THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION
by THE
Governor of the State of Iowa

Another year has gone, and we are
brought to that period, when, following
the example of our Puritan Fathers, we
are accustomed to offer our public Thanks
giving to the Author of all good for his
mercilul providence towards us. Wonder
full changes have occurred during the past
year, and adversities seem TO have over
taken us as a country and people; yet
we have manifold hls6lpgs for which to
be thankful For I Rieous harves,s
Of the field, for the generA good health of
the past year, for the peaceful relations
we occupy with nations abroad, for the
aroused patriotic spirit of the People
which promises i'm due time to restore
peace at home and triumphantly place our
civil and religious institutions Of Frecdom
on hrmer foundation than ever before
for these and many other blessings we have
abundant cause for Christian gratitude.
With Civil War raging in our midst, the
banner Of Rebellion waving along all the
Southern border, hostile armies marching
10 the conflict, and walls of mourning al
ready swelling from thousands of stricken
hearts and seholds-that we can still
recognize manifold causes oi gratitude and
acknowledge His kindly providence, and
confidently place our trust In lis hand r.
control this storm for the Nation good
may eniitle us to the renewed favor Of Him
who doeth all things well
TO this end, |. Samuel j kirkwood
Governor Of the State Of iowa, do hereby
appoint Thursday, the 2s,h dsy of No
venber next, as day of Thanksgiving
and | earnestly recommend the people o
the State tn abstain on that day from their
| usual avocations, and assemble at their
respective places ofworship to offer Thanks
/ Prayer and Praise 10 Him in whose mere,
now more than ever Is our great trust.

NIGHT SIGNALs,-F. IL. Palmer, Esq, of
the American Telegraph, has tried new sys-
TEN Of experimental telegraphing, with bril-
liant results. 1t consists in darting intelligence
by means of the calcium light, through dark
spaces, without wires, with wonderful rapid.
ty, liStincsness, and accuracy. One light was
stationed at Hull, the other at Boston. BY
the interposition and variation of thin piece
of metal in the lens of the apparatus, the
changeable and wavering light, piercing the
darkness like vivid lightning, told its story to
the operators at either end, as instantaneous
aud ineligible as the clicking Of the tel
egraph tells its story to the ear. The
operator in Hull flashed upon the eye
OF the operator in the State Street Block
at Boston that nearly all the voters in town
were watching his movements. 1t has been
thought that this fine discovery would prove
OF great Importance to armies marching into
an enemy's country, affording sure, easy, and
rapid comm unication between advancing col
umns. The subject is to be brought to the
notice of the federal authorities.

responsible. We know that the Rev. Patrick
Bronte was born on the Saints day, which
gave him his name, in the year 1777 that lie
begat those children of his lived to turn
them in, ripen the sources of their own life,
and make them what they were, then died in
Nichols arms. A brief but unutterably fas.
cinating history, with an end which saddens
us, yet makes US still more glad. 1t is impos-
sibe to feel overbalancing regret at the death
of the last Bronte. We rejoice that there is
none living to bear that name which alwa,s
meant misery and spiritual unhealth, while it
portended genius and glory. 1t is as if we saw
a galaxy Of glorious stars, and knew that
while they slone they were burning in Il bitter
conscious pain. We might sorrow for our.
selves when they dummed and went out in
white ashes; but for their sakes we should
rejoice 1t is n beneticent law of nature that
no morbid growth, however splendid, propa.
gates itself through generations of unhealth
and agony. Aud we would have no more of
the Brontes lett than dwells in their immortal
books

Death of Charlotte Bronte's Father.


Charlotte Bronte's father is dead. On the
9TH of June he fell asleep in the wierd old par.
sonage Of Haworth, closing his eyes on the
hearthstone where the three lovely women
who made his name glorious sat but little
while ago, dreaming nscrutably over the
wonderful world within them, and whence
they passed one by one, their fragile shapes
seeming rather to fade slowly than die quick
ly, like the common lot. Eighty-four years
old, and, but for that faithful son-in-law Mich
oils who looks to us in reading of him, more
like prolraction of Charotte's life than
separate existence-but for him and the SER
wants, all alone We may believe or ,sbe-
lieve the stories of his iron sternness, he may
have fired himself off in pistol cartridges from
the back door step, he may have torn tatfeta
gowns, he may have been gloomy companion
for three motheress women, and gifted,
reckless, unbalanced svn-we forget all that
now-he outliyed one OF the rarest families
that were ever born to man. All that we
know. Of him is known because he was the
father of Currer, Acton and Ellis Bell, OF Pat.
rick the younger, dead in his despairing youth,
after life Of wild, brilliant misery for
which no philosopher in the tangled organism
