GENERAL INTELLIGENCE.

POWER OF CoNsclENCE.-W When
Smith, the bar-keeper, and accomplice of
Mrs. Doyle, in the murder of the unfor-
tunate sailor in Girod street, surrendered
himself to the police, he confessed that he
had been forced to give himself up by the
terrors of guilty conscience. Ever
since fled from the house, said he, the
corpse of that murdered man has been by
my side--wherever [ 60 the spectre
haunts me, and not for single moment
can shut my eyes against the frightful
pparition-sooner than suffer as have
done for the last few hours, let me be hung
i would rather face the gallows than
be tormented by the direful image Of re-
/ morse and guilt. Such, we are told, was
the substance OF his statement. Had he
listened to the warnings of this friendly
monitor, when the first step in crime was
taken. he might have escaped the horrors
Of unavaiing regret, and the shame of an
! ignominious death-N. O. Bulletin

TEMPERANCE The Addison County AS
socialion passed the following preamble and
resolutions, at its session held at Orwell last
week:
WHEREAS, il has been previously shown that
total abstinence is the only consistent
ground; and whereas the vending per-
petuates the use; and whereas we be-
lieve the time has fully come that it should
be done away from the churches There
fore,
Resotred, l. That we recommend to the
churches 10 make the vending or the using
Of intoxicating liquors, as drinks, by their
members, subject of discipline.
2. That, in the opinion Of this Associa-
ton, the Legislature Of this State have
the constitutional power. and are in duty
bound, to abolish the traffic in intoxicating
liquors as drinks.
3. That the Editor of the Vermont Tele
graph be requested to publish the foregoing
resolutions in his next paper.

the use of other than moral means, and
these kindly and fearlessiy employed, 10
hasten the day of our Nations Jubilee.
Resolced That whilst we would dep
recate the organization of any political
Anti-Slayerv Party, as foreign from our
DESIGNS and disastrous to our enterprise,
vet we hold the professed abolllionist rec
reant 10 the cause of the slave. who gives
his vote for man who refuses to avow
himself prepared to go to the utmost
verge of Constitutional power" FOR the
freedom of speech and the press, the right
of petition, the immediate abolition of
Slavery in the District of Columbia and
interstate Slave trade, and also against
the admission of Texas or any new State
into the Union with Constitution allow
ing Slavery.
ResOlred, That while we behold with
shame and adherence the continuance OF
Slavery in our own land, we most devout-
~ and gratefully recognize the hand OF
God in the triumph of gospel principles
and measures, in recent elevating EIGHT
HUNDRED THOUSAND West India chaltels
TO immortal men without resorting to the
murderous system of expatriation.
Resolred, That we regard that preiu-
dice against the Colored man which de-
MES him an equal participation Of polite
al and social privileges mere y on account
If his color, and which assigns to him the
"odious negro pew in the house of wor
ship, is a Sin which needs to be repented
of and forsaken, before we can conform
to thedivine precept "as would that men
should do to you, do We even SO to them
A letter was read from Heman Allen, O
Burlington, member Of Congress, and can
didate for reelection. The writer. of the
letter expresses himself decidedly in favo
of the adjustment Of slavery and the slave
trade, by Congress, in the District Of Co
lumbia and the Territories, and the proven
ton Of any new Slave-States coming int,
the Union. He also declares that " it wa
an outrage upon the Constitutional right O
the citizens 10 adopt the resolution of tn
2lst of December last" The following ar
his Introductory and closing paragraphs:

The Ne,1- York State Anti Slavery Soci-
eiy has lust held its third annual meeting
at Utica. Brother Goodell, of the Friend of
Man, says it was the most spirited of all the
Anti-SIavery Conventions and Anniversa-
ries he ever attended-and he has attended
. great number. For the consideration of
those who fa.ter themselves that the Anti
Slavery excitement is dying apay," he
states that "upwards of $4,000 was per-
sonally pledged or contributed 10 the funds
of the Society for the coming year. Last
year it was short of $4,000. And upwards
Of $4,000 copies or a new monthly Anti
Slavery paper were subscribed for, in add
ton TO the publications now circulated.
There is not room left in the Telegraph fo
lengthy extracts a, this time. More, here
after, if place can be found. The follow
ing resolutions were adopted, on Colombo
ton. If the last may seem to some to b
anywhat undignifed, it contains vastly NOR

the seventh annual report of the Ameri- !
can Colonization Society under date of
Jan. 20.h 1884 that THE abolition of
slavery in the British West Indies, is
great event, to the consequences of which
are turned with intense interest the eyes
of the civilized world" and we believe
that the consequences will convince the
civilized world, if not the colonizationists,
that immediate emancipation is right,
safe, and advantageous.
Resolved, That the same high consid-
erations of duty which impelled us at the
! outset of our enterprise to repudiate the
American Colonization Society, and its
schemes of African colonization, still urge
US to reject its doctrines and measures, as
not only totally Intellectual for the removal
of slavery, but directly and powerfully
calculated to strengthen and perpetuate
the system ;-as hostile to the prosperity
OF the South-warring on the rights and
interests of the colored race, both bond
and free, whether in America or Africa
inhuman, MISUNDERSTANDING to
the United States constitution, which
guarantees inviolable rights and immuni-
ties of American citizens-and utterly I'M
worthy the confidence of Christians and
of men,
Resolved, That the system of Ameri-
can colonizationism is faithful but pitt
| ful scare-crow likeness of American slave
ry-a miserable sham-horridly armed
with the teeth of shark
