Preaching TO Ministers.

The last Warren Gogperhead has a half
column of advice to ministers of the gus
pei, as TO how they should deport them
selves. II is opposed to the reverend gen
rlemen denouncing political licentious-
ness. Thinks a minister's mission is to
preach generAliiies and attend funerals.
but they should never mix politics with
religion. We are not surprised at the
narrow spirit of the CePperksad. That
concern well knows that It's kind of poll
tics would disgrace and ruin the ministry.
and has no higher conception of politics
than 10 suppose hat it consists of the
contemplate poltroonery snd un~blushing
villainy that distinguishes apprehension.
OF course such politics would be unfit for
4 prsacher of the gospel. But the poor
copperheads have no right to judge of
other mems privileges from their desrss
ded stand point. The Wdcrrsn Coppsrhead
may object as much and as virulently as
it pleases, to preachers mixing politics
with religion, but We feel assured that no
worthy minister can be found who will
object to the copperhesds mixing religion
with their politics. It is because minis
tiers insist that sound and safe political
principles are based on the teachings OF
christianity, that causes the reptiles to
hiss and dart their envenomed fangs in
imIotent rage. That's what's the matter
with the snakes in this locality.

The President Of the United States has
appointed the last Thursday in November
as a day of National Thanksgiving, as
will be seen by the following
PROCLAMATION.
II has pleased Almighty God to pro-
long u national life another year, de-
Tending us, with His guarding care,
against unfriendly designs from abroad,
and vouchsafed to US, in His mercy, many
and signal victories over the enemy, who
is of our own household. 1t has also
pleased our Heavenly Father to favor, as
well our citizens in their homes, as our
soldiers in their camps and our sailors on
the rivers and seas, with unusual health.
He has largely augmented u free popu-
lation by emancipation and by immigra-
ton, while He has opened to US new sour
ccs of wealth, and has crowned the labor
of our working men in every department
of industry with abundant reward
Moreover, he has been pleased to animate
and inspire our minds and hearts with
fortitude, courage and resolution ufh-
cient for the great trial of civil war into
which we have been brought by our ad-
herence, as a nation, to the cause of free.
dom and humanity, and TO afford TO US
reasonable hopes OF an ultimate and hap
py deliyerance from a~ll.our dangers and
zHictions.
Now, therefore. I. Abraham Lincoln,
President of the United States, do here.
by appoint and set apart the last Thurs
day IN November next, as a day which /
desire to be observed by all my fellow
citizens, wherever they'may then be, as a
day of thanksgiving and prayer to Al
mighty God, the bene6cent Creator and
Ruler of the universe: and | do further
recommend TO my fellow citizens afore-
said, that on that occasion they do rever-
entity humble themselves in the dust, and
from thence oRrrup penitent and fervent
prayers and supplica,ions to the Great
Dispnser of Events for a return of the
inesrimeble blessings of peace, union and
harmony throughout the land which has
pleased him to assign rs a dwelling place
for ourselves and our posterity through.
Out all generations.
In testimony whereof. l have hereuuto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States 10 he affixed. Done AT
the city of Washington, this Goth day
of October. in The year Of Our Lord
1864, and of the Independence of the
United States the eighty-ninlh.
