Tract and Missionary Department.

Tract Work in Boston, Mass.

I AVAIL myself of the privilege granted to the members of the Tract and Missionary Society, in the REVIEW of June 4, and for the encouragement of those who feel an interest in the different Tract Societies, would state, that we here in Boston, feel an increasing interest in the Tract Society. Those who have been inactive in the past, have come forward, and taken hold of the work in real earnest. Last night was our monthly missionary meeting. During the month, each member keeps a record of missionary labors, and the last Sunday of each month their reports are read. It was truly encouraging to see the reports come in, showing an increase of several hundred pages of tracts distributed, and a number of new names added to the list of subscribers for the REVIEW, Reformer, and the Instructor. We feel a general desire to take part in this work, and help sound the alarm that is to gather out a people who shall go in to the marriage supper of the lamb.
Within the past few weeks, two more precious souls met with us on the Sabbath, fully determined with the grace of God assisting them, to obey every precept of the decalogue. We hope to be remembered in the prayers of God's people. M. WOOD.
