BUSINESS MEMS PRAYER. MEETING AT SMITH
NlxoN's HALL.-The meeting yesterday
morning was opened by singing the 2I4th
hymn, and reading the parable of the "Prodi-
gal Son." recorded in the fifteenth chapter of
81. Luke.
Requests for prayers were presented, of
parents residing in Northern Indiana, for
their SON and the pastor of their church; of
gentleman present for young lady now
in this city, who had left her home and come
among strangers rather than compromise
her conscientious convictions of duty; also,
for one of the volunteers in the Zouave Com
pany, who, on leaving, had taken Testament
and Hymn-book out of his knapsack and ex-
pressed his intention to read them daily.
In addition to the above requests, prayer
was offered for our distracted country, and
for the President of the United States and
his advisers, that they might have that ''wis
dom from above that is first pure, then peace
able, gentle and easy to be entreated full of
mercy and good fruits, without partiality
and without hypocrisy" 1t was earnestly
supplicated that God would glorify his name
by establishing the Union, by strengthening
our cause in the right, and leading us, &C
cording to his own wise plans, to ultimate
success.
A speaker remarked upon the singular
fact that, while our nation was convulsed
with civil war, God was pouring out His
spirit in an unusual manner.
In attestation of this, he mentioned having
preached to an audience of $500 persons in
Philadelphia, a short time since, and to
other large congregations in that city and
New York.
Another thought the greatest danger, in
this time of trouble, was to be apprehended
from too great haste in reading the morn.
ing news. He recommended Christians,
first, to take their Bible and attend to their
devotions, and then they would find them
selves spiritually strengthened for whatever
might follow.
An incident was mentioned, showing the
influence which the published proceedings of
these meetings was exerting abroad.
Singing closed the exercises.

whether Honor hath no skill in surgery"
we can not say; but the Doctor declined the
compliment; whereupon the Committee in
sisted upon his acceptance thereof or his
written declination. The Doctor confessed
that he would accept but that, secretly,
there was a fair and tender flower, in the

and perish IN his absence; whereupen he in

Another IhvOcatlon 90 War.

TO hs Editors Of he Daily Press!
While the mass of men can render the
most efficient service in regular military
organization, under the control of a single
mind, experience has shown that men with
quick eyes and ears, nimble feet and steady
nerves who, like the undersigned, have
q seen service" on the "war path" in the
mountains the chapperel, and the ever
glades, can be useful in an independent
company.
If there are any such in this city, who,
able and willing TO arm themselves and
fight for fun, not pay, and are not in love
with their lives, gold, or woman, they can
find q chance for little recreation of that
kind during the dull times we are likely to
