to relieve our beloved country from the
scourge of civil war, and to permit us to se
cure the blcssii.gs of peace, unity and har
mony, with a great enlargement of civil lib
erty ; and whereas, our Heavenly Father has
also, during the year, graciously preserved
us from the calamities of foreign" war, while
our granaries are full ; and whereas, right
eousness) vxalteth a nation, while siu is a
reproach to any people :
A'oie, therefore. I, Andrew Johnson, Presi

mend to the people thereof-that they do set
tpart and observe the nrtt Thursday of De
cember as ft day of National Thanksgiving to
the Creator of the Universe for these deliver
ances and blessings ; and I do furthermore
recommend thai on that occasion the whole
people make a confession of sins against His
infinite greatness, and, with one heart and
one mind, implore Divine guidance in the
ways of National virtue and holiness.
J a testimony whereof I have hereunto set
my hand and caused the seal of tha United

Foreign Relations.
The Into foreign news is of importance,
as it discus.-cs imj ortarit questions at issue
between Englaud and the Uuited States.
London papers have published the cor
respondence between Karl Hussel and Mr.
Seward, relative to the ravages of the
Alabama and Shenandoah. 31 r. Seward,
in a dispatch dated April 7th, calls Itus
sd'a attention to the ravages of the Sben
r.ndoah, and fays that lor the damages
caused by said cruiser, our government
cannot help entailing the responsibility
upon the government of Great riiian.
Karl 11. replies that the question is not
of damages, but whether the Queen's
government have faithfully and honorably
pcrlormcd the duties which intertatior.ai
law and their municipal laws imposed
upon them.
The reply of Mr. Adams is dated the
4th. He repeats that the insurgents be
came belligerents on the ocean solely by
the facilities furnished in Her Majesty's
ports. lie complains of the secret sym
pathy ot Her Majesty's officers in the port
cf Liverpool, and contends that after the j
information which he supplied respecting
the Alabama, it was by the flagrant negli
ptnee of Her Majesty's IJoard of Customs
that lli ir vessel, admitted to be intended
lor war purpose:?, was suffered to depart
from Liverpool.
After three months, Karl Russel pro
cccd? to justify his government, and t
declare that it cannot submit the matter
to arbitrament. The Crown officers alone
are the ones to define Eritish Law. Iler
Majesty's Government, are, however,
ready to consent to the appointment of a
commission, to which stall be referred ai
claims arising; during the late civil war,
which the two powers shall agree to refer
to the commissioa.
Mr. Adams' reply to it, Sept. ISth, is
verv serious in tone. He considers there
is now no dispute to the fact that the
recognition of the South as belligerents
yt&A such an net as was never done by any
nattcu towards another in a state of ami'y.
lie chavg- s the British Government with
having acted without knowledge and upon
mere presumption in assuming the exis
tence of the blockade. The blockade, he
favs, was the conscrjucnee, not the canst.
ol the Uritish policy, lie thinks the
only excuse for the conduct of tfce British
Governu'Ctit was that it was precipitate,
and tie inimates that if the doctrine and
practice ot the Jnitish Government are
ullowed to become the rule, the United
Slates 'vill not be the greatest loser by
ihcm. Mr. Adams docs Jjot orijcar to
think that E-rl Hussein refusal to lifer
the question to a commission, will bo ap
proved by bis Government.
The English papers comment upon
this correspondence a? one that may en
dan"er the amicable relations at pres
ent 'existing between the two govern
ments. Iu this connection, it is not amiss to
mention tb.'t it is reported that Caleb

connection with the question of indemnity.

The Advance ofllic Cholera.
The New York Post submits a brief
chronological sketch of the progress of
the cholera ccro-a Europe. The first
noteworthy remark concerning the out
break is found in papers of July 3, where
appeared a paragraph dated Florence.
J une 17, to the effect "that in consequence
of information rcc3ived by the ministr'
that cholera is prevailing in Kgypt, pre
cautionary measures have been ordered in
regard to alvesse's arriving from Egypt
ian ports." This was a mere general pre
caution, but in a week more we read that
the disease continued its ravages at Alex
andria. ''Tho deaths, up to June 20.
number one thousand and thirty-four, and
twenty thousand inhabitants are said to
have left the city." Later advices up to
June !28 reported continued ravages both
at Alexandria and Cairo, but the epidemic
was thought to be assuming a less alarm
ing type.
On the 27th it was reported that the
number of deaths at Alexandria on the
1'Jth wa fifty-five, and at Cairo on the
12ih fory-tIme, but that the disease was
sensibly abating in that vicinity. Four
days later the United States consul at
Palermo, Sicily, reported that the direc
tor general had ordered the exclusion of
all vessels arriving from Alexandria and
Malta, and that there was considerable
panic in Palermo, but as yet no case of
disease, except in one instance a man
who was lauded lrom Alexandria sick,
hod died.
The 2d of August brought news that
the cholera had almost disappeared from
Alexandria ; and that it was then de
creasing in Constantinople. A wewk later
the abatement at Alexandria was confirm
ed, but the disease continued to spread in
Constantinople, the deaths averaging fifty
per day. On the 1 ifh thirty eases had
been reported at Valentin, on the eastern
coast of Spain, and it had also appeared
at-camp Gibraltar. The next advices,
printed a day later, reported the disease
in Italy. It was at Ancona, a town on
the Gulf ot Venice, in about the same
latitude as Florence. The deaths on the
4th of August there were thirty-four;
and about tins lime the State Department
was advised by the consul at Port Mahon,
Island of Miuorca, that he had received
official notification of the appearance of
cholera oa the Spanish coast.
A London correspondent reported Aug
12th : "The ehoieia is carrying off eight
hundred to one thousand per day at Con
stantinople. It is at Malta aud Ancona,
and is said to be spreading in Italy.
There is a report of its appearance at
Marseilles." The same mails which bio't
this letter brought information ot contin
ued fearful ravages at Ancona, fifty-two
deaths having occurred there on the 0th
of August, and seven hundred and eighty
one in all up to the 12th. The London
Times of August 19th, in an editorial
commenting at sime length upon reports
thus far received, and upon a meeting re
cently held in London to consider the
matter, said : "There exist1? unquestion
ably at the present moment nearly all the
symptoms by which cholera has generally
teen preceded. The disease i travelling
in the same sort of epidemic waves as has
formerly marked its approach. From
Alexandria it has moved forward to Con
stantinople, Malta, Ancona, VaUntia and
3Iarseilles, and quarantine regulations
are proving as ineffectual as usual. The
time of year m which it threatens agrees
with former experience. The great out
break of 1S4S-0 began by a slight attack
in the autumn of the former year; the
disease subsided during the winter, a'd
reappeared in its utmost violence in the
following spring and s-ummer."
On the 12th of August the United
States consul at Port Mahon wrote :
"Should the advance of the disease con
tinue for the next twenty days it must be
looked for in England. Ou the COih of
AuL'Ust twenty-uine deaths were reported
in Marseilles ; on the following day, thirty
eight. September 27ih. the disease in
Marseilles was reported on the increase.
The latest advices are lrom the consul at
Port Mahon, who tolls us that the prov
ii,"!; of Palermo, SieUy a province of
which little has been said in this connec
tion- tC'fluned fifty thousand inhabi
tants, but this number had, by disease
and flight, reduced to fifteen thousand,
while upon this re mount the cholera was
doing its work at the late of one hundred
and fifty per day. September 2Gth, fifty
three cholera deaths occurred at Touton,
and the latest report i that one death
, :lllt several cases oeeurrea t Southamp-
tori on the liSth. If this l0
the dis
ease has already crossed the British
Chaunelj and thus the ghastly record
euds for the present.
Let the peculiar manner in which chc1
cra has bern travelling during the sum
mer be noted. From Egypt to Constan
tinople,, trom Constantinople to Malta,
Palermo, Valetitia, and Ancona, racing
with greatest fury at the lat named plaen;
thc-nce leaping the Mediterranean to Mar
seilles and Toulon ; and uow (as is re
ported) appearing on the coast of Eng
land ; dying out. at one pbee and reap
pearing at another further westward,
pursu'mg persistently its slow aud resistless
march.
If anybody thinks that water h an ef
fectual barrier let him remember that the
cholera season of 1S4S-9 began with a
t light attack in the autumn of the former
yeuf- subsiding during the winter, and
reappL.jred in its utmost violence in the
following sprint; and summer. Should
notour citiztn? n'-'d public authorities re
member that fhs ci'Y has no guarantee

of Jeff.
51 a:: J.
Davis at
Is has transpired that as early as in
August lust, it was decided at a Cabinet
meeting to proceed with the trial of Jeff.
Davis on the charge of treason, and the
conclusion of the trial of Wirz has been
waited for to commence the business.
Those who have been expending their in
dignation over the delay, fancied faithless
ness to pledges and the waut of back-bone
in the President and the Administration,
aro again admonished of the folly and in
justice of rushing to conclusions without
knowledge, aud wo now perceive how
precisely right were those who have all
aloug said that tli2 Government c:mld not
bo expected to expose everything in ad
vance, but that it rcusfc be trusted, at
least till it had proved itself unworthy of
confidence. Some men thera are who
will never learn anything, but it docs
seem tha this new admonition must teach
most men that in the affairs of trovemment
there may bo many things not confided to
their keening, which in due time will
come forth, discomfiting thoso who could
not restraiii theif impal ience, and putting
to shams others who indulged iu their
distrust.
The trial, it is asserted, will-be before
the Supreme Court at Washington, Chief
Justice Chase presiding, and it is &aid
lurther, that Davis will be tried as if still
a U. S. Senator; his State having nullified,
and not repealed the ordiuauce of acces
sion. At any rate, the charge will be
treason, and the specifications few in num
ber. A New York JLr..hl special says :
"The purpose of the Government is not
merely to punish Davis, but to define the
nature of treason, fix its punishment, re
veal the cruelties of which it has been the
fruitful source, aud establish a legal prec
edent for the future which will be a terror
to traitors hereafter, and forever disgrace
the treason which for a time was respec-
table by reason of its power and formida- .
blc proportions. The Attorney General
has sh e'ed the counsel to aid him in the
prosecution, and Mr. Davis has been al
lowed to select his attorneys. Mr. Speed
will be assisted in the prosecution by Major-General
Lovell II. Rousseau f Ken
tucky, Hon. Wm. M. Kvartsof Xew York,
and Hon. John II. Clifford of Massachu
setts. Mr. Kvarts disputes with Charles
O'Connor, the principal lawyer of Mr.
Davis, lor the front rank among the law
yers ot Xew York, lie is probably the
ablest criminal lawyer retained in the case.
31 r. Clifford was Attorney Geueral of
Massachuse'. is, and won his first legal
laurels as the proecu'.or of Webster lor
the murder of Dr. Park man, in 1S50.
General Itou??.cau and 31 r. Speed are well
known to the public. Charles O'Conner
will be assisted by Rausom II. Gillet, So
licitor of the Treasury Department in
Ruchanau's days. It is stated that Mr.
Davis declares his intention to couduct
his case in person." ,

Thc Secretary of State knows, of course,
more than any other man about the For
eign relations of our Government, and he
shows the evidence o' being the proper
man to know it; that ho is not osteuta- i
t'ons of his knowledge, nor prone to pre- .
maturely publish it to the worlu. Jn his
speech at Auburn, Mr. Seward's home
aud speaking ground, he gives an intima
tion that had much of reasonably signifi
cant meaning :
"With whatever jealousy we may ad
here to our inherited principles ol avoid
ing entangling alliances with foreign na
tions, the United States must continue to
exercise, :;s always be lore our civil war
they did exercise, a just and beneficent
influence in the international conduct of
foreign States, particularly those which
arc near to us on this continent, and
which aie especially endeared to us by
their adoption of republican institutions.
That just influence of ours was impaired,
as ought to have been apprehended by
the American people, when they fell into
the distractions ot civil war. With the
return of peace, it is comiug back to us
again, in greater strength than ever. I
am sure that this important interest has
not bi'tn lost sight of by the President of
the Uuited States for a single moment,
and I expect that we shall see republican
institutions, wherever they have been
heretofore es!ablished throughout the
American continent, speedily vindicated,
renewed and invigorated."
This shows that these matters are not
overlooked, while the Government is busy
about other affairs. The prospect in the
direction indicated we do uot under.-tand
to be darkened with any war clouds.

. achievements. The propagandism ol their

The Trial
Tlie Dead at Andersonvillc.
Capt. J. M. Moore, Assistant Quarter
master, who was detailed to proceed to
Andersonville, to re-bury the Union dead
there, and mark their graves, for future
identification, has just returned from that
place, and has sent his report to the Quar
termaster General. It contains much of
interest to those who had friends or rela
tions murdered in that notorious slaughter
pen. Capt. Moore confirms all the stories
cf the barbarities perpetrated there
lie commenced on the morning of July
20. h, the work of identifying the grave3,
painting and lettering the head-boards,
laying out walks and enclosing the ceme
tery, and on the evening of August 16th,
finished hi? work. The dead were found
buried in trenches ou a site selected by
the rebels, about thirty yards lrom the
stockade. The trenches were, from two to
three feet below the suiface, and, in sev
eral instances, where rains had washed
away the eart'i, but a few inches. Addi
tional earth was, however, thrown in the
graves, making them of still greater depth.
So close. were ihey buried, without coffins
or ordir.ary clothing to cover their naked
ness,, that, nci more than twelve iuches
were allowed to each man.
The graves had been marked by a sim
ple stake at the head ot each, each slake
beariug a number corresponding with a
number set opposite a name on the An
dersonville Hospital record. Capt. Moore
was thus enabled to identify 12,400 graves,
each of which he marked with a neat tab
let bearing the number, uame, rank, regi
ment, &c, of the occupaut, aud the date
of his death. There wore 407 graves
which could not ba identified ; these were
marked with the inscription, "Unknown
United States soldiers."
The cemetery contains filiy acres, and
ias joen
divid
cu
by one maiu avenue
running through the center, and subdivi
ded into blocks and sections in such man-
ner that with the ail of the record visitors
will have no difficulty in fiuding any grave
A force of men arc engaged in laying out
the walks and clearing the cemetery of
stumps,, preparatory to plauling trees and
flowers. Appropriate inscriplions are
placed throughout the grounds, and ar
rangements made so far as facilities would
permit to trauspose this wild and uuhon
ored graveyard into a fit place of repose
for the nation's gallant dead. At the en
trance, the words "X'atiouai Ccnictcry,
Andersonville, Georgia," demote the title
of this city of the dead.
The noted prison pen was not disluibed,
the stockade being left standing, and ev
erything remains as when our e-manciited
and starving prisoners were confined there.
Any one who will even now vUit Ander
sonville and examine the stockade, with
its oozy sand, cramped acd wretched bur
iows, the dead line and slaughter-house,
! must be a callous observer, indeed, if he
is not convinced that the miseries de
picted of this prison pen are no exaggera
tions. Constitutional Amendsuent.
The constitutional amendment, pro
posed by Congress, abolishing slavery
throughout the United States, has bee n
ratified by the following States, at the

It is expected that Colorado (the new

and that enough of the reconstructed
Southern Siates will before long do the
same, thus settling the matter.
Gonc Ui Again. The notorious
Johnston M'Kee, at one time a resident
of Hollidaysbui-g, passed through Altooua
ou Thursday night last, in custody of the
Sheriff of Clinton county, on his way to
Pittsburg, charged with "shoviug" coun
terfeit Uuited States currency. We be
lieve he was arrested at Lo:k Haven, and
the evidence of his guilt was found in his
possession in the shape of some $20,000
in counterfeit notes of various denomina
tion?. M'Kee has already served two
terms in the Western aud one in the
Eastern Penitentiary for robbery and pis
sing counteitcit money, and the probabil
ities now are that he will be afforded an
opportunity ot serving the State lor the
balauce of his natural life.
Down on tub Free Masons. The
Pope has again pronounced an allocution
which is making some stir in Europe.
This timo he warns the faithful against
the Tree Masons, reminding them that
, several of his predecessors have proscribed
and reproved that 8ecl, the entrance into
which they declared should entail ex-
j communication, which the Pope alone
, could remove. The Pope denounces the
j Free Masons as the instigators of revolu-
i .. i. i.
tions, anu cans on iuu tecuiui jjourn
ujents to suppress them. The Siecle of
Paris calculate that there are in Europe
more than 2,000,000 Catholic Free Ma
sons who do not seem to heed much the
thunderbolts oT the Vatican.
fiSfThe Cleri: of the House, Mr. Mc
pherson, takes the ground tha, &o far as
he is concerned, it is douo of his business
to settle the question of the eligibility of
the Southern member?, and he will not
put them upon the official roll. He in
terprets the entire action of Congress as
aaiust any recognition of the clamants
from the llebel States on Jus-part. In
short, he leaves tho entire question to
Congress.
The Surveyor Generalship.
"We are glad to 'see that Cols. Camp
bell and Linton, the rival candidates for
Surveyor General, both of whom are res
idents of our own Mountain County, have
come out of the late contest with the
whiteness ot their souls untouched. The
pool of politics is a troubled, muddy one,
and those who can bathe therein and yet
come out clean are entitled to especial
honor.
The Johnstown Tribune, the home or
gan of Col. Campbell, says :
"The Union candidate for Surveyor
General conies out of the fire of the late
campaign with his honor untarnished and
his good name preserved. He resorted to
no trick, no falsehood, no misrepresenta
tion to secure success. He is to-day the
same honorable, high-toned and manly
Jake Campbell that he was before his
fellow citizens of the Union party dreamed
of nominating him as one of tlieir standard-bearers.
His vote here might have
been larger than it was it might have
been much in excess of that given for his
gallant colleague on the State ticket,
Gen. Harlranft if he had made his own
popularity and merits the test to bu de
cided. Hut he did not do this, nor would
j he allow lib friends to do it for him. lie
j stood solely as the representative of Union
j 2rinc'p?('8. Wherever he went and when
j ever he spoke he placed the endorsement
of the platform cf his party far above his
own individual advancement. And we
do not hazard anything in saying that the
disappointment of the Davis party in
Cambria county is mainly owing to his in
dividual advocacy of the principles em
braced iu the Union'platform."
The Johnstown Democrat, the home
organ of Col. Linton, says :
"Col. John P. Linton has conic out cf
this contest like gold from the alembic,
tried and found pure. Although he is
not on the winning side, yet his intrinsic
worth is appreciated and acknowledged at
home. All the appliances of wealth, of
secret organizations, .of the industrious
circulation of malicious falsehoods, could
not drive this people from his pupport.
They know hia, and they can point with
pride to the result in his native ion.
"All honor to the Fcarred and heroic
soldier, the brave and pure patriot, and
the honest man."
