Social Condition of Australia.

The Melbourne Argus of September 9TH sup
plies the following picture of social life in Aus
tralia. The sketch is at once an illustration of
the workings of British colonial rule, and COM
mentary on the spirit which leads the British
press to gloat over outrages perpetrated on the
United States frontier, while silent to the dis
organized condition of an outlying portion of it's
own empire;
apart from the natural effects of rich gold

least a very adventurous character, our near

Britain recklessly persists in pouring the

The Old Folks at Home.

The St Louis Inteuigencer, syeaking of the
warm m-heartedness of the Irish immigrants at the
West. and their remittances to their families,
kindred and friends at home, in small sums
says:
'.They are the tokens of slow and honest toll
coined of tbe sweat of the laborer's brow and
stamped with the careful economy of many weary
days. Drafts on England from 81 upwards'-so
the agents notice reads. Only five dollars-to
be sent three thousand miles! The first fruits.
perhaps, of the harvest reaped in the land of
promise. The cluster of grapes, like those pluck
ed of old at Eschol, going hack to assure the
anxious. fainting hearts, still sojourning in the
wilderness, that the spies sent out to the
new land. have found-not fruit for the mere
plucking. but what is better-work TO do, and
good wages for it, and something to lay by.
These slender drafts-how much IF humble and
genuine romance may not hang around some Of
them"

The Temperance Convention just
closed in Boston passed off without any
of the exciting scenes which chracter-
lied the New York Conventions. The
cause of this is ascribed to the early
passage of a resolution excluding wo-
men from taking part in the Con-
vention. W. L. Garrison made an
effort the second day to have this rule
rescinded, but his motion was voted
down. As the Maine Law has been
passed in that State, the principal SUBJ
jects of discussion were the proper
means of enforcing it.

&c gay-gallant' little too freely to a
distiller's daughter-quite overstep-

demanded sharply, "what excuse he
had for such conduct ?" Nothing /"
was the reply but exuberance Of
