A correspondent of the National IntelIi-
gencer writing from Florida, gives an Incl
dent in relation to a prayer offered by re-
quest during drought, by venerable
preacher who bore no good will to the bap-
lists. His prayer was somewhat remarka-
BILE for its unselfish tone, and ran in this
wise:
Let it rain, beginning at my plantation,
in Hamilton county, coming down to the
religious neighborhoods of Columbia and
Nassau, where immersion is not practiced,
and reaching Black Creek-even Black

What the War has Done.

st. Louis paper in discoursing upon this
topic, asks:
What do we see here in St. Louis A
complete blockade Of all trade, not for any
crime committed by us--not for ANYTHING
the people of Illinois, or Iowa, or Missouri.
or Kansas, or Minnesota, may have done
disloyal to the Union-but blockade which
Furnishes us, under the foolish and ridiculous
idea, that lit may do some harm to the re-
voting States. All trade is at an end and
as a consequence the products of the farm
are no longer of value, and with the immense
crop which God, more mindful of US than
we have been of ourselves, has given US, we
are almost doomed to see it rot in the fields
for the want of means to garner it, or of
market, after it has been saved What man
is there, in either of our neighboring States,
who can hope to get fifty cents for his wheat,
or ten cents bushei for his corn, or like
value for the products of his farm? How
are they to pay onerous debts contracted in
more prosperous times, with such prices as
the reward of their labor? But the calam-
ity is not confined to the farmer. They are
likely to suffer most intensely, but still they
have at command meat and bread, and the
necessaries of life, for they raise them all.
They may not starve. But it is far different
with those who live in cities and towns, and
who depend upon their daily labor for the
support of themselves and families. What
has become of the great steamboat interest,
once our boast and main reliance, and which,
with capital of many millions Of dollars,
gave employment directly and indirectly, to
fifth of the population of st. Louis? Gone,
all gone.

BEAUTIFUL ILLusTRATIoN.-Af florist will
tell you that if you paint the flower-pot that
contains fayorite, beautiful, fragrant flower
the plant will wither, and perhaps its bios
som will die. You shut out the air and
moisture from passing through the earth to
the roots, and your paint itself is poisonous.
Just So mere external cultivation, superb
cial, worldly accomplishment, or too exclu-
sive regard and anxiety for that which in
Ijures the soul. The vase may be ever so
beautifully ornamented, but if you deny the
water of life to the flower, it must die. And
there are kinds of ornamental accomplish
ments, the very process of which is as dele
ferrous to the soul as the paint upon the
fower-pot is pernicious to the plant; whose
delicate leaves not only inhale a poisonous
atmosphere during your very process of rem
dering the exterior more tasteful, but the
whole earth is dried and devoid of nourish-
ment. Nature never paints, but all her
forms of loneliness are growth, native
character, possession and development from
the beginning. If the sun can ever be call
cd painter, it is only because the plants
absorb his rays, and receive them into the
very texture and life of their vegetation.
So, whatever is real knowledge, wisdom,
principle, character and life in education, is
a process of the absorption and Development
Of truth, and is not mere Wanting.
