THE GRACE-sTREET REVIVAL.
Fine Meeting Last Night-Prayers
for Sa!oon-kcepers.

One OF the greatest crowds yet seen
assembled at the First Presbyterian
church last night 10 attend the great
revival now being held by the Grace
Street Baptist people in that church. The
lecture-room i'm the rear OF the pulpit had
to be opened. and Or. Broughton preach
ed with surpassing power ana Win
marked effect Twelve persons. professed
conversion. The number of the uncon-
verted who were present was unusually
large and the ministers feel very hope
full of yet larger results.
A touching incident OF the meeting
was the reading Of a letter. written TO
DR. Hatcher. from a lady in distant
part OF the State. asking prayers for
her brother. who is q saIoon-keeper on
Broad street. Or. Broughton spoke very
kindly of the saloon-men. at least those
of them who are not church members,
and expressed the earnest wish that they
would attend the meeting. a number
of gentlemen volunteered to assure the
men in this line of business OF the
kindly interest felt by the church in
their religious welfare, and to invite them
to the revival.
Dr. Hatcher is preaching every eve
ming at 6 o'clock at the college. Yes
terday evening there was large attend
ance Of the students, and several Of the
young men professed conversion. These
services viii continue.
When asked last night II he was
receiving much money for his church
building fund. DR. Hatcher said he was
so completely absorbed I'm his revival
work that he could not give much at
tention to that subject yet. But he
was receiving kind gifts every day, and
was receiving many assurances of sub
stantial sympathy hereafter. While 1t
IS understood that the sympathizers
of the church are arranging ior sys-
tematic canvass of the CITY, 1t would
perhaps be just as well for those who
are ready to give TO enclose their contri-
button TO DR.. Hatcher. as some are
doing every day. Among the gifts yes
terday was 500 from a gentleman, who
requested that his name should be with
held. which. the Doctor said. was CRATE
fully appreciated, though not more high
iy than smaller gifts. which other friends
OF more limited means have made.

BRITAIN AND ARMENIA.
Formers POsition-Crusades Must
Now BE Practical.


LONDON. March Sin the House OF
Commons to-day Mr.. George N. Curzon,
Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs. re-
plying to questions, made the statement
that the government had heard nothing
of the Porte's having declined to issue
passports to persons desiring to go to
the distressed districts of Asia Minor,
In consequence of the Turkish officials
there having seized, for the payment OF
taxes moneys which had been sent for
relief purposes. Sir Philip Currie, British
Ambassador to Turkey he said, had been
instructed to make inquiries.
Mr.. Samuel Smith. Liberal member for
Flintshire, then opened the debate on
n resolution OF sympathy with the Arme-
mans.
MFR. Curzon followed Mr.. Smith, and in
timated that the government would ac-
cept the latter's motion. He argued that
the reasons against Great Britain's inde-
pendent action In the Armenian matter
were as much geographical as political.
There was practically no port at whicn
Great Britain could land an armed force.
and at the scene OF the outrages there
must be encountered 10000 Turkish
troops. The crusades Of the nineteenth
century, he added, must have a practi-
cal, as well as a chivalrous, aspect The
government would in the future abate
its efforts In behalf Of the Armenians.
Regarding the past. Mr.. Curzon said he
expected the House was convinced that
the government could not have gone fur
ther than IL had.
The debate lasted well into the night.
