SALINAS, CALIFORNIA.

By A. D. Benton, Frank Lamb

LAST Sunday we held our first temperance meeting at Buena Vista school-house. One was added to the Teetotal Pledge, and four to the Anti-whisky Pledge. Quite an interest was manifested. We elected a leader and a secretary. We have reason to believe that the temperance work here will be a success.
A Vigilant Missionary society has also been started and $18.00 were subscribed. They send for twelve copies of the Signs now, and will swell the list as soon as possible. The people are poor, but anxious to do all they can. The Sabbath-school is well attended. Two more here request baptism.
Bro. Lamb is trying to start an interest at Castroville, two miles from here.
