At the Water Department Office the
bills for water rent for 1880 are not
ready, aud already a Eumber of fore
handed persons have paid their water
tax for 1850. The rents for 1879 have

Thanksgiving PROCLAMATION.

WASHINGTON Nov. 3.-The following prc-
clamation was issued by the President to-day:
PROCLAMATION.
At the recurrence of the season which the
devout habits of religious people have made
the occasion for giving thanks to Almighty
God, and humbly invoking his continued favor
for the material prosperity enjoyed by our
whole country, but more conspicuous, more
manifest or more universal during the past
year; also unbroken peace with all foreign ma
lions, the general prevalence of domestic tran
guilty, the supremacy and security of the great
institutions of civil and religious freedom,
have gladdened the hearts of our people, and
confirmed their attachment to their govern
mont. which the wisdom and courage of our
ancestors so fifty framed, and the wisdom and
courage of their descendants have so firmly
maintained to be the habitation of liberty
and justice to successive generations;
Now therefore, I, Rutherford B. HAYES,
President of the United States, do appoint
Thursday, the 9th day of November inst, az a
day of national thanksgiving and prayer, and
| earnestly recommend the withdrawing of them
| selves from secular cares and labors, and that
! the people of the United States do meet togeth-
er on that day in their respective places of
worship, there to give thanks and praise to Al
mighty God for his mercies, and devoutly be-
| seech their continuance.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set nv
hand and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed. Done at the CITY IF
Washington, this Sd day of November, in the
year of our Lord one thonsaud eight hun.
dred and seventy-nine, and of the independ-
and fourth.

A SINGULAR CASE.
Man Hanged for Murder While the Real
Criminal is Sent to Prison for THIRTY

II Nan Hanged for Metrde, While the Real
Criminal is Sent to Prison for Ihi9ta,
Years.
Charles W. Cook, tho youth whose evil
dence procured the conviction and execution
of Joseph B. Buzzell, as accessory to the
murder of Susan Hanson, at Broohfeld, N.
e., has himself been sentenced to thirty
years imprisonment as principal in the
crime. Buzzell, who was a man of some
property and of respectable family, had been
on intimate terms with Miss Hanson, but had
changed his mind and abandoned her. Miss
Hanson determined upon suit for breach of
promise of marriage, and while sitting in her
house, on the nigh t before the day on which
the proceedings we're to have been instituted.
she was shot dead by some unseen person.
Buzzel was indicted for the murder, and
tried and acquitted. Two Boston detectives
then took up the case, and succeeded in
frightening Charles W.. Cook, a youth
who worked for Buzzell, into a confess
sion that he had done the shooting at the
instigation of his employer. Upon this state
ment Buzzeu was again arrested, indicted,
convicted as an accessory, and sentenced to
be hanged. After the conviction Cook re-
tracted his testimony, and subsequently re-
tracted his retraction. Serious charges were
likewise made against the Boston detectives,
and one of them is now serving term for an
offence perpetrated in Massachusetts,. It
was also urged that Buzzell had, in fact, been
convicted of crime of which he had pre-
viously been acquitted. Buzzell himself
never made denial of having been con-
cerned in the murder, and perhaps Cook s
original confession was substantially true,
and Buzzeu planned the deed, but was not
present when Cook shot the woman. Not
wlthstanding all the efforts N his behalf.
Buzzell was hanged, and now the actual
murderer goes to State prison virtually fol-

A Counterfeit Shower.

Yesterday afternoon w. L. Anderson had
a cash customer who didn't prove paying
ono after all. He came into Anderson's
carpet store, overhauled and inspected a lot
OF carpets, curtains, etc. He finally fixed
upon the purchase of some expensive
portable articles, curtains and the like.
Having made his choice the customers had the
goods wrapped up, aud made payment in the
dollar of our dads, or the fractional half and
quarter of that coin. The bill ranged up in
tce neighborhood of 800, and 1879 coin was
offered and taken in payment.
Then the customer departed. Short
ly otter Mr.. Anderson had
occasion to make a deposit in a bank.
Among the funds offered were the coins
just received. They were eyed suspiciously,
and then pronounced counterfeit. hasty
recount followed, which showed the cash
customer had mixed in good with the bad,
bat ouly in numbers enough to
give about SIS worth of the
genuine to $15 worth of the bogus.
The counterfeit coins passed are excellent,
and hard to be detected. They look toler-
ably we'll worn, yet without the Jack lustre
common to bogus money, and they have
ring about them very like the money minted
by the United States. Information of the
transaction has reached Major McIlrath over
at the custom house, and he will undertake
the job of ferreting out the operative.
