The BricJe. llakyns flntuiM The following important statistics in regard to the business ol briokmaking foe the present year, as it is carried oa about BUi-more, must prove interesting to our many readers, connected as it 13 with the prosrress and improvement of the city. The preparation ha? been careful and is as accurate as such a statement can be made. There are fifty-five brick yards about Baltimore, having a large fixed capital in improvement, sisting of kilns and sheds, and of tools for manufacturing, besides the capital employed to paV wages and other expenses of carrying on the business. The land upon which these brick-yard-? are erected is, in the best situations, at fifty ctnts for each thousand bricks made, and in other pla so eligible, at a somewhat less rent the who.

The following is the fifth annual report of the President and Directors: report: The Board again waits en the members of the Association with a synopsis of its actions during the year, pursuing simply the record of what ha3 been done or attempted, without entering the wide field of suggestion, which it is deemed would be irrelevant in a document of this character; reference must, however, be made, forthe sake of con-secutiveness, to the last report upon various subjects of interest, and among them that ef steam communication with our Atlantic ports, as well as trans-Atlantic marts. In this respect we have the satisfaction to know that regular lines of steamers have been established between Boston, New York and Philadelphia, sufficient apparently to meet the present wants of trade: but as regpWts an increase of our facilities of intsrcommunicStion with the -South, we cannot congratulate our selves, and as to a direct intercom se with Europe beyond the usual transport of heavy produce by sailing vessels no practical advance has been made. Referring to the ail important subject of our communications with the interior, it is most agreeable to advert to the gradual but steady increase in travel and transportation on the main artery the Baltimore and Ohio IiaiLroad and the general development of its vast usefulness to Baltimore; many extensions seem very desirable, which time will doubtless accomplish; among them one of evident advantage ha3 been brought to the consideration of the Board by a letter from a coram ittee of the citizens of Memphis, viz: From Parkersburg south ninety to one hundred miles to thence to Bowling Green and Lexington so to Memphis; connecting with most cf the Extended and important works of Kentucky and Tennessee.

On the route to Cincinnati the successful progress of the" Central Ohio Railroad may be alluded to with great pleasure, and thence further west of the Hillsborough Road leading to St. Louis. Of the Pittsburg and Connellsville Road we also receive gratifyii jeports, it3 advance steadily to completion and confirmed conviction that the promise of its inception will be abundantly fulfilled. Tlie prciect of a consolidation of a chain cf railroads within this State and Pennsylvania, extending from Ealtimore to Sunbury, viz: the "Baltimore and Susquehanna," from Baltimore to the borough of York, the "York and Cumberland," from York to Bridgeport: and the "Susquehanna," (unfinished) from Bridgeport to Sunbury. Having been formally brought before the board, this important subject was referred to the especial consideration of the committee on internal improvements, from whence emanated a very elaborate and able report, embracing every feature of the history and finance of each of the corporations named, and a resume which made it so apparent that the general benefit, not only of the several companies, but also of the city and State, would be promoted by the consolidation, that the requisite legislation was granted at Annapolis and in the ciry council.

It now only remains for the separate Roads to agree upon the terms on which they shall be united in order to secure the shortest and cheapest access to the coal fields of Pennsylvania, and thrrV William sport and Llmiraa pertion of the vast and rapidiy increasiBC trade of the Lakes; it being presumed that this combination effected, the means necessary finish the link between Bridge port and Sunbury would readily be obtainable. The Board has had occasion to approach the Legislature of the State through memorials and deputations of committees, and feel it a duty, as well as pleasuje, to express their gratitude for" the attentive ccnsiderationEfranted to these appeals on various occasions of impcirtance; it believes.howe-ver, that it but echoes the sentiments of the entire tracing and industrial classes of this citv in expressing great regret that on two points material to their convenience and prosperity their petitions have been of no avail. The Board refers in the fust place to the refusal to repeal the Stamp Act, a sruice of revenue now, happily, no longer necessary, and one in the amount received from it bearing. no proportion to the annoyance it occasions, to say nothing of it3 being esteemed peculiarly and onerously burthensome on Baltimore; we still cherish the hope that at the next session of the Legislature this most obnoxious lew will be re pealed. ine otner matter alluded to was the law reiru- lating legcl interest in the State of Maryland, and the opinion of the Board on this vital question may ue put naps uesi ciieu in me wcras oi tne resolutions adopted unanimously at a special meeting held 31 th January last, and" transmitted to the Senate and House of Delerates.

viz: Rexohtd, That in the judgment of this Board any legislation enacting penalties, other than merely nominal, lor lenaing or Dorrowing money at a higher rate of interest than six per cent, per annum, is calculated to injure the business of our btate, as it would directly tend to drive capital out of the State of Maryland to other States, where a more enlightened policy permits its free employment without any such onerous restrictions. Aesoivea, mat it is the unanimous opinion of this Board that it is more to the advantage of the borrower than the lender, that all restrictions be re moved as to the rate of interest. exceDt in book ac counts, or in the absence of special contracts; as the ingress of foreign capital, thus unrestricted, would necessarily exercise a wholesome check on tne rate oi interest anu equalise the vaiue of money nere. witn neignnoring markets. L.et us trust that tne policy of free trade in Eioney, as merchandise, of which, it is only the representative value, may ere long find favor with our legislators, and that in following the example of all our wealthiest and most industrious States, tney win not impose enactments as its employment which but serve to make the '-'rich richer.

and the poor poorer." The modifications of the laws regulating in spections, it is believed, have proved beneficial in practice, and satisfactory to both buyer and seller, in an tne Drancnes aneciea oy mem. The Board would now touch upon that most important of all objects involving the prosperity of this city the improvement of our ship channel and it is a subject of congratulation that so far as the limited means at the command of those in charge of this work permit, it has progressed as favorably during the past year as could have been expected. The city has now in operation two steam dvedges, with nine lighters and a steamer for towing; the United States government one steam dredge and five lighters, all working in harmony. Massy obstructions have been removed and a considerable average depth of water gained throughout the channel, proving conclusively the feasibility of obtaining and maintaining an ample draught of waver lor tne passage of nrst-class ships. It hut re-quirts pecuniary means to accomplish this end.

ine eoramiuceoi congress navmg cnarge oi ine river and harbor bill, at the last session recogniz ing its importance on national frrounas'embodied therein an appropriation of one hundred thousand dollars to improve the navigation of the Chesa peake, which sum would materially have aided and expedited the completion of this labor; it is unnecessary to say that the veto of the President nullified the hope of further present assistance from tlie General Government, and we must eke out to best advantage our former limited resources. In conclusion, reference is asked far information as to the finances of the association to the report of the treasurer herewith, and all i3 respectfully suDDUucu. jjyorueroi tne Doara, John C.

The Galveston papers are filled with accounts of the damage by the storm which commenced there on the 17th and' for three days. On the 18th the tide took a clear sweep across the island. The merchants on the strand, and up as far as Market street, suffered much loss from the damaging of their goods by the water. An immense quantity of rain fell. It is thought the shipping escaped uninjured.

The yellow fever had greatly abated at Galveston, but there is still a number of destitute sick, besides many widows and orphans, almost in want. The disease naa aiso appearea at nuumuu, wucicuuco deaths had occurred. At Matagorda, persons com ing from infected cities are quarantined ten days.

Every afternoon Professor Vollandt's band is engaged, and at night Professor Holland's Independent Blues' Band. We continue our notices. Upon entering the room, among the first ar-articles to be observed, will be seen the cases of instruments, made by C. C. Reinhardt Co.

of this city. The case of dental instruments, contains as fine a display as we have ever seen in that line. The top tray in the case has two dozen sealers and plungers, with pearl handles and gold mounted, with, mirror, mantel similarly mounted. The lower tray has an assortment of Dr. Harris' improved forceps, improved drill3, The side drawers contain every description of ivory and pearl handled instruments, with gold ferrules.

The case contaiEing this beautiful and costly coUection is a rich one, made of ebony, mounted with German silver in a substantial manner. To look at the it would seem as if they were designed to make tooth drawing, a luxury. In another case deposited by the same firm their own make, containing a variety of surgical instruments, may be seen a set designed for amputation, embracing all the necessary instruments for that purpose, with ivory and pearl handles mounted with geld and Bilver. There i3 also here a new invention "to secure a broken jaw; by applying the parts can be retained in their places, and the patient may take his meals with the smallest amount of pain. There is also here fracture ap-paiatus, Also, the patent glass pad, double and single lever truss cf all sizes, which has the highest reputation for efficiency.

Altogether thi3 df posit is a most curious and valuable one, and attracts attention. The machinery department is now in perfect runing order, under the charge of Mr. James Cur-ran, the superintendent. In addition to those already named, there has been deposited one of Jenkins Knight's patentspoke machines, which capable of turning spokes from the rough wood, cf all sizes and of any form, oval or taper, at the rate of two hundred an hour. It is a curious affair.

Messrs. Shriver Broth the Fulton Works, Cumberland, have two handsome lathes, one of which has the screw feed far cutting screws. Also, a drill pres3, pronounced a fir3t rate article. J. A.

Fay of Norwich, have a variety cf articles, including a tenconing machine, double cutters and boring shaft; a sash and moulding machine, large size; improved scroll saw; different machines for making blinds; mortising machines, all of which go to make up the saving labor. Mr. John Parshly, of this city, has a power planer for planing iron, which does the work apparently as easy as if it was wood. The table is worked by a step, or double rack, which gives it a steady motion. He also has an upright drill, calculated for all kinds of iron and steel work.

Also, an engine lathe, a finished article. The lathes are six feet shears, four feet between centres, fifteen inch swing, have back and screw gear, and overhead reversing pulley with cast-steel arbors, gib rest with screw feed instead cf chain or rack. The tool rest, also, if so airantred that the tool can be adjusted to any ptiut the work may require without unfastiEH.g. There are also on deposit three of Harrison's patent flour and grain miDs, which appeared to do their work most exceedingly well. They claim to be supeiior to any other in durability, compactness, economy of power, in being easily kept in order, and in not heating the flower or meaL Millers are however, the oest judges of these machinery.

J. Montgomery, of this city, have hand what they call a doti Lie-screen rockaway whi'at-fan, which has before made it3 appearance in our fairs and taken premiums. King has one of his railway washing machines, which is claimed to be superior to any in use for speed and efficiency. Mr. J.

P. Shannon has something new in the pump line, being; Pulley's patent bucket pump. It appears to work like a charm. I.rr. Franklin L.

Bates, of this city, has deposited one of his labor-saving machines for warehouse purposes. The most important is the patent hoisting machine. These are easy to work, simple and strong, and not liable to get but of order, and are perfectly safe in their operation. They have the preference in the State tobacco warehouses in our city, besides in ether warehouses, which is some proof of their superiority. Mr.

Wendell Boll man has a model of patent railway bridge, the same we believe that was exhibited at the World's Fair, and proved its ability to bear a great weigfct. The glass blower, Professor Woodroffe, has a factory at work, upon which i3 constantly, engaged manufacturing glass trinkets of various kinds. He Las here a curiosity in the shape of a glass steam engine, which, though not a perfect engine, is regularly at work, steam being genera: ted by a spirit lamp. He generally has a crowd around him The beard of managers of the Metropolitan In-stitmte, Washington city, will attend the Fair on Thursday. The day ha3 not yet been fixed for the annual address, to be delivered by Charles II.

Pitts, Esq. Overboard. About dark on Sunday evening. .13 the Locust Point ferry-boat approached this side, two men, rather the worse for liquor, made a spring from the boat to the wharf, but not measuring their distance veil, overboard they went immediately nnder the bow of the boat, and so confined in the pen, as every one thouzht, they must inevitably drown, particularly as they were locked arms. Luckily they separated, and one caught the wheel of" the boat and held on, while the other floundered until he caught a rope which reached him.

They were in the water some fifteen minutes, the exertions of Capt. Bradenhouse and others in getting a small boat, they were rescued. The latter was very near gone, and mean3 were used to restore hiirt. They went off' without giving their names. They should have looked welTbefore they leaped.

As it was, they made a very narrow escape. Inquest. Coroner Stevens on Sunday night was called to the house of a colored woman, in Forest street, near Madison, to hold an inquest on the body of a colored man, aged about fifty years, named Frederick Smith, wlio had died suddenly. It appears from the evidence of a woman, the only person in the house, and which bears a questionable character, that the deceased, who was married and liyed in the western part ef the city, came to her house early on Sundav morning and" ate hi3 breakfast, of which oysters formed a part. After a time he complained of being sick, and went to a room by himself, where he was afterwards found dead.

The jury rendered a verdict of death from natural causes and a want ef medical attendance. Declinations. It was published a week since that the authorities of Christ Church, corner of Gay and ayetce streets, had elected Kev. Dr. Brooke, of the Church of the Ascension, Rector, and Rey.

C. H. Bolton, Assistant Rector of 'that charge. The official announcement was made to these gentlemen, and after a brief consideration, they oeciined to accept the call. The congrega tion will find it very cilncult to obtain sucn a Pastor a3 the Rev.

Dr. Johns, who has served them so faithfully almost ever since the church was built: A Lively City. Baltimore now seems more lively and gay than it has for a full year, in consequence in part of the great numoer of strangers who are now spending a few days at the various hotels and boarding houses. Thus far, all have been well accommodated, and no doubt, the ex tensive arrangements of our hotel proprietors as well as the proverbial hospitality of the citizens will be sufficient to provide comfortably for all who may visit us. The Hort icultural Exhibition.

Amo ng the many sources of attraction in our city the exhibition of the Horticultural Society must not be forgotten. It commences at 10 o'clock to-morrow morning, and will continue for three days. A band of music will be in attendance every evening.

BALTIMORE, THE SUN. 1 Cattle Show and Agricultural Fair. Hie return of the autumnal season brings with it that welcome event we have named above, and which for several yeara past has been anticipated by the citizens of Baltimore, and the people of the State at large, with much satisfaction.

Nor is this feeling confined to the State of Maryland, for multi tudes of our fellow citizens from adjacent and even remote States ef the Union have heretofore participated with our own people in the general pleasure and hilarity of the occasion. Since the inauguration of these serviceable adjuncts to the development of the agricultural interests of our State, many of us have learned to appreciate them as not less important within a much more amplified range of effect. The recurrence of this annua exhibition inspires the whole community with an appreciative sense of agricultural affairs. It' brings within the survey of the residents of, the city, the general scope of activeindustry, its purposes, agencies and productive results. And thus establishes the intimate relation between the interests of the country and the city, the producer and the consumer.

Incidental to all this, the city realizes a remunerative effect, in the great number of people who are attracted to the city by the combined influence of the Agricultural Fair and the Fair of the Mary-lane Insdtute; and these guests of a few days come prepared to make their purchases for the winter, and thus the trade of the city experiences a sensi-ple activity on such an occasion, and mutual advantages are interchanged between the city and country, as a necessary result. The benefits which have been diffused throughout the agricultural interests of the State have' been manifest to observing men from an early period of the Society's operations; and these recurring exhibitions sum up the testimony, year after year, and substantiate the fact before "many witnesses." The improvement in stock, iH manuring, in the use of implements, the system of culture of different products, the general management cf the farm, the barn-yard, the dairy, the garden, and all that pertain3 to rural life, is a confessed result, not only of our State Fair, but of all contemporary institutions. "Who ought to visit the Fair?" has been a question with some, involving an issue of propriety. Others tave never yet been present on such an occasion, for the want of interest in the display. "What" is thereto see?" is vacantly demanded-To such inquirers we can only say, remove all scruples and doubts on the score of delicacy or interest by a single visit.

We have met upon the grourd our most esteemed citizens, their wives and sons and daughters. We have seen staid business men, who had perhaps doubted if there was anything to see, all animation and delight, moving from place to place with wonderful alacrity, they should not see all that was to be seen, and taxing their energies "against time." All classes of the people, all ages and both sexes will find much to requite them for a healthful stroll ever the grounds, and none will return to ask the question peevishly, "What is there to see at an Agricultural Fair A publication from Mr. Charles B. Calvert, the very efficient President of the Society, is before us, and its purport has a claim upon the attention of this community. Mr.

Calvert appeals to the citizens of Baltimore in behalf of the Society. He refers us to the fact that Maryland was one of th pioneers in agricultural exhibitions, a just provo. cative to our pride in the premises. He alludes, pertinently, to the good service which ha3 been done by the Institution, as we have spoken above, and then presents to us the fact that the Society has for years struggled against adversity; and, though we have seen it always with its liberal cheerful aspect turned towards us, he tells us that it "has been dragging along a miserable existence for seven years, for want of funds, and is now in debt!" How will the citizens of Baltimore respond to such an appeal? We have heretofore appealed in this behalf, and we know that many have enrolled their names amongst the membership. They have now some authentic fact3 from headquarters, and let us take occasion to second this appeal of Mr.

Calveit. The Society should be liberally sustained. He iefers us to the spirited support of similar institutions elsewhere, of the familiar identification of the people with them, and closes with the following remarkSjWhich we press upon the most seriou3 consideration of our readers: Why is it that Baltimore is so far behind any-other city of the Union in the encsuragement of these exhibitions? She has not given hundreds, where other cities, not a fourth her population, have given thousands to sustain their agricultural societies. Lock at Richmond, Petersburg and Macon, and all the variuos towns and villages where these exhibitions are held, and ask yourselves whether we have rereived the same liberality. Philadelphia, which has always been considered as haid to move, has fallen into line, and for four days of last week poured forth, her population to the State Fair, and most of those who went became mc-Bsbers of the society.

It is not possible that the citizens of Baltimore are so blinded to their true interests as not to see the importance of sustaining this society; and their want of encouragement, heretofore, must have been caused by their over-looking the fact that tueir lunds are necessary to sustain these kind of enterprises, and I therefore conclude by entreating you to show your appreciation of our efforts by giving us that "material aid" which will alone enable us to increase, our usefulness, and, in truth, prevent our downfall. Yours, Chas. B. Calvebt.

Council of Bishops in New York. The first council that has ever been convened in the province of New York of the Koman Catholic Bishops, theologians and heads of religious orders, of the Arch-Diocese, assembled in New York city on Sunday morning, and attracted a large assemblage. A procession of the clergy was formed at the Arch, bishop's house, and proceeded to the Cathedral, where, after prelimary religious services, Bishop Hughes delivered an impressive discourse, in the course of which he strongly urged the practice of charity, forbearance and neighborly love. We quote the following paragraph: 'It is not to be disgnised that if charity be at aU times an obligation, and if at all times we are bound to bear with patience injuries from others for God's sake; and if at all times we are bound to love cur enemies, there are at this particular time reasons why you should impress more and moe deeply in your hearts the importance of this divine obligation imposed upon you by your Saviour. And what are those reasons? Why, the reasons are that not only as individuals, when any cf your number trangresses the law, but as a whole body you are held accountable.

reasons are that you are denounced, and that it is hard for human weakness to bear reproaches on the most delicate topics that can arouse the resentment of man that you are denounced as being uciit, on account of y. religion, to enjoy the privilege'? of the country you inhabit. "You are denounced because liiose principles of faith and religion which you profess are said to be adverse to the spirit and genius of the institutions of this country. denunciations are such that even on the Sunday you can hardly pass from one portion of the city to another without coming within the reach of some living voice that is sustained in those denunciations, as if you had not the right to walk the public street3 without being reduced to the necessity of hearing insult, to the stirring up of tke proud spirit of men who take their model from the standard of liberty that exists this countrv. wen, lor that reason, tne lore necessity of charity, the more necessity of patience, the more necessity for you to avoid eveiy thing offensive.

Propagate among those whom you know, as a principle of relioiori, to avoid everything which can disturb the peace and order of society, or vindicate the liws of the country." The buf iness of the Council, it is stated, will be transacted in private. Affaibs in (Jaeolixe County. We copy the following from the Denton, (Md.) Journal. Horrible Murder. On Wednesday evening last, abnut 8 o'clock, Mr.

Wm. H. Butler, residing two mile3 from Burs ville, in this county, was called cut of bed by David Thomas, a free" negro; some conversation took place at the door between them, after which they proceeded together to the road gate, a short distance from the house, and having passed through the gate into the public road, Thomas dealt Mr. Butler a blow on the hea with a heavy musket, which felled tint insensible to the ground, and which produced death in about three hours. Mrs.

Butler, who was standing in the door, heard the blow and the struggles of her husband, 'and immediately ran for some of the neighbors Thomas in the meantime making off. Two ghastly wounds were inflicted by the blow, (supposed to have been done with the lock of the sun,) one just below the left eyp, near the nose, which ex- tenaea tnrougn into tne nostril, cue omcr aoout one and a half inches above the left eye, where the skull was horribly crushed, and the membrane of the brain slightly "lacerated.

The Ame rican Colonization Society lately issued a special appeal to four hundred and twenty-six of its friends, asking them to give $10 each, makingin all $4,260, the amount needed to colonize sixty-three slaves and eight free people connected with them by marriage, belonging to the Rev. Mr. Herndon and family, of Fauquier county, Va.

This appeal, the Society announces, has met with a most liberal response, three hundred and thirty-seven persons having remitted 18, just $2,005 13 more than tne original amount asked lor. Alter tne appeal was issued, however, the Society had offered for colonization fifty-eisht more slaves, belong ing to persons in Virginia, North Carolina, and Georgia, who were very anxious that they should sail in the November vessel. To colonize these requires $60 each, making $3,430. It is proposed, tnereiore, to aevote tne Daiance oi is, now on hand, to this purpose, and the remainder, it is expected, wiU be made up by such of the four hundied and twenty-six friends, originally appealed to, as have not vet been heard from, or by such otner ineitu oi as may muut proper to contriouie lor tne purpose. The Epidemic at the South During the week ending the 24th there were 504 deaths in New Orleans, of which number 341 were from yellow fever.

At Mobile, during the same week, theie were 3d deaths, including 7 from yellow fever. The Vicksburg Whig of the 19th ultimo, says there have been 30 cases of vellow fever in that place, and that many of the citizens are leaving. At Savannah, Mrs. S. Burroughs has fallen a victim to the epidemic, making the seventh inemoer oi mat iamuy who died ot tne disease within a few weeks.

Of eight or nine members of the editorial corps in Savannah when the disease broke out, only one, Mr. Hilton, (the editor of the Georgian) remains. He had a severe attack, but recovered. Mr, Chapman, of the Courier, is dead. Mr.

Thompson, (formerly of Baltimore) of the News, and Mr. Alexander, of the Republican, have recovered from severe attacks, and have gone to the country. Mr. Punch, also of the Georgian, was compelled to leave on account of sickness in his family. Others were absent when the disease broke out, and have prudently kept away.
