RELIGIOUS REvlvALs.-The general interest
on religious subjects which has been observed
in nearly every section throughout the Union,
and received the respectful consideration Of the
secular as well as the religious portion of the
public press. seems to be extending to the far
western frontiers; from the plains Of Kansas
and Nebraska, and even in the remotest coun.
ties Of our own State, glowing descriptions are
given of the progress of these reviyals-,he or.
igin OF which has been as mysterious as their
successes have been remarkable. In st. Paul
during the past winter there has been marked
feeling upon the subject Of spiritual refOrma.
ton, aud the meetings that are continued up to
the present time by some denominations. have
been crowned by an extraordinary success
This interes. does not appear to be confined to

STREET PREAcnIsG.-The Tunes of yesterday
says that religious services will be held In front
OF the Court House, durirg the afternoon of to-
day. The preacher on the present occasion,
addressed Promscuous gathering Of people
near the old Post Office building, a few sab
baths since, aud the proceedings are described
ny an witness as being entirely out of place,
and even disgusting. The reason for this
additiona! exhibition is: the Mayor was re.
quested to permit these meetings in the street,
and at once returned an answer peremptOrily
refusing the privilege, believing that they were
lar more liable to create disturbances, than to
promote good. and accomplish any useful and
worthy end. The Mnisfr in retaliation ad-
opts this policy for the maintenance of liberty
OF speech in this community, and expresses a
determination to speak on any occasion, and at
any place where he may deem it advisable to
do so. Ia relation to the merits OF the con,ro-
very between the Mayor and the Reverend gen.
tleman we leave the public to decide, but sin.

pie will keep away from these assemblage, for
they are resort to acquire notorety here a.

public on certain points, perhaps he can lease
