Acknowledgment.

By J. M. A.

We are permitted to acknowledge this week, the receipt of some liberal donations to the Publishing Association.

Sister Mary E. Beach of Norfolk, Ct., sends a draft of $50.00. Bro. E. Goodwin of Oswego, N. Y., sends a draft of $470.87;—it being the legacy of Bro. Richard Gorsline. Others send smaller amounts. This is indeed commendable, and worthy of imitation.

Bro. Gorsline, we trust, will receive his reward at the resurrection of the just; and may the other donors receive "an hundred fold now in this time, and in the world to come eternal life."

There are doubtless many thousand dollars yet in the ranks of Seventh-day Adventists, that ought to be appropriated immediately to the cause of present truth. And who knows of any better, safer or more appropriate place for depositing the Lord's money, than with the S. D. A. Pub. Association? This Association is now a fixed fact,—fixed, not only by legal enactment, but fixed in the purpose and providence of God, as the prime agency for the advancement of his cause. Hence here is a way duly prepared and marked out,—and in this week's Review, a noble example is given—for such of our brethren as may have the laudable desire to impart of their substance toward the advancement of the cause of present truth, either by immediate donations, or by bequest.
