Supplementary: About Elder Joseph Thomas.

We have enjoyed the unspeakable pleasure of spending a week in the company of this distinguished and devoted servant of the most high God. He has a strong constitution and is capable of enduring more fatigue, and preaching more sermons than common men. His mind is also strong, clear and energetic, and his manners purely southern and agreeable. In all the congregations he has visited in this State, he has been received with that friendship and kindness which has ever characterized the churches in this State.

He designs to be at Freehold, Green co., next Sabbath, and will pass on through Dutchess, Putnam, and Westchester counties to New York city. After visiting the New Jersey Conference, we hope he will conclude to extend his mission to all the Conferences in New England. We are confident his visit would be a blessing, and we think he is desirous to accomplish it, if the churches feel disposed to sustain him in his arduous labors. Let all the congregations who may be favored with his visits, show how much they love the truth he brings.

We are authorized to give appointments for him as follows: With Elder Hathaway’s congregation in Milton, this evening (the 16th). At the Christian chapel in Ballston, 17th evening. At the Christian chapel in Berne, 18th. With Elder Teats, 19th. With Elder Spore, 20th, 21st, and 22d. With Elder Winans, 23d. With Elder Marsh, at Milan, 24th and 25th. At Sanfordville, 26th and 27th. At Israel Fowlers’s 28th. With Elder Roberts, at Clove, March 1st. The second Sabbath in March, he will be in New York with Elder Walter.
