Through the kindness of Surgeon
WILLIAMS, of the 121st Regiment, we
have received pamphlet copy of a Fast
Day Sermon, delivered at MilIedgevilIe.
Ga, Dec. 10, 1864, by Rev. S. II. Higgins,
D. D., and published at the request of
the members of the General Assembly of
Georgia. The Rev, gentleman confesses
that the Confederacy is under cloud,
but has no doubt the Lord is on their
side. Thus believing, he has great faith
in the efficacy of prayer to bring light out
of darkness, and urges the slave drivers
and their followers to unite as one man in
supplicating the throne of mercy for aid
in this day of their sore calamity
He says:
What we want is the interference of
the moral government and power of God
in our behalf: then let us humbly, but
boldly ask for that interference. Speak
to Him that rideth in the heavens What
we want God to say, directly and imme-
diately to our enemies is, Hitherto thou
hast come-but from this time, nc farther
Then ask Him. Speak to Him that
rideth in the heavens. What we want
God to do, is to confound all his devices
Our skies have been brighter than
they are to-day; but we may reasonably
suppose that they will not always be as
dark and lowering as they now are
There was time when a whole frma-
ment of blue was directly over us, when
the very body of heaven was visible in
its clearness something of this has faded
out, and now angry winds are sweeping
the sky.
'The day of sad reverses-of surren-
dered forts---of beleaguered coasts---of
blockaded and isular position, will not
last always---these things will have an
end. By a limitation of Providence,
which weighs out to every man and to ev-
cry nation the good and the evil of this
life, there cometh an end to all this; and
so we may hope that even to this night,
there will arise bright and glorious to-
morrow"
Our forces having entered the city and
raised the flag over the State House a
few days after the sermon was delivered,
it is manifest the prayer that our progress
southward should be staid was unavailing
and as the victorious army swept on al
most unopposed to the coast, it may fair
ly be inferred that the "brightand glorious
tomorrow" predicted. has not yet dawn
ed upon rebeldom.

DELAWARE Co. BRANCH BANK.-At
a meeting of the Stockholders of the
Delaware County Branch State Bank of
Ohio, held Tuesday, Sd inst, Messrs. Ho-
sea Williams, Benz. Powers, VIM. D.
Helm, John Wolfey, Sidney Moore, jr.,
were elected Directors to serve the cur
rent year. The period at which the char
ter expires is rapidly approaching, in
view of which fact resolution was pass
ed authorizing the Directors to take the
necessary action at their discretion to
close up its affairs. The institution has
always been well and faithfully managed,
has fully subserved the purposes of its
creation, and has deservedly occupied a
high position as a solvent and reliable
corporation. We learn that application
has been made by number of persons,
embracing the principal stockholders OF
the present institution, for authority to
establish National Bank which will fill
its place after it ceases to exist.

ARMY CORRESPONDENCE regu-
lar correspondent with Sherman's army
favors US with graphic account of the
march of our gallant army from Atlanta
to the coast He is close observer and
racy writer, and his letters are always
highly interesting.
We have also received from our tai
ented young friend LAWRENCE GREN-
NAN, of the 20th, very interesting COM
munication on the same subject. As a
correspondent well remarks, there is
something interesting in the story of ev-
cry witness of great event, for besides
each ones special experience, each has
his own method of relating it, hence all
accounts of such an event as the march
referred to, must necessarily be interest
ing, especially so when, as in the cases of
our correspondents, they come from and
speak of the part acted by friends and
acquaintances. 1t will appear in our
next issue.

'C.n such things be.


Il matters not sir, that such things are done
in the name of the United States or that they
are done by the authority of the president, cali
ing himself "the executive government of the
United States" The government of Loui,i-
ana, thus created. is none the less government
of usurpaiion. One object of the bill before Us
is TO recognize this usurped government based
upon void military decree and we cannon re-
cogn1e the government, without recognizing the

clared imperative and void the constitution and
laws OF Louisiana in regard to slavery. BY what
right or Dretense Of nigh; was this done Was
it because slavery and martial law in q free
country are altogether incompatible" as declared
by Gen Hunter in his proclamation Of emanci-
patton of Nav O. s62'
Not so; for on the 18th day of May, 1852, that
proclamation was declared void BY President
Lincoln. who permitted both martial law and
slavery. however incompatible. 10 continue to-

Of that date, but j; is to be noted specially ex-
copied from TINS Proclamation certain parts OF
Louisiana, including the city of New Orleans,
where both slavery and martial law were then
existing together.
Now the whole argument for the emancipation
edict has been military necessity. Ii was, as is
said, measure deemed proper BY the president
TO subdue the enemy The fact Ofthe exception
of New Orleans and other parts Of Louisiana
from the operation Of the edict is an admission
