    TEE ItrMAR.TABLE AWAKENING
IN INDIANAPOLIS,
Several Western papers have given
lon , accounts of the extensive outpour
in;, of the Holy Spirit in connection with
Mr. Hammond's labors in Indianapolis.
It would appear that the influence of the
work has been felt all through the State.
During, at least,.four weeks " The In
dianapolis Journal," one of the most in
fluential secular papers in the State has
given a daily report of the meetings from
one to three columns in length.
No doubt these reports, as was the case
during the great awakening in 1858,
moved the hearts of Christians in many
places to pray and labor for the salvation
of sinners. The Journal, of May 17th,
says:
" The Academy of Music was filled
last evening long before the hour of meet
ing as it was never filled before, par
quette, dress circle, galleries, stage, aisles,
and every available foot of standing room
being occupied. It was estimated that
there were quite three thousand five
hundred crowded into the building last
night, and great crowds of people were
compelled to go away; failing to get,into
the building."
At one of' the meetings in the above
mentioned place between six and seven
hundred at the close of Mr. Hammond's
sermon are spoken of as requesting the
prayers of God's people.
" Professor Bell, of the High School,
gave a report of the condition of that in
stitution, so far as it had been influenced
by the revival now in progress. The
Professor said that seventy-five of the
scholars had professed conversion; that
the attention the pupils were necessarily
compelled to give these meetings, it was
thought by a great many, would inter
fere with their studies; but he said that
while the scholars had not as much time
to study, yet their attention and good
behavior more than made up this deft
ciency, and the school was never in as
good condition as now; nor were the les
sons as well recited."
At the close of the second week it was
reported that about wen hundred were
indulging the hope that their sins were
forgiven Mr. H. remained four weeks,
and as we learn that the work has gone
on from that time to the present, the
number must be now much larger.
The fact that about twenty ministers
have been in constant attendance at the
meetings, speaking and praying with
anxious souls, indicates that the work
must continue.
The Journal of May 24th, one week
after Mr. Hammond left, in speaking of
the morning ,prayer meeting says :
This meeting was held in the Second
Presbyterian church, and was led by the
Rev. Dr. Holliday. -, After spending
about fifteen minutes in singing some of
the soul-stirring hymns in the "New
Praises of Jesus," the Rev. Dr. read the
beautiful and instructive lesson from the
Old Testament, of Elisha's prayer for
fire to fall upon the sacrifices, and hia
prayer for rain. He then made a few
earnest and pertinent remarks upon the
power of fervent prayer. Dr. Holliday
was followed by several gentlemen, who
spoke of the efficiency of prayer, and in
stanced cases in which hardened cases
had been reached by prayer.
One encouraging feature of the meet
ing was that those who have recently
found the Saviour, participated actively
in the work These young converts
possess more power and influence than
they imagine. They can in five words
contribut very much towards the com
fort and encouragement of God's people
and the advancement of the cause of
Christ in the hearts of sinful men. One
young , convert mentioned the fact that
he had just received a letter from an
aged mother, in which she expressed the
great joy of her heart at his conversion,
of which she had just heard. Another
asks prayer for an anxious friend. An
other young convert, in whom a great
reformation has taken place, spoke earn
estly for Jesus: Another requested
prayer that he might be strengthened
to follow Christ, but felt like a little
child in strength. He closed by asking
prayer for four cotnpanions. Dr. Holli
day read a request that all Uhrist's peo
ple unite in prayer for the President of
the United States.
THE MEETING YESTERDAY.
Meetings were held in all the
churches yesterday morning. In all of
them an unusual interest in divine
things was manifested. One hundred
persons were received into the commu
nion of the Second Presbyterian Church.
Late in the afternoon, open-air meet
ings were held in the State House yard,
the old Cemetery and the Hospital.
These meetings were appointed by the
executive committee of the Gospel Reg,i
ment, which has recently been organ
ized by the Young Men's Christian
Association. These meetings were all
of an interesting character, and it is
hoped much good is done.
The meeting at the Academy of Music
was an immense one. The vast hall
was well filled, and a very deep interest
was exhibited. The opening exercises
consisted of singing and prayer.
The Rev. Mr. Edson, after invoking
the Divine blessing, then addressed the
great congregation , founding his remarks
upon the 15th verse of the 13th chapter
of Proverbs : "The''way of the trans
gressor is hard."
The whole assembly then united in
singing the hymn " Come to Jesus just
now," during ,which , a large number
rose for the prayers of God's people.
Would that the secular papers in all
our cities could give such reports of the
LA's work in sa:vation of sinners. •

$l3 384,780 during the month, and of $20,-
05,646.89 since Grant's inauguration. The

during the past month $2,197, 1 97.50 of

twenty-four deaths from scarlet fever. The
Board of Health reports the streets of nine
of the eighteen districts'in good sanitary
condition, three improving, two nearly
cleansed and two very filthy. These last
two occupy most of the city, we should
judge. Capt. Wm. H. West, a well known

the crew and paseengers . of a vessel burned
off Cape Hatteras in 1867, died in 'command

sions in Havana, and great. successes of
the insurgents. He denies that the Span
iards evince any spirit of discourtesy to
wards Americans.
eat Britain.—The Irish Church Bill
has passed the first reading in the House
of Lords. The Tory peers, who count on
80 majority, resolved in caucus to oppose
the Bill on its second reading, June 14th,
and rejected a proposal to merely adopt
material amendments in Committee. Mr.
Motley gives great satisfaction to the Brit
ish public, who had supposed that Mr.
Sumner knew the force of his own big
words, but are agreeably disappointed to
learn that Grant's policy is peace. Lord
Clarendon, in the Lords, pointed out the
fact that the Senate does not endorse Mr.
Sumner's rhetorical effort in allowing it to
be printed, and believed that good reeling
would ultimately prevail. The Times is
inclined to congratulate England on the
rejection of the Alabama Treaty, as it con
ceeded too much to the United States. The ,

Gladstone (it is said) will secure a majori
ty in the peers by raising all tbe,Liberal
eldest sons of peers to the Peerage at once.
The Lairds of Birkenhead defend their
building of the A/abanza as legal. Their
defence mostly rests on the inadequacy of
the municipal 10, and is variously received
by the papers. MUch rain has fallen re
cently..- Tne Tories still agitate against
the disestablishment of the Irish Church.
Gladstone refuses to` abolish, but promises
to reform, the Irish' National School Sys
tem. It is proposed to abolish the present
patent laws, and The Times favors the
plan. The copper coinage is to be with
drawn and a bronze currency takes its
place. Tory landlords in Wales are eject
ing their disSenting tenants for supporting
Gladstone. Since August 1862.480 British
joint stock . companies have failed.
France.—Gen. Dix, at a parting ban
quet. in his honor, assured France that the
policy of the U. S. was one of peace. France
