National Camp-Meeting.
By James White
THE great camp-meeting to be held at Battle Creek, Mich., October 2-9, may be properly called, The National Meeting of the Seventh-day Adventists. Relative to this our annual feast of tabernacles we wish to say,—
1. It will be the largest convocation of those who revere the ancient Sabbath of the Lord that has ever assembled on the American continent. The meeting is purposely put at a late date, after the season for tent-meetings has closed, excepting in the Southern States, in order that there might be a general attendance of our ministers. Elder Loughborough is expected to be present at this General Conference and camp-meeting, on his way to England.
2. The weather may be very fine, it may be stormy and cold. All who come should be prepared for the worst. Underclothes, overcoats, shawls, thick shoes and boots, rubbers, buffalo robes, and heavy blankets, will be very much needed if the weather should be cold, and would do no harm in camp in case of warm and pleasant weather. And each tent company should prepare to put up a stove in case the weather should be rough.
3. Let the Great Central Camp-meeting for 1878 be a mammoth gathering. We shall look for family tents from the several States, especially from adjoining States. And the brethren should bring their children and friends, in the earnest hope that they will be converted to God and his truth at this meeting.
4. Lastly, but not least, come in season and stay until the camp breaks. We always disliked to see such a meeting peaked at both ends. Let the beginning and ending of this important camp-meeting be as square as a brick. And may all our brethren and sisters come praying that the Master will come to the feast.
James White.
The Camp-meeting.
It is expected that the coming camp-meeting in this place will be a large one, perhaps the largest ever held by our people. Therefore let all contribute what they can toward the supply of tents that will be needed. Let all who have tents bring them. And if there are any who cannot come themselves, but can spare tents, let them send them. The committee will be responsible for the transportation and proper care of the tents, and will rent them for their owners if they can. And let not those who have no tents fail to come on that account. Come, tents or no tents. Bring plenty of bedding, and tent-room or other lodging-room will be provided for all.
Camp-meeting Tickets.
By Editor
The General Passenger agent of the M. C. R. R. will issue certificates to those who design to attend the camp-meeting at Battle Creek, entitling the holder thereof to fare at the rate of two cents a mile for the round trip. We send a quantity of these to the elders of our churches in Michigan. Those who cannot obtain them in this way should order from this Office immediately as many as they will want to use. These must be presented to the ticket agent when the tickets are called for, one for each ticket, and can be used only on Oct. 2, 3, and 4, and 9 and 10, by those coming to the camp-meeting on those days. This arrangement applies to all divisions of the M. C. R. R.
Those coming over the Chicago and Lake Huron R. R. can purchase round-trip tickets at half fare, good from Oct. 1 to 16.
Note to Brethren in Missouri.
By J. G. Wood
Brethren will remember that the regular time for our quarterly meetings is Oct. 5 and 6. Let there be a general attendance of all our scattered brethren at these meetings. Come prepared to work. See that your S. B. pledges are paid. Bring in your T. and M. reports, and I suggest that this would be a good time to look after the interests of your Sabbath-schools. J. G. Wood.
To Indiana S. B. Treasurers and District Treasurers of T. and M. Society.
By S. H. Lane
LET all S. B. money be sent to the Conference treasurer, Dr. Wm. Hill, Rochester, Fulton county, Ind., either by draft on New York, post-office money order, or registered letter.
All T. and M. money to E. A. Wilhelm, Bourbon, Marshall county, Ind., either by post-office money order or in registered letter.

Illinois, Attention.
By L. A. L. Colcord
At the next annual meeting of our State Conference, our co-workers may expect to hear read a list of names of those whose duty it is to report to me each quarter, and who have faithfully performed their duty. Also, if need be, there may be expected a list of those whose work has been negligently done. Therefore, at this early date I say to one and all, Be prompt.
