THANKsGIvING DAY.-In accordance with
the prOclamations of the President of thu
United States and of Mayor Bowen, yesterday
was generally observed in Washington a. a
day OF thanksgiving and prayer. Tho Govern
ment Departments, municipal offices, and
places OF business were closed, and the CITY
wore Sunday aspect. The weather was de-
hghtful, and the churches which held special
services were filled with attentive congrega.
ions. There was less than the usual disorder
throughout the city on holiday occasions, and
altogether the day was most becomingly OBJ
served by all classes. Notwithstanding the
political troubles which still disturb some Sec
lions of the country, Americans have much to
be thankful for. Providence has smiled upon
us, and bestowed bountiful harvests; we are
exempt from war, pestlence, and famine, and
our political future seems TO be full of promise
Altogether We have been peculiarly blessed as
a people, and II Is right that we should devote
one day In the year 10 return thanks to the
Oliver Of all good for His mercies, and to pray
continuance of His bounty.

The New York Dsmocrdt, the personal organ
of the notorious Brick" Ponaroy, holds
views upon the financial situation that must
be cheering to the "b!oated bond holders" Re-
ferring to discussion now going on between
the New York WOrLI q nd the Cincinnati En-
7uiTer,-the organs, respectively, of the Eastern
and Western DemOcraey,-as TO the mole Of
paying the bonds issued by the Government,
that patriotic person blurts out:-"Why wran
gle about what will never happen in any form
The day has gone by for considering hou0 tue
bonds shall u paid. They will never De paid
1t all, and therefore the h0g is OF no coas,-
quence." Which is important if true. This
result we are told, furthermore, all grows on
Of the election Of Gen. Grant. But now Mr.. p
squares his theory with the facts that the plat
form upon which Gen. Grant stood declared
that the bonds shosld be paid, and A1.v. and that
the people endorsed these declarations pretty
unanimously ~ the late election, be does no,
attempt TO explain His statements are start
ling, however, II his logic is lame.

Terrible Disaster at Near York.
Ferry Boat CoYision-7 THIRTY Persons
Killed and Wounded.

Two of the ferry boats plying between
New York and Brooklyn, the Hamilton
and the Union, of the Union ferry COM
pany, collided early Saturday morning
with most disastrous results. Five per-
son were killed or MORALLY wounded
at the instant of the first shock, and
twenty-five or thirty were more or less
seriously injured. The Hamilton left
her slip on the Brooklyn side at half
past seven o'clock, having on board an
unusually large number of passengers,
many of the girls and laborers coming
over to New York to their daily work.
They proceeded safely until quite near
her slip on the New York side, when
the propeller Gulf City, which was en-
deavoring to enter neighboring slip,
suddenly let go her stern line and swung
around directly in the Hamilton's
course. The Hamilton, laboring against
a flood tide, in her efforts to clear the
propeller and also to en- ter her own slip,
failed of both, and went with terrible
and almost unchecked force against the
side of the ferry boat Union, which was
laying in an adjoining slip.
Many of the pass engers on the Ham
ilton had crowded to the forward part
of the boat, causing her decks to sink
several inches below the guards of the
Union, and so sudden was the shock
that 4everal persons, unable to retreat,
were caught between the guards of the
two boats as they overlapped and ter
ribly crushed. The scene on the Ham
ilton was hcartrending, and on board,
and on the adjoining pier, all was con-
fusion and terror until the police took
charge of affairs. The Hamilton was
speedily towed out and brought into her
own slip, when the dead and wounded
were carried ashore and properly dispos-
ed of. The loss to the co npany will be
light-probably not over $1,000.
The killed were George Brewer, a
printer boy, who was going to his work
in New York, and stood with his din
'ner pail in his hand ready to spring
ashore, at the moment of the collision ;
George Devoe, laborer; Mrs. Heart of
Brooklyn Carlos Krous and Margret
Mullin. John Thompson, of the New
York SIN building, was struck in the
breast by the flying timbers and is
thought to be MORALLY wounded. The
injured were dispatched in carriages as
soon as possible to the Bellevue and
City hospitals.
j. w. Albertson, pilot of the Hamil-
ton, and A. White, deck hand, were
ARRESTED and are held to await the re-
suit of the cOroner's examination. They
are charged with gross carelessLe ss, and
to their negligence or incOmpentency
is ascribed he accident.

LOCKING UP GREENBACKS.-A great
deal has been said oflate about "loclIing
up greenbacks" for the purpose of max
ing money scarce, and to those IMMERSED
in financial strategy the following eX-
PLANTATION of the process by the New
York Commercial will be found interest
ing:
"The following was the mode first
employed; Several parties would con-
solidate their capital to the extent of
several hundred thousand dollars in
greenbacks, and leaving this heavy
amount as collateral security with home
moneyed institution, borrow an equal
amount at say seven per cent, interest.
That collateral. of course, could not be
used by the institution. With the
fresh supply of funds the operators
would proceed to second bank and
lock up another heavy amount of green
backs, and so keep on until they had re-
moved from circulation several millions
of money. Stringency would follow |;
speculative shares would DECLINE, and

The committee appointed ~ the
Union League to consider the subject OF
the alleged frauds ut the election in this
city have made preliminary report
stating the facts, which have also been
testified to, before the courts in the
case of Rosenberg, and rehearsing the
confidential circular sent by the Tam
many managers TO tn rural districts
previous to the election, and Mayor
Hotfiman's proclamation, and abiding
to certain cases Of violence and terror
ism at the polls rs being among the
measures plotted to change the vote of
the State. ut is perhaps possible" they
say, THAT we are without remedy
against the stupendOus fraud perpetrat-
ed against the people. 1t may be that
our State and Congressional legislation,
anticipating no such crime. has proceed
ed upon the suppoositlon that our judges
and other officials would be uniformly
protectors Of the franchise and never
tool of the conspiracy against it's purity.
1t may be that for two years we must
submit to the wrongful rule Of usurpers,
who have effected a temporary triumph
over men honestly chosen by the peo-
pie, and this in the face of proofs that
compel the Eelief that the Democratic
majOrities were obtained by fraud but,
if this be so, and we find ourselves with
out redress or indemnity for the past, it
is due to ourselves and our children, to
the nation and to the world, that we
enter our protest against this wrong,
and that we obtain by all proper means
security for the future" They say they
disbelieve the averment that frauds
have been committed by both parties,
and say they hope the Mayor and his
associates who proclaimed it will bring
to justice every Republican who may
have been guilty of so foul II crime.
They conclude by stating the course
they intend to pursue for the gathe ring
Of proof which shall satisfy Congress
and the State Legislature that The De-
mocratic majorities for the Electoral and
State ticketswere fraudulently obtained,
anu thus secure legislation to protect the
purity of the franchise, and to induce
good citizens to combine for common
protection against political fraud and
corruption. They have opened an Office
at 25s Broadway, for this purpose.
