ITALIAN IsIMIGRAXFs.

The recent fraud perpetrsted uo7n n
whole shiplOad of Italians, who were
brought from the south Of Italy, was the
occasion of the meeting held recently i'm
New York: Colonel TOnnelG. Presi-
dent Of the Society Of the Union
Nationalities, was present, and stated.
that the object of the committee
was first TO draw I'd ne
mortal in accordance with the instruc-
tons of the meeting held the night pre-
vlous. Nothing Better suited the Occa-
casiOn than the passage of the bill Of
Mr.. COnger, which was TO he brought
forward in Washington on Wednesday
next By this bill the Commissioners of
Emigration would ne authorized to con
tract with another State for the care Of
immigrants Especially was that part
very applicable where express provision
was made to prevent the landing Of no.
tOrious criminals OF paupers The first
duty of the committee was to draw up a
memorial to Congress in support of Mr..
COngeT' : bill, and praying that the i'm
migration of paupers from Italy to this
country be prohibited.
Colonel Pratt said already the memo
rial had been prepared, and would he
sent to Washington on the morrow. It
embodied al the views expressed bv
Colonel TOnelh, and more than that. lie
took up the subject Of having the swim
ding agents properly punished-wh no 50
heartlessly robbed the poor people Of
their means, and under false DreIeuces
induced them to leave their own sunny
cline. The memorial also recon-
mended that 8 strict Government in
quiry should be made on the subject.
With regard to raising funds toward the
relief Of the immigrants who were then
under the care Of the Emizrant Com
missiOners, that should be left in the
hands Of special committee; but as
this meeting was merely for the eOnsid-
Grafton Of the memorial be did not
think it proper to take the matter up.

zens and others viii be called at an ear
" day to be held under the auspices Of
the United NatiOnalities, when the mat
ter will be fully ventilated and means
contributed toward defraying the ex-
penses Of the Italian immigrants to

panies at these rates had no margin for
their percentages. The stockholders of
the great company were previously
wounded as well as its agents, even
though it was very clearly demonstrated
"on paper that there were profits
enough at the reduced rates. But the
pressure against the change became ir-
resistible; compromise was effected,
old rates were re-established, and every
thing moves along swimmingly.

london is in a dispute over the adult
teTation Of coffee, as well as the perni-
cious effects of tea-drinking. On the one
side, certain newspapers have charged
that it is next to Impossible to obtain
pure coffee from any dealer, and that
the articles used in adulterating it are
hateful. On the other side, the dealers
claim that they are not responsible for
the adulteration, such as it is; that peo-
pie, as rule, do not like pure coffee and
cannot afford to use il and, finally, that
nothing is used to mix with cOffeeexcept
chickory, because there are no articles
cheap enough to take its place. 1t is
maintained that chickory is not even so
hurtful as coffee, and that the practice
of mixing it with coffee is a decided i'm
provement upon poor article of the
latter,

THE CANAL SCHEME.

The greatest good, with the least pos
sible expenditure, which a canal can
effect, would be accomplished by such a
channel for commerce, extended from
the Mississippi at Memphis, to the Ten
nessee at Tuscumbia. Despite this sim
pie fact, so palpable that one cannot see
a map Of the United States without its
obtrusion upon his notice, the President
Of the United States never once suggests
it in his discussion of this subject. From
Memphis TO the Tennessee river near
Corinth, the distance is about one hum
bred and fifteen miles; from Memphis
to the same point on the
river by water the dis
lance is perhaps six hundred miles.
The commercial distance from the Val
ley of the Tennessee to New Orleans
and the sea, might be lessened five hum
dred miles by means Of this canal. The
wealth of Arkansas, of Kansas, of
Western Missouri, and of the Indian
nations, would find its shortest route to
the Atlantic coast through such canal
extended, as now proposed in Congress,
from Tuscumbia to Brunswick on the
coast of Georgia. st. Louis, even if the
Cairo and Vincennes, and Memphis and
Belmont roads be not extended to this
city, must have access TO the system of
roads converging al Memphis from the
East and Southeast, and the canal of
which Congress and the President have
80 much to say, should have here its west
srn terminus. st. Louis would be quite
As well accommodated as at Columbus
or Cairo, and inealculable sums
saved in the cost of construction.
This Memphis and Pittsburg Landing
Canal has been talked about for quar-
ter Of a century, and it is gratifying to
see the modest disposition evinced by
the President and Congress to expend
in the South a share Of the incalculable
sums wrested from these States by cot
ton taxation and tariffs.
