THANKSGIVING.

Proclamation by the Governor.

The closing scenes of a most eventful year bring with them the appropriate time to offer unto Divine Providence the tribute of our thanksgiving and praise. If, heretofore, such times have been observed, in anywise, in obedience to the demands of custom, rather than as a grateful offering to God, the signal mercies and kindness we have, as a nation, been made the recipients of during the present year, should surely awaken us to a newer and fuller realization than ever of the reverence and gratitude due to Him who holdeth the destinies of the Nations in His hands.

Our long and bloody civil war is ended, and Peace again smiles upon the land; and the end shows that God has been with us, giving victory to our armies, and guiding the councils of the nation.

Our harvests have been plentoous, and the rewards of every branch of labor and industry have been ample.— Neither famine nor pestilence has been known in our borders, and although we are called upon to lament the loss of many of our brave soldiers who have given their lives as a sacrifice for their country, yet the return of so many thousands to their homes, from bloody fields made illustrious by their valor, is a source of joy to all. The future is full of hope for the enduring peace and prosperity of the State, and illimitable prospects for National progress, power and glory, are spread out before us.

In view of these many blessings, and in compliance, not only with custom, but the convictions of duty, I do hereby appoint Thursday, the 7th of December next, as a day of Thanksgiving and praise to Almighty God for His mercies, and earnestly recommend to the people of Indiana that laying aside their ordinary avocations, they assemble themselves together in their usual places of worship, and observe that day in the manner designated, bringing to God the incense of grateful hearts, and not forgetting to share their abundance with the poor and needy around them.

In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand at the Executive Chamber in Indianapolis, this 13th day of November, 1865.

OLIVER P MORTON.

Attest: NELSON, TRUSSLER, Secretary of State.

Is there no Difference! The Cincinnati Enquirer says that those who advocate a repudiation of the rebel war debt by the Southern States, are acting with great inconsistency when they urge the payment of the Union war debt. It deliberately assumes the ground that the rebel States are morally as much bound to pay their debt, as the National government is to pay its obligations—that there is no principle upon which the rebel debts can be repudiated that would not, also result in a repudiation of the National debt contracted in putting down the rebellion. Such logic as this (if it be not naked villainy instead of logic) betrays a very great lack of discrimination or a great bluntness of moral perception; for the difference between the characters of the two debts is just as wide as the difference between right and wrong.

It is a universally recognized principle of law, of as long standing as any other in the science of jurisprudence, that obligations contracted to aid in obstructing the execution of the laws are void; and no court in the whole civilized world has ever yet recognized a debt of this kind as binding either in law or conscience.

The rebel State debts were contracted for an illegal purpose. This the Enquirer itself cannot deny—and when it maintains that these obligations are as binding on the citizens of the rebel States, as our war debt is on the Nation, it shows in a very strong light, either its want of good sense or want of honesty. Is the man who obligates himself to pay for the commission of crime as much bound to pay the debt as the one who obligates himself to pay for a horse or a farm? To so contend is to aim at the overthrow of legal rules as old as civilization—rules whose soundness has never for once, been even called in question by any one noted for legal acumen and honesty of

purpose. Besides, those who loaned their money to the rebel States, knew when they loaned it, that it would never be paid, unless the independence of those States should be acknowledged. It was really a part of the contract, implied it not positively stipulated, that the debts would never be paid if the rebellion should fail. Every man who bought the bonds of those States, know this as well as he knew he was loaning the money. The efforts of the Copperhead party to so identify these debts—the national war debt and the rebel war debt—as to insure the payment of both or the repudiation of both, will mislead but few. The honest yeomanry of the country, we trust, have a much keener appreciation of right and wrong, than the Copperhead leaders suppose. The people will be able to understand that the man who loans his money to traitors to aid them in overthrowing a government without cause or the shadow of cause therefor, takes the risk of losing it in case of a failure, and that the attempt to link such debts with the honest debts of the nation, incurred in upholding the

Constitution and the laws,

is to assume that there is no difference between treason and fidelity. The Enquirer will find it is building on a very sandy foundation.

Servility.

This word is defined as follows:— "Mean submission; baseness; slavishness; slavish deference," &c. We know of no word in the English language that better describes the following from the Democratic central organ at Indianapolis: "It [the Democratic party] will not support the unjust, revolutionary proposition of changing the Constitution of our fathers, so as to apportion representation in Congress upon voters, let it be advanced by whom it may, both because it is wickedly unjust to the Southern States, is a sinister mode of forcing them to adopt negro suffrage, and would be injurious in its influence upon the action of all the States, leading them to a race in that indiscriminate extension of suffrage which would make all elections in future, as they have been the last four years, farcic or tragic mobs."

Such sneaking, truckling, bowing, cringing, and beggarly servility towards Southern slaveholders, was a common thing with Northern doughfaces before the war; but we had reason of late, to hope that it would not be again revived. It seems, however, that even the terrible war through which we have just passed, with its many valuable lessons, has not sufficed to whip out of Judge Perkins, the editor of the central organ, the idea that a Southern rebel is so much better than he, or any other Northern man. that the rebel ought to have two votes to the Northern man's one.

What reason can any man give, why South Carolina with 50,000 voters, should have six Representatives in Congress, while Maine, with a voting population of 100,000, has only six?— The 50,000 gentlemen (?) in South Carolina wield just as much power in Congress as the 100,000 lumbermen of Maine, and the "central organ" says this is all right—the Democratic party will not support the proposition to amend the Constitution, basing representation in Congress on the number of voters instead of population as now. This would be putting a South Carolina gentleman, who wears kid gloves, a standing collar, and gold buttons, upon an equality with a Maine lumberman with his ax and saw—and such, says the central organ, "would be wickedly unjust" to the Southern gentleman. We have seen a servile, cringing, dependent dog, look up pleasingly in his owner's face, and wag his tail with doggish delight, when about to receive a bone; but it is a more doggish dog than common that will do so when the owner is so poor he has not even a bone for himself. Disinterested servility is found nowhere but in a Northern Democrat.

The Indianapolis Herald says that "Daniel Webster, if living, would have been a Democrat." Assuming that Daniel understood the term Democrat, as did his great name-sake, Noah Webster, L. L. D., we think the Herald is right. Noah's "Big" Dictionary on page 317, reads as follows: "Democrat: one who adheres to a government by the people, or favors the exten sion of the right of suffrage to all classes of men." Who doubts that Daniel Webster, if living, would be a Democrat?

A large lot of Miscellaneous Books, among which are the very latest publications, are being received at Foote & Thomson's.

Indianapolis Correspondence.

INDIANAPOLIS, NOV. 18, 1865.

ED. JOURNAL:—Both Houses of the General Assembly convened last Monday, at 2 o'clock P. M.. The House of Representatives continued the organization of last winter.

The Governor delivered his message to a joint convention of both Houses, at 10 1/2 o'clock Tuesday morning, in a clear and forcible style, notwithstanding his bad health. I will not say much of its merits, as your readers will have an opportunity to judge for themselves; but I consider it a very important document. The House ordered 15,000 copies to be printed; it will be ready for circulation in a few days, and a copy of it should be in the hands of every citizen. It was listened to with marked attention, and was greeted with applause at the close.

The Governor's health is much impaired in consequence of long and arduous labors, and a temporary suspension of business is necessary to restoration. He leaves on a tour to Europe in a few days. He sent in a farewell message to the House yesterday evening, preparatory to leaving. The House passed concurrent resolutions of sympathy and respect addressed to him, in answer to his communication. Lieutenant-Governor Baker left his seat in the Senate on Thursday, to attend to the Executive duties, in Gov. Morton's absence, and the Seuate chose Mr. Dunning Chairman, pro tem.

There is much important business to be done this session; whether it will all be done remains to be told at the close of the session; but if we continue as we have begun, most if not all important business will be finished up.— The House resumed business where it was left off at the close of the regular session, consequently the unfinished business of the regular session will have to be disposed of, before that for which this session was called can be

reached. A joint resolution to amend the Constitution, by expunging the 13th Article, is the special order for next Tuesday; and a Bill to admit the testimony of negroes in courts of justice, is the special order for next Wednesday. It is my opinion that there will not be much debate on either of them. I think they will pass the House, but what the result will be in the Senate cannot now be determined.

Hon. George W. Julian addressed a large audience last night in the Representatives Hall. He is a fine speaker, and the address was received with frequent outbursts of applause.

Harmony so far prevails between the two parties, in both Houses; and it is very desirable that it should continue, as it will expedite business much.

Yours, S. GREGORY. P. S. Gov. Morton leaves this morning for Washington, preparatory to his departure for Europe. His physicians consider his recovery doubtful, but they have recommended a temporary suspension of his arduous duties, and a tour to Europe as necessary to his recovery. No doubt every loyal heart in Indiana will be filled with sorrow, on account of his afflictions; and no doubt the prayer of every loyal heart will be for his recovery and speedy return. S. G.

Concert and Ball.

It will be seen by reference to a card printed in another part of to-day's Journal, that our German fellow-citizens propose giving a grand entertainment, i. e. Concert and Ball, at McClelland's Hall, this city, on Christmas night, coming.— Citizens generally are cordially invited to attend. Arrangements are being made for one of the grandest entertainments of the season. In dancing and music the Germans are par-excellent.— "On with the dance."

The Needy.

It will be seen from the proceedings of a meeting held at the Court House on Tuesday evening, that an organization has been effected for the relief of the suffering and needy of this city during the approaching winter. The farmer, as well as the citizen of town, is invited to give of his abundance, namely: wood, or produce of any kind. Anything towards relieving the wants of the destitute and helpless will be gladly received by the committee, and judiciously applied.

Personal.

We are highly pleased to learn that our fellowtownsman, Dr. T. W. FRY, who has been confined to a sick bed at New Albany, Indiana, for the past seven or eight weeks, has so far recovered his health as to enable him to return home. He arrived on Saturday evening last. May he be speedily restored to perfect health; and his life lengthened out to frosty old age.

Foote & Thomson have received quite a lot of new goods, as you will find by looking in at the "Corner Book Store."

The Copperheads are making a

great ado over the execution of Wirz. We are not surprised. Every time such a scoundrel is hung, they lose a voter.

The Legislature and Temperance. ED. JOURNAL:—While the people of the several counties of the State are moving on the subject of a temperance law, we of old Montgomery ought not to be idle. All good men should join with one voice against this giant and growing evil. Saloon keepers and some of their political parasites will resist this as a matter of course. The latter also will, if possible, give it a political turn, and by party feeling, lead many good men into an opposition to this much needed reform. It is high time, however, that moral men, christian men, should lay aside all partisan spirit and present a bold and solid front against this crying sin.

The object of the present article is not to argue this question, but to appeal to all lovers of order and moral improvement to send up their names to the Legislature, asking at least that before any one engages in the sale of intoxicating drinks, he shall obtain the sanction of a majority of the voters of the township or city wherein he proposes to sell.

Such petitions are going up to our present Legislature until it is stirring the "trade," and the saloon keepers are to have a convention at Indianapolis on Friday next, for the purpose of influencing that body against the passage of such a law. I have no doubt when they array all their forces, both behind and before the counter, they will be heard.

Just what that convention will be to the spectator I will not undertake to guess; but if I was an artist, or a limner, I should not fail to be on the ground with camera, or easel, brush and canvas.

Petitions are in circulation; let the friends throughout the county be active and send up soon, a long list of names. TEMPERANCE ADVOCATE.

Auction Sales.

The auction sales of J. H. Dodd & Co., which opened on Tuesday of last week, at the auction rooms of our 'fat' friend Wm. P. Ramey, on Greene street, we notice, is still progressing; and will probably be continued up to Saturday next, inclusive. "Ike" Schooler, the gifted, never-failing auctioneer, will ased to meet you---call in

For new Corn Meal, you should go to the family Grocery store of R. E. Bryant, No. 4, Commercial Block. He is selling at 65 cents per bushel.

New Stock of Groceries. Mr. J. H. Benefiel, of the Green street Grocery Store, has just returned from the East, whither he went for the purchase of a fresh stock. The new stock---which is full and complete —we notice, is now being received. Mr. B. buys nothing but first-class goods, and allows no house in the market to undersell him.

Real Estate Agency.

The attention of those wishing to purchase real estate, is called to the list of property advertised by Sappenfield & Brother, under the above heading. They have on sale some very desirable property. The 16 acre lot mentioned is particularly inviting ; and taking into consideration its location, remarkably cheap.

Hood—-Again.

The special attention of our readers is called to the advertisement of John A. Hood, to be found elsewhere in to-day's issue. If you want something specially superb—for ladies or gentlemen— in the line of boots or shoes, you need go no further than Hood's. His goods are first-class and no mistake.

Wasson Corner.

W. N. Wasson, of the new brick corner, we notice, is now in daily receipt of his fall and winter stock of staple and fancy Dry Goods. His stock of Dress Goods, Cloths, Cassimeres, &c., &c., can not be excelled in the market. His stock of Ladies' Furs, are particularly attractive. The farming community in looking for new and desirable goods, cheap, should not fail to call on Wasson. He buys no second-class articles. Read new advertisement.

For fear that the choice goods for the holidays might all be taken, Foote & Thomson have already provided a good supply, and you had better see that you are not too late. Call soon, before the goods are culled and you have to take something you really do not want.

Gentlemen, don't fail to secure, while you can, one of those superb Fur Mufflers and a pair of those splendid Beaver Gauntlets, which are to be had at Campbell, Galey & Harter's. Fortified with them, the cold of winter may be defied.

A splendid assortment of Ladies' Purses, Writing Desks and Port Folios, at the "Corner Book Store." *

Gentlemen wanting a good suit of clothes, will find it to their advantage to look at a lot of very choice styles of Cassimeres, Vestings and Cloths, which were received by Campbell, Galey & Harter, this week.

No. 1 Commercial Block. Vance of Commercial Row, No. 1, Corner of Green & Market streets, is receiving a fine stock of Furs, at prices ranging from $8 to $25. This is as good, if not the best, stock of Furs in the city, being about fifty sets of different kinds. Go and see them.

He is also receiving other goods, among which are hats, full stock of all wool cassimeres, prints, ticking, bleached and brown muslins, Jeans, notions,

Relief Meeting.

At a meeting of the citizens of Crawfordsville, held in the Court House, on Tuesday evening, Nov, 21st, John W. Blair was called to the chair and T. S. Martin appointed secretary.

The chairman stated the object of the meeting to be to devise means for the relief of the needy of the city.

On motion of Dr. May, a committee of one from each ward, consisting of James Heaton, Meredith Roundtree and Joel Guthrie, was appointed to act as a permanent executive committee, to distribute to the needy such donations as they may receive.

On motion of Col. S. C. Willson, Saturday, Dec. 2d, was designated as a day to receive wood and other supplies from the Farmers of the county.

An Advantage Derived from our Protective Tariff. The high and almost prohibitory duty on French brandies, has stimulated the wine dealers of Ohio to produce from their prolific vineyards, Catawba Brandy, possessing all the fine qualities of European importations, thereby making us independent of the foreign market. This brandy is made by a careful distillation of the Catawba grape, after extracting the fine flavored wine, making it the very essence of the grape, and its purity perfect. It is undefiled by any foreign substance.

Druggists and physicians should always be supplied with this choice stimulant, as no other brandy will be purchased by the people hereafter.

The finest article of Catawba Brandy is made by C. W. Roback, Cincinnati. [nov1m.

DYSPEPSIA.— What everybody says must be true. We have heard Dr. Strickland's Tonic spoken of so frequently by those who have been benefitted by it, that at last we are compelled to make it known to the public that we really believe it effects a cure in every case; therefore, we say to those who are suffering with Dyspepsia or Nervous Debility, to go to their Druggists and get a bottle of Dr. Strickland's Tonic.

A VOICE FROM VICKSBURG. VICKSBURG, Miss., Aug. 9, 1863. Dr. John Bull—Dear Sir: I am happy to state to you that I have used your valuable Cedron Bitters with great benefit to myself, in general debility and prostration of my system produced by the unhealthy and miasmatic influence of the Mis sissippi river around Vicksburg, having been with Gen. Grant's army through its whole southern campaign. I confidently recommend its use to all persons who are exposed to unhealthy climates. H. W. FOGLE,

On the 23d of July last, I submitted, through an agent of mine, to the Medical Director of the Department of the Army of the Cumberland, a sample of my Cedron Bitters, for inspection, and requested if, after analysis, he found it meritorious, to sanction and approve its use among our soldiers. The following is the Medical Director's reply, and also Gen. Rosecrans' permission to ship 300 dozen at once, to have it sold to sutlers.

JOHN BULL.
