In the year which is now drawing to ite end, tlie art, the skill, and the labor of the people of the United States have been employed with greater diligence and vigor, and on broader fields than eVer before, and the fruits of tlie earth have been gathereil into tlie granary aud storehouse in mar velous abundance. Our highways have been lengthened, and new and prolific regions have been occupied. We are permitted to hope that long protracted political and sectional dissensions, at no distant day, will give place to returning harmony and fraternal affection throughout the Republic. Many foreign Suites have entered into liberal agreements with ns, while nations which are far off, and which heretofore have been unsocial and exclusive, have become our friends. The annual period of rest, which we have reached in health and tranquitity, and which is crowned with so many blessings, is by universal consent h cotivenieut and suitable oue for culti rating personal piety and practicing public devo tion. I, therefore, recommend that Thursday, the twenty-sixth day of November next, be set apart and observed by all the people of the United States as a day of public praise, thanksgiviug and prayer to the Almighty Creator and Divine Ruler' of the Universe, by whose ever watchful, mJrciftil and gracious providence alone States and Nations, uo less than families and individual men, do live and move ami have their being. In witness whereof I have hereunto eel my hand, and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. Done at the city of Washington, tlie twelfth day of October, in tho year of our Lord, [seal.] one thousand eight hundred and sixty eight, and of the independence of the United States the ninety-third.
