PROCLAIM ALTON.

In accordance with practice at once wise and
beautiful we have been accustomed as the year is
craving to close to devote occasion to the hum
BILE expression of our thanks to Almighty God, for
the ceaseess and distinguished benefits bestowed
upon us as a nation, and for His mercies and pro-
tection during the closing year. Amid the rich and
frer enJoyment of all our advantages we should not
forget the sources from whence they are derived
and the s0tent Of obligations to the Father of III
Mercies. We have full reason to renew our thanks
TO Almighty God for avors bestowed upon us during
the past year By His continuing mercy civil and
rengi0us liberty have been maintained; peace has
reigned within our borders, labor and enterprise
nave produced their merited rewards, and to His
Watchful providence we indebted to security
rom pestilence and other national calamity Apart
from national blessings, each individual among MS
has occasion tn thankfully recall and eyoutly recoo
nze the avors and protection which he has enjoye3
Now, therefore, j, Ulysses s. Grant, President of
the United States. do recommend that on THURsDAY
the 25th day or November the people of the United
States abstaining from all secular pursuits and from
their accust omed avoeaons do assemble in their re-
spective places Of worship and in such form az NAV
seem most appropriate in their own hearts offer to
Almighty God their aoknowedgments and thanks
for all His merces, and their humble PRAYERS for a
continuance Of His divine favor. 5170-,~

Ihe Brush Quarterly Reyiesc for October,
republished by the Leonard Scott Publishing
Co., Al Barclay Street, n. Y, has been re.
ceived. 1t ontains eight papers
The object of an essay on Religious Arr is
to ascertain ''the truth about the relative posi-
tons, attributes, and powers of art and podli.
hess" On the ground that art is the labor of
human hands, whereas religion is an aspira.
tion Oh the SOU" OF which the hands are ig-
norant, it is contended that art can not be re.
ligious.
"One great aim of Lueretius, in the DE Re-
rum NdtaTd, was to set forth the scientific
truths of the time; and its value in the eyes
of science now lies in its full and exact state
ment of an ancient theory which the latest ex-
periments confirm" The Atomic Theory,
which an article fully explains, did not origin
ate with Lucretius, but is attributed to Epicu-
rus, and was taught by Democritus, who died
b. Q. $50. The creed of Epcurus is pronounced
to be substantially the same as that of the
modern materialst. ift1 -
Article III. begins with review of Queen
Mary, and branches off into notice of Tenpy-
sons other poems. their merits defects, and
popularity, and the probable permanence of
the authors political reputation.
The paper on The Etruscans aod their Lam
guage, is chiefly interesting to philologists It
contains careful comparison of the theories
of DR.. Corssen, who believes the Eruscan TO be
an Italic dialect, and of Mr.. Isaac Taylor, who
claims that it is of Ugric derivation.
The essay on Modern Necromacy points out,
that while there is ample testimony as to the
occurren "a of phenomena inexpicable accord
ing to the general order and Limitation of or
ganic life, the study of these phenomena has
not advanced single step beyond the establish
ment of their objective reality" that its study
is attended with disadvantage and danger, and
with results that are absolutely unreliable, and
that modern splrituasm is identical with an
cient necromancy. -,.. ..t.-.l-
line only biographical notice in this number
is sketch of the life and works of Isaac
Casaubon, representative scholar of the
sixteenth century, who, living at time when
Catholic power was in the ascendant, found his
progress constantly checked by his firm adher-
ence to the Protestant faith, which the con-
slant efforts made by his Catholic friends for
his conversion were powerless to overcome.
Many interesting details are given, with ex-
tracts from CasauboI's letters and journal.

This is the first intimation which we have

Prof. Swing is not disposed to be melan-

The refusal of the Synod of Illinois North
to do anything with his case calls from him
this go0d-natured comment: 1.-THE Fourth
Church, upon the assumption that the Synod
was about to act on its case. sat down and
waited, and then the Synod upon the as
sumption that the church is about to act,
has sat down and waited, and now they both
sit looking at each other in most lamb-like
fashion. They remind us of the two French
gentlemen, who, failed to have carriage ride
because neither was willing to be so rude as
to enter the carriage first"
