THE DAY OF FASTING AND PRAYER.


His Exccllency the Governor Of Yer
mont has seen fit to appoint Thursday
April seventh, is day Of public fast
ing, humiliation and prayer, Us win be
seen on reference to the proclamation
repubhsbed in another column
In unison with the peryading spirit
Of this proclamation, we adopt the fol-
lowing language Of the hteHjgepcr
which comments with no undue earn
cstness on the present season Of sus-
pcnse in the movements Of our armies
rs "A Time toPray." While the coun-
try is providing a bountiful supply Of
material comforts for the eAigencies of
future conflict it is 10 be feared that
the interest in these matters so preoc-
clpies the minds of Christians even, as
to restrain prayer to God for that add
ed blessing, without which I'll our pre-
parations, howeycroXtmsi1eand costly,
avail nothing How carefully we all
ought to walk at such Il time asst his
when the most momentous events are
just before us We quote
The waning proportions Of the rebel
lion, the material prosperity, read on
seeming, Of the North, the success of
the Government IN securing both men
and money, the confidence that in the
end our superior resources must pre-
vail, all seem to have lossvued the in
ohnation of even Christian people to
call upon God. The arm of flesh has
loomed up So largely that attention ha,
been drawn away from the arm OF the
Most High Prayer for aurralers, and
soldiers and sailors, has become formal
and stereotyped. not springing from
a sense of utter dependence. Unnatural
~ has lost earnestncss, ioryor. and Inn
portunit}.
Yet it would seem Tint but little re-
Election is needed to SHOW that there is
still need for urgent supplication.
Granted that even at om present rate
Of progress the rebellion must. without
u miracle in its favor bcsubdued soon
er on later. still what fearful sacrifice
OF blood aud treasure isgoine ON. what
a Decentralization Of The REGIONS over
run by hostile armies what untold suf
ferlngs Of men, women, and children.
what a mountain Of debt piled M
month by month, what Il waste Of can
ital and labor! The preservation Of
the Union, and the removal of the ba1-
barous institution viii indeed be worth
all they shall or may cost butts itnot
worth while to entreat the Almighty
that the days Of conflict NAV be short
ened? He may, if He Secs fit cause the
struggle TO be PROLONGED FOR many
years. The desperation Of our foes
may enable them TO infict terrible
blows upon us One unsuccessful on-
terprise may defeat the pnns of n
whole campaign A very SIGHT inter
