The recurrence of that season at which it is the
habit OF our people to make devout and public
fession Of their constant dependence upon the Di-
vine favor tor all good gifts of lite and happiness and
OF public peace and prosperity, exhibits, in the
cord OF the year, abundant reasons for gratitude
and thanksgiving Exuberant harvests, productive
mines. ample crops and staples of trade and manu-
faclures have enriched the country. Ths resources
thus furnished TO our revivng Industry and expand
ing commerce are fastening the DAY when discords
and disresses through the length and breadth of the
land will. under the continued favor Of Providence

broken, domestic tranquility has prevailed and tue
institutions of liberty and Justice which the wisdom
and virtue OF our fathers established. remain The
glory and defence OF their children, The general
prevalence OF the blessings OF health through our
wide land has made more conspicuous the suforings
and SORROWS which the dark shaIow of pestilence
has cast upon portion of people. This heavy
afiction even the Divine Ruler has tempered to the
suffering communities in the universal aid and sue
which have flowed to their reef, and the w ole
nation may rejoice in the unity of spirit in our peo.
pie, by which they cheerfully share one another's
burdens.
Now, therefore, I, Rutherford B. HAYES, President
OF the United States, do appoint Thursday, The

A Man With a Joke.

Almost any body would have known, from
the sly look that lurked in his right eye and
the hardly suppressed smile that convulsed the
surface of his nose that he carried q concealed
joke beneath his otherwise calm exterior.
There were four men and boy lowering around
the grocery stove, within easy reach of the
cracker barrel as he entered the store and re-
marked:
did you hear that little story about Rug
gles?'
"No- what was it?'' chorused the four men
and the boy.
pretty good thing" chuckled the man with
the joke. "only. if let it out, don't say any
thing about it, cause Ruggles an me are good
friends you know an he might not like it."
"Fire ahead, I" said fat man with q cane;
''guess we're all num-"
The other three murmure1 their approval of
the fat mans supposition, while the boy seized
the opportunity, when general attention was
for moment distracted, to feoniously possess
himself of two cupfals of raisins-possibly for q
wedding cake.
"You see,' began the man with the j1ke;
looking carefully around, and lowering his
voice. "Ruggles was goih' home last night from
. party at the south-end, with young lady on
bis arm. 1t was pretty dark, clong bout
twelve oclock) an Just as they got along BY
the Baptist church, Ruggles saw somethin' in
the road that looked like cat"
"Ha! hs?' interrupted the fat man, with
premonition OF what was coming; ''go on--go
on, be continued anxiously. The man with
the joke carefully bit off chew of tobacco, and
resumed, while the boy incidentally slipped an
egg into the fat mans coat-tail pocket, which
hung down over the chair:
"The animal was settin' kinder still and
quiet like, an Rus giles. feelin' pretty smart,
said to the young lady, Just see me raise that
the animal q kick that nearly stove its bull
warks in. Well, sir
"Ha! ha! ha-ha-haP' roared the fat man,
humping his cane vociferously, while the
other three men rubbed their hands, and
laughed and haw-hawed and gave vent to every
exhibition of delight; 81 see-l see-turned
out to be aha! ha! to be a-hol hoi oh,
somebody cut me open-to be q skuuki On!
hoi ho-3-o!'
"Oh, no; you're mistaken" said the man
tobacco to his pocket.
"Eht' exclaimed the fat man, relaxing the
grin; wasn't skunk? What was 1t thenY'
sit WAS Cat, just as he thought IL was"
softly replied the man with the joke, medita-
lively eyeing the stove.
"Onl how smsrt!" snorted the fat man after
an awful silence, rising up and glaripg at the
man with the joke. awful smart,
amt we! l should think we'd fall down
| and cut ourselves!'' and he went out of the
store, pounding the floor savagely with his
cane, and not noticing. in his wrath, that the
egg, which the boy had deposited in his pocket,
had broken. and was trickliDg from his gar
ments like the struggling ends of an October
sunset.
Toe man with the joke smiled gently, and
ruminatingly worried his nouthful OF plug to-
bAcco, while the Toy dexterously arranged Q

| fat man had vacated -Rockland Courier.

THE Mobile Register is shrewd enough to
see that the freedom of the ballot box in the
South is matter which "touches the con-
science and heart of the populous and busy
North" and furthermore says: -"Congress
and the State legislatures, especially those Of
the South, must at once convince the people
that impartial suffrage will be protected" )"
The process of convincing must begin right
off. 1880 will be too late.

FRANK confession by the Bratteboro Re-
former: Samuel ]. Tllden, in our eyes, has
long been the ideal Of what is best and most

hard to believe that such man would en-
gage in an effort to bribe returning boards,
even to secure right. So we have waited
until all the evidence is in, hoping that some
part of 1t might fairly be construed so as to
exonerate him. But now we must give it
up; unless there are yet unexpected develop

SOUTH CAROLINA has done some tall yot-

1870. They now give 15,4n Democratic ma
