The STATE Of Deiawdre.
In is the duty of II Christian people, at all
times, to return thanks to the Great Oliver Of
all good and perfect eilts, for the innnmerable
blessings which He is continually showeriDg
upon them; but more especially Is il right md
proper that II day shOuldbe set apart when we,
whonrc blessed above all other nations, should,
with humble pcnitcncc and grateful heartA,
bend the knee together, and with one voice
thank Him from whom all blessings flow for
the priceless liberties which we enjoy For the
early and the latter rains, which have blessed
us in basket and in store, while famine and pow
crty have been the lot of others For the sun
shine of peace, under which we bask in careless
contcntmcnt, while the demon OF war carries
terror and misery to those even beside us For
the health which strengthens our irail bodies,
while pestilence walketh abroad through less
favored countries, with misery, desolution and
death, as his fearful companions FOrthe genial
sun and frequent showers without which the
husbandman would have toilcd in vain For
the gentle winds which have filled the sails of
the mariner For the success which has re-
warded the energies Of the merchants For the
regular and constant employment afforded to
the mechanic and the laborcr; and for the good
and equal laws which protect all alike in the
enjoyment Of life, liberty, and property.
Therefore, |, WILLIAM BunTON, Governor of
the State Of Delaware in humble reverence, do
appoint THURSDAY, the twenty fourth day of
NOVEMBER next, as Il day of general thanks
giving and praise to Almighty God, and do re-
commend its appropriate observance By the
citizens of this State.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set
f.. s.. my hand and caused the Great Seal of the
State of Delaware to be affixed, at Dover, this
twenty sixth day of October, in the year of our
Lord one thousand eight hundred and fifty
nine and Of the Independence of said State the
cighty-fnnrth WILLIAM BURTON.

While on Niagara's rock-girt shore,
Some leisure hours | wiled away,
To hear the laundering waters roar,
And view the rainbow and the spray,
viewed the grand terrific sight,
As one of Natures widest freaks;
And could but say with sweet delight,
The work its architect bespeaks.
The waters from ten thousand springs
In one grand focus all unite;
And then on gravitations wings,
Descend to depths beneath our sight.
Dividing lands by despots ruled.
From those by generous freemen uod,
Where men have been by wisdom school'd
And taught to reverence natures God.
Says one, do you of freedom boast,
Because exempt from British rule;
Go, and review your pinion'd hosts,
VI slaves, then talk of wisdom school.
