ENCOURAGEMENT FOR ILLINOIS.

By G. W. Colcord

At nearly every point where I have labored since camp-meeting, a “door of utterance” has been opened; but oh how we lack public speakers! Had we one hundred and two preachers—one only for each county—they would find enough to do were they ministers of Jesus Christ. However, the encouraging thought is: Every one of us may now find a promising, yea, fruitful, field, if we will only be devoted.

We are receiving favors which will be of value to us in the prosecution of our work. We may have the same grounds that we had last year for our camp-meeting, and on the same favorable terms. The chief policeman said to me the other day: “Come back to Bloomington, and we will give you a larger crowd than last year.” The railroad companies are favoring us. The Illinois Central company are very kind; they promise to give good rates in chartering cars. Two other lines are each anxious for us to hold our annual meeting at some point on their road.

It has been rather a hard lesson for us to learn how to meet the “mind of the Spirit” in point of order as well as of sacrifice; and while the trials mentioned in Dan. 12:10 have stumbled some, others are learning and growing thereby. As a Conference, we are not yet doing our full duty; but, thank the Lord, there are some toilers for the Master here in Illinois. God bless them. In the day of re-union, when Illinois shall “fill her quota,” will you, my co-laboring brethren and sisters, be there among the gladsome throng? Shall I be saved? Then let us not apostatize. No; let us—

Raise the cry of “Courage!” higher; Warmed, our souls, with heavenly fire, Let us raise one rousing cheer, Shout aloud, “The end is near!”

G. W. COLCORD.

CALIFORNIA

Napa.—Eld. Waggoner attended the quarterly meeting of this church. It was an excellent season. The word took effect as spoken. Bro. M. G. Kellogg remained to fill an appointment for Sunday evening. The church was very much encouraged.

Oakland.—A good quarterly meeting is reported in this church. Five united with the church. On Sabbath afternoon Eld. Israel came over from San Francisco and baptized three. The church is united on the tithing system.

TO THE BRETHREN IN DAKOTA.

By S. B. Whitney

According to the recommendation of the General Conference, I am here in Dakota to labor in the cause of present truth, and it is but natural that I should feel a great interest in the prosperity of the work. Therefore I earnestly desire the co-operation of all the brethren, especially those who have moved into the Territory, who have had experience in the work in other States. To such I would say that we have a T. and M. society fully organized, and all are requested to unite themselves with it at the nearest point, at their earliest convenience.

We have also appointed a general S. B. treasurer for Dakota, and I hope all who have not already done so will at once adopt the tithing system, and forward their S. B. regularly every quarter. The address of the general treasurer is Peter Nelson, Swan Lake, Turner county, Dakota. Marcus Stryman is also appointed to act as secretary of the S. B. fund, to whom all sums sent to the treasurer should be reported. His post-office is the same as the treasurer’s. The addresses of the officers of the T. and M. society are given in the report accompanying this.

I shall be glad to correspond with the scattered brethren everywhere, relative to their desires as to labor, etc., in their several localities.

S. B. WHITNEY.

MEETINGS IN MISSOURI.

By George I. Butler

Having been detained in Iowa much longer than I expected, I shall not be able to hold as many meetings in Missouri this winter as I desired. I shall not be able to hold meetings in all the churches of the State this winter. Some of these churches are very small, and more good could be done by lecturing in new places. I hope, therefore, that the meetings we do hold will be well attended.

In this week's REVIEW will be seen the appointments for Rockville, Bates county, and Nevada City, Vernon county. These are central points for other churches and for scattered Sabbath-keepers; and we greatly desire to see many of the members of the Union Point, Dry Wood, and Clintonville churches, as well as the scattered Sabbath-keepers near by, at one or the other of these meetings.

We shall come among you, brethren and sisters, to work with all our might to instruct you, and to stir you up to work in the good cause. I shall not have the privilege of seeing those who live away from the places of meeting this winter, unless they attend the meetings appointed. Come, all who can.

GEO. I. BUTLER.

TO THE BRETHREN IN KENTUCKY AND TENNESSEE.

By C. Owen

We as churches now have a rare opportunity to procure the valuable volumes of the Testimonies and the Spirit of Prophecy, by Sister White. There is no church in our Conference which cannot easily raise $4.00 for these volumes, which are worth $8.00. Then the brethren and sisters who are not able to purchase them individually, can have them to read. This offer, I understand, is good only for the present winter. I therefore recommend that all our churches send an order for these books, accompanied with the cash, to the T. and M. secretary, Miss Bettie Coombs, Nolin, Ky., by the 16th of February, 1879.

C. Owen, Pres.

THE VALLEY OF SILENCE.

But far on the deep there are billows That never shall break on the beach; And I have heard songs in the silence That never shall float into speech; And I have had dreams in the valley Too lofty for language to reach.

And I have seen thoughts in the valley— Ah, me! how my spirit was stirred!— They wear holy veils on their faces, Their footsteps can scarcely be heard; They pass down the valley like virgins Too pure for the touch of a word.

Do you ask me the place of this valley, To hearts that are harrowed with care? It lieth afar between mountains, And God and his angels are there; And one is the dark mount of sorrow, And one the bright mountain of prayer.

Obituary Notices.

“Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord, from henceforth.” Rev. 14:13.

DIED of dropsy, in Mt. Morris, Genesee county, Mich., Jan. 2, 1879, Bro. James Lacy, aged 86 years and some months. The place of his nativity was Peekskill, N. Y. He had been married three times, and his last wife, Sister Ann Lacy, survives him. Eight children, twenty-five grandchildren, twenty-five great-grandchildren, and two great-great-grandchildren, also survive. He served his country in the war of 1812, and in the last war he served three years as drum major in the 10th and 23d regiments of Michigan volunteer infantry. At the time of his death he was an acceptable member of the Mt. Morris church. The last day of his long life was devoted to pleasant converse with his friends and singing some of our beautiful hymns, such as “Calvary,” “I am so glad that Jesus loves me,” etc. Discourse by the writer to a very large and attentive audience from 1 Thess. 4:13, 14.

A. N. Fisher.

FELL asleep in Jesus, in the town of Thetford, Genesee county, Mich., Jan. 5, 1879, Henry, L. Sweet, aged 6 years, 4 months, and 8 days; also seven hours later, Clarence Sweet, aged 2 years, 5 months, and 10 days. Two beautiful boys, only children of Bro. Alva and Sister Mary Sweet. They died of diphtheria.

“When we see the precious blossoms That we've tended with such care Rudely taken from our bosom, How our aching hearts despair. Round their little graves we linger Till the setting sun is low, Feeling all our hopes have perished With the flowers we cherished so.”

Words of consolation and instruction from John 11, last clause of the 28th verse.

A. N. Fisher.

DIED from a fall, at Ellivon, Kan., Jan. 4, 1879, David Keedy, son of Aaron and Sarah Keedy, aged 1 year and 25 days.

“Thus saith the Lord, Refrain thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears; for thy work shall be rewarded, saith the Lord.” Jer. 31:16.

Discourse by the writer before a large and sympathizing congregation.

D. T. Bourdeau.

DIED, in Irasburgh, Vt., Jan. 6, 1879, Susan R. Barrows, wife of Bro. H. W. Barrows, aged 41 years. Declining health the past year had greatly reduced the vital energies of Sr. B. till the lungs became involved, from which point she sank rapidly. From the age of some 14 years Sr. Susan had observed the Sabbath of the Bible, having embraced it with her parents, Bro. and Sr. E. Churchill, in the year 1852. Possessing a mild, even temperament and amiable disposition, she won many friends. She sleeps in hope, while her companion and three children, deeply bereft, remain to mourn her loss. By death's power our family circle is broken again, and we weep with those who weep.

GOOD EXAMPLES.

The Chicago and Northwestern and the Southern Minnesota railroads are entitled not only to a vote of thanks, but also the liberal patronage of all temperance-loving people, for the noble action recorded below. The Chicago and Northwestern road, which embraces under one management 2,158 miles of road, forming eight distinct trunk lines, has adopted a rule requiring a written pledge of every employe to abstain from using intoxicating drink or even ale, beer, and wine, and to keep out of all places where such drinks are sold, and also to refrain from profane and abusive language. And one of the rules on the Southern Minnesota railroad, according to their new time card, we are informed, is as follows:—

“No person will be employed in any department who uses intoxicating liquor. A known violation of this rule will be followed by immediate and final dismissal.”

NAMES OF THE DAYS OF THE WEEK.

By S. J. Hersum

The following extract from William Francis Collier’s “History of the British Empire,” p. 45, shows the origin of the names of the days of the week:—

“When the Anglo-Saxons settled in Britain, they were the slaves of a gross and absurd idolatry, which prevailed among all the Northern tribes of Europe. They dedicated each day of the week to a particular deity; and we still name the days after their fashion. Sun dæg (Sunday) and Moon dæg (Monday) were set apart for the worship of the great lights of heaven; Tuiscaes dæg (Tuesday), Wodenes dæg (Wednesday), Thores dæg (Thursday), and Freyaes dæg (Friday), were sacred to Tuisca, Woden, Thor, and Freya; while Saturnes dæg (Saturday) was devoted to the service of Saturn, a god borrowed from the Roman mythology.”

S. J. HERSUM.

Linneus, Maine.

NOTE.—We think it hardly correct to say that the names of the days of the week originated with the Anglo-Saxons. The foregoing extract shows how the names have received their present forms in our language. The Anglo-Saxons were simply carrying out in their own tongue what the old Chaldeans had done twenty-two hundred years before Christ, namely, dedicating the seven days of the week to the seven principal heathen deities. See Philip Smith’s History of the World, vol. i. pp. 205, 211.—Ed.

SUNDAY IN MASSACHUSETTS.

At the regular quarterly meeting of the Evangelical Ministers' Association, held in Boston, Jan. 13, 1879, a committee of twelve was appointed to consider the subject of holding conventions on the Sabbath [Sunday] question. Alexander McKenzie made an address on the question, according to previous appointment. He thinks the great financial panic of the past few years, and the present great business depression, is the judgment of God upon the business world, because they have suffered their secular affairs to encroach upon the sanctity of the Sunday, really making it a secular day.

TRACTS IN OTHER LANGUAGES.

By Editor

We have before us as we write, three volumes, the presence of which is a great gratification. They are a volume of tracts in French consisting of 552 pages, a volume of German tracts, 248 pages, and a volume of Italian tracts, 112 pages, all printed at the office of the SIGNS in Bâle, Suisse, for the European field. They are translations of our leading English tracts, and earnest workers are finding readers for them in the different countries of the Eastern hemisphere.

TRUTH BY SEA.

By the zeal and efforts of those who are most interested in the missionary work, something has already been done in the way of putting our publications on board vessels bound to the different quarters of the globe, and thus scattering the truth in distant lands. Read the following, and let it stimulate us to still greater zeal:—

“In the great work of the world’s evangelization, Bible and tract distribution hold a prominent place, and the sailor is one of the most efficient colporteurs. They move on all the commercial currents of oceans, seas, lakes, and rivers; they are in all the harbors of the globe, and touch at a thousand marts of trade where landsmen would never go. It was natural that the American Bible and Tract Societies should avail themselves of such an agency for the distribution of their publications. They have done so for several years with increasing success, and during the year ending September, 1877, the distribution by seamen amounted to 10,989 copies of the Scriptures, mainly Testaments, and 2,200,000 pages of tracts sent forth upon 1,327 vessels. One of these vessels touched at fifty different ports in a single month, and in each one left more or less of gospel messengers. This kind of ocean colportage is distinctly American, and so well known is this that on nearly all distant shores the American flag is associated with the Bible and the tract. The Sailors’ Magazine, to which we are indebted for most of our statements, quotes from the letter of a naval officer who has been long at sea, saying: ‘I know by experience that American ships generally have Bibles and tracts. By means of your ships the word of God has been distributed all over the globe. Walking one day along the quay of Rotterdam, I invited a Christian friend to step at once on board the first vessel we should see with the stars and stripes. He would not believe me, when lo, on the very first one we were asked what we wanted, Bibles or tracts.’ Let our sailor missionaries be held in the esteem they deserve, and remembered in the sympathies and prayers of the churches.”

NOTE FROM BRO ANDREWS.

By John Nevins Andrews

SINCE the death of my daughter, I have been in feeble health and have been obliged to omit nearly all mental labor. I hoped to regain my strength before setting out for Europe, but cannot wait longer for this. I intend to leave Battle Creek next week, if nothing unforeseen occurs to hinder. I should make a series of appointments, but do not think it prudent to do this. I believe that I shall find strength for the work in Europe, and am very desirous to return without further delay. Jan. 19. J. N. Andrews.

Editors Recommend Canright's Articles in This Review

We call the attention of our readers to the excellent articles by Eld. Canright in this number of the Review. They will find in them matter for thought and action.

David's Sin: A Clear Discussion by Littlejohn

The article by Eld. W. H. Littlejohn, on David’s Sin, which we copy from the Allegan County Democrat, is a clear and logical discussion of the subject. Our readers will find it to their advantage, being liable to come in contact with skeptics on every hand, to read this article carefully.

Bro. Loughborough Transferred to the Nevada

From Bro. Loughborough's report in another column, it will be seen that he was at first transferred to the ship Homer, but the captain finally refused to take him, and transferred him to the Nevada of New York. That ship Homer, at last accounts, though long over due, had not been heard from. It has probably been lost.

The Irish World's Radical Special Edition

The Irish World, of New York, printed last week a special edition of one million three hundred thousand copies, for circulation everywhere. Its theories are those of the ultra-communist, and it indulges in appeals which are calculated to excite the needy and thriftless to the most reckless violence.

Boston's Sunday Amusements Mocked as 'Sacred'

The Boston Herald of Jan. 13, says: “It was a pretty sacred kind of a Sunday in Boston yesterday. Sacred lottery and sacred performance of scenes from the ‘Lady of Lyons,’ at the Jewish fair; sacred Strauss waltzes and sacred Siege of Paris near by; sacred Morgan lecture at Music Hall, and so on. Sacred! Sacré! If we may be allowed the expression.”

Chicago Ministers Defend Cards, Theaters, and Dancing

The Congregational ministers of Chicago, it seems, think cards, billiards, theaters, dancing, &c., can be baptized, and thus be made good Christian practices. Their reasoning seems to be: We are Christians; therefore if we play cards, dance, go to theaters, &c., that makes those acts Christian; and this is the way to make these things good, by having the church enter into them unrestrained. See item in our News column. Where is Mr. Moody?

Spread of Protestantism in France

By Editor

We give in our News column quite a lengthy extract relative to the spread of Protestantism in France. Our sympathies with Protestantism as opposed to Catholicism would naturally excite in our minds an interest in this movement. But may it not be that the Lord by this reformation, in breaking up old relations and dispelling superstitions, is preparing some minds there for the reception of the whole truth. At any rate, with this thought we read the item with greater interest.

BLANK BOOKS.

LIBRARIAN'S SET D. A set of Librarian's blank books especially prepared for very small churches or companies. It comprises a one and one-half quire Journal, a quire Record, and a three-fourths quire Periodical Book. The Record and Periodical Books are bound in bonnet board to save expense.
