Yesterday, from many hundred pul
pita nom many thousand households
IRON millions OF hearts, asccndcd th,
voice, and, let us hope the sentiment
of prayer 10 the Throne Of tho Most
Mcrciiu. This moral contract with
Divinity, this communion with essence
that is perfect cannot but have cleans
cd some portion Of tho taint that
cings to erring humanity. a people
have offered their soul-tributc to the
Supreme Ruler of nationaliticsj they
have invoked tho blessings of Him
that ordains, "On earth, peace and
GOOD will TO men" These sacred
rites have boon performed while we
are in the midst Of havoc and destruc-
ton; tho hands that have been raised
in thankfnlncss and alteration are red
with the blood Of His creatures, born
in his image, and created to live in
harmony and fratcrnal concord. The
brows that have bowed in worship
have the mark that His Angel fixed
upon the forehead of the first murder,
err. The hearts that sought to be
sanctifed by humbleucss and piety,
have been for two long, cruel years
swelling with pride and passion, and
cankering with hatred, intolerance
and the lust of vengeance. 1t is not
those who are drawn. up in hostile ar.
ray and who sIay thoir fellow men
upon the actual battlefield, who are
guilty The necessities Of their posi-
tion, and the dclirium of the fight
absolve them from the great rcspon-
sibiity; but those who, in cold blood,
in council chambers, N churches, and
beneath their tranquil roofs, nurture
and sustain the sentiment Of animosi-
ty and vindictivencss, or partisan Bit
terness, or Of obstinate pride, or of
fanaticism, or of avarce and ambition,
that feeds this withering fire Of civil
stritc-with them the holy exercises
Of yesterday if not q mocllery and
sacrilcgo, must have wrought some
degree Of publication.
Let us hope, then that many who
in their relentless hearts have devoted
the people Of the South to eXtormina-
tion-many who have rcjoiccd at the
record of suffering and devastation
written among the ruins of Southern
homes-many who have not been APP
palled at the bloodstains that track
their path to power-many who see
not the spectrcs Of the slain, and hear
not the walls of the bereavcd, while
they count the profits that have ac-
crucd as their present share Of our
national misfortune, let us hope that
they have been inspired with but ever
SO little Of His mercy, forbcarance
and gentleness to whom they render
ed thanks.-N. Y. NeCS.

EXCHANGE OF PRISONERS.

The difficulty about the exchange of
prisoners grows almost wholly out of the
refusal, on the part of the rebels, to ex-
change the negro soldiers and their off
GERS Washington star.
The above is tho first intimation
we have seen from n Washington
journal Of the real cause of the diff
Guilty in relation to the exchange of
prisoners. Why the fact suppressed,
that our soldiers are suffering confine-
ment in Richmond, simply because
Jefferson Davis refuses to place them
on an equality with negroes, while
Mr. Lincoln demands that they shall
be? We can easily understand why
the Abolition journals would be anX
iOus to conceal this fact from the
friends and relations of the poor men
now undergoing the suffering of a
tedious imprisonment, but wig dc
Democratic journals suppress it? Our
neighbor, the JVorld, is noted for
finding fault with almost everything
that Mr.. Lincoln does, except carry.
ing on the war, that it goes in for
tooth and nail, but it has strangely
omitted to ventilate this subject as it
deserves. Are the Democratic Jour.
nails who support Mr. Lincoln's wal
policy, prepared to insist that Jetfer.
son Davis should give up the cardin.
al doctrine which the Democracy OF
the North stand on, that the negroes
arc not the equals of the white citi.
zenship? The last time that the
equality of negroes to citizenship was
presented TO the voters of the State OF
New York, they decided against it by
some 100000 majority. Do they asi,
Davis to admit that which they them.
selves spmn with contempt? Do
they propose to fight him into sub.
mission to the creed of Garrison and
Phillips? Above all are tho friends
and relatives of these men now suffer
ing from Imprisonment, prepared tc
see them pine and die far away from
home, simply because Mr.. Lincoln in
sists upon degrading them on a leve
with negroes, which Davis objects tC
and resistsI This is the exact stat,
OF the case, and we defy the whole
crowd of Abolition editors to gainsa,
or deny it, The momont Mr.. LincolI
admits that negroes are not tn,
equals of white men, every northern
prisoner now in the South can be rc
stored to liberty and home.-Da,
