THE PRESIDENTS THANKSGIV-
ING PROCLAMATION.

WASHINGTON, November 1.-The
President this afternoon issued the
following proclamation Constant
thanksgiving and gratitude are due
from the American people to Almighty
God for His goodness and mercy
which have followed since the day
He made them a nation and vouch-
safed to them a free government.
With loving kindness He has con-
stantly led us in the way Of prosperity
and greatness He has not visited
with swift punishment or shortcomings,
but with gracious care He has warned
us of our dependence upon His for
bearance, and has taught us that obe-
dience to His holy law is the price of
a continuance of His precious gifts
In acknowledgements of all that God
has done for us as nation, and to the
end that on appointed day the united
prayers and praise of a great country
may reach throne of grace, [, Grover
Cleveland, President of the United
States, do hereby designate and set

giving and prayer, to be kept and
observed throughout the land. On
that day let all our people suspend
their ordinary work and occupations,
and in their accustomed places of
worship, with prayer and songs Of
praise, render thanks to God for all
His mercies, for the abundant harvests
which have regarded the term Of the
husbandman during the year that has
passed, and for the rich rewards that
have followed the labors of our people
in their shops, and their marts of trade
and traffic. Let us give thanks for
peace aud for social order and content

GOOD WOMEN.

The highest words of praise that
can be spoken OF a woman is to Say
OF her that she is IA good woman"
The women who win the admiration,
respect and love Of all are the good
women Of the world. We admire
women TO whom nature has given the
great gift of beauty; the bright eyes.
glowing cheeks, perfect features. and
graceful movements Of a beautiful
woman charm US, but the charm is
not lasting unless the beautiful
woman is also good woman. Only
good women win our perfect faith. our

THE GIRLS THAT ARE WANTED

The girls that are wanted are good
girls
Good from the heart to the lips:
Pure as the lily is white and pure,
From its heart to it's sweet leaf tips.
The girls that are wanted are home
Girls that are mothers right hand,
That fathers and brothers can trust to,
And the little ones understand.
Girls that are fair on the hearthstone,
And pleasant when nobody sees;
Kind and sweet to their own folks,
Ready and anxious to please.
The girls that are wanted are wise girls,
That know what to do and to say;
That drive with a smile and soft word
The wrath of the household away.
The girls that are wanted are girls of
sense,
Whom fashion can never deceive;
Who can follow whatever is pretty,
And dare what is silly to leave.
The girls that are wanted are careful
girls,
Who count what n thing will cost,
Who use with a prudent, generous hand,
But see that nothing is lost.
The girls that are wanted are girls with
hearts;
They are wanted for mothers and
wives;
Wanted to cradle in loving arms
The strongest and frailest lives.

OYSTERINT IN UNLAWFUL
OYSTER GROUNDS.

MIDDLETON, Hyde County. There
are along Our coast from Parch Corn
| Bay, PinkletOn Rock, to Gull Rock,
seven vessels from Virginia, are oyster
ing in unlawful oyster grounds, so
says reliable captain of a boat who
plies regularly between Hyde, New
Berne and Washington. These oyster
men, says our informant. are armed
and defiant, some Of them heavily
armed; and say they can keep at bay
20 men, others say they will have
oysters or be killed. This looks like
lawlessness. These vessels make
about a trip week and carry about
Z 200 bushels per week. One Of them
represents himself as catching oysters
for man in Elizabeth City, which is
false, they all GO to Virginia and are
intended for Virginia men. Now
what can be done. Put guard at
the mouth Of Albemarle & Chesapeake
Canal and at the Dismal Swamp
Canal. Any law the County Com
mlSSlOnerS could make would be in
efectual, as while one boats crew
were undergoing trial others would
be pillaging, as they have already
made their boast that they could well
afford to pay S25 for four or five hun
lred bushels of oysters. The people
here are Very much insensed over the
outrage and appeal to the Governor
to redress this wrong and bring the
offenders to justice speedily.-''G" " in

No guarantee is needed by those who
patronized this school during the past
year for it's thorough work and rigid

and think for himself-at laying solid,
substantial for higher education, and
fitting its students for the practical
duties of life. Only limited number

pupil may be under the immediate care
of the Principal.
Reports will be sent out monthly, as
usual. bringing the standing of each

Cultivators of early potatoes fre

Of land should be devoted to a corn

ordinary manner and store it under
shelter.
Wells should be ventilated, as the
water is thereby kept fresh and free
from bad odor. The absorption OF
air by water renders it pleasant to the
taste and purifes it to some extent;
but the effect is not very marked
one.
Contagious and malignant footrot
occurs in sheep and is consequence
of neglected ordinary foot-rOt The
purulent matter gathers under the
horn and burrows in the vascular
parts of the foot until it reaches the
bones, which become liberated. In
time the foot is so much diseased and
destroyed that it drops off, leaving
the stump of the limb bare, when the
sheep hide and die miserably
No other bedding will prevent the
manuring accumulation from adhering
to the hair of domestic animals to
effectually as clean sand. A peck of
fine sand will readily absorb and
retain half peck of liquid manure
Then there is another important con-
sideration in favor of sand, namely,
the facility with which manurial accu-
mutations Of any stable may be
handled and stored without loss.

lives, and it is far better to establish

though that habit has no special bear

ADVERTISING PAYS.

An observing paper says town is
generally measured by tue advertise

press. The stranger who wishes to
change his residence is not very apt

he scans the columns of the different
