Seventh-day Adventists.

By John Norton Loughborough

WHAT OTHERS SAY OF THEM.

BEFORE me lies the Messiah's Herald of Nov. 18. It was formerly the Advent Herald. It is published by that class of Adventists who were engaged with William Miller in giving the first angel's message of Rev. 14:6-9, but, who have not adopted the third message of the same chapter and the views peculiar to Seventh-day Adventists. Having read in the Advent Review the articles which we have copied into the SIGNS on the rise of S. D. Adventists, they reprint the one giving an account of the publishing work of our people, and, in a friendly introduction to the article, they thus give us the palm: "From 'a brief sketch of their origin, progress and principles' now being published in Advent Review and Sabbath Herald we learn some things respecting them which may be of interest to our readers, and suggestive of what might be accomplished by a more efficient organization among ourselves."
