TACUBAYA.—We had an excellent meeting yesterday, when we celebrated the ordinances with the little church here. Ten of the nineteen members are away from the city, having moved to different parts of the country to help establish the work, but those who are left are of good courage. Two Mexican sisters who have been coming to our Sabbath-school for some time, arose, and expressed their wish to unite with the church. So far as I know, no one had ever spoken to them about it, and it was a surprise to us all. We called a little after-meeting, and talked with the sister who has always been a Catholic, and she seemed to be ready for the step, according to the unanimous opinion of our church committee. I am going to her home to-day to talk with her two grandsons, who also desire baptism. They are quite young boys. The other lady is a Baptist, and has been a Protestant for some time.

We have sent Brother and Sister Godinez to San Luis Potosi to help Dr. Erkenbeck, who is opening up a medical mission at that place. Dr. Fattebert has changed his location in Celaya, and is now registered. Brother Caviness is still at Torreon. They have organized a Sabbath-school of thirteen members, and the number will soon be increased

to seventeen, as Brother and Sister Colunga are going to move there with their family. This brother took one hundred and four subscriptions for the paper last month, besides his other sales.
