WEsroN's GREAT WA1K.-One month
from December 1, Weston is to COM
mence his walk of five thousand miles,
having accepted the proposition of Dan
Rice. By accepting the terms of that
proposition, Mr.. Weston pledges him
self to do his best to walk five thousand
miles in one hundred days, exclusive
of Sundays, which reduces the actual
time granted to complete the march
into eighty six days. In case he ac-
complishes the task. he is pledged a
purse of $4,000.
The march of five thousand miles
will carry Weston from Bangor, Maine,
to ST Paul, Minnesota, and thence
back, by different route, to the city
of New York and it is well calculated
to arouse the enthusiasm of our some
what mucurial people. On the walk
from Portland to Chicago, the distance
and time to accomplish it is required
that the pedestrian should make an
average of forty-seven miles daily, and
that walk, made in o more propituous
of the season of the year, called forth
the widest applause from the thou
sands who, night and day, thronged the
line of march. In the five thousand
mile march Weston will be required to
make daily average of So IT miles,
or more than eleven miles in excess of
the average on the road to Chicago, and
this at the season of the year when rain
falls and snow impedes the progress OF
even railroad trains If the past may
be taken as an index to the future,
considering the great difficulty of the
feat, the hero of the wonderful walk at
White Plains will rally around him
unnumbered thousands to shout his
name and cheer him on his weary march.
As matter of course Young and Old

GOVERNOR OF NEW JERSEY.

GOVERNOR OF NEW JERSEY
The events of the past year afford abundant
cause fol most heartfelt Thanksgiving to Al
mighty God
Our country seems to be entering upon a
new life Of peace and prosperity. Commerce,
manufacturers and the pursuits Of agriculture
are melted to renewed yigor and activity.
Personal liberty and public security seem to
he insured TO MS for all time. The enduring
triumph of the principles Of free government
over rebellion and anarchy III this land is re-
generating the nations of the earth. and the
liberal principles OF equality and recognition
of man as man are working good through
out the world, which none can limit.
Let us then thank God for these and all
other mereies. Lei us especially thank Him
for His blessings upon this our beloved State
That while increasing in every material
wealth we have been during the past year eX-
empted from all natural commissions pesti-
lence and famine That our citizens in the
enjoyment Of the fullest liberty are a moral,
yirtuous and law-abiding people-That the
poor and INDECENT have been cared for, the
disabled soldiers of the State supported and
their orphans protected, and that the oppor-
tunities of education and advancement are
open to all.
For these reasons, and in accordance with
established custom, J. MARCUS l.. WARD,
Governor of the State of New Jersey, do here
by set apart and appoint
THURSDAY, the 26th day of Novem-
Der. instant,
az day Of Thanksgiving, Prayer and Praise,
and do recommend that upon that day the
people of this State assemble III their various
places OF worship and prayer, andwh hum
bly, acknowledging the mercies of our all gra-
cious Father in the past, do invoke him to be
with us in the future.

THE POOR.

The forests have now lost their glori-
GUS coloring, and the gorgeously tinted
caves have fallen into dry and restless
siles. The moon shines with lustre
hat suggests cool, rare atmosphere,
and the evening winds meet one with a
chilly greeting. Soon we shall have
the bitter cold, the deep hard frost, the
binding snow that make our long lie.
lentless winter. All, how cosyit is then
to draw closely around the cheerful
crate and feel its genial warmth to
hear the night winds hurrying by with
its mournful song and not indulge a
shiyer; to listen to the storm as it
whistles around your north corner, and
battles with the faithful window panes
that shield You from its fury, and smile
with perfect comfort. But think how
many at this moment sit with dread
expectancy of suffering; how many
even now hug tightly the few rags that
cover them and devotedly pray for
help how many with chattering teeth
and aching hearts envy you the com
fort and the luxury, perhaps, that
makes your life so pleasant. Is there
nothing you can do to relieve some of
this misery ? We are aware that indis-
criminate charity is not judicious, and
that perhaps a majority of the applica-
tions made for assistance are from i'm
posters who would abuse the kindness
shown them. But yet we sometimes
think that it were better to misapply
cur generosity, rather than have our
poor hungry sue creature turned
starving and cold from our doors.
Those of our readers who can rejoice in
the fact that a part OF their time has
been given to their country, can recall,
doubtless, some day, or week, or month,
when. far from home in an enemy's
land. they have felt what it was to want
for food, for clothing and for shelter.
They can remember too with what fer
vency they hoped, almost III vain it
seemed, to reach home alive even
though it should be at a distant day
and how firmly they resolved that never
again would they be deaf to the cry of
want. 1t may be that it is little you
can do but that little may keep some
brave Which has struggled nobly

belief that humanity is not supremacy
selfish.
In addition to such charity Us noy be
administered directly, there are many
deserving societies for the relief of the
destitute among us, that need aid from
your hands. It is not necessary that
this aid should be money. There is
scarcely family of moderate circum-
stances in this city which has not some
thing in the way of bed-clothing or
garments that might be made of use
while now it is food for moths.
If there is no family whom you know
to be in actual need of such contribu-
tions to their assistance, you will have
ample opportunity to give in response
to invitations from our city pulpits.
Do not let the ladies OF this community
who toll with such zeal that the poor of
America may bless the land Of their
nativity or adoption, work without
proper encouragement. We can all do
something. Ii it is not within our
means to help the plates that are passed
in church, we can call out all cur sur
plus wardrobe that we shall never again
have use for, and call down blessings
from some grateful creature that it
helps to clothe. Do not be inherent
to the squalor and suffering that every
winter witnesses in our midst. You,
to spend your money freely for political
purposes, remember your own children
when some sad little face, pale with
sorrow and hunger, drop into yotr ear
its pathetic "please sir. You, young
gentleman, whose closets are numbered
with coats and vests and trousers that
never will be worn again, do take little
trouble and place these useful articles
at the disposal of those who can make
them available. You never will miss
them, and they will do great good.
And you, young ladies-can we not in
duce you to employ those dainty fingers
that know no harder labor than delicate
in work of more substantial
kind ? Would you not feel a thrill of
more exquisite Joy at seeing some tear
full eyes overflow with gratitude at your
than you ever experienced :?
(of course we except the moment Arthur
took your yielding hand in his and
vowed his eternal fidelity. And would
it not be worth your while to know the
that follows cost Try
it, and see if we overrate the feeling.
The poor and unfortunate are always
with us, and it is our duty no less than
our privilege to see that they do not
suffer. The mite of the widow was, in
proportion to her resources, munif-
cent gift. Are there any who can plead
means less than hers in view of the
divine recompense
