A Daily Prayer-Meeting of Forty Reformed Drunkards, PARWELT WALT. THE NOON PRAYEM-MERTINGS, The reappearance of Mr. Moody was an ocea- sion of great satisfaction. The hall was full, Nut no one waa turned away, thouch quite a number preferred standing on the main fluor to occupying the back seats in the gallery. The solo and chorus, “I haven Savior, He's plead: ing in glory,” was given with good elfect by Mr. Sankey and the Taberuncte ehotr, a large number of whom were on and around the plat- form. Thanksgivings aud requests for prayer to the number of 100 were summarized and pre- acnted by the Rey. Mr. Davis. Ft. Atkinson, Wis,, and Carun, HL, for which places prayers were offered a few days azo, sent dispatches an- nouncing the outbreak of powerful revivats, and desiring to return thanks to God. Prayer was asked for the churches at Waterman, Lyons, Homewood, Seward, and Pecatonten, in Winols; Cor the Rockford Female Seminary, for Remington, Ind., for the Y. M. C.

The lesson for the day was the fifth chapter of John, from portions of which Mr. Moody made ‘THE ADDRrss, Iwas Eoing to cull this fifth chapter of John the wonderful chapter, but. all the chapters of this Gorpel nre wonderful.

Not Ices tlian 300 persons since last Sunday afternoon have professed to find the Savior. At one inquiry-meeting, in which there were over 100 persons, every one of them professed to be enved befove leaving tho room. Under ordinary clreumstances the organization of a dally prayer-mecting of forty men, every one of whom one week ago were drunkards, would be regarded as Ilttle tess thana miracle, yet sucha meeting Is now held every day at the Lower Farwell Hall, under the leadership of Mr. Sharp, himself a reformed ian, aud tho number {s dally tncreasing, Let it be under. stood that these men are not merely seeking to become temperate men, but to tbecome Chris- tlans; and many of thern haye already found new hearts, and some of them can testify from experience that the Grace of God js able to saye them from thelr appetites os well as from any other sin and sorrow, Christian belicvers need not spend any more time praylng for “ power,” when hundreds of people cyery night Huger at tho xfter-necting wWalting for some Christian friend to take them by the land and show them the way uf salya- ton. The harvest lina begun in clorious plenty.

THE SERMON. This was Christ's ‘naugural sermon, We find that nfter He hind read so inuch out of the book of tho Prophet fealah, Ho closed the book and bezan “This day ia this Scripturo ful- Alled In your cars." This first sermon was at Naz- areth among his uwn townspeople. He had been totho Jordan, and John the Baptist had baptized him. and now that he has come back ani the peo- ple hava heard of the strange voleo which spoke rom Heaven when fe came ap out of the wator, they no doubt expected some great thing from Him, And they got (t. Christ preached the Gospel to them. A“ yrent muny people don't know what ‘Gospel means. Tt meatis good epell, or Gail's gpell, or, Inthe words of ty. toxt, [tmeans the “‘aceeptable year of the Lord.” In that rixty- first chapter of Isaiah he stopped, right In the mid- dlo of azentence. ‘There wers seven things He hat come todo, Ife had come to peach the Gospel to the poor, to heal the broken-hearted, to. proclaim lberty t0 the captives, to give sight fo the blind, and to eat at liberty them that ara braised, and to open the tloors to the captive, and to proctalm the acceptable yearof the Lord; thon lie closed the Look, ‘The next sentence which He. omitted was, **Tho day of vengeance of one God."
