NEW YORK AND PENNSYLVANIA.

New York.
Pulaski.—With our director, Wm. H. Brown, I attended the quarterly meeting of the Pulaski church, Oct. 5 and 6. The meeting was well attended, and some matters over which there had been some feeling, through misunderstanding, were amicably adjusted, and our business meetings passed off harmoniously. It was unanimously voted that the Sabbath meeting should be held one-half the time at Pulaski and one-half at Pineville, in order to better accommodate the members of the church. Two were added to the church, and two delegates were chosen to our State Conference.
Pineville.—I held two meetings at this place. On Thursday the Pulaski church met at Pineville. Bro. A. H. Hall was present. Three were baptized, two united with the church, and the ordinances were celebrated. The Lord came very near to his people, and we enjoyed a precious season.
Goodenough District.—Held three meetings with the friends here. They are meeting strong opposition, and some have the tobacco habit to contend with; but all except three remain firm, and others are receiving the truth. We leave them in good spirits.
Mannsville, Oct. 14.—In company with our director and Bro. Wilcox, I attended the quarterly meeting here. Three individuals applied for membership in the church. A delegate was chosen to represent the church at the State Conference. The quarterly report of the tract society was in some respects quite encouraging. Our religious exercises were solemn, and much of God's blessing was bestowed. Held two meetings with the friends at the Haight school-house. There is a gathering influence here.

Cowanesque Valley, Pa., Oct. 14.
For nearly four weeks, I have been holding meetings two miles from Cowanesque Valley, at the Clark school-house, in the township of Brookfield. The meetings have been well attended, and the interest is rising. Six are keeping the Sabbath. We have had some strong opposition from first-day Adventists, but the truth is fast gaining ground. I must now leave for a time, but expect to return soon.
