This Week’s Paper.

THE sermon on the first page, by our venerable and much-respected Bro. Pierce, is rich in thought, and will be read with interest and profit. The other matter on pp. 170, 171, is worthy of a close reading.
Eld. Andrews’ reports from Europe are received with joy, and are ever read by all our people with peculiar interest. But the statements in the present issue, relative to their late meeting at Neuchatel and the forty Sabbath-keepers in Prussia, fill us with joy, and give additional evidence that the time has fully come for the great work of the restitution of the Lord’s Sabbath among his true children in all the nations of the earth. Bro. Andrews has the fullest sympathy of his brethren in America; and we trust that thousands of prayers go up daily for the blessing of God upon his mission in Europe.
The first number of The Voice of Truth, mentioned by Bro. Haskell, will be issued about New Years, when the new postal law takes effect. We have thousands of back numbers of the REVIEW AND HERALD which are free to the Tract Societies to use as samples of The Voice of Truth, and to scatter to the people in their labors of love. We will also furnish sample copies of the Health Reformer free to the tract and missionary workers.
The enterprise is a great one. And while our Publishing Association proposes to furnish The Voice of Truth and the Health Reformer to the T. and M. Societies for half price, and pay the postage, as required by the new law, every branch of the Tract Society, and every individual friend of the cause should labor to the point of obtaining as many full-paying subscribers as possible.
Pages 174 and 175, with their general articles and reports of progress, are good and cheering. While evidences of apostasy are visible all about us, how cheering to the toilers is the evidence of progress in our work in all the wide field. Wisconsin seems to be especially visited with mercy drops, while the extreme States of Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, and California, report progress in this issue. God speed the work everywhere.
