The Review and Herald.

By Editor

For want of room it has been necessary to move our Office from one of the rooms of our "own hired house," to South St. Paul Street, Stone's Block, No. 21, third floor.
It is now evident that God has been well pleased with the effort of his children to obtain an Office to be conducted in strict obedience to the fourth commandment. We are incapable of expressing our feelings of gratitude to God, whose wise providence has ordered this thing, and to the dear brethren who have so promptly acted their part.
This has taken a great burden from us. The Lord has also given us our Foreman to be with us in the faith and hope of the gospel. We now expect to be released from the Office much of the time, so as to labor in different portions of the field, which is necessary for our health.
The amount received to pay for the Office is $655, 84. The cost, including $20 worth of type recently purchased, is $652, 93. The balance will help purchase a stove for the Office.
We stated in No. 8, that each number of 2000 copies, including all our expenses, cost $58. This amount was received up to No. 7, published Aug. 5th. Since that time, the receipts have fallen off $129.
The Office is not in debt, however, for this reason, that Brn. Belden and Stowell, who have worked in the Office the past six months, have received but a trifle more than their board. Others, engaged in the same work, have received no more than they have. It will certainly be a pleasure for all the friends of the present truth to help make up the deficiency in the receipts, that those who have labored hard, especially in our absence, in the midst of sickness, in publishing the REVIEW AND HERALD, may have a comfortable support.
Will the Lord's stewards notice our receipts, and not only see that the deficiency is made up, but also that they do not fall off. This will save us from referring to them again.
☞ THE extract of a discourse by John Wesley in this No. is from a book of 262 pages, called Wesley's Sermons, Published 42 years since, for the "Methodist Connection in the United States." The manner in which this holy man treated the law of God, will not fail to interest our readers.
☞ THE article published in this, and the two previous Nos. upon the Priesthood of Christ, was written by O. R. L. Crozier in 1846. Our readers will be well paid in giving it a thorough examination. We expect to publish something on the subject of the Sanctuary, soon.
☞ THE YOUTH'S INSTRUCTOR, No. 2, will probably be out next week. Will not all the friends of the Sabbath, who have children, encourage us in this work by sending for this little sheet?
☞ MANY letters, a large portion of them relating to business matters, were received in our absence. If there has been any thing overlooked, the friends will please write again.
☞ WE have a quantity of the beautiful Chart published by Bro. Nichols in 1850. Price $2. Those owing for this Chart, will please forward the pay to us as soon as convenient.
