Sabbath Reform

By Editor

Those coming to Conference will find at the Review Office a committee of arrangements to assign them homes during the meetings.

We notice a series of articles in the World's Crisis designed to prove that we are now living under the seventh of the seven last plagues! One of our preachers suggests that those articles constitute their own refutation; for when we reach the seventh plague, it will need no argument to show that we are under it.

SABBATH REFORM. The movement in favor of the true Sabbath has reached such a magnitude, and the arguments by which it is supported have been reduced to such perspicuity, that the representatives of the popular religious views of the day, are starting back in alarm, and apparently endeavoring to repress as much as in their power, the agitation upon the subject. A correspondent of the Watchman and Reflector lately called out in that paper an article in defense of Sunday-keeping. An able refutation of this, as we see by the Sabbath Recorder, was at once sent to the Reflector by Eld. N. V. Hull, Seventh-day Baptist, but was rejected without note or comment; and we give in another column, an article in favor of the Sabbath, rejected by the Independent, which rejection is defended, more it seems to us by a mere excuse, than by good reason.
