Thanksgiving Day Appointed.
The following proclamation was issued by
the President to-day:
At no recurrence of the season which the
devout habit of a religious people has made
the occasion for giving thanks to Almighty
God and humbly invoked his continued favor,
has the material prosperity enjoyed by our
whole country been more conspicuous, more
manifold or more universal than during the
past year; also an unbroken peace with all
foreign nations, general prevalence of domes-
tic tranquility, supremacy and security of the
great institutions of civil and religious free
dom have gladened the hearts of our people,
and confirmed their attachment to their gov
eminent, which wisdom and courage our
ancestors SO fifty framed, and the wisdom and
courage their descendants so firmly main
tanned to be the habitation of liberty and
justice to successive generations.
Now therefore, |, Rutherford Is. Hayes,
President of the United States, do appoint
Thursday, the 9th day of November as a
day of national thanksgiving and prayer, and
earnestly recommend that, Withdrawing
themselves from secular cares and labors
the people of the United States do meet to-
gether on that day in their respective places
of worship, there to give thanks and praise
to Almighty God for His mercies, and to de-
voutly beseech their continuance.
In witness whereof have hereunto
SEAL set my hand and caused the seal Of
49, the United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington, this third
day of November, in the year of our Lord
one thousand eight hundred and seventy
nine, and of the independence of the Uni
ted States one hundred and fourth.
BY the President,
RUTHERFORD Ii. HAYES.

Gen. Sherman's Annual Report.

Gen. Sherman's annual report was COM
pleted to-day. 1t is prefaced with the usual
tabular statements and returns compiled by
the Adjutant General. He gives figures to
show that only 20, 10 men of the army are
available for actual service, and recommends
that Congress be urged to solegislate that the
%. 900 men provided by law be allowing ex-
clusively for regiments of the line. He de-
votes large portion of the report to the Ute
troubles. He says these Indians are of the
worst class and occupy the toughest part of
the country, and relates the causes of the re-
cent outbreaks. He pays tribute to Thorn
burghs character. The various orders and
and correspondence between ThOrnburgh and
Meeker are quoted, and Sherman says both
acted right, and the crimes committed rest
wholly on the Indians. 1t is Sherman's con-
viction that very soon the progress of events
will make it absolutely necessary to move all
the Indians now on the upper Missouri to the
Sioux reservation, and open up for actual
settlers all land in the region north and west
of that reservation. The report closes with
various recommendations looking to the i'm
provement of the service.

In this neighborhood blowing
and corn planting is the order
of the day; a few have finished
planting corn and are now bed
ding up cotton land. Millet and
oats have been extensively
sown; beautiful green patches
can now be seen in the fields.
Farmers are not, as a general
thing, planting more Irish pota-
toes than they will need for
home consumption. The opin-
ion is it does not pay to raise
potatoes for sale. A large crop
of sweet potatoes will be plant
ed.
Times are hard and economy
is the fashion. 1t has been DEM
onstrated that rope is cheaper
than leather, and in this settle
ment it is no uncommon thing
to see a gentleman riding a fine
horse with a rope attached to
the bride bits for reins, while
some reverse this order and have
rope headstalls and leather reins,
but the prevailing fashion is rope
for reins and leather for head
stalls. Young men go to church
on Sundays with the above de-
scribed rigging" on their horses
and they also go accounting in
the same way. Other neighbour
hoods are requested to make a
note of this.

PRISONER KILLED AT BELL
VILE On Friday evening to-
wards dusk sheriff Lewis accom-
panied by deputy Sutton enter
ed the jail for the purpose of
putting the prisoners in their
cells. lust as Mr.. Lewis enter
ed the door, he was attacked by
three prisoners from the west
who are charged with cattle
stealing; two of them grabbed
Lewis, throwing him on the
floor, and taking away his re-
volver, while the third covered
Sutton with it. Mr.. Hannah
hearing the noise, went over to
the jail, arriving just in time to
wrest the pistol from the man
who was about to shoot him.
Lewis, in the meantime, had
managed to release himself
and then drawing another
pistol which he had on
his person, shot one of the men
named Farrell, the ball taking
effect just below the. stomach.
Farrell lived only about half an
hour. The local prisoners stood
back taking no part in the at
tempt to escape and they are
said to have protested against
the attempt.

The world is crazy for show.
There is perhaps not one in a
thousand who dares fall back
on his real, simple self for power
to carry him through the world
and exact enjoyment as he goes
along, there is no end to the
apeing, mimicry, the false airs,
and the superficial arts. 1t re-
auires rare courage, we admit,
to live up to ones enlightened
convictions at these days. Un-
less you consent to join the
general cheat, there is no room
for you among the great mob Of
pretenders. Ifa man desires to
live within his means, and is res
olute in his purpose not to ap-
pear more than he really is let
him be applauded. There is
something fresh and invigorat-
ing in such an example, and we
would honor and uphold such a
man with all the energy in our
power. A true man or woman
is not afraid to weara faded gar
ment or an questionable hat ;
it is true moral courage.
