alton, the people met at the Congregational
Church at O'Clock P. NJ on Thursday last,
for prayer and humiliation. Interesting re-
marks were made by Rev. J. A. Wells, Rev.
E. E. Lamb, and others, and fervent prayers
Were offered. Some of the prevailing ideas
were, that God is visiting US, principally for
the sin of oppression, which has so long been
in the South, and endorsed by them orth, and
with the Judgment brought upon us for this,
the nation may meet its just deserts for the
many other sins which have been committed
in our midst-for the doing away of these in
iquities, great sacrifice is called for, and must
be given. God is the controller of all events,
and it is meet that we trust all in His hands,
and wait upon Him continually-thatw we may
be prepared for the glories which may be re-
vealed hereafter.
FARMING.-The weather for some time
past has been favorable fer Spring work. Oats
are sowed, and preparations for corn planting
are being rapidly made. Wheat is looking
well, and the prospects generally are that
there will be year of abundance.
