A PROCLAMATION,

The approaching close of another year brings with it the occasion for rene wed thanksgivings and Acknowledgements to the Almighty ruler of the universe of the un- numbered mercies which He has bestow d upon us. Abundant harvests have been among the rewards of industry with To- cal exceptions health has been among the blessings enjoyed: tranquility at home and peace with other nations have prevailed !: frugal industry is regaining it's merited recognition and it's merited rewards; grad . ,ually, but under the providence of God, surely, as we trust, the nation is recover ing from the lingering results of dreadful civil strife. For these and all the other mercies vouchsafed it becomes us as peo- pie to return heartfelt and grateful acknowl- judgements, and with our thanksgiving we may unite prayers for the cessation of To- cal and temporary sufferings. therefore recommend that on Thursday, the 27th day of November next, the people meet in thelr respective places of worship to make their acknowledgement to Almighty God for His bounties and his protection, and to offer Him prayers for their continuance.
 In witness whereof have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be fixed. Done at the city of Washington, this k4ih day of October, in the year of our Lord 1873, and of the in dependence of the United States the 97th.

Sheffield,
[Left over from last week.

Left over from last week.
 Your regular correspondent (so, called) has of late been very inconstant from no intention, however, as 'tis the fault of cir cumstances beyond my control. A few of your readers claim to have missed for weeks tue moon rays which occasionally fall from this way on your columns; others will think it a 'shappY miss," for it seems that my pen, in the judgment of some good friends and foes, puts me in a position similar to the renowned Mrs. Burlington, who said she ''never opened her mouth that she did not put her foot in it." I can not please everyone: so must ''look out for number one" by pleasing myself frst...... The time of the sere and yellow leaf is up- on us, and old Sheffield finds herself de- cidedly in an unhealthy condition; much sickness is abroad in the land, and the toll ing bell is often heard proclaiming the VIC tories of the great Destroyer. Dysentary and fevers are the prevailing evils here this season, and at the present time there are several serious cases in our village. Among the recent deaths is that of Gorge Cook. For years he struggled against consump- tion's power yielding at last he has joined his beloved child who died just three weeks previous. MT. Cook has long been r, cog nized as one of Sneff1eld's most entcrpris- ing citizens, having done more toward vil- lage improvements, building, &c. than any other man......Last Thursday evening the Bishop paid visit to Christ's church here and confirmed several of the young peo- pie. This church gradually increases in numbers and strength, bidding fair to be- come in time greatpower in the place. It is fact worthy of note that the founding of this Episcopal society is the result of tue earnest christian efforts of few de voted church-women !......The agricultural fairs having passed, there is general re- turn to everyday life again among the fArming class. Some of our farmers de- clare the fairs were never SO successful as this year, (they are those who received nu- merous first premiums notice,) while oth- CTS proclaim the injustice of fairs in gen eral and particular. Among the pleasing incidents of the past month is tue following romance, Gas we heard it.) A young man from far away feeling matrimonially in clined, advertised for correspondent who could reciprocate his ''feelings!" This advertisement met the eyes of one of Shef- fields blooming maidens, when forthwith she replied giving fancy name, and as suming to be an heiress The bait was A good one and our hero was soon caught in Cupids snare. Real names were finally ex- changed and a visit to the fair one proposed
 Here then was difficulty, for in reality no golden wealth was hers. Braving the si,u. ation, she humbly confessed the deception practIced and implored his forgiveness. Hymen's chains were strong about him; his admiration only increased for the far charmer ana visit was paid one fine Sab bath day. The concluding chapter is not yet written, but We trust all will Ego merry as marriage bell" So much is gained by advertising! LUNA.

 turn about, And when the boys go on spree, their
 mothers know they're out; Our girls can read and write and sing, they
