THE ENLARGEMENT.

By Editor

Some of our correspondents speak this week quite earnestly in favor of a still further enlargement of the Review. We would say that four more pages could be added at proportionately less expense than the four which have been added. 1. The press work would cost no more. Our press is just large enough to take on eight pages, so that now we print one form of eight pages, and one of four. It would be no more work, and take no more time, to print two of eight. 2. In the matter of folding it would be an advantage, as the paper would be upon a whole sheet, and all cutting would be avoided. Paper and type-setting would be the only additional expenses. That it will be necessary eventually to enlarge to 16 pages, there can scarcely be any question. Shall we do it soon? Time is short. What is done must be done quickly. All the signs of the times indicate that we should make immediate preparation for a great work. And if there is duty in the matter, if the time has come to manifest more faith by another move in the way of enlargement, God will bless and sustain his people in it. We ask the brethren to take this matter into consideration, that whatever step is taken, it may be done deliberately and judiciously, as thus far, by the grace of God, we, as a people, have been enabled to move. The trustees would be glad to learn the minds of the brethren, that some decisive step may be taken by the time of the next Association meeting.
