  15. INFIDEL WRITERS.—We have had writers of that description who made some noise in their day. At present they repose in lasting oblivion. Who, born within the last forty years, has read one word of Collins, and Toland, and Chubb, and Morgan, and that whole race who called themselves Freethinkers? Who now reads Bolingbroke? Who ever read him through? Ask the booksellers of London what has become of all these lights of the world. In as few years their few successors will go to the family vault of “all the capulets.” Because half a dozen grasshoppers under a fern make the field ring with their importunate chink, while thousands of great cattle, reposing beneath the shadow of the British oak, chew the cud and are silent, pray do not imagine that those who make the noise are the only inhabitants of the field; that, of course, they are many in number; or that, after all, they are other than the little, shriveled, meager, hopping, though loud and troublesome, insects of the hour.—Edmund Burke, “Reflections on the Revolution in France.”1 paragraphs

  37. BRO. J. CARTER, writes from Vernon Co., Wis.: About fourteen years I have been trying to live up to the light of the third angel's message, by keeping the Lord's Sabbath. The Review comes to us every Thursday evening. We are glad to have it to read. The paper is much improved by the enlargement. The sermons are worth what the paper costs a year. If we could have a preacher come this way and give us a few lectures on the coming of the Saviour, there are a few who I think would keep the commandments of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ. We are trying to live out the Health-Reform. We want to stand with the remnant people when the Lord Jesus comes.Bro. J. Carter1 paragraphs
  38. SISTER MARY BEACH writes from Cayuga Co., N. Y.: I desire to write a few lines in favor of these all-important truths which we as a people believe. I am much comforted and encouraged by the excellent sermons the Review contains each week. I thank the Lord for the light of present truth. I am trying to spread the light as God gives me ability and opportunity. Two of our neighbors read my papers. They seem much interested in them. I am trying to live out the Health Reform in every sense of the word. Over a year ago last March I left off the use of swine's flesh, and now have renounced flesh-meat of every kind. Tea and coffee are useless articles, for which I have no desire. I am striving to watch and pray without ceasing, that I may be prepared for the times of refreshing, pass safely through the perils of the last days, and meet Jesus in peace.Mary Beach1 paragraphs
  39. BRO. O. DAVIS writes from Fairhaven, Mass.: The church here and in Dartmouth have of late been making an effort to come up to duty and get into a better place spiritually than they have been for some time past. Meetings are now well sustained. May the Lord help us to be where he can abundantly bless us.1 paragraphs
  40. SISTER A. R. KELSEY writes from Steel Co., Minn.: As I read from time to time the reports from the tried and tempted ones, I ask myself the question, Can I pen a word that will benefit any one? I have been thinking upon the Christian warfare, and I am led to ask,Sister A. R. Kelsey3 paragraphs
  41. SISTER B. A. SMITH writes from Newton, Wis.: As we are among the lonely ones and know not whether there are any near us of like faith, we would like to inquire through the Review if there are any in this vicinity. If so, we would be glad to form an acquaintance with them. Our P. O. address is Harrisville, Marquette Co., Wis. We live three miles north and east of Harrisville.B. A. Smith2 paragraphs
  42. SISTER J. MERRY writes from Minnesota: I am thankful for the light that shines daily on our path. It comes as it is needed. Now light on the Health Reform has come in due season and will help on the work of the Lord among his people. Step by step he leads us on, and I want to follow as he leads. May we all who love the Lord live in such a manner that others will be compelled to believe that we are walking with Jesus.Sister J. Merry1 paragraphs
  43. If none were to reprove the vicious excepting those who sincerely hate vice, there would be much less censoriousness in the world. Our Master could love the criminal while he hated the crime, but we his disciples, too often love the crime but hate the criminal. A perfect knowledge of the depravity of the human heart, with perfect pity for the infirmities of it, never co-existed but in one breast, and never will.1 paragraphs
  44. SISTER E. L. WHITE writes from Saginaw Co., Mich.: I have been reading the Review awhile, and now wish to become a subscriber. I believe that it teaches us the plain and blessed truths of the Bible. I rejoice today that God in his mercy sent his servants here to proclaim the truth to us, that we might be awakened out of our coldness and stupor, and be brought to see our condition as it was, and what it must be if we are ready when Jesus comes. Each one of us has a work to do, in order to hail the coming of our Saviour with joy, and not with grief. May the Lord help me to be one of his meek and humble followers. I want to keep all of God's commandments, and love him with my whole heart. I can say I love my Bible more and more; for it seems so plain to me now. I would that others might believe the present truth.1 paragraphs

  50. The Pope's Concordat with Austria, which became a law on the 5th of November, 1855, has been abrogated by the Austrian Diet, by a vote of 130 to 24. By the terms of the Concordat, every person, institution, and thing in Austria, were submitted to the Church, education was confided to her, worship was confined to her, every grand transaction of life—birth, marriage, burial—could be legalized only by her assent. Every hospital was surrendered to nuns, every school to the fathers, every charity to an affiliated order. All the German Representatives in the Diet voted for the abrogation except one, and this one refused to vote with the majority because the act was not radical enough. <page-break/>5 paragraphs

  54. Increase of Insanity.—The English papers are commenting earnestly on the alarming increase of insanity within a few years. The number of insane in England has increased twenty-one per cent. in five years, and in France the case is still worse, the number of the insane having increased forty per cent. in the same period, while the population only increased two per cent. The statistics show that insanity is also on the increase in the United States, and doubtless from the same cause as in the old world, the intense strain upon the mental organization required by our modern ways of doing business, and answering the demands of society. The superintendent of one of our lunatic asylums testified before the Legislature last winter, that the advance of insanity was largely due to the increasing use of intoxicating liquors. But is not the use of stimulants merely one of the preliminary steps to insanity, instead of the cause of it, which lies far back, in the constant tension on the brain of man demanded by our high-pressure civilization? If our reformers would look a little deeper, their conclusions would be more valuable, and their efforts more successful.1 paragraphs

  60. “If it [the Sabbath] yet exists, let us observe it according to law. And if it does not exist, let us abandon the mock observance of another day for it. ‘But,’ say some, ‘it was changed from the seventh to the first day.’ Where? when? and by whom? No man can tell. No, it never was changed, nor could it be, unless creation were to be gone through again: for the reason assigned must be changed before the observance, or respect to the reason, can be changed!! It is all old wives’ fables to talk of the change of the Sabbath from the seventh to the first day. If it be changed, it was that august personage changed it who changes times and laws ex officio—I think his name is DOCTOR ANTICHRIST.’”—A. Campbell.Roswell F. Cottrell4 paragraphs

  63. LIFE'S BALM.—God over all! How the tired heart falls back upon this, like a babe on its mother's breast. No rebuff there! Ah! were we not so childishly impatient, were we willing to wait His time, instead of demanding our own imperative now! Could we sleep sweetly, and trust Him for the waking. Be the sky bright or cloudy, could we only trust! Ah! many a hard lesson must we learn, many a rebellious tear choke down, many a despairing “why hast thou forsaken me?” stifled, ere we can learn that sweet, tranquil lesson, “God over all!”1 paragraphs
