NOT WEARY.

By Editor

We may make an application to ourselves of the anecdote related of father Scott of Kentucky, when some one asked him why he continued to preach when he had converted but one soul in twenty years. "Have I converted one?" said he. "Yes," replied the other. "Then," said the good man, "here's for twenty years more; I may convert two."

We have abundant evidence that the REVIEW during the past six months has been a messenger of light and truth to many minds; that its messages of comfort have cheered the desponding; and that its testimonies and exhortations have not been without their effect upon those who have read. Then, brethren, here's for another volume; here's for six months more. The REVIEW may be yet a greater blessing to its scattered friends than it has heretofore been. It may still bear light to the blind, hope to the desponding, strength to the weak, and courage to the weary. How many are ready to join heart and hand for such a result? How many are ready to make a cheerful offering of themselves, their substance, and their talents in so good a work? We hear in imagination a prompt response from all over the land. So far, then, good. Let your actions speak accordingly and we ask no more.
