And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of Heaven is at hand.

Camp-Meeting for New York and Pennsylvania Conference.

After a careful examination of all the openings that seemed to be worthy of attention, the camp-meeting committee decide that the best place for our meeting this year is at Kirkville, Onondaga Co., N. Y., on the same ground that we occupied two years since. The New York Central Railroad Co. furnish better facilities for reaching Kirkville this year than heretofore. The time table for Kirkville will be given soon through the Review.
We earnestly invite the labors of Bro. and sister White, and of such other help as may accompany them from the west, to preach to us the word of God. We will do what lies in our power to prevent burdens of other kinds from coming upon them, but we feel the need of their faithful testimonies, and we trust not to be disappointed.
We invite our brethren from all parts of our conference to rally to this meeting. Our general meeting comes only once a year, and we cannot afford to lose the good which is in store for us. We invite every church to come, and also every company of believers in whatever place they may be situated. Come with your tents and your bedding, prepared to take care of yourselves. Those who come alone should bring bedding, so that they can sleep in the large tent, and thus care for themselves. There will be a provision stand upon the ground.
We earnestly invite all our friends to prepare their hearts to seek God. Begin now by putting away all your idols, and by humbling your hearts before him. And remember that none should appear before God empty. Come prepared to do something in aid of every good work for which appeals may be made. Let us have a general rally to this feast of tabernacles. Our meeting will be held August 10-15.
