Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Proclamations for Thanks Giving: Issued by the Continental Congress, Pres´t Washington, by the National and State Governments on the Peace of 1815, and by the Governors of New York Since the Introduction of the Custom; With Those of the Governors of the Several States in 1858 There is an official document, issued by Executive Authority, in accordance with a "time-honored custom," and for a purpose that appeals to the religious and moral sentiments of the people, which finds no place in our public records, and, committed annually to the newspaper press, is soon lost to the public generally, with the fleeting items of the current news. It contains no imperative order, and its observance is enforced by neither rewards nor penalties; but like a Herald of Peace, it invites us to lay aside the cares of life, and in good will towards all men and humble gratitude to the Benign Giver of All Blessings, to acknowledge with becoming reverence, and in a manner approved by our own consciences, our obligations for the many blessings of life.
