  20. AFFLICTIONS.—The thorn is one of the most cursed, and angry, and crabbed weeds that the earth yields, and yet out of it springs the rose, one of the sweetest flowers, and most delightful to the eye.

  29. When a man—no matter how slight the perception is; no matter how small the feeling is—can bring himself to say, “Lord, I do love thee, and I am determined to obey thee,” if he instantly begins to do what he promises, and goes right off into a course of Christian conduct, he has a right to say, “I have begun to be a Christian.”1 paragraphs

  37. BRO. J. F. HAMMOND writes from Providence, R. I.: Says John, “If we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.” Where is there another class of people among whom so good fellowship exists as among those who have received the first, second, and third angel’s messages, as given in Rev. xiv, and believe in keeping all the commandments of God and the testimony of Jesus, and are striving to live it out? May the light of truth illuminate the path of the faithful few till Jesus comes.1 paragraphs
  38. From Bro. Green.Calvin Green5 paragraphs
  39. SISTER L. A. WILTSIE writes from Minnesota: For the first time, I give in my testimony with the rest of the believers in present truth. I bless God that I am counted worthy to bear the name of an Adventist. I praise his name that he is leading his people in the way that he has marked out for them. When I look around and see the fields all ripe for harvest, and see so few who are willing to work in the vineyard of the Lord, I feel like praying, Lord, send laborers into the field. There is a great work for us as a people to do, and but a very short time to do it in; and it is my daily prayer that God will make us feel the responsibility that is resting upon us, that we may come out and be separate from the world, and work for our Lord and Master who has done so much for us. I want to be an overcomer. I want to have on the wedding garment, and have my lamp trimmed and burning, that when the Lord comes, I shall be able to enter in to the marriage supper of the Lamb.L. A. Wiltsie1 paragraphs
  40. SISTER N. J. LUCAS writes from Oxford Co., Maine: I have received a copy of your paper, the Advent Review, and after giving it a careful investigation, have made up my mind that it is just the paper that I want. I have been reading a book called the Sanctuary and Twenty-three hundred days of Daniel viii, 14, and was much interested in it. Have been studying my Bible considerably of late, and can find no day to be the Sabbath of the Lord except the seventh; and I feel confident that it is the one to be observed as a day of rest. But I cannot consistently believe it to be the holy Sabbath, and not keep it. Hence, by the help of the Lord, I shall try to keep it as the Lord has commanded. I have felt greatly blessed thus far in so doing. Oh! how blessed it is to have a heart willing to obey the Lord. After keeping the Sabbath I can retire with the joy and peace which springs from the assurance of having obeyed the Lord. I not only want to live out a part of God's commandments, but I want to live them all out. To me it is joy unspeakable and full of glory to believe God's word and keep his commandments. I stand alone here, there being no Sabbath-keepers very near me; and I expect much opposition, yet I can trust in that All-wise Being that said, “I will never leave nor forsake thee.” And while we are fast nearing the haven of eternal rest, let us have on the whole armor of the gospel, that we may be able to battle against the wiles of the enemy. Eph. vi, 11. Be ye also patient, establish your hearts for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh. James v, 8. Let us not be weary in well doing for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. Gal. vi, 9.N. J. Lucas1 paragraphs
  41. YE WAITING ONES, BE STRONG.M. A. Holt4 paragraphs
  42. TIME is the only gift in which God has stinted us; for he never entrusts us with a second moment till he has taken away the first, and never leaves us certain of a third.—Pawles.Pawles1 paragraphs
  43. PRESERVE self-possession, and do not be talked out of conviction.1 paragraphs
  44. SISTER L. H. EASTMAN writes from Vermont: As I read the cheering testimonies in the Review, it revives and strengthens me, and I feel encouraged to keep all the commandments of God, and to live a self-denying life. Though my heart often shrinks in view of my weakness and unfaithfulness, and though I am very sensible that I am a great sinner, yet I feel like striving more to overcome through the help of Him who is faithful and true. His word assures us that if we trust in Him we shall be strong as Mount Zion. I am one of the lonely ones, living far from the people I most love and that are most like the first disciples, believing in the power of God to heal the sick. How consoling that we have a Great Physician that can cure all diseases of body and mind, and one we can always trust. Earthly friends may fail us, but He never will. Thank His dear name.1 paragraphs
  45. Bro. E. G. Dodd writes from Tuscola Co., Mich.: Shall we, brethren and sisters, like some of the professed religionists of the day, fall from our steadfastness? Shall we like them become converted by the world so that none can distinguish between us? God forbid! While we feel sad and mourn over their fallen condition, let us take warning lest the love of the world, the deceitfulness of riches, and the pride of life draw us away from God, so that when the Lord shall be seen coming in the clouds of heaven we shall be unprepared to meet him in peace. Let us heed the last warning message to man, live up to all the light of present truth, overcome the sin which doth so easily beset us, run with patience the race set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith, that we may with him have a place at the right hand of the throne of God.E. G. Dodd1 paragraphs
  46. BRO. H. C. JEWELL writes from Fowler's Mills, Ohio: I wish to speak of God's great goodness to me. Although I am afflicted, I trust that my afflictions are sent for my good. I am deprived of the use of my limbs, and confined to my room; but in my confinement, I can hold sweet intercourse with my Heavenly Father. Blessed be his holy name for opening my eyes to the light of present truth. I feel very thankful for the weekly visits of the Review. I am trying to live in accordance with the Health Reform. If any of the brethren should come this way I should be pleased to have them call and see me; for I am one of the lonely ones.H. C. Jewell1 paragraphs

  49. THE SEVENTH AND FIRST DAY.—The Journal and Messenger presents an original view of the reason of the change from the seventh to the first day of the week as the Sabbath. It is certainly novel, if not convincing. As nothing is said about a patent-right or copy-right of this theory, we print it.—Sabbath Recorder.3 paragraphs

  60. —There are some doings around Washington just now which remind us of years that are gone. In all the surrounding counties of Maryland the organization and drilling of military companies is going on rapidly. Within a short time the formation of cavalry companies has begun north of Baltimore, on the lines of travel. This, we suppose, is the Jerry Black Horse Cavalry.1 paragraphs

  65. On the 7th of September a friend put a pamphlet into my hands to convince me, as I understood it, that the Lord would come this year. Before reading it half through, I found the following statement:R. F. C.3 paragraphs
  66. In No. 12, third column, first paragraph, read, There is an end of faith, if the word of God is thus vulnerable to the enemy, &c. In the same paper, p. 185, first paragraph, second column, read, In Tuscarora, (near S. Addison, Steuben Co.) &c. R. F. C.R. F. C.1 paragraphs

  72. The census of Mississippi was taken last year, and a comparison of the population with that of 1860 exhibits the desolation caused by the war in a very striking manner. In 1860 the total population was 801,308—whites 353,899, blacks 447,404. In 1866 the whole population was 724,718—whites 343,460, blacks 381,258. The absolute decrease in six years was 76,585, the whites losing 10,437, the blacks 66,143. But at the rates of increase before the war the population should have been 854,000 in 1866, and the real loss by the war was 230,000, of which the whites lost 52,000, the blacks 78,000. The excessive loss of the negroes is accounted for by the fact that they fled from the interior to the river towns during the war, where they herded together and rotted of disease by the thousand. This was the case elsewhere in the South, but nowhere else to so shocking an extent as in Mississippi.1 paragraphs
