Thanksgiving. Every human being in the United State® of North America, even though his or her condition be u desperate m was that of i Miss Hannah, whoee story we print on our first page, can, if they wish, find some material advantage for which they can ex press thanks to the Supreme Being. All nations have their distinctively national holidays, and Thanksgiving Day and Decoration Day are ours. It seems that the New Englanders observed ttpuf' sort of a Thanksgiving Day bejflrf the Revolution, and that after evolution the Presidents of the, United States occa sionally selected-S day for the giving of Ihink-V the Creator for some special providence, or lor fasting and prayer if the Nation was is distress, but it was not until the days of the civil war, when Abraham Lincoln was President, that a day was ■elected towards the elora of each year, for fasting, prayer and thanksgiving. In those days fasting and prayer may have been the chief features of the day, but now that the Nation has become wealthy and prosperous, and is at peace with all the world, the composition and preparation of the dinner for that day, the physical enjoyment to be derived from eat ing it, and the social enjoyment connected with the affair occupy our minds more than any thoughts of gratitude. However, the people of this Nation have e ause to be gratefbl for their prosperity, f or civil and religious liberty, for equality before the law, and for all the advantages that our climate, soil, free government, education and intelligence bring us. The people of Bnt.'er county can be especially gratefnl for the continued de velopment of its mineral resources, for the invisible fuel that heats our dwellings and runs our factories; and we can pray that our character for morality, sobriety and in telligence may be maintained and in creased. The people of Butler can be thankful for for a prosperity unparalleled in her history, and tor oar prospects of getting out of the mud. Tbm ia always something to he thank- Ail for. If things have gone against yon, be thankfal they are not worse. There is a silver lining to every cloud; so stop com plaining for oM day and unite in giving thsAka.

Governor's Appointments. The Governor of this State has some good offioee at his disposal, as follows: Attorney-Gtoeral, salary $3,600, and fees worth several times as mnch. Secretary of the Commonwealth, salary $4,000, and fees worth several times as mnch. Both of the above offices pay better than Governor, who receives a salary of SIO,OOO.

The Feast of Thanks. Tears pass like winds that cease to blow, Like stars that fall from heaven's dome; By winds oCpean, by winter snow Vnquenched, still gleam the lights of home. Among the living or the dead, O, hearts we love where'er ye be, For you the sacred board is spread, Tho feast of Love and Memory! Clear eyes fulfilled of holier light, Clear souls at peace past death's dim banks, Through all that gloom of utter night, Come, keep with us the day of thanks! The waves of storm-scourged years that roar May fleck the golden head with foam; By the old hearths we sit no more; Yet God be thanked for love and home! Though hopes aad joys, like April snow, May melt, tkongk good or grief befall; For all man's life, for bliss or woe, Be thank* said at this festival! Old homes, old hopes, old friends, old days Wherefrnm (all many a season parts— For all, for all, to God bo praise, And most for lore and kindly hearts! NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES. Several persons hare lately been kiileil at the railroad crossings in New Brighton and Beaver Falls, and a few days ago a daughter of Jos. H. Alexander of this county who was visiting relatives in Beaver Falls had a narrow escape. The town of Parker has had several sensations lately. On Saturday evening the IS the inst. John Duff was assaulted, beaten and gagged on the street-*, and then taken to his honse, and robbed; and on the following Tuesday evening some twenty persons who took supper at the Parker Honse were poisoned by eating corn-cake, made of meal into which some Hough on-Rats had accidently fallen. An attempt was made to "hold up ' a barber named Poole, near Emlenton a few nights ago, but the barber "let fly with right" when he saw a chance to do so an<l downed the would be robber. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Campbell, who live near the line of South Beaver township, are remarkable examples of longevity and vigor. He is 90 years of age and she is 82. They have been married 65 years. The old lady conducts her own correspondence and writes a good, clear hand. The old man enjoys reading the T" about the piece as he plejgjt^*^ A thirteen ygp«K<Tdson of George W alsh. of Jefferson Co. attempted by taking laudanum. Prompt measures restored him to consciousness. The youth gave as a reason for his ra*h act. that life was a burden to him on account of his troubles, and it is said that he had threatened to shoot himself before. In this connection the Brockwayville Record wisely remarks: "Troubles are for grown people. "When a boy feels that he is tired of life instead of bubbling over with spirits and cussedness, there is something out of whack in that boy's surroundings that needs looking after, and it needs look ing after mighty bad." Just prior to the battle of Gettysburg, a soldier who thought he would fall in that engagement made a request of John Am brose, an old soldier now residing in "West moreland county,which has just been com plied with. Mr. Ambrose was himself in jured in the battle and afterwards drifted away, so that he was unable at the time to carry out the wishes of his comrade. Be fore the fight the soldier went to Ambrose, and giving him a package of papers,among which were sls in gold, said he did not ex pect to survive the fight, and asked Am brose to secrete the package between the rocks, and after the war was over to secure it and return it to his wife. Ambrose, who lost a leg in this battle, did so, and when he went to Gettysburg a short time ago found the package where he leit it. The gold was intact and was returned to the widow of his friend, but the papers hail long since rotted. The extent ol the grape crop of Chau tauqua county, N. Y., is surprising. To get an idea of the immensity, take these facts: There were shipped from Fredonia, Brocton and other stations in the county 1,200 car-loads of grapes, equal to 3,360,- 000 ninepound baskets or 30,240,000 pounds, or 15,120 tons, making 40 trains of cars, 30 cars to each train. If the baskets were laid in a straight line, end to end, they would reach twice the distance from Buf falo to Chicago of 864 miles. This does not include the large amount of grapes sold from wagons throughjthe southern portion of the county, or the immense crops grown in other counties in the lake shore region. A good one is told of a certain Beaver countian who recently mustered up enough courage to propose to his best girl. She hesitated, but finally accepted him, just as her twin sister entored the parlor with a lighted lamp. The happy fellow then dis covered that he had proposed to the wrong girl. The one he aJored was named Mary, the other Martha, and the only way Mary con Id be told from Martha was by a small mole nnder Mary's right ear. His spologies were profuse, but the sisters kept him in hot water for an hour; then Martha released him from the engagement and the room. It was too good a joke for Martha to keep, and she whispered it to one or two of our hero's friends next day. That's how it got out A stock company with SIOO,OOO has been formed for the purpose of erecting a new refinery on the "White farm near Taylors town, Washington Co. The location has been well chosen, owing to the fact that the great production of crude oil in the immediate locality, and the excellent ship ping facilities offered by the B. iO. It is proposed to lay a pipe line across the country to Cbartiers. Some coon hunters built a fire to get warm by, and burned a million feet of hemlock lumber, property of Thomas Ford, of Elk county, entailing a loss of $4,000. A West Chester colored man became so much interested in a political discussion that ho walked away without his crutches, that had been bis constant companions for years.

We know of shores of deathless flowers, Grand blossoms rich and rare Breathing fragrance in the air, But in that land we cannot see. There a sonl is made so free That it feels no pain or loss, It has the crown but not the cross. Friends who look through mists of tears, Friends who stand on eartlr's dark sphere You cannot see the shining way, You cannot see her opening day, And yet, amid earth's cress anil woe Some sweet message you may know, How her soul has found the light, How she passed the dismal night Ere she soared to yon bright shore Where she ne'er will suffer more. She has heard her mother's voice That which makes the soul rejoice, She has heard a father's tone, And she is not there alone. She has an angel sister there Beautiful and bright and fair, And an angel baby boy Once a mother's prido and joy; She has heard the voice which here She has mourned for many a year, been the faces which she lost O'er the river she has crossed; She has found the better land Where the purple violets grow. She has seen where angels stand, Passed from toil and earthly woe. So, dear friends, there in the light ■ We'll say good morn but not good-night, O, send us all from shores above The benediction of thy love. Magoie. Executor's Notice. K FC.STATE OF Jons W.
