They tender to the government at Montgomery their sympathy and confidence, and recommend the churches of the South to observe the first and second days of June as days of fasting, humiliation, and prayer. This report borrows additional interest from the fact that it comes from the pen of Dr. Richard Fuller of Baltimore, who made himself conspicuous, three or four weeks ago, as a member of that committee of young Christians who waited upon Mr. Lincoln to request that the Government of the United States would reconsider its order for the troops needed at Washington to come through Maryland.--(Doc. 159.)

g a portion of this time, away at school. There is the whole range of a New England elder-sister's life in the two following extracts from the same letter to Richard Fuller (May 12, 1842). First, the love of Greek, perhaps flagging, must be stimulated:-- While here I have been reading (only in translation, alas!) the Cyropedia countenance, be greeted no more by the gentle formal courtesy; nay, it is even sad that we shall be catechised no more for great truths to feed his earnest mind. Fuller Mss. i. 425. The Fuller family resided at Jamaica Plain from the spring of 1839 to that of 1842, when Margaret took the responsibility of purchasing a house i may well close with a graphic description of her as she seemed, at this period of her career, to a childish neighbor, who writes thus to me:-- I had known Miss Fuller in my childhood when she was our next-door neighbor in Ellery Street, Cambridge. She made a pet of me; and the isolated little German girl was indebted to her

Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.Biennial meeting of the Southern Baptist Convention. Savannah, Ga., May 9, 1861. There are about a hundred delegates in attendance upon the meeting of the Southern Baptist Convention. Dr. Fuller, of Baltimore, the President, managed to get here by leaving his city by the last vessel which the Government permitted to leave for the South. Rev. Drs. Taylor and Poindexter, from your city, are here. This Convention represents a constituency of 500,000, comprising much wealth and influence.
A white "superintendent" is placed upon every plantation, except such as have been "sold" to Yankee settlers. They are quartering up the land into 20 acre lots, and persuading the negroes to put up cabins and rent these lots. There is a telegraph from Beaufort Island to Hilton Head via Paris Island, and from Beaufort toward Port Royal Ferry. A Captain Paine (whom we took prisoner on a scout between Morris and James Islands) and a millwright named Saulsbury, are the two greatest Yankee scouts, and have frequently been over to the main. General Gillmore has sent North for 40,000 men, and some of them (all drafted men) have come.--On Land's End two negro men have been shot dead for swearing that they would not fight. One of them belonged to Mr. Richard Fuller, and the other to Brigadier-General Finegan.
