During the last year. according 10 the Rep u, The
Commissioners OF Ens alton ass ooi alien srans

per cent over the previous year and include the
four preceding year,, the arrivals have amounted 10

three forrths OF the immigration to the unl,sd

Hon. EDWARD p. Haze, The arrangements LEES
effective, While the expense per capita is about %
per cent greater.
We might refer, with some detail, TO the sdmirs-
bic medical ana surgical arrangements at QuasaA-

here TO remark, that Tho medical, surgical and OBJ
ste.rical branches aIs IN charge OF phy sicans OF

the humbest class OF patients degree OF care and
skill way inferior 10 that bestowed on the most
opulent patients The proportion OF deaths 10 tho
