At the State Council Friends of Temperance, held at Goldsboro last week. Rev. Jno! NAudrcws was elected President for the ensning year. Mr. Andrews is a member of Mt. Olivet Council of this r.Uyt which is icpresented to be in a flourishing condition; and, as he has been av faithful laborer in the Temper ance cause, we cousider it a well de served compliment." Goi.Dsr.oiio' Council. The Kaleid oscope says: vithinthe last week thirty-three homes' liavc been enrolled anion the champions of Temperance, in tins' very place, which has ever be eu considered a stronghold of the enemy. The lovely ladies, God bless them, are now joining our ranks in numbers, mid with their bright smiles to cheer Us c n to victory, we surely cannot fail. Our Work 'There is a very great imposition Jon the part of Connclhv Velearrf, ;totnfnJ meetings into social gatherings, where fun and frolic are allowed to pre dominate, to the exclusion of - temper ance spedhes, essays and songs. In f instances, needless legislation is indulged in, mnch to the injnry of the Order, and, oftentimes, to the disgust of the older members, who go there for the sole purpose of pushing forward the" temperance cause. ' r f ; r if These things should-not he allowed. The Council room is not a fit place for any of these things!; , y All who'enter tbe portals of onr Or dcr take upon themselves an obligation to " promote the i harmony advance ihe interest, and preserve unsullied,' -the reputation of the'Friends of Temper- ance. ' If they wonfef keep, this vow faithful ly, they should guard against all ' inno vations whose tendency is to defeat the purposes of our work. They should be careful to maintain the best - order, and contribute their utmost to the har mony as well as dignity- of ,theA meet ings, remembering always the canse in whose interest they are, met together. When we go to a meeting e should never lose sight of the fact, that it is a temperance .meeting, and nothing else, That we mce to, talk of, temperance and to devise the most successful means of battling against intemperance; and instead of wasting our time in making useless motions and in ofiVring use less resolutions, it should be our con stant aim to keep before our minds, and especially the minds of tho younger members, the great object which brings us together as a .brotherhood. A Council that spends its time in wrangling ver lit'.le motions ' and resolutions which do not tend to ad vance the cause of temperance had bet ter - surrender its charter it is ac complishing no good. Brethren, be careful upon this point, If good order is not maintained mid the principles of our Order ever: kept prominently in the minds of members, your Council meetings will soon cease io be attractive to those who really- do love the cause and are anxious to work for it. ' ' N. C. Railroad, clip the following item We of interest 18th : from the Standard of the " By action of the Board of Directors the Is oi th Corolina Railroad has been leaded to the Raleigh and Gaston Rail road Company for a. term of twenty years, ihe Raleigh & Gaston Road is to pay as an annual compensation, six per cent on the capital stock of the Xorth Carolina Railroad Company.-- This w ill make annual payment of 240, 000, which is a very much larger sum than the road has ever been able to earn. " The Raleigh & Gaston Road binds itself to keep in first class order the road and rolling stock of the North j Carolina Railroad. The effect of this transaction has been to already double the price of the stock of the North! Carolina Company, which is now valued; lit over fifty dollars per s'.are. This action of the Directors will, of coursej be submitted to a meeting of the Stock) holders." - j Nothing is said of its management but we persume that Maj. Smith, who has made a most excellent President during the past firlcen months wil continue at the head of the road. The Wilmington Star of the 13th "There were five cases up fordrunkj- enness. yesterday' morning, before the Special Court, who contributed between 30 and $35 to the city treasury." Who can estimate the amount of sor row and suffering which those " five .... ..Sr?. ,.. ......... s ... ... ' r .!' cases" contributed to the heart's treasu ry at home? Five cases of drunken ness, will in -ninety-nine casos out of every hundred bring sorrow to a scoreH of )v arts the hearts of fathers, moth) ers, wives cud children. Groveller know. this, md yet they continue to sell. Law-makers know it, but they continue to license the traffic which produces the mischief. ... - m :-j' The revolution in Spain contirmcs to increase in importance. The present government seems to be as objectiona ble to the masses as was the Bourboii dynasty, and the spirit of reslless?tes is every where mautfesting itself.

' ; ; -m- i : The News says that steps are being taken to build a church in Weldon. . For the Friend. Intemperance. ' Among fhe evils of Intemperance much importance is given to the pover ty of which it is the cause. Ii is like all other vices deceitful and seductive. Excess in eating or drinking is the gen eral idea of it, but we may' observe, that whatever indulgence , undermines the health, impairs the senses, inflames the passions, clouds and sullies the rea son, penerts the judgment, enslaves the will ;' or in any, way disorders or debilitates Jthe, faculties, may be ranked under this vice. '...; ; , , The evils of Intemperance appear in the following bad effects: 1st. It be trays most constitutions eiiher i to ex travagance of anger, or suitor lewdness. 2nd. It disqualifies men for the duties of the?.r station, both by the temporary disorder of their faculties, and at length oy a constant incapacir.y ana stupeiac- tion. 3rd. It is attended with expense. '4th. It is sure to occasion uneasiness to the family of the drurikaid. 5th. It shortens life. Gth. It is a most perni cious, awfnl example to others. : 7th. It is hardly ever cured. 8th. It is a violation of God's word. Prov. xx, 1. Eph. v, 13!. Is v. 2. Rom. xiii, 13.. Intemperance is a vice which is as an. vcient as it is odious. It was probably as great a nuisance in Jerusalem two thousand years ago, as it is in New 'York to-day. The vice of Intemper ance is, however, so common, that were all men who indulge in it shunned and denounced by all who abstain from it, there wouiu unquestionably oe a very, great majority of the proscribed black sheep over the seceeding ones. The evil of the habit is confessed by thou sands who are addicted to it, and they endeavor, to excuse a practice which thev do not attempt to justily, by say ing tiiat it is-involuntary that they would be glad to abandon it, but can not. This is a mistake. Any bad hab it may be overcome by persistent watch fulness and a resolute will.. v ; , We "often sneak of th? miseries which the "drunkard caYries to his family. We talk ot ins wile and eniidren in r;isrs. Let those rags continue, bnt suppose them to be the effects ot an innocent cause. We are t poor in, this world's goods rich in affection J arid ' religious trust." ' What breaks the heart jof the drunkard's wife? Jt is not that he is ooor. but that he is a drunkard. It . is t-uch a husband that makes home a hell sit venia verba. In vinw of this, should not therefore, the Temperance men use all their exertions to abate this growing eil? Shoild any remain si lent? No. . If in a city, many hun. dred inhabitants were suddenly se zed with sickness, and many of them were seen dying, if in a few hours large fam ilies were swept away, and whole streets shrouded'in gloom, and if the number cf the dead, and the danger of the living were" st ill increasing, would nut souubody be anxiously concerned, at least a tew given to solemn thought? Should this general war and stanlm? mortality all be traced to one common c:uiscthe poisoning of the waters! which supplied that city, should some vigilant officer app inted for the public good, detect this poisom would it not be humanity loving, to sound an alarm? Supposing iome say half of that migh ty city Were not stiff ring, and - were not disadvantaged, wOuld it not be- lu inous, nay inhuman, tor the -guidance of that city's welfare, to a-gue, there fore I may be silent? Would not this very silence be the occasion of more harm, disease and death? This over whelming scene of city misery reminds one of the dying and the dead that have been destroyed by that other poison, the poison of Alcohol. How many s has it made widows,- children tunfed to orphans, homes m desolated, pronlrty consumed, heart broken, life ialcth awy ? all but "plainly portray the fnischievous effects V of Alcoholic drinss. In the home of poverty, and in tie mansion of affluence, over the city and through the country, are to be f found men and women, addicted to the vicer fof moderate drinking, i These death-doomed victims are being counted by the thousands. Shall not, therefore, the christian philanthropist, , social re former, sonnd alond the note of warn ing: Wine is a ptocker, strong driok; is raging, and whosoever is de ceiteo! thereby, is not wise, Who hath woe? Who hath .sorrow ? Who bath contentions ? Who hath babblings ? Who hath .wounds without a cause ? Who hath readness of eyes? -they that tarry, long at the cop they that go to seek mixed wine?" It is said that ma ny drink for health. This is a mistake. Neither winejor any Alcoholic drink cn make blood; .such drinks boritain no "m.lfrtire-princtple, they contribute noth ing healthful to the system. Mine drink for excitement. X Wilkes Booth; before he could kill the late , President, rap into a -near Restaurant crying, brandy I. brandy ! His victim was set ting helpless in a box, yet the murder er was too cowardly to strike his blow until his blood was filled "and boiling with inflaming alcohol. Immoderate drinking is shameful. " This was illus trated in the first scene- of drunken ness. This was four thousand years ago." The exposure of the father, and the conduct of his son Ham were shame ful. This the old patriarch saw and felt when he awoke from his wine. Many a blush has crimsoned the sister's xjheek, as the brother reeled in her presence many a wife has been con fused, when she had to own her stag gering hushand many a mother has felt like sinking, when she looked at her drunken children. The drinkers, themselves, have been frequently made ashamed. See the inebriate awaking, after a niirht of debauch. O, how ear ly he is put out of countenance ! With what, -a downcast eye he walks through the house, how he shuns the company around him, how self-condemn d he feels.' " These are but a few instances of th evils of Intemperance, and does it not convey, iu an 'alarming manner, that; there is a great vwrk, and that in a largo field (ihe world,) to be per forted by the Temperance- men ?

Church, South, I found it impracti cable to meet with my brethren in State Council I trust this explanation will be satisfactory to them. Our first duty is to the church and then we may join heartily in auxiliary enterprises. 1 propose to give you a one! view ot what I saw and heard, Abingdon, Vir giuia, the seat of the Conference, is a handsome town on the Virginia and Tennessee Railroad, and numbers about fifteen hundred inhabitants. The placer is favored with churches of nearly all the denominations,' including Svcden borgians. The Presbyterian, Baptist and Episcopal churches were thrown open for the use of the Conference, and our brethren occupied their pulpits du ring the session. The Catholics have a Female School in the place. Here is located that splendid Institution Mar tha Washington Female i. ollege un der the care of our own Church de nominational, but not sectarian. As you will have learned, the Con ference waspiesided over by Bishop Doggett, who greatly endeared himself to us all by his ability, his courtesy and piety. His sermon i Sabbath, betoru a laree audience in Temperance Hall, (a 'good place,) was surely one of the best I ever heard. Tne .Missionary anniver sary was held on Saturday night crowd immense. Drs. T. O. Summers of Nashville, and W. E. Munsey, Mis sionary Secretary, were the speakers, and it is sufficient to say that -those geuib men lull) sustained . their 'splen did rVputation. Five hundred dollars 'were collected.' "'H'"i -rf;s- 'v.. ' ImerestiuK Sabbath School exercises were held iu . the Methodist Church Sunday morning. Bishop Doggett ordained the dea cons iu the morning and the elders in the evening. - The last night of the session, at which we had preaching, six persons were converted, among them two 'in teresting Choctaw girls, who are stu ,. tit Mt Mnrtiia WashitiiTton. The in- tercbt manifested by the people in these children of the forest was touching and commeudabie. It is a irood thing, my brother, that the Gospel ot our Lord reaches the red man as well as the white man and this is doubtless a withfciiir rebuke to Scio4iMiu . i Anitilirst Uie, man v happy acquain tahCemadeJ I numher' that of Mrs. Fi yd thVad-rfeiict of the lamented Gen.

Frank Preston ot Kentucky, and sister otllou Wl C. Preston,' U. S. Senator from South Carolina.

Vaxce. Horrors of the Indianapolis Dis . . . aster. The details of the t'i nbie eftVcts of the late boiler explosion ii th- fair grounds at ' Indianapolis are h artren ding. It seems to be establMu d that the cause of the exjlosicn ... w -.s that there. was but little water in the boiller and the flues were greatly heated. The scenes that followed .the explosions were terrible. .Where the engine stood there was no perceptible trace except an area of smoke blackened ground. The Indianapolis Journal says : To attempt to pen a picture" f the scene wereoily. Imagine tiftc n thni snnd people, palled 'with fear, nihii.g and crushing to and fro, iinpelled by u nrtmeless someihing towards . in uikI' finable object. , Men bearing dead and wounded into various balls, woiikVi shrieking and crvinu'for fear their hns- bands, sons or brothers might be among the killed, strong men. convulsed and'in tears b. cause temporarily separated t'ron their wives and cliildi c n. and in susjiense as to their safety. A lare piece of the boiler which musV have weighed five hundred pounds, carried to a distance of a hundnd yards. One smaller piece thrown clear into the time track and skipping over it buried itself in the sod beyond. Another large piece was -thrown westward, clear over the dye upon the cattle pen. In almost very .direction smaner pieces oi tnr machinery were thrown, and the 'an was literally full of splinters, bolts, screws, nuts, pieces of rods and such of the lighter portion of the engine. Innu merable are the stones told -of how- deadly missiles alighted just in front ot tne people, arrested iv a ciacious providence in their deadlv flight. The following are among the horrible inci dents-of the catastrophe. A man wa king in front of the execu tive headqnaters was startled at seeing the skull of a man drop in front of him the flesh actually so led off the bones. but the eyes and teeth still remaining in their sockets and jaws. Several yards from the disaster was found a pair of legs held together by the merest fih red of flesh. At one place was the headless trunk a of man : at another was the leg of a woman, with her boot and stocking and a part of her drawers still upon it ; the arm of a man was driven into a poplar board ; while not far from Power hill was seen the body of a woman so horribly mutilated that her heart, stomach, liver and lungs could readily be eem When first dis covered her heart was still palpitating and motion of the organ was plainly ob served. ' . - In the Agricultural Hall were lying four, bodies, a lumped, almost unrecog nizable mass of charred, roasted and scalded humanity. Mr. John E. Foun dray, with a friend, was sitting in a carriage on the east side of Power Hill. They both saw;a piece of the Ixiiler coming towards them, when Mr. Foun dry's triend pushed him as:de, and the deadly iron imbedded itself in; the ground not three feet behind him. The scalp"' of a man was found near the stair way to the amphrth atre. f A mother ami three children were Mandii.g in a group near the boiler. Ti.emo'ber was ;nt!ntlv killed, and two of th cldl- dren badly scalded.' The third escaped uninjured. A gentlema'i and Hdv were walkiim with 1- eked aims The gentleman was killed and ihe, lady un - injured. Quite a number ot persons were thrown to the ground with c u- hiderable force, many of whom) were picked up in an, insensible condition. A baby w.igon was struck by a -iec of the flvinir iron nnd. the wagon ut terly demolished but the child in it .left unhurt. ," I ' " ' " A piece of the boiler was blow n into the cattle shed two hundred yards, where it passed th tough the root and knocked the ips off thehorns off the mammoth ox, but doing him. no other injury.! -m r; ';'.
