In recent numbers or our pap? r we hare laid before the public ioine lnteretlna nn iminlprntion, which doubtless have informed our readers of the quality and numoer of emi grants who have arrived at this port during the the lat ten or twelve years, as also their na tionalities and destinations. Thf se unprovided lor hordes must have work to ao and land to cultivate, and here they find both readily available in our Southern and Western States. They hear of this, and learn the way across the water. HOW THE MIQRAKTg EMBARK. The couraf? displayed, and uecessarily pos sensed, by these teeming multitudes of adven turers, H a rather sienal, yet apreeable, contrast with the dispoMions of many who never leave their land ol na'ivify, but remain domesticated within the mural conttne of their towns. Taking a retiospectol our bj gone times, and Teviewme our experiences, when we tlrst quitted the Old Country, aim crossed that treacherous stormy Irish Channel, or the reraarktblv capri cious German Ocean, when storms and eales had sprung up, aud declared the nimesty of Him w bo holds them iu Ills baud, what faith we weie coerced to exercise. The? encounter their first trying ordeal, their Initiatory irrilunt in the robberies committed on them in tbeir embarkutou, and in the transit of their baffKaae and bedoin-i by the yacht that conveys them to the vessel's side. Some of Ihera never see their property from the time it is removed troin trci- couniy towns till they reach Castle Garden, and then even they are not allowed to get at tkeir boxes on the same day they land, and olien not for a whole week, frequently their boxes are lelt behind, and never beard oi more. Many never receive com pensation for these losses ousiulued. Change of cloth. nsr on the voyage, therefore, is a compara tive rarity. The dress they wear on the yacht Is the same in which ihey ore removed by the baree in the river. They are crowded by hun dreds, and irequently over a thousand in but one eh p, and they rach her sides in the Mer sey, like so many head ot oxen deported for slaughter. HOW THEY ABB TREATED ON B0ABD SHIP. To term the treatment emigrant.-, in the ma jority ol cases, receive on board ship, "brutal," would be usiug but a mild iern. Acts the most shocking ana degrading to humanity are too frequently indulged in at the expense of the supersiitious and deluded women. No master or owner of a vessel is allo wed to take on board a ereater number ol passengers than in propor tion ot one to every two tons ol such ship, not Including children under the ago of one year in the computation, and computing the children over one and under eight years of are as pas senger; yet, notwithstanding, vessels frequently anive at this port carrying 1000, 12 10, and 1250 passeneers. nearly double the established legal ized proportion. They are stowed away like slaves Irom the Coast of Airica, while the la says, ,-On the ma n and poop decks, and in the deck houses, cne raenger lor each sixteen clear superficial leet ol deck ' is to be allowed. It is a notorious lact that the cabins are crowded with berths, running some three, lour, and bve tiers, and tbev are not so constructed as to con duce to proDriety, while on this point the law is most explicit. At section 2 ot the act it is written, "That no such vessel shall have more than two tiers of benhs, and the in terval between the lowest part thereof and the dock or platform beneath, shall not be Ie6s than nine inches; and the berths sha'1 be well constructed, parallel with the sides of the Tesstl, and separated irm each other by parti tions, as benhs ordinarily are separated, and Bbiill bo at least six teet in length and two feet in width, and each birth shall be occupied by bo more than one passenger." Thev suffer, too, irora an insufficient ventilation and want ol water. Cleanliness among passengers on board ot a crowded emigrant ship, a habit tending to the preservation and promotion of health, U moft seriously, criminally neglected. Thir bodies are allowed to remain in dirt aud Bit lithe entire voyaec. The apartments they occupy are in a most unhealthy state, while the convenience of water closets is a scarce commodity. No dis infectant, such as chloride of lime, is used, and thus it is that cholera is bred and nurtured on board, the results being no manifested in our land. The tmigrants are excluded from the cabooses or cooking ranges, and thus they are denied the possibility ot furnishing themselves with proper and adequate pabulum. It they j, comphtin they are marked, and tn ated all the worse next day. They are sometimes beaten by the crew, and floeged by and throueh the insti- ! gallon of the captain. They have no redress usiuuBi Miiiu ijruuuj. xuey enuure it an tne passace thrtueb. but wh-n thev land thpir ot.. ienniitpd Inrma nriiflnlm lnmllu t'ho ill tKantmont they have received. VICE VS. V1RTTJB AND CnASTITT is still the rage on board the majority of the emigrant ships. This demon of woe ravished many a family, and ruined so many young, unsuspecting girls, that it became necessary to pass an act amending an act then already existing, entitled "An act to regulate the car riage ot passengers in steamships and other vessels," which was approved ou the 3d of ' Marco 1855, lor the beiter protection of female passengers, and tor other purposes. But it is very much to be douoted li this giuantio evil ; this evil above all other evils has been abated, ' we dou't bay cured. We do not believe it can be i eured under the present mismanagement of those who have to see to and protect the inte rests of the numerous innocent young women that quit their mendicant homes to seek a living in this prosperous and free country. The very master, officers, and seamen who are . expecUd to see that certain immoral deeds are lett undone, are the guilty parties themselves in mostlnstancescriuiinaliv.guiltv of sensualism in its worst lorms. The very people employed on the ship to cuide her course acrnss the wide Atlantic are the very individuals who, duriug ihe voyage f such fhip or vessel, under a verbal, or written it may be, promise of marriage, or by threats, or by the exercise of their authority, or by solicitation, or by the making of gifts or present, seduce and have illicit connection with the female passengers. Women are weak creatures, and it is an inglorious triumph tor the sed icer, be be who he may, to take advan tage of bis posit'on on a ship, whether as cap tain, mate, or cook or Lssuer, to barter with a hungry joung woman her Virginity against the mistratjie iuuk of salt beet or pork and a few biscuits.' It has been said that sensual indul- gence Is often gratiaed lor the pililul considear 1 Hon of a meal in the evening. , 5 The parts of the ship assigned to the accom modation of emigrant passengers should be I eacred from the sensual trespasses of (he crew 1 and ollicers of the ship; but such, however, is not the ease, for the berths of emigrants are I requently visited by the officers, and stewards, t and mat ei ot the ma)orlt.y of the vessels tradintr in emigrants. One or tne many laws whicn is neglected to be carried out on board such ves sels is coctaini d in the third section of the act above quoted: "That it shall be the duty of the master or coromanuwr oi -every ship or 'vessel bringing emigrant passengers to the United States, to post a written or printed notice, in the English, French, and German lan&ruaces. contaiuina the provisions ot the second section of the act, in a conspicuous place tin the Iowa lie, and in th- several parts of the said shiD or vessel assigned to emigrant passen eers. and to keen the same so oosted during the vojapre, and upon neglect o to do he shall be ueeujea guuty oi a jm&uemeaDor, anu on cou THE DAILY victlon thereof shall be punished bv a fine not exceeding $600." EDUCTIONS AND RAPES. This department of our tubject Is of iuch a hHhly dsgusting character that we would rather nav. elralned from remarking thereon, but that e ha our minis Impressed with a sense ol our duty Sthe public and to the society at largo, which obi.t Mion must be performed, fc-very person who has ad the reports of courts has met with horrible ai, alpii"tlng details of what are commonly called . eductions, but the crime ot seduction is airgrav Td to the higher crime, lhatofrape, Len such i "ommitted on board a vessel upon defenseles anu unprotected joung females. H is the more magnified when deeds of the kind are perpetrated by thoi-e who are set forth as the auardians and sponsors of the "innocents" thus placed at the mercy ot their harsh passions. Whether this crime be viewed in the minimum or maximum, it is fata ciently levoltmg and odioua to disgust us. It is an mcontestible lact that such deeds of dnrknci-s have sent many a promising and good girl to the walks oi the infamous and abandoned, to the teachings of the adult In concupiscnce, tothe house of ill lame; and these owe their fall to thevontaraination received on board the emiursut ship, while others there aud then be come total wrecks. Infamy rnd s'.iain have set on high their heads, and have been lauden and honored by the already matured dupes to all manner ot abominations on board theie ves sels on their "dark and middlo passages."' Thus are the ard of the obstetric department of tha "Ward's Island Hospital'1 crowded with the dunuhters of seduction, and are hourly echoing with lamentations and 6iirhs. Ol the 333 worn- n who irave birth to 338 chil dren durii.g the year 186s, more than 280 were bastards, aud 22 weie still-born. There were five twin cases, with 53 admitted after delivery in the city and on shipboard, all of whom, it is aid, were illegitimate sons ond daughters. HOW THE EMIGRANTS ARE STARVED AND FAMISHED. This tale of horror, enough to sicken und dis- guhi me mosi onnurate neart, may be read in the "li- port of the Complaints, Proceedings, and Drclsloiis of the United Slates Commissioner ii tl e('ae of the Vittafranca," a passenger ship which traded here last veat. As we propose to use this for on illustration of the cruelties which the emigrants are made to endure on their pas sage out, it will be advisable to defer our re marks at this stage of our expose, for the denun ciation of such treatment, or rather ill-treatment, in a subsequent pariigrnpb. of this article. HOW THEY ABE BODBKD BEFORE THEV LAND. When summoned to their occasional sparse meals, their berths remaining unlocked, Jack Tar, or the steward, or some of Hie ship's olli cers meun enough tor the din y work, embrnee the favoruble opportunity ot entering the cabins and making a geneial search. This has never pioved fruitless. Invariably rich success has Deen the result attendant on tlie open depre dations, and particularly rich has this robbery been among tbe G'ermau passeDuers, they being the more afflumt. tsomo ot these (iermans brmg as much as $5000. $10,001, $15,000, and $20,000 in gold with them, which is packed in belts, and sometimes, tot always, wore as a zone around the waist. Th s is a strong temp tation to the class 01 men who man these emi grant passencrer ships, let alone their systematic proclivities, to rob virtue as well at raonev. Anoiher way in which emicrants are roboed be lore they arrive is in the purcbae of bad bills. We know an instance where an Englishman houebt a bill in Liveinool on a bank in New York, and on arrival here discovered that no such house was in existence. This is not an iso lated case, but one which could be multiplied a hundred and seven fold. COMPLAINT OF THE PASSENGERS. 1. That on embarkation on the Viliafranaa at London, a certain sum of money was demanded lroni them lor their boxes, called "dock dues," although the terms ot the coutract stated that "all Government dues before einbarkn..u.n ani head money, if any, at the place of laminx?. shull be paid by the owners;" and that no boxes or baggage, ot any descriotion wpre tnknn nn board belore such demands wero paid. 2. That although the pa?engers were ordered to bo on board ou the 6lh 01 July, no provisions 01 any kind were served out to them till the 8'.h; and that the meat, and Bait, and vinecar were not served out till the 10th. 3. That the provisions viere not given out accoroing to the weight or quantity specified on the coutract tickets, but according co the fancy ot the chip's carpenter aud the sailors who asshtcd hni; that many passengers received but nve small biscuits and tour potatoes to last a whole week; that the provisions tea and meat were bo Dad thai tucv nad to be thrown awav; that the quantity of water was very far short of tnai specinea on rue contract ticucts; and that as the hot weather throughout the passage ren dered water very necessary, some 01 the temules and children were constantly, but iu vain. crjing out lor it; that U. Bchwarz. one of the passengers, made a complaint to tlio caotain about the water, who replied that by he wouin nang mm Detore ne got to New lork. 4. That in conssequence of the great number of passengers many ot them were obliged to sleep on the floor between decks, or upon the decks, lor seven or eight days alter leaviug London, and that the berths contained three instead ot two passengers each. 0. That ihe cooking arrangements were wholly inadequate, and that the captain did not have coal enoueh supplied for cooking purposes; that it was made necessary tor the ppsseugers to cook breakiast at 10 A. M., and wait tor dinner till 4 P. M. of the same day. 6. That notwithstanding that one of the laws of the United states provides that a certain printed notice relative to the seduction of females by the ship's company be put up in the ditierent languaees on the ship upon the tirst day of tbe voyage, and remain posted there throughout the eutire parage, ic was not until the luth day that the said notice was put up lor the inspection ot the passengers. 7. That during the whole pas-ace the general treatment ot the passengers by tbe entire ship's company, from the captain to the lowest ot the sailors, was harsh and tyrannical. 8- That the mate and captain struck pas sengers at various times without cause, and that the crew threw buckets of water on them daily lor ."port, while they were waiting tor their supplies on deck when it was being cleaned. The above Is the substance ot the complaint, which lecited various acts ot alleged cruelty on the part ot the captain. It was signed by over 100 passengers. THE LAW ON THE CASB. The following is the section of the law of the United tiuttes under which emigrants may obtain redress lor the complaints above stated: Ail vessels employed as atoresaid shall have on board, lor tbe use of such passengers, at the time ot leaving the inst port whence such vessel shall sail, well secured under deck, for each pacseuger, at least 20 pounds of good navy bread, 15 pounds of tice, 15 pounds of oatmeal, 11) pounds 01 wneat uuui, ia puuuus ui peas aua Deans, m pounas 01 poiaioe, 1 pint 01 vinegar, 60 Gallons of fresh water, 10 pounds of salted pork, and 10 pounds of salt beef, tree of bone, all to be of good quality; but at places where either rice, oatmeal, wheat flour, or reas and beans cannot be procured of good quality, and on reasonable terms, the quantity of either or any oi the other of the last-named articles may be increased and Bubatituted therefor; and in case potatoes cannot be procured on reasonable terms, one pound ot either ot said articles may be substi tuted in lieu of live pounds of potatoes. And the captains of such vessel shall deliver to exch passenger at least one-tenth part of the aloiesaid provisions weekly, commencing on the day of sailing, and at least three quarts of water daily; and it the passengers on board of any such vessel, in which the provisions and water herein required shall not have been provided as aforesaid, shall, at any time, be put on short allowance during any voyage, the roaster or ownr of said vessel shall pay to each and every passenger who shall have been put on short allowance the sura of three dollars for each and every day they may have been put on Bhort allowance, to be recovered In the Circuit or District Court of the United btates, And it ahull be tue duty of the captain EVENING TELEGRAl'lt! PfflLAD or master of every such hlp c vesrel to cause th food and provisions of all the passengers to be well and properly cooked daily, and to be served out and distributed to them at regular and stated hours, by messes, or in such other manner as shall be deemed best and most conducive to the health and comfort of such passengers, oi which hours and manner of dis tribution due and sufficient notice shall be given. If the captain or master ot any such ship or vessel shall wilfully tail to furnish and distribute such provisions, cooked as tore?aid, he shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and, upon conviction thereof hp tor an rtirmiit or District Court of the United States, shall be bned not more than one thousand dollars, and shall be imprisoned tor a term not exceeding oDe year, provmea mat tne ertorcement of this penalty shall not aflect the civil responsibility of the captain or master, and owners to such passengers as may have Battered from said default. HOW THEY ABE REGISTERED ON LANDING. As the emigrant leaves the barge and places his foot on tei-ra Jirma, ho is met by Dr. Cam merer, who is acquainted with several lan guages, and addresses the following interroga tions : Have you a lamilyf How many chil drenT Where aie vour relations? and soon; taking a sharp, sklliul look at the emigrant, he sees at a glance if there be any defect, constitu tionally, physically, organically, or if pregnant or other cause of bodily distemper or disoae; all theso are noted in his book with the expertness and riipidity of a phonographic amanuensis. J hey then pas from tbe coctor into the rotunda lor reisuation, the Irish on the one sile aud the Germans on the other. The questions tneu put tire : What is your name? What county are jou Jrotn. or a native ol ? Where are you gomir, i.e., what Slate Is your destination ? Have you a family ? Have you been in America belore? Ibcn they again tin Jereo anothor ex amination by a booker of the railroad depart ment, w bo givestbem tlieirpasscs to the railroad cilice clerko for the transit tickets to the place they desire to go. DOW THEY COMMENCE LIFE AFRHSD. Of all the departments in Castle Garden, the most creditable one is the Kraployment Office. Families go there dally, and. tree of all exnense. secure the services of lady's maid, chamber maid, cook, laundress, farmer, aud all sorts of workmen, ana females, too, able to do all neccs saiy tielrt and housework. The emigrant is pro vided with employment, frta oi charge to him or her, and is reentered, so that wages may be recovered in case of the employer's defalcation in this respect. The emigrant thus starts afresh on the iouri,ey of life; and, though quite "green" on landine, soon becomes acquainted with American society, the manners, customs, and babies of the people. The honest, industrious emigrant soon advances, and by perseverance, energy, aud parsimony, in a few years, lays by a comparative fortune. He then bun ailord to smile at the cruelties he endured on board the em'giant ship on his passage out to the "new country."' HOW THEY LIVE AND SLHBP AT CASTLE GARDEN. For the most part, those who remain in the Garden are young Irish women, who have left their homes on speculation. The adventure they have taken may or may not be worth their while. They are, too, very indigent in circum stances, seldom with more than one suit of clothes, and tharon their back, with perhaps a shillinu English silver, but more oiten altogether penniless. These are piovlrted with iust as much bread and milk as will "keep body and soul together;" ana tkus they live day by day, nominally existing, until a ladv applios tor a girl, and the unlucky ones go off in this way, day by day. They have hard and trying times ol it at Castle Garden. J B The way they sleep is a positive disgrace to the civilization of the aire. Without bed or bedding, and no covenngof any kind whatever, they lie dow n on the boards or naked benches, they themselves almost as bare, and thev hear and see what no young person should. Men in celibacy, and married lolk, and virgins lie down together in full view of each other, and alike breathe the morbid atmosphere which pervades the interior of Castle Garden. The General Agent and Superintendent must be aware or the thefts committed, ol the seductions practised, and of the improprieties indulged; tor not a week paees but that he, in his orticlal capacity as a notary public, takes the depositions of potties complaining on the above grounds of grievance, Imposition, aud iniury. In no department of the institution is plun dering not carried on in the minor degree, aud in some, in the aiagnitude and strength of the most daring unblushing impudence. THE QUESTIONS PUT TO THE EMIGRANTS. It is remarkable how very innocent and mild the young Irish woman's character i. Bhe seems to have never loll the family hearth all her days. She lands at Castle Garden, and, in her purity, thinks all things pure, and there are, in the Garden, fellows who take advantage of this simplicity, and put highly improper ques tions to certain of the emigrant girls, who un consciously and unsuspectingly answer them. In many instances they unwittingly expose some discrepancy in. their system, bome lailuie in health, or some temporary organic eccentricity which physically troubles them. These intra sue, bold, and Impudent queries arc carried irequently to greater lengths, and what was but incipient impiopnety is transformed to auda cious Intlmucy. HOW THB BOOKS ARB KEPT, ETC. There are three Registry Books; formerly on'y two were used, but since the months of April and May it was deemed expedient to open another book, on account of the large How of immigration, and the obvious neoessHy of rmss- inn 41 n ! . ....... . 1. .. , . ' in wc uuiiiuuia iuiuuku as Bpecuny as possi ble, to make place lo the other ship's pasaen gers. These books contain little information beoynd the name and the country of each emi grant that lands. The destinations registered are not to be depended on. Other books are kept, of minor importance, but the principal book are under the keeping of Dr. Cam merer and they are very creditably and ably adlusted,' as also are his accounts punctually made up, with systematic precision and nicety, aud almost infallible correctness. Those kept up-stairs by the Treasurer may bear the same mention as the Doctor's. The shipping book and some others are under the keeping of Dr. Smith. HOW THB EMIGRANTS ARE SUPPLIED WITH PRO VISIONS. A grocery or provision establishment is kept in the Gaiden, and is a very lair and creditably managed department. Sales ot provisions are maae to those emierantfl who may have money to purchai-e, and those who have not are tur cished with cards by the Floor Superintendent which are a voucher for such supply, but their boxes are mortgaged aud retained till the means are provided by some friend or relative to liqui date the cost or supplies. The articles kept in this store are of a superior quality and meet ready sale. WHERE THEY GET THEIR RAILROAD TICKETS. After having changed tieir gold, they pass on ta the railroad otlicc, and purchase tbeir tickets. It is against this department that Mr. Cumming, the United States Superintendent, has taken action for the robberies alleged to have been committed by a certain firm to the extent of some 4()00 or $5000, within a given space ot tune; which it is alleged has been done bv de grees, until U has accumulated to this large sum. Full accounts of this transaction have appeared in wme of the papers of this city; it is therefore unnecessary to expatiate on it. HOW THE BAGGAGE IS TRANSFERRED. The baggape rootn extends the entire east semicircle of the Iiattery, and it is arranged with shelves, all numbered, and can accommo date more than than 311,000 boxes. There is an express office attached to the Garden, by which the emigrant may transport or transfer their boxes, after paying for the extra weight on each and the fee ot ten cents, which is also demanded. This department has Its shortcomings, as have the others at Castle Garden, but they are oi a trifling nature, and will mend by experience and in time. A7. Y. Tribune. Mons.
