Affairs in Europe

By Editor

The papers are just now teeming with warlike news from Europe. The whole continent is likened to a powder magazine, to any part of which if the torch is applied, the flames will communicate to the whole. “Distress of nations with perplexity,” “wars and rumors of wars,” and the manifold manifestations of the “anger of the nations,” are now the order of the day. Very soon it can be said, “Thy wrath is come.” Rev. xi, 18. The seven last plagues in which “is filled up the wrath of God,” are to follow this state of things. Some items on the state of Europe we give in this number, but would be glad to give more had we space. A condensed article on “Affairs in Europe,” from a Chicago paper, is for this reason laid over till next week.

To Correspondents.

ISAAC SANBORN: We sent for a copy of the tract you mention, and agree with you that it must shame the father of all lies and misrepresentations.

QUESTION. Soon after I embraced present truth, I found in a former Vol. of the Review a “Synopsis of Present Truth.” I became deeply interested in it, when, to my disappointment, I found only a part had been preserved. Has it never been printed in pamphlet form? P. L. CORNELL

ANSWER. The above work has never been published in pamphlet form. It can be found entire with the exception of a few numbers in Vol. xi of Review.

H. C. DOCKHAM. The poem, “Father, take my hand,” was published in Review, Vol. xxii, No. 20.

A CORRESPONDENT calls our attention to the fact that the poetry entitled, “The Path that Leads to Heaven,” and published as original in Review, No. 11, present volume, is found word for word in Review, Vol. xxv, No. 2, signed M. A. W. C., and copied from the American Messenger. We thank our correspondent for the correction. We attribute no intentional wrong to the person who last sent it in; but plagiarism, we cannot knowingly countenance.

A CORRESPONDENT inquires: Please inform me how I can keep the Sabbath according to the commandment when my husband does not keep it, and wants his three meals a day, and coffee or tea every meal. My mother who lives with me wants the same. Also, how am I to bring up my family according to the Health Reform when they see meat, coffee, and tea, daily set on the table before them? Last night my husband came home with a large ham, his favorite dish. For my self I have given up meat, tea and coffee; it is for my family that I fear in that respect.

ANSWER. 1. Provide cheerfully all that your husband requires, refraining, of course, from all avoidable labor on the Sabbath. 2. Firmly adhere yourself to a correct mode of living. 3. Gently and steadily labor to instill right principles into the minds of your children. 4. Trust in God.
