The Power Press by Steam

As the brethren abroad will be interested to learn the success of the enterprise of running the Power Press by steam, we would say that the Engine is received and is now in successful operation. It is one of three horse-power from the manufactory of Hoard and Sons, Watertown, N. Y. Its first labor was the printing of last week's REVIEW. It works admirably; and our press-work, no accident preventing, will henceforth be accomplished by steam which never tires. The Lord's blessing has thus far seemed greatly to attend the enterprise. The brethren are requested still to remember in their prayers the prosperity of the cause both at the Office and abroad, and especially that the fact may never be lost sight of, that the grand motive power must after all be the Spirit of God. "Not by might nor by power but by my Spirit, saith the Lord of hosts." Zech. iv, 6. May every stroke of the Engine and every revolution of the Press, be instrumental in sending forth that, and that only, which shall be light and food to benighted and perishing souls.
