SECRETARY CHASE AND THE WAR
Dispatch from Washington says:
Secretary Chase told a number Of
gentlemen who called upon him this
morning, that his only appreheusions
touching the finances were born Of his
fears that the war might not be prose-
cuted with vigor, and that on this point
he had much moro hope of late. Had
the war been waged according to his
wishes, two objects very dear to the
Western people would have been accom-
plished before now"

Thanksgiving Proclamation.


STATE OF Quo, EXEC. DEPARTMENT, !
COLUMBUS, Oct. 25, 1862, I q
The time-houored custom adopted by
the Fathers OF our State, of setting
apart one day in each year for praise,
Thanksgiving and prayer to Almighty
God, for bis goodness and mercy to Us
as people, should be preserved. Espe
cially at a time like the present, should
all good citizens unite, in laying aside
the ordinary business of life, at lea,t
for day, and devote themselves to the
teachings of their Maker.
The effort made by the legally con.
stituted authorities of the land to put
down the wicked rebellion against the
Federal Government, the best ever en-
Ijoyed by any people, in which the gall
liant sons of Ohio have borne so con
spicuous and proud a part, has filed
every neighborhood with mourning
Our brave soldiers are yet exposed to
the dangers ofthe field of battle and the
hardships of emp lif and our system
of government, in form after Gods own
laws, and so gentle that its reins were
scarcely felt by the governed, is yet in
peril. r... ras..--a
Our Heavenly Father can console the
distressed, and heal the sorrows of the
mothers and the widows heart; He can
protect from danger our patriotic sol
diers now 10 the field; He can paralyze
the arm of the enemy of our good Gov
ernment
Now, therefore, in obedience to the
General Assembly of the State of Ohio,
and to the end that simultaneous petit
tion to Him may ascend to Heaven
from all parts of our State, l do hereby
fix upon, and set apart, Thursday, tho
9th of November next, as a day of
praise, thanksgiving and prayer, to A.
mighty God! And do recommend
that, abstaining from all business pur-
r suits, the good and pure minded people
of our State meet at their usual places
of worship, and with one voice, humbly
ask the God of all nations to smile upou
p the distressed of our land; that HI give
$ wisdom and purity to those in authori-
ty; that he PROSTATE the enemies of our
, Governments; and that in all things, He
give such wisdom to all the people Of
the Garth as will enable them to conform
t to His laws, to the end that peace and
goodwill shall prevail throughout the
r world.
+ In witness whereof l have hereunto
g set my hand, and affixed the Great Seal
of the State of Ohio, the day and year
above written.

"A portion Of the boats entered the Savannah
river by "a small creek, but found the river OBJ.
