BRO. CHURCH writes from St. Helena, Nov. 29th. "Dear Bro. Loughborough : Perhaps a few lines from here might be of interest to you. We are getting along very well. We have had splendid meetings since the camp meeting. All seem to take new courage in the Lord, and in the absence of help, all seem to want to be helpers. We have had a visitor from Oregon with us three or four Sabbaths. She is a sister of Mr. S—. She has attended our meetings and become very much interested. To-day she kept her first Sabbath. She says she never will forsake it. She was a Baptist, and appears to be a very candid and good woman. May the Lord help her to 'prove all things and hold fast that which is good.' "We intend to try and hold our next Sabbath meeting in our new church, we feel to thank the Lord that we are able to build as good a one as it is. "I just received a letter from my niece in Fresno Co. She said they rejoiced in the truth very much. She said she had not used any tea, coffee, nor pork since camp meeting.

We are glad to hear that the interest is good in San Francisco. May many souls take their stand for the present truth there. I wish you could be with us next Sabbath as we intend to meet in our new meeting house. I forgot to say that Bro. A. H.—has come out strong on the truth here since camp meeting."

"We expect that the True Missionary will merge into the Review, as a new paper will be issued east of the Plains to fill the same place as the Signs on the Pacific coast." S. N. HASKELL.
