A Waysfde Courtesy.

I was once walking a short distance
behind handsomely-dressed young
lady, and thinking, as looked at her
beautiful clothes, "I wonder if she takes
as much pains with her heart as she
does with her body" An old man was
coming up the walk with a loaded wheel
barrow, and before he reached us he
made TWO attempts to enter the yard OF
q small house; but the gate WAS heavy
and would swing back before he could
get through. "Wait," said the young
girl. springiDg lightly forward, ell
hold the gate open." And she held the
gate open until he passed in, and re-
ceived his thanks with pleasant smile as
she went on. "She deserves to have
beautiful clothes," thought; for a
beautiful spirit dwells in her breast -

Thanksgiving Day.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.-The President
has issued the following:
By the President of the United States
Proclamation!
The recurrence of that season at which
1T is the habit of our people to make de.
Vout and public confession of their con-
stant dependence upon Divine favor for
all good gifts of life and happiness, and
OF public peace and prosperity, exhibits
IN the record of the year abundant rea.
sons for our gratitude and thanksgiving.
Exuberant harvests, productive mines,
ample crops of the staples of trade, and
manufactures have enriched the country.
The resources thus furnished to our re-
'v1vlng industry and expanding COM
rnerce are fastening the day when dis
cords and distresses through the length
and breadth of the land will, under the
continued favor of Providence. have
given way to confidence and energy and
= assured prosperity. Peace with all ma.
tlons has remained unbroken; domestic
tranquility has prevailed, and the insti-
tutlons of liberty and justice which the
wisdom and virtue of our fathers estab-
lished, remain the glory and defence of
their children. General prevalence of
the blessings of health through our wide
land has made conspicuous the suferings
and sorrows which the dark shadow of
pestilence has cast upon portion of our
people. This heavy affiction even the
Divine Ruler has tempered to suffering
communities, in the universal aid and
succor which has flowed to their relief.
and the whole nation may rejoice in the
unity of spirit in our people by which
they cheerfully share one another's
burdens. Now, therefore, I, Rutherford
B. Hayes, President of the United States.
DO appoint Thursday, the 28th of Novem-
Der next, as day of National thanks
giving and prayer, and 1 earnestly rec
ommend that, Withdrawing themselves
from secular cares and labors, the people
OF the United States do meet together
oon that day in their respective places of
worship, there to give thanks and praise
to Almighty God for His naeroies end
to devoutly beseech their continuance.
In witness whereof I have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed Done at
the city of Washington on this 3Oth day
of October, in the year of our Lord one
thousand eight hundred and seventy
eight, and of the independence of the
United States the one hundred and
third.

The MAN who has given himself to his
country, loves it better; the man who has
fought for his friend, honors him more;
the man who has labored for his commu-
nifty values more highly the interests he
has sought to conserve; the man who has
wrought and planned and endured for
the accomplishment of Gods plan in the
world, sees the greateness Of it, the de
