COMMISSIONERS OF EMIGRATION

The Board met yesterday afternoon at Castle Gar
den, President VERPLAScK In the chair, and ali the
members present.
Mr. PURDY offered resolution to the effect that the
Secretary report to the Board the amonnt of money
received from emgrants for permission to land apon
the soil of the State of New York the annual amount
paid to the several counties for expenses alleged to
have been incurred by of Sickness misfortune
accident to any emlgrant while IN transit or residing
any county in the State within five years after their
arrival In said State; the smount expended by the
Commissioners of Emigration, since their organization
for the purchase of lands and the erection OF buildings
thereon the title which is vested in the people Of
the State and also the Indebtedness If anyl of the
State 10 the Emgrant Fund, the moneys collected
from emigrants, and also the amount of capital in the
hands of emigrans arriving here during said period
as far as the same can be ascertained.
Mr. Low hoped that the resolution would not be
adopted. He inclined to the opinion that the charge
on emigrants for landing on our soil was as low rs
could reasonably be made, and he considered that 1t
would be extremely unfair and unjust TO persons who
had resided here all their lives and who owned prop
erty, TO allow emiRrants or persons born on foreign
soil to land shores without come guarantee that
they would not become burden to the community IN
which they might settle.
Mr. CURTIS, in few remarks, supported Mr. Low
in his opinions.
Mr. PURDY was opposed to the principle of charging
persons for permission to land upon shores and he
thought we were as likely to become a burthen to
them they might become to US. The idea that we
should impose tax upon q stranger, who might not
remain mere hfteen minutes was prepoeterous, UNFAIR
and to ray the least, unjust. He would ask II this
was not free Government, and il our doors were
not open to receive ALL This free country, free
to all, and it imposition that those who came
hither shoud be taxed for permission to set foot upon
American soil. What would we think should we de-
sire to emigrste to be charged for permission to land
Foreign countries did do IT. other country but
ours did it, and he thought il was bad example on
our part.
After further debate of desultory nature, the
resolution was adopted
The Board then went into an election for officers for
the ensuing year. which resulted in the reelection of
Mr.. Verplanck as President, and Captain Crsbree as
Vice President.
From the weekly statement it appears that the num-
Der of emgrants arrived from the st of jan to the
18th inst. 3, $685. being decrease of $40 in com
parison with the same period last year. Number Of
inmates in Institution on Wards Island, $685. Over
draft, sll $50 l6 Aggregate receipts for commute
ments to same period $2s 1889 81. Leaving balance

number Of young ladies, residing at the Mansion

to reach the shore but vanly, while their nearly dis
rscted frends standing upon the bank, were forced
to witness their Intellectual efforts At this moment,
when their struggles had almost ceased, the, brave
youths sprang to their rescue, and by their united
strength bore the ladies to the shore. One Of them
was seized she sinking for the last time her
hands only being aboTe the surface. Both OF them
lay nsensible for many hours and were only resusci-
ated after the propt and continued application of the
usual methods. The ladies' with number OF their
