On the left are tiie women and frirla. spinning wool, or the fiuo llax ot the country. You are cordially received, and the circle opens to admit yon to the warmest place by the roaring fire.

At length some jovial monntaiueer, whone white liairs hav uot rendered him oblivion of his vouth, turns suddenly round, elapa bis hands with a merry hop! and strikes, ap tne national air. In a moment half-a-doren youug fellows are describing the emicircle according to which the move-men to of the dance, are to be executed; every other man turns his back to the lire, and eonstitntea himself a judge, bilence is established, and the old meu, especially, look gravely on, inexorable to any newfangled innovation or ill-executed step. Watch that young fellow whofO dancing is voted -perfect his tigure straightened, his shoulders well down, bin head slightly lowed, his Arms hanging with careful cure-leewness, serious expression showing that he is sensible of the solemn remxiiioi-bihty upon him Hie girls, meanwhile, are pnpjHXicd to remain unmoved, but noon the chairs begin to creak, and. as if of their own accord, rum slightly fiom the hvartii, and toward the center of tlie room.

More and more active prows the dancer, more and more springy becomes the step, until at last the song stops, and it is time fur the final trial of fkill. 1 wo sticks are crosHcl at right anxles, and the object of the dancer is to continue a series of marvelous evolutions from one angle to the other for so long a time as to tire out the musician who performs, the accompaniment. If he succeed, with a bound lie seizes the sticks, and triumph is complete. A Basque proverb says. A gtMnl iumper may otteu be lound under a bad cloak," meaning that a ioor diess may cover a noble heart.

llie temiRrary is opened gTatis to all. Many of the pastorals are of a acred character, and are drawn from the Bible or the lives ot saints; others turn upou the struggle betweeu the crescent and the cross, or upon the death of Koland. The dresses needed for thse representations cost nothing: they are obtained bv ransacking the chests of every chateau or bourgeois boone iu the neighborhood, the owner being bound by custom to leud tor the pur-Pose whatever he may chance to possess of beautitul or antique; should he refuse, meaus would doubtless be fouud of making him smart for hi churlislmess. Under these circumstances dramatic accuracy of eostmue is not to be expected but the suvagerv of the Mussulman irinces is duly suggested bv their blood-red garment their of cylindrical shape, adorned with plumes and Uttle looking-glasses, aud their large, clumsy boots, whereas a Christian King rejoices in a crown, two watches, small boots aud glove. 2ot many years ago.

another, aud more questionable kind of pastoral now dirouraged by the 1'olice was ia, ogue. if a matrimonial scandal shocked a village, instead of being treated to the "rough music," common stiiliusome parts of ioiKlaiid. tho otlendiug husband or wife was caricatured upon the stage. A poet was sent for (and every Basque is more or less of rhymester) to whom every attainable detail was related, aud whose business it then was to compose a kind of sarcastic-drama for the occasion, and as the identity of the deader was made clear by tbe actor who personated him mimicking, as exactly as he could, his dresa, voice and manner, the unlucky spouse who bad drawn upon himseU or berself this stinging punishment, might wtL vow amendment tor the future. Women aud girl do not, as a rule, take part iu the acting- of these pastorals, though private houses they also sometimes dance nmtchico but they aru by no means bo-lund their husbands aud brothers in energy Jne health.

They take their full share in tho labors of tho field, and it is a saying noog the fcpanxsh Basque that the country never better cultivated than when, all tho neu being gone to the wars, it is left to the sole management of tho women. Their strength being thus developed, their children eotne into the world with tho greatest ease, and more than one bnby lias passed its ant day of lite in the shade of tho tree be-Beata which it nrst saw the light, while its jnethex resumed her work.

Hailrnd Rural in the Indian Territory. From tht Boston Advertiser. Washington, Wednesday, May 25, 1970. About a week ago four railroad companies vjz-, the Poutbern Branch Union Pacific. Kansas and Neosho Valley, Lawrence aud Fort Gibson, aud Atlantic and Pacific appeared before Secretary Cox, by Caleb Ccsiiisg and other counsel, to argue that they had the right to extend their lines through the Indian Territory.

The Secretary Las made a careful examination of the argument and of the law and treaties bearicff on the subject, and submitted bis conclusions to the President, by whom tbev have been fully and formally approved. It Is decided that neither of these four roads has yet gained the right to enter the territory with its track, and the Secretary reeouiuieuds the appointment of the Superintendents of the Southern and Central Indian Superin-tendencies as a commission to determine which of said four railroad companies shall first fully comply with the laws bearing on tbe matter, and report to the Interior Department when this fulfillment shall bave taken place. Tbe President adopted this recommendation and will at once Issue an order declaring that no railroad company shall be permitted to enter the Indian territory for the purpose of gradmjr or constructing a railroad until this report has been made to tbe Secretary and by him approved. Gen. Cox also declares himself In favor of keeping the territory as free as possible from tbe intrusion of white settlers under any form, and earnestly advises again' allowiug the building of a trunk road through It from north to south with a branch from Fort Gibson to Fort Smith and a double line from East to West, nieetiug iu the valley of the Canadian River.

At Koine unusual quiet reigns, and nothing- baa reached us from tbe Council ebaee the publication four days ago of tbe intelligence that the second chapter of the definition of the infallibility ot tbe Pope had been formally presented fur discussion.

The TewtiA CaUolica. which should know as much as any organ of the Roman authority what will probably be done, assures us that this month of May will hardly close without action being taken, or, lo any case, that it is able to assert with potttivencst. that tbe day of the Apostles Peter and Paul, near tbe end of June, will not paes without this new dogma of tbe Vatican tteing added to the faith of Rome by an authoritative decision of the Council. Mf.MOHABI-E AKNTVERSART. Within a few days has come round the anniversary of an event among tbe most memorable in modern Italian history.

On the 27th of April It was for the first time positively known that the controversy which had so long been going ou between Austria and Piedmont could have no other Isshe than that of a sanguinary war. The haughty ultimatum which the Government of the Austrian Kmptre had fsent to the Italian State, left no choice to tbe latter but humiliation or a straggle wilh unequal forces. Austria bad already more than two hundred thousand soldiers in her Italian Provinces, and con Id double the number within a few days while Piedmont oould not muster more than one hundred thousand troops of all arms. The sympathies of liberal Europe were with the heroic little State which had labored so long to Inspire the Italian people with tho apint of Independence and union, and now I left almost alone to accept the chances of the unequal contest. Few in Europe then believed In tbe existence of the secret treaty which It bad been reported the Count DE Cavooa had negotiated with the Emperor of France.

I well remember the emotion excited here in Florence when intelligence of the Austrian threat arrived, and the constematioa which filled every mind at the thought that Italy was once more to be overrun with foreign soldier. But before night on almost the last day of April, news came that a division of tbe Freceb army, of not less than ono hundred thousand troops, was already on tho march toward the Italian frontier. Hope now added to the feeling of patriotism which animated every true Italian heart. I saw tears of Joy in the eyes of some, as fiieuds met and pressed each other's hands in the street. Oa the evening of the 27th, the Grand Duke I.EOPOLD.

with his family, left the Pltti Palace to return to Austria, soon to be followed by tbe Sovereigns of Parma and Modena. Italy was not to be left to meet alone her arrogant foe, and tbe Emperor of France became the hero of the hour. When Locis Napoleon entered the City of Genoa to put himself at the head of the French army, crowds were almost ready to throw themselves under his horse's feet. The enthusiasm was genuine, for the Emperor was indeed figuring in the character of the savior of Italy. He addressed noble words to tbe people of this country, and told them that they must make sacrifices If they wished to become citizens of a great State.

The events which succeeded In the next twelve months are well known to all who have followed the course of the Italian uprising. It was a period of memorable-vicissitudes, and whatever good has been obtained in political and civil reform is no doubt mostly owing to the two great successes In arms by France and Prussia over the late, and It is to be hoped last, foreign oppressor of Italy. I cannot help referring to this anniversary of tho first great act, for I bad watched with interest the events which preceded and brought It on, and bave been a near witness of nearly all that has followed while I confess that no political connected with the history of my own country, have ever more profoundly moved my sympathies. Tbe temptation' is great to dwell upon a subject fruitful In interesting details, but only to be elucidated an extended narrative and not In the narrow limits of a letter. The Italians have not now taken notice by any formal ceremonies of these dates, associated with a period of mingled hopes and anxieties but as a great part of the actors are still liviug, recollections have been freshly awakened in many mluds, and the sense of responsibility and.

impression of patriotic duty deepened. Hr.VOLrTfONAfTT "DrSORDEES. I have not laid much stress upon the attempts at revolution lately made in Italy, because tbey have not had any other character than that of local disturbances, giving the Government only a temporary annoyance, without any chance of success. There are a good many demagogues, both male and female. In the Democratic Party In Italy, with no higher hopes or purer to Inspire their efforts than that of making their own fortunes by turning the machine of Government upside down.

Slgnor Maxzini and his friends "have hardly the power now of making their cause, respectable, and such demonstrations as they make are almost criminal, insomuch as they tend to encourage the hopes of reactionists and those ready to use all means by which the old order of things may be restored. The medium course which Italy is now pursuing. Is no doubt the true path. There is too much nsk of losing the good already gained, by rushing with too much haste to touch the goal of tbe Republic, the end for which so many honest men in Europe are aspiring and striving. THE ASSASSINATION OV GEN.

ESCOFFTEB. The trial of Cattakeo, the assassin cf Gen. EacorriEB, the late Prefect of HaVenna, is closed, and the verdict of homicide, without extenuating was rendered by the Jury. The murderer has 'been sentenced to twenty years of bard labor In the public prison. Tbe de feuae tried to prove a slap in tbe lace received by Cattaxeo, a plea which seems to be taking the old one of insanity, to save the offender from the penalty of ais crime.

IBB TRAGEDY IN GREECE. The affair with the Greek brigands, and the sacrifice of one connected with the Italian Legation at Athens, have called the attention once more of this Government to the condition of public security in tbe southern province. In Calabria, and In the Island of Sicily, eases of brigand aggressions are still reported, and a complete extirpation of the evil without changing tbe race of inhabitants seems next to impossible. There Is a class whose natural tnstlnets lead them to take to the road. There are man IWbo have la their veins the blood of a brigand ancestry, and the territory waicn wey xnnaon would-be oteiiun by them the moment th vigi lance of authority was withdrawn.

Tbey are the successors of tbe gloomy Barons of old. aad are to the country as great a scourge. MOVEatESTS OT BOTAXTT.

Atatesi Islam Brislaw. To the Editor of tic Xem- York Ttma-r In your paper, yesterday, you felicitated your readers on the prospect of a bridge from Ellis Island to Statea Island. Are you not a little premature in your-congratulations What right ha New-York to authorise the construction of a railroad bridge la another State The proposed bridge, if ever made, will pass over Now-Jersey soil, exeept that small portion of the route consisting of half tbe ois-tanee covered by water between Staten Island and New-Jersey. New-York has police jurisdiction the over waters of New-York Bay, up to low-water mark ou tbe Jerwy shore. Bat the property in the soil covered with water wet of the main channel of the llndson belonn to Kawjoner.

In the treaty or between New-York ad New-Jersey, New-York only claims police jurisdiction over, uot property in, Ellis Ialaud. The proposed bridae would prove a vexation impediment to the commerce wrrtch now flow through the hall von KulL, New-York aad New-Englaud obtain a large portion of their coal supply at Elizobethport, and fleets of vessels engaged in tbe eoasung trade navigate the Kill von Kull. It may be well doubted whether tho consent of New-Jersey would be given to such a structure, and without that consent the charter is but waste paper. B. J.

B. AMDks, WMiuesday, May 23. 1S70. One Cent Fm-iac Tirketa mw Cash. To tht EifUttr of the Hew- York Times It seems to me that the Union Ferry Company have gained the advantage by far over onr usually shrewd Mayor, A.

Oaket Hall, in the matter of tbe Brooklyn Ferry lease. Hitherto they bave paid 160,000 a year into the City treasury, and have sold tickets sixteen for twenty-five cents, or about a cent and a half apiece, and thus for that sum a person could cross and re-cross as often and at any hour be chose. Under the proposed new lease the Company are to charge one cent from 6 to T3 A. and not being required to sen tickets atfa reduced rate, can and will do away with tickets sltogetber, and charge two cents for all passengers at other hours. Those familiar with Brooklyn ferry-travel kuow that tbe great bnlk of the toot pa-sengers who go to their dally business New-York usually cross between T3a and 9 A.

and will thus bo charged two cents instead ol a cent and a half as hitherto, tbe half cent that the Company is required to deduct trom the fare of those eross-iug earlier being thus added to tbe larger number crossing after 7 Js. and woo. hitherto, by purchasing- tickets, have only paid cent and a half, and tbe additional bslf ceat thus added to then- fare will, with the tJO.oou per annum saved from rent as before, more tuao counterbalance the loss of tbe half eent deduction reqnired to lie made from the fare of those crossing before T)6 A. M. uuder the new lease.

As far aa I am concerned, I would as soon pay a cent ani a half through the convenience of tickets, as one eent cash, even were I in the habit of erossme at that early hour but I simply call your attention to the fact thai the Feiry Company is tbe gainer aud not the loser by the change. A. C. F. Nhw-YORK, Saturday, May 28, 1870.

Xhe Fareiom Csmpasies Insnrance BUI. lo the Editor of the hew-York Time Your paper of the 24th inst. contains an editorial entitled Monopoly in Fire Insurance," and a communication headed Remonstrance against the Bill Relating to Foreign Insurance Companies," both maintaining the same views. In the interest of the public, and rclyiug upon your spirit of fairness, we request that your readers be allowed to see the following brief notes as conspicuously as Ike articles alluded to were put before them. The policy of this State is tx supervise the solvency of insurance companies and to compel those whose capitals are impaired to pay up deficiencies or wind up their affairs.

One of the safeguards of the law against reckless exposure of Insurance capital to dangerous hazards, is tbe restriction to a maximum hasard of ten per cent, of the capital in any one risk. This restric tion Is eminently wise. All New-Yorkcom-panies are of this opinion, and when lately a British agent moved In the Board of New-York Fire Underwriters to Instruct the Committee on Law and Legislation to draw up a bill for Its re-peal, his motion was voted down by 51 nays against his own solitary yea. The Insurance law containing the restriction was framed when there were no foreign companies in the country. They subsequently came, and for years evaded all control by tbe State on technical grounds.

Companies from other State came In under the law with all its conditions and restraints. English companies alone managed to be exempt from Its wholesome provisions. The bill now before the Governor has no other object than to guarantee to tbe public the same security under au English policy that they have uuder an American one, that the capital of the Company shall be unimpaired, and that its transactions shall be limited to the same proportion on tangible capital as are those of American companies. Its first section says so in terms. Its second section defines bow the capital of foreifrn companies is to be determined, by the amonut of deposit in Albany, or in any State of the Union where it may be available for the whole Union, by tbe amount of loans on bond and mortgage, and by tbe amount of other available investments held by trustees, of whom the Insurance Superintendent shall be one.

If this aggregate amount of assets, less their unpaid losses and liabilities for current risks to the extent of fifty per cent, of the premiums received for the same, shall constitute tbey may, if they choose, write policies of in one risk. If it shall be equal to t2 ,000,000, they may write policies of $200,000. If there is any discrimination in this, it is still against the American companies, who are restricted to ten per cent, on their capital proper, leaving their accumulated assets powerless as a basis for their transactions. The law, for instance, limsts the Continental to $50,000 on one risk on tbe ground of its capital being $500,000. The assets of the Continental are close upon rl.600,000.

If the law to which the British companies object applied equally to the Continental, it might write nearly $450,000 in one nsk. This is simply said to point out the absurdity of tbe fancied grievance, for the management of the Continental is so careful that it would never undertake a hazard to the full extent of its powers under the law, and we question whether It baa any risk on its books in excess of three-fifths of the limit of tbe law. British underwriting, on the other hand. Is utterly reckless. In tbe last report of the Insurance Department of Iowa, the Liverpool.

Loo-don and Globe answer the question, What is the greatest amount insured iu any one risk with the simple words, No rule." The proposed law of New-York intends that there shall bee rule, and that this rule shall be one of safety to the public Your cor respondent lays great stress upon tbe greatness of the British companies, speaks of their fifty millions, and throws a halo around themes though they were something wonderful. In the sworn statement of these eumpanies, as published, in tomes Heport, they fay claim only to a combined paid up capital ot 50. This is but an insignificant fraction ot the insurance capital of New-Y'ork State alone, which amount to over fM.40U,0OU, to which other State in the Union add over $20,500,000. The American capital devoted to fire insurance in New-York is therefore over $53,000,000. ail paid up and under thorough State supervision.

This capital hi amply sufficient to cover all the risks In the State, but it does not therefore object to the introduction ef British competition. All it demand la that this competition shall be fair, aud based on rn 1 r- vi'riT f-j iloqueiit advertisements. The capital the British companies claim to have la Lbs than eight million. Of this they bave oa deposit In all the States of the Union in son, to secure to policy -holders in this country $34aJ71LM insured, itemes Jirpori, 1868, p. shows In his table of reinsurancea.

barged to American companies for th safety of the public, an average charge ef $83 S3 for every $100,000 at risk. A similar charge against the amount at risk in the United State in British eea panle would demand a reserve of tJ.t0S ass beyena the ameant which tbey may wish to aa gjf espital, and en which tbe law limit them to line not exceeding ten per cent. Has not the public a right to demand that Britaah poiicie sold in this market shall be a veil secured a those ef bos companies And will no the pobUve be benefited by UauUng the foreign eompanie to swea traasaouous are held 10 be pradent by the law regulating American laeuraaee eompames It is very easy to raise a cry of monopoly aad to anneal popular prejudioe; but the laetaof what eT-nerWaeed fvhalAont ank The advocates of the bill bave not tbe sManteet eojeetaoa to foreign corn paste of waaeewar degree of strength, as mag a their trananetiea a now acted the to which the law limit American eompaaies.

The Winnipeg Xew Nation, of the 8th brings the report of an Important speech delivered by President Reil on the 5th inaC He announced some changes la bis "Cabinet. wblcb now, be said, was composed of Hon. Mr. Btnot, Secretary; Hon. Mr.

M( Kat Ud-miaiotM of Indian Affair, and Hon. Mr. BROCK Sonerin.endent of Public Works, lie continued Let me. then, ask this honorable Hons to pronounce on tbe Executive appointments. It mar be that, wtth the advent of another government to power, by and by.

tha Legislature ntav not bave such an opportunity aa that now offered. For myself. I am the more glad to take this as it forma a protest airamat the accusations brought against me thai I bave assumed dictatorial powers. I am not. and have not been dictator, ami I sincerely hope It will never be necessary that any oue in power in this country will piav such a part, cheers,) After Mr.

McKay had indicated some reluctance to accept en account of health, Kfc.lL proceeded We have just learned by man tbat something la goiug on iu tbe other, provinces of Confederation, which concerns ns. Threats are beie made but I do not know bow far these threats are goiug against us. For my own per. I de not attich much importance to titeio and I hive been tbe more inclined to tht'. view in consequence of a telegram which hu jus? ncen received by his Lordship Bishop from Father Ricbot aud the other Coiiuilssioners.

Tbey announce that they are urging a settlement with Canada, and that there ia no danger. Bu at tbe same time I have observed in tbe other reports which have reached us that some importance ts attached to one idea, uaiuely. that tbe people here are divided, and that the conditions on which we acre prepared to receive Canada bad been changed before they left here, with the Commissioner. It is true there bas been a change, but it is. I tbiufc, one for the better, as the terms proposed the long run more easily be assented to, than those agreed ou In the Conventlou.

Some changes were found to be necessary bv the Executive, aad they had to be quickly decided ou, as tbe Com-missioueis were expected In Cauada. and ine people hero were anxious to see them starting to Ottawa. Hence the niaui.cr ol making the alterations. But I would li-e to place to ecu before the House, so that bou rabie member might judtce for Uiemaoives. liuu.

Mr. Bcsa, the eccietary, was with us while tne alteration were buiug made, acd so limited was our time for tue wor tbat we had to work day and tught iu order to tluish and enable toe Commissioners lo start at the time they did. Tue Commissioners, of course. Had certain power iu regard to these demands, but betora anyLulog was finally settled, they were msuucled that tho approval of the Legislative Asmmoiy 01 this country was necessary, bo thai, wuile complying with circumstances, we had at tue same time a saving clause that the ratification of tue action of our Commissioners depeiideu altogether on the will of the Legislature of Hits country. Tomorrow, If it is the wish ot the House, 1 will place ou the laol) the List of Rights, as given the Commissioners, nrinteu in Eualisu and Freuh.

1 have to tUuuk you. honorable gentleme.11, for ho attention you have given mo with rvga.u to tho Executive appointments. We niusi. ut course, bear tu mind, that they are merely pruviaioi.al lu their nature. It is said that we are goiug to tig-lit wita England, but we have nut that pre-teusiou.

aud some may fiud out thin, tue present arrangement, sucu as it is. Is tiioiu provisional than tuey think. To this we append an abstract of the list of demauds sent to Canada by Uie delecaa.es: RLIL'S PROPOSITION TO THE DO.VIMUN GOVERNMENTLIST OF DLAIAMJS. 1.

Xhe Hearted It levenn Fraiii ia Cin. chutau- Wsrrast Rev. 71. From the Cincinnati Chronicle, Maw 2. Among the many names which have been lately mentioned connected with fraud upon the Government while in the revenue service, that of Bev.

Maxwell F. Gapdis has perhaps attracted most attention. Tbe prominent part Mr. ADDIS bad taken in public matters for six years before he left us to take charge of his Brooklyn church made him familiar to all our people. Reports have bad aCi davits filed against him and warrants issued several times withm the last ten days, but It was not until last evening that tbev proved true.

Tbe warrant was started en its way to New-York last night. Rumors are afloat, undoubtedly well-f ounued. of other and more important arrest yet to be made. The bonds that so long kept the Whisky Ring a close corporation appear to bave been broken, and the deep of corruption is giving up its vie Urns. What tbe result will be.

or who ia guilty, we cannot My. That frauds and crime were committed wul scarcely be gainsaid, but whether the real transgressors are yet touched Is a question-Could the secrets of the powerful com. bloat ion which worked so aueoeeaf ally to defraud the Government of lu revenue during the administration of Asnaaw Joussos he made public the community would bo shocked, and some men of fortune might be tempted to call npon their palace walls to fall upon them. Ws never expect to see tbat day. We have reason to believe that social lnfineuce aad eissiey are being broucht to bear to soothe tne troubled waters, and we fear th result.

Borne person eew rull of knowlodre aad bravery we suspect will soon become ignorant and timid. Tbe tran-lonziaUua may be wonderful, but it 1 not lmpos- 1ts following tbe affidavit upon which tne warrant for Mr. Gamms was issued. Mr. Rowx.

THS IMaTJORANT. Hew He ta Bsc ears, fisatlts mm tato Way asejekelatf Wee Wei' Ike CesniasT aad Wa Bowed ta XKC OSWI. Few, who have not made a personal ex amlnatioo, bave any Idea of the labor aad atten tion which are bestowed npon tbe Immigrant upon hi arrival on these ahore, aud the care that 1 taken to see that be shall net be Imposed noon during hi brief aoiourn in the City. When it is considered tbat almost the entire expense ef tbe machinery to aecemphah these desirable ends Is originally borne by the Immi grant himself, and that ia reality be 1 of comparatively little expense to tbe eoontry which he In tends to make his borne, tbe public will admire the system by wblcb these taxes ta the form of bead money are gathered and applied to the comfort aad protection of the class who contribute them. the nxrr oBXErrxa.

Tbe first pressure of the hand of the Government, whose protection the immigrant seeks, to extended to the wanderer a the vessel, which kas been bis home daring tbe passage across the ocean, drops ber anchor in front of tbe official residence of tbe Quarantine Officer. The wanderer baa watched with eagerness every foot of tbe progress of the vessel from tbe ttme the pilot boarded her off Sandy Haok. and has continually looked forward to the time when be should be called upon to pass tbe ordeal of tbe final examination preparatory to bis final discharge upon tbe shore ef a free country. What his thoughts may have been during tills intervall those can best describe who bave experienced tbe pleasure of first entering npon a future borne. Tbe ship is no sooner brought to an anchorage than the Health Offleer' barge known by carrying a yellow flag is seen approaching, and presently that official boards the ship.

Tbe ceremony ef visitation ia a brief one, usually. Tbe immigrants are all mustered upon tbe main deck, and as they emerge, pas in review before tbe Health Officer. He determine at a glance it any aleic are being smuggled among the well passea-xers, and if any are there who are ill, they are examined with a view to learn tbe character or the disease. If the vessel has a clean bill of health," she is suffered to pass up. If not.

she is quarantined. If, at the general muster, there be some who are unable to respond, by reason of illness, tbe doctor examinee tbe patients, and if tbe disease with which they are suffering is not contagious, the vessel is allowed to proceed to her destination UCABANTTNED. Bboukl any of tbe pas-ieiigcr have a contagious disease, such as yellow fever or cholera or typhoid or typhus fever, the vessel roust undergo fumigation, aud for this purpose Is sent to the Lower Quarantine. Meanwhile if no sickness exists amoug the cabin passenger they are transferred to a tug and sent up to the City. On arrival in the Lower Bay imtnlgrant passengers are sent to the hospital-ship to which duty the Illinois Is now assigned and there tbe sick are healed and the well are fumigated and prepared for association with their more fortunate fellow-being In the City.

Tbe ship and baggage and cargo undergo thorough fumigation below, and after a time are discharged from Quarantine. Then the passengers come up and are treated at Castle Garden precisely as newly-arrived immigrants. THE NEXT SALtTTATTOlt. If the immigrant has passed tbe Health Officer immediately on his arrival, or if be kas been forced to contemplate tbe promised land from tbe Lower Quarantine for a certain period, be is next greeted by the presence of the Custom-bouse Inspector, wbose duty it is to examine bis baggage, tbe process of which was graphically described in tbe Tubes a few weeks ago. Tbe examination is necessarily thorough, for very often professional smugglers assume tbe garb of immigrants, or lad no tbe Ignorant steerage passengers to conceal dutiable roods in their baggage aad iu this way defraud tbe Government.

The inspection is conducted with rapidity, and as fast as each piece of baggage la examined it is sent over the side into a barge, aad is followed soon after by the owner. hen the ship is discharged the barge proceeds to Ca-tle Garden. FIRST PLACING FOOT OB SHOOE. Here the Immigrant rf oot first touches the shore of a free country. He passe off toe barge, and: presuming that he ts not wanted by the officers of the customs for further exanainxtion be is marshaled luto the rotund of Castle Garden, where ouee resounded tho note ot the Sweedish nightingale herself an immigrant.

This rotunda is divided into sections for eacn nationality, in case more than one ship-load should arrive at the same time. In tbe center of the room are desks, which are occapied by clerks under the chars of Col. Coonax, and here the rmangranta have their names recorded, their destination, Ac if any have letters awaiting their arrival, they receive them. If there are friend ex pectins; them tbev soon lenrn the fact by hearing their names called out from the desk. Those who have foreign coin which they wish to exchange can convert it into greenbac ks at tbe desk and rerei ve wttbln ball of one per cent, cf tbe rate at which gold or silver is then selling in Wall-street.

If any desire to communicate with friends at a tnstsuce, there is the telegraph office in tee building or. if the slower process ot the mall to desired, there are facilities at the desk, and clerks at hand whose business it is to assist tne Immigrant in this respect, even to the extent of writing the letter. SPEEDING THE PASTING GUEST. leaving the sick and Impecunious for awhile. we will follow tbe Immigrant who is provided with means, snd 1 anxious to reach bis deUaa toon through the step which be take to accomplish bis object.

Having registered bis name, and exchanged hi money if be desire to. though this is not compulsory be look after bis baggage. He find that It ha been carefully landed, and is now ia the weighing-room, where the welgb-master is ready, upon it being identified, to count tbe excess aver eighty pounds allowed tbe emigrant over tbe railroads. The owner pars the freight charge, receives a check for his bggage, and depart la peace. If he is to travel on a a team-boat or railroad -car.

hi baggaae is conveyed to tbe depot tree ot charge, if he ia destined for a boa rding-house, or other place in the City, Captain Albebtsok, the baggage-master, will carry it for a reesona-ble land, which is regulated by tbe rules of tbe Garden. Should tbe owner desire to hsve hi baggage retained for a short ttme, it Is plased in the store-room, where it remains perfectly safe until called tor, and no charge for storage is made. If the immigrant wishes to depart at once, and ba aa order for railroad ticket which he purchased on tbe Oder aide of the ocean, he surrenders his order at the ticket office in tbe Garden and receives ticket ta exchange, which carry him to hi declination. If be ha no order, aad desires tickets, he purchases them at the oihee st rate which are established 'by the railroad companies aad approved try the authorities at Castle art lea. When he i ready to go he is conveyed to tbe railroad or steamboat depot 00 a barge if there are a suflicient number of passenger to warrant the ase ot tho steamer or he climb upon the express wagon with bis baggage or gee up town on the ears being cannoned meanwhile against the sharper who congregate about the Garden oa the watch for taoee whom they may take La and do for.

THE DLSTTTCTB rJOOGBAHX. It the stranger bas bo money with wblcb to reach his destination, aad ba baggage, the latter is some times detained aad the money advanced thereon or the baggage 1 forwarded to th destination with the immigrant and tbe Charge collected thereon when the atreagnr meet hi friend. If he bas neither money asr baggage, but ba friends la tbe far Wast, er isewaere. who might, it tbey knew ef bis ctr-cunistaaees, assist turn, be is sent Ward' Island for shelter, and letters are written for him, the response to which be await with anxiety.
