our manifold sins, supplcating HIS gra-

voutly rendering thanks for the many and great
blessings wlsllk He has youchsafed to us.
Let the hearts Of our people turn contritely and
trustfully unto God let us recognize in His cha
stening hand the correction Of Father, and SUBJ
mssively pray that the trials and suferings which
have So long borne heavily upon us may be turned
away By His .mercifa1 love; that His sustaining
grace be given to our people, and His divine wisdom
impaired to our rulers that the Lord of Hosts will
be with our armies, and fight for us against our
enemies; AND thatH will graeiolsiy take our cause
into His own hand and nercifully establish for
lasting Just and honorable peace and independence.
And let US not forget to render unto His holy

stood for moment SO entirely exhausted as
to be unable to speak.
He has great newsP exclaimed Mr..
Lang.
Presently the pilot gasping for breath,
whispered intelhgibly-Peacel peacel
The gentlemen lost their breath as fast
as the pilot gained his. Directly the pilot
was able to say:
l. San English sloop is below with news Of
a treaty of peacer
They cay that Mr.. Lang exclaimed iu

The windows flew up-for families lived
there then. No sooner were the inmates
sure of the sweet sound Of peace than the
windows began to glow with Brilliant illu-
limitations. The cry Of PEACE! PEAcE
spread through the city at the top Of all
Voices. No one stopped to inquire about
'trec trade or sailors rights No one in
quired whether even the national honor had
been preserved. The matters by which
the politicians had irritated the nation. into

A CARD OF THANKs.--If we were, last
year, under many obligations to our
worthy County Commissioners for their
readiness in giviAg us possession of the
Court House room, therein to hold the
FIRST Isrelitish Confirmation, in this
city, we are nov under far greater obi.
cations to our worthy Mayor, Mr.. WA.
Baker, and to the honorable gentlemen
of the City Council, who, with friendly
complaisance, granted our request to
hold Religious meetings at the Crescent
City Engine House" until our new
Synagogue can be use for that purpose.
Really, without this act of humanity, on
the part of those who are comparatively
strangers, one Of our co-religionists, and
q member Of our congregation at that,
would not havs cared If the Synagogue,
and the emblems thereof, had been
thrown into the streets, and, an insti-
luts, in which, from 80 to 90 pupils re-
ceiye daily, instructions in three Ian.
guages, had been left to its fate.
While We return our most heartfelt
thanks to our city officials, We viev, with
indignatiou,l such an act Of q member
against his own congregation.
