The National Thanksgiving Day.
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT,
WASHINGTON, Oct. ~, 1875.

A proclamation by the President of
the United States of America
In ACCORDANCE with practice ut once
wise and beautiful, we have been accus-
toned, as the year is drawing to close,
to devote an occasion to the humble ex-
preston of our thanks to Almighty God
Tor the ceaseless and distinguished bene-
fits bestowed upon us as nation, and
the closing year.
Amid the rich and free enjoyment of
all our advantages we should not forget
the source from whence they are de.
rieved, and the extent of our obligations
to the Father of all mercies. We have
full reason to renew our thanks to AL
mighty God for favors bestowed upor
us during the past year.
By His continuing mercy civil and
religious liberty have been maintained |;
peace has reigned within our borders !;
labor and enterprise have produced their
,merited rewards, and to His watchful
providence we are are indebted for Sc
curity from pestilence and other national
calamity.
Apart from national blessings, each
individual among us has occasion to
thoughtfully recall and devoutly recog-
nize the favors and protection which he
has enjoyed. Now, therefore,
I, Ulysses S. Grant, President of the
United States, do recommend than on
Thursday, the 25th day of November,
the people of the United States, abstain
ing from all secular pursuits and from
their accustomed avocations, do assemble
in their respective places of worship,
and in such form as may seem most ap-
propri te in their own hearts, offer to
Almighty God their acknowledgements
and thanks for all His mercies, and their
humble prayers for a continuance of His
divine favor.
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, the
, 9th day of October, in the year of our
Lord one thousand eight hundred and
seventy-fve, and of the independence
of the United States the one hundreth.

A Fine Old English Gentleman.

Here is Upersonal" Of "a fine old
English gentleman, all Of the olden
time the Duke of Portland, one of
the oldest and wealthiest peers now liv-
ing. He OWNS immensely valuable prop
erty in London, and his income is at
least $4,000 day. He has passion
for solitude. Though he has two fine
houses in Cavendish square, few Lon
doners have ever set eyes upon him.
Even at Welbeck abbey, where he passes
most of his time, he lives so much alone
that he will not have any servants to
wait upon him at dinner, but has an
apparatus by which the table is lowered
through the floor to the kichen when it
wants relpenishing. Not that it often
needs this, for the duke has only two
meals q day, at one of which half a
chicken is served, and at the other
meal the other half. Occasionally he
has visitors at Welbeck, but he never
sees them, though they may be in the
house for weeks at time. When he
drives out he is conveyed in a vehicle
hung round with curtains, so that no.
body can see in, and it is drawn by six
Lilliputian ponies. The approaches to
bhC dpucy uie SuDtolldhOuh, anu ohOio
are fifteen miles of tunnels on the estate,
all well ventilated, and many of them
lighted day and night, and adorned with
sculptures. There is splendid stable,
where fifty hunters are kept, though the
duke never hunts. He has gallery of
glass and iron mile long, where they
may exercise in all weathers. The duke
is now constructing three enormous sub
terranean libraries and subterranean
church, and it has taken the workmen
three years to excavate the ground. But
that upon which the duke most prides
himself is his museum. 1t is construct
ed largely of glass, and lighted by chan
deliers, each weighing a ton. II has
taken ten years to fix the glass alone,
and now the pictures are being hung.
They are very choice, as they ought to
be, seeing that the duke some time age
made huge bonfire of paintings which
he did not think good enough, though
they cost many thousand pounds. He
has never been married, and it is sup
posed has never been in love, and as he
is seventy-fve now, he is not likely tc
