National Fast Day.

WASHINGTON, Friday, January 4.
The National Fast Day was observed with
more than Sabbath solemnity. There were di-
vine services in the various churches and the Hall
of the Representatives was crowded TO hear an
address by Chaplain Stockton on the present
state of the Union.
NEW YORK. Friday, January 4.
The National Fast Day was observed in this
city by almost cessation of business, and other
wise i'm the most becoming manner. Nearly all
the churches were open and well attended, and in
most instances crowded.
In Brooklyn the day generally observed.
At Mr.. Beecher's an immense congregation was
convened and Rev. Mr.. Cuyler officated.
In Jersey City the day was also generally OBJ
served.
PETERSBURG, Va, Friday, January4.
Business in this city to-day was universally
suspended and churches all thronged with people
and it is decidedly the most solemn day ever wit
messed iu the history of Petersburg.
At Richmond the day is being duly observed;
many of the discourses delivered were very elo
quent and powerful all of them earnestly invoked
the interposition of Divine Providence i'm the
present difficulties, but expressed devotion to the
South, and while war was deeply TO be depored
it necessary to prepare for it for our own

This poor creature has gotten back to Washing.
ton City, from recent visit to his wife in Murfrecs-
boro, N. c., where the authorities kept sharp eye
on him, and he is believed to be responsible for the
Infamous and ridiculous fasehoods contained in the
following article, published in the National Repub-
licon Lincolns organ in that city. Should he show
his face in North Carolina again, let him be dealt
with right:
North Carolina has in the service four or five
regiments, only, of which two are in what is called
camp of instruction" at Weldon They are we'll
armed from the spos of the United States arsenal,
at Fayetteville but ignorant undisciplined insub-
ordinate and whisky drinking.
Nobody in North Carolina is allowed to be for
the Union, or even neutral, under penalty of DEATH
The most absurd lies are told and believed Our
informant himself heard Kenneth Rayner saw in a
speech, that it the intention of the abolition
lists in power at Washington" to kill every body in
the South, man, woman and child, white and black,
and then divide up the lands among the poor, by
whom the North is overrun.''
