The prayer meetings that have
been carried on in Dublin for some
time paat, first at one residence
then at another, seem to be meet-
ing with extraordinary auecess.
Many converts have been made,
who have signified tbeir desire to
join with this or that church, but
the latest and most remarkable suc-
cess ever yet attained by any meet-
ing in Dublin is the conversion
to a better life of two fallen women
who sent word that they desired
the meeting to pray for them.
Thursday sttferooon a number of
ladies and gentlemen who have
been prominent in managing the
meetinga got together and went out
to the place of residence of the two
unfortunates and ‘.here held a
