We are ladebted to the Rev. P. Lonis Free, played on the worthy people el New South S. J., Director of the Sicawel Meteorological Wales and the operators appear to have their Observatory (ceat Shanghai), for a copy of a naw beadquarters at Valencia, in Spain, An Albay code of signals for the valuable service of storm resident was not ittle surplied, says the Evening News, to receive a letter bearings warnings conducted by the worthy Fathers at Spauld postnik, which rot out that a relative | Shanghai and Chefoo. The new code will come of the colonista's bad died in Spain, leaving into effect on New Year's Day, For the benefit
and a smali -draft was required to pay of shipmanters we reproduce the code in full. fertas, legal expenses, etc, The Albury man was ont to be caught, however. A couple of Sydney sealden have also teen favored with Carres- pondence of a similar kind. One was 'foollth enough to send a sum of £363, and inter, relying | implicitly on the story told by his unknown correspondent, he forwarded a second draft for over 400. Payment of the latter was, howeva, stopped. Mr. W. F. Jewell, Sydney Rope Works, North Boisy, is another who was walten to. In a lever from Valencia, and dated October 17th, the writer, who signed himself Rafael Diaz, stated that his wife was related to Mr. Jewell, but she died recently, leaving one daughter, Diaz states he took part in the Cabso rebellion, and retaining to Spain, was seized, and thrown into a fortress; but he managed to BRYO 1 sum of £35000 in cash out of the wreck of bla fortune. His health bad, and he is awire that his exithly career mati con close. By the connivance of the chaplain of the prison he is enabled to wrlio. The next letter comes to Mr Jewell from the chaplais, informing bim of the death of Diaz, and that he has bran appointed executer and guardian of the girl. Copies of the will to Spania and English were also sent. But there are certain law cost to be pild, and a draft payable in London is asked for, whereupon every bing being put to order the chaplan intimates that he and the girl will start for Australia. A letter from the girl also came to hand. Bis in English, and coclosed photo, of a dik-eyed beauty of about 17 summers, who implores her "dear uncle's pro 'trailon," and signs brnel!'” his most affectionate nlece. Cleely Dias Jewell,"
As Mr. Jewell had no relatives in Spain, he became suspicious, and the matter was reported to the police. The letters are witten in a cramped band; one or two would appear to have been turned into English from the Spanish by the aid of a dictionary, but in ethers there is a smack of Corky idiom there is no denying, Should "Cicely" die before coming of age, the chaploin and Mr.Jewell shaza her farlane accord. ing to the will. It would appear that quite a number of Sydneyırıldants have had rich rela. tres dyleg in Spain lately..
Exchanges of later dates stain that almallar lelters were received by gentlemen living lo Parramatts, Carcoar, Balkursi, and Païkes. Though they vaŊy somewhat in delail, there is a very song family irsemblance between them. Diss, the sich father or uncle, and the dark. eyed niece nie ever present, as is also the dan. geon cell, and, of course, the fortune. The bland request for the necessary craft accompanies all epistles, and the "reverend chaplata " plays his part in each one. But the Cuban stery is not so rellglessly adhered to. The gentleman who so promptly replied with a bank draft for 6662 and who may now consider himself permanently poorer by that amorst, received the first letter some time ago. Ia it the waiter asked no mo netary favour. He said, however, that he, a Bobleman of Spain, was dying in a fortress st Madild. His impelopment was crored through his intimate friendship with the fate King of Spate, which had made him many jealous enemies. For a time he fled to England, where he secreted bis forlade and married an English lady, but returning privately and in disgals: to Spain, he was recognised, charged with a Irivial offence, and committed to go! In definlicly by political enemies. His young wild died soon afterwards, but during their mar.led life had often spoken of "you, her mother's deat relations in Australia." What he now wanted was that his dear piece, Cicely, whom falling health must con face him to leave, might re ceive the purdianship of her antipedeza re. lation The fortest which would result from his death would be ample to give her the poal- tion of a wraliky woman, and he strongly desired that ate might be far removed from the unhappy land in which her young days had been so cionded by trouble end corrow. Other letter followed, then one from the chaplain announcing the unhappy man's death, and forwarding the coples of the will. In bis document the fortune was set down at something equival- ent la £35,000, of which two-thirds were for Cicely, and the residue for her fature kind and devoted guardian. The next letiers contained similar demands and proposals to those ad. dressed to Mr. Jewell. If, however," one of be letters 'ates, "you cannot get so much money, or bare rot the, confidence, there is here a man related to Dias whom the will requests to lend It for that purpose, but in that event be share with you your legecy, according as to the amount paid by each of you."
"I share with robady," probably thought the recipient, as he Immediately forwarded the preliminary draft, and soon afterwards mother for £400. The latter was stopped by cable at Naples, where the Spanish Coas! was com. municated with.
