This Week's Paper.

By Editor

This paper will speak for itself if the reader will give it opportunity; but we are apprehensive that a portion of the interesting and important matter may by some be inadvertently passed by unless particular attention is called to it. We therefore feel disposed to name a few articles which the reader should by no means pass by.
1. Spurgeon on the Law. Here will be found many rare and beautiful thoughts on this important subject. New views are given us of the sacredness and holiness of God's great law.
2. The article on Baptism, by Bro. Waggoner. The whole series of papers on this subject should be carefully studied. It will be found profitable.
3. The report from Bro. Andrews, giving an account of the condition and prospects of the work in Europe. He is not a man to misstate facts, or overdraw the picture; and such reports from that field are cheering indeed.
4. The Progress Department, comprising pages 6 and 7, with its twenty-seven reports, no one interested in the progress of the work can afford to omit.
5. The third page has a claim upon the attention of the reader, because its articles are short and to the point.
6. The inside editorial pages, containing articles from Brn. Haskell, Canright, Stone, and others, all will want to read.
7. In short, we believe the reader will be better satisfied not to omit any of it.
We have received, just too late for this paper, interesting and encouraging reports from Minnesota, Alabama, Texas, and New York.
We have many inquiries on hand from correspondents waiting for answer either by mail or through the REVIEW. They would have been answered before this, but our time has been so exceedingly filled up with other necessary duties, that we could not attend to matters of correspondence as we would have been glad to do. We hope now to be able to attend to them soon.
The Biblical Lectures in the College were resumed, Monday, April 15, according to previous announcement. The attendance is smaller than during the last term, as was expected, so many having left for their homes, or to make preparation for the summer's work in the field. Six new names are added, and the class will number about fifty—a very fair attendance for the spring term.
