A "Thank''full Paragraph.

As 1t is Thanksgiving Day it is the
day to give thanks. We should be
thankful that we are spared to return
thanks. Thanklessly though we have
received the many untold blessings
from the Ruler Of all, we are assured
by custom that the time for thanks has
come, and we should be indeed un-
thankful did we fail In our duty. 1t IL
not enough that we feel grateful; we
should express that gratitude, and that
Is giving thanks. No one deserves
thanks for giving thanks, since that is
his duty. And no thanks are due US
for pointing out this fact, as every one
should know 1t. Then let us all give
thanks that we are thankful, for in
being thankful we have something to
be thankful for. And let our motto be:
Small (and large) favors thankfully re-
ceived. Thanking the reader for his
patience in thus far perusing this
thankful effusion, we close by observ-
ing that no thanks therefor are due

Pesth, Nov. 29.-Last night while
Tisza, the Hungarian prime miuister,
was entertaining Count Andrassy and
the members of delegations, bomb
was exploded in the alley between the
Frotress theater and the minister's
pa ace. Examination of the fragments
showed that the bomb had been charged
with dynamite. The windows of the
palace were shattered, but nobody was
hurt. No clue to the perpetrators of
the outrage. There is great excite
ment.
