The surplus, it (8 understood, iva s some fifteen per cent., and a larger dividend could hare boon declared if it had been the policy .of the company to change the amount of the quarterly dividend. The St. LouU Republican says the rates as.fixedhy the California Ten-graph from that point are according to the following table: First 10 words. Kext 90 words, (each) 38 Kext4oowords, jeach),,,, .. 24 Next $OO words, (car)]). Id After 1,600 (<*ach) 12 These rates for the lowest amounts of matter strictly conform to the act of Congress, which limited the maxi mum to $4.25 for the first ten words, and thirty-six cents for each additional. The rates from New York to San Francisco are £5.05 for the first ten wor4s, and forty - . fight cents for each subsequent word, the differenco feeing the present charges between New- York ami sf. 3Louis. As yet, through rates are exacted upon all da- to Salt hake City, Carson City, ami other inter mediate stations on the route, no way rales having, so far, been determined on. This irregularity wfH, how ever, be of only short duration, as at a meeting of the company, soon to be held in New York, a way schedule will be agreed on. The Impression that the present rates are too LipL, either for th« accommodation of the public or the interests of the company v is one which time may confirm. Sncb is the opinion of some of the corporators, tvho, it is to be hoped, if they are right, will be able to convince the controlling influences in tie company that it is good policy to reduce their prices.

The Nook-Day Prayer Mef.tikoYes terday a special effort was made to resuscitate the Busi ness Men's Noon-Bay Union Prayer Meeting, held daily in the old Sansom-street Baptist Church, below Ninth. The following notloe Was published regarding it; M Noon Prayer Meeting.—AU who love this meeting and wish it continued, are invited to come on Monday, to Sansora etrett Church, at 12 o’clockand in many of the pulpits on Sunday the same notice was given. Itappearsthat for come time past these meetings have been dwindling down to a ren' limited attendance, and that the daily contributions have not nearly equalled the expenses. The result of the extra effort yesterday was a coogre gregation much larger than usual, the church having been almost completely filled, although the business pro ceedings at the close ehowed very painfully that the great question of Church t» r ?vfon, alter aU the eloquence expended in its behalf since the commencement of the revival in 1857, remains practically unchanged. There have been many brave professions of union, but this sew bond between different denominations proves to have been one of courtesy and constraint only, without the cohesive power of true Christian lovo *, for, after a four years attempt to fraternize in spirit, we had yesterday the honest confession that the effort had utterly failed of its object. The Episcopalian was an Episcopalian still, the Baptist was a Baptist still, and so of the others. And not only this: tho meetings wero confessed to have been rendered unpleasant by obnoxious [denominational] aen timentii The movement did unquestionably promise well for a while: but of tbe opposite forces of attraction and repulsion the latter has at length so nearly obtained the mastery that to-day tho most ardent friends of the Noon-day Prayer 3foeting—those who doted most fondly on the placard, “ This metfing is a permanent ins tit u* TfOil”— entertain serious Fears* that decline will ere long result in discontinuance. The chair on this occasion was occupied by Mr. Shil lingsfoTd, who opened the meeting by reading the para ble of the sower, and a few remarks upon -the past history and vicissitudes of tlieeo noon-day gatherings for prayer since their inauguration, November 23d, 1857. After singing a bjmn, the usual exercises of voluntary prayer and exhortation were in order. The moderator read the following request for prayer: “ A mother asks the prayers of this meeting in behalf of an absent son- 1 ’ This request was responded to in a prayer by Mr. Tollman. The Bev. John Chambers next ros# and said that a notice had been circulated among the churches to some extent, within the last few days, which had probably startled every friend of tho Lord Jesus Christ in this city. The cause of this notice was simply this: For sometime post the attendance upon these meetings had averaged only about from fifty to a hundred persons, and the contributions had been altogether inadequate to defray the expenses of keeping them up. He was, how ever, not in favor of discontinuing them; God forbid ! He wanted them revived . If the necessity of prayer had been great in tbe fall of 1857, be reminded bis be loved brethren that it was a thousand time, greater now. The salvation of souls was just as important to-day as it had ever been. What'they wanted was unity of purpose and concert-of action. He knew that some peo ple said that the good results of these meetings did not depend upon numbers. But he would a*»k, wbat, then,, Snell results did tlnpnnd upon ? for if numbsta were en tirely immaterial, then ii small meeting was as good as ft large one, and, by logical sequence, a small meeting was no Octier than no meeting at all. He hoped that these meetings would not be relinquished while there wore two men or women In Philadelphia to keep thorn Up. The next speaker Loped that Mr. Chambers’ romaiks would find a fitting response in every heart. The prayers of the meeting were then requested, iu writing for a sick young man. This and the previous one were the only two requests presented. Tlie meeting Wits next addressed by Mr* Goorgo H. Stuart. He had just received a lettor from tho colonel of one of tho regiments at Washington, a portion of which he read. He felt that the deep necessity for earnest prayer at this extreme hour of our co nutty’s peril should itc-elf bn w eloquent appeal for the continuance of these meetings, which had been attended with 80 much good in the past. A gentleman whose name we did not learn next rose and said these were meetings of peace, but these were * times of war. The distinguished and the undistinguished were being hewn down by the ofinniy, Rllt there Wfil'C itiat>K<\l batteries move ih‘>lrn»tivt* than those on tho other side of the l'otomac—the batteries which Baton has planted along the pathway uflife to destroy soills. This speaker was followed by an eccentric young man, who rose and made a very impassioned peace speech. 3IW contended that Cod’s professing children lllld UQ fight to shed blood, under any circumstances, UJUI tllO Church of God would bring judgment uponit«*lf for its wicked ness in this matter. The moderator tapped tho belt. The peace man elevated his voice to ft rather belligerent pitch,{and grew moiejdeuunciatory than ever, until, after another tap or two of the bell, he was apparently fright ened down by a UffilVtou*', though miUstiucU and we suspect misunderstood, “ Aimm t” on the other side of the room. At the close of the devotional exercises, the meeting was merged into a business meeting, for the purpose of considering *he best means to adopt in future. M*. Chambers volunteered to obtain a day’s collection in his own church to meet expenses. Mr. Parker, a layman, followed in same very plain spoken remarks about ministers not doing their duty. It was, he said, the iftult of the clergy that these meetings were going down. They had abated their interest, and their congregations bad simply followed their example. There were some other causes of this decline, but tho chief cause was the one here referred. to. This speech put the clergy upon their mettle. Bov. Mr. Carden, Episcopalian, said it was a great fact thht any religious meeting, unless it was atteudedby NOYRMBRR 11, 156 L icnange—Nov. n. lOARD. the clergy, must and would decrease; but the decrease of this meeting was not wholly attributable to the delin quency ot the clergy. The fart was, this meeting had sadly departed from its original standard. Subject! of every description, war, slavery, and others, were boingin troduced, to the exclusion of Jesus, This was the great and withering mistake. Salvador} through Christ was the legitimate theme of these prayer meetings, and unless it could be acknowledged as such, he for one would cense to take any further part in them. The Kcv, J. Wheaton Smith, Baptist, then rose to ex plain his own reason for non-attendance. During the revival things went on in bisown congregation with ap parently leas need of labor on his part, so that he had Rome time for outride matters, but when the waters be gan to abate, he fuiiud that he wm needed at homo. Ho also proceeded to criticise the Spirit and character of the meetings themselves, cracking jokes, one, among others, at the expense of his pedo-Buptist brethren, and wound up by disagreeing with Mr. Carden ns to the propriety of preaching Christ constantly. Thero were some other subjects tlmt needed attention in the pulpit. Mr, Carden retired, apparently in disgust, and Mr, Pisdih '•'•v.'drdf't. i-xv*re<rin«» n t-i have th" Saviour’s power, in order that he might lay his hand upon the crazed brain of some fanatical disturbers of these meetings, ami say, “ peace, be still.” At this point there was a general uprising of the con gregation to leave, and the proceedings were somewhat summarily closed. The benediction was pronounced by the Rev. Mr. Kennard. Concert in Behalf of tiie Indians.—We invite the attention of our readers to the advertisement in smother column of a Grand Combination Concert, with roc-Hnthme. to be held at National Hall, this evening, in behalf of the Indians.
