A Day Of Fa.tInr and Prayer.

Governor Grape. of Michigan. whose
name by the by, has had but Injustice
from the telegraph, the papers spelling it
in all ann of ways from " Crops" to
HCrabbe, has issued a proclamation ap-
pointing Thursday, April 18th, as a day
of fasting and prayer. After rehearsing
the dangers to which the nation is still
exposed, even after scattering to the
winds the armed hosts Of Treason, and
the present peril of the nation from the
unhappy course of some of its rulers be
says: Let US seek, then, the Divine aid,
"tc subdue our pride-to surrender our
"wills-to abandon our prejudices, and to
reconstruct the Republic upon the broad
principles Of Right, of Humanity, Jus
"tice and Eternal Truth; when all men,
Irrespective of caste or color, shall be
"equal in the eyes of the law. Then may
ave expect that not only our prayers and
"supplieations, but our tribute of thanks
Hgiving and praise will ascend like sweet
q incense unto Him who is not only the
"huler OF men, but OF the Universe and
who is no "respecter of persons, but in
"every nation he that feareth God and
a worketh righteousness is accepted with
/" Him"
HLet US also remember that the Fast
which shall make this an acceptable day
"to the Lord, aFsst which He has chosen,
is "to loose the hands of w-ickedness, to
undo the heavy burdens, to let the OPP
oppressed go free to break every yoke, to
deal thy bread to the hungry, and when
thou seest the naked that thou cover
Hhim.n
The Democracy, who never love days Of
fasting, much less days of prayer, were
terribly exercised over this proclamation.
which they denounce as blasphemous and
terrible. They are calling meetings ali
over the State to oppose it, and announce
their intention, by way of exhibiting their
cOntemptf for the Governor, to celebrate the
designated day as a holiday. How much
they will gain by this course We are not
yet informed.

The following is the valedictory address
of Hon. Peter Hitchcock, of Geauga
county, Speaker pro tenn. of the Ohio
House at its adjournment on Friday:
Gentlemen Of the House Of Representa-
tires: 1 canEot suffer the resolution
agreed to by the House on yesterday, in
which you were SO kind as to connect nv
name with that of my friend and our
worthy presiding officer, to go upon the
records unnoticed by me.
Well aware that the very fsttering
manner in which it was presented, and
the very great unanimity, accompanied
with evident marks of appreciation with
which it was adopted, were not primarily
intended for me, 1 yet feel that no wrong
is done in appropriating a part thereof to
myself.
am conscious that in the official dis
charge of duty as a temporary presiding
officer in this body l have, through care
lessness and haste, committed frequent
errors, the occurrence of which has not
been oftener noticed by any one than my
self. This u%nanimity c%onvinces me that
you have very c~haritably attributed this to
nothing else but desire to aid in the rapid
and satisfactory disposition of business.
Accepting it thus, I return to you my
sincere and heartfelt acknowledgement
for this expression of your confidence and
friendship. It ONE to me one of those
plessurable incidents not to be forgotten
for a lifetime. Daily associated together
as we have been, in the consideration of
the same subjects and with similar pur-
rNpena "a aAnnvnD1Tsh ho- rnsr1.ol -, -
ing personal interest in each other, such
as is formed in equal degree, during the
same period of time, in no other sssoci-
alton of men in the stirring drama of life.
Links have been formed in our several
chains of friendship which death alone
can sever. In looking back upon all our
past intercourse, I can think of nothing
which ought to, or will leave in the breast
of either Of US, as we separate to pursue
diverging pathway in life, the least
embittered feeling. We met here three /
moRths since almost total strangers. We
part to-day intimate acquaintances aud
personal friends. Here we came together
inexperienced in the duties we were to
perform, and with only this prominent
qualification, an earnest purpose to do
what we might be able, for the interests
of the State, and of our various localities.
part to day better than ever
acquainted with our State, its wants and
its resources-with its various localities
and the feeling of its people. Life spared,
we hope to meet at the opening ofanother
year, here to renew that intercourse which
has been so pleasant and with quickened
and ripened experience to engage
legislating with still greater efficiency
IN reference to all which tends to advance
interests of our common constituency,
The people of Ohio.
Without OBTAINING you longer, and with
he kindest wishes for your safe and speedy
-eturn to expectant friends, to waiting
md happy families, to satisfied constitu-
'ncies, and for your future prosperity and
happiness, permit me, gentlemen, to say

mo German Conatct.

The dffculty between the Prussian
ministry and parliament which we ex-
planned IN xrecent article, is dwsrfed by a
quarrel between Prussia and Austria over
the Duchy of Schles g-HOlstein.
These duchies having been taken away
from the King of Denmark by the COM
bined military efforts of Prussia and Aus
tria, and Austrian soldiers having shed
their blood ss freely as those of Prussia in
efecting this annexation, the Hapsburg
dynasty naturally disputes the claim of the
concern over rne way 70 an excfustvv-~
premAcy in these unfortunate Duchies.
Whatever sympathy was given in this
contest by the German people, was Law
isAed under the impression that the Ger
transporting portion of the duchies are
part and parcel of the great Fstherlsnd,
and it would seem that siuce they were
i~nsolently wrested from Denmark, moth
ing remained to be done to embody the
Duchies in The German Union under the
auspices Of the German Diet at Frank
fort and under the constitutional rule of
the Prince of A~ugustenburg. But Prussia
soon interviewed, under the guidance OF
the powerful Bismarck, and Is endeavor-
ing, in reality, although her ultimate OBJ
jec. is in part concealed by diplomatic
iudirections, TO mako the German Uulon
release its claim upon the conquered
Ducnies, and to assert its claims to the
entire control Of them.
The foreign powers have looked from
the outset with Indignation upon the
schemes of Prussia. The relationship of
the Prince of Wales and the King of
Denmark clashes in England, on this oc-
casion, with that of the Queen and her
other children, with Germany, and par
ticulary that of the Princess Royal, with
Prussia. For these and other reasons
England kept studiously aloof from the
conflict and Lord Clarendon is said to
have again declined to act as a mediator
between Prussia and Austria. In France
the aggressive policy Of Prussia has been
lately eloq1ently denounced by Jules
Favre in the Legislative body, while this
statesman repudiates at the same time all
traditional impressions in regard to Gallo
pretensions upon the Rhine. The En-
peror leans toward Austria. The lesser
powers are frightened and hardly dare
take either side. Meantime the people,
who suffer the result of war in conscrip-
tons and taxations, are quietly waiting.
Should War come Revolution may fol-
low; and amid the tilt of Aristocracies
Democracy may yet ride champion of the
tournament.
