FAST DAY IN LoUIsylLLE.-The Courier is in
formed by gentleman from Louisville that the
day set apart by President Davis for fasting and
prayer, was quite generally observed by the South
ern rights citizens of that city. He saw process
sion of Sunday School children that day, and he
was quite surprised that they were notarrestedb by
the Yankee authorities there. Public service was
held in one of the churches, at which the Louis
vile Democrat was exceedingly indignant, and
gave vent to its rage in the following editorial
We are credibly informed thaton Friday last.
JEFF. Davis day set apart for fasting and prayer
one church in our city mustered a small cungrega-t
ton to offer up their prayers in behalf of the trail
tor and his cause. We have very little inclination
to crticise the devotional exercises Of any denom-
nation, and much less to envy the heart Of those
| who engage in the religious services asked by
Davis, in behalf OF his unholy and wicked schemes
| 1t looks like the verest mockery IN view OF the
rapine and murder committed by Davis followers,
wherever they have obtained power. When we
remember how men have been banished from their
homes, or thrown into prison for being loyal to the
! Government and obedient to the laws Of the coun-
| try in the South, is it not burning shame that
| there are those in this community, enjoying the
protection of the law and the benefits Of the Coy
ernment, who dehase their nature and insult their
Maker by appeals to his throne in behalf of those
| who are despoiling the land Their disloyalty is
| unquestionable. They are in the midst OF pence
able and law-abiding people-hence they are On
| disturbed. II ... 7@g
