UJ'The following is the Act of Congress SIS
requesting the President to recommend a day
of public humiliation, prayer and fasting
about the observance of which, in a proper
and customary manner, we have heard of so
much dcmurIing among certain Diyines,
who find it repugnant to their Christian
consciences to pray for the success of their
countTy's arms against a causeless rebellion.
By the following Act it will be seen that the
appointment of Thursday, nert, as a day of
Fasting and Prayer, was done in accordance
with request of the Congress of the United
States, and is, therefore, not one of "Lncoln's
violations of the Constitution" And those
Divines who reverse the sacred injunction,
pray for your enemies" may feel some
what relieved to find that this request for their
prayers is not an lmpromptu one of the arch
enemy Abraham, of their first love, the COT
ton conspiracy of Davis & Co., and, therefore,
their twingcs of conscience may be somewhat
less acute:
Resolred By the Senate and House of
Representatives. q the Dnhed States OF Ameri-
ca IN Congress assembled, That a Joint COM
mittce of both Houses wait on the President
of the United States and request that he
recommend a day of public humiliation,
prayer, and fasting, to be observed by the
people Of the United States with religious
solemnty, and the Offering of fervent suppl
cations to Almighty God for the safety and
welfare of these States, his blessings on their
arms, and speedy restoration of peace.

Our Candidates,

The action of the Convention in nominating
the ticket which stands at the head Of this
column, must be a source of qualification to
the Union men Of the county, and tend to
strengthen their confidence in the integrity
and vigor of the Union movement.
OF the merits Of the respective candidates
it is almost work Of supcrerogation to say
anything. Two Of the gentlemen on the
delegate ticket: CREswELL and MCINTYRE, are
known to everybody; their colleague, Mr..
MORTON, though not so extensively acquainted
In the upper part of the county, has for many
intelligent and best informed citizens while
his patriotism, tirmness and energy, qualities
which he possesses in an eminent degree,
mark him emphatcally as man for the times.
With these gentlemen as our representatives
in the House of Delegates, Cecil will once
more take the position to which she is
entitled in view of her loyalty and intelligence.
The candidates for County Commissioners,
Messrs. GRUBB, PAIKE and BoULDEN. are all
men Of the strlctcst integrity and the first
order of business capacity. Mr.. BouLDEN
was on a former occasion member of the
Board Of County Commissioners, and has,
therefore, very great advantages on account
of his experience. Mr. PARKE is we II known,
is one of the proprietors of the Elk Iron
Works, and a gentleman of rare personal
qualities. MIR. CRUDE is the youngest man
on the ticket, and probably least known in the
lower part Of the county. But we venture to
say, from our personal knowledge, that he
has not his superior, as an upright and clear
headed business man, in the county.
or Mr.. CosGRovE, our candidate for Sheriff,
it is no derogation to the emincntly loyal and
capable men who were his opponents in the
convention, to say, that better selection
could not have been made. He will see the
people during the canvass, and they must
like him; so we can afford to let E Ii pass.
JACK is the present Surveyor, and will have
no opposition. Indeed, we are not sure but
our g Peace" friends will yield to the
memorable logic Of the one thousand Union
majority which Cecil is sure to give, and
seeing the fitness eff the ticket we have made
give it their cordial support.

" Preachers and Patriotism" some exceptions
have been taken by our friends for not
exemptng by special reference, the two
Presbyterian ministers Of this county, who
are loyal to the Government, the Revs. Jas.
McIntire, and Dewitt. These ministers not
having pastoral charges were not embraced
within the scope Of our remarks, and conse-
quently are not placed under the ban of an
unjust charge. We hope our friends will be
satisfied with this explanation as we feel

loyalty these friends express so much anxious
