The fust Thanksgiving was made by the 11 ebro tvs. After the Pilgrims lauded in 1G20, they had a Thanksgiving and invited their friends, (indians) Samoset, Squanto, and Massasoit to take dinner with them. They had roasted turkey and perhaps a deer. Thanksgiving is now appointed by the President. We spend Thanksgiving by going to Church, boys by hunting, and we all have turkey and other nico things to eat. We are thankful because Cod has let us live until wo saw Thanksgiving como again so wo eau have nice things and a nice day for rest. MATTH: VANDIVKK, Ago 0. Pk- _ When New England was iirst plant ed, the se'Mers met with many dillicul ties and hardships, as is necessarily tho ease when a civilized people attempt to colonize a wilderness. These settlers, being piously dispos ed, constantly sought relief froni.hoav en on frequent set days of fasting and prayer, which constant meditation of their dillieulties kept their minds gloomy and discontented. At length, w hen it was proposed in the assembly to proclaim another fast day, a farmer, of plain sense, rose and remarked that the trials which they had suffered were not so great as might have been expected, that tho earth was beginning to reward their labors, that tho rivers were full of tish, tho air sweet and tho climate wholesome; and that instead of appointing moro days on which to beg greater blessings from Cod, they should proclaim a day for thanks. His ad vice was taken; and from that day to this there has been sutlicient prosperi ty to warrant thanks. During tho Re volution a Thanksgiving Day was an nually appointed by Congress; but af ter the general Thanksgiving for peace in 1784, there was no National appoint ment until President Washington re commended a day of thanks in 1781), on account of the adopting of tho Con stitution. There have been days for Thanksgivingproelainied several times afterwards by different State authori ties, but tho nation as a whole adopted this day no sooner than 1870. Custom has fixed the tinto for the last Thurs day in November. LKI.AND YASS, Jit., Ago 1G. Wild Hog Items. Mr. Almond Gumbrell and sisters have been on a visit to Reed Creek, lia.
