A National Thanksgiving
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
OF AMERICA.
A PROCLAMATION.
STATES
The year drawing towards its close
has been filled with the blessings of
fruitful fields and healthful skies. To
these bounties, which are so constantly
enjoyed that we are prone to forget the
source from which they come, others
have been added, which are of so extra
ordinary a nature that they cannot fail
to penetrate and soften even the heart
which is habitually insensible to the ever
watchful providence of Almighty God.
In the midst of a civil war of unequal
ed magnitude and severity, which has
sometimes seemed to foreign States to
invite and provoke aggression, peace
has been preserved with all nations; or
der has been maintained, the laws have
been respected and obeyed, and harmo
ny has prevailed elsewhere, except in
the theatre of military conflict; while
that theatre has been greatly contracted
by advancing armies and navies of the
Union.
Needful diversions of wealth and
strength from the fields of peaceful in
dustry to the national defence have not
arrested the plow, the shuttle, or the
ship. The axe has enlarged the bor
ders of our settlements, and the mines,
as well of iron and coal as of the pre
cious metals, have yielded even more
abundantly than heretofore. Population
has steadily increased, notwithstanding
the waste that has been made in camp,
the siege, and the battle-field; and the
country, rejoicing in the consciousness
of augmented strength and vigor, is per
mitted to expect continuance of years,
with a large increase of freedom.
No human counsel hath devised, nor
hath any mortal hand worked ont these
great things. They are the gracious
gifts of the Most High God, who, while
dealing with us in anger for our sins,
hath nevertheless remembered mercy.
It has seemed to me fit and proper that
they should be solemnly, reverentially,
and gratefully acknowledged as with one
heart and voice by the whole American
people.
I do therefore invite my fellow-citizens,
in every part of the United States, and
those who are at sea, and those who are so
journing in foreign lands t set apart and
observe the last Thursday of November
next, as a day of Thanksgiving and
Praise to our benificent Father who
dwelleth in the Heavens.
gfAnd I recommend to them that, while
offering up the ascriptions justly due to
Him for such singular deliverance and
blessings, they do also, with humble pen
itence for our national perverseness and
disobedience, commend to his tender
care all those who have become widows,
orphans, mourners, or sufferers in the
lamentable civil strife in which we are
unavoidably engaged, and fervently im
plore the interposition of the Almighty
Hand to heal the wounds of the nation
and restore it as soon as may be consis
tent with the Divine purpose to the full
enjoyment of peace, harmony, tranquili
ty and union.
In testimony whereof, I have set my
hand and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this
third day of October, in the
year of our Lord one thousand
eight hundred and sixty-three,
and of the Independence of the
L. 8.
United States the eighty-eighth.

INCIDENTS OF CHICK AM A VGA.
The Chicago Journals correspondent
furnishes the following thrilling incidents
of the battle of Chickamauga :
But here is a little story of something
that came out of the leaves on Sunday,
whence, as from a first meridian, they yet
reckon at Chattanooga. I had it in mind
to tell a dozen letters ago, but it has slip
ped out of sight till now. At one time
there was a lull in the battle ; at least it
had gone shattering and thundering down
the line, and the boys were as much "at
ease " as boys cmn be upon whom, any
moment, the storm mar roll back again.
To be sure, occasional shot, with now
and then a cometary shell, kept them
alive, but one of the boys ran down to a
little spring, and toward the woods where
the enemy lay, for water. He had just
stopped and swung down his canteen,
when Vck a rifle ball struck it at an
angle and bounded away. He looked
around an instant, discovered nobody,
thought it a chance shot a piece of lead,
you know, that goes at a killing rate with
out any malice prepense and so, nowise
infirm of purpose, he again bent to get
the water. Ping a second bullet cut
the cord of his canteen and the boy " got
the idea ;" a sharpshooter was after him,
and he wont to the right about and double
quick to the ranks. A soldier from an
other part of the line made a pilgrimage
to the spring, was struck, and fell by its
brink. But where was the marksman ?
Two or three boys run out, to draw his
fire while others watched. Crack went
the piece again, and some keen-eyed fel
low spied a puff of smoke rolling out from
a little cedar. That was the spot, then;
the rebel had made him a hawk's nest
in choice Indian, a Chattanooga, in the
tree, and drawing the green covert around
him, was taking a quiet hand at " steeple
shooting at lung range.
A big, blue-eyed German, tall enough
to look over into the third generation,
and a sharpshooter withal, volunteered to
dislodge him. Dropping into a little run
away, that neared the tree diagonally, he
turned upon his back and worked himself
cautiously along ; reaching a point peril
ously close, he whipped over, took aim
as he lay, and Ood and his true right
hand " gave him good deliverance."
Away flew the bullet; an instant elapsed,
the volume of the cedar parted, and
" like a big frog," as the boys described
it, out leaped a gray-back ; the hawk's
nest was empty, and a dead rebel lay un
der the tree. It was neatly done of the
German man grown. May he live to tell
the story a thousand times to his moon
faced grandchildren.
The "idea" that the first boy at the
spring " got," might be pleasanter , when
the notion that somebody is making a
target of you creeps with its chilly feet
slowlyupyour back, you can hardly help
shrinking into yourself just a little, though
you may not be quite ready to own it. I
recall in this connection an incident de
rived from the Division Surgeon, who
played a part in it. He was riding ac-
cross a field where the battle had raged
fiercely, but just swept on, and was mak
ing Lis way slowly across the drifts of
friend and foes the blue and the gray
together when a wounded Federal soldier
asked for water. The Surgeon gave him
the draft, when a voice from a gray heap
near by said, " Won't you give me one,
too, Doctor ?" " Certainly I will;" and
he was just raising the rebel and bring
ing round the canteen slung under his
arm to put it to his lips when a cannon
shot from a rebel battery struck the earth
on one side: a second bounded by on tho
other. The man looked upinto the sur
geon's face with a half smile, " I am
afraid they mean us Doctor." At that
instant a third shot hit the target, and a
headless trunk fell from the supporting
arm. There was another dead rebel. Of
a trnth they did " mean us," and the sur
geon hastened away.
Shell are queerly behaved things, of
ten harmless against all probabilities,
and, when you would think they must be
deadly, only patching thunder. If a
shell passes you by only a few feet bej
fore it bursts, you are pretty sure to be
good for the next one that comes, since
each fragment takes away its share of
the motion and flies. If a shell shows
simptoms of " making a landing " just
to be toward and past the shell, but how
rapidly one could ran in that direction
I have no means of knowing, having
never seen the man that tried it A solid
shot is the most deceptive of projec
tiles. It may seem to move lazily, to be
almost dead, but so long as it moves at
all beware of it Just before the battle
an artilleryman received his discharge
for disability, but delaying, for some
reason, his northward journey, he was
yet with his battery on the eve of the en
gagement, and true to his instincts, took
his old place beside the horse and was
just preparing to mount, when a solid shot
ome ricocheting across the field, bound
ed up and struck him in the lower part
of the body, Crying out, '' I've got the I
first ticket boys ! ne sanic down, ana
only added, with that strange Ureau of a
little hurt a terribly wounded man always
seems to feel, " lay me down by a tree
where they wont run over me.' They
complied with his request, hastened into
position and saw him no more. The
poor fellow's discharge was confirmed
by Heaven. Now that fatal ball, when
having finished its work there, it leaped
lazuy on, pushed out tne sum oi tne ar
tillerist's coat as a hand would move a
curtain, without rending it.
They have the strangest pets in the
army, that nobody would dream of "tak
ing to" at home, and vet they are little
touches of the gentler nature that give
you some such cordial feeling when yon
see them as I am told residents of Bour
bon county, Kentucky, habitually experi
ence at so much a gallon. One of the
boys has carried a red squirrel through
"thick and thin " over a thousand miles.
"Bun" eats hard tack like a veteran,
and has the freedom of the tent An
other's affections overflow upon a slow
winking unppecul&iive little owl, cap-
tured in Arkansas, and bearing a name
with a classical 8 uack to it Minerva.
A third gives his heart to a young Cum
berland Mountain bear, but chief among
, camp pets, are dogs. Riding on the
j saddle-bow, tucked into baggage-wagon,
mounted on knap-sacks, growling under
the gun, are dogs brought to a prema
! ture end as to ears and tails and yel
j low at that ; pug-nose, square-headed
I brutes, sleek terriers, delicate morsels of
spaniels, "Tray, blanche, Sweetheart,
little doas and alL'' A dog, like a horse,
comes to love the rattle and crash of
musket and cannon. There was one in
an Illinois regiment, and, I rather think,
regarded as belonging to it, though his
name might not be on the muster roll,
that chases half-spent shot as a kitten
frolicks with a ball of worsted. He has
been under fire and twice wounded, and
left l e tip of his tail at the battle of
Stone River. Woe to the man who shall
wantonly kill him. But I was especial
ly interested in the fortunes of a little
white spaniel that messed with a batteiy
aud delighted in the name of " Dot'1
No matter hat was up, that fellow's
silken coat must be washed every day,
and there was need of it, for when the
battery was on the march, they just
plunged him into the sponge bucket
not the tidiest chamber imaginable
that swings like its more peaceful cousin
the tar-bucket, and the rear axle of the
gun-carriage plumed him in that, clap
ped on the cover, and Dot was good for
an inside passage. OLe day the battery
crossed a stream and the water came
well near up to the guns. Nobody
thought of Dot, and when all across, a
gunner looked into the bucket ; it was
full of water, and Dot was as dead as a
little dirty door-mat Departed, mourn
ed and buried, it is time I put a dot to
his story.
That nearly all our gallant, noble
dead remain nnburied on the field of
Chickamauga must send a thrill of hor
ror through the land ; that they lie
where they fell, appaling and ghastly
objects, denied the poor hospitality of
the grave-digger, and offending the sun
shine. The words " man " and " hu
manity " should be blotted out of the
rebel lexicons. How shall I say it ?
the birds of prey settle upon that field
and swine fatten their way through the
fallen ranks of glory ! I have this from
sources too many and direct ; the horri
ble assertion is not shaded by a doubt
And yet, the rebels passed days in pick
ing up fragments of iron, broken arms,
anything that could possible be made of
use, with which the field was strewn, and
were only driven off when all the heavy
air was poisoned by the unburied. "Look
on this picture and on this" day
before yesterday the gallant Hooker's
Federal soldiers consumed the hours in
giving burial to the rebels who fell in the
recent battle. Are the feet of the aveng
ing gods shod with wool, that we cannot
hear their steps upon the threshhold,
hastening to punish the incredible bar
barity of those traitors whose guns are
playing as I write traitors to Govern
ment, God and mankind.
