They should also with humility and faith supplicate the Father of all mercies for contin ued blessings according to their needs, and they should by deeds of charity seek the favor of the Gran tor of every good and perfect gift. Therefore, I GSrover Cleveland ;JVesident ot the United States, do hereby appoint and set apart Thursday, the tw'enty-ninth day of November, instant, as a day of Thanksgiving and prayer, to be kept and observed by all the peo ple Q,f, the, land, . On that day let our ordinary work, and business be suspeuded and let us meet in our accustomed places of worship aud give thanks to Almighty God for our preservation as a nation, for our immunity from disease and. pestilence, for. .the harvests that have rewarded our husbandry, for a renewal of national prosperity and for every, advance in virtue and intelligence that has marked our growth.as a people. Ard with our thanksgiving, let us pray that these blessings may be multiplied unto . us - that . our national con science may be quickened tD a bet ter recognition of the power and goodness, of God, and that in our national life we may clearer see and closer .follow' the. path of righteousness. And in bur places of worship arid praise,, as we.ll as in the happy reunions ot kindred and friends on that day let us in voke divine approval by generousr iy remembering . the poor and needy. Surely He who has given us comfort and plenty will look upon our relief of the destitute and our ministrations of charity as the work of hearts truly grateful and as proofs of "the sincerity of our thanksgiving.

Sierned Grover Cleveland By the President : W. Q. Gresiiam Secretery of State. The Nicaragua Canal ReadAdmiral-Ammen, who has been for so many years intimately ideatified with Nicaragua-carial matters, having been appqiritedjby President- Grantas one trf a corn- mission to examine into all canal surveys made at points where airy possible favorable route1 neould be. had, wT rites a very interesting let- ter to the Times-Union, of Jack sdhvllTe, reviewing the history of this project and urging its impor tance. Admiral Ammon quotes a statement of President Grant, that the canal is of such importance that "it should be considered as a great national question, and should have the support of all parties." Nctwrithstanding this however, Ad miral Ammen writes: "Should the construction of the Nicaragua Canal be taken up by the demo cratic party, as suggested by the Times-Union, with its preponder ating majority in the House, it would not fail to pass. It would, in my beliel, receive almost unani mous support of the republicans both in the House and Senate. It is now apparent to the people of the South, especially those bor dering the gulf, and to the people bordering the affluents of the great Mississippi river, that the construction of this canal would make an overproduction of. cotton at fair prices impossible. It would open a market for tens of millions of tons ot coal for gulf ports to supply the thousands of steam ships that would pass through the canal and bevond into the Pacific, where their coal would have liter ally 'the inside track.' It would stimulate ship-yards over the m hole country and the manufact urers of the North and give us profitable markets over the whole Pacific, and notably in the Sand wich Islands and Australia, besides those of the Asiatic coasts." Continuing, Admiral Aaimen called attention to the fact, which has previously benn published in the Manufacturers' Record, thai President Grant -'claimed that on the completion of the Nicaragua Canal China and Japan would re quire more than 5,000,000 bales of cotton a year. Presidents Haves. Arthur and Harrison were all em phatic in their mdorsments in regard to the constructions of this canal, but there were opposing in fluence that prevented favorable action, especially in view of the fact that thedemocarts,a8 a party, were not favorably disposed, al though the canal has had no more able and ardent supporter than Senator Morgan." The statesmen made by Adrai r.U Ammen, while not new to the readers of the Manufactures'. Pte cord, are worthy of reiteration un til every man in this country, and especially everyone in the South, becomes imbued with the detirmi- nation to do all . in his power to press upon Congress the impor tance of this great work. ; The Manufacturers' Record ber lieves in its value from a broad national point of view, but espe cially because of the infinite value it would be to the South. No one can lully estimate the sfood that the building cf this canal would do to the entire .South.. We believe that it is a reasonable etaternenf to say that it would annually add to the wealth of the South more than ' the entire cost of the con- construction of the canal. It is in the- power ot Congress at its next session to enact such legislation as will'insure the sarly construction of this great work. Will the South make itself felt by an active interest in this vital question, so essential to its owu Droeress and peosperity. Manufacturers Rec ord. - John G Mauger Editor of the Sanbeam.

Washington, Oct. 29, '94: That the continued silence of Pres ident Cleveland concerning the New York campaign is not pleas ing to the average democrat it is useless to deny. True, it is not too late for him to say a good word for the plucky fight that Senator Hill is making, but nothing that he can now say will, in the opinion or experienced campaigners, do a9 much good to the party in that state as ordinary circumstances it would not be considered necessary for the President to say that he wishes to see the ticket nominated by his party in any state election, but in New York, even aside from the known personal relations ex isting between the President and Senator Hill, there are peculiar circumstances which made such an expression of opinion desirable,not only for its effect upon the vote cast for the State ticket but to aid the democratic candidates in the Congrf ssional districts. Although no stock is taken here in the claim of the government of Germany that its decree prohibit ing the importation ot American caUle and dresseit beef was issued because there was Texas fever in two cargoes of American cattle, lately carried to -that country, the Department of Agriculture ...has taken steps to investigate' the claim. If it be true, as believed, that Germany's real reason .is to retaliate, because of the differen ential duty on her sugar imposed by the new tariff, somebody has blundered, and the blunder'may defeat the intention, already "ex pressed, to repeal that duty at the coming session of Congress. Representative Davey, of La., was in Washington on business several days ago, says the talk a bout electing several republican Congressmen from that State, which'republicans are indulging m, strikes him as being very ab surd. He thinks the only district in which the revolting sugar plant ers aae numerous . and influential enough to have even a fighting chance of defeating the democratic candidate for . Congress in the Se cond, and that the democrats will carry that by a very small margin The othee five Congressional dis tricts, he says, will be certain to go democratic, as usual. It is difficult to see where the republicans are to make, the gains necessary to deprive the democrats of the present large majority in the House, when the returns of the carefulcanvass made bv democrats in every section of the country, now being received ' by the demo cratic Congressional campaign committee, are studied. From In diana, where the republicans have been claiming evetything, comes the news that the- democrats will certainly carry ten of the eleven Congressional districts carried by them in 1892, and had a good chance to carry the eleventh ; from Wiscorisin,where ridiculous claims have also been made by republi cans, comes the declaration that the democrats will be certain to carry five ot the six districts they carried in 1892, with a fighting chance in the two other districts, and from North Carolina, where the republicans and populists have formed a fusion which at one time did look dangerous, comes the as surance that the legislature, which will elect two U. S. Senators, will certainly be democratic, and that the Congressional delegation will be solidly democratic, gain of one member. Senator Faulkner, who, in addi tion to the knowledge he has ac quired as chairman of the Con gressional campaign committee, knows the district as well as the voters personally and thoroughly, says he regards chairman Wilson's re-election to Congress aa being well-nigh certain, and he would regard it as absolutely certain were it not for the fear that large sums of money, . which report says has been contributed by the protested manufacturera who are anxious to defeat Mr. Wilson, will be spent in the outright purchase of votes There is no law providing for a registration of voters in West Vir gidia, consequently there is some opportunity for the manipulation of a largn crooked floating vote. However Senator Faulkner says this danger will be minimizod by the vigilance of the democrats. Of course no amount of vigilance can prevent a legal voter selling his vote, if he be so disposed, but they can be detected and both they and their 1 ribers punished, and they will be, wherever possible. "If I were asked," paid a demo crat of national reputation, "to criticise the work done by the democratic Congressional cam paign committee, this year, I know of but one thing with which I would find fault. I don't think the committee has made the fusion of the republicans with the popu lists in six states as widely known in some sections of the country as it should. I think democratic votes would won hi have been made in the Middie and Eastern States, if in no other section, by widely advertising the fact that the republicans were supporting populist candidates for Congress in Virginia, North Carolina, Geor giw, Alabama, Arkansas and Tex as, while members of the same party were asking the votes of the business men of other-States on the ground that it was the only party which believed in an honest and sound financial system. The American people do not believe in hypocricy, in politics or anything else, and it would have paid the dimocrats to have shown up this republican duplicity." SPECIMEN' CA3E3. C H.

M urler Most Fonl- The details of a most horribla murder comes, from Bullock's, a statian on the O. & C, thi3 side ot Oxford. It was committed on last Friday, the 26th, just leaked out yesterday morning, as the parties to the affair attempted to keep it hid. All of the parties or colored peo ple rud the murder, from all the evidence that can be obtained, was committed by children not over 12 years, and all related to each other. Lucy Allen, a girl not more than 10 or 12 years old, and whoso mother, Lucyndy Allen, lives in Henderson, - was visiting in com pany with her sister, Mary, Allen their grandfather, a colored man named Brown, at Bullock's. A cousin of these two girle Yenable Brown, was also there and it seems that Mary Allen and the boy Yen anle did not like lucy. There ia something behind this fact wh'ch we have been unable to get; out this is the preface to the horrible story. On Friday last she was murder ed. . For fear it would get out Lucy Allen was buried without an in vestigation and her grandfather would have nothing to do with the case or even report if. By some means it leaked out. Yesterday morning' J. N. Brown, a constable, and Dr. W. O. Bask3rville from Oxford came over to Bullock's and had the body exhumed. The strongest evidence W8s adduced that she was murdered. There was a deep cut under one eye, one hand was split in two lengthwise, and she was terrible beaten up about -the head as the bruises (showed. This was not all, The investigation brought to light the fact the boy had used one of thes cap pistols and had fired it about over the body and burnt holes ia ths clothing and flesh. Yenable Brown was arrested and carried to Oxford yesterday, whert he is now in jail held for the mui der of his cousin. The sister of th murdered girl is also impilcated, but she had gone back to Hender son, neiore the investigation was made. Officers were to have gone there last night or this morning to arrest her.

The Greenville News of last Sunday says: "Keporfs" reach hera from HendersonVille of the birth of the most remarkabla infant even heard of. It was born the earl)r part of this week and us father is 70 and its mother 69 years old. The parents are prom inent people, of high slanding and ages are well authenticated. The medical reports tell of no similar case, and the local traditions of this section halt at the age t f 55 for maternity. Such matters are not usually subjects for publation but this is likely to -be a case oi world-wide fame," The News is unduly excited a- bout this incident in question. Several similar cases have been reported, as it will find on consult ing't.he book of Genesis. It is not surprising, moreover, that such a thing has happened in this section this year. These are record-break ing times in the Carolinas and the only matter of wonder, indeei, is that the Bewcomer war not born on this eide of the state line.
