The EyANGELisrs. MesSrs.
Graves < Leland, the evangelists
whose services In cooperation with
the Christian people of Upton are eX-
pected the last of this month, have
Just finished a ten-days-labor at Ma
quoketa The last Ereeisiof of that
city, publishes "A lengthy list of COM
mandatory resolutions adopted at tho
close of the meeting, and in another
part Of the paper uses the following
language editorially:
On Tuesday night of this week the
evangelists, Messrs. Graves Il Leland,
closed their labors with the churches
in this city. For nine days they
worked with an untlagging zeal to
arouse Christians to realizing sense
OF their duty, and to awaken sinners
to due sense of their condition.
Whatever difference of opinion there
may be among those who did not
agree with their method of work, all
must admit that both are in earnest,
and conscientious in their endeavors to
do good. What the results of their
lahors have been, or what they will
be, il is, of course, impossible to make
correct estimate at the present time.
But il must be apparent, even to the
careless observer, that much good has
been done, and many have turned
over a new leaf in their actions and
ways Of living.
The article published in the Erect
siof last week, and the resolutions in
to-day's issue, set forth the prevail
ing views of the people as regards the
work of the evangeiists here. Many
were happily disappointed in the qui-
ct way in which the meetings were
conducted. 1t is so customary to as
socate with reviyals the idea of a
great excitement and noise, that
many think that such work cannot
be carried OH any other way, but the
faIseness of this position has been full
~ demonstrated here. The inquiry
meetings were almost as quiet as the
regular meetings, but people are
thoughtful and earnest, considering
and reasoning this important question
Of their lives. The number who have
thus far determined to enter upon a
new life is variously estimated at sew
enty-fiye to one hundred. Union
meetings have been conducted each
evening since the evangelists left, the
pastors of the different churches Of
iiciating. The morning prayer meet
i.gs have also been held, but will
close this morning.
The evangclists left on "Wednesday
morning for Nevada to hold series
Of meetings.

years than any other State in
the Union. Her population in

1876 it is believed to be fully

and there is every prospect that
during the present it will exceed
largely that of any previous year.
