The foIlowig is1 the proclamation in full of the President of (be United States recommending ja day of thanks giving: t Io furtherance of the custom of thi8 people at the closing of each year, to engage upon a day set apart for that purpose, in a special fcstiyal of praise to the Giver of all good, I, Chester A. Arthur, President of the United State.i, do hereby designate Thursday, the 2lHlnday of November inst , as a Jay of national thanksgiving, , i Thejyear which is drawing to an end baa been replete is ith evidence of di vine cgoodneca. The prevalence of health, the fulness of the harvests, the stability of peace and order, the growth of fraternal feeling, the spread of in telligence and learning, the continued enjoyment of civil and religious lib erty all these and countless other blessings are cause for fervent , rejoic ing.! 1 do therefore recommend that on toe day above appointed the people rest from their accustomed labors, anl, meeting in their several plices of wcr . ship, express their devour gratitude to God that lie hath dealt so bouotiiully with this nation and pray that His grace and favoi abide with it forever. Chester A. Arthilr, President of the United States. V By the President: ' F. T. Feklinghoyses, ; Secretary of State. . Mr. Sutton, of Chowan county, we understand, is in the field and at work lor. Pool. v : Every vote cast Tor Charled U. 1W is for good government, and his elec tion will bring about tbe'uroaperily of the people. ' t We hope the an;i-bourbpns( 61 Car teret, will not allow the internal dis sensions in their rank to cause any - want of . zeal on their part to elect Pool. 7 : .: : ' i villi;, va., kiot. The riot in which four colored men were killed and (.en or fifteen wounded and two or three white men wounded, was brought on by order of the Dsnio cratic party to net up, a row so they could the better draw the color iine. HON. 1 II AKLES C. POOL. This gentleman will be elected, so those of hi.j lrieod claim w.io seem to know, and we hope 'he will not be de feated by the want of support uf anyi Republican or Liberal in 'he district." A man who fails to vote for Puol is . not entitled to vote at all. The ElizabetbJCity Falcon, the lead ing Democratic paper of the lirs dis-' trict, say: "Juikje Charges C. Tooi, IS CF.RTA1N.KY A REKINKU ANI til, TUREIUiKNTLKMAN ANIl A MAN OF EX TENSIVE EDUCATION AND FIRST KATE AiiiLiriK;" It will be sceu lrom the above that eft'iu Democratic pap-jf.s speak -highly of Judge l'ool. Ev true, good, houet man iu that district should vote for him. r ATTKMPTEW OSTItAt'IVU IX VIHiilM A. ! The d!ierate tight against nil that j is liberal, generous, llepublican aud i.-.

If madness be a token of : the dcossful disfavor of the gods, then are the days of Virginia' subjectiou.lo a political aristocracy m v. rapid ly drawing to a close.

"Write toui!" said M; Morden as he grasped his hand, y Poor Jim! If Mr. Morden had stuck a knife into him he could not hare hurt binrmore. lie could nbt write a word, and could barely read. lie was a genuine pioduct of the lawless, free booting system that his father had pur sued. Coarse, rough, ignorant, and more or less infected with the vices of his surroundings, his associations with the Mordens had opened new visions to him, and perhaps lor the first time in all his life his nobler nature had found utterance in his takiue the bart of Mr. Morden against the half-barbarian ag-1 giconivuii ui iud cuier uruuiueiu, rilb there was the riDg of true mahhood in him, and when he left Mr. Morden there were resolves made that he had never before dreamed of. Mr. Morden gathered his harvest in peace and security, and it was 'abund ant. There were at least one hundred bushels of apples, and, what was won derful, the pricj was actually lower than had been known for years before. It required a vast amount of labor to gather; these bountiful crops, and many a neighbor who bad nothing oi his own to harvest earned & goodly sum of money by working for Morden. JIM IS HEARD FROM, We uow pass over a period of three ydars, and the chafes in the Morden n-ii;hborbojd were such that the place could hardly be recognized. Almost every firmer bad become convinced of tbe superiority, of Morden's way of farming, and had built fences, and planted hedges, and Brombeau was crowded into his own lair, Then came the -'aniens, the orchards, the flower bads, and the schools. Edith laorden, being col sidered the best educated, per s in in the, neighborhood ?jiva prevailed upon lo 1 teach, whi ;h i, she d'd lor several terms. All these im provements Ltld Brombeiii fought with all his power tbit is lo say, ar gui'ieut'aiivv power, for, with the great laituro to "sweep Mjrdeu'a rairie tlean,',' eatue the end ;f tjio reign of lorce- : Ile was g'ttitig hemmed, into the rather narrow limits of his farm, aud it so wore on 'him that he resolved to emigrate to Texas or Mi xico t r some other vild region where he wou'd have no Mordens to cross his path. But death came, and poor o!d Brombeau went to hi little home only six leel by three. Svon after this event Mr. Mor den re. 1 ived a letter from James Brom beau. He had not heard from him at ail except occasionally through the Brombeauv - Iu his letter to Mr. Morden he men- tioiied briefly what b had been doing." On this point, one passage is worth quoting: "I have pot be-u idle. When I lirst left borne J had everything to 1 earn even the fipst courtnon kinds of work 011 a ..farm. Now,however, 1 can say that I am familiar with most kiuds Of Sarin" labor. I have also learned the trade of engineer." "Why," says Mr. Morden, "what a splendid handwriting Look at that letter. Edith, and near: what he w;itea: " I have just arrive in New Orleans after more than a ytar' absence in California, and, .having nome business to attend to rhich wtH detain me, I write to lei you know f my safe arri val.

After the greetings were over, Mr. Morden said: "It is only two weeks ago that I receivedyour letter the first aud only reliable wnrd we have heard from you in three years." l"You do not mean to sy the only Utterr ' , the imly One.'' i.uu 1 De wutteo yiu as o I ten as omA? iu two or three mocths ft,r ayer Well, well, 'bat is stranse rnourb 1 1 1 . , . 0 a 1 v nouuocu iu wimuereq wny you did not write to us.

In bis old age be would frequently ride for miles along ihe banks of the Illinois river, and as he saw the waters rushing unimpeded to the Mississippi he would say, regretfully: "What a pity that so much power should go to waste! This valley of tbe Illinois ought to be alive with the mtisic of cotton and woolen mills, the iifon foundry, the machine shop. What a population of working men, artisans, and laborers might be kept in employment by the proper use of this water-power; and what a mar ket for our farmers!
