THE DAY OF NATIONAL THANKSGIVING IN THE
UNITED STATES.—President Johnson has appointed the
29th of November as a day of national thanksgiving. In
his proclamation he says :—" Almighty God, our Heavenly
Father, has been pleased to vouchsafe to us as a people
another year of that national life which is an indispensable
condition of peace, security, and progress. That year,
moreover, has been crowned with many peculiar blessings.
The civil war that has so recently been among us has not
been anywhere reopened. Foreign intervention has ceased
to excite alarm or apprehension. Intrusive pestilence has
been benignly mitigated. Domestic tranquillity has im-
proved ; sentiments of conciliation have largely prevailed,
and affections of loyalty and patriotism have been widely
renewed. Our fields have yielded quite abundantly ; our
mining industry has been richly rewarded ; and we have
been allowed to extend our railroad system far into the
interior recesses of the country, while our commerce has
resumed its customary activity in foreign seas. Thesei
great national blessings demand a national ackno.livelnett go-f
ment. Now, therefore, I. Andrew Johnson,
