A PROCLAMATION.

4
Notwithstanding the present depression OF
business, and the accompanying distress, the
people of this country continue to enjoy
manifold blessings, and the more especially
in the preservation of their institutions and
liberties, through the vicissitudes OF centu-
ry, and in the steadfast faith that the light
of Gods favor is only temporarily dimmed
by the clouds that darken the country.
Now, therefore, l, John +. Hartranft.
Governor of Pennsylvania, do recommend
that the good people of this Commonwealth,
laying aside all secular occupations, assem-
BILE together on the 30th day of November,
1876, being the same day set apart therefor
by the President of the United States, to
give thanks to Almighty God for his contin-
ued kindness, and to merit by prayers and
thankfuln, So the fulGllment of all reasona-
BILE hopes, and the qualification of all Just
desires.
Given under my hand and the great seal
of ths State, at Harrisburg, this 3lst day of
October in the year of our Lord one thou
sand eight hundred and seventy-six, and of
fthe Commonwealth the one hundred and
first. J. +. HARTRANFT.
By the Governor:
NJ. S. QUAY, .......
Secretary of the Commonwealth.

The Cheapest Soap that can be used for the JollCu-
ing Reasons:
1st.-One bar viii go as far as two Of any other
2d.-Only half the usual rubbing being required,
there Is saving of more than the entire cost OF the
Soap In labor alone.
3d-The Clothes are made SWEET, CLEAN and
WHITE without BOILING or SCALDING, thus all
injury to them is avoided There is saving In fuel
and hard work. and the washing is done In about
half the usual time
IT is also guaranteed under penalty OF fifty dol
lars not to injure the clothes or hands, and as one
trial will enable any person to ascertain the truth or

This is also superior Soap for SHAVING and Toll

HUNDRrDs of people yesterday re-
marked that it seemed just like spring
weather. The rain, and mist, and fog,
and the public expression probably put
tine idea into the Starting boys head.
He came down town and bought stuffed
robin at bird store, went home and pla-
ced it on the limb Of shade tree and
when the father came home to dinner his
attention was called to the tuct that the
spring birds had returned
Goodness gracious me !" he exclaim-
ed as he put on his spectacles and saw
the robin.
Wiptor is over isn't it !" inquired
Mrs. Starting.
"Of course it is. We'll, that beats me
You might as well take the money leid
By for more coal and fix the children NJ
with new Shoes"
While the old man was combing hi
hair for dinner Tom pat the bird on The
gatepo.t, and his father saw the seconC
robin and exclaimed:
ELIZA, if any poor folks come aroun(
here give 'em half those 'taters in the eel
lar, for the weather'll be hottor'n blaze
in less than a month";"
Before the innocent man showed bacl
from the table the bird was roosting on ;
shrub, but careless handling had pulle,
all the tailfcathers out.
"That can't be a robin" mused the oil
man, and he put on his hat and went on
: and lifted the bird from the limb. Will
he was lifting, Tom was flying down th
, alley. How he came out last night tn
public may never know.
