PHILANTHROPY OF ENGLAND.-The Jealous an
xlety exhibited by the English press and people re-
sPectng anything which can be tortured into pro-
slavery tendency, is fast becoming disease OF the
national mind. The ingenuity which is exhibited
IN this way, shows the morbidity OF the feeling Ii
is philanthropy run mad. For instance, rumor
Prevailed some two months ago, that manacles, SINH
lar to those used by slavers for securing the safe
transit OF the victims whom they kdnap, had been
found amongst the debris Of the American frigate
Missouri, that sunk some time ago of Gibraltar.
The notice OF this circumstance has been revived
during the last three or four days, by our London
namesake, who POUNDS on it most serious and un-
charitable charge against the American govern
ment, to the effect that the sunken steamer, al
though ostenslbly vessel of war belonging to the
United States, was covertly engaged in the slave
trade !! Now, the least acquaintance with the re-
qulrements OF the British-which in this instance,
are the same as those of the American-navy,
ton, on the part Of the leading journal,' as un-
called tor as II Is objectionable. For the prompt
suppression OF mutlny, every vessel OF war-Britsh,
French, American, and all others alike-carries
some hundreds OF these IRON peace makers and the
"manaces," which the jaundiced philanthropy of
our contemporary designs for the wrists and idnibes
oi Its black proteges, were only intended, if the
necessity arose, to preserve order and discipline
amongst the republican sons OF Neptune on board
the Missouri. IPiimcr's Times, Sept. q.
Hobart I0,sn advertiser OF the 18th of March, has
Just come to hand. Ii contains the names of 29l
convlcts who have received at the hands of the
Lieutenant Governor tickets OF leave, and condi-
tiona pardon, available within the limits of the Aus
tralian Colonies. The editor OF the journal above
quoted, makes some admirable remarks upon the
condition of convicts and the poor of England, and
argues that the latter are driven to crime by the
we're operation OF the poor law and he mlg ght have
added, by the combined influence of the Corn and
Game Laws. With regard to the pauper and the con-
vict, showed about fortnight ago that the latter
is much better fed than the former, even in thus

sumptuously, while his work is by no means abo-
rious The Hobart Io,on Advertiser thus places the
matter in juxta-pOsltlOn:-
