The destination of the majority of the Germans is for the great western prairies; so with the Dane, Swede, Welsh. Norwegian and Polander, and a portion of the Italian; but the English, Irish, French, Spanish and Chinese fill up our seaboard towns. It is said by those engaged for many years in the emigrant business that of all pauper classes who arrive at our shores the English is the most abject and degraded, and the majority of the poorer classes seldom leave the seaboard states unless transported by private arrangement, or by agents of the Commission. DESTINATIONS. The following table will give an idea whither the tide of emigration flowing into the country tends. It is taken from the report of the Commissioners of last year, ending January, 1867 : The above number is one thousand less than the total report of 1866 gives credit for, but it will answer as a criterion by which to judge of the influx and dispersion of the westward bound thousands that yearly enter our country. The majority of those remaining in New York is from Ireland. THE WARD'S ISLAND HOSPITAL. One of the best hospitals in the world is that erected on Ward's Island, connected with the Castle Garden establishment. It was planned by Jonn W. Ritch, and has been pronounced as among the most perfect models of hospital construction. The amount expended for the buildings of the hospital was $187,373 19. The report says that the number of inmates, whether diseased in the hospital or infirm and helpless in the other depart ment during the year was 10,306, being 2,881 more than in 1865, and 5,395 more than in the year preceding. The average number at any one time was about 1,081. The net cost of support of the Emigrant Hospita was $142,749 35, being $13,543 98 more than in 1865, $26,726 64 more than 1864, $75,695 21 more than in 1863, $96,604 95 more than in 1862, $87,507 14 more than in 1861, $83,835 94 more than in 1860, and $87,858 95 more than in 1859. During the first month of the present year it averaged $1,182, and is at the present about $1,700. The following summary gives the aggregate results of the practice, both medical and surgical, during 1866: Cared for in hospital during 1866 (including 647 remaining on 1st January, 1866,) together with 488 births... Number discharged, cured or relieved. Number died Number remaining at the end of the year.......... ..... 6,829 5,468 788 573 The whole of the institutions under the supervision of the Board of Emigration are yearly becoming more extensive; and this bureau, it will be observed, is to-day one of the largest in the country. Its efforts are in every way commendable for the good already accomplished. IMMIGRATION THIS YEAR. The emigration during the present year is somewhat in excess of last year. From January to August 21st, 1867, we have as follows: The following is the total amount for each month up to August 21, 1867: RAILROAD EARNINGS FOR JULY.
