National Thanks giving Proclamation.

The following proclamation, setting apart
Thursday, Nov. %, as day of Thanksgiving,
has been issued:
By the President Of the United States,
A PROCLAMATION
The recurrence of that season at which it is
the habit of our people to make devout and
public niession of their constant dependence
upon the divine favor for all the good gifts OF
life and happiness, and the public peace and
prosperity, exhibits, in the record Of the year,
abundant reasons for our gratitude and thanks
giving. Exuberant harvests, productive mines,
ample crops Of staples, of trade and manufac-
lures, have enriched the country. The re-
sources thus furnished to our reviving indus
try and expanding commerce are Fastening the
day when discord 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 as sured prosper
ity Peace with all nations has remained I'M
broken, domestic tranquility has prevailed
and the institutions of liberty and Justice,
which the wisdom and virtue of our fathers
established, remain the glory and defense Of
their children. The general prevalence Of the
| blessings of health through our wide land has
| made more conspicuous the sutferings and sor-
rows which the dark shadow Of pestilence has
cast upon portion OF our people. This heavy
affection even the Divine Ruler has tempered
To tu6 buutTlub III bilo Universal
| sympathy and succor which have 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 burden.
Now, therefore, L, Rutherford b. Hayes,
President of the United States, do appoint
Thursday, the 2Sth day OF November next,
as day OF national thanksgiving and
prayer and l earnestly recommend that,
Withdrawing themselves from secular cares and
| lahore the neoule of the United States do meet
together on that day in their respective places
Of worship there to give thanks and praise tC
Almighty God for his mercies and to devoutly
beseech their continuance
In witness whereof, have hereunto set m,
hand and caused the seal Of the United State
to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington, this 30tl
day of October, in the year Of our Lord 1878
and of the independence Of the United Statei

Truly an enormous loss Yet II sinks into in
significance when compared with the rayAges
Of that more terrible scourge, Consumption,
which annually sweeps hundreds OF thousands
OF humsn souls into eternity. The causes of
consumption are various, depending in every
instance for the development OF the disease
upon the se-ofulous diathezis or temperament,
OF the victim. Thus the same cause which will
produce in ore person an attack Of acute dis
ease or a slight nervous pros,ration, will en-
gender consumption in person Of scrofulous
habit That consumption can be cured by
proper treatment will be readily perceived
when the exact natute of the disease Is under
stood, viz: the accumulation and deposition Of
scrofulous matter Ctubercles) In the lungs. Oh
viously the principal remedies required are a.
a powerful Alternative, or blood purifier, to
arrest the accommodations and also cleanse the
blood of the scrofuluus matter, and ~ mild
cathartic to expel the diseased matter from the
system. This course of treatment in conjunc
ton with a strict hygienic regime, has proved
| the most successful method o. curing this dis
ease. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
and Pleasant Purgative Pellets are the best
Alternative and cathartic remedies before the
| public, and have alone been used in Thousands
OF cases OF consumption with the most marked
efficacy. DR.. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, at Buff
falo, n. Y, affords special and unequaled ad
vantages to consumptives, not only possessing
the best medical and hygienic means Of treat
ment, but having the essential advantage o
being situated in a climate where the inhabi
tants are notably free from this disease.

They are as large as hand-bills, and some of them as fantastic in device The Green. back Labor ticket, with Buffers name at the head, had a good sized picture, containing the seal of Massachusetts, with a laboring man on one side, 8 soldier on the other, and an eagle over. head. The back of this ticket is in imitation of greenback note, with part of the platform of the party on it. The straight Democratic, with Alb. bott's name, has Faneul Hall, the maid of industry on one side. and on the other, in blue ground, heads of Washington, Jackson and Mcclellan The Republican ticket is pink, striped with red on one side, and bearing cuts of shields on which are the words !"

4 large hrigafng Ditch.

An Anaheim dispatch dated Novem- Der F, says the completion of great ditch was celebrated yesterday by a grand picnic and barbecue. About one thousand farmers of this vicinity were present with their families, and their great joy felt at the successful completion of the public work found vent in day of enthusiastic jollIty and merry-msking. The literary ex- ercises comprised history of the ditch by Wm. NJ. McFadden, an oratlon by s. NJ. White and addresses by Thomas Lyuill, NJ. L. Wicks and B. David-the latter speaking in Spanish. The ditch is twenty.two miles in length and cost over $40,00O It will irrigate 17,OO0 acres of land in and about AnaheIm thus insuring to the latter place a great future. This whole section is now en- tirely independent of rainfall, because the land not reached by the waters of the ditch just completed, is pierced with artesian wells, which spout forth great volumes of water. There are nat ural reservoirs along the line of the ditch capable of storing 20,0O0,OOO gallons of water, and these reservoirs will be utilized in the near future.

The Poor Indian.

The San Francisco Chronicle has the following on the ready lamentable condition of the poor Indian in the north. Arizona doesn't breed that kind of stock.
 LOi the poor Indian. When he goes home 10 his cherished wigwam III the evening he has no dime novel with which to while away the weary hours no friend next door to come in and talk politics; no medical almanacs to read no papers with full proceedings of the racy Vanderbilt will case; no money in safe for masked robbers to break in and eal-no civilized pleas ures of this kind. He simply hangs up the bloody scalps he has captured during the day, beats his squaw with club, wraps buffalo robe around hIm and lies down to pleasant dreams. If paletace comes within half a mile of his wigwam, the slumbering red man snuffs him afar, awakes, and goes out and shoots him full of arrows. And when he sighs for a change, he goes back 10 the Government reservation and lays in supply of ammunition and blankets for the fall campaign.
