The following communication was sen; 10 the
Editor OF the Sun on one dsy OF last week, but Its
publication w.s refused. The high character OF
the gentlemen assailed, and the well known fact
that all their interests ere directly opposed to the
course of conduct charged, should at least have
secured them hearing in the quarter where The
attack was made As it has been denied them,
however we cheerfully give it an insertion:
IRISH EM1egAsTs.-An editorial article ap-
peared in Yesterday San, charging emigrant ship
ping agents with high handed fraud, of which
they are most entirely innocent.


The Sun stated, on the authority, as it said, OF
some passengers noH arriving here, that hand bills
are being circulated in all parts of ireland by those
engaged in the shipping trade, falsely represent
ing that laborers are in great demand in the Unlted
States and that wages are high in order to induce
emigration. This allegation, however, is not only
utterly destitute of foundation, but 1t directly re-
verses the fact, for the shipping agents anxlonsy
endeavor 10 bring no more laborers into the United
States than there is fair demand for, as. were
they to do otherwise, the loss would chiefly II not
entirely fall on their own shoulders. he editor
of the Sun nodoutt received and believed the story
as he gave IT, but it is nevertheless most unqali-
fed fasehood from beginning to end, as no such
hand bills as those he speaks of, or anything in
their likeness, were circulated through Ire
land, or any where else


The next day the following order was sent to
the publisher, but received from him no attention
the advertisements appearing in his paper the
day after as usual =
