REvIYALs IN STEUBEN Co. N. Y
Brother Leavitt-I have the pleasure of
informing you that the Lord has been
doing great things OF late for the county
of Steuben. Revivals have been enjoyed
in seven or eight places, and there is
reason to believe that there has been iov
in heaven over the repentance of one or
two hundred souls. The following con-
gregations have been visited with showers
Of divine grace Harrington, Wayne,
Hammondsport, Head of Seneca, Elmira
Big Flats, Evoca and Poultney. Most
of these revivals, if not all, have been in
connection with protrarted meetings,
generally held about two weeks
There has also been considerable at
tention among the Methodists and Bap-
lists, with which l have not been sutfi-
ciently acquainted 10 give particular
account.
So far as our own denomination is con-
cerned, believe the work has been carried
on by the faithful exhibition of the Bible
truth from the pulpit, the fervent and i'm
Fortunate prayers and active efforts of
Christians, succeeded by the blessed in
fuences Of the Spirit Of God, to whom be
all the glory.
l. consider that such season Of re-
freshing from the presence of the Lord is
suspicious for the best interests of this
county for years to come, if Christians
will now unite their energies together for
the advancement of the common cause.
Last Sabbath was our communion, and
twenty-one were added to the Presbvteri-
an church, in Hammondsport, by pro.
fession, as the fruit Of the precious revival
which we have enjoyed Others are ex-
pected also TO unite with US hereafter, who
are now hoping in Christ.
Yours, &c, GEO. E, DELAvAN.

Between 6 Timothy - and Titus.,,
l. E T T E r TO "TITUS," No. IL.
Dear Brother Titus ~ Yours, ofthe 18th
ult. was perused with much pleasure, and
would have received an earlier reply, but
! from unavoidable circumstances. In this.
will mention some additional evidence OF
the t7nth of the position, acceded to in vour
last that the church is noD rodically
1orong. | am no advocate for that extrava-
giant decrial of the present age, in which
some Ren have come out against all the
good things Of the day. That is, using the
TACT that we are wrong, 10 inveigh against
all we are doing that is right While |
would avoid that evil, God forbid that
should forbear, by his word and at his bid
ding, to 'show his people their sins" The
following are the facts at which must now
but briefly hint.
!. While there are so ne whose meat and
drink it is to do the will of God, the church
generally are much more engaged in the
things of the world, than in religion. How
many of her members will spend more time
and money, rise earlier and sit up later. go
farther in inclement seasons, and suffer
more fatigue, to secure any worldly object,
than they will to serve God. Triricl cir
cumstances, affecting the temporal interests
of their friends, will excite more feeling.
and call forth more energetic, vigorous ac-
ton than does the fact that the son1s Of
those friends are Fastening to the pit Thus
do they give practical testimony, which no
words can disprove, that they love the
world better than they do God or the souls
of men. Again, in our ordinary religious
exercises, there is no interest. Men preach
and pray as though they did not intend or
believe what they say. Did a person, pro-
Tossing to be in want, ask for aid in the same
tone and manner, we should consider him
knocking. Almost any person, even a
spiritual christian, would rather hear a tol-
cradle address On any other important sub
ject than 10 hear most of our sermons. be-
cause In such an address they would find
the spirit of the subject, whereas the SER
mons alluded to are as destitute of any spirit
as is dead body. The Holy Spirit rot
being in them and God having so ordered
it that they cannot be animated by the spirit
Of the world, they are, therefore, with a
multitude of evil spirits lowering around
them, as spiritless as a loatbsome carcass
or an Egyptian Mummy. BY this it has
come to pass that religious meetines-the
most important Of all-are more poorly at
tended than any other, and were tier not
held on the Sabbath, could scarcely Sc SIM
ported.
Were the church right their meetings
would be better attended than our political
elections, or the Theatre, because the obiec,
is more important. 49,:

to consume the time and waste the energies
of her best members in settling fooI;sh
difficulties. And still in almost every
church there are some who are bur1,e,,ed

dignity has not been sufficiently reaarded

Gates of this system seem to think vastly
more, how much it exalts man, than how
