Nevada County Official Proge. = (MYURSDAY MORNING, APRIL 30 oak al pay tei ae we hain Tue Untow Leacue.—The signs are that the Union League meeting of Wednesday evening next at this plice will be a rouser. Men have’ signified their intentions. to come from all parte of the county to inaugurate the mdvement properly ut the county seat. It is well. ‘The country has need of such move_ ments everywhere. We need an organization of Union men in this county, because, for one reason, it is now well understood _ there are men belonging. tothe order of the Golden Circle in our midst who_ would uo: scruplé to raise an insurrection if but 9, far. . . opportunity should offer. « i One good evidence that the Union League. movement is working well. is the denuncia+ tion it. receives from the secession journals of the State. They are loud in their protestations against,what they call, these migchieVous associations. Thé truth is, these Union Leagues more than neutralize the desigra of the secret secession societies which have ramifications in every part of the Union.— They have a wholesome, counteracting influence, and should be countenanced and encouraged everywhere. ~ -Let no one deceive himself that our State is perfectly safe from civil war. ‘The pirate Chapman was fitted out iu our port, hundreds of men have left for Dixie, but there are thousands more of the same stripe beThe treacherous clement in _our. State, from every county, probably, contributed to put the Chapman upon the waters to prey upon the commerce of the nation, and murder, if need be. iii the name of the Slave Confederacy. A bonded traitor a few days since held forth iayour Agsembly bull toa large audi-ence, and ladies (7) threw boqueta at his feet while uttering his treasonable doctrines. In any other country in the world that sower of sedition would be sent to the dungeon in leas time than it takes to utter his obnexious doctrines. If we*are not disposed to follow the practice of other goverumenis in defending themselves, at least, we may by secret, oathxbound associations be prepared to resist any more dangerous exhibition of secession spite than treasousble language. There will be, we are assured, 9 noble gathering of patriotic spirits at the Theatre . un Wednesday evening next. Let everybody, who feels for the country, be present, and. become an earnest member of the Union ~ League. ene TT Girne FEEDING ON THE ENEMY.—The best and most convincing lesson as to the duty of our army when occupying the enemy’s country, may be derived from the fact, that where we have had Generals who foraged on the enemy, levied contributions on them, and seemed intent on self preservatiqn, those Generals have maintained themselves in the enemy's coyntry, Gene. Butler, Blunt, . Curtis, and others, are instances in point.— On the other hand, those Generale who have talked of constitutional rights of rebels, of wonquering by mild blows, and not maddening the insurgents, have miserably failed. i a a THERE will be four regiments of the colored chivalry raised in Philadelphia, according to the Press, which says that about two thousand have already been raised, and only await the proper formalities from the War Department to be organized into companies. The colored people of that city have raised sixty thousand dollars towards equipping these regiments. Aen Tue Nexr Conaress.—The New York Evening Post calculates that in the next Congress the Administration will have a clear working mujority in the House, while the Senate will stand, Republicans 29, Dems ocrats 9, Unionists, (including such men <8 Sprague of Rhode Island, Hicks of Maryland, and Conness of California) 9, _, A DisasTROUS fire occurred at Denver City, Colorado Territory, on the 19th. The losa is estimated at $1,500,000. Reese C. . Freeson, for many years-one of the most prominent editors of the Pitts. burg (Pa) press, died in that city on the 16th of March. eae REET ni “TWENTY-FIve ovens are kept -constantly at work in New York and Brooklyn, balks ing pilot bread for the army: They bake froin 6,000,000 to 8,000,000 pouds per By'the President ef the United States : Be oT gor im devoutly, izing upreme Authority and just Abrernifont of Almighty God in all the affairs 6f cand nations, has, by a res~ olution, requested the President to designate and set apart a day for national pryer and humiliation; ‘and whereas itis duty. of nations, as well as of men, to own their de-« pendence upou God, to confess their sins and transgressions, in humble sorrow, yét with assured hope wn ct re ree will ‘lead to mercy: " 5 recognize the sabia test announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord; And inasmiich as we know that, by His at flaw, nations, like individiats, are subjected to punishments and chastisementa in this world, may we not justly fear that the awful ealamity of civil war, which now derolates the Jand, may be a punish~ ment inflicted upon us for our presumptuous sins, to the needful end of our national reformatilras:~§,, whole people? We have beer 'the recipients. of the choicest bounties of Heaven. e@ have been preserved these inany) years’ in “peace and prosperity, We have grown in numbers, wealth and power, fa no other nation has ever grown, But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace, and multiplied and. enriched. and strengthened us; and we have vainly imagins ed, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some toxicated with unbroken success. we have become tov self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us! before the offended Power, to confess our nas tional sins, and to pray for clemency and for. giveness. Now, therefore in compliance-with-the-request, and fully concurring in the views of the Senate, I do, by thie my proclamation, designate and set apart Thursday, the 30th day of April, 1863, as a day-of national humiliation, fasting and prayer. And I do hereby request all the people to abstsin oi that day from their ordinary secular pursuits, and to unité at their several places of public worship and tieir respective homenyin keeping the day holy to the Lord and devoted to the humble discharge of the religious duties preper to that selemn sceasion, —All this being done, in sincerity and truth, let us then reat humbly in the hope,. authrized by the Divine teachings, that the united ery of the nation will be heard on high, ard answered with blessings, no less than the pardon ot our national, siria and-restoration of out now divided and suffering country to ita former happy condition of unity © and pence, ‘ . In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand, and caused the seal of the United . States to be affixed, ; Done at the city of Washington, this 3 tieth day of March, 1m the vear of our Gord one thousand eight hundred and sixtysthree, and of the independence of the United States the eightysseventh.

The Moderator was disas “bled by the explosion of a shell in her engine room, but can soon’ be repaired. The Tigress_was struck between wind and water near the stern, tearing a large hole enough to sink herin a short time.
