Some person made inquiries concerning the facts stated in an article of mine in the Youth's Instructor, headed, An Item of History. Being from home at the time, my family forwarded the letter, and it was lost.

Meeting of the S. D. A. Publishing Association.

By J. M. ALDRICH

THE Seventh-day Adventist Publishing Association will hold its seventh annual session at Battle Creek, Mich., Thursday, May 16, 1867, at 9 o'clock, A. M., to deliberate for the general interests of the Association, elect officers, and transact any other business that may come before the meeting.

PROPOSED CHANGE IN THE CONSTITUTION. It is proposed to change Section 1, of Art. XII, which now reads: “These by-laws may be amended, repealed, or added to, at any meeting of this Association, provided the notice of such change, repeal or amendment, shall be given with the notice of the meeting,” by striking out all after the word Association, and inserting in their place, the words, “by a three-fourths vote of the members present;” so that as amended, it shall read, “These by-laws may be amended, repealed, or added to, at any meeting of this Association, by a three-fourths vote of the members present.”

By order of the Trustees.

J. M. ALDRICH, Secretary.

Sabbath Reform

By Editor

Those coming to Conference will find at the Review Office a committee of arrangements to assign them homes during the meetings.

We notice a series of articles in the World's Crisis designed to prove that we are now living under the seventh of the seven last plagues! One of our preachers suggests that those articles constitute their own refutation; for when we reach the seventh plague, it will need no argument to show that we are under it.

SABBATH REFORM. The movement in favor of the true Sabbath has reached such a magnitude, and the arguments by which it is supported have been reduced to such perspicuity, that the representatives of the popular religious views of the day, are starting back in alarm, and apparently endeavoring to repress as much as in their power, the agitation upon the subject. A correspondent of the Watchman and Reflector lately called out in that paper an article in defense of Sunday-keeping. An able refutation of this, as we see by the Sabbath Recorder, was at once sent to the Reflector by Eld. N. V. Hull, Seventh-day Baptist, but was rejected without note or comment; and we give in another column, an article in favor of the Sabbath, rejected by the Independent, which rejection is defended, more it seems to us by a mere excuse, than by good reason.
