Thanksgiving INSTRUMENTATION by
the President.

tnt Il ItStuCiNs
The President, on Satur lay, 2Stli
ult., issued his proclamation, nam
ing Nov. 30th as a day OF national
thanksgiving. as follows:
By the President # tie United States
Of America.
A PROCLAMATION.
The process of the seasons has
again enabled the husbandman to
garner the fruits of successful nj.
Industry has been generally well re-
wardcd. We are at peace with all
nations, and tranquility with few OK
ccptions, prevails at home. Within
the past year we have in the main
beer, free from ills which elsewhere
have afflicted our kind. If some of
us have had calamitics, these should
be an occasion for sympathy with
the sufferers, of resignation on thei
part to the will of the Most High,
and Of rejoicing TO the many who
have been more favored.
| therefore recommend that on
Thursday, the tlirtieth day Of No
v mber, next, the people meet in
their respective places of worship,
and there make the usual annual &C
acknowledgements to Almighty God
for the blessings He has conferred
upon them, for their mcrciful excmp-
ton from evils, and invoke His pro-
lection and kindness for their less
fortunate brethr. n, whom in His wis
dom, He has deemed it best to chas-
tisc.
In faith whereof | have hcrcunto
set my hand, and caused the seal Of
the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city Of Washington,
this twenty-cighth day of October,
in the year of our Lord one thous-
and, eight hundred and scvcnty-onc,
and of the independence of the Uni
ted States, the ninety-sixth.
