Thanksgiving Day. As if in acknowl
edgment of the propriety of keeping
thanksgiving on Thursday, the sun rose
with unusual splendor and the day was
one of exceeding pleasantness and beauty.
The air was mild and genial asSpring,
and all nature seemed to join with a
christian people in giving praise and
thanksgiving to the Author of all good.
Most of the business houses in this city
were closed at an early bour.and our whole
population, almost, seemed to confess the
propriety of observing the day.
Services were held in most of the
churches and at each large congregations
were in attendence.
At the lst(0. S.) Presbyterian church,
Rev. A. Sterrett, officiated, taking as the
foundation of his disconrae the 100th
Psalm.
After acknowledging the authority on
which the day was observed, he enumer
ated the common blessings for which we
tad cause to give thanks, but which are
so common and perpetual that we are
prone to forget the source whence they
eminated.
These were, simple existence, health,
freedom from mental anxiety, all tempo
ral good things, and all spiritual bles
sings and privileges.
But there were special blessings for
which we have cause to give thanks,
among these were the following :
Though war had come near us, we at
the north have been exempt frctn its
ravages.
The rich returns of agricultural inter
ests, the great productiveness of every
branch of mechanical and commercial
iadustiy, our preservation from for.
eign complications, our relations with
the great powers of the world being bet
ter than at any time since the rebellion
broke out. That in these perilous times
God has given us a Governor so wise,
patriotic and energetic, as to chal
lenge the admiration of the whole
nation. We should be thankful that
in these perilous times, God had given
us a President of great honesty, simplic.
ity, patriotism, impartiality, coolness and
tenacity of purpose, and withal, exhibiting
so much of a devout and godly spirit
For the great progress our arnties have
made by land and by sea.
The high stand our State has been en
abled to take for patriotism, liberality,
noble daring and bravery.
'.'or the signal manner in which all
the plans for mischief in the loyal .States
have come to nought For triumph over
mobjciw.
Our great financial prosperity, as illus
trated by the good credit of the Govern
ment That the North is substantially a unit,
and that we are in no danger of civil
war in the loyal States as illustrated in
the events attending Lee's invasion of
Pennsylvania, Morgan's raid and the
late elections. That so far in this dread
ful strife the principles of universal free
dom have been steadily gaining ground;
that the principles set forth in the De
claration of Independence are being
vindicated. That in this contest between
Aristocracy and Democracy, the latter
is larselv in the ascendant. That the
capacity of a free and enlightened people
to goverft themselves is being fully de
monstrated to the joy of the down-trodden
millions of earth's oppressed sons.
le ought to be thankful tnat the in
stitution of domestic slavery is virtually
no more. Its political power, which
alone has sustained it for many years
past, is utterly gone, and although it
still actually exists in a small part of
our teritory. it will soon die of its own
inherent weakness, if let alone.
This has been accomplished contrary
to the nation's wish and intention, not by
the President's Proclamation, not by
he acts of Congress but the dreadful
God had rolled His chariot of fire
text were appropriate to. the occasion.
The speaker noticed the fundamental
truth implied in the text, that there is a
divine control in the affairs of this
world, as manifested in the material, so
cial and spiritual world not implying,
however, that God orders every event
and act.
W bile the scriptures teach the Divine
Sovereignty and control, they as clearly
j declare min's moral agency, his power of
choice or refusal, to obey or disobey, and
as citizens may be free to act under hu
man governments, so may man's moral
agency remain intact, under the Divine
Government.
He noticed in the second place that
by this Divine control we have reccired
especial blessings during the past year
for which we should be thankful.
Life has been preserved. We have had
seed-time and harvest, the early and the
latter rain. Our civil rights and relig
ions privileges are undisturbed. Our
national trials and sufferings have work
ed for our good God, by these " has
proved us" a Government able to
stand not only before foreign emisaries,
but also to successsful y meet the
shock of civil conflict By these He
has " tried us as silver is tried" sepa
rating the sin of slavery the dross from
the pure metal leaving our glorious
flag to wave over " the land of the free
and the home of the brave. "
And lastly, the triumphs of our arm
les during the past year, the victory at
Gettysburg, the fall of Vicksburg and
Port Hudson, Jfce, give good promise of
a speedy overthrow of the rebellion, and
the establishment of a just, honorable,
and lasting peace. For which " make
the voice of His praise to be heard " in
all the land.
In the Walnut Street Presbyterian
Church, the Pastor, Rev. Mr. McCarer.
delivered a discourse from the text " To
what purpose is this waste," (Mat. 26:8.)
In which he showed that those who look
upon the contest now waging for the Na
tion's life, as barren of good results, and
that the treasure and life expended in the
war, is mere waste, are mistaken. He
showed, also, we think conclusively, that
the benefits which will flow out of the
successful prosecution of the war, will
be worth all it costs the nation. Nor are
these benefits to be confined to the North
t
but shared equally by the South. In.
deed, that the Sonth will derive greater
blessings from the destruction of the pe
culiar institutions than the North. We
are, in fact, fighting for the good of the
South. It would be an unspeakable
curse to them, to let them consummate
their attempt at secession. Our terribl6
war will soon be over, and the sufferings
and cost will be unspeakably less than
the Aggregate of sufferings, if the con
test was postponed, and then made a
protracted one. He declared that he
would rather have " severe agong and
soon over" than to be bound to the
wheel of torture for long years. The
act of emancipation was spoken of
purely as a war measure ; God had suf
forred the Union armies to be defeated,
so that the necessity of this measure might
be made plain to the nation.
If we come out of this contest, estab
lishing the nation upon righteous princi
ples, it will exert a tremendous influence
in hastening on the kingdom of the Lord
Jesus Christ.
The speaker exhorted his hearers, to
have faith in God to have faith in the
progress of events to sympathize with,
and heartily support, the authorities of
the land in crushing the rebellion; and,
if there was need, in order to accomp
lish this, that they should be ready to of
fer up. their children, and themselves too,
upon the altar of their God, and the al
tar of their country.
He then concluded by declaring his
assured conviction, that, after the war
was over, the sections North and South
would not long continue embittered in
their feelings towards each other. But,
under the inflnence of a purer religion,
and the out pouring of the Divine Spirit
everywhere, would be melted into the holi
est fellowship, nnd, sorrowing over the
melancholy past, would rise into a high
er national life, and pres3 onward and
upward towards the sublime heights to
which events are now urging us thence
forth TTNiTCD having only one country)
one hope, one ambition and one destiny.
Tne several speakers presented their
views with much fervor and eloquence,
giving evidence that their hearts were in
the cause.
At night Gen. Carrington spoke to a
large audience in the lecture room of the
Walnut Street Church, which was crowd
ed. His speech was a master effort, be
ing, as we have heard it remarked by in
telligent gentlemen, the ablest speech on

HAIR DYE! HAIR DYE!!
New York, November 27. A special
dispatch from Cincinnati to the PhilaJ
clciphia Inquirer says:
We have some reports from Knoxville
which seem to indicate that Buruside is
perfectly secure in his position.
1 he rebel cavalry is now in the country
lying between Cumberland Gap and
Knoxville, but no damage has been done
a -p m 1 i
yet
Longstreet has not made a heavy as
sault on the city, but seems anxious to
ecure prominent positions tor his batter
ries, so that he can command the city
from different points and demand a ca-
pitulrtion.
He acts as thougn nis iorces were not
sufficient to hazard a heavy battle under
existing circumstances.
A column is alreadv moving for the
relief of Burnside under Gen. Wilt-ox,
and reinforcement are being sent as
rapidly as possible.
Bragg attempted to make a stand f
(Jhicamauga button, but was again
forced back. The rebels were in full re
treat on Dalton.
Parson Brownlow is in the interior,
and working hard to keep open commu
nications with the army.
There is nothing from General Burn
side. It is conjectered that Longstreet will
attempt to join Bragg; but ample provis
ion has been made to prevent tne con
summation of any such attempt. He will,
therefore, be forced to retreat in Virginia,
if he will be able to get away at all.
There is officiaf authority for assert
ing that in the several battles just fought
before Chattanooga, we have captured
7,000 prisoners at least.
The Jiepublican has the following in
an extra:
The army of the Potomac advanced
yesterday morning, and doubtless cross
ed the Rapidan without much opposi
tion, as firing was. heard at Bealton's
Station, which commenced at X o ciock.
LateBt from Chattanooga.
