THANKSGIVING DAY.

To-day has been set apart by the President
as day of national thanksgiving to Almighty
God for the blessings that have been vouch-
safed the American people during the past
yesr, and an appropriate observance Of 1t has
by Gov. Nichols.
Every year since the war Thanksgiving
Day has been, regularly appointed by the
President and observed throughout the North
as an occasion of great rejoicing and with
universal expressions of popular gratitude.
But during these twelve years with us Of the
South the day has rather been one of humilia-
ton and prayer than of rejoicing and ex-
ultation. During this weary time the
refrain that has welled up from the Southern
heart has not been o gaudeamas, but that
saddest and most tragic chorus of the "a
pictis. Through these years we have been
mute. even as those who sat down by the
waters of Babylon and wept when they re-
membered Zion; our harps were changed
upon the willows" and when "they that ear
ried us away captive required of us song,
and they that wasted us required of us mirth, y
we could not respond, For how could we
sing the Lords song in u strange land p
But this year we have to celebrate our de-
liverance. For the first time in twelve long
years have we been appointed day OF
thanksgiving by a Governor of our own
choosing. Heretofore it has been but a
mockery to call upon people for rejoicing
whose hearts were full of supplication, and
whose heads were bowed in humiliation and
sorrow under strokes from the good Gods
hand; who cried out with one accord, "Oh,
Lord why hast Thou forsaken me2'' and
who kept their faith only through remem-
brance that "whom the Lord loveth he chas-
teneth." To-day, though, all is changed at
length, and from happy and enfranchised
people will go up songs of Joy and gratitude,
while we bend in reverential prayer to the
Giyer of all good

How to get rid Of the tramps will soon be
nm important question for Louisiana to solve.
They are coming down South, all the papers
Coll us, three hundred thousand strong. The
mild fall has kept the main army North yet
awhile. but wait until the winter has come in
earnest and then indeed shall we see these
Aordes marching down upon us. Already, as
Il is, there are thousands of tramps in this
State, particularly at Shreveport, Morgan
City and Donaldsonyille. What shall we do
with them In Donaldsonville 1t was pro-
posed to lock them up. and some OF them
were actually captured and Gagged. It was
true. the money for their support had to be
taken from the pockets of the people, but
then, 10 was said the tramps were public
birds of prey, and made their living, whether
In or out Of prison, out of the community.
The Donaldsonville tramps seemed to be of
the worst variety an so filthy and vile that
they even disgusted the negro inmates Of the
prison. A round robin, signed by all the
other prisoners, was sent to the Mayor of the
town. asking him to relieve them from this
terrible company. The Mayor granted the
request the tramps were brought before him
and discharged and warned to leave the town
In two days.
The only objection to this "moye on policy
In dealing with the tramp question Is that it
lis altogether Intellectual. The town of Dom
jacksonville orders the tramps to "move on
and they leave for Morgan City; that latter
place orders its tramps away and they 60 to
Donaldsonville. A tramp is always on the
wing; he does not care to locate himself in
any place more than few days, SO that an
order like this is wholly superfluous. The
action OF the Donaldsonville Mayor Is no solu-
tion OF the tramp nuisance: 1t has been tried
elsewhere and everywhere 1t has failed. We
will have to discover some more effective
mode Of dealing with these nuisances, or we
will have some thousands OF them settled on

Athens was aroused ore morning by the
discovery that the Hermes, sacred statues
scattered all over that city, had been defaced
by some one. Chattanooga has just been
somewhat excited over similar occurrence.
The other night the monument dedicated to
the Confederate dead of that place was badly
defaced and mutilated by some human ghouls.
The Republican paper Of the town declares
that the deed was done by strangers, and
that the motive which prompted 1t was per-
sonal vengeance and hatred against the dead
Confederate soldiers, However that be, the
man who committed the offense was evident
ly person Of little sense and foresight, as
he could have gratified his vengeance
much more effectually by defacing the
monument to the Federal dead. This would
have relighted the fires of Radical hate, and re-
newed old war feelings and animosities in all
their ancient bitterness. The Radical press
could then have dished up once more their
twice told tales of Confederate outrages on
Federal soldiers dead and alive, and taught
| the people of the country that in the South sc
| bitter was the feeling engendered by the war
that not only living Republicans but dead
Union soldiers were prescribed, were out
ragged and insulted.
The people Of Chattanooga, however al
though aroused and indignant at this outrage
have shown their good sense in not going into
a violent passion over it. An investigation
of the occurrence is being made, and the
malefactors will doubtless be captured and
punished. In the meanwhile, there is none o.
that excitement, that passion, that wild, sec
tional, bloody-shirt denunciation Of every
body else, to which we should have beer
treated, had this outrage taken place in the
| North.

Senator Sharon is believed to be an earnest
md ardent Republican, but he Is at the same
time millionaire, and his two loves, Repub-
iicanism and money, frequently come in con-
Aict. During the past week, when called on
30 decide between the supremacy of his party
in the Senate and the pleasures of stock job
hing in San Francisco. he decided unhesita-
tingly in favor Of the latter, and refused to
leave California under any consideration. He
has on hand, he says, several important tran
sactions, the sale of his waterworks to the
city OF San Francisco for So, 0OO, 900 and ggan-
tic operations in Bonanza stock. He is also
Ralston's successor, and has large amount
of business relating to the California Bank to
attend to. He is certain, therefore, he told
the reporter of San Francisco paper, that he
cannot be in Washington before January, and
probably not even then. If the Republicans
do not like this he is willing to resign,
and let the Governor of Nevada appoint
a Democrat in his place. This threat
has had the effect of silencing the
Republican press, and they are now some
what more careful in the manner in which
they attack this independent millionaire, who
places his own private business above that OF
the nation.
The New York Herald declares that this
promise of resignation is no threat after all.
sharon has all along been disposed to resign.
He has been in the Senate nominally for two
years, though practically, and as matter OF

supervision now more than ever. The i'm
probability of his being able to devote, during
the next few years, even that small amount OF
time he now gives to the consideration OF ma
tional affairs makes him DESTROYS of retiring,
temporarily, at least, from politics. This, the
Herald says, he has written to Thomas Wren.

that the two years he has spent in the

well take the place In our Libraries of his
tory OF crime.
Mr.. Lawrence receiver of the American
Popular Life Insurance Company has just fur

pective history. The American Popular Com
pany began business In 1866 with a capital OF
100000. The whole capital was invested
In bonds This left the company nothing

rowod from q bank and ON this paltry sum
business was begun. The principal business
seems to haveb been tedeclare dividends, with
out regard to the fact whether money had
been made or lost during the year. The
first dividend was per cent. the nominal
profit being made by crediting all pre-
miums, whether received or not, to loss and
profit; by leaving no credit 10 any account for
the protection of policy holders, and by max
ing no allowance for outstanding bills.
The plan of declaring dividends was kept
slp TO the death. The report shows that the bal
ances OF the company had been increased by
9A51, $50; fictitious entries made to the extent
Of $500, 499, and $47. a99 fraudulently paid out
The company will pay, as may readily be
believed, very small per cent of its La

dividends, and its liabilities always amounted

to argue a case, was reminded Of an Incl
dent which occurred about twenty-five years
ago, when Senator Edward Everett and NJ.
de Sartiges. the French Minister, resided in
adjacent houses on G street. One evening,
as the guests invited by NJ. de Sartiges to
dinner arrived. Mr.. Stephens came in eve

having invited the representative from
Georgia, asked him il he desired to con-
verse with him. "No, thank you :" repned
Dir. Stephens. M. de Sartiges went to his
dining-room, told his butler not to announce
dinner until that little gentleman in the par
lor had gone. After waiting quarter OF an
