A PROCLAMATION. By the President of the United States of America, In conformity with a recent custom, that May now be regarded as established on nation} consent and approval, I, Andrew Johnson; President of the United States,do hereby re- commend to my fellow-citizens, that Thurs- day, the twenty-eignth day of November next, be set apart and observed throughout the Re- public as a day of National Thanksgiving and praise to the Almighty Ruler of Nations, with whom are dominion and fear, who maketh peace in His high places. Resting and refraining from secular labors on that day, let usreverentiy and devotedly give thanks to our Heavenly Father for the mercies and blessings with which He has crowned the now closing year. Especially let us remember that He has covered our land through all its extent, with greatly needed and very abundant harvest:; that he has caused industry to prosper, not only in our fields, bat also in our workshops. in our mines, and in our forests. He bas permitted us to multiply ebips upon eur lakes and riv- ‘ers; ‘Ald upon the high seas, and at the samo time to extend our iren roads so far into the secluded places of the Continent as to guar- antee sperdy overland intercourse between the two oceans. He has inclined eur hearts to tary away from the domestic contentions and commotions consequent upon a distracting and desolating civil war, and to walk more ond more in the ancient ways of loyalty, con- ciliat'on, and brotherly love. He has blessed the peaceful efforts with which we have estab- lizhed new and important commercial treaties with foreign nations, while we have at the same time strengthened our national defences, aud greatly enlarged our national borders, While thus rendering the unanimous and heartfelt tribute of nations] praise and thanks- giving wbich Is eo justly due to Almighty God. let us pot fall toimplore Him that the same Divine protection and care which we have bitherto so undezervedly, and yet so con- stantly, enjoyed, may be continued to onr country and our prople throughout all their genevations forever.

Sewarn, Secretary of State. re A LIGHT AssaULT—A person was convict- ed in the Court of (Quar'-r Sessions of Phila- delphia on Wednesday ot an arsault and bat- tery upon a lady committed under novel cir- cumstances. ‘the accused bad a mirror, which being turned with the strong reflection ofthe sum upon the face of the lady at some distance, who w38 looking outof a window, thereby caused her pain by the effect of the sun's rays upon her eyes. No blow was struck, end the action of the defendant was probably not eaue’d by eager. Nevertheless, the jury found the defendant guilty of an essault aud battery, upon the theory that any- thing that canses pain may bea buttery. We Svpy ose that the attention of the Court will be directed to the esse upon motion tor a new trial, and it will bea pica question to decide whether such an offence is really an assault and battery, nccord¢ng to the usual definitions of those misdemeanors. PrizE FIGBTING.—A prize fight took place on Friday, neav New York city, between Ted Mason and Ive King, which was Won by the latter im twenty-two rounds. The #ignt lasted one hour and ten minutes.

Mr. Ryall w-s promptly on hand; but Mr. Allen tailed to make b's eppearance, and it may now be generally understood that the fight is off, and that ail of Mr Alien’s talk abont fighting amounts to nothing more than talk.

The following sprightly letier has been re- ceived in this city from Gardner, the famous photographer, who is now taking sunlight pictures on the extreme verge of civilization: Fort Haves, Kansas, Oct. 19, 1°67.—Dear 8: Here 1 am in the very midst of what the Red Man claims as his country, butas yet 1 pave not seei1one. 1 bad a great desire to go off with the Peace Commissioners, but after ma- turely weighing everything, | came to the con- clusion not to go.

To-day | learned ot an Indian grave yard, or cemetery: it is gome eighteen miles off into the Cheyenne country, and as they are the most hostile tribe, it is doubtful if we can make up a party There is another reason why it will bea little hazardous to go there. It seems some white vandal had so little respect for the dead that he cut down a corpse ana carried off the encasement as arelic. The sentiment all through this State is very strong ‘with regard to the Indian, and is summed up m one word, extermination. In the printed in- structions of the Overland Express Company to tbeir sgents occurs the following passage : ‘Wherever you see an Indian shoot him.” To-day I made anegative at theend of the track, about four miles beyond this, of the workmen laying the rails, the locomotive and construction train upon the last laid rails.

You will be quite amazed when you see the size of it: it will be the last station on the read for this winter, and is likely to be a busy place. The foundation for a theatre is already laid, and the proprietor offered to fit me apa ery in the upper story. This city, like Jisworth, (very often pronounced with an as- piration.) will doubtless become a very hard place. It seems it was no uncommon thing it you walked out anything early in the morn- ing to find from twoto seven people laying shot on the street. One fine morning the people awoke to find two of the very roughest cburacters dangling to a tree; the vigilance committee had made their election sure. Many parties took the hint, and law and order now reigns triumphant. Tne weather ever since we left home has been delightful We have had about ten minutes’ rain in the whole period. There is a pleasant breeze blowing nearly all tbe time. Sometimes it has come up a little more than pleasant, but it don’t last long. We have acar all to our- selves, fitted up (as I sometimes <ay to Knox) with all the modern improvements.

He tried his hand on a buf- fulo the other day, but failed to bring him down. Aberd of from seventy to one hun- dred ran alongside of the train for several miles. Sometimes they were as near as 300 yards. The conductor stopped the train Eight or ten of us got after them with Spen cer’s, averal were bit, bu! none knocked over. Had we been on horseback five or six of them would certainly have been bagged. A Lule afterward we saw a herd of antelops.

The rapid progress of Washington in wealth and influence, as a city, is justly attracting at- tention. Before the rebellion It contained a Population of 65,000 souls: but to-day it is said to bave a population of 150.000, counting in the suburb of Geor.etow: The bu‘ldings erected during the present year number not less than 1,500, and yet renis continue exnorbitartly high, and comfortable dwellings are bard to obtain at any price. Northern ideas of yusi- ness have taken tne place of the old way of letting well enough alone, and there is a new spirit of enterprise prevailing, whicn promi.es to meke the city worthy of being the Natioral Metropolis. Aside trom its advantages as the seat of the National Government, there are those wo pre- dict tbat it 1s to become important as an eda- cational centre, & gathering place for literary and scientific institutions. Nature and the laws of Congre-s do not permit it to be a port of entry, so that It can never amount to much ae & commercial piece; nor is it well adapted to carrying on any extensive manufacturing business. In both these particulars it yields to Georgetown There are three colleges in the immediate vicinity of Washington—the Columbian Col. lege, the Georgetown College and the Freed- men’s University—all of which are more prosperous now than they have ever been before; but the city also contains one law school, two medical colleges, and 8 number of private seminaries of learning. While men of literary culture and law students can find there all the advantages hitherto possessed by northern ciiles, itis aeserted that to med:- eal students espectally the advantages of Waching'on are far advance of any other American city. They have there, for example, the unequalled — collcciion of the surgical department of the army, and a larger number et well-conducted hospitals than can elsewhere be found. If they wish to test the asgertions of their 1 arned bocks on medicine. they have every ,ecility sfforded them on the spot, at the National Garden of Plants and at the Smithsonian Institute: and it they desire early information in regard to the newly invented and very numerous surgical instruments, they have but to visit the Patent Office: and the advantages for study offered by the Library of ©ongress, now cne of the best and largest in the country, are 88 much for their benefit as for any other clase, To show that the people begin to appreciate the advantages of Washington as a center of medical science, it may be stated that the two Fatal RaiLpoaD AcciDENT.—The passen- ger train on the Little Miami railroad coming to Cineinnati met with 8 serious accident Sat- urday night at Xenia, within one hundredand fifty yards of the depot.
