LONDON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1851.

We some time since directed the attention of our
readers to the complaints made by the Brazilian Go-
vernment and by the Brazilian shipowners of the
unjustifiable and disgraceful, not to
say piratical,
conduct of the officers of certain British cruisers, who,
under the pretence of suppressing the slave trade,
were, in fact, annihilating the whole of the coasting
trade of the Brazils, by wantonly plundering of their
property the subjects of a state in alliance with our
own, and the Government of which was, according to
the admission of Lord PALMERSTON himself, ener-
getically exerting itself to honestly carry out by
every means in its power the treaties into which it
had entered with this country for the suppression of
more
tthan arrivals
an fromconfi r St.m ,
alall Helena
unhappily confirm, andthat
the slave trade. The last
we had previously
heard in relation to the unjusti-
fiable manner in which, under pretence of suppressing
the slave trade, the laws of nations are too often
violated, and the private property of persons engaged
in legitimate traffic made valueless by certain British
officers, whose zeal outruns their discretion, and who
think more of the plaudits of Exeter Hall, and, it
may be perchance, of that which BYRON has:declared
is especially dear to seamen—prize-money, than of
observing the Tights' of the subjects of other
states. It appears that the Brazilian vessel Ma-
gano, bound on a coasting voyage from one port of
Brazil to another, was fallen in with by her MAJEm's
ship Geyser, seized by the British commander on
the pretext that she was engaged in the slave trade,
and sent to St. Helena for adjudication. After a
protracted investigation before a Court which may be
presumed to have been anything but favourable
to the Brazilian owner, the vessel was
acquitted. It might have been imagined, under

_ ... .
these circumstances, that some compensation

would have been awarded to the unfortunate
Brazilian for the detention he had undergone,
the damage which had been done to his property,
and the false imprisonment he had suffered. Such,
however, we regret to say, was not the case ; he re-
ceived neither costs of suit, nor damages for the loss
of his voyage, nor for the injury his vessel had sus-
tained, nor for the anxiety which he had suffered,
and when his vessel was restored to him she was
completely dismantled, having been entirely
stripped, and all but broken up, by her captors in
the vain attempt to discover something either in her
fittings, her rig, or her build which would enable
them to transform an honest. Brazilian coasting vessel
into an African slave trader. Under these circum-
stances the Brazilian captain has addressed the fol-
lowing letter to the editor of the St. Helena Advocate,
and we commend it to the attentive perusal of all
those who are not so far gone in the " Black fever "
as to have lost not only their common sense, but all
feeling of honour, honesty, justice, and fair play. He
says—

THE SUN, LONDON,

ships and vessels engaged in the suppression of the
traffic. Recent events have strongly fortified the po-
sition of those who demand the suppression of the
African squadron.

A question of considerable interest is now depend-
ing between the Board of Inland B,evenue and the
different railway boards throughout the kingdom—
of interest not only to all persons who have made in-
vestments in railway stock, but far more so to the
hard-working operatives, who, cooped up in large
towns for the greater portion of their time, are
anxious occasionally to get a glimpse of rural scenes,
and to breathe pure air, for a few hours during their
intervals of toil. From the excursions which the en-
terprise and liberality of the directors place within
their reach they return with renovated health and
spirits to their daily labours. They have something
to speak of during the week, and a legitimate object
for which to lay by such sums as may be set aside
from their daily earnings, after providing the neces-
sary subsistence for their families. In this respect
not all the temperance societies ever formed under,
the auspices of Father DlATunw have exercised so
salutary an influence in keeping working men from
the public-houses, and preventing them from applying
their surplus cash, be it much or little, in sottish
carousing, as the cheap excursion trains to different
places of public resort and interest, which have lately
been rendered accessible to all classes.
The enjoyment, too, is not entirely selfish. The
man who has expended a few shillings in a trip to
Dover, or Brighton, or the Isl© of Wight, to Hamp-
ton Court or Windsor, will not rest until he is enabled
to bring with him his wife or sweetheart; and if the
former, the baby is probably made the companion of
their trip. Every nerve will be strained to accom-
plish the desired object. Extra work will readily
be undertaken, every privation cheerfully submitted
to, if at the end of his probation he can
act as the cicerone, pointing out the miracles of
nature or art, which he has himself beheld for the
first time a few weeks previously. How will lie enjoy
the wonder excited by the first view of the sea. How
will he rejoice in explaining all about " Shakespere's
Cliff," or " the Pavilion," or " Portsmouth," or the
Isle of Wight, or Stonehenge. Possibly the great
Park at Windsor—the tamer and more cultivated
beauties of Virginia Water or Hampton Court, or the
artistic glories in the magnificent galleries may attract
his attention, but in any of these cases, whatever
may be the subject of his prelection, he will feel al-
most greater pleasure in detailing and explaining the
various attractions, than his attentive and admiring
audience will have in receiving the coveted in-
