hope also that there will be promptness in paying tithes, as the Conference expenses of the past year have been unusually large, and all funds of this kind will be needed to meet them. All ministers and licentiates should have their written reports of labor and expenses prepared to pass in at the first session. Church clerks and treasurers will please bring their books to the meeting.

M. C. ISRAEL. } Cal. Conf. Committee. THE Northern Cal. camp-meeting will be held at Sacramento, commencing Oct. 13. Let all our brothers and sisters from all parts of the State make a special effort to come up to this feast of Tabernacles. We are nearing the ripening time of the harvest of the earth. We need the influence of the power and Spirit of God, that we may be able to overcome our tendencies to wrong-doing, and that the graces of the Spirit may be more fully matured, and we be in a condition to be perfected by the latter rain soon to be poured out. Come prepared to stay until the close of the meeting. Preparations will be made to supply the temporal wants of both man and beast.
