Ii ever the nation had occasion for
Thanksgiving, it is at the present time.
From every quarter Of the south we have
news Of victory over the rebels The
past three weeks have witnessed the cul-
mination of enterprises which had been
for many months in progress Rosecraus
has in effect closed with success his cam
paign against Bragg. Meade has sen.
lees beaten and disheartened army again
to the southwark. Grant and Banks have
gloriously triumphed at V.cksburg and PIT
Hudson, opening BY western valor the
great river to western commerce; and
lastly, if Charleston is not already in our
hands, operations have been commenced
against it on firm basis, which must re.
suit, before many weeks, in our posses
sion of that important place Beside
these, tho miserable riot which corrupt
and cowardly politicians like Fernando
Wood had raised in New York, has been
put down by the strong arm of law. Con.
fdence in the future, as indicated by the
specie quotations, has been hardly better
since the war broke out, and oil things
look toward an early close of the war.
1t becomes loyal and grateful nation
to respond heartily to this call of the ex-
ecutive and to render hearty thanks to
Divine Providence for these great and
signal mercies. -[Chicago Post-Demo-

ties he had been divorced from her at the
last term of the District Court. When
Schute got to tho house, on asking for
the articles he wanted, two boys, sons OF
Mrs. Heller, attacked him with an axe
and knives and so terribly butchered him
that he was almost beyond recognition.
When found be was lying short dis.

places. and his whole body covered with
Wounds, evidently made with the knife.
The parties charged with the murder are
under arrest, and will be duly tried. The
excitement in Gutenberg is very high.
Some are for and some are against the de-
