Extracts from Letters.

Bro. B. Hostler writes from Pitcher, Chen. Co., N. Y.:—"We are trying to hold on to the present truth amidst opposition. We are alone trying to hold up the standard of the cross in keeping the Commandments of God and the Faith of Jesus. Our future prospects sometimes look discouraging, but we feel to try to put our trust in God. The little church in Lincklaen continue to meet weekly on the Sabbath, and are trying to overcome. Brethren, pray for us, that we may continue to watch and patiently wait the coming of the Lord Jesus."

Bro. J. Butchart, Sen., writes from C. W., June 8th, 1856:—"As to myself I feel somewhat refreshed and strengthened in the Lord, with renewed desires to love him more, to spend and be spent in the furthering the truths of the gospel among all those whom I may have access to."
