COMMUNICATIONS.

By Eber M. L. Cory

From Bro. Cory.

BRO. SMITH:—I am much pleased with the Review as it has heretofore come richly laden with intelligence highly important to the christian traveler on his pilgrimage journey through this troublesome world. I like the spirit of its contents better than I do the "Messenger," three Nos. of which have been sent to me unbidden, I suppose from seeing my name in the Review. If you have seen said "Messenger" lately you are aware of the contrast between the spirit it breathes and that of the Review, (I do not wish to flatter) which is great in favor of the latter, in my humble judgment.

There is but a small band of Sabbath-keepers in this place who meet from Sabbath to Sabbath, sometimes two or three, and sometimes five or six, for prayer and social worship; seldom hearing the word of life proclaimed by any of the Third Angel messengers; but notwithstanding this privation, we mean to persevere in ways of holy living, God being our helper, and set such examples as shall be worthy of imitation, and so live that, should Christ make his second advent into the world in our day, it would be so far from terrifying us, that we could hail him with transports of joy.

Yours in hope of life eternal.

EBER M. L. CORY.
