CHRISTIANA, NORWAY.

By John G. Matteson

The meetings in this place have been well attended during the past week. Last night we had about two hundred and fifty attentive hearers. We had a prayer-meeting one evening, and several took part. There is much prejudice to overcome, but we trust the Lord will prepare some hearts to receive the truth even in this city. I have obtained three subscribers for our paper and sold books for Kr. 12.00 ($3.20). If we could find a faithful person to do missionary work, it would help greatly. I have so much writing, that necessarily must be attended to, that I cannot see one-tenth of the people that ought to be visited.
The work in Denmark is progressing. Bro. A. Brorsen has visited many persons and held several meetings on Sjælland. He held five meetings in Næsby, which were well attended. Two persons commenced to keep the Sabbath. He has sold some books and obtained three subscribers for the TIDENDE.
Bro. K. Brorsen is also active in the northern part of Jylland. He has visited and held meetings in Hellum, Jerslev, Hjallerup, Orsö, Hellevad, Tylstrup, and other places. In the last-named place the brethren are growing in grace. Tracts and papers have been read by many people in these places, and quite a number are more or less interested in the truth.
