Thanksgiving.

We are somewhat OF the opinion in fer
sntaly expressed by the Governor OF
West Virginia in his proclamation, (which
we reproduce this morning) that 1t is
hardly worth while to make much OF a
spread on the subject Of Thanksgiving.
The public are presumed TO know the oh.
iect II not the origin Of the day. 1t is a
sort Of Christmas day-a day Of good
cheer-a harvest home day-and had its
origin among the children Of Israel in the
'Feast Of Ingathering"-a feast that
crowned the labors and blessings Of the
year, after all the crops had
been gathered and garnered. The
PuritanS OF New England, who fol.
lowed the Old Testament usages
much more closely than those Of the New,
instituted the same Mosaic feast when
they long ago established the Thanksgiy-
ing day in their land. They were oppoS.
ed to Christmas, regarding it as Popish
day, and took their Christmas on Thanks
giving. Having cut their corn and second
crop Of hay, and gathered their beans and
pumpkins, the Puritan fathers felt called
upon to emulate the example Of the chosen
people and go up into their temples and
give thanks. This is how we came to have
Thanksgiving day in this country.
Gradually the custom has spread vest
ward and southwestward, keeping pace as
it were with other Yankee ideas and in.
noyations, until in at least two thirds OF
the country the people now observe q
Thanksgiving day, and of late years the
day recommended by the President has
been the day observed in all the States.
Our Southern fellow citizens have not
fully natura!ized the custom among them,
but they arc gradually yielding their
prejudices on the subject and falling into
line. No Governor Of Virginia until the
days of Governor Peirpoint proclaimed a
Thanksgiving day. Henry A. Wise did
not even have as much respect for
the custom as the New Amster-
dam Dutch had for their Connecticut
neighbors, upon whom, according to Ir.
vim, they looked "with great respect and
abhorrence." Wise spit in New England
Governors face once, and he mentally
spit on every thing that originated in
that part OF the country. He was ter
rible old bigot and heather. The only
excuse for him was that he was born and
brought up on the Eastern shore of Vir-
sinia, where las he once thanked God) not
single newspaper was printed, and
where perhaps a common school was
never known in his younger days.
Tho custom Of an annual Thanksgiving
is certainly one that reflects credit upon
the country. Even the Romans and Gre
clans went into their temples and thanked
the Gods for both local and national bless
ings, "Grahtude is religion said a great
man, aud people who have no feelings
OF ofgratitude towards 'the Power that has
made aud preserved them natton," and
bestowed on them such an in6nity Of
blessings as the people Of this country
have enjoyed, are certainly the Veriest
heAthens In the history OF mankind.
