THE REBELS PRAYING.-Intelligent
contrabands reaching Fredericksburg rep
resent the panic among the people OF
Richmond as very great. They state
among other things, that the prayers IN
the Baptist and Episcopal churches for
Jeff Davis and the Southern Confederacy
were omitted on Sunday, and prayers for
peace and mercy were substituted.

Ladies Of Pomeroy:-Having noticed
with feelings of pain, the great decrease
of numbers in attendance at theme
ings Of orr Soldiers Aid Society, have
concluded that few words of inquiry
as to the cause Of this, and of earnest
encouragement in the way of well doing,
might not seem amiss at the present
time. Why is it that our number, from.
80 to 40 and SO, has so soon dwindled
down to s, 12.and 16? Certainly we are
not lacking in that patriotic lese,ofcoun ;
try, which fires so warns1y the hearts of
our brave men, whe hayesprung to arms
by thousands, to suppress this wicked
and uncalled for rebellion. Some urge
that they have SO much sewing to do at
home, that they cannot tuke time to at
tend. What an eecusei Only think of
it; Ladies Have not our Fathers
Brothers, Husbands and Sons, left all
and everything near and dear to them on
earth, to fight for "Our Country" its
Laws, and its Liberties? What if a
aOhole army of little unmade dresses,
aprons, coats and pants accumulate
around US. Never mindl Go and se,o
for the Soldiers. What if little knees
and elbows do peep out uabidden; never
mind! Patch. them neatly, loyal Moth
ersrand go and seao for the Soldiers
The SICK, wounded and. dying Patriots
Of our land call loudly uponus for help,
and they must have it. We have duty

Harvest.


Harvesthas fairly commenced, and WI
are happy to learn that the labors Of tht
farmer are about to be crowned with
glorious reward We have made in
quiry from all parts Of the county, and
while there are individual instances oE
partial failure from weeyil, or other,
wise, the general report is. that ther,
will be, by far, the largest yield of wheat
ever produced in this county. This il
a most cheering announcement, While
famine is cleaning the land made desc,
late by the treason of its mad and am
bilious politicians, wherever loyalty has
bowed to +he majesty of law and the
sanctity of constitutional Government
peace has spread its mantle of security
over the people. and Providence has
crowned their labors with all the .profu-
sion of plenty. Let every heart be glad
and every voice give praise. And when;
the armed rebels are subdued, let us all
prepare, out of our abundant granaries,
to obey the injunction, "Ifthine enemy
hunger, feed him.
There will be hundreds of thousands,
if not even millions in the South, who
must be fed by US, or the unburied car
.casses of the famine struck wretches will
curse the land with pestilence. We
must feed them. The rebel leaders in:
tending to fly from the country if they
cannot conquer it, and seeing that they
cannot conquer, they have determined to
make it desolate before they go. Hence
the wanton destruction of the properts
upon which alone the people could have
subsisted. They we'll knew that we
would net let their miserable dupes die
of starvation, and hence, as they could
not get to US to destroy our property
they have destroyed that of the South.
knowing that they could reach ours
through our humanity, rather than see
them starve. Let us justify by our for
giyeness and benefcenee, the uneors
scious tribute the conspirators have pai5
to our higher civilization Let US the
feed the starving wretches, and thu
cheap Goals of fire upon their heads"

Stop That!


Gen Mcclellan has besun TO throw
, up intrenchments on the left wing,
which is evidently the beginning of a
siege. Fatigue parties are working,
day and night in the trenches, and no
doubt many a rebel sorrowfuily looks
down upon these vile earthworks which
threaten such terrible consequences. -
Letter from the Phi7a. Press.
| And why not employ all the aeelima-
ted LAX orefs who can be found and could
be impressed on the peninsula of Vir-
ginia? Every black man in Eastern
Virginia within our lines, should be in

and making an investment for his race
in the future. - Gin. Com.
We solemnly warn the Gin. CONNER
cial not to repeat such a suggestion
againi What! let acclimated negroes
dig the trenches for our soldiersl Be-
sides .'fring the Southern heart, what
will Nallandigham, and Cox, and -
and other conservative members of
Congress say? Why, Mr.. Commercial,
you are no better than an Abolitionist!
Mcclellan ought to suppress you at
once for the suggestion!
Only think of the enormity of the
thingl What did our Ohio boys volun-
teer for, but to dig trenches and catch
.niggers? And you would counsel the
violation of tie Constitution and the
oppression of our 'sSouthern brethren, :"
by allowing the negroes to dig tren ,hes :,
Monstrous! Why, sir! if your sfanati-
eaP' suggestion should be acted upon,
we would not warrant call quiet in
front of Richmond, for single month!
Suppose the negroes, who are perfectly
acelimated, should do the hard work.
Can't you see the consequences? The
volunteers would recover from their ex-
cessive fatigue-woald regain much of
their health in spite of the climate-the
hospitals would be half emptied, and
with the enemy in sight, how could
"quiet be maintained in front of Rich
mond2"
3 No, Mr.. Commercial The only way
to maintain quiet, is to catch the mig
gers and send them to their masters to
build rebel breastworks and dig rebel
trenches, while our soldiers are kept at
hard work. This will maintain "quiet, !"
and nothing else will. When our men
are "calmned down by work in the
trenches under a Southern sun, and
further soothed by the scented breezes
Of Southern swamps, they will not, by
their impatientimpetuousity disturb the
;aquiet" which is so cheeringly tele-
grapired every day from Richmond. 1t
is true, the rebels may break the 'tquiet"
by an attack; but, in that case, aee will
not be responsible for it, and if Cur
volunteers can get out of the trenches,
and exchange their spades for their
emuskets" before they are butehered, !,
they will, without doubt, repulse the
unmanncrly disturbers of the ''quiet be-
fore Richmond for we don't believe
our boys can be conquered. although

confidence will make it impossible for
