THANKSGIVING Day.

The following proclamation was issued by
President Hayes on the Sd inst:
AT no recurrence of the season which the
devout habits of religious people has made
the occasion for giving thanks to the AL
mighty God and humbly invoking his con-
tinued favor, has the material prosperity
enjoyed by our whole country been more
conspicuous, more manifold or more uni
versal. During the year, also, unbroken
peace with all foreign nations, the general
prevalence of domestic tranquility, the SUI
premacy and security of the great institu-
tons of civil and religious freedom have
gladdened the hearts of our people and con-
hrmed their attachment to their govern
ment, which the wisdom and courage of our
ancestors go fifty framed and the wisdom
and courage of their descendants so firmly
maintained to be the habitation of liberty
and justice to successive generations.
Now therefore, |, Rutherford B. Hayes,
president of the United States, do appoint
Thursday, the 9th day Of November, in
slant, as day of national thanksgiving and
prayer and | earnestly recommend that,
withdrawing themselves from Sc cular cares
and labors, the people of the United States
do meet together on that day in their respect
i've places OF worship, there to give thanks
to Almighty God for his. mercies, and to
devoutly beseech their continuance.
In witness whereof, [ have hereunto set
my hand and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington, this Sd
day of November, in the year of our Lord,
one thousand eight hundred and seventy
nine, and of the independence of the United
States the one hundred and fourth.

VIM. NJ. EVARTS, Secretary of State.

No public man at Washington gave
more famous dinner parties than Senator
Chandler. He was the most liberal of
hosts, and set the best table in the CAPT.
tai OF the republic. Laughter was ire
sistible when he told story. Mr.. Lin
coin himself probably did not excel him
in this gift of anecdote. In Detroit his
reputation as an entertainer and "good
fellow " is inordinately large. He owned
there an immense farm in which he took
pride, and on which during the summer
months he lived, although his fine yacht
claimed much Of his leisure. Yachting,
indeed, was his favorite outdoor sport.

GEN. MCDOWELL, who was a class

that the latter was considered at that

mander as to get the sOubriqustof Fight

Gen. Hooker says that the general was

Norfolk is the first peanut in the
world. The peanut indivjdualizsd is a

the ragged and wistful aud small boy,
but where it origin ates it is gigantic

The Swiss government carries on a
great coaching business, but at serious
loss. In 1876 it owned 1898 convey
ances, estimated at about 100000, and
the total net loss in this branch of the
public service was over $4,000. The
number OF passengers conveyed was l.
329, 3O3, of whom 278,S84 travelled on
what are known as Alpine and tourist
routes. A notion of the great increase
IN Swiss travelling of late years may be
formed from the fact that the passengers
forwarded by post in 1852 are given at
go lO4, in which figures travellers by
rail are not included. Great economies
have resulted in diminished loss to the
department in the past two years, the
falling off of Swiss travel notwithstand-
ing. The depression in England tells
heavily on Switzerland.

warns the people against emigrating to
join a colony at place called Alping,

fraud in the purchase of lands, besides
finding themselves in a place remote
from large settlements, and without ad-

The Deadly Fire Damp.

The little mining hamlet called Mill
Creek, situated about fifteen miles from
Scranton, Pa, was thrown into mourning on
the Sd inst, by one of those direful calami-
ties which it seems mining communities are
fated to endure periodically. Upon that
day five men-William Kinney, Zach.
Thomas, George Forcey, Daniel Rupp and
David Jenkins-desceRded into a mine be-
longing to the Delaware and Hudson Canal
company, and half an hour afterward an
explosion occurred which resulted fatally to
the entire party. Their scorched and man
gled remains were recovered soon after the
disaster. 1T is supposed that one of the
victims precipitated the explosion by carry
ing naked lamp.
