The above work is intended for the perusal of those who
have in early life been induced to swerve from the strict rules
of morality. In its pages fatAs of paramount utility are
brought together, wholly divested of tne delusions and incon-
sistencies so largely introduced into certain quasi metiical
publications given to the world grafi., under the guise of
philanthropy, or as "acts of gratitude," by pretended clergy-
men and others, whose tamperings with the constitution
frequently followed by serious =IMMO.

The Pluto, 4, paddlewheel steamvessel, Lieut.-
Commander C. H. Siinpson, arrived at Spithead
early yesterday morning from the West Coast of
Africa. She sailed from Sierra Leone on the 12th
of March, with only 50-horse-power at work, being
partially disabled. She had excessively strong gales
off the Canary Islands, which compelled her to put
into Santa Cruz to coal. Off the mouth of the
Tagus she was again caught in a terrific gale, which
compelled her to bear up for Lisbon, where she lay
until the 13th. Had she rot had a port under her
lee to run for, it is the opinion of the officers on
board that on this occasion she must have been lost.
She met with a continuance of gales until the Bay
was crossed, from north to north-east. On the 16th
she bore up for Vigo, where she remained at anchor
until the 19th, and had no sooner sailed thence than
she was again compelled to anchor under the land
from the violence of the weather and her small
amount of steam power. She put to sea on the fol-
lowing morning, when another gale compelled them
to come to an anchor in Corcubion Bay, where her
Majesty's steamer Medusa, Commander W. Bowden,
was found at anchor, on her voyage from the West
Coast to England, with her rudder damaged. She
sailed on the following morning for Ferrol to pro-
cure a new one. The Pluto sailed from Corcubion
Bay on the morning of the 24th, and on crossing
the Bay on the 25th was compelled to dismount the
pivot gun and send the jibboom in to make the ship
snug. Afterwards the weather moderated. The
Pluto sailed from England in the first instance for
the West Coast of Africa on the 3d December, 1857,
but, striking on a rock on reaching Sierra Leone,
she returned to England for repairs, after which she
again sailed for the same station on the 13th of
July, 1857, since which time she has been employed
on different parts of the coast. She has taken two
prizes—one an empty brig without papers or,
colours, condemned; and the other a fine bark with
888 slaves on board at the time of her capure, which
took place on the morning of the 30th of November
last, in lat. 415 S., long. 930 E. The bark was
discovered soon atter daylight, about eight miles
distant, with all sail set, but the Pluto having her
fires banked, got up steam, and, giving chase, soon
came up alongside her prize and captured her. She
was afterwards sent into St. Helena and condemned.
The accommodation for the slaves and the means
taken to insure their health, as far as possible in a
vessel of her description, are described as having
been admirably arranged. She gives a good sum
in prize-money to her captors. The Pluto has been
remarkably healthy while on the coast, and has lost
only one of her crew since leaving England, and he
died from consumption. Her crew are a fine sailor-
looking set of men. She proceeds to Woolwich to
pay off.
