THE REVIEW WEEKLY.

By Editor

IN the REVIEW for March 20th, we proposed a plan by which the REVIEW could be sustained weekly. This plan was submitted to the friends of the REVIEW for them to amend or adopt. It is as follows:
1. Let the terms of the REVIEW be $1 in advance for a volume of twenty-six numbers.
2. To the poor for 50 cts. a volume in advance.
3. To preachers, widows, the aged and infirm, who are the Lord's worthy poor, free; but to be paid at 50 cts. a volume by donations from the liberal.
But very few have expressed their opinion as to this plan. In consequence of the short notice, and bad traveling, but few were present at our late Conference at Mill Grove, and no decision was made in regard to the REVIEW.
No doubt we shall have a weekly paper. Our friends in Michigan or Vermont, who have means, will probably establish the press on a proper basis, and take the care and responsibility off from us, under which we have been sinking in health, (and being destitute of means,) we have been crippled. We now leave the Office to find relief from care and to mingle with friends abroad. At present we shall be deprived the privilege of public speaking, and our health will admit of but very little manual or mental labor. From present prospects our books on hand will be called for the present Summer, which will free us from debts, during which time our connection with the Office at Rochester may be necessary. Our whole interest is in the cause of present truth, and we shall be happy to serve the cause to the best of our ability, in any position Providence may place us. But we have too long tried to bear up under the cares and responsibilities of the financial and editorial interests of the Office.
The present volume will probably continue till the first of August, one year from its commencement, when arrangements will be made to issue the REVIEW weekly. Till that time we shall have to rely on those who have neglected to pay for the REVIEW, and the donations of the liberal, for its support.
