Am RIGA.

BY the President of the Emitted States OF
America.
Washington, IA. The approaching close
Of another year brings with it the occasion for
renewed thanksgiving and Acknowledgement
to the Almighty ruler of the Universe for the
numbered mercies which He has bestowed
upon the United States. Abundant harvests
have been among the rewards of industry,
with local exceptions. Health has been
among the blessings enjoyed. Tranquility at
home, and peace with other nations have
prevailed. Frugal industry is regainng its
merited recognition ard its merited rewards.
Gradually, bur under the providence of God
surely, as we trust, the Nation is recovering
from the lingering results of dreadful civil
strife. For these and all the other mercies
vouchsafed, it becomes US people to re-
turn heartfelt and grateful acknowledge
meuts and with our thanksgiving, we may
| unite in prayers for the cessation of local
and temporary suffering. !, therefore, re-
commend that on
Thursday, the 9th of November next,
the people meet in their respective places of
worship to make their acknowledgements to
| Almighty God for his bounties and his protec-
ton, and to offer to him prayers for their con-
| tinuance.
In witness whereof. have hereunto set my
hand and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington, this, the
fourteenth day of October, in the year of
our Lord, 1873, and of the Independence
of the United States, the 9th.
