ticed two three pairs of Boots and Shoes that

THE CHRONICLE.
MONDAY, APRIL IL, 1855.

TIE Observation-Disclosures and further
seems to extend the religious awakening
which for some time was SO prominent in
New York city. In almost every city
and town, We see notices of more frequent
meetings for prayer and praise, in daytime
aud on week days, as well as on Sabbaths
and at evenings. Large accessions are re-
ported to most of the churches of every
order-more especially to those churches
whose past histories are identified with
'revival' efforts
There are some marked features in these
endeavors $50 much blessedD to do good
l. There is hardly any mere excite.
ment but very general stiffness and
solemnity.
2. There is an unusual prompting to
duty and laboring to do good, not only
among preachers, but among all the iHem-
bcrs OF churches.
8. The union of effort among different
denominations, working together, yet each
retaining their own opinions and practice,
is proof to all that the good Of souls is the
paramount object.
4. Attendance upon daily religious
meetings, involves some sacrifice of time,
and perhaps Of money, and is manifestly
not resort to idle away Sabbath hour,
to hear some fashionable music or pretty
orator, nor to exhibit the richness of gar
ments, elegance of styles, or splendor of
paintings and architectural idolatry. The
addresses, the songs Of praise and of
supplication, and the prayers, are regenerally
simple, direct, and such as become finite
