REVIVAL IN ENeLAND.-The question
has recently been proposed to US with
considerable earnestness-What is the
usual effect of the diffusion of Tempe
rance principles upon theChristian church!
This enquiry we shall answer BY request
ing the special attention of our readers to
the following truly interesting communi-
: cation, from one of the most jealous and
excellent friends Of the temperance cause
in the empire. 1t is 10 be observed, that
Haworth is populous manufacturing
; place, in the neighborhood of Keighley,
in the West Riding of Yorkshire. Ii has
recently been the scene ofylSorous Tenn
perance operations, carried on in connec-
ton with the friends at Wilsden and
with sincere pleasure we add, that the in
cumbent Of the place, the Rev. Mr.. Bronte
and both the Baptist ministers, the Rev.
Messrs. Saunders and Winterbotam, are
advocates of the society. 1t is necessary
also further to state, that the principle
adopted in this vicinity is that of G6Sti-
nence from all the agents of intemperance.
The following is the pleasing cornmunica-
ton of Mr.. Nichols:
"A delightful revival of religion has
been going on for some weeks in Ha-
worth and its neighborhood. Mr.. Saun-
ders has about sixty inquirers. He bap-
tized and received into his church eleven
Yesterday, (March g. the first fruits.
And in administering the ordinance be-
fore a crowded congregation, he testl-
fled to the rGlue Ofthe Temperance SOcl-
ety in hoving rescued t'co Of them from
the depths of drunkenness, and third
from Incorporate habits, The other demon
nation participate in the zeal and increase.
There is general crying out, Wha;
must do to be saved 2 Confession, re-
pentance, gratitude, and love abound
among US. The meetings, which frequent
ly commence at five o'clock in the morn
ing, and at night dc not separate until
ten or eleven, are always full, and the peo-
pie reluctant to 60 away. SeUcrGI other
/ reformed drumkards are attending the
means of grace, and beginning to pray
The public houses and jcrry-shops arc
ect1psed bythe glorious sun Of righteous
ness. O cease not your efforts, till Chris
tians know their duty to their Savior, and
conspire against those bulwarks of iniqui-
ty and infidelity-those whirlpooIs ofper-
dition ~
We shall not weaken the impression OF
this heart inspiring communication by
any remarks of our own. Inmortal thanks
be given to the ever-bIessed God for rem
dering the Temperance Society, under his
own blessing, the means of thus enlarg-
ing his spiritual empire and promoting
his eternal praise!-Lo~1o~ Temper

The Methodist Episcopal Church in
this City is enjoying, at the present time,
a great refreshing from the presence of
the Lord Deep solemnity has marked
the countenances of most of the Congre-
CATION for several weeks: and the word
preached, during that time, has been at
tended with apparently great effect Very
many whose love had waxed cold, have
been aroused to see their short comings,
, and have been enabled to say, Thou hast
restored to me the joy of thy salvation.
Some have professed the blessing of Ho-
illness others are seeking this with great
! earnestness,-Between twenty and thirty
have been converted, among which are
several Sabbath School children. Indeed
at an inquiry meeting, appointed particu,
larly for this interesting class, more than
forty were present.
A series ofmeetlngs have been appoint
ed, which it is hoped, will result in the
