GIVE THANKS ON HIGH.

The United States this year have
just had officially appointed new day
of thanksgiving for the high mercies
vouchsafed us by Almighty God, who
in his divine wisdom has led our fleets
and army to glorious victory and I'M
scathed triumph over the enemy in
this war.
Therefore the Register earnestly
urges that every minister Of the Cos
pei next Sunday offer up prayers of
devout thanksgiving for the unpre-
cedented successes that have followed
the operations of our arms on land
and sea, in accordance with the procla-
nation of the President, and to mingle
with these thanks for His watchful
care of the nation prayers for the flu
ture welfare and safety of our gallant
soldiers and sailors.
