of anguish which no human hand can dispsl,
binding 1t in chains Of woe which despair can
not break, I recommend, and earnestly be-
seech, that on Tuesday next, all the residents
of Lawrence abstain from their avocations and
labors; that they set apart that day as one Of
prayer; that they then get In their respective
places Of worship, to join in those religious
ceremonies which the occasion demands, and
there publicly ask of God that He would tenn
per our afllotion with mercy; that He would
restore to health those now languishing in
pain and suffering; that He would provide
with Fathers care for the orphan and widow;
that He would comfort and support those be-
reft of husband and wife, parents and chill
drep; that He would 30 order this signal de-
struction Of life and property as that good may
como out of our great evil, and that our ex-
perience may teach wisdom throughout the
