NEW ENGLAND.

NEW IPSWICH, N. H., AND DANVERS, MASS.—We have reason for encouragement in this Conference. We had an excellent meeting at New Ipswich. Eld. Goodrich has so much interest at Amherst that he cannot leave to help me. Bro. Israel has so much interest at Worcester that he cannot get away as we expected. Some new ones are taking hold in Boston. At Danvers I find the church in much better condition than I feared. House full Sabbath and Sunday. Have begun a short course of sermons on our faith. We hope for good. But I need more help. We are all anxious for Bro. Farnsworth to come. D. M. CANRIGHT.

WORCESTER.—Last Sabbath was a good day for the little company in this place. Eld. Robinson was with us, and preached from words found in 2 Peter 1: 12, which was a source of comfort, consolation, and edification to those present. Sunday afternoon he preached on the Sabbath question, taking as his text Isa. 62: 10. Although quite a stormy day, the mission rooms were well filled. The closest attention was paid to the word spoken. At the close of the discourse, several not of our faith confessed we had the Bible on our side in support of the Sabbath. There is still an interest to hear, and we hope that ultimately there will be others added such as will be an honor to the cause of Christ. The general attendance on the Sabbath ranges from thirty to thirty-five, fourteen of which have commenced to keep God’s commandments since our camp-meeting. The camp-meetings held here the past two years, and the labor performed heretofore by others, have left a most excellent impression upon the public mind. May God lead on the good work. M. WOOD.
