S. DAVISON:—The ADVENT REVIEW is but one dollar a year. How shall we apply the other dollar?
C. W. SPERRY. Canada subscribers should send us $1,26 We receipt $1 only, the 26 cts being to pay the postage.
LEWIS CHASE. Sickness in our family will prevent us from visiting you at present. Bro. J. N. Loughborough designs visiting your part of the State.
BRO. J. H. WAGGONER. We have sent you a few copies of your work by Mail twice. Have you received them? We will send you a box of Books at any time.
D. P. HALL. We are receiving orders for your work almost daily.
M E CORNELL The article from E. Clark we took from the Post Office on our way to the cars to go on our Eastern Tour, some more than a year since. We handed it to Bro. J. N. Andrews, without reading it, for him to reply to. We have not seen the article since. Bro A's health failing, he was unable to notice it, till our note in the REVIEW caused him to return the article unanswered. We might expect that those persons would receive such a message. But if they do, and place the 'Two-horned Beast' 200 years in the past, the Third Message in the future, and take the ground that this is the time for the Second Message, it will be clearly seen that they reject the present truth. The spirit they now possess will lead them anywhere, but in the path of truth, holiness, and to the kingdom
In regard to the articles from R. Hicks, we declined publishing them because it did not seem proper to us to occupy so much space with an experience, &c., which, in our opinion would not benefit any one. Finally, we stated in a note in No. 3 as follows:—
"Bro. Hicks. We refer the matter to the Publishing Committee, and abide by their decision."
We soon received a note from R. Hicks, from which we take the following:—
"I would simply say that I do not wish to be the means of troubling the Publishing Committee with business that belongs to the Editorial department. I therefore now recall my three communications that are in your possession."
Now compare with this his recent statement and you will get some idea of the unpleasant and unreasonable things we often meet:—
"I believe it is a fearful thing for a single individual to be an Editor of a religious paper."
