THE STATE OF CHIC,

COLUMBUS, October 25, 1852.
The time. honored custom adopted by TN
fathers of our State, Of setting apart one %!
in each year for praise, Thanksgiving and praye
to Almighty God, for His goodness and mere!
TO Us as a people, should be preserved. Es
pecially at time like the present, should al
good citizens unite in laying aside the ordinary
business of life, at least for day, and devote
themselves to the teachings of their Maker.
The effort made by the legally constituted
authorities of the land, to put down the wicked
rebellion against tho Federal Government, th'
bes. ever enjoyed by any people, In which estor
the gallant cons of Ohio have borne 90 CON
spicuOus and proud part, has filled every
nslghborhosd with mourning. Our brave sol'
diers are yet exposed to the dangers OF the field
of battle, and to the hardshlps and sickness Of
camp life; and, our system Of government, 10
form after Code own laws, and so gentle that
its reins were scarcely felt by the governed, is
yet in peril.
Our Heavenly Father can console the dis
tressed, and heal the SORROWS of the mothers
and widows heart; He can protect from danger
our patriotic soldiers now in the Aeld; He can
psralyze the arm of the enemy Of our good gov
ernment:
Nov, therefore, 10 obedience 90 the request

and to the end that simultaneous petition to
Him may ascend to Heaven from all parts Of
our State, do hereby fx upon, and set apart,

TO Almighty God. And do recommend, that.
aba.alaing from all business pursuits, the good
and pure.minded people of our State, meet to-
gether at their usual places of worship, and
with one voice, humbly ask the God Of all ma
tions to emile upon the distressed of our land;
that He give wisdom and purity to those in au-
thcrity: that He prostrate the enemies Of our
Government. and that, in all things, He give
such wisdom to all the people Of the earth, as
will enable them TO conform to His laws, to the
end that peace and good will shall prevail
throughout the world.
In witness whereof, have heFeunto set my
hand and affixed the Great Seal Of the State

How John Brown Saved the Capital.

The Washington correspondent of 1he
Boston Journal tells the following singu
lar story OF the way in which John
Browns lawless raid into Virginia became
the remote cause of the salvation of the
Federal capital
"When the marines dashed up to the
door of the engine house, where Virginia
Chivalry quailed, they seized not only
John Brown but quantity of powder
wthio the building, which he had brous ht
from Pennsylvania. After Brown and
his party were secured, the powder was
placed in one of the brick buildings,
where it rem aimed till April last. When
the United States troops found that the
Virginia forces were preparing to make a
descent upon the ferry for the purpose Of
capturing the arms, they looked about for
ammunition. They did not dare to visit
the magazine. for there we're sharp eJes
which watched every movement. and an
atte npt to take powder from there would
precipitate an attack Then it was that
John Browns powder was valuable. 1t
was in suall packages, and where it could
be taken aud distributed unbeknowD to
any outsiders. 1t was placed 10 the diff,
ferent buildings, the trains were laid, and
just as the Virginians thought the prize
was theirs. they found that the flames
we're ahead of them. 1t was designed
that the several Thousand stand of arps
there stored should be distributed in Bal
timore, where. as you know, the outbreak
i'm uediately occurred, and that thence o
descent would be made upon Washing
ton. So John Browns powder saved the
capital. All of this will appear. l % in

report of the committee appointed to in-
7estigate the Harper's S Ferry affair.

other, from New York. which will in re

The Effect

Of the action of our Government, in sur
rendering to England's protection the person
pf Mason and SIidell is already seen in tn,
tone of the Southern press, and is premon
ished by the tenor ofthe English press receiv
ed by the last steamer from Europe. The
fact Of their release had not yet reached Eng
land, and yet English journals, that were a
first luud in their proiestations that nothing
remained but war between the two coun-
tles,- are now unsparing in their hopes
that the United States would yield the point
demanded, and thus preserve peace. As We
predicted, however, the Southern rebels are
mourning over our acquiescense in English
demands. They call US ak sorts of hard
names, and include n their budget of billings
gate blackguardism, President Lincoln, the
Army, the Congress, and the whole North
ern people. They had hoped much from our
stubbornness-thinking that we, like them
selves, were so jolly green as not to know
when We were well of, more especially
""Dn yi0'oiiiS INT punt hOulu Oe Oul the
rendering "unto Cesar the things which were
Cesar's." They felt sure that we would
hold to the act of our Commodore even if war
with England, and probably France. were
the consequence. and thus open the way for
Confederate recognition abroad and Confed-
crate treaties offensive and defensive. against
US. But they reckoned without their hosts.
The head strong Hotspurs-those uneasy dev-
Ills who were always getting US into difficulty
with the rest of the world--broke from the
Union at the first beck of Secession. and for
the treatment of a question of right between
man and man, and nation and nation, left in
power the cool, calm and just brain of the
North. The result is that Disappointment
greets the rebels at the very moment they
thought they had every thing their own way
and to-day, instead ofrejoicing over the arrest
OF Mason q Slidel, as they did few DAYS a.
go, they are mourning and cursing the day
that such men were born. In the action ofl
our government they see the handwriting on
the wall which pronounces the dismal doom
of failure on all their most cherished hopes
and instead of g glorious Confederacy in the
future, with power, and place, and wealth 10
satisfy the maws of their leading dema gogues.
they see nothing for themselves but ruin on
The one hand, and subserviency to the Con-
'titution and Laws on the other. So let it
be and continue to be.
