N. G. North, of Jefferson county, who announced the Rev. Peyton Harrison, of Cumberland county, as the preacher for that hour. The 46th Psalm (Luther's favorite battle Psalm,) was sung to Old Hundred. After a sermon on the "power of faith," Rev. Dr. Andrews, of Shepherds-town, made an exhortation, impressing the application of the sermon. In the afternoon, Rev. N. G. North preached from the words of Christ, in answer to the prayer of the penitent malefactor; and the services closed with a copious distribution of religious tracts and books, which were eagerly sought and carried off to the tents.

They captured our pickets at the "narrow pass," about five miles this side of Woodstock. It is apprehended that this force contemplates a movement up the Valley to Staunton or Harrisonburg. From the Lower Valley we have fresh accounts of the outrages of the Yankees at Charlestown. The Rev. N. G. North, an enthusiastic Southerner, who has already spent about six months in Northern dungeons, has been sent through the lines for exulting over the momentary relief from Yankee oppression afforded by the raid of Gen. Imboden. Not satisfied with banishing him from his home and family, they set fire to his house and burned it to the ground, with everything in it.
