Bag The State Temperancce Conyentio

gsT The State Temperancce Convention which met in New Britain last week show ed its sense by voting down the following resoluhon:-
 And that We will not give our vote for any can- didate for state office and member of the legisla- ture who is in favor of the repeal of the present prohibitory law.
 The Hartford Post makes the following timely comment on their action:-
 After the result of the recent election in Massa- chusetts every reasonable temperance man sees distinctly that the great national issues of the day must take the lead and other issues must be sub- ordinated to them. There is prevailing convic- ton among the wisest Christian temperance men of the hour, that the hope of the temperance l cause is to be found in the old Washing gtonian movement, that all endeavors to reform intempe- rate men by statute must prove abortive. Young, enthusiastic, hot-blooded men, who are liable to have more zeal than wisdom, may think that the world can be brought to their standard by law But the old and experienced men who have gone through the temperance conflicts of the last thirty Vt ars, know the best work of temperance is to be wrought in our churches, by our ministers, and by the force of love and persuasion. We congratulate the temperance convention of yesterday on the wisdom of its course

On the evening of the 23d inst, T. St. John, much respected resident of this place. committed suicide in the following manner: He had been for some time past in state of great mental depression, and on the evening above mentioned went out into his barn taking with him g. strona rope. By means of ladder he went up to one of the upper beams, attached the rope to it, fastened the other end around his neck, and jumped off. His neck was bro. ken by the fall and he must hayo died in- stantly. He leaves family and many friends to mourn his loss
 On Thursday evening the Rev. MT Melton received visit from his friends. the ladies taking the lead, which took that gentleman somewhat by surprise. Not on- ly were the visitors unexpected, but, still more, the substantial tokens of respect they brought with them. The suddenness with which the enterprise was started and the un- clemency of the evening prevented many from attending who would have delighted in doing so. Nevertheless, after spending an hour in social converse, and twice that time in merry-making, the party broke up lu the best of spirits, testifying, each in hls own way, their appreciation of the ar duous labors of their worthy Pastor.
 A good story is told about celebrated Copperhead who misrepsesented this town in the Legislature at Hartford nos ten years ago.

On Thursday night, of last week, the Firemen's Ball came off at the carriage shop of the Gilman Carriage Go. This large building was lighted throughout, and as no machinery of any account had as yet been put on the premises, it gave the Fire men ample room to "trip the light fantas tic toe, with the various fair ones whom they had invited. There were about l25 couples present, who danced far into the small hours of the night, and 'tis said that the old town clock struck the hour ot 6 A. M, before the last of the jewellers reached their homes in the Borough
