By the President of the United St ates : The process of the seasons has again enabled the husbandmen to garnor the fruits of his tmecessful toil. Industry Lag been generalij' well rewarded. Wo are are at peace with all natious. Tranquility, with few exoeptions, prevails at home. Within the past year we have in the inain been freo from the ills that have elsowhere affected our kind. If some of us have had ealamitics, there should be an occasion for sympathy with the sufferers ; a resignation on thuir part to the will of the Most High, and rejoicing to tho many who havo been more favored. I therefore recommend that on Thursday, the thirtieth day of November next, the people meet in their respective placos of worship and there make tho usual ackn wledgments to Almighty God for the bleings He has couferred upon them an 1 their merciful exemption from evils, anl inyoko His protection and kindness for t'.nir less fortúnate brethren, whom in His wisdom Ho doemed it best to chastise. Iu faith whereof I have hereunto sot my hiud and caused tho snal of State to be aüxed. Dono at the City of Washington, this 28th day of October, in the year of our Lord ouo thonsand eight hundred and seventy-one, and of the Independcnco of the Unittsd States the ninety-sixth. U. S. GRANT. By tho President.
