Conference Statistics.

We are not able to present statistics showing the present standing of the General Conference from the fact that some of the State Conference secretaries have failed to report. Ever since organization was adopted, we have labored under this difficulty, that those whose duty it was to make the reports called for by the Conference constitutions, have, from some cause, more or less neglected to make them. This has been a crying evil from the very commencement. It has increased every year, till now it would be difficult to find an epithet that would fitly describe it. Will the secretaries of the following Conferences forward to the REVIEW AND HERALD, immediately, the statistics of their respective Conferences, so that the General Conference report can be completed; namely, Maine, New England, Vermont, Wisconsin, Illinois, Kansas, Missouri, and California. The shortness of the notice may be a partial excuse in the present instance; but whatever the cause of the failure, the statistics are wanted forthwith.
GEN. CONF. SECRETARY.
