MoRNiNG AND EVENING PRAYER MAY
take this occasion of speaking OF the great
Importance of this one solemn ordinance OF
religion, never to be forgotten wherever
we are-morning and evening prayer. Il
is the best means of reminding ourselves OF
the presence Of God. TO put ourselves In
His hands before we go forth on our Jour.
ney, on our pleasure, on our works; 10 CON.
NIT ourselves again TO Him before we retire
TO rest; this Is our best security Tor keeping
up our faith and trust IN Him ia whom We
profess to believe-whom we all expect to
meet after We leave this world II Is also
the best security for our leading q good
aud happy life. We
shall fud it thrice as difficult to fall into sin
if We have prayed against it that very
morning or if we thank God for having
kept US from it that very evening. Its
the best means Of gaining strength and re.
freshments, and courage, and self denial for
the day. II is the best means OF obtaining
content, and tranquility, and rest for the
night; 1t brings US, as nothing else can
bring Us, into the presence of Him who Is
the source of all those things, end who
gives them to those who truly and sincerely
ask for them. We may ask for them with !.
out caring 10 have them; but that is not
really asking. We may seek, but without
lifting up our little finger to get what w
seek that is not really seeking We may
knock, but so feebly and irresolutely that
no sound can be heard within or witout
that is not really to knock But ask dis.
tiactly aud with understanding; seek card.

GENERAL BANKS AND PRESIDENT LINCOLN
Some OF the republican papers say that Lin.
coin is TO blame for the disasters In the South
west, and that he ordered Banks there at the
iustieation of the cotton spectators. We think
that this Is very likely. Lincoln was certainly
10 blame for the Florida expedition and for
the useless raid of Fitzpatrick against Rich
,aoua, and very probably he ventilated another
az his little plans in the Red river sffair But,
fortunately, Lincoln has now abdicated in favor
OF Grant, as far as the military department
goes, and he will sbdicste entirely on The nth

A Few QuEEIEs.-What has become of the
Sanitary Commission? What are they doing
in these battles for the wounded soldiers
Where is the million Of dollars raised at the
late Sanitary Fair in this city. which our cit-
zens supposed was to be used to relieve the
sufferings Of our gallant soldiers? What has
become Of the four hundred thousand dollars
raised at the Brooklyn Fairs Where are the
hundreds Of thousands raised in Albany,
Rochester, Buffalo, Cincinnati and other i'm
portant points? We hear of private funds
being raised, physicians and supplies sent on
to relieve the suffering soldiers on the battle
field, but very little, if anything, from the
Sanitary Commission. This is the time for
them to apply the funds placed at their dis
posal. The emergency which the people
looked for when they poured out this large
fund is now at hand. The wounded now num-
Der tens of thousands, and are constantly in.
creasing under the active operations of our
armies and the gallant work being done by
General Grant Let the Sanitary Commission
come to the rescue and perform the work Of
charity needed In this crisis.
