SABBATH SCHOOL REyIvALs.-From
the reports received from the various Sab
bath Schools, we find great encourage
ment to labor in this department Of Chris
tan enterprise.
Sixty-6ve members of the Sabbath
School in Hatfield. were hopefully con-
verted during the first three months of the
present year. Not one child or youth,
out of the school, is known to have shared
in his precious work Of grace!
In Oxford, there was enjoyed a refresh
ing season, during the past winter. Quite
number of the Sabbath School, it IS
hoped, were born again. Several among
the adult classes were among the subjects
OF the work; and some adults who, this
year, for the first time, were persuaded to
unite with the school.
One hundred and ten members of the
Sabbath School in Munson have become
interested in the extensive revivals witt
which that town has been visited! About
seventy Of the ITO were baptized in in
fancy.
The revival in Ware village, during
the last winter, made the school a scene
Of great interest. Among those who
shared in this revival, were thirty three
scholars Of the Sabbath School, of whom
90 were baptized in infancy. OF one
class Of II, 9 became hopefully pious. OF
another class of 9, 6 with their teacher
became hopefully pious
In Nantucket, eleven of the Oldest and
most interesting lads in the school, and
twelve Of the older females, have been born
again. There are many more in a deeply
, interesting state of mind.
In Northampton, forty members Of the
school have been converted. In Nort
. Brook6eld, sixty scholars have becom,
pious, so of whom were baptized in in
f fancy, and 35 have made public profess
f ion. 1t has been stated in former mum
D ber, that sixty have been hopefully con
verted in the school at Williamsburgh.
r For several months past, there has beer
>. more or less interest and some cases O
hopeful conversion, in most of the Sab
bath Schools in this city; and in many
other schools in all sections of the State
o S. S. Vistter. Boston.

AMHERST, MAss.-There has been
highly interesting state of religion in tn
place for some months past. There ha,
