THANIiSGIVING DAY,
A Proclamation.
Fellow Citizens.—The Abmghty and
merciful God has continued His guardian
ship over our Commonwealth during the
year that is past. Except in a single com
munity, which claims our sympathies, "the
pestilence that walketh in darkness, and
the destrution that wasteth at noonday,"
have not had His leave to smite. Health
has generally prevailed. The tumult of
internal strife has not been heard. Unex
ampled prosperity has attended the peace
ful pursuits of our citizens. "Seed-time
and harvest have returned." Our garners
have been filled with the finest of wheat.—
Our cup of blessings has overflowed. The
educational institutions of our Common
wealth are growing in the affections of the
people, developing the youthful mind, and
elevating our National character. Gene
ral intelligence and morality aro on the ad
vance. Our holy religion, through its own
institutions, continues to exert its sacred
influence ou the public mind—to administer
its consolations to the contrite and the
pure, and inspire them with the hopes of
immortality.
As a nation, we are at peace with all the
world, and eminently prosperous. The
free institutions of our government have
been strengthened by the trials of the past,
and a brighter promise dawns upon the fu
ture. To God, most great and good, we
owe all our blessings. To Him our thanks
are due.
Under this solemn conviction, and in
conformity with the wishes of many good
citizens, I, William Bigler, Govenor of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, do hereby
appoint Thursday the twenty-fifth day of
November next, as a day of general Thanks
giving and Prayer throughout the State,
and earnestly beseech the citizens of the
Commonwealth, of all classes, that setting
aside all worldly business on that day, they
unite in offering thanks to Almighty God
for His blessings, and invoke the continu
ance of His goodness.
Given under my hand and the Great Seal
of the State, at Harrisburg, this twenty
fifth day of October, in •the year of our
Lord ono thousand eight hundred and
fifty-two, and of the Cenunonwealth the
seventy-seventh.
By the Govenor : E. S. Goottictr.
Deputy Secretary of the Commonwealth.
Value of Flia
The following from Henry E. French,
Esq., of Exeter, N. H., shows the income
which may be obtained from a fruit orchard:
"To show by facts and not by theories
merely; the advantage of raising fruit, I will
state what has been the value of the crop
of a single orchard. Mr. Joseph Robinson,
of Chester N. H., has an orchard of less
thnn two acres, which produced a crop in
1847, for which ho was offered $6OO on
the trees; in 1849 a crop which sold for
$680; and last year ho was offered $415
for the fruit,on the trees, and declined the
offer. His orchard has been long in full
bearing, and bids fair to last for at least a
generation to come. His fruit has been
sold in the neighboring markets for from
one to three dollars per barrel. Front his
own account I am satisfied that the aver
age net income of that oachard for the pe
riod of ten years past has been more than
three hundred dollars per year—the inter
est of five thousand dollars! A gentleman
in Hampton, in this State, sold the fruit of
four acres of land, last season, for $BOO,
and before he received $l4OO for the fruit
of the same orchard."—Bridgeton Citron.
Take Sheep from pasture.
Tho time for taking sheep from the pas
ture, must depend on the state of the wea
ther and food. Severe frosts destroy much
of the nutriment in the grasses, and they
soon after cease to afford adequate nourish
ment. Long exposed to cold storms, with
such food to sustain them, will rapidly re
duce their condition. The only safe rule
is to transfer them to their winter quaaters
the first day they cease ro thrive abroad.
T' An ounce of fact is worth a pound of the
ory twit the swarm of conclusive facts that clus
ter round that incomparable preparation, Hoot
land's German Bitters, prepared by Dr. C. M.
Jackson, Philadelphia, establishing Its rabic as a
tonic and restorative, are such as would provost
incredulity itself from questioning its efficacy.—
In all cases of disease of stomach, whether acute
Or chronic, it may be recommended for its sooth
ing, cordial, and renovating influence. Dyspep
sia, heart-hum, loss of appetite, nausea, nervous
tremors, relaxation, debility, &e, are relieved, by
the Bitters in a very short space of time; Mid a
persevo since its their ton norer fails to work a
thorough cure. Sept. 30.

Lives of Winfield Scott and ./Indrew
Jackson, by J. T. Headley. 1 vol.
12m0., with Portraits. Uniform with
Napoleon and his .Marshals."—
__ _ _ •
$1,25:
Scott and Jackson are here placed together as
the two military men who have made the deepest
impressions on their country since the tithe of
Washington. They both achieved a brilliant re
putation in the war of 1812, and by the battles of
Chippewa, Niagara, New Orleans, etc., gave
their country a reputation at hotne and abroad,
and though differing widely itt saute characteris
tics, they were very similar itt others. The auth
or has not only sketched the biography of each,
hot has given a Mithfid and graphic description of
the brilliant battles in which they were engaged.
The biography of Winfield Scott, which consti
totes the greater part of the volume, is full and
authentic, the materials fur it having been derived
from public documents and from many officers
who had served under Scott. It presents to the
reader also a pahorainie view of the brilliant cam
paign of Mexico, embracing the storming and ea
pitutation of Vora Cruz, the battles of Cerro Gor
do, Churobusco, Contreras, Molino del Itey, Cha
pultepee, storming of Mexico, Triumphal Entry,
with description Of the scenery, pefsonal inci
dents, etc. The author has fully sustained the
reputation acquired by "Napoleon and his Mar
shals," and other works, of which over 200,000
volumes have been sold.
