EDITORIAL NOTES.

By Editor

Those who design to attend the camp-meeting in Battle Creek, Oct. 2-9, will be much pleased to learn that Eld. J. N. Andrews from Europe will be with us at that time. See his communication in another column. Eld. J. N. Loughborough also, after his ten years' labor in California, will attend this meeting preparatory to his departure for England.

We have received reports of the camp-meeting at Grand Rapids, Wis., as published in two numbers of the Wisconsin State Journal of Sept. 14 and Sept. 17, 1878. The reports are full and well written, and embody a large amount of information respecting the history and progress of our work, which we are glad to know has gone before the readers of that paper.

Bro. Waggoner sends us a private note respecting the camp-meeting at Orion, Mich. There are twenty-seven tents up, including the large tents. The State Fair at Detroit has drawn away much of the outside attendance, and unusual storms have caused some interruptions in the meeting; but a deep and solemn feeling rests upon those in attendance, and a number are starting for the first time in the service of God. The interest was still increasing at the date of his writing, Sept. 21.

By direction of the General Conference Committee, the camp-meetings in Kansas have all been postponed to the dates given in this number, so that they can have help from the General Conference, and that Eld. Ayers can attend the General Conference in Battle Creek, Oct. 2-15.

THE FAMILY HEALTH ANNUAL for 1879 is now ready. Our people are so well acquainted with this publication that a particular description need not be given. We only need to say that its table of contents is unusually rich, and in the value of its matter it surpasses any of its predecessors.
