The last great revival in THE city was in $50 when

Up to the present time there has been less of gen.
era interest IN this city than many other places IN
New Ems gland and in New.York City. The interest
here lie believed to be increasing The numbers at
tending the daily morning prayer meeting at the Old
South Chapel have during this week very much IN
creased-sO much 40 that the chapel has been
crowded, and many have been obliged TO stsnd-and
the Iterest has been such that the services have been
heightened extra fifteen minutes Full threefourths
Of the audiences at these meetings are active business
men.
The attendance at the afternoon prayer meeting has
8lso much increased, and yesterday afternoon the
Park. street Vestry was nearly full. new Union
PRAYER meeting has also been started in the Bowdon
square Church VestIy at o'clock in the afternoon.
Ye sterday there from 100 to 700 persons
present, and the meeting of much sOlemnity
meetings yesterday seemed to be that Boston was
about to share very much more largely in the revival
than it has yet DONE and for this result much earnest
prayer offered. Boston journal
