their sphere Of Christian effort.
Though organizations essentially fndepend-

they did not neglect, nor have they failed to
derive advantage from generalization Of their

much interest was felt by the many friends Of
these Associations in General Convention at
the City Of New Orleans, composed Of dele

The troublous times that have fallen upon
the country, since rebels and traitors have
dcf1ed the power Of the Government, md
t1ampled upon the flag, have not spared even
the religious world. To-day delegates from
Northern Young Mems Christian ASSOCIATIONS
would be made neither very safe nor very
happy IN the City Of New Orleans.
The Young Mems Christian Association ..
New Orleans, however, have Just discoTeteo
paracea for these troubles, which tney may

Rebei patsnt Office is established. They are
anxfous. however, to introduce It extensively

Answering for one Young Mems Christian

banners in the field. One at least Is
flying over the heads OF Capt. Barker's
Chicago Dragoons. Will the New Orleans
brethren write and tell us when they see those
colors coming their way? for assuredly ne
think they have some such destination.
The 7. II. c. A. Of Chicago are absurd enough
to believe that they hare been blessed ahoye
the young men of other nations In the insti-
tuticns under which they hare been born and
reared. They recognize the advantages Of our
Government, our Constitution and our Laws,
and for the perpetuity Of these institutions
they have learned to pray. !: They meant what

"fayored land" "our glorious country"
and they think 1t worth preserving.~ They
We're among the: foremost to answer the
call Of the country. Some Of their most be-
loyed and cherished members are now In ac-
tive service in the field, and when they went,
the Association gave them banner, and bade
them defend it. They prayed on that occa-
sion, and prayed fervently, that this banner
should be carried On to victory.
The New Orleans brethren will find them.
