Protection of Emizrants—Castle Garden—Cur rious Letters from the West—Political In- trigues—Prostitution on Board the Ships Petition for a New Law Against Misde~ meanor and Ticket Swindle—Bogus Agents of American Railroads in Europe, d&c., dic. ‘Numerous complaints against the treatment of passen- gers op board the steamers and sailing vessels from Liv- erpool, London, Havre, Antwerp, and even Hamburg and Bremen, induced the Board of Directors of the German Bevevolent Society of New York, composed of some of eur most wealthy citizens, to call a conference together of all the existing German societios throughout the United Btates. Their purposo cons/sts in publishing all the de- fects connected with the emigrant business, and to ob- tain, if possible, a new act from the present Congress a Washington. In consequence of this call Pennsylvania, Michigan Wisconsin, Maryland, Ohio, Minnesota and Missouri, hav» pont delegates. Several other Stes have sent many m teresting letters of excuse explaining their reason for no coming to New York. The conference met on Friday, October 1, at Pytha goras Hall, Canal street. Mr, Schumacher, Sr., of Baiti- more, was elected President; Mr. Jellinghans, of New York, Vice President; and Messrs. Fersenheim and De- reck, of New Jersey, Secretaries, After a short pre- inary meeting the members of the conference paid a visit t0 Castie Garden, whtch establishment they in- pected in ail its details, expressing their high satisfaction with that institution for the protection of emigrants, On Saturday morning, at haif-past ten o'clock, they reassembled at Pythagoras i, when seve- ral’ curious Jetiors, received from different States ef the Union, were read, at the beginning of the meeting. ‘New Orleans and Galveston excuse them: solves by stating that the yellow fever is raging there still with Aus vehemence thal it was utterly impossible to gather a meeting in order to elect delegates, but they pro- Mise to support New York in all their measures. Boston writes, the Hulfs Verein hopes that there will be some- Ching done more serious than before for the greater pro- tection of passengers on board the steamers and other weesele. Bt. Paul, Minnesota, does not send a delegate, Dut asks the favor tw be represented by a substitute of New York. St. Louis had elected one delegate who pro- mised to bo in New York on Ist October, but had not yet arrived to-day, Charleston gent in a very caustic letter. It says, though there were many emigrant protective laws fm existence, the stream of emigration will never turn towards such an unfortunate aud unhealthy country as South Carolina, They joined the laws to the letter, but ‘but the letter has arrived without those precious laws. Milwaukie preeents also some very curious excuses. It announces that they were obliged to dissolve their Associa thon for the Agsietance of Emigrants and the Poor at Large, Since it was no more permitved there to call free labor a right and slavery a wrong, that the greatest animosity divided the members into two parties, im consequence of which the democrats will not pay when the republicans ure in the majority, and the republicans will not, if the democrats should obtain the goverment. Under similar eircumetances, dissolution became unavoidable, but they Promise to re-organize at an early day, &e. + Aiter the hearing of these letters, the Conference re- Bolved to send copies of their deliberations to the absentees , 4m order to guide them in their future operations. The order of the day was the report of the Board of Directors of New York. Mr. JRLTINGHAUS rose and read a very elaborate memo- rial on behaif of the German Benevolent Society in Green- wich street, founded about seventy years ago, in New York. He said:—In this country of materialism, humani- tarian principles are gencraily looked at rather with great imdifference, nay indolence, especially in our great cities; but there are 80 many palpable facts which speak so im periovsly even to the most indolent heart that new efforts towards social improvements must not be released. The terrible incidents of latter days ou the high sea, the brutal treatment of passengers by Officers of vessels, the ticket swindle and bogus offices in several places, are in every- body's knowledge; they are of daily occurrence, and discou. Tage new settlers to embark for this great and tine country. Besides those vicissitudes ,secretagents, literary quacksand recently a German paper, the Allgemeine Answanterungs Zeitung, of Radolstact, aré calumuiating daily the United tates, for the purpose of diverting the stream of emigra- Uou from our shores towards South America, Brazil and other countries where the Europeans hitherto have never returned but with empty pockets and without a sbirt on their backs; whilst here, in this country, every laborer gets good wages and is able to make bis fortune.

The owners and captains of vessels have to gua rantee the safe delivery of luggage, aud remain respon Bible logs towards the pareengors. There are, concluded the reporter, some of our reso. Jutions, which you kindly will approve, or disapprove, or amend. The conference entered immediately into div cuesion on the first point of the proposal respecting the publication of a“ Guide to Emigrants.’ Mr. Lixvemax, of Cincinnati, objected to priee.

A farmer of Mecklenburg goes to Ame- rica and is swindled into a mountainous country, he who never caw a ull, and would be the best cultivator of prai ries. (Lively approbation.) After several other remarks from different speakers, the Conference: Resolved, To invite all German societies and other cor. ations to furnish the New York board of the German forety quarterly with euch information as might be use fui for the emigrants at their landing at the difterent Kast ern ports of the United States. Thir was adopted, and the Conference took up the Second point of the proporal, ¢oncerning the suppression Of all booking offices in Europe for the interior of the United States. Mr. JetiieHacs again rose and made some interesting statements. There are, he said, many individuals at Liverpool, London, Havre, Antwerp, and even’Bremen and ; who have the impudence’ to establish their of. faces and to take licenses for the sale of tickets, pretend. ing to be available for all parts of the United States, These scoundrels address the passengers with the words, “Tam or we are the employes of the government of the United States—pay to us your money and we will give you tickets aml money orders for New York.” The green: borns, captivated through so much impudence, pay. Oniy the other day several p 0 presntet thomeeives at the Greenwich offee with ol 8 of some Peter Punk at Havre, to cash them here; but, alas! investigation has greved the connivance of those thieves with some New ‘ork swindling concerns not far situated from the very feat of our petite. The Commissioners of i. fone time aware of such ecandaious transactions, sent Mr. Murray to farope with instructions to induce the foreign riments to cut off their mancuvres by abolishing booking system altogether; but he succeeded he! at Bremen and Hambu France, Belgiam, England, Tre feud rest still open to the cheaters of the ignorant people. Mr. Murray has published a strong yolume on bis travels, and assured the boards that a lively correspondence is go- ing on between the Department of State at Washington and the Confederation of Switzerland, of which several Cantons have not yet suppressed these pernicions booking offices. In many instances the passengers are paying $10, $12, $15 to $20 more for their tickets than they would be obiiged to pay on their landing in New York, But the aie of bogus tickets is only one side of tho question fometi mes @ greater evil is the recommendation aud forced transportation of the passengers after their ae sare ‘ouede — and houses, where they are stripy very bones, Rut what can be done against these harpies?

The Commissioners ought to send somebody at Quarantine on board the rp with instruction to ask the passengers themselves if they were well treated on the high seas. Mr. JeuunaHavs—We are certainly very glad to receive information and advice from any experienced gentleman, but our wiehes and desires ought to be more logically framed. Let us take that project for our guide which Mr. Deviin the other day has worked out by order of the Commissioners of Emigration. Messrs. Seward in th: Senate, and John Cochrane in the Louse, have promised all their efforts for the success of these new ship régula tions, They are entitled An act to amend an acto March 3, 1855,” and insist upon—1. Separation of th xexes, 2. A fine of $10 per dead passenger. 8. Compel shipowners and captains to become answerable for los luggage. That will do for the present. Let. ue only add some facts in order to get the captains thoroughly responsible, The United States, as much as any other country, have a right to look out that their immi- grants are arriving here in a healthy and moral state, and not with typhus, generally derived from uncleaniiness and want of air, nor half starved, Siciemenp KAAPMAL seconded the motion of petitioning to Congress, but would not like to bring out too many pointe. In other terms, they will never succeed if they ask too much of foreign powers and shipping houses at once. Mr. JELUNGHAUS persisted in completely reforming the shipping regulations; he gave terrible details of demo- ralization on the high seas. Daughters of respectable pa- rents are seduced and violated by captains and mates, Even from Castle Garden they fetch the girls back on board their ships to perpetrate their infamous conduct. Go to Ward's Island, and count there how many girls have become mothers during their These ofti- cers seduce and demoralize first, and sell their victims af- terwards to brothel house keepers. Many of the cap- tains and shipowners are no better than runners—nay, even worse. Mr. SCHUMACHER, President of the Conference, (with hautevr)—I protest against such comparison. Jvues Dri—Could you but pass an hour on board of certain ships, you would be horrified at the scenes which there are performed. In bright daylight, in the presence of fathers, mothers and jittle children, acts of a most lascivious and revolting nature are committed. Ever week, every day, we receive information of facts whirl you in Maryland do not dream of. The Pxesipest—Well, I have not been in the old coun- try since thirty years. SkvERAL Mesoiers—Let us vote. Messrs. Scnumicter and PratTe—We reserve our vote till Monday Give us time to consider such important matters a little longer. Dirrerest Voice—Yee, yes. Mr. FISixc, a native of Pennsylvania, begs leave to re- turn to Philadelphia, and to confer his voting power on his colieagues. Adopted. The Conference adjourned till tomorrow (Monday) Morning, at 10 o'clock, To-day they are inspecting some vessels in the harbor. Our Buenos Ayres Correspondence. Buenos Avrms, July 28, 1858, The New Export Duties in the Argentine Confederation— Relative Population and Resources of Buenos Ayres and the other Thirteen States— Evidences of Prosperity—Grand Baill in the City—Independence Day—Commercial News, c., be, In my last I gave your readers a slight description of the manner in which the Americans celebrated the Fourth of July in thie city, Sinco then several matters of im- portance have transpired, one of the principal of which is the differential duties placed upon all articles ex” ported from the Confederation (if experted by way of this portor of any other foreign port). At present you, of course, understand and know that this provinee is act- ing in a manner and with a government entirely indepen- dent from the other thirteen provinces which now consti tute the Argentine confederation or republic. The effect ofthe duties thas imposed will naturally be to cause many exporters of produce to send their produce to Rosa- rio, in the province of Santa Fe, one of the provinces of the present Confederation, thus saving the payment of said duty. New this duty, thas imposed and decreed by the Gene- ral Congress at Parana, will certainly at firet somewhat injure the commercial interests of this city. But, on the other hand, the province of Buenos Ayres contains about foor hundred thousand inhabitants—all the other pro vinces together about eight hundred thousand ; the city ‘of Buenos Ayres alone contains about one hundred an thirty thousand inbabitants, ali good consumers—th great market still remains for the manufactured England, the silks, toilet articles and gewgaws of France, a8 Well as for the solids and necessaries which come from the United States, such as flour, lumber, Besides, this port is the grand receptacle for the food, tum- aiment, &., to be furnished to the three hundred thousand souls in this province, but without or outside of the limite of this city ne consuiners. But r my defence (if nd this province) be somewhat feeble when I speak of its pro- be justly stated that its produce in hair, bones, grease, &e., amount to about one-third in valee of all the rest of the provinces put together. Thus you Ree the (at present) confederated provinces are one-third of the egeregate valve of all products abead of us. Now I will teh you how we make up for that one-third, Ta the first place, this port has so long been established that in sum mer excellent reads from each and every province of the Confederation facilitate the transportation of products of ali kinds tw this city; secondly, thie port has been within five years so improw that, Lotwithetanding its natural disadvantages, it is today the second best port in all South America, if we count Rio Ja- neiro the best and sefest. Furthermore, many of the wealthiest capitaliets of the country, ax well as foreigners, are established and resido here wilh thelr families, and they surely will use all their influence, moral and argumentative, as well ax “material and financial,” for the ai vencement of this port; and last, but by no means least esent government is so , 80 truly a government of cl ‘ontinue to advance with the same unprecedented rapidity which has inarked ite progress for the past five years. But this late law of duties did not paes the late sexxion of the Congress of the confederated provinces without strong opposition. Several aged Sena- tore—nervour from lovg years of service in the Geld as well as the Senate of their country—voted against the im- ay of such duties, among whom prominently appeared ir. Gutierrez, Senator from the province of Tucuman.

He was Goy. Price, of New Jersey. After expressing his highest approval of the mode they had adopted to express their sentiments and point out the man whom they would desire to represent thei in the council of the nation, he spoke of General Walbridge as their selection in the most flattering terms, and wound up with an eloquent appeal in his bebalf. There were three enthusiastic cheers given at the con- clusion of the speech, and they were succeeded by cries for Walbridge, General Walbridge announced, however, that be was waiting for the arrival of a deputaton from the Fifth ward before he would ad- dress them, stating, at the same time, that he folt de- dirous of affording all his friends an opportunity of hearing him together.

It seems that the difficulty has originated in the refusal of the Board of Supervisors to allow the Commissioners of Record the $300,000 granted to them by the State Legisia- ‘ture in the tax levy for 1869. The Supervisors struck out $250,000 from the appropriation, aud were willing to grant thera only $50,000 with which to perform their duties. To this fearful “taking oif’ the Cominiesioners of Record decidedly object, and they have instituted legal measures to get the full appropriation made by the Legislature. An injunction has served upon Supervisors re- straining them from delivering the tax books into the hands of the Receiver of Taxes; consequently that official is nimble to receive the moneys protiered to him by the a ee rd ws the books oom eae his 4 sen as of course, will be that the matter will be postponed until the day of judgment at least.
