Dear Sir ~ it'll the privilege which you may

signees OF the steamship President Ii is well known
that in order to obtain admitance board of said
vessel the visiter must first apply for ticket to
the consignees. In accordance with this rule, l
made application at the Office of Messrs Wadsworth
Smith, on Saturday last, for ticket Of admittanee
for myself and number Of ladies, which they gave
without hesitation In the afternoon, about three
OF the clock my company, consisting OF five ladies
and myself, went to where the ship lay, and asked
to go on board. We were refused, although the
ticket, bearing the proper signature Of the con-
sgnees, was duly shown to the thing having charge
of the gangway, who, upon being told that number
of ladies ware present, DESTROYS OF seeing the inte
ror Of the vessel, replied very blantly, " can't
help it,"
knew that no persons would be permitted to go on
board of the President on Saturday, did they do
right in giving tickets of admission for that pur
posel Or fthey did not know 1T, are the subordi-
mates Of the ship justified in refusing admttanee to
those who bear with them the proper passports =
Not wishing to cast any blame upon those who may
be innocent Of this unex plained procedure on the
part Of the steamship President, j ask that either
the officers of the vessel or the consgnees thereof,
be made acquainted with the above facts through
the mcdu of the "Herald," that they may give to
the public some apology for this want OF gailantry
towards about five hundred New York ladies', all OF
whom were disappointed i'll the same manner as my
SELF having received tickets Of admission from the
coAsignees on Saturday.
gether with such other remarks your judgment
shall dictate, bearing in mind that he who now ad-
dresses yeu, does not speak Individually but IN the
behalf of all those who were present, il would seem
only for the purpose Of being mortified and cha
grined. PLURIBUs UNUM
