Lovington, Illinois.

[The following report of the meeting in Lovington, Ill., also the report of the Iowa Camp-meeting, though written in time, were miscarried, and reached us one day too late for last week's paper.]

This meeting was held at Lovington, Moultrie Co., Ill., June 1 and 2. The brethren have a commodious house of worship at this point, which was well filled at half past ten the first day. We arrived at the depot near eleven, and went directly to the house of worship, where the people were waiting. Mrs. W. in a few minutes was addressing the people. We spoke in the afternoon, and Mrs. W. addressed a house litterally packed, while many stood outside and in the doorways.

The meetings of the second day were larger and the interest deeper. We were very happy to meet Elders Colcord and Bliss at this meeting, and to enjoy its several exercises with the brethren and sisters the successful fruits of their untiring labors. Thursday morning we left for the Iowa Camp-meeting. J. W.
