successfully prosecuted their peaceful
paths The mines and forests have
yielded literally. The nation has i'm
creased in wealth and in strength, peace
has prevailed and its blessings have ad-
vanced every interest OF the people in
every part of the Union. elT J
Harmony and fraternal Intercourse re-
stored, and obliterating the marks of the
past conflict and estrangement, burdens
have been lighted, means increased, civil
and religious liberty are secured to every
inhabitant of the land, whose soil is trod
by none but free men.
II becomes people thus favored to
make acknowledgements to the Supreme
Author from whom such blessings flow,
of their gratitude and their independence,
to render praise and thanksgiving for the
same, and devoutly to implore a contin-
uance of Gods mercy. Therefore, J.,
Ulysses S. Grant, President of the United
States, do recommend that Thursday, the
18th day of November next, be observed
as a day OF thanksgiving, and of peace,
and of praise to Almighty God, the crea-
tor and ruler of the universe; and second
ly, l do further recommend to all the
people of the United States to assemble
on that day in their accustomed places of
public worship, and to unite in the hom-
age and praise due to the bountiful Father
of all mercy, and in feryent prayers for
the continuance of the mercifnl blessings
He has vouchsafed to.us as a people.
In testimony whereof, have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed, this, the 5th
day of October, A. d. 1869, and of the in
of the United States Of
America the ninety fourth.

the burden upon the laboring people of
the country is, after ali, very small. But
] must say no system OF taxation. is de-
siralde that-does not look to- a large tax
upon iuxuries OF accumulated property,
tins relieving ttle labor and ordinary
business of life to as large degree as
possible.
Mr.. boutwell, stated the reasons which
controlled The Administration in the sp-
pllcat5n OF the surplus fund. Congress
had nrehibited the diminution of the
amount oc greepIrcks, and neither them
nor the fifty millions of three per cents
could be redeemed without departure
from the law OF Congress, by which the Sec
retary was required to allow the value of
currencv to remain as it was when he
entered oilice; therefore, there remained
only the course which has been pursued,
TO issue six per cent. bonds at the market
price. Ii
Mr.. Boutwell, concluded by an appeal
to workingmen, to see that means of edu-
cation arc furnished to children, to incul-
cate justice and 1ule the land under prin-.
cipIes Of virtue guided by intelligence.
