No one remedy is louder called for by tho

Good Advice fron j. w. EOrney

1t is now shown more coDcluslvely than
it has ever been shown before, that the
heart of the Democratic masses palpita-
ted for STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS, and among
the most gratifying recollections of the
great deceased is the fact that he was
warmly and unalterably for the Unicn and
the most stringent mears to preserve IT..
Thousands who voted for the Fusion
ticket in this State, from attachment to
party traditions and party organisations,
will now see the error they have commit
ted And especially will they see the
Breckenridge element strike hands with
the enemies of the nation. In this war,
the Democla ic masses occupy proud
and patriotic position La its manage
ment, the friends of DOUGLAS are active
and unpretending. MCCLELLAN was a
warm friend of DOUGLAS, and would have
preferred him for the Presidency. Ii be-
comes the friends Of DOUGLAS to carry
their patriotism further. 1t becomes them
to see to it that, in the management of
the coming political canvas, they are not
cajoled or entrapped into an alliance with
the Disunion sympathizers who have con-
trolled the Democratic organization and
seek to continue It's masters. No friend
| of DOUGLAS can ever Ce true to himself
and to the memory Of his great leader and
join with those who have slaughtered lin
in cold blood. We speak to the honest,
the patriotic Democrats, when we say
that they can show their honesty and pat
riotism by placing themselves upon the
platform of the Uuion, and by making
confidence in the Administration and a
support of its war measures a test of fealty
and fellowship. 1t must be done. If
the Administration falls, the Union falls
wih 1t; and, as ace ualuc the Union, are
must support the administrator. Not
bllndly, not as slaves, but with freedom,
frankness, and MISUNDERSTANDING
it when wrong, aud defending it when
right. This is the issue which every man
must meet, and whoever falters or plays
falsely, is traitor. We speak in plain
language, for the hour demands plainness
of speach. While our brave and gallant
men are dying abroad, there must be no
conspiracy at bone. We must sustain
those good and gallant men by a united
and overwhelming public sentiment. We
must show them that applause IF millions
follows the success of their arms, that the
sympathy of millions attends them in dis
aster, that the tears of millions fall upon
their honorable graves While they crush
treason in the field, zee must crush treason
at the ballot 6or.

one means, why not forsake the partlzan
and become the patriot? No one wants
you to join the Republican party. They
wouldn't have you! No one wants you
to become proselyte to the devilishness
of bolitionism," or the "treason of Re-
pubIicanism." We are we'll aware that,
in case the entire Democratic party Of the
North united with the Southern hordes
under Jeff. Davis, it would prolong the
struggle, make it more bitter, ruin our
country, and perhaps give it into the hands
of foreign enemy. We do not fear this
the masses of the Democratic party in the
North, with such men as Daniel s. Dick
inson and John w Forney at their head,
will never forsake their allegiance to the
Old Flag that has protected them-never
suffer the Magma Charta of their liberties
to be rent in sunder, either by Southern
rebels or by those at home who are only
too cowardly to avow their real sentiments.
The love of liberty is too strongly entwined
within the mountain Businesses of the
North for any miasmic vapor of secession
ism ever to stiAe it. We are free now
and, so help US God, we will remain free
or die in our tracks. If we fall, if we fail,
if our country is lost, woe, woe, to those
of our own household who have lifted up
their hands against US.

proclamation by the President.


WHEREAS, A joint committee of both
Houses of Congress has waited on the
President of the United States, and re-
quested him to recommend day of pub
lie humiliation, prayer, and fasting, to be
observed by the people of the United
States with religious solemnities, and the
offering of fervent supplications to Al
mighty God for the safety and welfare of
these States, his blessings OH their arms,
and speedy restoration to peace; and,
whereas, it is fit and becoming in all peo-
pie, at all times to acknowledge and re
we're the Supreme Government of God,
to bow in humble submission to His chas-
tisements, to confess and deplore their
sins and transgressions, in the full con-
viction that the fear Of the Lord is the
beginning of wisdom, aud to pray with
all fervency and contrition for the pardon
Of their past offences and for blessing
upon their present and prospective ac-
tiors; and whereas, when our beloved
country, once, by the blessing Of God,
united, prosperous, and happy, is now
afflicted with factious and civil war, it is
peculiarly fit for US to recognize the hand
| of God in this visitation and sorrowful
remembrance of cur own faults and crimes,
as nation and as individuals, to humble
ourselves before Him and to pray for His
mercy; to pray that we may be spared
further punishment, though most justly
deserved; that our arms may be blessed
and made effectual for establishment
of law, order, and peace throughout our
country, and that the inestimable boon
of civil and religious liberty, earned under
His guidance and blessing by the labors
and suffrages of our fathers, may be re-
stored in Tits original excellency. There
fore |, Abraham Lincoln, President of the
United States, do appoint the last Thurs
day in September next as day of humi-
liation, p; aver, and fasting for all the peo,
pie of the nation, and I do earnestly re-
commend to the people, and especially to
all ministers aud teachers of religion, of
all denominations, to all heads of families,
to observe and keep that day according
to their several creeds and modes of wor-
ship in all humility, and with all religious
solemnity, to the end that the united
prayer of the nation may ascend to the
Throne OF Grace and bring down plenti-
full blessings upon our country.
In testimony whereof, &c.
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
