NATIONAL THANKSGIVING
A Proclamation.

The approaching close of another year brings with
it the occasion for renewed thanksgiving and
Acknowledgement to the Almighty Ruler of the Uni
verse for the unnumbered mercies which He has be-
slowed 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 regain
ing its merited recognition and its merted rewards
Gradually but, under the Providence of God, surely
trust, the nation is recovering from the nger
ing results of dreadful civil strife. For these and
all the othtr mercies vouchsafed it becomes a
people to return heartfelt and grateful acknowledge
ments, and with our thanksgiving we may unite in
prayers for the cessation of local and temporary
suffering. therefore recommend that on Thursday,
the 9th day of November next, the people meet in
their respective places of worship TO make their
acknowledgements to Almighty God for His bounties
and His protection and to offer to Him prayers for
heir continuance.
In witness whereof l have hereunto set my hand
ami 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 one thousand eight hundred and seventy
three, and of the independence Of the United
States the nnety-seventh.

Miss MINK, who has been on trial for sew
eral days at Rockland, has been acquitted.
This verdict, to those who have read the tes-
timony, is not unexpected, as the Govern
ment failed to make out case, But why the
spectators in the Court should break out IN
loud and prolonged applause on the announce
ment of the verdict of not guilty, is wholly
inexplicable. BY her own testimony in the
trial she was participant in two murders,
and in the community where she lives she is
believed to he guilty of strangling another
child of her own after its birth. 1t is to be
hoped, for the reputation of Maine people,
that this story of applause, growing out of
sympathy with this utterly abandoned wo-
man, arises out of the moral alteration of an
imaginative and sensational reporter.

CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN THE Pope AND
THE GERMAN EMPERoR.-The following is an
abstract of the correspondence that has recent
ly taken place between Pho Mono and Kaiser
William:
The Pope writes, Aug T. that the measures
of His Majesty's Government aim at the de-
struction of Catholicism. He is unable to dis
cover the reason for such severity. Being in
formed aud believing that the Emperor is
averse to increase and continue this harsh poll
cy, he points out tibet the measures are inju-
rious to the Christian religion, and only tend to
undermine the throne. He speaks frankly, as
truthfulness to ali is his duty, and all the bap-
tized, even nom Catholics, belong in a certain
sense to him.
The German Emperor replies Sept. 3, reioic-
ing at the opportunity to correct errors relating
to German affairs. If the Pope was truthfully
informed he would be aware that the Govern
ment cannot act against the approval of the
sovereign. The Emperor deeply regrets that a
portion of his Catholic subjects (priests) have
organized a party which is engaged in in
trigue against the State, disturbing religious
peace to the extent of open revolt against ex-
listing laws. He points to indications of SINH
lar mo vements in other parts of Europe and
America, and declares that he will maintain
order and law so long as God enables him to do
So even against the servants of a church which
he supposed acknowledged the obedience of
secular authority as a comman 1ment of God
This doctrine OF obedience, however, he regrets
| to see so many priests in Prussia disown He
expresses the hope that now the Pope has been
informed of the truth, he will use his authority
to terminate the agitation, which he declares
before God has no connection with religion
or truth

RESUMPTION Hon. Amasa Walker has
written letter upon the resumption of specie
payment, in which he commends the plan pro-
posed by Senator Sumner, in 1871, which was
as follows: 1. That the Secretary of the Trea-
sury should be directed to prepare compound
interest notes, payable in three years, bearing
interest like those issued during the war, at 6
per cent, of denominations suitable for circu-
lation. Five millions of these were to be dated
the LIST of each month, and paid out for all dues
of the Government, except those payable in
gold. 2. They were to be convertible at the end
option of the holder, and to be lega! tender.
.. Greenbacks were to be cancelled as they came
INTO the National Treasury as fast as the COM
pound interest notes were issued By this pro-
cess the present circulatory notes of the Trea-
sury would all be taken in and DESTROYED and
