Holidays.
There is no national holiday, not even the Fourth of July. Congress has at various times ap- pointed special holidays. In the second session of the Fifty-third Congress it passed an act making Labor Day a public holiday in the District of Columbia, and it has recognized the existence of certain days as holidays, for commercial purposes; but, with the exception named, there is no general statute on the subject. The proclamation of the president designating a day of thanksgiving only makes it a .. legal holiday in those States which provide by law for it.

* The Democratic party of to-day claims lineal descent from the first Republican party, and President Jefferson as its founder.
t Political parties were disorganized at the time of the election of John Quincy Adams. He claimed to be a Republican, but his doctrines were decidedly Federalistic. The opposition to his administration took the name of Democrats, and elected Andrew Jackson President.
State Nomenclature, Etc.
Alabama. Takes its name from its principal river, and is supposed to mean "here we rest," which words are the motto of the State.
