Seventeen years ago yesterday a solitary indi- vidual knelt in an upper room in the consistory buildings of the North Dutch church and spent half an hour alone in prayer to God. At half-past twelve P, M., he was joined by another person and thus the noon hour of September 23, 1857, was spent, and thus originated the Fulton street daily prayer meeting, whose seventeenth anniversary was celebrated yesterday with a congregation which crowded every part of the old churco. THE EXERCISES YESTERDAY were conducted by Rev. Dr. Nelson W. McVickar (Protestant Episcopal), of Harlem, and a tew opening remarks and prayer were offered by Rev. Dr. Vermilye, senior pastor of the Collegiate Dutch church, He referred briefly to the decease oO! his colleague, Dr. De Witt. Dr. McVickar read the sixty-sixth psaim, and in short address alluded to the strangeness of a prayer meeting anniversary. Dr. £, Bottome (Methodist) spoke of #N MINUTES FOR JESUS, It took less than that for Peter to deny his Lord, for the red-handed Saul of Tarsus to be changed to Paul the Apostie of the Gentiles, for the Syro- Phenician woman in the Gospel to get_ the devil driven out of her daughter, for the demons to be transferred from the mento the swine, for the thief on the cross to pray and receive an answer to his prayer, Andit ts remarkable that Bible prayers have this beautiful element of brevity, and are, withal, grandl comprehensive, The Rev. C. H. Byerest (Congtegationalist), of Brooklyn, compared this meeting to Elijah on Mount Carmel before the prophets of Baal, which has extracted the cry trom the ‘world, “The Lord, He 18 God.” Rey. J. Spencer Kennard (Baptist), as a young | man, pledged the young men to carry on the work of God where the old men Jay it down. Rev. Dr. James M. Ludlow (Oollegiate Dutch Church) wished that the letters that have been sent to this meeting to-day had been placed in the hands of Dr. Tyndall, and that tne answers might be placed there also. telegram irom Ireland by way of Philadetphia, through George H. Stuart, was read giving a vrier account of the success of Messrs, Moody and Sankey, and asking prayer for the American and Trish missionaries. Mr. Clagie was then asked to lead th prayer, which he did. Rev, Charles Parker (Reformed Dutch Church) said that during the seventeen years of the exist- ence of this meeting there had been held 313 serve ices @year of this Ecumenical Vouneill of Christtans, from all parts of the worid and of the different rape to ask God’s biessing upon His ebureh. Dr. Vermilye dismissed the congregation with the of prayer in the Old Dutch church, SCALDING A FELLOW SERVANT.

It ts pretty plain that the Lord Mayor of Dublin, as well as the distinguished team of Irish rifemen who are to contest for the international champion- ship on Saturday next, have no enemies on this side of the Atlantic. AC all events, if any such im- pression prevailed, the whole-souled and enthuat- astic reception accorded them at Booth’s Theatre last night by over three thousand people migiat tn a measure tend to convince the sceptic that New York has lost none of its old renown in the way of friendliness and hospitality. The fact is, the aavent of the party here, In view of the noble and chivalrous object which prompted their visit, has aWakeued a feeling of the deepest interest, which the Empire City thoroughly appreciates, And It is not @ little gratifying ¢o think that all the visitors most heartily wish their Stay might be prolonged, The announce- ment that the Lord Mayor and Laay Mayoress, Viscount and Viscountess Massarene, and Ferrard and the entfre members of the party would visit Booth’s Theatre last night to see Mr. and Mrs, Barney Williams in their famous spe- Claities, was sufficient to attract an immense as- semblage, yet few were prepared for such a demonstration as actually took place. Crowds | had assembled in the vicinity of the theatre, and | When the carriages rolled upto the door at eight o'clock a cheer arose that made the weikin ring. Mr. Harry Paimer escorted the Lord and Lady May- oress to their proscenium box, Viscount and Vis- countess Massarene being taken in charge by Mr. | Jarrett, while the other members — of the party were entrusted to the care of Mr. Tooker. Meanwhile the theatre had become thronged to tie very doors, and the premium on camp stools having gone beyond pure chase the passage Ways became entirely blocked up. Outside the theatre was appropriately adorned with flags, but the interior presented an appearance seldom witnessed even on the most les.ive occasions, Satm banners, representative oi the American, [rish and Engitsh nations, hand- somely iterwoven, depended from the boxes, while tn other parts of the house weicoming symools Were prominently displayed. As the party entered the audience rose en masse and amid vocilerous cheering and the waving of hand- kerchieis the band struck up ‘God Save the Queen.” When this necessary part of the musical arraugements had been diposed of by Mr. Con- | nolly’s orchestra the lively strains of “Garry Owen” made everybody feel at ome, To make sure of it, however, “St. Patrick’s Day” was | thrown in, but when “Hail Columbia” suc- ceeded there arose such a deafening shout that the very Walls seemed to tremble, The recop- tion was altogether of the Warmest and most en- thusiastic cuaracter, the play was appropriate, and the scene one seldom witnessed inside & theatre. ‘Lhe party was equally distributed in the two lower proscenium boxes, the Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress being at the right and the Viscount and Viscountess Massatene on the leit. Whether inspired by the surroundings or javoring | under the impression that he was tripping the boards on a ‘command uight’ in the old Theatre Royal of Dublin, Barney Willlains and his better hall never appeared to such advantage. Everybody Knows what magical effect a rousing house has on both artist and audience, and it is no exaggera- tion to alte i the Way Of hearty laughter Mr, ana Mrs, Williams fairly doubled it up, “Connie Soogah’? seemed @ novelty in the hands of these favorite artists last night, and from pit to dome applause rang throughout | every Scene, But all good things must come to | an end, and so did tne play. After persistent | calls Barney Williams came to the front, and in response to the general demand delivered one of his characteristic speeches, in the course of which he expressed tus gratitude for the evidence of satisiaction which had been displayed. But he was still more deliguted with the enthusiastic reception extended toward his distinguished coun- | trymen, He was only too happy to say iu the name of the audience that they were heartily welcome to the metropolis of America, and if ever American citizens were generously treated in a foreign land it would be in good, old hospitable Iretand—a land which the Lord Mayor and his associates 80 well represented. Cheers followed this, and as Barney concluded he walked over to the right hand of the stage, but, beg unable to make an exit in that direc- | tion, was compelled to go to the other ) side, which he did, winking thoughtfafly at | ¢ the audience, with the remark, “It’s a | moighty poor house that’s got only one door,” @ phuosopnical observation that raised a storm. | ‘Thus ended the entertamment, than which a more | enjoyabie one kas seldom been seen in this city. | ‘The party had altogetuer an agreeable day of {t, having speLt the early part of it on board Mr. Wal- Jack's yacht, the Coiumbia, which, with a tair wind, conveye« them beyoud the Narrows and out toward Sandy Hook.
