REVIVAL.—The revival meeting mentioned in our last as being in progress at the Presbyterian Church in this place, has been continued nightly since, and has increased daily in religious interest. A number have made a profession of religion and a multitude of young persons, each night, present themselves for prayer. The meeting up to Sabbath last was conducted by the Rev. Mr. Smith, pastor, assisted only by the ministers of Morristown. On Sabbath morning and evening Rev. C. H. Wiley, Bible Agent for East and Middle Tennessee, preached with wonderful clearness and power. There seems to be a special outpouring of the Divine Spirit, and we are rejoiced to see the members of other Churches taking so deep an interest in the services.
Behold how good and pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
