The Iowa Camp-Meeting.

By Uriah Smith

THIS meeting commenced at Newton, Iowa, according to appointment, June 3. Arriving Thursday, at 2 P. M., after twenty-four hours of continuous travel from Battle Creek, we found the second meeting of the session in progress. The meeting will not probably be quite as large as last year, but how many will be present cannot well be determined as yet, as a rain storm, in other respects very welcome, has delayed the coming of some. But the hearts of the brethren are in the work, and their sympathies are with the good cause in all its departments. Twenty-five tents are already up. The meeting has opened very encouragingly. The social meetings thus far have been spirited and interesting, and a good degree of feeling is manifested. U. S.
