partment OF State to-day:
A PROCLAMATION.
II has long been the piOus custom OF our
people with the closing OF the year 10 look
back on the blessings brought TO them in
the changing course Of the seasons, and to
return solemn thanks TO the All-Giving
source from whom they flow, and, although
at this period, when the fallen leaf admon-
ishcs us that the time OF our sacred duty Is
Mt hand. our nation still lies in the shadow
of the great bereavement and mourning
which has filled our hearts, and still finds
It's sorrowful expression toward the God
before whom we but lately bowed In grief
and supplication. Yet the countless benc-
fits which have showcred on us during the
mast twelve months call for our feryent
gratitude and make ii fitting that we should
rejoice with thanks for what the Lord in
his infinite mercy has most signally IA
yored our country and our people. Peace
without and prosperity within have been
youchsaRed to us. No pestience has visited
our shores. The abundant privileges OF the
freedom which our fathers lett us in their
wisdom are still our increasing herit-
ace. Some affections have visited our
brethren in their forest homes. Yet
and i'm a manner sanctificd, by the gene
rous compassion for the sufferers which
has been called forth throughout our land.
For all these things it is meet that the
voice of the nation should so up to God I'D
devout homage. Therefore, ], Chester y.
Arthur, President Of the United states, do
recommend that all people observe Thurs
day the oath day of November as a day OF
national thanksgiving and prayer by ceas-
ing. so far as they may, from their secular
labors, and meeting in their several places
for worship, there to join in ascrlblng
honor and praise TO Almighty God, whose
goodness has been so manifest in our his
tory and in our lives, and Offering earnest
PRAYER that His bounties may continue TO
us and our children.
In witness whereof 1 have hercumto
set nv hand and caused TIE seal OF the
United States to he affixed. Done at the
city of Washington this the 4th day OF NO,
vcmber in the year OF our Lord 1881, and
OF the Independence Of the United states

THE RELIC on THE ROCKS.

The lustrous moon through the wntcrly night
Glldcs with the statcllest pomp Of n qucon,
over nlmy cloudlets Of poarly white,
And cold calm sea Of transccndcnt sheen;
The CLEAN Of hcr robe Is reflected there,
And lights up her path like the merm0id's hair.
Sheds over the trcmulous, sleeping sea
vision Of beauty and purc delight,
And softens with nngers Of fantastic
The grim gray clin 5 inaccessible height,
TN the soul Is lost ln a dreamy mist,
And all scemeth lovely the moon hath kissed
hut something hlde3 In the rift o. the rock,
Near yawning cavern's omlnous gloom.
Which the shlmmerlng moonbeams dare not mock
With their llghtsomo touch, for II tells Of DOOM
In It's silence filling the air with sound
And the whlrl Of tempest Is all around,
a something Wit, ribs ana broken back,
skeleton ribs that arc gaunt and grim,
ly Ing alone In the shadow so black,
wreck nevcrmore to be taut and trim;
Nevcrinore answer to breeze or TO blast,

Lying there rotting, be night and by day,
