1 PHILAKTHRoPY.-The folowing extract exhibits something of the practical effects of that rampant philanthropy. which, neglec,ing and utterly disregard
 ing the condition oi ihe factory slaves at ho,ne roams abroad over the whole face of the earth find objects suited to it's benevolent exersise The degredltion, suffering misery. and utter Restitution of these hre- lings of the factories attract sympathy, claim regard, receive py. It is ihe color of the skin that SO actively arouses their sympathy. That must be black, or the sinking sufferer expect passlon-will receive no aid. This morbid and la natica spirit found the West Indies proper theatre for it's exertons. It visited the fertile and prosper island of Jamacia. IL fell upon it with the dis asrous bgh of the smoon. It's prosperity and beanty ! have perished as if touched by fire. The wrelched negroes who have been emancipa,ed are starving, and the outiaged masters in but little better dltion. Thus has this most mistaken and fatal policy been alike disastrous to both races. In destroying the relations between and save they have de- graded and further deb,sed the egro, and almost ir reparaby injured his former guardian and protector The negro will not work wiihout the coercion of master, even for his own sIstenance and the white man cannot work in he coffee and sugar plantations, under the bun ming rays of tropical It's fertile fife ds are uncuivated and it's cities are now going to decay. Thus system of things, advantageous and agreeable to all parles has been broken up, and ruin to one, and misery, vice, and suffering to the other, has been the consequence.
 And fl the blind and incorporate anaticsm of the North could accomplish its purposes, precisely smi lar results would fall upon the Southern States. The
 
 bt rendered miserable and debased, and the master T. ined The state of things suited to the moral md physical condition of the negro race, winch isis is sought io be broken up, and substituted under the auspices of morbid philanthropy, which would degrade him radidly to the lowest condilon in the scale of humanity This association of graceless zealos styles itself, too, the ''LIberly Party" Tine ends it would accomplish, it impuden,y preiends seek the of liberty nd though cities snud blaze and thousands bleed. as the consequence of their base instrumenailes, yet it is all right, be- cause they are stimulated in ieir efforts by inor dinae love of liberty! We'll may excaim, in the tragic language of Madame ROLAND, on her WA, 10 the scafold, "Oh, Liberty! what crimes have been committed in thy name!'
 The following, from the New York Herald, IS the extract alluded 10.
 "FRoM JAMAIcA,-A vessel arrived at New Orleans on Saturday from Jamiaca. From a letter received in this ciry, dated Xii, gson, Dec. 23, we make the following extract: 'You wish to give the news in this quarter. rea, give you noth-
 ing but bad news, us times are one hundred per cent worse than they were six months ago. with no pros pect of improvement, This island cursed 10 all eternity, and there chance of poor white devil like me of getting ahead' they say in the States. My only aim now is trying to get enough to take myself and family away tp New Orleans, for would prefer dying there to starving here. Atall events, there could be able to give good educa- ,iou to my little ones, and al more reasonable rate than can here.'
 '.The same letter states. as an evidence of the poverty prevailing that since the recent great fire, mot ten houses the six hundred that destroyed have been rebuilt. One day oth- CT, perhaps. the darkes may put up few huts, but that is very unlikely ," "The yellow jack has been making sad havoc, but, of course. confined to those of foreign birth. We are now getting pretty clear of il.' "AIthough this is the 23d of December, and now o'clock m. am in a state of of preparation, wi,h all my win- dows open, while writing this"
 .sSo much for the effect of British philanthrop, in emanci cipaiing the negroes to degrade them, and s,arve their masters. Jamaica, fifteen years ago, the most considerable and valuable island m ihe British possessions. Its government. next to that oi iirehnd, was the richest place in the disposal of the English crown. Look at il now"
