DISTRESSING SHIpwREcK AND EXTREME
SUFFERING AT SEA.-lntelligence was re-
ceiyed i'll toWn to-day, says the Boston
JonrRdl, OF the loss OF an eastern vessel
under circumstances of great peril and suf-
tcring. The unfortunate vessel YVES the
brig Celia NJ. Carver, Captain Treat, on
the voyage from Georgetown, S. c., for
Searsport, Me.
After leaving port she encountered tre-
mendous weather, through the effects of
which she became disabled and wholly un-
manageable. The crew were driven to an
eXpo.ed part of the wreck for safety, to
which they clurg for life during nine Wea.
ry days aud nights, without mOrsel of
food Of amy kind, or water, subject to the
fall force OF the winds and waves
During this time one of the men was
badly crushed against the timbers, from
the effects Of Which he died. and all the
others We're more or less fr0st-bitten, the
weather bing extremely cold. Captain
Treat wac so badly frozen that it is expect
edshe Will lose both hands. The sutferines
Of all were Of the most intense character.
After being exposed so long to the ele-
ments and suffering under the pangs Of
starvation, they were reduced to the last
! extremity, and it is matter of surprise
that any Wore left TO tell the tale. They
were finally rescued. however, by passing
vessel and taken into Gloucester, Mas.
where their wants were supplied under the
friendly ca e Of the people Of that town.
The Celia VI. Carver was a good vessel,
Of l97 tons. built at Bangor in 1850, and
was owned in Searsport.

well enough Off. So well, indeed that no
pressure is upon its leading citizens to en-
gage in enterprises of great pith aud mo-
ment.' AS it is. all are doing something,
but do it in a leisurely and comfortable
way. Should, however, the spirit of pro-
grcss. or the love of gain, quicken them to
livelier action, they have abundant resour-
ces within hail of their very doors. The
clam banks are eye- ready to discount
freely; that olcaginous fish called pogy,
swims abundantly in their near waters
The poorest citizen can, in few weeks,
squeeze few hundred dollars out of these
unctuous fishes. But my sheet is full, and
have to defer further remarks till another

The Children's Prayer.

"Of such is the Kingdom Of Heautn."
Three white clad forms beside the bed
it'll little hands upheld,
When ell their toys are laid away,
And the noise of day is quolled;
And mothers hear from each repeat,
With voices earnest, low and sweet,
The simple prayer
She teaches there:
"Geutle Jesus, meek and mild,
Looh upon little child"
Fond kisses and good-nights" from all,
And rosy checks are laid
On snowy pillows, then, calm ,leep
Till drcany~night shall fade.
Good angels bend above each face
That silent lies in smiling grace
Though toll and care
Our lives must share;
"Gentle Jesus, meek and mild,
Look upon little child"
o, loved and snless little ones,
When years have led you on,
And she who fingers Ger you now
To her reward has gone;
When the toys of life are laid away,
And evening comes, still may you pray,
With faithful hearts,
As life departs:
"Gentle Jesus meek and mild,
Look upon little child"

FOR NATIONAL THANKS
GIVING.


By the President Of the United State...
A PROCLAMATION.
Almighty God our Heavenly Father
has been pleased to vouchsafe to us as
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 re,opened, foreign Intervention.
has ceased to excite alarm or apprehension,
intrusive pestilence has been benignlys
mitigated, domestic tranquility has inns
proved. sentiments of copciliation haver
largely prevailed, and the affections Of,
loyalty and patriotism have been widely:
renewed. Our fields have yielded quite
abundantly, our mining industry has BEEN
richly rewarded, and we have been allowed
to extend our rairond system into the in
terror recesses of the country, while our
commerce has resumed its customary ac.
tivity in foreign seas. These great Ma.
tional blessings demand a National ac- ,
acknowledgement.
Now, therefore, ], Andrew Johnson,
President of the United States, do hereby
recommend that Thursday, the Goth day
of November next, be set apart to be OBJ
served everywhere in the several States
and Territories Of the United States by
the people thereof as day of thanksgiv-.
ing aud praise to Almighty God, with
due remembrance that in his temple doth
every man speak of his praise recom-
mend, also, that on the same solemn ,occa-.
si,n we do huwbly and devotsdly implore
him to grant to our national councils audi
to our whole people that diRine wisdom
which alone can lead any nation into the
wayo of all good. In Offering, those baA
tional thanksgivings, praises and suppli-
cations we have the divine assurance
"that the Lord remaipeth King forever !:
those that are meek shall he learn his,
way; the Lord shall give strength to bis
people, and the Lord shall give to his peo-
pie the blessing Of peace"
In witness whereof. have bereunto set
my hand and csused the seal Of the Uni
ted States to be affixed.
Done at the city off Washington, this
9Th day Of October. in the year of our
Lord 1865, aud Of the independence
Of the United States the ninety first.
(Sigued,) ANDREW JOHNSON,
BY the President
WILLIAM H. SEWARD, Secretary Of
State
