Battle Greek in Michiganis the head
quarters Of one of the most peculiar
religious sects to be found in the coun-
try. It is called the Seventh Day
Adventists, and its members differ
from the denomination generally
known as Adventists, in looking for
the second coming Of Christ soon,
without assuming to fix on any par
ticular time for His appearance. They
constitute a large and wealthy por-
ton Of the inhabitants of Battle Greek,
where they are greatly respected for
their strict integrity, their exactitude
in their dealings, and their devout,
Conscientious adherence to the p1in-
ciples of religion and morality. They
occupy distinct quarter of the city
known as the Advent Settlement,
which is distinguished for the scrupu
lous cleanliness which prevails every
where. They are strict hygienists,
and an extensive water cure, which
attracts visitors from all parts of the
United States, forms one of their en-
terprises. They haye large pub
fishing house where denominational
books, tracts, periodicals, and the like
are printed, employing fifty hands.
The most singular thing about them,
however, ID that all of the practical,
money-getting members of this de-
| nomination in Battle Creek are under
the absolute domination of woman
named White, who processes to re-
ceive revelations, and is regarded as
the inspired medium of supernatural
communications. There is not one of
these Adventists who does not place
implicit faith in the revelations of
Mrs. White, and they unhesitatingfy
obey her directions i'll all things both
spiritual and temporal. Should she
require one or more members of the
church to remove from the city, or to
give up profitable business, the in-
junction is acted OF without q MUIR
muir. The Seventh Day Adventists
observe Saturday as their Sabbath,
which begins on Friday evening at
sunset and lasts until the same hour
on Saturday: On Sunday their work
shops and places of business are alive
with activity, and such amusements
as they indulge in are apparently ell
:joyed with unusual zest on that day.

The Master 1h0nea.
BY N. E. DODGE.
Life is picture, warm and grand,
OF human colors made;
Each touch is by the Masters hand,
And His the light and shade.
What lines are those 10 bold and strong,
And these, but half 2efned
There do the earnest Vbrkers throng,
And here the dreamy kind.
That sweep of pure, delicious light
A llostyOf souls at peace.
Yon troubled, stormy gloom of night
Mans struggle for release.
These colors, warm and fresh and bright
ALL here the foreground glows!
: Some souls are brave and glad by right,
And God, the Master, knows.
What though my earthly ways may be
Obscure and gray and drear?
His picture was in need OF me,
And He hath set me here.
Ny shadows mQy bring out, intent,
The brightness Of . soul
That must be free and prominent

Or, it may be, q sadder lot,
A colder dash Of gray,
Falls somewhere near; and mine is not
The very darkest way.
We can not change it by tint,
Nor make our lines alone;
But we may catch His subtlest hint,
And hold it as our own.
To learn the mighty Masters will, -
And rightly do our part:
To bow before Almighty skill,
And reverence His art;
To be content, one touch to be-
This is enough, o soul!
When God, for all eternity,
His picture shall d6rOll

- I 7. r II,
j. T.. lSGRAHAM,

We issue in the form of a supple
ment the speech of Gov. Washburn de-
ivered at Fond du Lac Oct. 3rd. We
ask every reader of the Repo7e, to
give this excellent review of the living
issues Of the day, a careful perusal.
1t is replete with excellent wisdom, and
all those questions, Gin the issue of
which we all are interested as citizens
of our growing commonwealth as we'll
as citizens Of the model Republic of
the world, are discussed with candor
that cannot but commend itself to all
persons, whether they be republicans,
liberals or democrats The governor,
shows himself to be blinded by no par
tizan zeal, neither actuated BY part izan
spirit, but as the earnest guardian of
the public good, he labors to advance
every interest that promises to enlarge
the welfare of the state or nation, while
he does not hesitate to discountcnance
and condemn monopolies AMI encroach-
ments Of cliques and rings in their
insiduous efforts to sap the best inter-
ests of the country under the guise Of
fealty to the public veal. The speech
is throughout bold, without defiance,
strong, with no undue Boosting, and
generous, for it harbors no animosity,
but breathes spirit of unselfish pa
triotism which will be felt not only in
our own state, but throughout the ma
tion where ever men are to be called
upon the present fall to decide by the
ballot, questions involving the good of
the state or the nation.
