Closed our meetings here on Sunday, July 30th. Gave 24 discourses in all. The Tenhassen brethren sustained us nobly in our efforts. Had good liberty, generally, in presenting the truth, and sometimes unusual freedom. But the congregations were very irregular and fluctuating. A few became deeply interested. A very intelligent gentleman and his wife, a leading man in the county, not professors of religion, were deeply moved, and promised to continue the investigation. They were obliged to leave the place before we closed. We supplied them with reading matter, and hope that the Lord may work with them, until they take their stand upon the truth. The lady told us that she should keep the Sabbath. The ministers, and most of the leading men who professed to be anxious for the tent to come there, used the “stay away” argument. Harvest coming on, and the return of the grasshoppers, rendered it necessary for us to close. We shall not resume labor until after harvest.

WESTERN KANSAS TENT.
By N. W. Vincent
Our tent still stands in Council Grove, affording a cool shade to any wishing to converse on religious topics by day, and serving as a comfortable meeting-house nights.
Bro. Lamont has delivered thirty-three discourses. The topic last night was the destiny of the wicked. The discourse was well received. The audiences average about seventy-five. Most of these are regular attendants. Their interest is good. They do not include the seven ministers of the place, whose meetings are numerous, but not well attended. A few others have recently become interested. Some already keep the Sabbath. From the numbers attending our Sabbath meetings we are hopeful of others. Brethren, we hope we have your prayers.

We closed our labors here last evening, having delivered in all fifteen discourses. We would continue our meetings longer were it not that harvesting, which has just begun, prevents the people from turning out. Our labors have been blessed at this point, and about twelve or fifteen have decided to obey God. One of us will remain here during harvest time, and hold prayer and Sabbath meetings with those who have received the truth and with other brethren in this vicinity. G. M. DIMMICK, N. BATTIN.

June 9, by request, we came to Thetford Center, where a Disciple minister was preaching against the Sabbath and law. We reviewed four of his discourses, showing the absurdities of his positions. His efforts to tear down the Sabbath of the Lord have resulted in strengthening the cause of truth here.
June 17, we commenced meetings at Otisville, with a fair attendance, which continued until the introduction of the Sabbath, when it was reduced to one-half the former number. Soon after, the schoolhouse was closed against us, and as no suitable place could be found, we were obliged to close our meetings. Opposition and prejudice were very strong, but four worthy persons have decided to obey the Lord, and quite a number acknowledge the truth who find the cross too heavy. We learn that one more has taken hold of the good work at Twin Lake since we were there. We feel that this is a solemn work, and ask to be remembered in the prayers of God's people.

MARYLAND
By W. W. Stebbins
Reports from new fields are items of interest to all the friends of truth.
Quite recently a few families of Sabbath-keepers purchased homes on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, to enjoy its fine climate and rich fruits, hoping also to “let our light so shine” that our new neighbors, who had never heard there was a “present truth” for them, might see and believe. These neighbors we have learned to love sincerely. Labor for others increases our love for them always.
Being liberal in their views, and without prejudice, they gave us work to do in their Sunday-school, and opened their school-house for our Sabbath meetings. About the 22d of June we received a visit from Bro. Canright, who remained with us over two Sabbaths, giving lectures at every reasonable opportunity. The good fruit of this labor is very apparent among the handful of believers; and many are reading their Bibles as never before, and thinking seriously, some of whom we hope will yet be confirmed in the truth. We are trying to do the friends good, and to teach them the truth in their Sunday-school and prayer-meetings, and by preaching to them twice a week. The interest is yet good.
Eld. Nicholson, Protestant Methodist, has had an appointment here every two weeks. At his suggestion the Sunday-school was organized. At his last meeting he made a very weak effort to sustain Sunday-keeping, charging us with supplanting him. He also charged upon his own people an indisposition to sustain his meetings and to erect a tent to worship in. This being the case, he said he would take up his own appointment and recommend to the Conference no future one for this place, and he would thus give the intruders the field. But still more he would do. With a great deal of dignity, he said, “I hereby disband the Sunday-school.” This hasty, spite action has gained him no friends, neither has the truth lost by it.
The following evening we replied to his arguments, holding forth the Bible Sabbath. At the same time we called for a vote of the people whether the school should be disbanded or not, when nearly every man, woman, and child voted to continue the school. Thus has he left his flock. May God help us to feed them.
Our neighbors are kind, and we are satisfied that, could a tent come here, great good might be done. We are in good spirits and drawing near the Lord. God’s truth will triumph. We petition for the prayers of God’s people, and for help as soon as, in the judgment of our leaders, it can be granted. W. W. STEBBINS.

SHORT AND OFTEN.
By Chas. L. Boyd
BRO. WHITE'S advice on short reports and often repeated meets my mind. Some dear souls are especially interested in every earnest laborer who is proclaiming the thrilling truths of the third angel's message. They pray for the blessing of God upon the laborers. They give of their substance into the treasury of the Lord for their support. They expect to hear from them. A few words will tell it, but they want to hear often.
I am, for a short time, visiting the home and friends of my youth, from whom I have been separated for nearly ten years. I expect soon to return to my field of labor, strengthened, both physically and spiritually, for the important work of carrying the glad tidings of a once crucified, but now risen and soon-coming Saviour.
Each Sabbath I meet with the church of Orleans Co. My heart is cheered by meeting with our beloved Bro. Hutchins, and others from whom I have been so long separated. CHAS. L. BOYD.

The Right Place for Gold
A Christian lady sought to excuse herself for the wearing of gold upon her person, saying, “We read that the city, New Jerusalem, is paved with gold;” when a sister promptly replied, “And that is the right place for it—under our feet.”

Vermont, Attention!
By H. Barrows; M. E. Kellogg; E. R. Bancroft
The Vermont Camp-Meeting will be held in a beautiful grove three-fourths of a mile north of Milton Station, on the Vermont Central R. R.
Mail and accommodation trains will stop at the ground. Free return tickets will be furnished on the ground to all who pay full fare one way on the Vermont Central. Expect the same on the South-Eastern R. R. It will be necessary for those bringing tents to bring tent poles, as none can be obtained on the ground.

“Les Signes Des Temps.”
By James White
WE were delighted to-day, August 3d, at the first sight of our European monthly in French, for July, with the above heading, which is the same as our Pacific weekly in English—THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES.
We now speak of the beautiful appearance of the sheet, and the fact in which every S. D. Adventist must feel a lively interest, that on the Eastern Continent such a paper is being published by our General Conference, conducted by our able and prudent missionary, Elder J. N. Andrews.
The name of the paper is well chosen, the form is good, the sheet is white and fine, the print is plain and clean, and the general arrangement does credit to the conductor. God bless LES SIGNES DES TEMPS to numerous French readers in Europe, America and wherever this bright-winged messenger of truth shall be put on its flight. Hundreds of copies of this paper should be taken in this country immediately before several copies shall accumulate.
Brethren, send the French paper to your French friends in Europe and America at once. This you can do by forwarding their names and address, and one dollar and twenty-five cents to either the REVIEW AND HERALD, Battle Creek, Michigan, or the SIGNS OF THE TIMES, Oakland, California. J. W.

By James White
We shall have a full supply of English Bibles, the New Hymn Book, Concordances, Urgos’ Thrilling Life Sketches, Sunshine Series for Children, Testimony to the church No. 26, and Dr. Kellogg’s new work on Temperance, at all the camp-meetings. JAMES WHITE.
The Centennial Exhibition

New Editions of Way of Life and Charts
Elder White is spending a couple of weeks at Philadelphia, and is improving the present opportunity to publish second editions of the engraving, entitled Way of Life, and of the Lecturers’ Charts. With efficient helpers he has greatly improved them, and will have them ready before the Michigan Camp-meeting and General Conference in September.

Ill. T. & M. Society.
By F. M. T. Simonson
Our bill from the Publishing Association is just received, to which our immediate attention is requested, there being due nearly $40.
There was a call made some time ago for persons to donate $10 each, to which many responded; but we lack just four such. Are there not four in the State to supply the demand? All members of our Society are requested to send by next mail, a donation to their directors, such donation to be from one dime upward, as they can afford. Directors are requested to forward all moneys in their possession to our treasurer, George Foreman, Somonauk, De Kalb Co., Ill., by Aug. 16, 1876.

Free Return Tickets
By A. S. Hutchins
HAVE been secured over the S. E. & Pass. R. R. for those who pass over these roads to our camp-meeting, the same as over the Vt. Central and all its branches. Those going from Eastern and Northern Vt. should take the morning train. Milton is midway between St. Albans and Essex Junction. Let all who can, be on the ground on Wednesday.
It is not the intention of the committee to run the boarding tent this year as last. Ample arrangements for provisions at the stand. It is not expected to set tables. Several brethren living in the western part of the State would do the Committee a great favor to come to the ground on Monday and remain to help.

Vermont Conference.
The Vermont State Conference of S. D. Adventists will hold its next annual session in connection with the camp-meeting to be held near Milton Station, two stations north from Essex Junction, Aug. 17–22. We hope each church will be represented by a full delegation.
Every church numbering twenty members or less, is entitled to one delegate; and to one additional delegate for each fifteen members over twenty.
All church clerks should report to the State secretary the number of members in their respective churches and their spiritual standing; also each S. D. treasurer should see that all dues of this kind are, if consistent, paid up to the middle of the present year, and duly reported in good season to the State secretary and treasurer. Bro. Stone will probably call attention to these items and send blanks for reports.

All trains are expected to stop if any on the cars notify the conductor in season. The ground is about one-half mile from Groveland Station. Have your baggage distinctly marked, Groveland Camp-ground. Come one and all. Let all take pains to arrive on the ground one or two days before the meeting, that the tents may all be pitched, and the entire camp prepared to enter upon the worship of God, at the very commencement.
