(Abridged from the SIGNS OF THE TIMES.)

San Francisco.

The tent-meetings here closed June 9. Sixty-nine discourses have been given, and thirty-four names added to the covenant of commandment-keepers.
On Sabbath the churches of Oakland and San Francisco held a union Sabbath-school and meeting in the tent. There were between one hundred and fifty and two hundred adult Sabbath-keepers together. These, with the youth and children, made quite a tent full. It was the largest collection of Christian Sabbath-keepers ever assembled in San Francisco.
Sr. White was present and enjoyed freedom in speaking the truth, and her testimony told upon the people.
Brn. Loughborough and Healey will now hold a series of meetings in Oakland.

Red Bluff and Vacaville.

The meetings which Bro. B. A. Stephens has held at Red Bluff closed May 26. Thirteen signed the covenant. This church is much scattered, some of its members living from twelve to seventy miles away; yet their courage is good.
May 29 to June 4, Bro. S. was at Vacaville, and preached seven times. The friends seemed much encouraged. He will now hold meetings in Rocklin, Placer county, where some have recently embraced the truth through reading.
