A PRAYER AND ITS ANSWER The
Bangor Wing states that Captain Wy
man, of this city, of the 9th Maine re-
giment, recently returned from captivity
in q rebel prison bringing with him q
bright young colored boy, who had be-
come much attached to him Soonsafter
arriving, Captain W. was taken sick
with typhoid fever, and reduced very
low. At the crisis Of the disease be fell
into profound slumher, and the attend
ing physician declared that there must
be 3 speedy change, one way or the
other--although the chances were that
be would die. The boy was in the room
at the time, and heard tho decision
Soon after he left the room. In short
time one of the family had occasion to
go to the stable, and while there heard
the voice of some one apparently in
earnest supplication Listening to the
words, be found it was the boy, praying
for his masters life. "Oh Massa God, =
he said, ''please come aud save Massa
Wyman-and il yon can't leave de war,
send somebody quick" The disease did
indeed take q favorable turn, and the
patient rapidly recovered.-Kennebeek

General Lee and the Christian Com.
mission.

The attention of the friends of the
Christian Commission, who may have
been surprised at some statements made
public BY q newspaper correspondent
relating to delegation Of the Commis-
sion visiting General Lee, at his resi-
dence a. Richmond, is called to the fact,
that no Officer, or ageRt, or delegation
of the Commission, or any authorized
party, has erer called upon General Lee.
If any volunteer delegate Of the Com
mission, temporarily in Richmond, has,
under the pressure of an idle curiosity.
so far forgotten his propriety as to sup
pose that duty, or the privileges accorded
BY the Commission, would take him to
General Lees house, he has acted en-
tirely on his own account, and under an
utter Misrepresentation OF the work for
which be was sent to the army, and his
conduct is as severely rePreheRded by the
ComasissioA as by any loyal heart in the
country. GEORGE ID. STUART,
