THAEKsoIvMo.-The custom Of appoint
ing one day in the year as day of thanks
giving, originated in New England in those
early times when Providence was more
clearly recognized than it is in these degen-
crate days, and when mems eonseisnces i'm
PEELED them to give thanks to that divine
source to which they traced the blessings they
received. Common dangers and common
suffering, which made strong the ties bind
ing communities together, dOubly strength
ened the bonds which united families, hence
the PureSt and tsndsrest symPathies and the
most unalloyed hsppiness clustered around
the family board on Thanksgiving Day, and
about the family hearth on Thanksgiving
Evening. Then it was that brothers and
sisters whom the various pursuits and vicis-
situdes Of life separated by leagues, met to-
gether beneath the parental roof tree and ex-
changed those tender greetings and fond
"reminiscences which are so much priced.
It is great misfortune that the name of
the one who first suggested the traditional
roast turkey as the erOwning feature Of the
thanksgiving dinner, is not preserved to pos
terity. His memory is blessed, but his name
should have been engraven on enduring tab
lets, that prattIing children might have been
taught to lisp It, and the grateful emotions
which swell the hearts Of the aged on thanks
giving day, rising to their lips, might syllable
his name. The names of thousands Of men,
whose inventions have not resulted in frae-
tion Of the happiness which has sprung from
the thanksgiving turkey, have been pressrv-
ed, while the name of him who first placed
that interesting bird at the head ofthe board
on the occasion of thanksgiving dinner, is
lost to the world. Such is often times the fate
of genius.
Thanksgiving day viii soon arrive, and we
trust that it will be observed, although GER
tain doubling ones, shaking their heads over
the aspect Of national affairs, profess to see
nothing to be thankful for. If nothing else,
VIC can at least be grateful that matters are
no worse, thank God, and take courage
But We have many things to be thankful for.
We can be thankful for abundant harvests,
although it takes powerful sight of shin
pIasters to do marketing. We can be thank
ful that vigorous war policy is likely to
take the place Of dilly-daIlying, and that X.
Smith didn't capture all our squirril guns at
Cincinnati; that foreign Intervention has not
yet added to our national embRrrassments,
and that our Common Council has partially
mitigated the horrors of postage stamps by
an issue Of '' city orders :" that Buell. has
been allowed vacation, and that the Army
Of the Potomac is safe in the entrenchments
at Washington; that Buchanan wasn't elect
ed for more than four years, and that our
q wayward sisters 'aiRt any more numerous
than they are. As MyrOn cOzzens would
say, " That's what's the matter with the
turkey"

BosToE, Nov. q.
The drop of the Charlestown bridge
was open this morning when the way pas
senger train from Maiden went through
The train consisted of engine, tender, smOk-
ing car and three passenger cars. The
weather was very dark and foggy and the
train was gowing quite slowly. The en-
CINE and tender plunged into the river
The smoking car, in which were a number
of passengers, was thrown forward with
all the passengers in heap. The remain
ing cars were uncoupled in time to avoid
taking the plunge. Many of the passen-
gers escaped by jumping out of the
windows and swimming, while to others
planks were thrown. Four dead bodies
had been recovered. 1t is thought that
these included all the killed. Several pas
sengers were more or less injured, but for
tunately none very severely. 1t appears
that there was not more than fifteen or
twenty persons in the smoking car.

FROM VIRGINIA.

FORTRESS MONROE, Nov. 20.
On the 14th our pickets were driven in
at Suffolk, whereupon General Peck sent
out force and drove all the rebels over
the Blaekwater river. Bridges are now
being constructed over all the creeks be-
tween Suffolk and the Blackwater, and also
across that river by our forces. Four
hundred Union prisoners are to be at City
Point on Friday, 21st inst. While the truce
boat Matamora remained there, her officers
and crew we're not allowed to step on shore.
Neither was any communication, except
official, afforded them. The rebel officers
were not communicative or even social as
has generally been the case heretofore
The following are extracts from the
Richmond Enquirer of the 18th:
"0ne hundred and ten abolitionists, cap
tured few days ago at Smokers Ferry,
arrived last evening, and were lodged in
the Libby prison"
The leading editorial speaks of the utter
hopelessness of recognition by foreign
powers so long as the war lasts, and says
"This is not the doctrine which has exist
ed among nations heretofore. France
recognized the Colonies long before the
war ended. But, thank Heaven, we are
not dependent en- the favor of outsiders.
While we should like our justly earned
rights, we owe our independence to Him
who rules the nations. We will but arouse
the more and fight the harder.

General GustaVious W. Smith is offcia-

sition. On Monday morning as the enemy
was marching on Fredericksburg, orders
were given to destroy all the cotton and
tobacco in the town. The order was prompt
ly executed and several pyramids of cot
ton bales were soon destroyed and about
1000 boxes of tobacco, belonging to specu-
lators, were tumblsd into the Rappahan-
mock.
In the afternoon the enemy appeared on
the opposite side Of the river in greater
force, and with guns superior to ours. The
enemy is already in Falmouth. Our loss
in the engagement was l killed, wound

than did Mr. Roberts last night, we believe
that We should simply echo the sentiment Of
the audience. In some of the scenes, the

dragged upon his hands. He has at times a

heart history of such conflict, purchased By
the life of twenty thousand men, must Be
found in the hospitals. War has its glO-
ries-but it has ten thousand demons in
these human tOrtures, that make the eye
balls aehe-the heart blesd-the lips palsy,
and the brain reel. The Sights at first pos
