THE TRIALS OF A COMMISSIONER.

The Emigration Commissioners will hold their an
nual meeting to-day. None of them is mentioned
as seeking Tor the Office Of president Not ap-
pears TO be anxious TO preside over the deliberations
of the Board until il becomes more united and har-
nOnious. Among other things the Board will con-
sider the present embarrassed condition of its
finances. 1t is sadly in want OF money, not having
more than enough to get through February
one of the Commissioners, III speaking of the
matter recently, said " 1t is a question with us
whether il will be best to close up & institutions
when the funds are exhausted or TO borrow money
10 keep them up until We get an appropriation
We give more or less time to looking after the in
teresis of immigrants daily, besides attending the
regular meeting, and special meetings of the
Board, and tine Investigations of the various com
plants of immigrants, and we do II all for nothing
except the abuse which is heapcd upon Us. 1t is
suggested that we should appeal 10 Congress or
the support of the institutions That IS Just What
we have been doing for years, 10 no elect. think
there should be National legislation upon this suO
iect and that the foreign steamship companies
which are beneiiung so largely by this great i'm
migration should bear their proportion of the ex-
peueesN
