NATIONAL: PAST.
A proclamatio‘n for a national fast on the
last Thursday in September has been signed
by the President. It is as follows:
A Proclamation.
By. the President of the U m‘ted States of Amer-
tea.
Whereas, A Joint Committee of both Hou-
ses of Congress has waited on the President
of the United States, and requested him to
recommend a , day of public Humiliation,
Prayer, and Fasting, to be observed by the
People of the United States with religious
soiemnities, : and the offering of fervent sup-
plicstions to Almighty God for the safety
andwelfaro of these States, His blessings on
their amend a speedy restoration ofpeace-
And whereas, Itis fit and becoming in al
people still times to acknowledge and re-
vere the ‘Supreme GOvernment of God, to
bow in humblegsubmissioii to His chastise-
ments, to confess and deplore their sins and
tranSgresssions in the full conviction that the
fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
and to pray with all fervency and eontrition
for the pardon of their past offences. and for
a blessing upon their present and prospecm’e
action; ' .
And whereas, When our beloved country,
once, by the blessing of God, united, prosper-
ous and happy, is now afflicted With faction
and civil war, it is peculiarly fit for “,5 to rec-
Ognize jibe hand of God in this Visitation,
and in sorrowful remembrance of our own
faults and crimes as it nation and as individ-
uals, to humble ourselves before Him, and to
pray for His mercy—to pray that we may be
spared further punishment, though justl de-
served; that our arms may be blesse and
made effectual for the re-establishment of
law, order, and peace throughout our coun-
try, and that the inestimable boon of civil
and religious liberty, earned under His gui-
dance and blessing by the labors and suffer-
ings of our fathers may be restore in its
original excellence. Therefore, I, BRA-
HAM LINCOLN, President of the United
States, do appoint the last Thursday in Sep-
tember next as a day of Humiliation, Prayer
and Fasting for all the people of the Nation,
and I do earnestly recommend to all the poo
ple, and especially to all Ministers and teach-
ers Of religion of all denominations, and to
all heads of families—to observe and keep
that day according to their several creeds
,. and modes of worship in all humility, and
With all religious solemnity, to the end that
the united prayer 'of the Nation may ascend
to the Throne of Grace, and bring down
plentiful blessing upon Our own country.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set
my. hand and caused the great seal Of the
United States to be affixed, this 12th day of
August, A. D. 1861, and of the Independence
of the United States of America the eighty-
sixth.
By the President:
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

Whereas, Such insurrection has since bro-
ken Out, and yet exists within the states Of

of soda. It is much better. Try it. Gro-

PARSON BROWNLOW NOT YET SnPPunssnb,
The suppression ofParson Brownlow’s Willy
at Knoxville, Tennessee, by order of the
rebel General Zollicoffer, seems to have been
an ineffectual attempt to silence the irrepres-
sible “person.” He finds opportunity to ex-
press his feelings thus:
“ ‘ BROWN Low CAN‘T GET AWAY.’-—Cer-
tain secessionists are boasting that we can’t
leave East Tennessee—that the Confederate
forces have us surrounded—s; don’t intend we
shall leave the country ! Such will be rather
astonished when we tell them that we don’t
want to leave—that we don’t intend to leave
.that we can neither be coaxed nor driven
out of the country—and we. are just where,
of another places, we desire to be, at home.
The difference between us and some of our
citizens, who_ are uttering these ‘loud swel-
ling words,’ is we stand by our principles
and dare_to defend them, while they, through
a truckhng spirit Of cowardice, from base
mercenary motives,& from a most disgraceful
anxiety to be with the party in power in the
State, hypocritically pretend to be what they
are not, and cry out for that which, in their
very hearts,they despise, loathe and condemn.
God deliver us from such a dog-like spirit of
submission tO-tyranny and its tools!”
, .»
WOn Friday a negro arrived in ourllnes
and was brought to Gen. Mansfield’s Office.
He is one of the celebrated negro regiment.
He fought at Bull Run, and made his es-
cape with a servant of Beauregard, after the
battle, and succedcd in reaching Point Of
Rocks after great privati on. He states that
a regiment of one thousand slaves were
brought from the Cotton States, and the per-
fection of their drill led to the organization
of two regiments of negroes from Southeas-
tern Viiginia. Before the battle they were
compelled to drill three hours a day, and for
several hours besides were put to work on
the entrenchinents. At night they were
penned up in the rear, and a strict guard
placed over them. The Virginia negroes
were nearly all anxious to escape, and would
do so when the opportunity occurred.—
Those from the Cotton States, however,were
fearful Of doing so, having been made to be
lieve that their lives would be in danger
among our troops.
—Some of the cannon they are ma king in
Falls Village carry a ball six miles.

Succnss IN LIFE—A man’s best help is in himself
——his own heart. his own soul, his own resolute
purpose. The battle cannot be fought by groxg'. A
man’s mind may be aroused by another— is esire
to improve and advance himself maybe excited by
another, but he must mould his own stuff, quarry
his own nature, make his own character l—let him
try again i Let him try hard—try often, and he
cannot fail ultimately to succeed. No man can tell
what he can do until he tries, and tries with resolu-
tion. Witness the success of Dns. HunmcK of
Albany—who fought poverty ten years but is now
called the autocrat of pill manufacturers.

ONEI’DA FALLS, Mad. Co.,N. Y.,

TO DR. HERRICK &
CU.—-—Gentlemen:
About one year ago,
your agent called up-
on me and desired
' I . should take
bcess in my right
ide, as large as a pint
bowl or larger than a
coconut. 1 had not
buttoned my vest with
any comfort for over a
of the best. physicians
,/
year. I had consulted some .
in the State, among which was Prof. Hamilton of
Buffalo, and many others, all of whom decided that
my disease would terminate fatally; that the abscess
would eventually break inwardly, and run my life
away. I was not able to laborpiiuch for two years,
and not liking to be idle, I commenced taking your
Pills. Soon after, the swelling commenced disap-
pearing, and finally appeared to point externally.—
I became alarmed, and sent for Dr. Spmgue, who
advised me to continue taking the Bills, as my care
was rapidly being completed I continued to use the
Pills in small doses for some months, and found
myself fully restored, the ulcer healed and I consid-
er myself a well man. The news of this cure soon
spread through this section, and more than} thou- ,
sand boxes of Herrick‘s Pills have sold in this vicin-
ity. My Post Office address is Oneida Valley, Madi-
son County, N. Y., where persons interested can
address me, by inclosing a stamp, and learn more
fully my sufferings and dangerous condition for
three long years. You may publish this letter if
you like, to assist the sick and advance your repu-
tation. Truly yours, 0. ‘

WORTHY OF ANY CONFIDENCE so:
Restoring the Bald and Gray.
Many, since the great discovery of Prof. Wood,
have attempted not only to imitate his Restorativ-
but rol’css to have discovered something that would
pro uce results identical; but they have come and
one, being carried away y the wonderful malts of
Prof. Wood’s preparation, and have been faced to
leave the field to its rcsistless sway. Read the fol-
iowmn':
a Bath, Maine, April 18th, 1859.
PROP. 0. J. WOOD .1; Co. ; Gents z—Tho letter I
wrote you in 1851' concerning your _ valuabln Hair
Restorative, and which you have published elwwhere
and in this vicinity, has given rise to numuons in-
quiries touching the facts in the case. The omuirieo
are, first, is it a fact of my habitatiun and name, as
stated in ihe communications; second, is it true of
all therein contained; third, does my hair still con-
tinue to be in good order and of natural cola? To
allI can and do invariably answer iyes. My hair is
even better than in any stage of life of 40 your) past,
more soft. thrifty and better colored; the name In
true of my whiskers, and the only cause wh it is not
generally true, is that the substance is was ad ofl‘b
i‘requentablution of the face, when if care '38 use
by wiping the face in close connection with tho whis-
kers. the same rcstlt will rollow as the hair. Ihave
been in the receipt ofa great number of lettas from
all parts of New England, asking me if m Inirstill
continues to be good; as there is so muc finndln
the manufacture and sale of various com .udo so
well as this, if has, no doubt, been basely imitated
and been used, not only without any good otict but
to absolute injury. 1 have not used any ofyorr Res
torntivc Oran y account for some months, and let my
. hair is as good as ever, and hundreds have on mined
it with surprise. as I am 61 years old and not a gray
hair in my head or on my face; and to prove this
fact I send you a lock of my hair taken of the past
week. I received your favor of two quart bottles
last summer, for which Iamwery grateful. I gave
it to my f‘rfinds and thereby induce them to try it,
many were skcpiical until after trying, and then pur-
chased and used it with universal success. I will
ask as as a favor that you send men test by which I
can discover fraud in the Restorative, sold by man ,
1 fear, without authotity from you. A pure artic e
will insure success, and I beltevc where good efl‘ectl
do not follow, the failure browsed by an impure ar-
ticle, which curses the inventor of the good. I deem
it my duty as heretofore, to keep you apprised of the
continued effect on my hair, as} assure all who in-
quire of me, my unshaken opinion Of its valuable re-
sults. I reinoin, dear sir, yours, »
Pnor. 0. J. Woon; Dear. Sin—I would certainly
be doing on a great injustice not to make known to
the worl . the wonderful as well as the unexpected
result I have experienced in using on bottle of
our Hair Restorative. After nsmg every kind of
Restorative extant, but Without success, and findin
my head nearly destitute of hair, I was finally in
duced to try a bottle of your Hair Restorative.—
Now, candor and justice compel me to announce to
whoever may read this, that 1 now possess a new
and beautiful growth of hair, which I prounce richer
and handsomer than the original was. I will there-
fore takc occasion to recommend this invaluable
remedy to ALL who may feel the necessit of it. Res~
pectf‘ully yours. REV. S. , ROCK.
