The Prophetic Watchman.

THIS paper was started during the great advent movement of 1840-44, in Rochester, N. Y., by Eld. J. V. Himes, under the title of The Voice of Truth, and the editorship given to Joseph Marsh. After the passing of the time, it espoused the doctrine of the Age to Come, and Eld. Marsh, having got it into his hands, continued its publication under the title of The Advent Harbinger. Wishing to discard the term Advent, its name was changed to The Prophetic Expositor, and then to The Millennial Harbinger, and Prophetic Expositor. It was subsequently sold to T. G. Newman, and, under the title of The Millennial Harbinger and Bible Expositor, was published by him first in Seneca Falls, N. Y., then in Detroit, Mich., and finally in Harvard, Ill. He had just advertised a removal to Albion, Mich., when he sold the paper to J. M. Stephenson and H. V. Reed, who continued its publication in Harvard, Ill., under the name of Prophetic Watchman and Herald of the Kingdom. Issuing it as a new periodical, they published about two volumes when H. V. Reed retired from an interest in the paper, and J. M. Stephenson has since been making efforts for the formation of an Association for its continuance. It is now moved to Indianapolis, Ind., and, though the name remains unchanged, is again commenced as a new publication, numbered as Vol. 1, No. 1, J. M. Stephenson, Editor. It is a small-sized quarto, containing, perhaps, half as much matter as the Review. Terms $3.00 per annum in advance.
