DESTITUTE IMMIGRANT PASSENGERS.
From the Boston Custom house books.
it appears that from the lst of April to the
10th ofJune, little over two months,
seven thousand four hundred and thirty
eight passengers have arrived at that
port, nearly all of whom are Immigrants.
The number which arrived at New York
last week alone is stated to be 8,9l4.--
Two thirds of these, we are told, are
from land of famine and disease. The
steps of the Aston House, the Custom
house, Merchants Exchange, and other
localities in Broadway and Wall street,
are literally blocked up with mendicants,
while scattered in squalid groups, along
Nassau street and around the Park, may
daily be seen sad and real pictures OF
human misery and destitution.
A novel plan of providing for this class
ofimmigrants has been suggested in the
Boston Daily Adertiser:
SIT is proposed that the city government
OF Boston "should purchase number OF
acres ofland-at government prices-in
some one of the Western States or Ter
rItories, to which these persons, coming
here to escape starvation.m may be removed
Each one, with such family as he may
have, is to be furnished with land enough
to commence the life of farmer. He is
to be asked to pay nothing at first for his
situation, but year by year as his condi.
ton improves,he is to be taxed something
toward the expenses of the general insti
tution. Hhe is successful, he willin five
years own farm, and the city win have
been paid for it; if he is not successful, the
loss will be small to every one, anc
lpFobably nothing to the city. The inprov

IA, Wall ST., May %, AT.
Agreeably to call through the public
papers, meeting was held of subscribers
20 the Illinois and Michigan Canal Loan
and others interested in Illinois indebted
ness. On motion of w S Wetmore, esq.
Elisha Riggs was called to the chair, and
Jacob Little appointed Secretary.
The following preamble and resolutions
were then read and adopted:
1t is the opinion of this meeting, from
the information which has been received,
that the interests of the bondhoders, as
well as of the citizens of the State of Ils
linois, have suffered in consequence of
nom attendance on the line of the works;
when such attendance was absolutely
necessary for one, and sometimes for
both the bondholder trustees; and as q
consequence ofsuch neglect of the inter-
ests of their constituents, the completion
OF the canal has been retarded some
months! Some Of the contractors have
not commenced operations, owing in
great measure to the want of that active
agency and personal attention on the part
ofthe bondholder trustees, which their du-
ties and obligations make necessary; it is
therefore
Resolred, That this meeting believes
il TO be expedient and necessary to quick
and economical completion of the Illinois
and Michigan Canal, that ONE at least of
the bondholder trustees should give his
presence and personal attention on the line
OF the work, during its progress, and till
its completion.
Resolved, That although the law enac-
ting the Office Of trustees omitted to pro.
vide for their compensation, this meeting
believes it cannot be justified, that an ex-
cessive amount ofsalary should be char.
ged upon fund. the joint provision of the
subscribing stockholders, and the public
property of the State ofIllinois.
RESOLVED, That we consider the amount
of salaries taken from the joint fund by
the TWO bondholder trustees as excessive
bearing no relative proportion to the
services rendered by them, and that
committee be appointed by the chair to
wait upon those two gentlemen and re-
quest them to render their accounts. with
a charge not exceeding that paid to
the State Trustee; and in case of their
persistIDg in holding and taking such ex-
cessive salaries that the committee be au-
thorized to take such measures as may ap.
pear to them proper in the premises.
The following gentlemen we're appoint

Although the radiant light of Joy
Has faded from my brow.

And all my hopes of brighter days
Have long sine passed away.
But angel spirits often speak
Outright and cloudless skies;
Of fragrant flowers that never fade,
OF JOY that never dies.
You say, too, that my voice
Hath lost its mirthful tone,
And that the music of my soul
With brighter days hath Town.

The following are the remarks of the
Courier d Enquirer on this subject, to-
gether with the pr proceedings ofthe meeting
of the bondholders:
We give below, the proceedings of a
nesting of persons interested in illinois
bonds, helG just previous to the election
of trustees of the Illinois and Michigan
Canal, which took place on The 9th inst.
The leading cause of this meeting as
represented to us, is ''the great dissatis-
faction ascertained to exist in the State

interests of that Slate by the two bond.
holders trustees, who have voted to them
selves from the fund in their possession,
$4,000 per annum each, whilst the State
trustee receives from the same fund but
$4,000 per annum-the latter giving his
whole time to the duties of his office, and
the two former residing, the one in New
York and the other in Boston or Wash
ington, and visiting the works in progress
in illinois but once or two year, and then
charging their travelling expenses in ad-
dition to their salaries. By the absence
ofthese two trustees. it is said delay in
the progress OF the work has been occa-
stoned. The trustees have also placed
their funds in deposit in one of the banks
in Wall stree. Of which one of them is
President at 3 per cent interest, while
similar deposits readily command from
the best banking institutions in the city,

to 2 per cent on balance in the bank on
the 3Olh of November last, ofrising $500

since May ls45, is supposed to be largely
above this sum.
