Prayer Contraband. --It appears that Picayune Butler intends to regulate the religion of the people of New Orleans. Apprehending that they might do some obnoxious praying on last Friday, he issued the following order. Butler, by his brutal orders, is doing good service in the Southern cause: Notice. Headqr's Department of the Gulf, New Orleans, May 18, 1862. General Orders, No. 27. It having come to the knowledge of the Commanding General that Friday next is proposed to be observed as a day of fasting and prayer, in obedience to some supposed proclamation of one Jefferson Davis, in the several churches of the city, it is ordered that no such observance he had. "Churches and religious houses are to be kept open as in times of profound peace," but no religious exercises are to be had upon the supposed authority above mentioned. By command of Major-Gen. Butler Geo. C. Strong, A. A. General.
