Thanksgiving and Prayer.

1t will be seen by reference to the P,oclama
ton of Gov. Bonham, published on another
column, that his E1cslency has appointed
Thursday, the fifth instant, as day OF Thanks
giving, Humiliation and Prayer. In view of
the threatened invasion OF our State by large
and formidable host Of the enemy, the appoint
ment is timely, and we hope the day will be gen.
orally observed throughout the State. After
the many signal instances OF Divine help and
protection which has been vouchsafed US since
the beginning Of this bloody war, no one ecu
question the wisdom OF appealing to Provdcn ce
in all cases OF national peril. We specially
commend the Proclamation to the attention Of
our readers.

The New York Times, of the 10Th, avow,
the conviction with reluctance that The French
Emperor has determined to open the South
ern ports 10y the first of April for the export of
cotton and that he will welcome rather than
dcprecate the war as the consequence of such
act. The tenor of the Moniteur, the general
tone OF the ministerial journals, aud the reccut-
ly changed language of the liberal press cont
b'ne, says the Times, to show that this Is the
policy which the French Emperor has resolved
to carry out. The National Intclligencer does
not share this conviction.
