Earlier text: NO CAMP-MEETING FOR NEW YORK

VERMONT

By I. Sanborn

Tent No. 1, West Townshend.

Since our last report, our meetings have been broken up some. Last Sabbath the brethren and sisters from Jamaica and Windham were present, also a good number of the interested ones in this vicinity were here to enjoy the blessing of more than usual magnitude. A few kept their first Sabbath. The Lord came very near to us. The services of the entire day were of deep interest. Our Bible-class and Sabbath-school has become a fixed institution, a part of the day's programme not to be omitted. God bless the dear children.

Notwithstanding the eager desire of the people to hear, we find nearly all slow to move, even when convinced. We are visiting from house to house, which at this point of the work is our strong-hold, in connection with prayer, in reaching the people. We hope for more decisions this week.

We continue tent-labor one week longer, and then ship the tent to the camp-ground, but we cannot go ourselves, as the interest here demands attention. We are urged to return to Weston as soon as we can do so. The two tent-meetings have created a necessity for all the work we can do until next tent season. We very much desire to attend the camp-meeting, but must deny ourselves that pleasure and profit for the purpose of saving others. The two sermons one week ago last Sunday brought nearly the whole community to a decision in favor of God's holy day. May the Lord give courage to act.

Pray that we may have grace, health, and strength to do the work well.

I. SANBORN.

LETTER FROM ENGLAND.

The following is from a private letter written from England, July 23. After acknowledging the receipt of a letter from Sr. White, Bro. Ings says:—

I have faith to believe that He who has so many times raised up his worn servants will still have a care for you, and it shall be my constant prayer that God may bless you in restoring you both to health.

He then continues:—

My first visit in England was to Southampton, where I have several cousins. I gave them reading matter, and I was astonished to see the effect our publications had. I brought quite a quantity with me; but the demand was so great that I found it necessary to order more from America, and now I am expecting the second lot every day, and find myself in great need of them. It seems to me that this field has been neglected so long that God would show us as a people how far we are behind his providence, by using those not in the truth to scatter his message. People wanted tracts to give to the members of their churches; others wanted them to give to their neighbors; some wanted them to send away, and to-day hundreds are reading who knew nothing about these things two months ago.

One woman came twelve miles to visit her sister. She started in a rain storm. Her friends tried to persuade her not to come, but she said something seemed to impel her. She came, and remained two days, and went back rejoicing in the truth. I have since visited her. I think I never saw a person more soundly converted. She told me that on her way back she felt like running to tell her husband and neighbors what precious truths she had found. She says the Bible is a new book to her. Her husband is not a professor, but does not oppose her.

She has a good influence in the neighborhood. When I visited her, she had scattered tracts, and several were interested. She wished me to go with her to a chapel of Bible Christians. We found the congregation assembled, but no minister. I was urged to use the time. Tremblingly I explained the second chapter of Daniel. The interest was great. An influential lady in the church invited me to her house, and requested me to go over the same ground in the hearing of her husband and others who were not at the chapel. After this we again went to the meeting-house, where we found quite an audience, but no minister. I was again invited to use the time, which I did, explaining Matt. 24. The Lord helped me. I was urged to stay longer, but promised to mail them tracts that would give them light on the Bible. I was surprised to see such interest. They said they never knew there were such things in the Bible before. I left the interest in the hands of Sr. K., who will be a shining light in that section. I expect to hear of good results from her labors.

She ordered the REVIEW and between four and five dollars’ worth of books and tracts. She will pay s. B.; and wants to be baptized. Now I mention this circumstance to show how the way is open for a minister here, and that people are just as anxious to hear the truth as they are in America.

I have spent several weeks in doing missionary work. I have visited nearly two hundred families. I am treated with respect, and have found many interesting cases. Several are convinced; and if a course of lectures could be given I should look for a harvest of souls. Two have decided to obey the truth, and I have just heard that another has taken a stand. I have just received a letter from a person to whom I have given tracts. He wants the Life of Wm. Miller, Nature and Destiny of Man, and other publications, and says he will forward the money on learning the cost. Yesterday I received another order. In some cases I have been forced to accept money for tracts, and in others persons have desired to pay for them; but I buy the truth and sell it not. (That is, tracts.)

I am in good health and courage, but am puzzled to know what to do. I have asked in prayer to be directed. I have thought I would remain here three weeks longer, then if no special light came I should return to Switzerland. I shall try, by the help of God, while I am here, to prepare the way for Bro. Loughborough, so that he may have a foothold. He would find many friends to the truth here. The way would be opened for lectures; and, this being a seaport where vessels are constantly leaving for all parts of the globe, it would make an excellent point for doing missionary labor.

I find as good people in England as in any country I have been in, yet all the medium class have all they can do to live, and in consequence it might be quite a while before a mission here would be self-sustaining; but I think when the people see the truth they will be more stable than those in America. Of course, obstacles and trials would be found here as well as elsewhere; but I believe God is ready to set his hand to the work in this island.

We shall all welcome Bro. Loughborough and W. C. White, and their wives, on this side of the ocean; and if it should be in the order of God to send his worn servants here, they too would receive a hearty greeting from all of like precious faith.

PACIFIC COAST.

[Abridged from the SIGNS OF THE TIMES.]

Reno, Nev., Aug. 12. Twenty-three meetings have now been held in Reno. The immortality question and the Sabbath have been canvassed quite thoroughly. The first Sabbath meeting here was held Aug. 10. Twenty-five children and adults were present. Ten adults signed the covenant. Eld. Loughborough will remain here another week.

Yountville, Cal. When Eld. Healey commenced meetings in Yountville, there was a great deal of prejudice, which had been caused by false teaching and misrepresentations. But a good interest has been worked up, so that at date of writing, Aug. 19, the attendance ranged from fifty to one hundred and fifty. As this is a country place, many come quite a distance, some walking five miles.

MICHIGAN

Pontiac, Aug. 26.

This is the sixth week of our stay here, yet the interest continues good. Quite a number have already decided in favor of the truth, and others are “almost persuaded.” We hope for a favorable decision from them. In the meantime, we shall labor to build up those who have already taken their stand with us, and try to interest others. Opposition discourses are preached every Sunday, which affords us a good opportunity to review the points already canvassed. Two discourses on the Sabbath question are advertised for next Sunday.

We are of good courage in the Lord.

J. O. Corliss.

Greenville, Aug. 30.

Our meetings in the tent at this place will close Sept. 1. It is expected that another full course of lectures will be given in the new church which the brethren have purchased, commencing about Oct. 1. In the interval, regular weekly services will be held. Two years ago the church property, including the rectory, was valued at $3,800. All was obtained for $1,600. The church is lighted with gas, and is centrally and pleasantly located, being just opposite the M. E. church, and in the same block as the first National Bank.

The interest in our meetings still keeps up. On Sunday evening last, our fifty-sixth service, some think five hundred people were out; there were many more than could be seated. The regular weekly attendance is unvarying. A portion of the ministry and the press are exceedingly bitter in their expressions regarding us. Some things said are very favorable. Our friends are quite decided, and the dividing line of sentiment is marked. We have baptism to-morrow. About a dozen are fully with us. Our faith grasps many more. It is only a question of time and earnest labor. The great wall of prejudice against our faith, not against our people, is being dispelled. The subject for next Sunday evening is Spiritual Gifts.

Brethren, still remember the work here.

D. H. Lamson. H. M. Kenyon.

A Layman's Practical Speech on Ministers Wanted for Maine

A LAYMAN made a sharp, practical speech in the Congregational Conference in Maine. His theme was, “The Ministers Wanted for Maine.” He divided his speech, sermon-wise, into three heads: “1. We need brave men. 2. We need trained men. 3. We need men that will stick.” Under the third head he discoursed of “ministerial tramps.” Under the second he avowed his belief that men whose “greatest possession was a Bagster Bible and a stock of stories could not be well-instructed scribes.”

Bishop McLaren on Laxity of Morals and Atheism

BISHOP McLAREN, of Illinois, referred in his address to the late Convention of his diocese to the laxity of morals and the atheism which exists this day, and said one cause was to be found in the teachings of smooth-tongued pulpit orators, who have rung the changes on the word “love” until they have given the idea that God cannot discriminate between right and wrong.

Miss Emily Faithful on Extravagance and Luxury

Miss Emily Faithful is a well-known English philanthropist. In a recent lecture she spoke of extravagance in modern life, and said that luxury is becoming a perfect passion among English men and women, and that they have not the taste for simple pleasures, while in their pursuit of gold they are losing sight of the higher and nobler characteristics.

Obituary Notices.

“Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.”

Died in Trowbridge, Allegan Co., Mich., Aug. 22, 1878, of consumption, Helen M. Foster, aged 38 years. Sr. Foster, who was a member of the church in Allegan, had been an observer of the Sabbath for many years. Through intense and long-protracted suffering as the result of her disease, death had lost to her all its terrors, and for weeks previous to her final decease she had looked forward to it as a happy release from suffering. Her last moments gave clear and satisfactory evidence that she knew in whom she had trusted, and that she had a well-founded hope of a part in the better resurrection. The funeral discourse was delivered by the writer. W. H. LITTLEJOHN.

Fell asleep in Jesus, Aug. 21, 1878, at Augusta, Mich., my companion, S. S. Bartlett, aged 49 years, 5 months, and 13 days. We laid her to rest Aug. 23, with the blessed assurance that she will have a part in the first resurrection. She embraced the third angel’s message about eighteen years ago, under the labors of Eld. T. M. Steward, at Cascade, Wis. G. W. BARTLETT.

The New England Camp-meeting.

By Uriah Smith

THIS meeting opened very encouragingly Aug. 28. It will be a larger meeting of Sabbath-keepers than was ever before held in New England. The growth of the cause here shows itself in this respect. There are already a larger number of tents up than at any previous meeting, and all are not up yet; and it is expected that there will be a much larger attendance from without.

The brethren have come together with a desire to be active in the work, as was shown in the social meeting this morning, when ninety testimonies were borne in a little over half an hour.

The congregation last evening numbered from six to eight hundred; which is remarkable for so early a stage of the meeting, this being only the second day. U. S.

The Colorado Tent.

By James White

SUNDAY evening, August 25, we spoke at the Colorado Tent at Boulder City, giving an outline of the faith and hope of Seventh-day Adventists. The congregation listened for more than an hour, paying good attention. Twenty-one have signed the covenant, and it is expected more will unite with them. Elder Cornell remains here another week, when he expects to move the tent to Georgetown, and close the tent season at Longmont. We design to visit Georgetown September 22, and speak in the tent the evening of that day, before leaving for the Michigan camp-meeting the 24th.

Mission to Great Britain.

By James White

WE have called for One Hundred Thousand Dollars for the cause in Great Britain, to be paid in two years. This seems like a large sum; but there are not less than twenty thousand persons who should take part in raising this sum, and the time is long in which to accomplish it. Divide $100,000 among 20,000 persons, and the result is $5.00 for each one to raise in the period of two years, or less than 20 cents a month, and less than 5 cents a week, or 8 mills or four-fifths of a cent in each secular day in the period of two years.

In such a worthy enterprise, so easily accomplished with united efforts, every man, woman, and child in the ranks of Seventh-day Adventists will wish to take part. We shall see.

The Dime Tabernacle.

By James White

We are glad to learn from Bro. H. W. Kellogg that the foundation of the Dime Tabernacle is being laid, and by Elder Smith that already more than one thousand dollars has been received. All the real friends of the cause should come to the camp-meetings with their donations ready. The receipts for the Tabernacle in the last REVIEW AND HERALD Supplement look very encouraging. We expect to see ten thousand dollars receipted in the next.

The Tabernacle should be completed so as to be dedicated as early as December 7 and 8. In order for this, ready means are wanted to purchase material and to hire laborers to advantage and hasten the work. Our wealthy brethren and sisters should each make a liberal donation besides the dime a month, or $1.20 a year. We include the members of our family as follows:—

James White, $1.20; Ellen G. White, $1.20; Mary S. Chase, $1.20; Addie Walling, $1.20; May Walling, $1.20; James White, $100; Ellen G. White, $100.

Let none labor under sufferings of mind through fear that too much will be raised for the Dime Tabernacle. The friends of the cause may rest assured that the Tabernacle will be built and furnished respectably and in the most economical manner possible. And should more be raised than is needed, the surplus will be put into the treasury of our Foreign Missions. So let the dimes, the dollars, the fives, the tens, the twenties, the fifties, and the hundreds come in at the earliest date possible. A full report will be given by the General Conference Committee when the work shall be completed.

JAMES WHITE.

The School of Hygiene.

The regular course of lectures in the School of Hygiene begins about Sept. 15; a preliminary course of two weeks begins with the regular College term. This school was organized last winter for the purpose of affording those who desire ample opportunity to become familiar with the principles of hygiene in all its branches.

There are hundreds of young men and women who ought to embrace this opportunity for fitting themselves for greater usefulness. The course of instruction is made both profitable and interesting. Those wishing further information should send for a circular of the School of Hygiene.

Gems of Song.

By E. R. Jones; E. P. Daniels

We have now used “Gems of Song” in our meetings for some time; and for the purpose for which the work is designed, we consider it far superior to anything yet published by our people. Attractive in appearance, and of solid worth, it is indeed “Gems of Song.” The people are pleased with it, and buy it readily. It is a help to our meetings which we cannot well do without.

General Meeting for Kentucky and Tennessee.

By S. Osborn

The meeting of the Conference and Tract Society of Kentucky and Tennessee will be held at Powder Mills, Hart Co., Ky., commencing Wednesday, Oct. 23, and continuing till Tuesday, Oct. 29. Bro. Canright or Bro. Haskell will be with us.

This meeting has been deferred to the above date in order to secure help from the General Conference. Let us have a general rally of all the Sabbath-keepers that can possibly attend. Let your delegates be appointed immediately. Teams will be at Rowlett’s Station Oct. 22 and 23, to convey passengers twelve miles to the place of meeting. I will try to get a reduction of fare on the Louisville and Nashville railroad. Those coming by railroad should address A. P. Williams, Rio, Hart Co., Ky.

Do not forget to bring your friends to this meeting.

The tent is to be pitched near the Powder Mills church long enough before the Conference to get an interest started, and a protracted effort will be made in connection with the Conference. S. Osborn, Pres.

Sabbath-keepers in South-western Kansas.

By W. E. Dawson

I wish to learn the addresses of all Sabbath-keepers living in that part of the State lying south and west of Salina on the K. P. railroad.

I desire to open correspondence with the brethren in this portion of the State, not only that we may become acquainted, but also that I may learn of the best fields for labor during the approaching fall and winter.

Please address me at Rush Center, Rush Co., Kansas. W. E. Dawson.

Sanitarium Crackers.

The Sanitarium bakery is manufacturing a variety of crackers, which are sold all over our country from Boston to St. Paul. They are mostly taken by others than our own people. They are made in the most approved way for healthfulness and nutrition. For shortening, nothing but good butter is used, and the plain crackers, when once used, become almost indispensable to dyspeptics, and are really good for any one. They are crisp and palatable, and the most healthful bread that can be made; are without yeast or shortening of any kind. There is no trouble in keeping them through warm weather.

Our people should avail themselves of this benefit, and at the same time patronize their own institution.

The crackers will be furnished at the following rates per lb.:—

Oat-meal crackers, shortened and sweetened, 12 cts. “ “ plain, 10 cts. Graham “ shortened, 10 cts. “ “ plain, 10 cts. White “ plain, (passover bread), 10 cts.

A discount of one-fourth will be made on orders of 30 lbs. or more. Address, SANITARIUM, Battle Creek, Mich.

Chief Justice Thompson on Clergymen and Human Depravity

The late Chief Justice Thompson, of Pennsylvania, once said about the clergymen: “If those who preach had been lawyers previous to entering the ministry, they would know and say far more about the depravity of the human heart than they do.”
