE MADE SOME VERBAL ALTERATIONS. (Signed) A. J. TO THE UNION MEN OF PENNSYLVANIA. ROOMS UNION" STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE, ) No. 1103 CHESNCT STREET, V PHILADELPHIA, October 19th, 1860. ) Auotber political contest has been deter mined by the freemen of Pennsylvania. The Uuion cause has again triumphed at the ballot box. Official returns have been re ceived from sixty-two of the sixty-six in the State. Of these fifty-four show gains for the Union cause over the vote of 1862. The aggregate gains over all losses are nearly twenty-five thousand. This will give our candidates on the home vote alone, major ities exceeding that given by army and home vote to our late lamented President i Lincoln. Of the seven Union Senators whose terms of office expire we have not lost one. The home vote has gained us one from the Op position in Luzerne, and the army vote will gain us another in Franklin and Adams. In the lower House we have retained all of our sixty-three members of last session. The home vote has added three to this number, and the army vote will give us one more. The Senate will stand twenty one to twelve, and the House sixty-seven to thirty-three, thus giving to us a major ity of forty-three 011 joint ballot. For these results, so gratifying to the ftieuds of our cause in Pennsylvania, and to all patriots throughout the nation, we are deeply indebted to the returned sol diers of the Union army, who have taught their friends and their foes that they know as well as they know how to fight bravely and heroically for the same cause. Much praise is due the press of the Union party throughout the State for its patriotic efforts in the good work. To the secretaries of the State Central Committee, Messrs. Uamersly and Bene dict, the loyal men of Pennsylvania are un der lasting obligations. Upon them de volved arduous and responsible duties, i Many of their labors are not witnessed or ever known to the public. They labored assiduously by day and by night for the success of the Union cause, to which they are both most devotedly attached. Every member of the Central Com mittee performed well his part, and co-op erated cheerfully und cordially with the chairman in promoting the success of the Union ticket. To the chairmen of the sev eral county committees it is conceded that j much of the credit of our triumph belongs, j To all the true and faithfui men of the j State, who so effectually discharged their | duties and made our triumph easy as well | as overwhelming, our most earnest and hearty thanks are extended. The defeat of our apoonents is thorough and disastrous. To them it was unexpec ted although well merited. Having op posed the war so happily and so gloriously terminated, they changed their policy, nom inated officers, and assumed to be the es pecial friends of the soldiers. They were confident and defiant. When we were si lent, they clamorously and imperiously de manded our views. When we spoke they charged that it was " puerile invective,'' They told their followers " that we were endeavoring to turn their flank," and called lustily upon them " to pierce our centre." Some of them retired with both flanks turned and their centre pierced The bal ance were made prisoners. Last year they assured their followers that the election had been carried at the point of the bayonet ; that military rule had interfered with the freedom of the elec tion, and that our country was fast verging towards a military despotism. That shal low pretext cannot avail them now. Supporting soldiers, they became the champions of deserters and refugees from the draft, To rally their desponding and disln artened forces they proclaimed that our President had become a convert to their views. They well knew the opinions of those who had elected him, and the princi ple of the platform upon which he stood, Yet they would gladly have induced him to abandon his friends and his principles in order that they might be restored to power. The spirit of slavery, secession and St&te sovereignty had assassinated one Presi dent within the past six months, and was trying to demoralize and steal another. The experiment failed ; the effort to make it has been terribly rebuked by the people, and the result is ihe complete demoraliza tion and overthrow of those who dared mis represent bur Chief Magistrate ju order to promote the success of their sinking cause, The oft-repeated and well established truth of history has again been vindicated. No man, in any country, can take sides against his Government when engaged in war, whether foreign or domestic, and re tain the confidence and respect of his fel low citizens after the termination of that war.

JOHN CESSNA, Chairman Union State Central Committee. Bkz&" The otlicial London Gazelle publishes an important correspondence between Mr. Adams and Earl Russell concerning the depredations committed by the Shenandoah. Mr. Adams gives once more notice that the United States will hold Great Britain responsible for all the damages caused by these Anglo-Rebel cruisers. Earl Russell, as in former replies, insists that England has not violated any interrational law, and, therefore, is not responsible for the Rebel cruisers In a second letter, Earl Russell mentions a statement made in a letter from Air Adams in April, 1863, as to the Govern ment of the United States being ready to refer these disputes to arbitration, and he declines to accept.this oiler. The only con cession Earl Russell is willing to make is the appointment of a Commission to which shall be referred all claims arrising during the late civil war, which the two powers shall agree to refer to the Commissioners. The final reply of Mr. Adams, dated Sep tember 18, is very serious in its tone, and expresses the opinion that the proposal of Earl Russell will not be accepted by the United States. Air. Adarns, in this last re ply, again calls the attention of the English Government to the fact that if its doctrines and practices are allowed to become the rule,the United States will not be the great est losers. The London papers which ed itorially refer to the correspondence speak of the importance of the international ques tions to be settled in this dispute, but do not appear to expect any serious complica tions between the two countries to arise therefrom. iXcu) wliiocrtisfirmtts.

Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Ague.Remittent Fevef, j Chill Fever, Hnmb Ague, Periodical Headache or liil j ious Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed for the whole class of diseases originating fn biliary derangement, | caused by the Malaria of miasmatic countries. Fever and Ague is not the only consequence of the I miasmatic poison. A great variety of disorders arise from its irritation, in malarious districts, among which are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache. Blindness, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpitation, Painful affection of the Spleen, Hysterics, Pain in the Bowels, Colic, Paralysis, and Derangement of the Stom ach, all of which, when originating in this cause put on the intermittent type, or some periodical. This •'Cure" expels the poison from the blood, and thus cures them all alike. It ig put only the most effectual remedy ever discovered for this class of complaints, but it is the cheapest and moreover is perfectly sate. No harm can arise from its use, and the putieut when cured is left as healthy as If he had never hid the disease. Can this be said of any other CHre for Chills and Fever ? it is true of this, aud its importance to those afflicted with the cumplaint cannot be over estimated. So sure is it to cure the Fever and Ague, that it may be truthfully said to be a certain remedy. One dealer complains that it is not good medicine to sell, because one bottle cures a whole neighborhood. Prepared by J. C. AYKR&CO., Lowell, Mass., TND sold by Dr. H. C. Porter, Towanda.also by fll druggists and dealers iu medicine everywhere. Oct. 9, '6s—2a.
