The vote was the largest yet polled at a lo cal election. —Chicago Tribune. • Origin of Thanksgiving Day. The New York Tunes, and some of the Philadelphia papers,have expressed their dis appointment of a Thanksgiving day. They think a day of fasting and prayer would be more appropriate, as though iu the present distress we had nothing to be thankful for.— To those who think thus, the following histo ry of the origin of Thanksgiving Day may prove instructive : When New England was first planted, the settlers met with many difficulties and hard ships, as is necessarily the case when a civiliz ed people attempt to establish themselves in i wilderness country. Being piously dispos ed, they sought relief from Heaven, by lay ing tLeir wai ts and distresses before the Lord in frequent set da>s of fasting and pray er. Constant meditation, and discourse on the subject of their difficulties kept their minds gloomy and discontented, and, like the children of Israel, there were many disposed to return to the land which persecution had determined them to abandon. At length, when it was proposed in the as sembly to proclaim another fast, a farmer, of plain sense r« se, and remarked that the in conveniences they suffered, and concerning which they hud so often wearied Heaven with their complaints, were not so great as might have been expected, and were dimin ishing every day as the colony strengthened ; that the earth began to reward their labors, and to furnish liberally for their sustenance ; that the seas and livers were full of fish, the air sweet, the climate wholesome ; above all, they were in the full enjoyment of liberty, civil and religious. lie therefore thought, that reflecting and conversing on these sub jects would be more comfortable, as tending to make them more contended with their sit uation ; and that it would be more becoming the gratitude they o w ed to the Divine Being, if, instead of a fas! they should proclaim a thanksgiving. His advice was taken ; and. from that day to this, they have in every year observed circumstances of public happiness sufficient to furnish employment lor a thanks giving day. Detroit, Nov. 3 Effect of the Money Panic upon Marriages. One or two of our cotemporaries, alarmed at the brief list of marriages advertised in its columns, cries out that the pauic has quench ed the marrying ardor. Postponed it, it has, t ut we believe that the institution of mar riage is a great gainer by the hard times.— Good, sharp, careful wives were never in such demand before. Tidy, saving housekeepers were uever so appreciated belore. Solacing, tender companions were never so sighed after. The consciences of men and their tastes have always been rightabout but the terrible expensive outfit of a woman in society, and the ridiculously absurd no tions of many men, have doubtless detained whole flocks of angelic Peris outside the gate, and made batchelors of hundreds of men who desrved a better fate. But the hard times have clipped llie wings of many who were soaring far too high for then' availability, and brought within bounds many’ whom their worshipers despaired of circum venting. The marriageable damsels, shorten ed sail from necessity, make a much more presentable appearance in the ofling, and the pilots came alongside with a better grace and spirit. Some who meant to marry dread ed to undertake, lest the cost of the wedding swamp them. Now ‘‘fashionable” weddings are out of fashion ; 1 ving couples will go up to church rationally, and tiie set-out at home will be tasteful, plain and brief. The absurd custom of showering upon the bride untold lots of dry goods, jewelry and the like will be held vulgar, and a hint that she is in need of alms. We predict the panic will not result j in the .ailure of a single sensible couple to ; meet their engagements There may he, and | are suspensions, and extensions of little notes, but the firm will go on—the marriage will come olf in the spring if not in the winter, and by that time ail parties will be likely to start with more temperate notions of “the ap- i pearai.ccs” they are to keep up, and a truer I American idea ot what a domestic establish ment should be. A new and most welcome era has been inaugurated with the hard times. We shall hear less from young men about their inability to “support a wife,” and women who cannot help support the family, i rather than he reckoned part of its dead weight, will blush to own it, unless armed with the physician’s certificate of dilapidated health. Tiif. Oak. —To the oak is assigned the chief rank among the trees of the forest.— This majestic tree claims preeminence for the grandeur of its appearance, its great du rability, and its consequent extensive utility to man, especially for building purposes If we except the cedar, it is perhaps the longest-lived of the vegetable creation, at taining to the age of UuO, and even 1,000 years. Thus generation after generation is swept from the face of the earth, dynasty subverts dynasty, nations spring up, flourish, and decay, whilst the monarchs of the woods oidding defiance to the fury of the storm, an 1 biavmg the attacks of time, outlives cen tury upon century an unshaken monument of enduring might. Us applicability to the requirements of the shipwright constitutes the oak one of the most important products of the country; for it is to her navy that England is indebted for her most sure ami formidab'e defence. Our ships stationed around the island, forming at every vulnera ble point an impenetrable bulwark, are em phatic ll v termed “The wooden walls of Eng land .”— Spanns. Terrible if True.— The Wakulla (Flori da) Times of the 14th inst., says that a gen tleman residing at Attapulgus, Ga., recently received a large sum of money. He was soon afterwards obliged to leave home on busiuess, and on the evening of his depart ure two negroes came to the house and de manded of his wife to be shown where the money was, under penalty of death. She complied, and they then demanded some sup per, which the lady furnished them, puttiug, however, a quantity of strychnine into their coffee. In a few minutes they were both dead, when it was ascertained that they were white men, and rear neighbors, in disguise, who had been aware of her husband haviug received the money as bel re stated. Some genius who remembers tho words of Pope : “The proper study of mankind Is woman,” says that she may be known by her petticoat. A black petticoat indicates low spirits and a taste for books and quietude. A white pet ticoat proclaims the unsullied miud—an even temper and an attachment for romance. The red petticoat belongs to a termagant, and is always found on strong minded females—wo men who cut their toc-naiis with their hus band’iyftjtojfSp'and gills who talk back to their off to balls by jumping out of bacK windows into the arms of butcher boys. Young men before making their choice, will taka ob»arv*tion* accordingly, Domestic Economy. The following from the Sunday Couriei-, is very characteristic of the times here, in St. Paul. A DRAMATIC SCENE IN ONE ACT. Mr. and Mrs. Wiggins at Breakfast. Mrs. W.—My dear I do hope the times are getting better. Mr. W.—Betting the Excuse me, my dear, but I beg you won’t say anything about the times ; it will take away my appe tite aud spoil the breakfast. Mrs. W.—O !I am so sorry. But I [Hesitating.] Mr. W.—But wbat, Mrs. Wiggins? (Lays down his muffin, and looks at her seri ously.] Mrs. \\. —l just thought I would make a proposal to retrench our expenses, if the times were no better. Mr. \V Now that sounds like sense.— My dear, you make ine feci light-hearted, for to tell you the truth it is the very tiling I wanted to propose to you ; but I didn’t know bow to do it. You women have such a way. The fact is, my dear, we must retrench, aud no mistake about it. [Wiggins swallows his Muffin whole, and empties his coffee cup at a gulp, with im mense satisfaction in his countenance.] Mrs. W.—l knew you would not object to my plan. Mr. W.—Object! catch me objecting to anything you propose, my love. Mrs. W.—Well, my dear, I can save you fifty dollars in one article alone. Mr. W.—Good. Mrs. W.—And, if you can save fifty in something else, we shall be just a hundred dollars richer. Mr. W—My love, you ought to go into W all street. But how do you propose say ing this sum ? Mr. W—Well, you know, I must have a new dress this week, and instead of paying for it a hundred arid fifty dollars, I propose to take advantage of the times and buy one that will cost but a hundred. [Mr. W. tries to speak, but failing in the at tempt rushes from the house without even kissing Mrs. W„ as he had always done be fore.] Mrs. W—Well, if I ever ! What strange creatures these men arc! What on earth can have happened to Edgar ? Curtain drops. Gov. Walker and the Administration. The dispatch from Washington stating that the Administra ion had determined to re move Gov. Walker, in consequence of his proclamation nullifyi. g the fraud in Oxford precint, was very promptly contradicted, but there seems to have been considerable ground for the first statement. The Washington cor respondent of theN. Y. Times, who profess es t > be fully posted, says that the Cabinet has been divided upon the subject, Secreta ries Cobh and Thompson taking ground a gainst Walker, and the former demanding his removal. The writer endeavors to make cap :: d for Mr. Buchanan out of the alleged fact that he did not yield to Southern pressure, but wc are compelled to think that the iner it ot his resistance was at best of a negative character. Walker may or may not have ac ted in conformity with his instructions ; but even if he had gone directly counter to them, no administration, though it were twice as strong and brave as we believe Mr. Buchan an’s to be, would dare to remove a Governor for so eminently just and proper an act as the repudiation of the Oxford fraud. It would have been an act of parly suicide—not, it is proper to say, because the Democratic party has improved in moral tone since Gov. Shan non's time, when far greater rascalities were greeted with the applauding shouts of all its organs, but because the immense Republican vote for Fremont taught the party a salutary lesson. It is entirely safe to assume, there fore, that Gov. Walker will not be removed, either on account of his Oxford proclamation or of his subsequent one in relation to the Democratic fraud in McGee Couuty—at least those acts will not he assigned by the Ad ministration as the reasons for his removal. But while Gov. Walker is probably safe in this direction, he has yet to run the gauntlet of the Senate on the ratification of his ap pointment to office, and we are informed that his rejection by that body is probable unless he should be sustained by Republican mem bers. This on dit we are inclined to credit, as being in entire harmony witli the past course of Democratic Senators upon the Kansas question. From first to last, they have done everything they could do to sustain the ruf fian usurpation, and if they should vote to retain Walker in office, their course will not be dictated by any sympathy with him in his efforts to crush Democratic frauds, but by the consideration that nothing can now be gained by his rejection. At all events, we trust that Republican Senators will notallow themselves to be mixed up in the matter.— Neither they nor their constituents had any agency in the selection of Govenor Walker, and if his own party choose to reject him, let them take the consequences. Miscellaneous Item*. The following sentiment was given at a re cent railroad festival held in Clevc and, Ohio : '•Our Mothers —the only faithful tenders who never in splaccil a switch." It is said that an ingenious Down East Yankee has invented a machine by which a man can tell when he has become sufficiently drunk. lie calls it a fuddleometer, and it op erates by giving a fellow a sharp punch in the ribs the moment he has got bricks enough iu his hat. 'l’lie Albany Knickerbocker gives the follow ing recipe to destroy flies : Take a boarding house pic, cut it into thin slices, and lay it where the flies can have free access to it. In less than five minutes the whole boodle of them will be dead with colic. A Rhode Island clergyman lately illustra ted the necessity of corporeal punishment for the correction of juvenile depravity, with the remark that “the child, when once started in a course of evil conduct, was I kc a locomo tive on the wrong track. It takes the switch to get it off.” A wag in New York, standing at the cor ner of Olive and Cherry streets, opposite to one of the Catskil! ice carts drew a piece of chalk from his pocket, and marked the letter M before the word ice, which, of course, made it read thus . “Cats kill mice.” A landlord having the misfortune to admit as a lodger into his house an individual named Bell, of questionable reputation, turned him out the other day, remarking that he would not keep a bell lu his house that wanted hanging. There’s nothing perfect in this world.— Doubted. There's your Grst baby and the perfect tense. A lady, on separating from her husband, changed her religion ; being determined, she said, to avoid his company in this world, and the next, too. There is a lady in Boston who is habitual ly so 6leepy that her curiosity cannot be awakened. “Come, get up—you’ve been in bed long enough,” as the gardner said, when he was pulling up carrots to send to market. An Irishman writing from Philadelphia, the other day, to bis friend in the old coun trv, concluded a letter thus: “If iver its me forchttne to live till I die—and God nose whether it is or no—l’ll visit old ould Ireland afore I leave Philamadelfy.” “Burk e says, “the shallowest understanding, the rudest hand, is more than equal to the task of pulling down and destroying. Folly and rage can dilapidate more in half an hour, than wisdom, deliberation and forccat can build in many years.” A wealthy printer has been discovered in India. The British Zoological Society are making preparations to catch him. Grken and Flourishing. —A pleasant writer in the Congreyationalist says: “God grant that the spring time which re-leaves tbe tiees, may also relieve the merchants—and make both elms and men again green and flourishing!” A Lover’* Tragedy The quiet little city of Ilallowell was agi tated, on Monday of last week, by a tragedy of uncommon interest. Mr. Ryaut of Farm ington had been paying his addresses to a young lady who worked in the factory at Ilallowell. She had declined receiving any further attention from him, and had reques ted that her letters should be returned to her* On Monday, Ryant visited the factory, called the young lady out, and proceeded with her to her boarding house, where an interview took place. On leaving the room, Ryan re quested her to pass out ahead of him, which s' e did, uud immediately heard the snap ol u percussion cap. Looking round, she observ er* a pistol in Ryan’s hand, directed at her.— rS.ie immediately rushed towa ds hun for the purpose of seizing it, when he turned it to «ar is himself and fired, lie inuncdiateli fi.il dead, having received two balls in his head. The escape of the young lady’ is a remark able oue. Ryant had provided himself with a double-barreled pistol, and, as he supposed, liaa loaded both barrels with ball; but, in stead of that, he put both balls into one bar rel, and the barrel he fired at the young lady was the one that did not contain any ball.

CATHCART A CO.,Third St., St. Paul. F. GILMAN. The liver invigorator.—pre pared BY Da. SANFORD—Is a great scientific medical discovery, and is daily working cures, almost too great to believe. It cures as if by inagic, even the lirst dose giving benefit, and seldom mure than one bot tle is required to cure any kind of Liver Complaint, from the worst Jaundice or Dyspepsia to a common headache, all of which arc the result of a diseased Liver. The Liver is oue of the principal regulators of the human body, and when it— performs its functions well the powers of the systemp* are fully developed. The stomach is almost entirely dependant on the healthy action ot the Liver for the proper performance of its functions when the stom-t* acii is at fault, the bowels are at fault, an 1 the whole" system suffers in conse quence of one organ—the Liver having ceased to do its duty. Korthediseas-35 es of that organ, one of the proprietors has made his study in a practice of more than twenty to find some remedy where with to counteract many derangements to which it is liable. To prove that this remedy is at last found, any person troubled " - with Liver complaint in any of its forms has but toe* try a bottle, and convic tion is certain. A com- pound has been formed by dissolving gums and ex- trading that part which is soluble for the active vir-" - tues of the medicine. These gums remove all morbid or bad matter from the sys tem, supplying in place a healthy flow of bile Invigorating the stomach—and causing food to digest well, purifying the blood, giving tone and health to the whole machinery, re-s> moving the causes of the disease, and effecting a ra-_ dicol cure without any of the disagreeable effects felt - by using Calomel or mine ral poison that is usually resorted to. One dose after eating is sufficient to re- r lieve the stomach, and pre vent the food from and souring. Only one dose taken before retiring vents night-mare. Only one dose taken at night loosens - ” the bowels gently, and cures costiveness. One£* dose taken after each meal will cure dyspepsia. One_ d.se of two teaspoonfuls wlllalwaysrelieve the sick"* head-ache. One bottleta ken for female obstruc-pc* tlons removes the cause of the disease. Only one dose— immediately relieves chol ic, while one dose often re-' t * peated is a sure cure for cholera morbus, and a pre--< ventive of cholera. One .lose taken often; w ill pre- vent the recurrence of bil lious attacks, while it re- lieves all paiuful feelings. Only one bottle is needed to throw out of the system the effects of medicine after a long sickness. Oue bottle ta ken for jaundice. removes all yellowishness or unnatural color from thtskin. One dose taken a short time before eating gives vigor to tiie appetite and makes the food di gest well. One dose, often repeated, cures Chronic Diar rhoea in its worst forms, while Summer ami bowel com plaints yield almost to the first dose. One or two doses cures aitaeks caused by worms, while for worms in chil dren, there is no surer, safer, or speedier remedy in tbe world, as it never fails. There is no exaggeration in these statements ; they are plain, sober facts, that we can give evidence to prove, while all who use it are giv ing their unanimous testimony in its favor. We take pleasure in recommendingthis medicine as a preventive for Fever and Ague, Chill Fevers, and all fevers of a bil ious type. It operates with certainty, and thousands are willing to testify to its wonderful virtues. Among the hundreds of Liver Remedies now-offered tothe public there are none we can so fully recommehd as Dr San fords Invigorator, so generally known now throughout the Union. This preparation is truly a Life Invigorator producing the most happy results on all who use it Al most innumerable certificates have been given of the great virtue of this medicine by those of the highest standing in society, and we know it to be the best prepa ration now before the public.— Hudson Countu Dam.
