giving and Praise, in this State:
PENNSYLVANIA, SIS:
In The name and by The authority IF the Com
monsoeahh Of Pennsylvania, JAMES POLLOCK,
Governor Of the said Commonwealth
A PROCLAMATION.
FsllGto- Citizens TO tender TO Almighty
God, who controls the destinies of nations
and men, the homage of devout gratitude
and praise for his goodness and mercy, is
the appropriate and solemn duty of a free
and highly favored people. AS the giyer Of
every good and perfect gift we should ever
recognize His hand in our mercies, and ac-
knowledge our dependence upon His Prov
idence; and although adversely may throw
its dark shadows across our pathway, yet
wsshauld be assured of this, "that the Judge
of oil Earth will do right"
During the past year the bounties of a
kind Providence have not been withheld
from our Commonwealth. Our free institu-
tions have been preserved, and our rights
and privileges, civil and religious, enjoyed
and maintained. The arts and sciences,
and the great interests Of education, morali-
~ and religion, have claimed attention and
received the encouragement of an intelli-
gent and liberal people. Honorable industry
in its varied departments has been reward.
cd; and although recent and severe finan.
cial revulsion has filled with gloom, sorrow
and distress, the hearts and homes of many
cfour citizens, yet no fear of famine, no
dread ofimpending public or social calami-
", n1ingles with our emotions of gratitude
for past blessings, or weakens our trust for
the future, in the Providences of Him who
wounds but te heal, and "whose mercy en-
durelh forevsr.n A plenteous harvest has
crowned the labor OF the husbandman--
peace, with it's gentle and refining infuen-
sces, and unwonted health with its benefits
and mercies, have been vouehsaied to us.
In acknowledgement of these manifold
blessings, we should offer unto God thanks.
giving and pay our vows unto the most thigh;
apd,call upon Him nin the day of trouble;
He will deliver lhee and thou shalt glotify
Him.
Under the solemn convection of the propri.
ETY. Of this duty, and in conformity with es-
tablished custom and the wishes of many
good citizens, {, James Pollock, Governor of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, do
hereby recommend Thursday, the twenty
