WHEREAS, The Senate of the United
States, devoutly recognizing the Suprel4e
Authority and just Government of AL
mighty God, in all the affairs of men and
nations, has, by a resolution, requested
the President to designate and set apart
day for national prayer and humilia-
ton:
AND WHEREAS, 1t is the duty of ma
pendence u pom the over-ruling power of
God, to confess their sins and transgres-
sions, in humble sorrow, yet with assured
hope that genuine repentance will lead
to mercy and pardon, and to recognize
the sublime truth, announced in the
Holy Scriptures and proven by all his
tory, that those nations only are blessed
whose God is the Lord
And insomuch as we know that, by
His divine law, nations, like individuals,
are subjected to punishments and chas-
tisements in this world, may we not
Justly fear that the awful calamity of
civil war, which now desolates tie land,
may be but punishment inflicted upon
us for our presumptuous sins, to the
needful end Of our national reformation
as whole People? We have been the
recipients of the choicest bounties of
Heaven We have been preserved, these
many years, i'll peace and prosperity
We have grown in numbers, wealth and
power as nc other nation has ever
grown. But we have forgotten God. We
have forgotten the gracious hand which
preserved US in peace, and multiplied
and enriched and strengthened u.s. and
we have vainly imagined, in the deceit
fulness of our hearts, that ali these bless
ings were produced by some superior
wisdom and virtue of our own. lntoxi-
Gated with unhroken success, we have
become too selfsutficient to feel the ne
cessity of redeeming and preserving
grace. too proud to pray to the God that
made usl
1t behooves us, then, to humble our
selves before the offended Power, to con-
feSs our national sins, and to pray for
clemency and forgiveness.
Now, therefore, in com mpliance with the
request, and fully concurring in the
views of the Senate, l do, by this my
proclamation, designate and set apart
Thursday, the Both of April, 1868, as a
6pRyeeff. ati4Rfll RaHBMpietjPp ftFSlipa an EAd
people to abstain on that day from their
ordinary secular pursuits, and to unite
at their several places of public worship
and their respective homes, in keeping
the day holy to the Lord, and devoted tc
the humble discharge of the religious
duties proper to that solemn occasion.
All this being done, in sincerity ant
truth, let us then rest humbly in the hope
authorized by the Divine teachings, tina
the united cry of the nation will be hearc
on high, and answered with blessings, nj
less than the pardon of our nationa
sins, and restoration of our now divide,
and suffering country to its former happ
condition Of unity and peace.
In witness whereof, | have hereunt
set my hand and caused the seal of tn
United States to be affixed.

EVANSVILLE, IND. MONDAY MORNING,

ors and officers of the Treasury Depart
ment have, since the commencement of
the war, progressed steadily with the ad-
vance line of our troops Mr. Thornbury
held his appointment as Surveyor at
Paducah, at the time it was occupied as
Federal Post, and has held it ever since.
And all this time he has acted under pos
tive. and emphatic instructions from
Secretary Chase The condition of the
people within his district, their wants,
desires, claims and loyalty, have each,
time and again, been represented to the
Treasury Department by Mr.. Thornbury,
and IN reply he has monthly received his
instructions. On the other hand, the
military department has been continual
y undergoing change, from General
Paine to Smith, and General Sherman,
COL Noble, Col. Oliey, Gen. Ransom,
and last Col. Daugherty Is it presuma-
Die that either one, or all of these gen.
tlemen, residents of but a day, could
discharge the delicate task of dealing
with the wants and necessities of de-
ceived people, with that satisfaction that
has been attendant upon so much of it
as has been left in the hands of Mr..
Thornbury? The earlier commanders
OF the Post did not assume the discharge
of this duty, and yet, was there ever any
complaint that the revenue law was de-
fectVe, and that the military law could
alone prevent frauds upon the Govern
ment?
This is question Of some importance,
and demands the attention of the War
and Treasury Departments AS the ma
ter now is, it is impossible, utterly so,
for Mr.. Thornbury to carry out the in
structions of Mr. Chase, ot March 18th,
1863
Col Daugherty aud Major Gibson act
IN obedience to instructions from Gen.
Asboth, at Columbus, kentucky. Gen.
Asboth proposes to act under orders
from Major General Grant. Whoever is
the author of the orders sought to be en-
forced upon the observance Of Mr.. Thorn
bury, it is very evident that they are, as
before stated, not only contrary to the
Revenue Laws, as made by Congress,
but in direct violation of the orders of
Gen. Grant, Gen. Wright, and Gen
Boyle, reasserting the supremacy of the
civil law in Kentucky j. w. II.
