Whsreas, the Senate Of the United States, de-

the President to designate and set apart day for
national prayer and humiliation and,
Whereasy it is the duty Of nations, as welfs as Of
men, to own their dependence upon the overruling
power Of God, to confess their sins and tangres-
sions in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that
genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon,
and to recognize the sublime truths announced in
the Holy Scriptures and proven BY all history, that
those nations only are blessed whose God is the
Lord: - =.
And, inasmuch as we know that by His divine
law nations, like individuals, are subjected to pun
shments and chastisements in this world, may we

choicest bounties Of heaven we have been prsserv

have grown in numbers, wealth, and power, as no
other nation has ever grown. But We have forgot
ten God ehave forgotten the gracious hand which
preserved us in peace and multiplied and enriched
and strengthened us and We have vsiily imagined,
in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all those
blessings were produced by some superior wisdom
and virtue of our own. Intoxicated with unbfuken
success, We have become too sslfsuf6cieat to feel
the necessity Of rtdeeming and preserving grace
too proud to pray to the God that made us 1

CONFEDERATE CURRENCY IN VIRG1y1A-4he Au-
ditor of Public Accounts in Virginia has publish
ed the following notice:
"Confederate States uon.interest-bearine notes
of the denomination Of, or over Eve dollars dated
and issued on and after the first day Of Apr, 1861
shall hereafter be receivable in payment of taxes
and other public dues to the State" :.
This, of course dscredits notes issued before the
lst of April, 1853, and thebtject is said to be to
aid the Confederate government in funding its debt;
but the inevitable effect will be to discredit all Con-
federate currency issued before the period mention
ed If North Carolina had done this, the Richmond
Enquirer and its echoes in this State would have
charged that a conflict" had been produced be-
tween the two governments, and that our State was
engaged in repudiating Confederate currency. But
Virginia has done it by law, and it is all right.

The House of Representatives at Richmond, on

by vote of 45.tosz. We lscaad this remit with
pleasure. It gives some earnest that the repfesen-
tatives Of the people are determined to restrain, to
.some extent the entertainments of the military:
IL That martial law, in the sense of an arbi-
trary SUSPENSION Of al the laws and civil jurisdIc
tions. cannot exist within the Confederate States.
III. Military martial law in any sense, il it can
exist within the Confederate States can exist only
BY virtue of legislative authority. =, 80 3,
iii. Military law Gor the government of the
orces is distinct from martial law and it is enacted
by Congress in pursuance of the Constitution
NV. Without martial law military commanders
may sometimes exert extraordinary powers at and
near tine places occupied by their trooI &, and may
be justified by The nature and necessities Of the
service, and therefore, by the laws authorizing the
employment of the forces; but they assume the
hazard Of responsibility according to known princ
Piles Of war.

Rev. R. J. GRAvEs.-There is no truth in the
report as published in the Progress of this City,
that the mind of this gentleman is affected or that
he was examined; in Hillsborough to ascertain
whether he was insane. The Editor of the Progress
has very promptly done Mr. Graves justice, and has
furnished him with. the name of the malicious or
thoughtless person who made the statement in that
paper. Mr.. Graves is, and has beer in the regular
discharge Of his pastoral duties and his mind is no
doubt as strong and clear it ever was His trial
IS expected to take place in Richmond, about the
10th of next month. 4 fair investigation is al he
asks; and such an Investigation will result, in our
opinion, in his triumphant acquittal.

Brigadier General Cooper, commanding
the troops at Columbus Ohio, has done hon
or to himself and the cause ofgood govern
ment by most striking rebuke to the RI
oters and burglars who broke into two
newspaper offices in Columbus a few nights
ago. On the day after the outrage he is
sued an order condemning in unconditional
terms the conduct of the civilians who
took part in it, and giving wholesome
warning to the soldiers who so far forgot
themselves as to violate the very object for
which arms were put in their hands, viz:
the maintenance ofthe laws. Gen. Cooper
declares that any future assault upon the
property or persons OF citizens by the SOL
diers will be punished by the ini1iction of
the severest penalties authorized and re-

Chippewa Chiefs in New York.

Major WEBB, OF Superior, and his
Chippewa Chiefs, were lionizing at the
Metropolitan Hotel, New York, Oh We'd
nesday last en- route for home. The Chip
pewas were presented with an address by
the medicine man, chief and colonel ofthe
tribe of Indians of Nova Scotia. The
Chippewa chiefs received their visitor
about O'Clock, and the ceremony of in
PRODUCING him to them was performed with
appropriate gravity and decorum by the
interpreters. Then ranging themselves
round the room, with equal gravity and at
tention listened to the address, of which
none of the party understood a single
word. The services of the interpreters
were again called for, and in due time the
dusky warriors of the West were informed
of the many nplimentary things said Of
them by the Nova Scotia Mic-Mac's. With
great elaboration, accompanied by the
never failing gravity of demeanor, one of
the Chippewa Chiefs made suitable res
ponse, which was afterwards reported into
the Mic-Mac vernacular.

Foreign Born Residents Subject to
Enrolment and Draft.

There is still good deal of anxiety
among our "inchoate citizens" to know
whether those who have simply declared
their intention to become citizens of the
United States are liable to draft under the
conscripton act'' of March Sd, 1861
We find from an official copy of the law
now before us, that they are. The first
section of the act sets forth that:
All able-bodied male citizens of the United
States, and persons Of foreign birth ~ho haze de-
clayed on ol.th their intention to become citizens,
* * * between the ages of twenty and
forty-fiye wears, * are hereby declared
to constitute the national forces, and shall be
liable to perform military duty in the service of
the United States when called out by the Pres-
dent of the United States for that purpose.
At one time the bill contained q clause
which limited the liability Of those who
had merely "declared their intentions, to
such as had exercised the elective franchise
in any State under the laws thereof, but
we do not find that clause in the official
publication of the law. 1t therefore ap-
pears that all persons of foreign birth, who
have declared on oath their intention to
become citizens, will be subject to enroll
ment and draft.
