THE TELEGRAPH.
BRANDON, WEDNESDAY, JAN. IL

JUSTICE requires US to say that we
have received letter from III. D. Havs"
postage charged to us-in which he
says that he has paid one Of our agents
for volume VIII. Ifpayment was made
to the agent in season, he has been neg
ligent, and brother Hays must fault him,
and not US, for the late public exposure.
But be must fault himself, principally,
for continuing to receive nearly quarter
OF the present volume when he did not de-
sign to pay for it. This was not right.
He should have returned the first number
that he did not want, and did not design
TO pay for-not have received ten, and
then return them. What if all our suh-
scrIbers should take each ten numbers,
then return them without pay, and stop
What could be more unjust and wrong
A newspaper is not like many articles OF
trade that can be carried to market, ex-
posed a while for sale, and, if not called
for, returned unimpaired. Out of date,
they are dead. Besides, in the case now
in hand, the article seems to have been
taken, worn out, and then returned. In
this we may be mistaken; but in our for
mer remarks it was intimatcd that such
treatment was manifest on the face of the
papers returned, and in the letter received
1t has not been denied.
Had this case been the only one of the
kind, it would have been allowed TO pass
unnoticed. But there has been, in all, quite
a number of such instances since the
Telegraph came into our hands, and we
know of no better way to prevent their
recurrence, than to make a public expos
ure ofnames.

ANTI-SLAVERY.
From the PhiIanthropist.
On nbstinnnce from the products OF Slave
Labor,

Labor.
How far we are thus to abstain, is an
inquiry that commends itself to the consid-
Grafton of every aboltionist. We pro-
fess to believe and can demonstrate, that
slavery is iniquitous-that it is a system
of oppression therefore its products must
be those Of injustice and cruelty. How,
then, can we, as conscientious and consis-
tent men, traffic in or consume its pro-
ducts, without mourning the charge of be-
ing partlclpators in the crime we so stren-
uously condemn-as being hypocritical
rebukers of sin that we, by our practice,
are daily aiding and abetting. The argu-
ment that we do not use the products of
slave labor with the design of en:ourag-
ing the system-or, that the sum total we
consume will neither retard the cause of
emanci patton nor promote that of slavery,
is of no validity. This is not the cues
ton at issue, it is one under the cogni
zance of our conscience alone. To her
judicial scrutiny we must submit the case
and when verdict is pronounced, it must
be to US as pnalterable as the law of grav-
ity. Who. then, can question the charac-
ter of her decision2 1t would be, that the
u0tlling partaker in the fruits of crime is
involved in the guilt of the perpetrator.
do not wish to promote state of feel
ing that may be deemed fanatical but do
desire to See right principle prevail in
this mater.
We live n an age in which the condi.
ton ofthings around US is such, as COM
pels us to use commodities that we know
are the product of slave labor; but neces-
sity and not choice should be our reason
for doing So Our condition may be illus
trated by that of man who was SO .un-
fortunate as to be captured upon the ocean
by band of pirates, and who witnessed
the manning. the drowning, and the cruel
numbering Of his fellow passengers, but
from some cause his life was spared, and
he was treated with more than ordinary
kindness. and finally was conveyed in safe
~ and placed upon the shore. At the

rays that emanated from it were melting
the links of chain: on the other side was
inscribed the motto, God loveth cheer
full giver.' The cand y and various other
articles Of confectionery for children,
were wrapped in paper, on which were
printed the following verses:
Come, little ones for the sweets ye see,
Were made by the labor of the FREE;
And freely to-day We may partake,
Even for the toil-worn bondman's sake:
For the price you pay perchance may save
From the cruel scourge some tortur'd slave:
Your friends will explain how single cent
May cause the steeled heart to relent.
And year after year, as Christmas comes,
With its papers Of pleasant sugar-plums,
Ever be careful to enquire
Respecting the fact Of the laborer's hire.
The ladies wish to return their warm
acknowled gments 10 friends in neighbor-
ing towns, and to several gentlemen for
their kind donations and active assistance.

principles and an unseared conscience q
He would fearlessly resolve to receive no

apology for consuming the products of
slave labor: then how salutary would be
the efect-how harmonizing to the con-
science-how rebuking to our opponents
Then would luxuries, the product ofsIave
labor, be dispensed with-sugar, coffee,
rice, &c. This abstinence resolution would
not be the retaliation of physical expedi-

The following furious, fiery farrago,

Chronicle without note or comment
From the emphasizing, as we'll as from
the pro-slavery sentiments and violent
spirit towards abolition, notorious of that

ctusion that the design Of the editors in
copying the article was to swell the frantic

editors exhausted their own resources, that

RELIGIOUS SUMMARY.

BAPT1sTs IN JAMAICA. The Minutes
Of the Jamaica Baptist Association have
reached us through the London Missona-
ry Herald, for October. The Association
was formed in March, 1886.
The Baptists in Jamaica, owe their orr
gin to the English Baptist missionaries.
The mission among the negroes was COM
menced in 1916 They have now Al sta
tions, or churches (?); l6 missionaries ;
the number of commandments is 1888.
The average number of attendance on
public worship exceeds $4,000. Added
by baptism the last year, 1850 by letter
268; restored l89; total of additions g..
lO7. Diminished during the same peri,
cd, by letter, oil; died, $50; excluded
1853; total amount of decrease, 725; lnav-
ing nett increase of 1852 The mum.
Der of marriages solemnized during the
year, was AIS; the number of children
IN Sabbath Schools was 3,498; in dav
schools 752; in evening schools 473.
This mission, though it has experience
ed much persecution, has been remarka-
bly, blessed from its commencement
blessed to the conversion and spiritual con
ISOLATION of the poor negroes.
During the past summer this mission
has suffered great loss in the death OF
one of their Oldest missionaries, the Rev.
MIR. Coultart. who died in July, By the
rupture of blood vessel. He entered on
his labors as missionary in Kingston in

We would beg leave to remark that abb
oIitionists should beware how they adopt the
plea of the STAKEHOLDER. "Stern necessity''
is his sovereign argument, his never-failing
plea, for continuance in slave-holding. 1t
may be we'll to ask ourselves whether, five
adopt the principle that abstinence from the
product of slave labor is duty, our absti-
hence ought not to be total. So we think.

REvIvALs AND ABoL1TIoN.-Ar recent
number of the Buffalo Spectator contains
an interesting account Of revival in LIE
Roy, Genesee Co., this State. The ac
count begins as follows:
Br. Pcet-Some months since, it was
our priviIegeto occupy your columns in
declaring what the Lord had done in our
congregations. With plcaeure we again
would ask a brief space, to record the
continued goodness of the Great Head of
the Church. The revivas of last spring
left a haIlowed influence, which has been
felt ever since. Particularly in LIE Roy,
where the wor k was peculiarly extensive,
thorough and powerful, there has heen an
interesting stare of feeling until this time.
Occasional conversions have occurred
and a spirit Of prayer has been manifest
near y the whole season.
Then follows an interesting account of
the recent revival This is the place
where there was great excitement on the
subject of abolition a few months before
N. Y. Emancipator.

Views ABOUT SLAVERY, ABOLITION,
&C.-Two individuals from a town in the
interior of Ohio, have ordered a discon-
tlnuance OF the Cross and Journal-one,
because it gives countenance to the aboli-
ton scheme-the other because it does
not give countenance to it. We are at
loss to know the grounds of either order,
for we take neither side in this matter
Cross and Journal
Had we been a subscriber to the Cross
and Journal, probably there would have
been third paper stopped, for still another
reason, viz: that the paper undertakes to
be neutral, Indifferent, "neither cold nor
hot" on this subject of such vital impor-
lance to republicanism to Christianity, to
undying souls. How a religious paper
can, at this day, occupy such ground, is,
to US, most astonishing

"THERMoMETER OF THE HEART"

THERMOMETER OF THE HEART"-
For the want of an engraver, we are un-
able to transfer, entire, the article in an
other column, from the Liberator, noticing
a Ladies' Anti-Slavery Fair. We will
however attempt description. There
was small Thermometer ofthe Heart
fastened upon a pillar Of white sugar
The glass tube was filled with rose=color-
ed spirits of wine, which rose with the
warmth of the hand. The scale from the
freezing point upward was thus gradual
ed:' Attic bottom, "SIavery''-above,
but as near as possible, Colonization
SOciety'-a few degrees higher, "Ameri-
can Union'-far above all these, "F1ee
Dlscussiom"--at the top, Immediate
Emancipation -
Now we find one fault with the gradu-
alton. 1t is, that the American Union is
placed whit above Colonization. We
have never seen a particle of evidence
that the former is in any respect prefera-
bic to the latter Place, if you please, the
kentucky Gradual Emancipation Socie-
ty at some little remove above zero but
an institution so completely identical with
slavery and Colonization as is the Ameri-
can Union, so called, should be placed as
near freezing point as possible. If there
is no room to give it parallel standing,
then place it below, rather than above.
