On Sabbath 25th inst. Rev. G. s. Tole addressed two of the churches in this village and one at Housatonlc. His object, to en- list interest in the ''Home for little wander ers," established in Baldwin Place, Boston. Collections in the three churches amounted to two hundred and twenty dollars. Sing ing by the young choir, which accompa- nied MT. T., was greeted with much pleas ure. It was surprise, probably, to ma ny to know that from this reglon of abun. dance, there should be gathered suffering children to participate in the beneyolent provision of the "Home " in Baldwin Place. The Sabbath School Convention, proposed to meet here on the 2Sh, assem- bled in the Congregational merting house. The discussions as named in the neatly printed 'order of exercises suggested ma ny useful hints to those engaged in this form of instruction. The thoughts presen- ted by Miss Morris were introduced in 8 simple and direct manner. Her alticula- ton was SO clear that no elevation ot the voice above natural key was required. A spe ciinen method with class, exhibited questions to elicit from the pupils, that al ready shown, and starting from this, addi- ton of teaching in language adapted to the understanding. This was done in a most engaging and encouraging style and noted in like manner by the large audiences of the afternoon and evening. The happy thought of union of tte denominations and the cordial hospitality to the many visitors, rendered it altogether very enjoyable oc- casion. The easy pleasure of the listeners to Miss Morris, and the evident correct .ap- preciation of her utterances, suggested 8 comparison with the gentlemen speakers, as to the natural advantage possessed by the gentler Sex in not being tempted by strange fancy, or fashion, or figment ot the imagination, as to their throats, and SO to disguise the mouth. A wonder is it, that any aiming at acceptable public ad- dress land why speak ct all, without that aim? should voluntarily debar themselves of the superlative value of the action of that feature. Every true elocutionist is sensible that the full expression of his countenance belongs to his audience, that unimc numbered lip and chin, conJoined with eye is needful in order to lmpart with con- pleteness, the thought of his mind. to an- other. And, the every where craving for eloquence, the hunger and thirst for it in it's purity and perfection, demands that on the platform, and Tn the pulpit, the orator confer the rich beauty of expression con- tributed by view of each feature of the face.

NATIONAL THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION.


 President Grant has issued the following proclam ation:
 By t1e Preside1st of tue United States cf
 AnaerScG. A PrOc5ansatio'o:'
 We are reminded by the changing seasons that it is tune to pause in our daily voca- tions and offer thanks to Almighty God for the mercies and abundance of the year, which is drawing to close. The blessings of free government continue to be vouch- safed to us, the earth has responded to the labor of the husbandman, the land has been free from pestience, internal order is being maintained, peace with other powers has prevailed. It is fitting that at stated periods we should cease from our accustomed pur- suits and from the turmoil of our daily lives, and unite in thankfulness for the blessings of the past, and in the cultivation of kindly feelings towards each other.
 Now, therefore, recognizing these con. alterations, l, Ulysses s. Grant, President of the United States, do recommend to all citizens to assemble in their respective places of worship on Thursday. the 26th day of November next, and express their thanks for the mercy and favor of the AL mighty God, and laying aside all political contentious and all secular occupations, to observe such day of praise.
 In witness whereof I have hereunto SC, my hand, and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.
 Done at the city of Washington this the 27th day of October, in the year 1874, and of the Independence of the United States the 99th. (Signed) U. S. GRANT. HAMILTON FISH, Secretary of State.

Her husband had recently been killed by one of the gang, who did the deed for the reward of $ll ,OoO, offered for Reid, dead or alive, by the Texan authorities.
