THE ART OF PRINTING. ID Israeli bo-
lieves, and brings up a mass of evi.
dence TO sustain him, that the art of
printing was known to the Romans,
but that they rejected 1t rs unsuited to
their civilization, and that the Emper-
ors were bitterly opposed to it, as in 1t
they recognized powerful enemy to
their tyranny. They did, however.
make use of it on small scale. The
Emperor Justnlan had STAMP on
which were engraved or carved the let
tcrs of his name, and had mado con.
slant use of this for signing documents
Theodoric did the same. The movea-
BILE letters with which the Roman
potters stamped their wares, were SIM
liar to those used by the book binders
of the present day for lettering, etc.
The Romans were also perfectly famil-
lar with printing ink, and their refus-
al to make use of the printing press
must be attributed either to the oppo-
sition of the Emperor or the popular
belief that it was not suited to such
high civilization.

National Thanksgiving,
BY the President ofthe United States;
pEprJAMATION

Almighty God, our Heavenly Father,
has been pleased to vouchsa.e - sas u
people another year of that national
life which is an indispensable condition
of peace, security, and progress. That
year, moreover, has been crowned with
many peculiar blessings. The civil
war that was so recently among us has
not been anywhere reopened. Foreign
Intervention has ceased to excite alarm
or apprehension. Intrusive pestilenco
has been benignly mitigated. Domcs-
tic tranquility has improved. Senti-
ments of Cancellation have largely pre-
vailed, and affections of loyalty and
patriotism have been widely renewed.
Our fields have yielded quite abundant
ly; our mining industry has been rich
y rewarded, and we have been allowed
to extend our railroad system far into
the interior reccsses of the country,
while our commerce has resumed its
customary activity in foreign seas
These great national blessings demand
n national acknowledgements. ..
Now, therefore, !, Andrew Johnson.
President of the United States, do here
by recommend that Thursday, tho
twenty-ninth day Of November next,
be set apart and be observed every
where Ia the several States and Terri
tories OF the United States, by the poo
pie thereof, as n day of thanksgiving
and praise to Almighty God, with due
remembrance that in His temple doth
every man speak of his honor. | re-
commend also that on the same solemn
occasion we do hunibly and devoutly
implorc III inn to grant to our national
councils and to our whole people that
divine wisdom which alone can lead
any nation into the ways of all good.
In Offering these national thanksgiv-
ings, praises, and supplications, we
have the divine assurance that tho
Lord rcmaincth King forever. Them
that are meek shall He guide in judg-
ment, and such rs are gentle shall He
learn His way. The Lord shall give
strength to His people, and the Lord
shall give to His people the blessings OF
peace.
II WITNESS WHEREOF, | have here
unto set my hand and caused the seal
of the United States to be Affixed
Done at the city of Washington, this
Sth day of October, in the year of our
Lord one thousand eight hundred and
sixty-six, and Of the independence OF
the United States the ninetieth.

Peat In IOWA.

Very recently anumber ofgentle-
ruen returned from n tour into the In
terror OF Northern Iowa, where they
have been examining into the peat
beds which have long been shrewdly
suspected by some to form the subsoii
OF o large portion Of the State. They
are gentlemen of experience, who
know what peat is when they see It
and what IL is worth when they find It..
We saw yesterday small block OF
compressed peat brought by one MEM
ber of this comittee of examination on
his return; it was from Harden county,
near Eldora, and is certainly hand
some specimen. He reports one body
of fifteen hundred acres, twelve feet
thick, where this specimen was obtain
ed.
1t Is not easy tn imagine the immense
revolution this discovery will make IN
reference to fuel. Her oil springs are
scarcely worth more to Pennsylvania
than our peat deposits are to Iowa.
The complaint that our State Jacks
fuei' dwindles into insignificance,-
We have fuel enough for the nation.
1t il as common as mud. II viii cost

In all the cares and joys of life,
There's nothing li!so a worthy wife,
Her real worth cannot be told,
In costly gems or glitterlng gold.
For gold and gems viii take their flight
And leave us in a wintry night,
Till friends, and fortune, all are zone:
But 10! the good wife still loves on.
In sickness, sin. and sorrows hour,
She seems to WELD q ten-f0id power,
With cheering smile and loving art,
To cheer and heal the broken heart.
Yes! when ;ife's scenes with us are DER
And Death is standing at our door,
She, with a trusting faith and love,
Points TO better home above!

An ANgRY FATHER STRUCK DEAD
The Shcrbrookc (Canada) Gagette
says that last week Lawrence Doyle,
who had been drinking, got very nn-
CRY with his son, and his excitement
was such that he burst some of the
blood vessels Of his heart and drop
ped dead in an instant. Only short
time before his death he said he did
not care for God man, or the devil, and,
told his wife that she might prepare
a coffin for her son or for himself be-
fore night. When under the influence
of Igor his passion was uncomfortable.
