Charles Congdon, Tribune Essays: Leading Articles Contributing to the New York Tribune from 1857 to 1863. (ed. Horace Greeley), Mr. Davis proposes to Fast. (search)
of their ability to fast, in a genteel, orthodox and acceptable manner, we advise them, before the 27th of March, which is the day appointed, to take a few lessons of their niggers. Many of these are great adepts, through sad and involuntary experience, in the ascetic art of fasting; many of them are living monuments of the ability of man to exist upon next to nothing; and most of them have quite as much religion, to say the least of it, as their masters. Let Mr. Davis and his friends apply at the quarter-houses of the men-servants and maid-servants, as brother Davis calls them, for all necessary information. There are scrupulous persons who might object to the prayers of Rebels, as, to a certain extent, blasphemous. But we do not. Let them pray. The cannibals of Sumatra pray. The greasy and mud-smeared savages of Central Africa pray. There is said to be no heathen without a religion — all the other heathens pray,--and pray why should not the Confederates? March 11, 1863
