EXECRABLE BARBARTTY.

BY statements in various quarters, it seems that the
English pushing with desperate vigor, the means
began by them some time since to get rid Of their
pauper population At every opportune OCCASION the
half starved inmates of their amshouses are packed
off like CATTLE in vessels hired to convey them to the
United States. In this way, the parish officers of
many towns have already freed themselves of vast
number Of diseased, blind, decrepit, old, deformed
and helpless beings. These poor men and women,
who English by birth-after expending their
youth, the flower of their lives-exhausting them
selves body and mind to subserve the cupidity and
administer to the wants of purseproud, luxurious
and never satisfied arstocracy- these broken down
people-who in the extremity of their age and des-
ttuon, have the strongest of all human claims upon
the sympathies and charities of their countrymen-
these unfortunate and suffering beings are now made
outcasts by their fellow ctzens-expatriated
against their w--sent, in despite of their prayers
and tears--thousands of miles over the seas-to a
foreign cline and there, without single hope this
side of the grave-must speedily end their days in
wretchedness and msery-deprved even Of the so
lace that their mortal bodies might rest at last in
the land where they were born and had labored so
long!
Where, in the annals of all the nations of the earth,
can be found act more abhorrently barbarous or
execrable than this Great Britain, the most en-
lightened and potent of Empires is now covering up
her other foul and bloody Deeds by this the blacklist
and most unnatural of public crimes

FOUL DEED.

The steamer Thames, just from Missouri river,

Since the above was written, received note
from the clerk of the Thames, giving the following
particulars:
Gov. Boggs shot by some william on Friday 9th,
in the evening, while sitting in his house
in independence. His son, a boy, hearing report,
ran into the room, and found the Governor sitting in
his chair, with his jaw fallen down, and his head
leaning back discovering the injury done his ia

another probably in the brain-all going in,

AN ANTIQUIT Y.

A curious reicof the olden time was recently dis
inferred from his muddy resting place. at the bottom
of the Lea at Ware, in England. The article allud
ed to is massive silver spoon, weighing about two
ounces, and having the initials M G., and the date
1861. The bowl is nearly circular and of unusual
depth, and as might imagine, would well have
suited the capacious mouth of jolly Benedictne.
From its imperfect condition at one extremity how
ever, we should suppose it to have been of those
"Apostle spoons' which sponsors were at that time
accustomed to present to their godchidren, whereof
our elder dramatists make frequent relation. Apro-
pos of this usage we remember to have met
with an anecdote of Will Shakespeare which is so
characteristic that we cannot forbear appending
it. Shakespeare was godfather to one Of Ben
Jonsons children, and after the christening, being
in deep study, "rare Ben" cheerngly asked him
why he was melancholy Ben" said he, 81
have been considering great while what should
be the fttest gift for me to bestow upon my god
child and | have resolved it at last. g prithee
what" said Ben. &C pfaith,'' answered Shakespeare,
"Ill give him dozen good latin spoons, and thou
shalt translate them. To understand the equivoque,
is unnecessary to observe that latem the
for thin iron timed, of which spoons were some
times made-London paper.

WOOL MANUFACTURES FROM RAGS

The Troy Wing says the machinery recently erect
ed by A. SIearns & Co for the manufacture Of wool
from wooen rags, is now in operation, and is well
worthy the attention of the public The rags are
thrown in the first place into machine in the second
story, where they ground up, and thence passed
through another machine in the lower story filed
with water, which cleanses them from all impurities
The wool thus formed is then passed to free it from
the water which it has absorbed and afterwards sent
up spout with great velocity into the fourth story
where it is dried until fit for use. The wool thus
manufactured is sent to Springfield, Vermont, where
is carded and spun, and finally made into satinet
The machinery Of Stearns g. Co, now in operation
IN that city, is capable Of grinding 1000 lbs of rags
per day. Addt ona machinery will be erected,
which will be capable, if required of grinding $500
lbs. per day.

H. The Neao Fro declares that Mr.. Dorr the
suffrage Governor of Rhode Island, "has never been
member of any Abolition Society whatever" We
nave the authority of gentleman who resided in
Rhode Island few years SINCE for denying the truth
of this statement, and affirming that Mr.. D. was, to
his personal knowledge, for year at least,
tive member of the Executive Committee of the Rhode
Island State Anti-Savery Society. We state this
not any imputation Mr.. Dorr but to expose the
habitual mendacity of the Era That paper further
asserts that the Abooniss generally supported Til
linghast and Cranston against Dorr for Congress.
This is also untrue Garrsons 'Liherator was espe-
cally ardent in support of DOR, claiming him
Aboltionist and issued Extras to promote his election
