Thanksgiving Proclamation.

By the President OF the United States !:
From year to year we have been accustomed
to pause in our daily pursuits and set apart
a time to offer thanks to Almighty God for
the special blessings He has vouchssfed to
us, with our prayers for a continuance
thereof. We have at this time equal reason
to be thankful for His continued protection
and for the many material blessings which
His bounty has bestowed. Ir addition to
these favors accorded to us as individuals,
we have special occasion to express our
hearty thanks to Almighty God that by His
prudence and guidance our Government,
established a century ago, has been enabled
to fulfill the purpose Of its founders-in Of
fering an asylum to the people of every
race, securing civil and religious liberty to
all within its borders, and melting to every
individual alike justice and equality before
the law. 1t is, moreover, especially our
duty to offer our humble prayers to the
Father Of all Mercies for a continuance OF
His divine favor to us as q nation, and as
individuals. By reason Of these consid-
eratious, |, Ulysses s. Grant, President OF
the United States, do recommend to the
people Of the United States to devote the
Both of November next to an expression OF
their thanks and prayers to Almighty God,
and, laying aside their daily avocations and
all secular occupations, to assemble in their
respective places OF worship and observe
such day as u day Of thanksgiving and rest.
In witness whereof l have h%ereunto set
my hand and caused the seal OF the United
States to be affixed. Done at the city of
Washington this Goth day of October in the
year OF our Lord one thousand eight hun
dred seventy-six, and Of the independence
OF the United States Of America the one
hundred and first.

Two Bodies Reduced to a Gallon
of Ashes

The Washington (Pa.) Reporter says:
Wednesday we gave the particulars Of
the placing of two bodies in the heated
cremation furnace of DR.. LeMoyne at
$3.50 p. m. on Tuesday, and of the seal
ing up of the furnace at 10 p. m, of the
same day. The sealing up was neces.
sary in order to allow the retort to cool
Off gradually. Yesterday morning it
was still red hot and continued so for
a long time. This morning, about 36
hours after the furnace had been closed,
the retort had cooled of sufficiently and
the iron door which closed it was re-
moved in the presence of the Doctor
and a few friends. Nothing remained
of the bodies and the coffin but about a
gallon of dry dusty ashes, and. crema-
ton in the furnace was pronounced a
grand success.
On Tuesday afternoon when they
were placed in the furnace the bodies
of the two sheep weighed 1872 pounds,
making a total weight of 226 pounds
which was completely reducedto ashes,
la bulk that would not more than fill a
gallon measure.
This experiment shows cremation to
be entirely feasible, and now the ques.
ton presents itself, will it become pop.
ularP Aside from the prejudices grow
ing out of habit and education, there
can be but little said against it. The
Doctor could write a volume in its favor,
and give many reasons why this mode
of disposing of the dead should be
adopted that would be difficult to an
swer. The subject is now under dis
cussion all owe the country, and, in
deed, all over the civilized world, and
all sorts of opinions are ELECTED. What
ever the result may be, the Doctor has
given Washington tho distinction OF
having tie first cremation furnace in
America.

DEAR" said Dick, 'say no more about

evasion on the part of Dick but as his
wife kept daily DINING in his ears
about the dog he was at last compelled
to take action in the matter. swell,
wife," said he one day; ''I've sold Jow-

A sTAGE-CoACH was robbed of SG4,-
600 in gold, in 1870, by five men, who
buried the plumber, agreeing to return
and get it after the search was over.
They were so closely watched, how
ever, that they dared not go near the
place; and lately four of them met in
San Francisco. They were %penniless,
and in order to get the money with
which to make the journey to Idaho,
they made George r. Bailey a partner,
he furnishing the needed cash. On ar
irving at the place where they had
buried the gold, they saw that it was
gone. The fifth robber had been there
before them. They went back to San
Fancisco, obtaineda heavy bar of bogus
gold, told Bailey that it was the remain
der Of the plunder, and gave it to him in
consideration of 81, 200 in money. As he
was crossing to Oakland in a ferry boat,
with the bar in a bag, three men seized
it and threw it overheard, having been
hired to do so by the robbers as a
means Of hiding the trick. The three
men were arrested, and the story is
here given as sworn to in court.

A Struggle With an Eagle.

Mr.. John +. Carpenter, station agent
at Ashton, was out duck hunting near
here recently, when he saw II very large
bird lying over the trce-tops, about
two hundred yards high. He fired,
and brought it down. He ran to
pick it up, and found it lying on its
back, alive, and with bill and talons
open, ready for a fight. Mr.. Carpen-
ter attempted to take it by tho feet;
but the bird fastened its claws into his
hands, and he was imprisoned by a
wounded black American eagle. There
was II severe tussle for q few minutes;
but the men conquered, though his
hands were very badly scratched in the
fight. The eagles wings were injured,
but is thought they are not broken, and
that it will live.-Providence journal.
