He supposed tha: at least two han- red and twenty-five persons had professed religion under the ministration of members of the West Baltimore organization. Mr. Freeman, colored, reported that four Prrsops bad been converted in the colored as- sociation of Wasbington, and he believed that Many others had been brought to a knowledge of their wickedness by the efforts of the mem- bers thereof. During a revival within the past few months, conducted principally by the members of the colored association, about fifty persons had been converted, and this, he thought, could be attributed to their efforts, The question was further discussed; after which, the following was propounded by Mr. What should be the primary aim ject of the Young Men’s Christian As- tions 2”" Upon this question a number of members adaressed the Convention, pending which— The committee appointed to wait upon the President returned, and through yhairman, Mr. A.
