TASMANIA.

There is no political news of interest from Hobart
Town, and the social condition of the community
has been much excited by two murders, the details
of which are not worth publishing.

NEW ZEALAND.

The latest advice, from Auckland are to the 18th
of July, but they do not contain matter of general
interest. Local topics are the great features of the
journals. The same report applies to the other
settlements in the islands.

The Portuguese authorities at Lisbon placed the
Plain=lar and Oriental Company's mail packet Turns in
quarantine on her last voyage, because the hose of the Water-
tank ashore was laid over the ship, the yellow fever being at
he time prevalent ashore at Lisbon.
The American ship Richard Anderson, Captain
Come, left Rotterdam for Baltimore, August W. On the
23rd of September in lat. 44.9 north, lon. 38.12 welt, she
=nag • leak. The water continued to increase In bar, not-
withstanding the exertions that were made, until the 27th,
when she met with a hurricane from the south-west, in which
the mew lost all their sails and boats, and the ship was
thrown on ber beam ends. The cargo got adrift and its
water rapidly increased in the hold. The aim continued in
her until the 29th, expecting every hour the vend would
sink, when the barque Ville de Feaemp mime in eight and
took the captain and crew off the wreck. At that time the
planks were under water. The captain and crew, with the
excepts= of one man, who was drowned, were transferred to
the barque Sir Edward Parry, bound for London. They
were afterwards placed in a pilot boat and landed at Wey-
mouth.

tae Atenntniat MAILS.—The British and North
American Boys! man Steam ship Persia, Capt. Judhios, left
the Mersey on Saturday morning with the usual mails tot
the American continent, a full cargo and 212 passengers.
TILE AESTRALIAX MAlLti.—Orelt complaint, COMO
in to us from all quarters with respect to the neglkmos
which prevails at both the Melbourne and Sydney Poet-
oaken in not forwarding letters and papers which are paid
for to be sent rid Marseilles. One would think that so
simple a matter—especially as all papers and letters are pre-
paid, arid the rate of postage is officially declared to be the
proof of the route by which they are to be sent—could be
easily arranged.—./ 'aeration and New Zealand Quetta.
THE BENGALESE BEFORE TIRE 3IUTINT.—There
are, doubth,s, hundreds of English parents in this country
who remember with feelings of kindliness and gratitude the
nursery bearer', or male flumes, who attended their children.
The patience, the gentleness, the tenderness with which
theme white-robed, swarthy Indians attend the little children
of their European maters, surpass even the love of women.
You may see them sitting for hour after boar, with their
little infantine charges, amusing them with toys, fanning
them when they slumber, brushing away the flies, or peeing
the verandah with the little ones in their arms, droning the
low monotonous lullaby which charms them: to sleep.
And all this without a shadow on the brow, without a ges-
ture of impatience, without a single petulant word. No
matter how peevish, how wayward, how unreasonable, bow
enacting the child may be, the native bearer only smiles,
shows his white teeth, or shakes his black locks, giving back
a word of endearment in reply to young master's imperious
discontent. In the sick-room, doubly gentle and doubly pa-
tient, his noiseless ministrations am continued through long
days, often through long nights, as though hunger end weari-
ness were human frailties to be cast off at such a time, It is
little to say that these poor hirelings often love their mister's
children with greater tenderness then their own. Parted
front their little charges, they may often be seen weeping
hie children themsehee • and have been known, in after
years, to travel hundreds of miles to see the brave young
Endo or the blooming maiden whom they once dandled in
their arms. These men, it la true, ere not Sepoys ,• and it
would seem that the instances are few in which the native
servant, Ulnae° or Mombasa, has turned ageing hit
European master. Bat the Sewer hoe ever shown the
leM• kindness towards the children of his English
enter. Be appeared to rejoice when a man v.hild
was born to his captain, end to share the pride mem-
dersd b the event. Who has not seen the orderly in the
playing with the children of hie carer, and en-
deavouring to attract their Innocent careens? Who would
not have confided his wife and children to the care of such
men ? Wh3 did not feel security doubly secure If a Sepoy
escort attended an English lady on her journey, or • Sspoy
vend were posted at the door f They who knew the Savoys
hut, trusted them most. If any Englishman of long tn-
&elfre with a native regiment had a year ago bars le
believed that, under any oirceznatances, the
offiepoy would
outrage and murder the wives and daughters his caws
sad cut their little children into pieces, he tonic have
answered, without a moment's hmitation, that It was closely
an impoesilatty,—ldiebwrlA Replete, new numbs,.
