1 Horrible Accident, the Rttutt tf Hellish Ava rice. It becomes our daily duty to record some melancholy instance of the waste of human life, caused bv the criminal carelessness, or still more criminal cupidity, of the owners or managers, of steamboata. 1 hey may now oe property cauea instrumente of death. We have long considered them aa unsafe for the transportation of human beingst have long considered that when a man set foot in a steamboat, he had' reserved but one chance for life a thousand for death But now' rprard almost everv steamboat aa a enamel house, and should almost believe every man who ventured on board of one, weary of the world. 9 And yet this deplorable destruction of human life is not necessarily incident to steam naviga 7 tion.Why then must blood conUnually Uack their wayt Because the gibbet is idlel Because A.

laa fiir the minishment of murder are not in force, and avarice can traffic in human blood We are led to these remark, by a melancholy event which lately occurred on' the Mississippi, and whichif the perpetrators he not prosecuted, convicted and hanged for it, will stamp the go vernroent of Louisiana, or the Federal Govern ment, which ever has jurisdtion over the case, with everlasting dishonour. The steamboat Monmouth was chartered for the transportatiouofa party of emigrating Creek Indians, from New Orleana to the territory as An it. na Hxr.t.nih.riv.r ill i came in cellision With the steamboat Warren, a a and was lost THREE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN OF THE INDIANS PERISHED The New Orleans True American of the 3d inst. from which we obtain this melancholy newsjavs ii is impossible to say which boat was in fault, though the amount of, testimony against the Monmouth But which ever were in fault, the coHision might have been a voided Jor two steam ooan can sasuy pass on mo wunoui running each other jdown. It must therefore have originated in the grossest, the most wanton carelessness, and has resulted jn the murderT of mere than three hundred haiaao beinn! What adds to the enormity of the act ia the i.i jvv lUMuiw.uuuma were vrvwucuvuwa vii this boat, with the most shamelnl disregard to their comfort and safety.

The True American eays that were crammed into thia single boat, and that the crowded condition of its decks and cabins was offensive to every sense and feeling, and kept the psor creatures in a state unfit or human beings. But what is worse, if possible, the American1 say. that the contractors procured old, rotten, unBeawortfiy thus exposed the poor Indians lo almost, certain destruction. If this be true; we cannot imagine greater miscreants upon the (ace of the earth, than these contractors." To procure rotten boats, and overload them wilh human beings, than subjected to the worst of suffering, and all to increase the rofita of is job, is worthy of "Christian dogs," as the more humane Turks very properly call us, 4ut what we should hardly expect of the Arabs 4fthe Desert V'L" But the Federal government ptobably deserves severe censure, for not binding the contractors so strong, as lo preclude all opportunity for fraud or oppression. It oujht to have known that whatever white men undertook to contract with it for the transportation of these Indiana, would I 1 1 improse every opportunity to cheat and oppress th "fbtof life, liberty, character and property, them aad it should have taken all possible pre ThB con(1 re those which society cannot en cautions against such tillany.

But since the ca rce' rom, to define them accaralely tastrophe ha happened, we hope it will do every lb r'ebt 10 uccour in distress, to consolation thin possible te bring these miscreant, to ias lice. The eriminal jurisdiction of the case doubt 1 belongt to the State of Loubi.na; and w. hope to see jt consult its own honor, by having I the contractors, captains, and all concerasd in this wholesale marder, indicted. 1 The Warren had in tow the ship Tremoni, and one account says that the Monmouth ran into the abip. However (his be.

the Monmouth sunk immediately; the'eabin parted from the hull, drifted down the river, and broke in pieces, and all its inmate, were precipitated into the water, Of 61 1 Indians, ouly 300 were saved, and by the exertion, of the crew, of the Vazoo and Warren, The Tremont sustained no other injury than the loss of her cot water. The only while. Joet in tta Monmouth, were its bar ke eper and one fire tan. i I Lyncking few day. aioce, we.

found in the Commereial Herald, an editorial declaration that Captain Baiter, who reported at Providence that he saw a ship on fire off the Cape, of the Delaware, deserved to be Lynrhti, for net at teatpttDg to render assistance, er for circulating ach airport, if it were not tra. Not wiah notice it at a lime when due censure of ii 'tf construed into want of eraser srmDsJhr with the sufferers by that supposed outrage, we laid it ami comment at a more convenient season; rt.ocjfc fcjmii dm called for isamediats notice, wt should have bestowed or CCMQr tl'ft The fear of ariscorv strueuoti of ear tvnivp, Wlu fcTtr itln from speskixg prorapily.h, every cat, where prompt 1 We rjnrnuuiee the rh0l upliculy ap. prored the tuuli, amneous, and of spesaiog is reaaireo. the ve7 worst tendency. To Bay that a citizen, it however delinquent, ought so Lynched, is to eay that in particular cases, the Vsw.

Ilia owo atory waa that he aaw a large on fire, and a schooner near, which eemed to. be rendering assistance; and aa La had sot heard tbe report of a piracy upon the Susquehanna, and expressed no suspicion of piracy in the case which he mentioned, he mani festly entertained do apprekenaiom of danger.

To aee a ship on fire only ten miles distant, to another vessel renderiiag assistance, to appro dicates a reckless disregard to hnmso suffering, con8ie'n oim i indignation of all hamne n( philanthropic.

Shall the laws of JLynch be substituted here If the whole cannot them, they must certainly be beyond: tbe reach of a part and the whole does not attempt to reach them, from the impossibility of devising any standards for judging them. Humanity and inhumanity are relative terms, and general rules cannot be devised, for ascertaining where one ends and lhe other They must be leA to individual judgment, founded upon the circumstances of each Bat the Commercial Herald may ask, if ludividusls may judge, why may they not act 1 We answer that they may act negatively, but not positively by withholding confidence or but not by invading personal rights, If they do he latter, they violate laws ia eases which society cannot reach; for society can provide for personal security, though it cannot for individual humanity. Rights are perfect and imperfect first are those which society can enforce by general laws, because they can be actually defined; as Mion, te eouriviy at an times, to justice in Uflasee.
