Extracts of Letters.

BRO. N. MEAD writes from Washington, N. H.:—“We are still striving to obey God in keeping his commandments. We are decided never to give over the struggle until we are overcomers. The present truth is still precious. The Kingdom and eternal life we trust will ever be our watchword till Jesus comes. We desire that the truth may spread till the number is made up that shall stand on Mount Zion.”

Bro. Bunnel writes from Claremont, N. H.:—“I am glad to receive the paper weekly. Hope it will be sustained till Jesus comes to reward the faithful.”

Bro. Alfred Wiley writes from Mass., Feb. 24, 1856:—“I love the Review because it brings the word of the Lord rightly divided, it becomes to me a friend to encourage when faith seems weak, to instruct when ignorant, to admonish when out of the way, or in neglect of duty, and because it is a fearless defender of the truths of the Bible, especially those that are to prepare us to stand before the Son of man. Though I am poor in spirit and in this world's goods, my heart is with you. James says, [chap. v. 16,] ‘Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another.’ Now I frankly confess my neglect to send what was due for the paper. I thank you for the kind hint that I was, or should be, in debt at the close of Vol. VII. Please receive this from a lover of the truth.”
