EngIand,s Generosity.

New YORK, June 25.-The emigra
ton commissioners held special
meeting to consider measures to pre-
vent pauper immigration from Great
Britain. This action was called for
in view of the large arrivals of pau
per immigrants yesterday.
Commissioner Stephenson said he
had procured affidavits from several
immigrants, showing they had been
inmates of several poor houses in Ire
land, and were induced to come to
this country by the workhouse mas
tiers, from whom they had received
passage tickets and small sums of
money. The commissioners consid-
cred the landing of these paupers
largely due to the laxity of the man
agent of Castle Garden, and recon-
mended that inspectors be appointed
who would not be afraid to do their
duty. After further discussion, it was
resolved to instruct the secretary Of
the board to detain all emf
grants proved to be sent here by
funds furnished by the British gov
eminent, and to appoint committee
of the board to wait on the collector
of the port and present affidavits
taken in regard to such cases, and ask
the steamship companies which
brought such immigrants here to be
compelled to return them to the port
from whence they came at their own
expense.
While the meeting was in progress
the commi- sioners were informed
that the steamer Ancharia had Just
arrived with immigrants whose pas
sage had been paid by the British
government, and who were paupers.
1t was resolved not to allow the An
charia's passengers to land until the
inspector had made thorough investi-
cation. The commissioners express
themselves determined to put stop
to the landing of pauper immigrants
from foreign countries.

Monday afternoon q fearful explosion
occurred at Some e. Flcming's oll-works,
on Newtown creek, near Long Island CITY:
A burst OF flame followed, and II seemed

on one OF the great oil-stilh had been blown
off and thrown far from the spot. IL was
also discovered that the explosion had Deen
attended with fatal results. An employe
named Patrick Farley (unmarried), OF
BROOKLYN, was struck in the body, and lit
