Before its adjournment, Congress passed
Joint resoi ution requesting the President
to appoint day Of fasting, humiliation
and prayer" This is eminently fit in view
of the condition of affairs, and we trust
that when the day is appointed it will be
faithfully observed by all claiming to be
christians, Not in the spirit Of hate and
uncharitableness, not with blood>thirsty
imprecatious upon all with whom we difer'
not in self.confdenee or in the spirit Of
dictation to Almighty God, should our
prayers ascend, but humbly and reverently
relying alone upon His wisdom and in sub,
ordination to His will should we ask that
our country may be rescued from the per-
lis that environ it aud be permitted to
stand again in her former place among the
nations of the world. Since this war com
menced we have heard uttered, by profess
ed ministers of the gospel of peace, prayers
malignant and blood-thirsty enough in
both sentiment and expression to chill the
whole congregation with horror. We
have heard prayers full Of partisan bigotry
and rage, prayers impeaching the wisdom Of
the Being to whom they were addressed
prescribing, even in terms OF insolence,
the course be should pursue. We have seen
men who professed to place confidence in
the wisdom of God who did not hesitate tc
saw that if He did not bring their wishes
to pass, if He permitted the Southern re-
bellon to succeed, if slavery was not de
stroyed, they would lose all faith in Hi
power. There are men in every neighbor
hood so demented by the fanaticism o
these times that, while breathing ou
threatenings and slaughter" against thei
fellow>men, impiously claim to be superior
in wisdom even to their Creator and de
nounce Him as wrong when He ills to exc
cute their will
The growing infdelity ftbe times which
is the natvral result of the spirit of fanati
cism, demands not one day but many day.
of fasting and prayer for its eradication
Intolerance and bigotry have vitiated mos
of the supplicatiohs which have been offer
ed up for our country during the past three
years. Let us hope that the next day
which the President shall appoint ma!
mark the beginning of an era of humilit!
and love and that when we pray "Forgiv'
us our trcspasses as aoe forgice those 'oh'
trcspass against as" we may invoke bless
ing rather than malediction upon on
