We give in a letter, to-day, the commcnts of
a Barllfl journal ustially er.-ditrd with being
the modiuiii of semi-ofticial conimunications of
th*' I'ntr-. ..-in Goverunicnt, ou the roport pub
lishod here that that Government waa cndeav
oring to obstruot omigration. The measure is
rcpresent.-d as boing nicrely one of domestie
admhustration. At. the time of roceiving by
cablt- tho summary of this article we stated
that any proceeding on tho part of Prussia to
prevent rnngration is certainly a quostion of
donitrttio administration, but it disappoints
tho Jitc-vt expe-ctations wliich have b-.cn
raist'd of tho freedom of euiigration
tn this country. Now that we have tfc text
of tho article l*cforo us we se? ao Teason to
a!t4_r tho opiuion tbeu fxpres-u-d, although
some df the reniarks of our _*erlin coteni
porary are aecotnpnnit'd with an unneeessary
ixhibition of temper. There i.s, however, a
distuict uccu_ation uiade against the American
Ooviy^-iiK'j^t, whiji^eserves atieution. It is
laid th-Totif Govornmont isresponsiblc for the
lailuro of the negot iations, bogun several years
ago, for tho protection of emigrants on tho
voyage to America. Theae ne gotiations were
supposed to bo based on purely humanitarian
grounds, and the ac-cusation is of such a naturo
as to render very opportuno soino |tatement
fiom the ."--tato Department at YV ashiugton.
It is not natural to expect the Btiporintendont
of the l.a.-. Hiver llridgc, wj.o hnn mamired,
with a subs.ription of $150,000 and tho judi
ci.uis tiite of a few ioiivcuiimt proxiea, to keep
control ot an eatfi-W iu whieh New-York and
Brooklyn have nearly live inillitnis inve*.ted,
.1 reliin-uisli volunlarily his power to au Al
b,iny-api?oiiitedCoiiimission. 'While thedangtr
Dt tho oue man power in control of so great a
arark il Bpyaiual. the proposed Commission is
not to be iiiiiti-uiplat-d without much hesita
tion. YV. hav n't a doubt lhat Mr. Kin. sloy
or any other man in ln-* position, aad with hifi
opportunities, ought to be more restrirted than
lie now wi uml "88 advooate MBeh rpstnetions.
I.it the late- invo-stiirution l-OWB that Mr.
Kingsk-y ha.* done the work faithfully, eco
nomically.'iiid with encrgy. Iv there any assur
atiie tliat a Comniission will ta more honest

Two Govornora will 1k* iuaugurated iu Loti
lliaaa to-tlay. One of these il Wm. I'itt Kel
logp, formeriy Oolleetor ofl the l'ort of New
Oilt-iins, now Unitod States Senator from
1. iiiisiana. He was ou the rej-ular Kcpiibliean
li.-kot. The other il Mr. John MiKneiy, who
w.ih <hosen on the Fusion ticket. As long as
Kellogg has the United States Court and the
auihority ol tho Fial.-ral ('..veiument ou his
si.l.:, h*: niii.st be oonsidereil a-s holding the
a.tual powan of tlie Governor.-,hip. At any
rate, Ul inauguration will dispcn.io with that
groai fraud?the I'inchback domination ; but
it is no losn a usiirpation. It is well that
ih* re BN HO indications of a violent collision.
The vapoiings of tho retiring I .niiiback have
ban somewhat coolod by the deolaration of
tho l'resi.lont and Gen. Shennan that U. S.
troops shall not. b. uscd UM-pt iu I sharp
I'liiergency and to pivscrve the jioaco. This
.judieious instruotion to Gon. Emory hai given
the 1 .nchhack jwiiile to uuderstand that they
M not to Uaunt their military support in the
Iao*' of the other party; it will have tho efiect
to k**?p tho peacu. It is a matter for regret
that the Senat. Conmiittce on Louisiana aftairs
eoulil not tin.l it e_pedient to send a trusty
Commission to New-Oileans; liut, if they will
give the eaM nn open and thorough inve.?tiga
tioii, tho coiintry will be satisticd.
OCB CORRFSPONUESCE WITU 8PAJB.
Very few candid peopie can read the cor
respondence which we publish to-day, >>etween
our State Department and the Legation of
the Uniti'd States at Madrid, without admit
ting that all its statements aro true and accu
rat*', and most of the demands made by our
Government are just and reasonable. But it
is also irapossible to deny that when it is pub
li-hed in Madrid it will servo as a most power
ful weapon in the hauda of the pro-Slavcry
party against tho liboral Cabinot of Kuiz
Zorrilla, who are now striving, apparently in
K'ood faith, to initiate in the island of Porto
Kico the abolitiou of Slavery and the establish
ni.-iit of extensivo municipal reforms. It is,
indeed, difficult to sce wLat motive cau
huve led tbo Department of State to
givo these docutneuts to the public.
We all know tbat tbo Governmeut was ex
irting itself with aaal perhaps greater than
its discretion in urgiug upou tho Cabinct of
King Aiuadcus tbo fulblliuout of promises
torfg ago 9.&dc, of refonns iu whicb our m
torest is oiily"isecou(r to tTiat of ^naln. It w&iT
not necessary to prove this w_.l-i___cr$tood
faet, and although, after the deiired reforms
were obtained, it would havo beeu altogcther
proper to make knowu the processes through
whjch the resnlt was accomplished, it ccrtain
ly seem s impnident to risk an unnece^sary
jiublicati *n which, at this time, must soriously
enibarraf-s a Ministry from whicb wo expect
liboral dealing, and which aa yet han done
nothing to forfoit our confidonc- and sya_
pathy.
Tbo dispatch of Mr, Fish under date of the
20th of October is one of tbe most unrolent
ingly trm hf ul and candid documents re.ordod
iu diplomatic aunals. lt sets forth, in languago
whero the blade of faet is very scautly
wreathed with garlauds of courtesy, the entiro
history of our relations with Spain during the
last four yoars, and tbe stcady and ptmctual
failuro of tho latter country to fuWill her sol
cmn engigements. Mr. Fish lxigins liy re
ferring to the uuquestioned iuliuouce and su
premacy of tbo presont Cabinet in tbe Cortes and
among tbe. ina*sea, land stating tbat tbere is
now uo room for doubting tbeir ability to carry
tbe promised rofonaa into effect. He tben
draws an unflatt^-nng pict,ure of tbo difl'eronco
between the prnf.-AHioiiH .and the performan. .
of the Spaui-h Goveniment in respoct to tbe
abolitiou of Slaveiy, aud direcU our MiuisU-r
to rentoiistratr, " in docisive but rfyiper.tfiil
" ti-rmi," against further delay. Thero is a
rather gratuitona uso of tho words " duplieity
" and bad faith n in this relation, as such things
should never be insiuuated whon they are not
dlroctly chnrged. Tho refcrcnces made by the
Sc<Tctary of .^tate to the, barbarous treatuicnt
of tho Coolics by tho Cubaa slavcholders are
strong and pcrfcctly just.
It is, however, his potdt ion in rcgnrd to tlic
insurriction whiih will asaita most fury among
tlio "party of national intigrity" in Sp:iin.
The ttttt of tln' Sccrctary in this . crtion af
his dispatch Ls clearly that of mcnaco. F.vtn
tbal l'amous uoto (.f the 3d of St?ptcmbt r, 186'.),
wliich caused tUtb unexampled excitcmcnt ia
Madrid, contaiiicd no such clear aud explicit
Wiiruiiig of probahhi complications. Mi. l'ish,

ampled vigilance fulfillcd all Ui duiies townrd

is, porhaps, th. only incorrei't stiiteinent in the
dispatch. Notliiug Spaui can do in Cula, ex

on which theae ookinlBilai- are b_Md wutt
mado partly in the tropi_cs and partly in
Australia. They consist of niathematical avor
IfCfl of tho fre(|ueucy of cyclones aud the
depth of rainfall at various atatJOOfl during
long serics of y.-iiis. The taiulall computa
Uoius are preseuted at cousiderable length ;
an.l it may lieli.te inciitiont'd that iuthe tropi.s

tablflfl af suii-sjiot fiequeiicy, flf cyclones, nnd
of rainfall, rise to their mii-imum iu certain
yi-ars aud gradually sink to their minimuiii in

striking, lf not convincing.
All the BM- oiologim! observations af reeent

that iu thfl storms of any particular region,
BTCat uuifonnity exists in regard to the path

pniiiUel between the study of thetie movements
and of ocean tides has freqnently been sug

tain tendiiicies to accumulation at some loe ,ili
ties and deliciency at others, and to aocelera
tion or letardation, that have been carefully
it. iiided. It is known for instatn-e that a
tide of a certain hight in the seu outsitle
will, within a certain number of hours, pile
up b_ t!ie Hiiy of Fumly, 40, 50, or 60
