The N. Y. Camp-Meeting.
By Uriah Smith
BATTLE CREEK, SEPT. 18. We have just reached Battle Creek, in company with Bro. and sister White, sister Ings and Bro. Haskell, from the New York camp-ground, and finding the paper held over one day on account of its omission next week, we have opportunity to say just a word to our readers. Bro. White endured the journey well and is improving in health. The New York meeting was in many respects most excellent, the only drawback being a failure of many to see themselves in their true light, and feel their real need. But they had a love for the truth, rejoiced in the presentation of the evidences of our hope, and at the time our company were obliged to leave, were, we believe, in a condition to make the remainder of the meeting an occasion of great spiritual advancement. The committees had spared no pains nor efforts in behalf of the meeting, and deserve all credit for their self-sacrificing labors. The weather was fine; the testimonies of the brethren and sisters, good. Excellent reports were furnished the Watertown and Utica papers by sister B. L. Whitney and her able assistants. They will give a more extended account of the meeting for the next REVIEW. U. S.
