An Advent minister from Washington
spoke i'm the Advent church on Sunday last,
in reply to the sermon of Rev. j. b. Oliver,
delivered in the M. E. church some two or
three weeks since OF the subject of which is
the Sabbath or the day to observe as day
for worship. 1t is to be hoped that people
will not become so much absorbed in the
able arguments presented OH either side of
the question that in their anxiety to observe
the right day they will forget to observe
either one. 1t is said that Rev. J. B. Oliver
will reply to the Washington man in the
near future.
