3. Wilkins. The following are among
the resolutions passed:
Resolved. That in view of the efforts
now making for the final and triumphant
success of the temperance reformation by
the American Temperance Society in ex-
GLIDING all inebriating drinks as COM
mon beverage, that we recommend to the
messengers and churches composing this
association to exclude as beverage all
intoxicating drinks. Agreed to, not only
by all the ministers, deacons, and dele
gates, but, by almost all the assembly.
Resotced, That we recommend to all
our brethren in this association to patron
ize and encourage the N. Y. Baptist Re-
gister and the Vermont Telegraph.
Resoloed, That in view of the destitute
condition of many parts Of our own State
and Pennsylvania which the convention
has undertaken to supply; and the state o.
many destitute places of the valley of the
Mississippi and all North America, spread
ing as it is with Roman Catholicism, and
all manner of errors, to which territory
the American Baptist Home mission so
, ciety is sending out missionaries by the
aid of funds raised by the convention, We
earnestly recommend to the churches 0
this association o raise at least 500 70
the convention of the state the ensuing
year.
Resolred, That we view slavery a
now existing in these United States to b
repugnant to the law of God, and the spir
it of our national charter which recogni
zes the right Of all men to life. liberty, an
e the pursuitof happiness, and the best an
: dearest interest of man; Therefore, RI
solred, That we will hold no communin
i fellowship with slave-holding churches Q
e Acknowledgment to without dissen
d ing voice by the delegates; and by reque'
s almost every person in the house man
tested their appreciation of the resolutio
by rising.

EXTRACT OF A LETTER TO
THE GENERAL AGENT.
Greenwood, Lincoln Go. Ga, }
,rs 25M Sept. 1885.


surprise, there has been recently sent to
our address, through the public mail, an
incendiary abolition paper, called "Hu-
man Rights" published in the city ofN.
York, and circulated by the American
Slavery Society of that State. -
Our feelings, dear brother, have been
greatly mortified and afflicted and we
are extremely sorry to say that our suspi-
cions have fallen upon you as the cause OF
. these papers being sent as, and we feel it
a duly we owe you, as well as ourselves,
to inquire whether you have had any
agency in causing that publication to be
sent US! Our suspicion has been excited
from the fact, thar none other than our
selves in this vicinity have received them;
and that we are the only individuals in
the neighborhood who subscribed for the
Baptist (Tract) Magazine !. and our names
not being on any other subscription list
at the north, or IN any other way known
TO the northern fanatics, who would in.
volve the south in scenes of blood and cat
mage TO CRAFTY a morbid philanthropy
which would cause the truly philanthropy:
ic soul to weep, and the patriotic mourn,
We think an explanation from you is due
not only to US, but on account Of the In.
stitution for which you are engaged; as
Il IS to be apprehended the cause NAV
suffer materially in consequence Of the
measure ofwhich we complain. -
We have felt, and still feel lively in.
terest IN the Institution for which You arr
Agent, and would be sorry that any cir
cumstance should transpire to retard II.
beneficent operations but, sir, we car
never consent 10 patrOnize any institution
whose officers will connect with Il. open
~ or covertly, measures calculating o.
tending to our country's ruin, or the mis-.
cry Of any portion of her population.
In conclusion, we ask you, dear broth
