WV IL hOCLAMAIlON
ALBANY, Nov. %. The following proclama-
ton has been issued by the Governor:
Thomas A. Hendricks, Vice-president of the United
States, formerly Governor and senator of the great
State of Indiana, distinguished as a pure patriot. and
for many years one of the foremost statesmen of our
country, is dead. The sudden closing of a life so hon
orable and illustrious, in the full vigor of manhood,
and when just entering upon the discharge of the new
duties to which the Nation had called him. causes
great sadness to the people of the State of New York,
and deserves appropriate and sorrowful recognition,
Now. therefore, it is hereby directed, as a mark of re-
gard for the distinguished dead, that the flags upon
the Capitol and upon all the public buildings of the
State, including the armories and arsenals of the
National Guard. be displayed at half-mast until and
including the day of the funeral, and the citizens of
the State are requested to unite in appropriate tokens
of resrect. DAVID B.. HILL, Governor.

AT UGUST ME.
AUGUSTA. Nov. 29.-At a meeting Of the mem
bers of the Sacred Heart Church, tonight. the
following resolutions were adopted:
Resolved, That we are profoundly grieved at the
death of Vice-president Hendricks, who was one of
the ablest defenders of civil and religious liberty that
this country has ever produced.
Resolved, That as a friend and defender of liberty
and free government, he never was surpassed in the
history of our country.
Resolved, That we mourn with the Nation in this
great public loss, and that we deeply sympathize with
Mrs. Hendricks in her irreparable calamity in this
sudden and unexpected death of her beloved and il
lustrious husband, whose memory will never die to
those who love civil and religious liberty and repub-
lican government as exemplifed in these United
States.

party in Indiana position that he won and retained
by virtue of mis- distinguished abilities and large grasp
of public affairs.
His genius was the heritage of the Nation, and his
commanding figure in the politics of the country was
q pride and Joy to the State of his adoption. He died
the second officer of the greatest and grandest govern
ment on the globe, and his life is an illustration of the
possibilities Of American citizenship. From a poor
farmers son he grew and kept pace with his expand
ing country until his fame was not confined by geo.
graphic metes and bounds.
In public life he was sincere, high-minded and far
seeing; in private walks he was dsgnifed, pure and
sweet-tempered. During his earthly career of sixty
six years and his public life of forty years, not even
the imputation of dishonor nor hint of dishonesty was
ever laid at his door. He lived a clean, pure, exalted
life and died full of years and crowned with honors.
The urbanity of his social life. the devotion of his do
nestle relations and the fidelity of his political afilia-
tons were unassailable and unassailed.
A great man has gone hence. A bright light has
been extinguisi9d from the shores of time. Nations
heart is mufied with a deep sorrow, and pulsates a
sad requiem at the tomb of him who is no more. The
last sad Office of devotion, and love, and national
grief is to consign his ashes to the tomb, and it is for
the living to emulate his virtues and profit by his
example. j. 0. HENDERSON,
