AN ENGINEERS STORY.
I had spent the night in a stage, a day .
n the saddle, a night in the sleeping
?ear^half a day doing business, half a [
day in bed, and was, after supper, en- :
joying a cigar and a newspaper, in the
reading-room of the Redwood house, J
Fayette, Ind. The newspaper was nn- .
interesting, or else I was rather sleepy 1
?and I jiness it was a little of both?so
that I so >n neglected it, to watah the r
fantastic o <rling of the smoke from my jj
fine flavored cigar. I didn't feel muoh
like talking, aud felt still less liko read- .
ing; bnt I did feel as if I would like
"-exceedingly well to hear a good story. n
I had barely come to this conclusion, 0
and commenced wishing for some one of Z
. my acquaintances to amui-e me till the
time was up for the train which was to /
take me to Indianapolis, when I recog
nized, in the person who sat next to me. *
a fellow-traveler in the sleepiDg-car of ^
ijjlhd night before. .
H?, too, had laid aside his paper, and
.fcaa apparently, like me, watching the ?
smoke of his cigar, and wishing for absent
friends to keep him company.
He was a very agreeable-looking little ?
man, with a clear, gray eye, light hair, .
sandy whiskers and smiling mouth. Indeed,
he had so much the appearance oi
the man that I would like t<> hear tell a ?
story, that I thought Dame Fortune had t
smiled upon me, when be recognized me .
with a genial: " How d'ye do, stranger ?" ,,
I returned his salutation, and asked
him some common-place questions about f
how he had enjoyed the ride we had to- ?
getfcer. . "
He said something in reply about the .
. running being too fast for the poor lf
track; and from this the conversation 6
ran upon fast traveling in general for
> some time. At last I remarked, that F
sixty miles an hour was the most speedy a
traveling that I had ever done. Where- v
upon my friend informed me, with a t
pleas?nt but knowing smile, that he had
traveled considerably faster than that,
foot, faster than he had ever tS&gMp
of, besides. Of course I was '
SHjktous to know where, how, and when ?
nHpid done it; and, after the modest

Sf$0Hr'toad was generally looked upon as
rt the most substantial in the na- J
nobody seemed to have any fears ,
^that it would fail to survive the general .
ft^nach-up. But yet I did not fully share /
general conQdence. Wages were
^iiw;diown ; arrearages collected ; and a B
gftfreswmany other little matters seemed *
S|fc> itidicate to me that the road had got c
HttttCier deeper water than was agreea- '.
mam around. Among other things,
IKfflt master mechanic had cold me In tbe "
that the company hau ordered 8
-:four first-qnolity Tautoh engines for tbe
---fali^ia^senger business. The road was
ib the very best condition, and oth<
t er preparations were made, to cut down
* the time and y ut trains tbmugh quicker
. than was ever known before, when tbe
; new engines should aome. Well, there
^;was but one of the engines came.
_., 44I said tbere was but one engine came;
_ but she was, in my opinion, altogether
' 'the best ever turned out of the Tanuton
'* ^wrks; and that is saying as much as
7 can "be said in praise of any engine.
She was put in my charge immediately,
jwjth the understanding that she was

Of the shop, and J[ was to take a special

carry up the president and several of 8
the other officers of the road, to meet ?
' some officers of another* road, which
crossed ours there, and arrange some j j
important business with them.
^ "I had no trouble at all making my :s
forty miles an hour going out. The en- 1
grlno handled herself most beautifully. 1 *
v We were just holding up at Y , when ;*
*-* Aldricb, tbe treasurer, who had come ! ]
out on the platform to put the brake on, I'
" -slipped and fell. As we were yet nndt>r
?oad headway, ho was very much in- ;
jnred, afci was carried off to the hotel i1
insensible
" According to the president's instruc-1*
tions, I switched off my train, turned my j!
r'.eneine, and stood ready to start back to j J
C?? at a moment's notice.
" Aldrich's presence was of so much i'
.importance that the business eon Id not .
be transacted without him; so all those [
I had brought out except the president 1
and Aldrich. *^ent back to 0 on tbe ;
three o'clock express train. This was c
"the last regular train which was to pass
o\or the road until the next Monday.
il Early in the evening I left the ma- I
chine in chargo of my fireman aDd went f
over to an eating house to see it I could
; not spend the time moro pleasantly c
than on my engine. The hours dragged
themselves sway slowly. I was piaymg 8
dominoes with the station"
"^igeut, when in came Roberta, the presi- a
dent, in a state of great excitement'.
- 4tt Hurry,' said he to ma, ' I want you
-to put me down in 0 at twelve
o'clock.'
" As it was nearly eleven o'clook then, d
and the distance was seventy-five milee, n
c\ I thought he was joking at first; but y
; when we got outside the door he caught a
me by the arm and hurried me along so 1
fa fit that I eaw he was in .earnest. t<
"'Harry,'said he,'if you don't set tl
tne down in C by twelve o'clook, I 0
* atn a rained man. and this road is a q
rn:ned-rt>ad. Aldrich is dead ; but he
/toi'i me, 'before he died, that he had
/. trifcarizzled, from time to time, flvehundi^tLihoTiRon
A of onr money; and his b
?to start with it, on the twelve to
o'clock boat from 0 for Canada, t'
If we don't have th-t money on Monday n
morning, to make some payments with, t
the road goes into other hand*; and if n
. you put me down in 0?- at the right o
tin.n, so that I save the money, yon e
?
hall have five thousand dolL< > ?. Unlerstand
it, Harry? Five thousand
lollars!' u
' Of course, I understood it I saw
iow tLe reason why the wages had been
ut down ; I understood it all, and my
lood boiled. I felt that I would save *
he road if I lived, and told Roberts so. *

OCC biltkt JUU UV IV, unnj uw
lied, as he climbed up on to the steps ^
i the coach which was coupled to my ^
ngino. v
" I sprang up into the foot-board, got ?
he switch-tender to help my fireman, ?
ipened the throttle, and just as she a
ommenced moving, looked at my watch v
-it was just eleven o'clock, so that I r
tad one hour to make my seventy-five 8
niles in. ' ?
"From T to C there were 11
ew curves on the road ; but there were 8
everal heavy grades. I was perfectly .
cquainted with every rod of it; so that "
knew exactly what I had to encounter; j!
nd when I saw how the engine moved,
felt very little fea*of the result. .
" The road for the first five miles, was
.n air-line, and so flew along with scarce- '
v a perceptible jar. I was so busy^ ^
osting myself lip, as to the amount 01
rood and water aboard, etc., that we ^
lanced by the first station almost before >
was aware of it, having been five minites
out, and having five miles accom- ^
ilished.
"'You are losing time!' yelled a *
oioe from the cor.oh. I looked around,
nd there stood Roberts with his watch . |
a his hand.
"I knew very well we would have to ?
aerease our speed by eome meaDS, if
?e carried out our plans of reaching C?
y midnight, and looked anxiously
ronnd to see what I oould do to aocom- '
ilish that purpose. 8he was blowing tj
ff eteam fiercely at one hundred and Q
en pounds ; so I tnrned down the valve
r> two hundre.1, for I knew we should
eed it all to make some of the heavy a
Tades -which lay between us and C . ^
" It was three miles to the next sta- jj
ion. With the exception of a few curves f(
he track was as good as the last, jj
is we darted around what commonly
eemed to be a rather long curve, at the
tation, but which was, at our high 8
peed, short enough, I looked at my t
ratch; and we had done it in two minutes 0
,nd a half. j,
"'Gaining,' I shouted back to Ro- 0
erts, who -was yet standing on the plat- ^
orm of the coach. t
" ' Look out for the heavy grades,' he 0
eplied, and went, inside the car. v c
" The next Rix miles rose gradually ^
roro a level the first, to ten and a half p
eet grade the last, -which lay between
is and the next station. My fireman j.
cept her full; and now she began to get ^
tot. The furnace door was red, and the {team
raided continually; so that she c
rept her speed, aDd passed the station, j,
ike a streak of liphj, in five minutes. c
" Now came nine miles like the last; tt
>ver which she kept pace with her time, 0
nd parsed the station in seven and a a
lalf minutes. t
" Here, for ten miles, we had a twenty- v
oot grade to enconnter; but the worst f<
f it all was, at that place we would be v
bliged to stop for wood. I was just ^
oing to speak to Roberts about it, when g
looked around, and saw him filling the n
snder from the coach with wood which f
ad been placed there before starting, a
rhile be was gone after me. (
"I believe we would have made this t
an miles at the same speed as before; ?
ut, through the carelessness of the fireiau,
the fountain-valve, on the left- p
and side of the engine, got opened. w
Dd the water rose in the boiler so fast 0
r to run the steam down to one hun- j]
red ponnds before I discovered where t,
be difficulty lay.
"At first, Roberts didn't appear to jy
otice the decrease of speed, and kept a
t work at the wood as if for dear life, g
ut presently he looked up, and seeing 0
latthe speed had decreased, he shouted: ^
' Harry, wo are stopping I" and then, g
oming over to where I was, he said : g
Why, here we have been ten minutes M
n the last ten miles, and I believe we ^
rill come to a dead stand if something w
i not done. The speed is continually \
lacking 1 What is the matter ?' ' A
" I explained the cause. He was ap- ti
>arently satisfied with my explanation, a
nd after having tied down the safety- ^
alve he climbed back over the tender, ^
xhortiner me to ' put her through, for i
Jod's sake, or we are all beggars to- f,
ether ?' jj
f Just then we passed the next sta- c
ion, having taken nine minutes for 8i
ifcht miles. We were now more than 0
alf over the road; but we had lost i]
parly ten minutes' time, and had left '
nly twenty-seven minutes to do thirty- tl
jur miles in. a
" 1 had shut the wa er off from both ^
ly pumps, a little distance back, when j
discovered what was the matter, and y
tie was now now makine: steam finely u
own a slight gi-ade. From less than t]
ne hundred, with which we started 8
ver that ten-mile stretch, she had two e
undred ponnds before we finished it; e
nd, as the gauge indicated no higher 1
bat that and the valve was ti^ down, n
conld not tell how much o/er twc hnn- s
red pounds she carried, but she cer- \
ainly carried none less the rest of the v
ourney. And well might she carry such v,
in enormous head of steam; for, after f(
jassing over that ten miles in eight g
ninutes, there l:iy ten miles of five-feet ji
ip-grade, and fourteen miles of twenty- b
Vet-to-the-mile depression between us I e
tnd C , and it was now eleven o'clock ' v
md forty-seven minutes. I
"JNow tne engine was not in earnesr. 1
[*he furnace door, smoke-arcli and j a
rhironey, all were red; while she seemed j 1
o fly on as if the very evil one himself v
tperflted her machinery.
"Six minutes carried us over that ten j a
niles ; and we darted by the last station . a
hat had lain between us and C . 11
tfow we had fourteen mileR to go ; and ! f
ny time showed eleven o'clock and fifty- j L
hree minutes. 11
" 4 If I live,' said I to myself, ?I will j t
nakeit.' And we plunged down that i e
wenty-foot grade with all the steam on. j p
Persons who saw the train on that wild j u
un, said that it wa3 so soon af'er they ; v
leard the first sound of her approach, I
vben the strange object, whicli looked i I
is if it was a flame of fire, darted by, 1 a
md then the sound of its traveling died s
iway in the distance, that they could 1 o
lardly convince themselves they had ' t1
eally seen anything. It seemed more ' w
ike t he creature of a wild dream than a ; il
lober reality. j s
" And now let me tell you, that no en- ; t!
due ever beat the time we made on ! v
hose fourteen miles. Those great j t'
wheels, seven feet in diameter, spnn I d
?round so swift that you couldn't begin : p
X) count the revolutions. The engine 1<
rarely seemed to touch the track as she a
lew along ; and although the track wns V
is true as it was possible for it to be, 1<
ihe swayed fearfully, and sometimes 8
nade Buch prodigious jolts that it re- n

STORT OF A WRECKED BARK.
mpslced at 8?a and Twenty-two Men
Drowned-Three PerUhlotr Wallora Ucicued
from tbe Wreck.
The following account of a disaster
rhich ocoarred to a whaling vessel from
few Bedford, Mass., rivals the fictions
f the most graphic writers and appeals
ir more strongly to one's sympathies
ban could any imaginary tale of shipwreck
and suffering. The ill-fated veaq1
if. tti'11 ha seen, was caught in a
urricane the clay she left port, and in I
few hours capsized by the force of the i
and and waves and left adrift on the
aging sea. A majority of the crew were
wept overboard at once, and of the relaining
little band cutoff by the incomag
waters only three were saved, after
offering far worse than death. A deliled
account of the finding of the sinkag
bark, the rescue of the three perilling
sailors and their own story of
iieir sufferings is given below.
The pi lot boat Isaac Webb, No. 8,
?ft Sandy Hook, near New York, at
wo r. m. on a recent Monday, and at
?ur o'clock the next morning, when
>rty miles south of Block island,
assed close by a floating wreck, barely
bowing above the surface of the water.
To sign of life was visible, but the yawl
fas got out and pulled close to the bow
f the vessel. By the light of the moon
; could be seen that it was a bark lying
ompletely on her beam ends, with but
small portion of 'her port side above
be water. A man sprang from the
awl on to the wreck and trod upon
'hat he supposed to be a pile of wreck
luff and canvas, but to his astonishlent
and fright the mass rose up with a
ry of alarm. In the palo mooDiigftt tt
ppeared bo much like an apparition
bat the crew of the yawl were for a
loment scared completely out of their
dts.
Recovering themselves they looked
gain and saw not a ghost, but two
uman beings wrapped in canvas reachig
out their hands for help. The poor
allows, when they realized that deverance
was at hand, pointed to the
ide of the vessel beneath their feet and
aid, in brokea Euglish, " One man inide.
The pilotmen put their ears to
he spot indicated and heard the voice
f a human being calling in heartrendag
tones for help. The rescuers had
nly the slippery side of the vessel,
rashed by the sea, to stand upon, and
here were four inches of plank, eight
r ten inches of oak timber and four inhes
of ceiling to be cut through with a
nil axe before they could reach the imirisoned
man.
But the sailors were not disheartened
>y the difficulties of the situation, and,
laving taken the two men to the pilot
>oat, they returned to the wreck* and
ommenced cutting through the oak and
ron fastenings of the vessel's side. They
ould still hear the despairing cry of the
Imost exhausted man. Relieving each
ither at intervals, they continued to cut
nd saw, and after two hours' incessant
oil succeeded in making a hole through
rhich they could speak to the poor
ellow within, who cried out that the
rater was rising and almost strangling
lim. Redoubling their efforts, they
inally made a hole large enough to adait
of the passage of a man, anJ drew
rom the darkness below the swollen
nd almost lifeless body of Henrique
Jancavis. When asked if any others of
be crew still survived, he answered,
' No ; they are all dead."
Taking the sufferer into the yawl the
arty returned to the pilotboat and did
rhat they could to aid the rescued sailrs,
from one of whom, Joseph Reis,
bey obtained the following story of
heir shipwreck:
"Our names are Joseph G. Reis,
lanuel Alvis and Henrique Qancavis,
11 of the Cape de Verde islands. Last
iaturday we shipped on the bark Sarah,
f New Bedford, for a whaling voyage of
tvo years. The crew nnmoerea cwenryve
men all told. We left New Bedford
aturday morning at seven o'clock, the
reather at the time looking very stormy,
'ind northeast, blowing a stiff breeze,
'hich at fonr p. m. increased to a gale.
Pe commenced to take in sail and reef,
.t half-past five we hove to on the port
*ck, the wind blowing a hurricane and
frightful sea running. About two
lours later a tremendous sea struck the
ark and capsized heron her beams ends,
'here were seven of us below in tho
irecastle at the time. The sea rushed
i and filled the forecastle in a moment,
atting off our escape io the deck. We
truggled for life and managed to keep
ur hea'ls above water clinging to fioatig
chests.
' We called to each other and found
hat there were six of us alive?five men
nd one boy. One man, a brother of
Jvis, died a little while after. The boy
ied the next morning. The four of us
et alive clung to the sail tier, with the
ater up to our chins. By prying opf>n i
lie lid of a floating chest we foun'i n
mall bottle of sweet wine and about
ight apples. We ate the apples nud
ach one of as took a drink of the wine.
?he cock was dying. He begged for
lore wine. We gave him another
wallow, and a little while after he died.
Ve pushed his body down under the
rater, as we wanted the spaoe. There
ras only about eighteen inches to two
eet of space between the water and the
ide, and the floating chests and stuff
irumed our heads nud bruised our
lodies dreadfully. We had freBh air
nough through a broken deck light,
/hich occasionally rose above t'ue water.
Jelieving we must die if we remaiued
q this horrible plar?e, wo decided to try
nd find the scutth and reach the deck.
L'he scuttle was about ten feet under
rater from where we were clinging.
"Mauuel tried first, and on the second
ttempt succeeded in reaching tbe open
,ir. This was on Sunduy afternoon. I
ried twi(te, and was almost drowned beore
I could get back again. I had a
lard struggle to get my h?ad through
he floating boxes. I didn't try it again
hat day ; but the next day. Monday, I
nade another attempt, and, after a desperate
struggle, got out and found Maniel
clinging to the upper side of the
essel.
"There was a dead man (Joseph
Jarro) lashed to the rigging. I cut him
drift, as he made me feel bad. Manuel
aid he saw a steamer about eight miles
ff the day before. We pulled some of
be pieces of canvas up to where we
mvn rtlinffitift ortrl ofmnnnil nnr&plrau in 1
fc. Wo called to Henrique, who was i
till in the forecastle, to come out, but I
lie poor fellow couldn't Hwim and !
wouldn't try. We tried to cut through !
lie plank with a knife, but could only j
ig the oakum out of the seams, the j
ilunk was so hard. We kept a good :
aokout for vessels, and only dropped
sleep a little before we were rescued, i
Ve believe all the rest of the crew were
3?t when the bark capsized, and it was j
o sudden and the wind and sea too i
luch for a boat to live, even if one could |

twist the masts out of a ship or capsize

finest weather vigilance cannot be relaxed
a moment. Some years ago two
large ships met in mid-ocean, one heading
for Australia and the other whom
ward bound. The day wau fair, and,
the wind dying away, the vessels were
becalmed close together. The passengers
at onoe busied themselves to write
letters home, and officers and orew became
occupied in the interchange of
courtesies. The placidity of the weather
led to a feeling of careless security
that can never be 6afely indulged in at
sea. All the canvas was set, idly flapping
against the masts, when a terrific
nquall struck both ships, and passed off
in a few moments. When the confusion
and excitement resulting from it were
over, and the crew of one of these vessels
was able to relax the attention demanded
for their own safety, they looked
to see what damage the other vessel had
suffered, but they looked in vain. She
had gone down witn an on ooaru, ana
not a vestige of her was to be seen anywhere
on the wide sea, which looked
serene and beautiful as if nothing had
happened. To be taken aback by a
sudden squall or shift of the wind is one
of the greatest perils that menace a
square ringed sailing ship, especially if
there is a high counter sea running.
The sailB are pressed with such violence
against the masts that they fail to come
down or brace around, while the stern
presents such resistance to the waves
that unless the after-canvas oan be instantly
taken in, to enable the bow to
pay off, the surges boil over the taffrail
acid draw the ship down almost before
the danger can be realized. I was a
witness to a scene of this sort once when
nothing Baved us but the dropping of
the spanker. We climbed up the hoops,
and the sail at last yielded to the sheer
weight that drew it down. An English
frigate was thus taken aback once when
running under press of sail; the officer
of the deck manned the yards with her
numerous crew, and they out the sheets
with their knives in time to keep the
frigate from sinking.
The subject of storms and hurricanes
is a vast one, and many of the laws by
which they work are now codified and
well nnderstood by the experienced and
intelligent navigator. In a gale the
wind travels thirty or forty miles an
hoar. Its velocity increases to fifty or
sixty mileB in a storm, and reaches
eighty to a hundred miles in a cyclone
or hurricane ; it has even been estimated
as high as one hundred and twenty
miles an hour on some occasions.
This excessive speed, of course, was
during the squalls. One would hardly
imagine that anything could withstand
the fury of such a wind: and a real oldfashioned
West India hurricane does
prostrate honseB and trees, and destroye
almost every ship it can lay hold of.
The weli-remembered hurricane of 1878
caused a loss of one thousand vessels in
the north Atlantio ; the whole coast oi
Novia Scotia and Gape Breton wae
strewed with them. Forests and
houses went down before it along the
Bras d'Or. And yet there were some
small fishing-schooners of not over fortj
tons' burden that rode out of the hurricane
in safety. The typhoons of the
Indian ocean, or of the PaciQo, are verj
like the Atlantic hurricanes under a different
name. In the north Atlantic s
revolving storm goes against the hande
of a watch ; south of the line it pursues
the opposite direction. The omens preceding
a hurricane are of a nature tc
arouse awe and apprehension. A long,
mountainous swell sets in ; the windf

Journalistic Amenities.
A Californian editor invested in ?
mule, and the fact was chronicled undei
the heading, " Remarkable instance ol
self-posse&sinn." Said one Milwaukee
editor of another : " He is one of the
few journalists who can put anything ir
his mouth without fear of its stealing
anything and when a Western editoi
wrote, " We cannot tell a lie ; it was
cold yesterday his rival quoted th<
remark with the addition, " The lattei
statement iB incontrovertible; but the
former?"
Said an Idaho journal; "The weathei
has been hot again for the last few days
the only relief we could get was to lie
down on the Portland Herald and cove)
ourselves with the Portland Bulletin?
there is a great coolness between them.'
This kind of coolness often brings aboui
an amusing interchange of incivilities,
A Michigan journalist declared in hii
paper that a certain editor had sevei
toeB. The slandered man thereupon re
lieved his mind in a "leader," denounc
ing the statement as unwarranted, anc
its author devoid of truth and a scoun
drel to boot. The offending gentlemai
replied that he never wished it to be un
derstood that all the seven toes were
upon one foot; and the disgusted victin
of the "sell," appealing to his readers,
asked: "Are these subjects which
ought to be discussed in organs whos<
duty it is to mold public opinion ?'
Another worthy, of whom an enemj
affirmed that he had just made th<
strange discovery that he coald wag hii
left ear, did not condescend to impeacl
lhe truth of the statement, but mad<
mhtters even, by deolaring that the mat
wao gave it currency had both his aura
appendages under such control as to b<
able to fan himself with them in ho
weather.
| When one journal talked iu its leadinj
nrffain nf " buttered thunder." a con
temporary politely desired to know i
that had any affinity to " greased light
ning forcing the'explanation that by t
typographical error "muttered thunder
" was the article intended.
When a Western editor wrote, " We
are living at this moment under t
despotism," his opponent kindly ex.
plained : "Our contemporary meanB tc
say he has lately got married. *' A news
paper writer asserts that his ancestor
had been in the habit of living a hundred
yearn ; to which another responds
" That must have been before the introduction
of capital punishment." The
proprietor of a Wefetern journal announced
his intention of spending fifty
dollars on " a new head" for it. "Don't
do it," advised a rivul sheet; "bettei
keep the money and buy a new head for
the editor," that geiitlernan beinpr evidently,
in its opinion, " a young mun ?l
frugal mental capacity," a6 an Oregon
journalist delicately termed another.

therefore, made welcome, and his orj

Mrs. Clarence Ogden, proprietress of a fash- qt

Before Mtr. Ogden o >uld pive an alarm the 'a
intruders clapped a towel saturated in chloro- 01
form over her face, and she became uncon- ro
aoious and did not regain her senses until of
nearly noon the next day. After rendering
their victim helpless, the thieves ransacked a<
the apartment, stripping it of money, Jewelry fa
and other valuables. They took one diamond Pi
ring from Mrs. Ogden's finger and cut tho of
stones from another which they could not got a<
off. Early the next morning Mrs. Ogden was la
fnnnrt in an unconscious condition, and that ni

tho cog-wheels of the drum, and the bucket _
carrying the miners was dashed to the bottom. *,
As soon as possible after the accident ropes B
were procured and two men wero sent down E

the unfortunate men were found, all breath- p
ing, but badly injured. The ropes wore tied F
around their bodies, and ono at a time they
wero drawn up as carefully as possible. Not jj
ono of them escaped without broken bones ?
and severe internal injuries. One died soon ?
after reaching the surface, and two others died 11

National Thanksgirlng Proclamation. J 4
The following proclamation, setting apart 1
Thursday, Nov. 28, as ft day of thanksgiving, j
has been issued:
By the President of the United States, I I
i pRorrr.AMATiox: j |
The recurrence of that season at which it is
the habit of onr people to make devout and i
public confession of their constant dependence
upon the divine favor for all the good gifts of !
life and happiness and of public peace and I
prosperity, exhibits, in the record of the year, 1
abuudant reasons for ourgratitude and thanks- ;
giving. Exuberant harvests, productive mines, j
ample crop^ of staples, of trade and manufao- j
tures, have enricUed the countiy. The re- ,
sources thus furnished to our reviving indus- '
try and expanding commerce are hastoniDg the
day when discord and distresses, through the
length and breadth of the land, will, under the :
continued favor of Providence, have given way j
to confidence and energy, and assured prosper- i
itv. Peace with all nations has remained unbroken,
domestic tranquillity has prevailed, j
and the institutions of liberty and justice, a
which the wisdom ana vinue or our mmcm r
established, remain the glory and defense of ,
their children. The general prevalence of the
blessings of health through our wide land has
made more conspionoos the Bufferings and sorrows
which the dark shadow of pestilence has '
cast upon a portion of our people. This heavy
affliction even the Divine Ruler has tempered
to the suffering communities in the universal
sympathy ar-a succor wiiioh have flowed to
their relief, and the whole nation may rejoioe
in the unity of spirit in our people by which
they cheerfully share one another s burden.
Now, therefore, I, Rutherford B. Hayes, r
President of the United States, do appoint
Thursday, the 28th day of November next, j
as a day of national thanksgiving and
prayer ; and I earnestly reoommend that,
withdrawing themselves from secular cares and
labors, the people of the United 8tates do meet
together on that day in their respective places
of worship, there to give thanks and praise to '
Almighty God for his mercies, and to devoutly J
Leseech their continuance. <
Iu witness whereof, I have horeunto set my '
band and caused the seal of the United States j
to be affixed.
Done at the oity of Washington, this 30th |
day of October, in the year of our Lord 1878, I
and of the independence of the United States
the one hundred and third. R. B. HAYES.
