Tent Meeting at Delhi, Mich.

WE have just closed our Tent-meeting in this place. Ministers present, M. E. Cornell, J. B. Frisbie, J. H. Waggoner of Wisconsin. Bro. Waggoner's coming was unexpected to us all, yet it was truly pleasing to the brethren to see this worthy servant and to hear him reason on our blessed hope.
On the Sabbath there was a good interest. The brethren here and some from other churches, listened with intense interest. The meeting closed with a social season. On First-day came together and enjoyed a delightful season of prayer and exhortation in the morning, after which Bro. Waggoner spoke two hours on the Sabbath question with great liberty. After thirty minutes' intermission, Bro. Cornell gave a lengthy discourse on the Law of God, showing the eternal perpetuity of the same, also presenting from orthodox writings evidence that the ten commandments were moral laws and binding in all their force, upon all men.
Bro. Frisbie gave the closing discourse, touching the time of trouble, the woes pronounced, the seven last plagues, &c., it was a solemn time. The weather was good, the congregation large and, very attentive; no disturbance. The brethren, with but four days' notice for this meeting, had a good preparation, and all things were done decently and in order. Upon the whole this meeting made to the interest of the truth.
Yours looking for Jesus. MANNING CURRY.
