IN consequence of the great number of complaints which
have for a long tlmo been made by Bmigrauts, of frauds
committed upon them in the sending of money to their
friends in Ireland, and to aid and protect the Emigrant,
the Irish Emigrant Society established a fund, deposited
in the Bank of Ireland, upon which they draw drafts,
payable at sight, at any of the branches of the Bank.
Persons residing out of the eity, by enclosing in a letter
the sum they wish forwarded, with the plainly written
direction to whom and where it is to be paid, will have the
same remitted.
Tliero is a great advantage in purchasing the Society's
drafts?that the Bank has a branch in each of the princi
pal towns in Ipelaud, and thus tho losses by discount, and
otherwise, are avoldud
The Society keeps an office at No. 22 Spruce street, to
which Emigrants can apply to obtain situations for which
they aro fitted.
Orders from employers in the country, stating the ser
vices required, the wages, and the cheapest modes of con
veyance. and giving a respectable reference, will meet with
prompt attention.
The Society will be. thankful for all circumstantial and
early information of any fraud, imposition, or outrage
committed on Emigrant h, ond will eudctivor speedily to
apply a remedy. ? GREGORY DILLON, President.

to give confluence to those who may not have tried it, we

name as a recommendation to tanners in general. To all
who know Mr. Z. C. Ryon this would be sufficient; but all

granted us this privttego. If ft were necessary we could
fill a newspaper with testimonials; but where all who use
arcpleaseu we deem it uncalled for.

[Otu'fpo Journal, J
CUBA.
Important from Cuba. The New York Sun,
of Monday, contains the substance of a letter
from Port Principe, dated May 4th, addressed
to a Cuban gentlemun in that city, who vouches
tor its truth aud correctness Nine of the most
eminent, talented and wealthy citizens of the
place were arrested before day, aud taken un
der close guard to the dungeons of Moro, in
Havana. Their names are Joseph K. Betau
coui t, lawyer ; Ferdinand -Betancourt, lawyer ;
Manuel Arango, lawyer; Joaquin Rivera, law
yer; i-rancisco Varona, planter ; Francisco V.
Batista, planter; Francis Qucrada, planter;
and Salvador Cisnero, planter. The pretence
under which they were arrested is, that they
were engaged in the revolutionary movement,
now on foot in the island. The'arrests were
made by order of the Captain-General to Senor
Leimerich, the Governor. The officers are also
in pursuit of Senor Solitarjo, of Cunaquez, Se
nor Augustin, Joseph Castillo and others. The
correspondent of the Sun represents the excite
ment throughout the island as intense, and
thinks that the outrage will arouse the whole
population to a sense of their danger and the
necessity of resistance to the Spanish despo
tism which now rules only to oppress and ruin
them.
Revolutionary Fekuno in Cuba?Spanish
Opmotu.?The Savannah Republican has some
translations of extracts from Spanish letters
from Havana, received by the Isabel. They
come by private hands. After vouching for the
entire truth of its assertions, one dated the 8th
instant says:
Hourly, nay minutely, have we been anxiously
waiting to hear the joyful tidings of your beinj
lauded on the isle, or at least on your way. Do
not believe for a moment the rumors that you
will receive no aid here on the island. Many
Spanish officers and soldiers, independent of
the Creoles, will join the Patriot* hs soon as
they land; and could I, without endangering
the lives of many of my friends here, I would
give the names of some of the most influential
and wealthy planters on the islo, who have
pledged their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor
in the contcst?such names as would make the
throne of her royal majesty tremble. The day
will come and that, too, ere long?when Cuba
it-ill be free! But still I fear for our friends
here, lor God knows if the least suspicion is
thrown out they will suffer, and that terribly.
Havana, May 8.?" Montes de Oca, the un
fortunate individual who was the victim of the
i barbarous government of Spain, met his fate
like a hero.
" Previous to his execution the Captain Gen
eral, Concha, gave him nine days to denounce
all the patriots on the island, and promised him
his liberty and a large sum of money ; but he
only replied that he would sooner die a thou
sand deaths than denounce his friends."
Troops in CvnA.?There are more regular
troops in that small island, probably, than in
V ?>? n?tiaSut.Vf North Americu?tlicy num
ber .,.>,000. Besides this great armament, there
are also several ships and wur-steamers around
the coast?we know not how many. Such are
the props of despotism and oppression.
Tiik Mwbodbt Church Cask, which is a
I suit brought by the representatives of the Gen
oral Conference (South) to recover from the
.Northern Conference of the same church seven
f or eight hundred thousand dollars, claimed for
them as part owners of the general fund pre
vious to the separation, on account of differ
ences growing ont of the question of slavery
was commenced on Monday morning, in the
Lnited States District Court, in New Vork be
fore Judges Wilson and Betts. The court-room
w8.^1 ,f? l.Te been crow,,e<i> and a number of
Methodist clergymen were present. The gen
eral fund, which is the object in controversy
is at this time invested in the Methodist Book
Establishments of Ohio and New Vork, and in
the charitable fund of Philadelphia. Messrs.
Keycrdy Johnson and 1). Lord appear for the
plaintiffs, and Messrs. George Wood and Rufus
t hoate for the defendants. The Hon. Thomas
bwing has also been retained as counsel for
the plaintiffs. The case is a deeply interesting
one as regards the parties and the principles
involved. r
The way of thk wori,d.?If some poor devil
without habitation, money, or friends, is charged
with a violation of law, an account of all the
circumstances is given as a warning to evil-doers
and a defence to the community against the
perpetration of crime from such agents; but let
a well-dressed individual with a fair exterior
money at command to secure friendly aid
with shrewdness enough to evade positive de
tection?let such, who have in the opinion of
hose familiar with their history been violating
law for a lifetime, and been imposing upon the
oommunity, be charged with their crimes, a
studied silence is observed?nothing to guard
the public against the imposters is snid, and he
may continue to outrage justice with impunity.
Battle of New ORi.FAxs.-The late Major
Davetac stated that, on the morning after the
battle of New Orleans, tterlve broiled robins
were placed on the breakfast table, prepared
for General Jackson and his suite, which had
been shot with a rifle, through the head, by one
of the Kentucky riflemen, who had been in the
conflict; he had fired thirteen time*, and missed
hitting his bird in the head only once! This
circumstance being soon known in the neigh
borhood, a certificate of the fact was requested
and obtained from General Jackson and his
aids by the British officers, that by such evi
dence. on their return to Kngland, they might
exhibit to their government the character of
the enemy at New Orleans.
M*. Kmni.K. the American agent at the
World s Fair, says he honestly believes that
the Americans have within the Crystal Palace
the best piano-fortes, the best carriages, wagons
and coaches, the best ploughs and winnowing
machines, the best cotton, and the best dentists'
tools, dentist work, and labor-saving machinery
and that, if justice be accorded, we shall receive
upon them all the highest premiums. Tn the
department of tools and labor-saving contri
vances, which abound in every workshop in the
United States, the representation at the Fair is
lacking.
Robbery of Government Pine Lands.?The
Detroit Tribune states that extensive depreda
ions have for some time been committed upon
the Government Ian.Michigan. Thcamount
of lumber carried away unlawfully to Wisconsin
and Illinois i? estimated at five millions faet per
week during the season of navigation. The at
tention of Government having been directed to
these robberies, steps have been taken to put a
stop to them, 1
Ladies a la Tuhque.?A young lady, dressed
in the new costume, astonished some of our
staid citizens yesterday, but we must say that
in our opinion it was a most becoming dress,
beautiful feet were handsomely encased iu half
patent leathers. The pantalooua were of mixed
tweed material, similar to the dress, full and
buttoned at the uncle. A large cape, and a
dashing straw hat, completed the costume of the
lady, who was evidently a stranger and travel
ler. We think the innovation will finally suc
ceed. Aeuark Mtrcury, May 20.

<00 miles; of which Major T. 8. Brown, Ute
of the Erie road, will be chief engineer. It is
noteworthy that the American great enterprise
is by a private company; the Russian is built
by government.
Life and Death in California.?In Shasta
city, California, lately, a man named S. 8. East
erbrooks, of Wisconsin, deliberately shot Mr.
Josiah Price, late of Philadelphia, while sleep- *
ing in his tent. The murderer was instantly
cuught, and a jury of twelve men were sum
moned to try him.. After a fnll and fair exam
ination, he was pronounced guilty of murder,
and hung, liasterbrooks leaves a wife and
three children in Wisconsin. Mr. Price leaves
a wife and one child in Philadelphia.
Canada.?The improvements and large in
crease in the postal arrangement^ indicate the
rapid progress of the province. Forty-two years
ago the great mail from England, by the way
of Montreal and Quebec, was carried once a
fortnight for Kingston and Toronto, in a pair
of saddle-bags by a man who usually went
a-foot. There are now in Canada H(M) post
offices, yielding a total revenue of $400,000 per
annum.
Fined.?A young man at Delaware City was
fined five dollars, a few days ago, for enclosing
two letters in a newspaper, and attempting to
send the same through the niaiL This should|
prove a warning to those who have the dispo
sition to defraud the Post Office Department.
A Great 1 ruth.? In the long secession
speech of Mr. llhett, of South Carolina, we find
the following " great truth ;" being a grain of
wheat in a bushel of chaff, it should be pre
served :
"It will be far earner indeed, in my opinion, to
I yet out oj the Union than to keep out of it."
The Strong Argument. ? The Greenville
(8. C.) Patriot states that the people of South
Carolina are grumbling at the heavy increase
of taxes, fifty per cent., besides the tax on
money at interout, levied by the last Legisla
ture, for secession and war purposes.
John Nkal, es<1., of Portland, Maine, of
