Proclamation for Thanksgiving Day.
By the Preaident of the United States of America
—A proclamation : It has long been the pious cus
tom of our people, with the closing of the year, to
look back upon the blcs9ings brought to them in
the changing course of the seasons, and to return
solemn thanks to the All Giving Source from
whom they flow. Aad although at this period
when the falling leaf admonishes us that the time of
our sacred duty is at hand, our nation still lies in
the shadow of a great bereavement, and the mourn
ing which has filled our hearts, still finds its sor
rowful expression toward the God before whom
we but lately bowed in grief and supplication.
Yet the countless benefits which have showered
upon us during the past twelve months call for our
fervent gratitude, and make it fitting that we
should rejoice with thankfulness that the Lord in
His infinite mercy has most signally favored our
country and our people. Peace without and pros
perity within have been vouchsafed to us. No
pestilence has visited our shores. The abundant
privileges of freedom, which our fathers left us in
their wisdom, are still our increasing heritage.
And if, in parts of our vast domain, some affliction
has visited our brethren in their forest homes, yet
even this calamity has been tempered and in a man
ner sanctified by the generous compassion for the
suffers which has been called forth throughout our
land. For all these things it is meet that the voice
of the nation should go up to God in devout hom
age. Wherefore I, Chester A. Arthur, President
of the United States, do recommed that all the peo
ple observe Thursday, the 21th day of November,
inst., as a day of national thanksgiving and prayer,
i>y ceasing so far as may be, from their secular la
bors and meeting in their several places of worship,
there to join in ascribing honor and praise to Al
mighty God, whose goodness has been so manifold
in our history and in our lives, and offering earnest
prayers that His bounties may continue to us and
to our children.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand
and caused the seal of the United States to
be afllxcd.
Done at the city of Washington, this fourth day
of November, in the year of our Lord 1881, and of
the independence of the United States, 10ti.
| Signed] CHESTKII A. AnTuun.

The Wolfe Vote.
Charles S. Wolfe, Independent Repub
lican, got 1510 votes in the county. Si
las M. Baily, Republican, 4387. Orange
Noble 2909. Wolfe's vote was, therefore
more than 50 per cent of Noble's; about
33 percent of Bailey's. The highest vote
cast was that for Ilortou, Sherill, 5959.
Baily got 1612 less than llorton—about
the entire Wolfe vote. If this coinci
dence could be made to prove that
Wolfe's vote was a defection from the
Republican vote altogether, it would be
food for reflection. But It can not be
reduced to any such conclusion, for
Wolfe had a great number of Democratic
votes. Iu the three Wards of Towanda
the vote stood : Ist, Baily GO; Noble 44;
Wolfe 47. 2nd, Baily 128; Noble 72;
Wolfe 95. 3rd, Baily 81; Noble 51;
Wolfe 30. Total, Baily 275; Noble 167;
Wolfe 178. Iu 1880 on the total county
vote, Garfield had 8152; Hancock 4950
i: majority for Garfield of 3205. In this
Borough the vote stood, Ist ward, Gar
field 127, Hancock 125; 2nd ward, Gar
field 225, Hancock 126; 3rd ward, Gar
field 137, Hancock 70. Total, Garfield
489, Hancock 298. Total vote 787 as
against 020 votes cast this year. The
registration shows about 937 voters in
the Borough—297 more than the vote
cast this yeas. It is safe to say that
Wolfe's vote in the county was about 25
per cent Democratic, leaving about 1100
votes to be placed to the account of dis
affected Republicans.
A correspondent of the New York
Times gives the following test for detect
ing glucose in sugar: "I wish to call the
attention of your readers to another pro
cess which I published a year ago, and
which can be applied immediately by any
one, using only such means as are always
at command. This is a great advantage
to the average consumer or retail dealer,
who wish to know if there is any glucose
in his sugars, but who has neither me- '
thy lie alcohoi or a microscope at hand.
This process consists in putting about a
tablespoonful of cold wathe in a tumbler,
and adding successively several pinches!
of sugar. After each addition the liquid '
is shaken with a little stick or a spoon, |
or with any other convenient stirrer. Af- 1
ter puttiug iu four or five pinches of su
gar, the starch glucose, if present, will
be seen as chalky white specks. This
test takes three or four minutes.*'
