THE REVIVAL AT ASSOCIATION HALL
Yesterday evening was "the best day Of the
| feast" thus far-1n the number present, the
| deep solemnity, the tender feeling, and the
real power OF the meeting-and evidences
| come up from every quarter of the widen
| ing influence OF these services.
Bishop Doggett led the meeting and made
| q noble address-able, eloquent, and stir
ring-on the "Rejoicing OF Angels Over
Repenting Sinners" Bringing out clearly
the nature and character Of the angels, and
why they rejoice, he made with great power
| the point that these holy beings do not re-
joice in the guiIt-the wanderings-of siu-
ners, but in their repentance, and said with
great force: The Scribes and Pharisees
sneer at the evidence of the sinners repent
ance, but the true aristocracy OF God, who
stand in His presence and bask in His smiles
1.-THE holy angelsl, look upon it with appro-
baton, and raise songs Of praise and re-
ioicing " over one sinner that repenteth."
He earnestly appealed to the unconverted
to let there be much Joy among the angels
and among Gods people over their return
from their wanderings.
Rev. Dr. Read made q telling appeal to
the uncenverted not to continue their sin OF
impenitepce.
Major ~. F. G. Gregory made the point
that whise holy angels rejoice in the repent
ance of sinners, fallen angels hover around
to dissipate every good impression made,
and to driae away the first promptingss
of peniteroe. He begged the unconyerted
to guard against this.
A raiiroad-man sent up special request
for prayer far laS own conversion, and for
that Of many of his class, who are exposed
10 constant danger.
A large nnmbes OF other requests were
made, and remembered in special prayers
lad by Rev. Dr.. Warren, Rev. DR.. Read,
Rev. DR.. A. G. Brown, and Rev. j. William
jones.
Fhe meeting this evening from to g.
wiz be conducted by Rev. DR.. j. b. Gar
lick.

Are, nj the schools, has been modestly sug-
gested on more than one occasion by a
friend Of the public schools. The subject
has been delayed unduly, but the plan now
seems in a fair way to be carried out. We
refer 10 the importance of placing fire.
alarm stations in front Of every one
Of the public-schoo buildings in the
city, and depoSiting key with the iaDitors,
and placing another somewhere in the
building where it can be had in an instant.
| At a recent. meeting OF the City School
Board the plan was suggested, and it was
even pronounced good idea; but nothing
was then done by that body. At tue next
meeting OF the Board Of Aldermen, Mr..
Bass, impressed with the great Importance
OF the matter, presented resolution re-
auesting the Committee on Firc-Alarm and
Police Telegraph to inquire into the expe-
diency, cost, &C., OF putting up these fire
alarm stations. Public attention having
now been drawn to the subject, the COM
mittee-presided over by 4 gentleman OF sa-
gacity-seeing the necessity for immediate
| action, called bis committee together, and
they will submit report to the Council at
once. 4, -s.s@tr
The committee met yesterday afternoon.
Before the meeting, however, the chairman,
the superintendent OF the Fire-Alarm and
Police Telegraph, and other officials, deter
mined to visit several OF the schools and
ascertain for themselves how far they are
situated from the nearest fire-station. They
found one school five squares of, two others
four squares, another three, and 50 on.
They went up to one Of the buildings,
| where several hundred children are taught.
The jan.tor was standing at the door. One
! OF the party, after ascertaining who the man
was, asked him, in serious tone: Suppose
there should be fire here to-day, where
would you go to give the alarm2
The negro was apparently dumbfounded;
but, recovering himself replied. "Well, sir,
suppose I'd 20 to the. station-house." The
station-house is half mile away!
The principal Of the school was sent for,
and he was asked pretty much the same
question, and in response said he really
didn't know where he'd go; that the sub
iect had probably never occurred to him
The chairman Of the committee OR. Viii.
liams) charged that ianitor not to rest last
night until he knew the exact location OF
every fre-station in the neighborhood.
The Fire Department IS now supplied
with splendid new ladders, and there's no
telling the good the laddermen could do a,
one of these buildings if a fire should oe.
cur and the alarm be speedily given. Tc
this end the committee yesterday evening
resolved TO recommend to the Council the
purchase OF four fre-alarm boxes and erect
them at Bellevue, Madison, Leigh, and Cen.
trail buildings. The cost will be about 5000
