By tho President of the United States of America —A proclamation : It lias long been the pious cus torn of our people, with the closing of the year, to look back upon the blessings brought to them in the changing course of the seasons, and to return solemn thanks to the All Giving Source from whom they (low. And 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 lias 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. I'eacu without and pros perity within have been vouchsafed to us. No pestilence has visited our shores. The abundant privileges of freedom, which our fathers lett us in their wisdom, are still our increasing lieiltage. And if, in parts of our vast domain, some alliiction has visited our brethren in their forest homes, yet even this calamity lias been tempered and in a man ner sanctified by the generous compassion for the suffers which lias 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 rccommed that all the peo ple observe Thursday, the 24th day of November, inst., as a day of national thanksgiving and prayer, by 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 btates to he affixed Done lit the city of Washington, this fourth day of November, in the year of our Lord 1881, and of the independence of the United States, 100. [Signed] CHESTER A. ARTHUR. By the President. JAMES G. BLAINE, Secretary of State. Thanksgiving. Governor Iloyt issued his Thanksgiv ing proclamation Friday afternoon. It is as follows : In the name, and h\j the authority of the Com monwealth of Pennsylvania, Henry M. Iloyt, (Gov ernor of mid Commonwealth: A PROCLAMATION ."—During a season of drought and partial failure of the harvests, which in a less fi diful land would have brought famine and dis i • -i, and in a time of public trial and tribulation, vvl >ih under less happy institutions might have led to dissension and strife, the people of the United States and particularly of Pennsylvania, have been preserved in health, in estate and in peace. Now, therefore, I, Henry M. Iloyt, Governor ol Pennsylvania, do ordain and set apart Thursday, November 24th. A. I>. 1881, (being tl.e day appoint od by the President of the United States), for the observance of those religious services, recognizing the beneficence and care of the Father of us all, and those household customs, strengthening the bonds of families and common brotherhood, in which the ime honored traditions of the Commonwealth have been embodied in thanksgiving and prayer of a grateful pople. Given under my hand and the great seal of the State at Ilarrisburg, this tenth day of [L. S.] November, in the year of our Lord 1881 and of the Commonwealth the lOQth. (Signed) HENRY M. IIOYT, Governor. M. S. Quay, Secretary of the Commonwealth. A Journalist's Pen Picture of Ireland. 1). 11. Locke, (Nasby) tells in the Tole do Blade how he was converted by Red path oil the Irish question. Itedpath on ly said, "Come with me." lie declined to argue; he merely showed Mr. Locke a scries of pictures of rags and starvation, of destitution indescribable, of misery beyond the power of tongue or pen to de pict. lie counted, "in a five miles' drive" five hundred women without shoes or stockings, walking in the mud. In Fer moy, "a tolerable prosperous village" for Ireland, the women not only had neither shoes nor stockings, but they had scarce- ly anything to wear. Locke saw evicted tenants—hungry, barefooted, barelegged, and bareheaded women, and pretty at that —trudging along the cold, wet road in a drenching rain storm. And next he saw a Hying squadron of 100 soldiers—fine looking fellows, well fed, well mounted, and well armed with loaded carbines. Itedpath invited "Nasby" into a typical cabin, where in its single room, 10 feet by 12, with a hole in the wall for a win dow, the wet earth for a floor, a srnooky fireplace in one corner, he introduced him to its seven occupants. About the fire three or four children, dressed in scanty cotton slips, were hudled. In another corner there was a blood of chickens and a pig repeatedly poked his snout in at the loose hanging door. The little holding attached to the cabin had been improved by three generations of family tenants from three shillings to forty shillings per acre a year. In America Mr. Locke thought the land for which the tenant pays $lO per acre might sell for $1 per acre! In another cabiu Mr. Locke saw a bed con sisting of four posts driven into the ground, some stringers covered with rough boards, and on the boards dried leaves and heather covered with some potato sacks. This is the manner of living of the Irish people against whom Mr. Gladstone is employing the "resour ces of civilization." When Mr. Locke entered the Emerald Isle lie was preju diced against the Irish. He says he tried to "convince Mr. Parnell that he was a demagogue; that the Irish had no reason for agitation ; that Ireland could only be properly ruled by the English; and that he ought to be thankful to the kind Prov idence that had given them a superior race to protect and care for them." After a day with Redpath, Lock was "wet,wea ry aud mad." The day's sights, he says, "were too horrible for talk." Mr. Locke will not dispute any more with Mr. Par nell.—Chicago Times. Busmess Cards.
