LIGHT IN NEW ZEALAND.

ABOUT one year since a sister who works in the Review Office sent the Review and Herald and some tracts to a friend in New Zealand. The following is from a letter which she has recently received from her friend, which shows that the Sabbath question is being agitated in New Zealand:—

“I have a friend in the South of New Zealand who has recently left these parts, and has read your Review, &c., and is anxious that I should continue to send them to him. I should like my brother to have mine when he comes up. I am sure my friend would remit any expense it might be to you to send two copies of the Review. If I was sure he was likely to remain in one place I would send you his address; but he is an interpreter in the House of Lords, and only remains in Wellington three months in the year. He will pay the postage from here. I believe if he was in America he would become a true convert to your faith. I noticed the Sabbath question was agitated in our Church Gazette last week. I believe many are pondering the question. Our bishop has been challenged to answer the Sabbath question. He did so in the paper last week, but made a very, very lame attempt. I am going to mail him some of your pamphlets on the subject, “Who Changed the Sabbath,” “The Seventh Part of Time,” “God’s Answers to Man’s Excuses,” and the “Seven Reasons for Sunday-keeping Examined.” And as I shall send them anonymously I shall not get them back. Could you send me another copy of each? as I value them. Your interpretations of prophecy I am convinced are correct. I read many of them with widely different views from those I once entertained.”
