Tbe Commissioners then go onto givea full | description of their labors and rosponsibilities, and al- lude to the great benefits accruing to the emigrants from the system by being protected and advised as to bis (uture residence and mode of travel. Since May,1847, to the elose of 1876 the number of alien emigrants arriving at the pors of New York was 2,808, of which number there were 547,209 cared for at the institutions under the control of the Board, besides 485,669 temporarily cared for. Thero were 400, 187 provided with employmeni, 58,122 forwarded to destination or returned to Kurope at thoir own re- quest, and there were 226,651 relieved in various coun- ties in the State, The importance of some such sys_ tem was clearly pointed out and supported by many facts and figuros of great interest and value. As an appendage to the memorial the Commissiovers presented a copy of an act to regulate immigration, which they trust will receive attention in both branches of Congress, This bil) stipulates that masters orcommanders of ships arriving at avy port in the United States, shall make a report in writing and on oath, giv mes, ages, birth, occupation and other | information of every emigrant passenger om board, and also the names of those who have died on the | voyage, under a penalty of $75. Also that the Treas- | ury Department shall have authority to designate the ports to which the established lines of vessels shall bring such emigrants 18 is also provided that the sum of $2 shall be paid by the vessel owners for each alien passenger, as an indemnity against any expense to the State in which the emigrant may arrive, Section 8 stipulates :— Thai it shall not bo lawfal for any ship or vessel, or the master, commander, owner or consignee thereof to bring into and land at, or permit to be brought into or Janded at, any port or place within the United states any pergon oP persons, passenger or passengers from any country out of the United States who within one year trom the time of his or her arrival had been im- prisoned in, or at, any jail or other place of imprison- | ment or restraint for other than political offences, or who had within the said time been convicted or pleaded guilty of any criminal offence not of a political character or who within six months tmme- diately previous to the time of such arrival had been the ipmate of eny lugatic asylum, poor house or other institution of a similar nature, or who had received public support or aid, or who at tho time of arrival was unable to support himself or herself, and was unaccompanied by, or who had not relatives ready, willing aud able to support him or her; but in case any person or passenger in thix section described shall bo on board of any such ship or vessel, he or she shail not be permitted to land, but shall be kopt on board until transferred ‘as hereinafter mentioned, or if not transferred, shall be taken back 1m and by such vessel on ber then next voyage to tne country from whieh bo or she may bi been brought, or shall be transferred to some other ship or vessel at the port or place, and to sail within ten days tor such last mentioned coantry, in and by | which vessel such person shall remain with- | out landing in the United States and be thus transierred, maintained and taken back | as aforesaid at the expense of the master, commander, owner and consignee respectively of the ship or vessel bringing such person or passenger.

It is also pro- vided that commissioners be appointed at tho several ports of entry for emigrants to perforin duties similar to the New York Board. This law, if passed, will, it is claimed, not only aid the emigrants, put prevent fraud and imposition onthe several States by the introduction of emigrants who are paupers and unable to maintain themselves, EX-GRCRETARY BRISTOW AND THR’ COMMITTEE ON WHISKEY FRAUDS. Ex-Seerotary Bristow was examined to-day by a sub- committee of the Committee on the Whiskey Frauds, Mr. Cochran, of Pennsylvania, the chairman, asked Mr. Bristow to tell the committee what he knew of the attitude of the President and Attorney General with reference to the prosecution ef the whiskey trials. Mr. Bristow declined to answer, saying, that as one of the constitational advisers of the President he was privileged to refuse answering the question; in refusing he did not mean that any inference prejudicial to any body should be drawn from his silence. He will be heard to-morrow by the full committee, to whom his claimed right of refusing to answer the ques- tion has been referred for consideration. GOVERNOR BAYES’ LETTER OP ACCEPTANCE.

THE ARMY AND THE INDIAN WAB IN CONGRESS, In the debato in the House to-day on the expense of the government Mr. Garfleld took Sunset Cox to task for a passage in his recent speech in the Democratic National Conveation at St. Lous. He eaid:— “When the gentleman goes to & great, ‘stormy’s popular Convention jd says that the army can be dis- pensed with until November next, and that the Indians can be got along with, he reminded the genuie- man of tne bieody news which came to-day of hundreds Mr. Randall (interrupting;—Why not use the troops that are now io the South instead of being on the fron- er? Mr. Garfield—And all this is done because the gen- tlemen want to make an impression until after the election is over, and then they wilicome in here and make up by deticiency bills all they have cost the pub- | le service by ruinous delays. In bis reply Mr. Cox said:—“And now you talk about the army, when Sheridan ig in Philadelphia rol Neking at the Centennial and when Custer tails in the wilderness. And you say you have not got troops enough. Where aro your 25,000 men? Three thousand of them are in Mississippi, Louwin- ja and = =other §=Southbern = Stati. What are they doing there?

Where does he want them and for what pur- pose? Does be want still to punish the eleven States ? Is it the purpose to carry the election im that way? ‘Then for another reason. Forty millions of people wi! understand why.’” pT ERE SS GENERAL WASHINGTON DESPATCH ES, ' WasuxGrox, Jaly 6, 1876, THE APPROPRIATIONS. The conference on the Legisiative and Executive Ap propriation bill heid a protracted session this morning, but failed to agree, and the bill will be reported to the two houses with recommendations that a new confer euce be appointed, One of the Senate members says that twe of the three House conferees squarely took the position to-day that the Senate must consent to the proposed changes im the law regarding salaries and the organization of the Civil Service, or else the House will refuse any and all ap- propriations for the several branches of the public service covered by the bill. The samo aathority states thot the Senate conferees offered to meet the House half way on the reduction of the force, and om other discretionary matters, and to leave all questions of a readjustment of salaries to tho next session after an investigation by a joint committee during the recess, the salaries thus agreed upon at the next sem sion to be retroactive to the commencement of the fiscal year, ‘These propositions being declined, and position assumed which the Senate conferees regard as coercive, the Conference terminated in a radical dis- agreement, and the prospects for an adjustment of the diflerences between the two Houses are now as dis- couraging as they have been at any time, THE CHINESE QUESTION. In tho Senate, to-day, Mr. Sargent, of California, 1m troduced the question of Chinese immigration, and alter along debate, it was agreed, on tho motion of Senator Morton, to appoint three Senators to invests gate the character, extent and effect of this immigra tion (o this country, the commities to have power t visit the Pacific coast, THE SECRETARYSHIP OF THE TREASURY.
