The OLD GUARD ron NovEMBER.-This
able and out-spOken democratic magazine
is promptly on our table with the begin
ming of the month. Its political articles,
as the hour Of tie great political battle
draws near, assume a tone Of boldness,
yigor and pluck, in the very teeth Of the
disastrous indications Of the October cleo
tons, worthy Of its title. This issue is
most excellent in all its deparimenis-po-
litical, literary, scientific and art, but es-
pecialiy in its political matter. We find
the articles under the headings Of ~. S.
Grant, by General Of the United States
Army" HThe Plea for standing Armies, =
Are We Free People" &c, AMI consider
able Of the melonge which makes up the
Editors Table, Of especial interest At this
etenffnl moment in our national history.
Every member Of the democracy should
read these articles. The balance Of the
number contains the usual miscellany,
very varied ard entertaining. The Book
Table il even sbovs the nrarags, which is
no ordinary commeBdati0n. Let ever one
read the OLD GUARD; IL win do him good.

Thanksgiving Proclamation.
President Johnson has issued tn,

President johnson has issued the
following proclamation:
In the year which is now drawina
to its end, vhc art, the skill and the
labor Of the people of the United
States have been employed with
greater diligence and vigor and Oh
broader fields than ever before, and
the fruits of the earth have been
gathered into the granary and the
storehousc in marvellous abundance
Our highways have been lengthcned
and new and prolific regions have
bcen occupied. We arc permitted to
hopc that long protracted political
and sectional discussions are at nc
distant day to give place to returning
harmony and fraternal affection
throughout tho Republic. Many
foreign States have entered into
liberal agreements with us, while
nations which are far off, and which
heretofore have been unsocial and
exclusive have become our friends.
The annual period of rest which we
have reached in health and tran
guilty, and which is crowned with
30 many blessings, is, by universal
consent, n convenient and suitable
one for cultivating personal piety
and practicing public devotion.
E therefore recommend that
Thursday, the Goth of November
next, be set apart and observed by
all the people of the United States
as a day ofpublic praise, thanksgiv-
ing and prayer to the Almighty
Creator and Divine Ruler of tho
universe, by whose ever watchful
and gracious providence alone States
and nations, no less than families
and individual men, do move and
live and have their being.
In witness whereof, | have here
unto set my hand and caused the
seal of the United States to be af-
fcxd.
Done at the city of Washington
this 18th day of October, in the year
of our Lord 1868, and of the indie
pcndence of the United States the
nincty-ihird. ANDREW JOHNSON.

FRoM KANSAS CITY, Mo.--THE Missouri
RIVER AND GALVESTON r. R.--"A Disfran-
chized Rebel writes to the Waxahachie
Argus, from Kansas City, under date OF
October 9th, and says, the long talked OF
Missouri River and Gulf r. R.-or as it is
generally called, the Galveston r. R.--has
at last been commenced, and five miles of
it are already finished and construction
trains running on it. The contractors pro-
pose to be at 0latho, Kan. on or about the
10th of November next and at Paola Kan,
middle of January, 1869. This r. r. has
its aim TO reach point on Red River, near
Preston, Texas, and, when finished, will be
Of incalculable value, not alone to This
point, but 10 the entire portion of Northern
Texas. Kansas City is situated about due
North, and distant 4G5 miles from Waxa-
hachie. Many wagons have been loaded
here with goods for Sherman and the from
tier counties of Texas. Before long, with
iuS HoSictduNS VI thO ~. ~ D. LOu'u,
an enormous trade must spring up between
this point and Northwestern Arkansas the
Indian Territory and Northern Texas. The
cattle trade, which has been and is still
seeking its inlet by the Union Pacific, will
be obliged 10 come eventually to this
place. We have a strong hope that the
almost interminable distance which divides
our locality from yours, will soon yield to
the fleet footed on horse, and that our
respective sections shall be, as it were
closely united.
Col. Pleas. Taylor, of Lancaster, Texas,
and his family are residing Temporarily in
Kansas City. They propose TO return to
Texas some time during the next month
Col Nicholson, late Of the firm of Nicholson
& Ferris, Of Dallas, Texas, resides here,
and is engaged in his profession. He is
doing well, and is delighted with this coun-
try; SO much so that on my asking him
how he liked it he replied, sit is the finest
country God Almigbiy's sun ever shone
on i" and agree with him fully.
Messrs. Shannon, Of Wise county, and
W. A. George, Of Lancaster, Texas, are in
the City, and disposing Of their cattle.

MASONRY IN TIE EAST--Mr
Robert Morris, who was sent to the
East some time since, by the Masons
Of this country, to make eNplora-
tons concerning the frecmasonry Of
the Eastern nations, has returned
In n lecture delivered recently at
Cooper's Institute, New York, he
said he had found eight Masonic
Lodges at Smyrna, which included
most of the foreign consuls and
Turkish dignitarics. At Ephcsus
he attended u Masonic picnic. At
Bcyrout he found the only Lodge
in Palestine. Among its members
is the Pasha Of all the territory from
Asia Minor to Egypt. At Damas-
Gus he found sixteen Masons, among
them the renowned Abdel Kadir,
who gave Mr. Morris the symbolical
kisses on the right and left cheeks,
There is great prejudice against
Masonry in Syria and Palestine,
except among the higher Turkish
officers and the few educated and
intelligent men to be found there.
Nowhere is there such an attach
ment to the order as among the Mo
hammedans.
Ancient traces of the order are
numerous. On the keystone Of an
arch under Solomon's Temple, the
Masonic compass is found deeply
cut in stone,
