This difficulty hes caused much «delay in ending forward the repoft to the State Legis- Jature; and so dissatisfied is one of the commissioners with the way im whioh the institution has been gevern- -e4, both by the managers in the offiee in the Park and on Ward's Island, that he has resigned, though the Go- ‘vernor has not yet acoepted his resignation; and the Femslnder of the Board are much opposed to it, know. ‘ing him to be, as he is, their most valuable men—in ‘fact, the life ‘and soul of the institution.

It becomes @ cerious question whether the emigrants and society at large would be in a worse condition if there were no refuge at all, than with the present apology for one.

As most of our readers are aware, the Supreme Court nally adjudged the seve- ral lews of New York on the subject of taxing the ship- owners for the emigrants conveyed in their vessels, as unconstitutional end invalid, the cegislature of 1849 prooeeded to # revision of the system, and passed a law on the 11th of April, by which the decision wes sub- stantially evaded. This law compels shipowners and captains of verscls to give bonds and securities for each passenger, that they will not bea burchen upon this community; but to avoid the expense and trouble ‘of this, they pay instead commutation money of $1 60 per head.
