~ Baxter street was converted into a chapel. a
little over a year ago missionary attempted to
establish a weekly prayer meeting In that locali-
ty, but was stoned away by the denilens of the
Five Points. Then Mrs. Doolittle, estimable
Christian lady, undertook to do that which a
man had failed In doing. At first she met with
rebufs, followed by threats Of personal violence,
but she persevered, and one year from the day
on which she first spoke TO the abandoned crea-
lures on the subject OF the salvation Of their
souls she succeeded, by the most persistent eff
forts, almost alone and unaided, In establishing
a permanent prayer meeting. In place OF the
bawdy pictures which once adorned the dirty
walls may now he seen others OF sacrod
nature. The bar was yesterday taken out, the
Liquors were destroyed, and from o'clock until
9 i. VI. prayer meeting was In session.
Among the audience, the majority Of whom

alongside Of fashonably dressed ladies', while

"Glory AS loudly and as feryently as any Of the
brothers. In the centre Of the room there was a
melodeun, AZ which Miss sherman presided. Mr..
J. Hill, Mr.. and Mrs owens, Messrs. Nsnnix and
Christian, Mrs Wilson, the Rev. Mr.. bradley
formerly pastor o. Calvary Chapel; the Rev. Mr..

In the basement a substantial supper was
served To all who desired to partake, Aristo-
cratic ladies with their sleeves rolled up and
towels to protect the fronts Of their dresses
waited upon the poor and lowly OF both seXes
and all colors. Nearly two hundred persons
were served with supper during the prayer meet
