A PROCLAMATION.
It has pleased Almighty God to prolong oar
national life another year, defending us with
His guardian care against unfriendly designs
from abroad, and vouchsafing to us in His
mercy many and signal victories over the
enemy, who is of our own household. It has
also pleased our Heavenly Father to favor as
well onr citizens in their homes a3 our
soldiers in their camps, and our sailors on the
rivers and seas, with unus ual health. He has
largely augmented our free population by
emancipation and by immigration, while He
has opened to us new sources of wealth,
and has crowned the labor of our workingmen
in every department of industry with abun
dant rewards. Moreover, He has bqpn pleased
to animate and inspire our minds aud hearts
with fortitude, courage, and resolution suffi
cient for the great trial of civil war into which
we have been brought by our adherence as a
ration to the cause of freedom and humanity,
and to afTord to us reasonable hopes of an
ultimate aud happy deliverance from all our
dargers and afflictions.
Now, therefore, I, Abraham Lincoln, Presi
dent of the United States, do hereby appoint
and set apart the last Thursday of November
next as a day which I desire to be observed
by all my fellow-citi/ens, wherever they may
be, as a day of thanksgiving and praise to
Almighty God, the beneficent Creator and Ru
ler of the Universe. And 1 do further recorn
mend to my ftllow-cittaens aforesaid, that, on
that occasion, they do reverently humble them
ble tbemstlves in the dust, and from thence
off. r up penitent and fervent prayers and sup
plications to the Great Disposer o! events for
a jetum of the inestimable blessings of peace,
union, and harmony throughout the land which
it has pleased Him to assign as a dwelling-place
fcr c urselves and for our posterity throughout
all generations.
In testimony whereof, 1 have hereunto set
my hand and caused the seal of the United
?>ta!es to be affixed.

She reports that an unusual quietude exists
at the front. There has been but little picket
firing or cannonading along onr lines for sev

occasionally open a lively cannonade upon
our troops who are at work strengthening the

On the north side of the James there has been
no active military operations for some time

throwing a few shells daily at our working
parties on the canal, the work of which is
progressing favorably.
