A Gu;ltv Consc;ence-The mower q

Il Guilty Conscience.-The power OF
guilty conscience was strikingly illus
trated short time since, on an Europe
an Railway. A murder and robbery
had been committed in Berlin, and one
Of the passengers incidentally remarked
that the criminal was sure TO be taken
sooner or later. On hearing this a
young man jumped from the car windo W
the train was stopped, and this young
man who had broken both his legs and
an arp in jumping from the train. was
found to answer the description of the
murderer, and on being questioned he
admitted the crime.

~ A dispatch from Savannah say

~ A dispatch from Savannah says
that the officers of the steamship Conway
at that port give intelligence that all but
two Of the passengers by the ill>fated
ship. William and Mary. wrecked short
time since on the Great Isaacs, near the
Great Bahama Banks, when it was sup
posed nearly two hundred were drowned
have been rescued by wrecking
schooners, whilst the ship was drifting,
and previous to her going down. The
editor of the Sun. who had cor versation
with two of the sailors which escaped
with the captain, makes the following
statement of the manner in which that
worthy left his ship:
The sailors say the long boat was capa-
bic Of holding one hundred persons, but il
had been placed bottom up, upon the house
amidshi2s, and the sun had opened the
seams until they could be seen through
Yhey also sa id il was this condition Of the
long boat that made the Captain slip of 10
the life boat as soon as he got an opporiu-
nifty. He feared that the long boat would
moi live half an hour in the wafer.
The sailors, however, WHO were still on
board, got some oakum, and commenced
caulking The lie boat as well as they could.
Al daylight, no assistance being in sight.
and the ship filing, the mate and second
male slipped off and go. on board the life
boat in which the sailors were. We asked
the sailors how the captain came on board
their boat. They said that after the mate
came aboard, he and the captain kept
making signals TO each other. The captain
knew If he attempted to leave openly, the
passengers would prevent him; SO he
watched his opportunity, and after two
sailors, who were from the same place with
him, and The mate, had managed TO get 10
the life boat, the mate made q signal, the
captain came asiern 10 ask him; it he wan.
ted a quajraui, then slipped down upon
the sunken boat, the life boat was hauled
up and the captain stepped aboard. The
painie: was cut, and the boat sprang of.
One Of the sailors says the sight Of the pas
sengers, when they saw the captain had
lei, them, will never leave his eyes. II has
since haunted him, and prevented sleep
He feels, he says, as if he saw them all
going 10 be murdered at one blow. Their
looks and cries were terrible. The captain
never cast his eyes round from the moment
he left the ship.
The sailors say that they did not see the
ship sinking. and they do not believe any
10 the boat saw her sinking. as she was ia
sight for an hour and half after they Iell
her, and they were making good speed
running before the wind. They saw the
hing boat picked up by a bark steering Or
the Gulf; the long boat was then abOHi II
miles distant fIom the wreck. The cspiaiI
| seems 10 have been completely psralyzed
| The calls were Ielt standing, and the shiy
and passengers were left TO the mercy o
the winds and the waves. Such case o
helpless despair, or cOwardice, as the sailor
called il in making their statements, wei
4 never before witnesses.

F1RE.-A terrible confagration has
occurred ia the woods bordering upon
Ottowa, Canada. Fires were kindled
for the purpose Of clearing the land, but
the result was most destructive. The
fires spread in all directions, and the &C
count says that hundreds Of families,
embracing persons Of all ages and sex
es, literally pursued by the flames, had
to fee in all directions, with nothing sa~
we'd except the clothes in actual use.
which. in many instances were seorcbed
and partly consumed ON the backs of the
fuyi,ires. The devastation extends
about seventy miles in length BY forty
in breadth, over fourishing country,
nearly one half of which has been COM
pletely laid waste.
We have as yet heard Of only one
fatal casualty-an aged man named
Thrasher' who persisted in a vain at
tempt to save some Of his property
The scene Of the calamity being in the
vicinity and ON both sides Of the O.ta>
va, many individuals took refuge in the
river to protect themselves from the iu-
tense heat. A small steamer, belong
ing to Mr.. Gould. that plies on the
Muskrat River, assisted some Of the in
habi.ants in making their escape. Even
ehey we're nearly compelled 20 abandon
her, owing to the excessive heat Of The
woods burning on both sides of the riv'
CT.
Upwards of Eve hundred families have
been reduced from tolerabls competence
to Q nearly destitute condition. in many
instances without food for present ne
cessities, clothes 70 cover. or houses t
shelter themselves !; and what is, If pos
sibls. even worse, without the means o
pursuing the necessary ngriculturA
operations Of the season.

Bible COnVentlen.
The convention Of atheists, called By
Andrew Jackson Davis, VIM. Lloyd Gar.
risOn and others. 10 investigate the Su-
thOrity and discuss the influence of The
Bible, commenced its session at Hartford
on Thursday morning last. At one Of
its first sessions a rule was established
limiting each speech to forty minutes in
length. and allowing the friends and op.
ponents Of the Bible TO speak alternately,
which rule was followed until Saturday,
when some Of the anti Bible men desired
to expel the defenders of the Bible, and
argue one side alone. But this was not
accomplished. and the two supporters OF
the Bible, Rev. Messrs. Storrs of Brook.
lyn and Turner Of Hartford, took their
turn in answering the arguments of its
opponents. The convention embraced
about the same class as composed the
late Spiritual Convention at Springfield,
and is under the superintendent Of A.
j. Davis, Prof. Britain, Rev. Mr.. Finney,
Mrs. Ernestine Rose, and others famous
in the circles of Spiritual Knockings and
Woman's Rights.
On Saturday evening Mrs. Ernestine
L. Rose, a native Of Poland, engaged the
attention of the Convention, uttering the
most impious revilings, until the house
resounded with Kisses, stamping. yelling,
&c. Finally, some one gained access to
tie gas~meter, turned off the gas, and
cnveloped the whole assembly in dark
ness; after ten minutes of Undesirable
confusion. the burners were lighted. and
the meeting dispersed.
- The following day, Sunday was oc-
eupied by Davis. Mrs, Rose and others.
In the evening, Mr.. Garrison addressed
the meeting, and order was maintained
until an unreasonably late hour, when
Madame Rose made her appearance, and
another row ensued. Policemen inter.
fered, sword canes were Aourished, a
general scutfle took place. and the meet
ing broke up; some arrests were made.
Thus ended the Hartford anti. Bible
Convention. Among others, the follow.
ing resolutions were presented on Friday
Resolved, That il is secondary ques-
ton as to wien, where or by whom the
books Of the Old and New Testament
were written; but the primary aad all
important question is, what do they teach
and comma inland in order To ascertain
this they are to be freely examined, and as
readily accepted or rejected as any other
books, according as they are found worth.
less or valuable.
Resolved, That it is the climax Of au-
dacily and lmpiety for this nation 10 receive
the Bible as the inspired Word Of God,
and then to make il penal offence to give
ii 10 any Of the millions who are held as
chal!el slaves on it's soil thus conspirug
TO make them miserab Die here and hereafter.
Resolued, That Judging them BY their
course Of action towards al the reforms OF
the age. and their position in society, the
clergy Of this country as a, body, would as
readily burn the Bible to morrow, if public
sentiment demanded it, and persecution
and loss Of character should be the result
al disobedence, as 10 day they are found
earnest in their endorsement; Of the plenary
inspiration Of that book in accordance with
public st ntiment.
