G '.- JPHE ADVERTISER THURSDAY, NOV. 20, 1879. Thanksgiving Proclamation. The following proclamation was ie BUd by the President:! "At no recurrence of the eeaeou which the devout habit of religious people has made the occasion for giv ing thanks to Almighty God and humbly Invoking His divine favor, has the material prosperity enjoyed y our whole country been;more con spicuous, more manifold orjinore uni versal. During the past year, alao, uubroSea peace with all; foreign na tions, the general prevalence of do mestic tranquility, aud the suprema cy aud security of the gieat institu tions of civil and religious- freedom have gladdened the hearts of our peo ple aud confirmed their attachment to their Government which the wis dom and courage of our uucestois so filly framed, and the wisdom and courage of their descendants have eo firmly maintained, to be the fhabita tlon of Liberty aud Justice to success ive generations. "Now, therefore, I, Rutherford B. Hayes, President of the United Slates. do appoint Thursday, the 27th day of November, instant, as a day of Na tional Tbankegivirj and Prayer; ana I earnestly recommend that, J with drawing themselves from senular carta and labors, that the people of the Uuited'Statea do meet together ou that day in cheir respective placet of worship, there to give thanks and praise to Almighty God for His mer cies, aud togdevoutly .beaeecu. their continuance. "In.witn3B whereof, I have here unto nut my hand and caused' the seal of the United States to be affixed'. "Done at the nlty of Washington, this 3d day of November, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hun dred aud seventy-nine, and; of the Independence of the United Stales, the onehundred-and fourth." RUTIIEKKORD B. HAYES. By'the President: W:a- EvAUTS,.Secretary of.State, Tilden is a dead duck, sure. -O The greeubaok party in Nebraska has got to be a pretty thin "outfit." A Mr. Killian'livlng; near Blootn- ngton III., is given up to. die bv. his physician, from the effects of a rat bite. Jay Gould haa purchased the cen tral brauch of the U. P. R. R., which nowesteuds from Atchison, Kansas, to Cawker City. Courtney and .Hanian; have gone into another agreement for J a ooutest with the oars. The prize is SG.000. and each has put up a forfeit of $500. The match will take place at Wash ington, December 9lh. The Chicago veterans-of Ibe Mexi can War meta cordial reception from Gen. Grant, while he was in that oily. This was Jvery. appropriate as Grant himself was a Mexican sol dier. The Nebraska City Press predicts tha Ed. Cams will some day he gov ernor of. Nebraska. Omaha Republi can. It does ? Then that is just the eamo as a funeral notice for the unfortunate Cams. Reoently In Texas In a dltob- called Alamo, the body .of an infant child was found, which was covered with hair, which resembled thatof ajyoung wooly dog. It was supposed to bave been born alive, and put out of the way because regarded! as a monetros- ity. The Omaha papers give an- account of the arrest of a. swindler in that city whose trick is selling brass rings, representing them to be gold. He has a woman's name engraved, in each ring to suit any lady he calls on. ne represents- mat ne is nam up and must partj with the ring which had heenglven him by.hisTnother or grandmother, but is willing to sacri fice It for a dollar or two, when the rings, including engraving; cost" only about two dollars a dozen. Some time ago, it will be remem bered, the Democrats of Blackvllle, S. C JUy au appointed, assassin named Williams, attempted to kill Nix, the colored postmaster of that place. Williams shot at Nix through the delivery opening while the latter was attending to the duties of the office, but failed In his dastardly undertak ing. The white people of the plaoe, being in sympatHy. with-the would be assassin, have refused to have him punished understate laws. But United States officers have arrestd Williams under the ohargo of conspi racy against the Government, and propose to have him duly punished. According to the Democratic- doctrine ' of State rights, the State of South Carolina, in this case, would have the only right to punish the crlmual, and that the United States has no right to enter into that State to protect Its postmasters or other officers. In this we find an illustration of the sweet scented doctrine of State rightsfrom a Democratic stand point. It Is 'not expected that the State courts ehouldfuave arrested andi pun ished Williams for attempted vio lence on the postmaster, but they should have done so for the protec tion of the citizen, and probably would have done so had not that citi zen been a black federal postmaster whom they decided, to "put out of the way." The United States can not. aud does not claim the power, to institute proseoution against a would be murderer of a citizen, of South Carolina, but has the right to punish a citizen of the-Unlted: States for con spiring to nullify the laws and hin der the opezatlonRof the maohinery of the Government of the United States. Immense Check. Editor Nebraska Advertiser. I notice that the Granger tells the people that it was very influential iu bringing about the result of the re cent election, in thte county.. This claim from the modest Moore brings a broad grin on the faees of certain par ties who are acquainted with the means brought to bear on Moore to prevent him not from using his ;i fluencc, for he' has none but to "hold him" from unlng his paper aud print ing office as the medium for doing the dirty work of the opposition.. It wasn't desirable that his paper, with its questionable reputation, should support the Republican ticket, but to merely hold it in check ; and a check rein with a gag bit, was put on the ed itor early In tha campaign, even be fore be went back totakaalookatthat old cradle. We, some of us, knew then, the course that had been outlined for Moore to follow. But he came near, on one or two ocoaslons, of go ing back on his orders, for ha had supposed he would get soma patron age some tickets to print or some thing from the Republicans. But as theeleotlon drew near, and be found The Advertiser doing all tha party work, poor milk-and-water Moore got sour, and but for an Incident Iu the nick of time he would have disobeyed hie orders, and gone straight for the Democrats. This incident was replete with fun for the manipulators, and wa like this: Moore bad been play ing his aauar independent .role of par rying water on both shoulders, while The Advertiser In its usual decisive and unequivocal manner was unspar ing in itsonslaughta on thoDetnoora oy. Hence Moore expeoted to print the tickets for the Democrats, "of course," but terrible was his wrath one evening when informed,, by ar rangement, that The Advertiser had already supplied the Democratic candidates with their tickets. This news being conveyed to Moore at just the right time had the desired effect He at once became wrathy, and swore like a woman, that he would have sweet revenge'. Jerking on his hat away he went to see his Demo cratic friend Jack Mercer,. to tell him of this new lufamy Frank Johnson aud Joe Docker had been guilty of. This readjusted the check-rein, but poor little contemptible milk-aud-wa-ter Moore, feeling chat he was-ignored by both, parties, old friends, every body, was sour and crous, aud would have taken revenga on. both, parties had be had a leader and a party to go to. In view of these facts, generally known here among both parties, Moore displayed' cheek equal to a hungry government mule in claiming that he had the leusc particle of influ ence In any dlreuliou in the late cam paign. Republican. o Some of the preachers, whose names appeared' to the circular Uued prior to the election to uffeot the vote of Mr. Gautiett, uid their names were forged to tho-oircular. This de nial brings out the following letter, written, lh Republican aayn, by "one of the Ieadiug Republicans aud Re publican Journalists of tbe.Stale:" THAT DENIAL. To the Editor of the.Rcpubliean : The sfibrt to lepudiale-tbe "Minis terial Circular" anathematizing Mr. Gannett, by the clergy of tbihcily, it. met by the broadest kind ol a grin. Not only uas the circular approved by these preachers but the original copy was actually flgned by three of them. And the Rev. Mr-Gregory. 6o far fraox not enooroing- it publicly "rose up in meeting" and advised his followers to "scratch the infidel' or words to that effect. The result' in tbl "city proves that the faithful worked faithfully at the polls as thpy were admonished to do. That Fair field wns privet to and counseled the plan, there cyn be no doubt. Tatrplay. Lincoln, November 13, 1879. The dog poisoner Is agaln'Ioose In this vlciuity. Falls City Journal Aud the man poisoner Is always loose, although hte business":!- more vile than the sneak whopolsons dogs. The man poisoner is licensed, howev er, to poison the whole community, If he can. The man poisoner nas a legal bargain with the city to carry on the poisoning business. The written contract is as follows:- ."I, the-may-or, party of the first part, do by au thority of law.hereb.v lioeuse and au thorize Messrs. Tom & Jerry to pois- on the fathers, sons, and husbands of the city of . Aud we, the said Tom & Jerry,, parties of the second part, in consideration of the glorious privilege above stated, do hereby agree to pay Into the common school fund the sum of $500." Hence, strange as It may saem.the man pois oner has a decided advantage over the dog poisoner. The saloon keepers of Chicago are wide awake. The Inter Ocean of a late datesnys : Tiie Saloon-keepers'; Association met yesterday afternoon in the Vor waerts Turuhalle ou Twelfth street. Philip Maas presided.

In York county, the regularly nom inated candidate on the Republican tioket for county clerk was defeated by four votes, by the Democratic can didate.

New York is all right. Electing tha whole RtpubHoan- tlokor, may be counted aertain la tba "solid; North" of 1880.

We are pleased to recordthe fol lowing for Omaha-: The police officers have Instructions to arrest all persons found guilty of violation of the statute to pi event cruelty to animals.

The German editors of St. Louis have been Interviewed regarding who they want for President of the United States.

We have no fear of the middle or frou tier section of the South, but we do dread what may occur fur ther down. That has become our btte noir. There is no discretion uaiong iho masses there, aud the leaders are without influence unless theycouseut to follow and become the mere crea tures of the mob.
