Was in the next house, Annual Report of the Jail. the annual report of the board of visitors of the jail has been made, showing the condition of that institution during the past year. In consequence of the necessity to employ" additional guards during the confinement of those condemned to death, and also an additional gate guard while the new jail was in process of construction, all of whom had to be paid out of the annual appropriation, the general expenses were larger than usual.

The report states that the removal of prisoners to Towson-town had to be provided for out of the same fund, while the committal of prisoners was lar-g by 5 1-12 per day than during the preceding year, without a corresponding increase of jau fees. The continual increase of prisoners, and the additional expense required to conduct the new jail, compels the board to ask an appropriation of $20,000 to meet the expenses of the current year. The tables prepared by the warden, Capt.Thos. C. James, show that during the year 5,503 prison-oners were received, of whom 1,786 were on peace warrants, 460 for felonies, 379 for assault and battery, 168 for assault with intent to kill, 104 for violating city ordinances, 101 runaways, 1.925 for drunkenness, and 33 for murder, besides other offenses making up the total.

Of those committed, 43 white men, 2 white women and 3 white boys were convicted and. sent to the penitentiary; 20 white men, 2 white women, 5 white boys, 6 colored men and 3 colored women were transferred to the countv jail, having removed their trials to Towsontown. Five white boys were sent to the kouse of refuge; 3 colored men and 2 coloredjwo-men were sold by order of the Criminal Court; 4 white men were pardoned by the Governor; 4 white men died in jail; 5,249 were discharged by the courts and magistrates leaving in jail at the clcse of the fiscal year, 135 The whole expenses for the year were $21,990 22. In the oakum department the net profit for the year was only The report of Dr. E.

S. Thomas, the'physician, shows that 842 cases of sickness were treated during the year, most of which resulted from dissipation. But four deaths occurred, two of which were from mania a potu, one from dropsy and one from swallowing etherial oil. During the year the prison was free from epidemics and contagion. Attempt to Murder Friday night last several of the members of the House of Delegates visited this city, some of whom stopped at the Fountain Hotel.

About eleven o'clock at night one of those at that hotel was taken suddenly ill, when Dr. Goldsborough, one of the members from Caroline, and George H. Morgan, delegate from St Mary's, and chairman of the committee on elections in the House of Delegates, went to the drug store at the corner of St. Paul and Fayette streets for the purpose of procuring Borne medicine. WThile they were waiting for admission, a crowd of ruffians passed up Fayette street, intruded upon these gentlemen, and and one of the party said if they wanted a doctor he would serve them.

No notice was taken of the impertinence, and after a few moments the party started up St. Paul street. As soon as they reachtd the sidewalk on the opposite side, one of the crowd remarked that he had a doctor for tbem, and fired three discharges from a revolver at Dr. H. and Mr.

M. The delegates immediately left the spot and returned to their hotel, where an officer was jund who returned with them to the drug store, but the assailants had left. One of the balls discharged at them struck the house near where they were standing. Such conduct shows tht Baltimore dees not improve as rapidly in morals as is desirable. A Handsome Vessel.

Another Shooting Case. Last evening a young man named John alias Gunny Robinson was shot in an altercation by another, named Wm. Stone, on Cross street, near Johnson, South Baltimore. The dispute originated about a hat. The ball from the pistol entered Robinson's left thigh from behind, and came out at the front.

Robinson was removed to his home on Cross street, between ohnson and Washington, where he was attended by Dr. Geo. W. Benson. Lieut.

Lippey and officer lnsco, of the southern district, went in pursuit of Stone, and arrested him in a drinking-house on Crois street. He was locked up for a hearing this morning. Stone admits the shooting, but says It was accidental, while Robinson declares it wss intentional on the part of Stone. Robinson's wound is not regarded as fatal.

As a preliminary matter, however, he remarked that It had been charged that the present agitation was lue to the action of the democratic party.

He thought they ought to be entirely exonerated from this charge, and declared that their action had teen statesmanlike and patriotic. But why should we seek to deceive ourselves by crying "peace," when there Is no peace? Wfc.en a dark and rapidly approaching cloud covers half of the heavens, and the muttetings of the thunder and the wall cf the storm are heard ia the distance, he wowld Tte an inexperienced mariner who should fall to take warning and seek refuge. The South had "been censured because they did not hold meetings and testify their devotion to the Union. But when a country is invaded, do the inhabi- tants get together and pass resolutions in favor of peace? Demosthenies was denounced as a political agitator in the days ef Philip because he warntd his countrymen of approaching daner. If those on the other side of the chamber would adopt such resolutions it would be well; but they only treat them with derision.

This abolition movement at first was very insignificant hen an abolition society was first formed in Boston, it was so feeble that the member of Congress from that district refused to answer its in--quiries.

Mr. Underwood indulged the hope hU by this debate the people of the South haa been aroused to their true position in the Union, and have become fully acquainted with the ends and aims of the enemies of ifce republic. It would be neither truthful, profitable nor just to speak of the republicans otherwise than as the abolition pirty, which ie regarded as utterly unmindful of their constitutional obligations. lie gave a brief history of the slavery agitation, speaking rot as a Southern man.

This republican rr abolition party had faithfully followed the ad viceof Senator Seward, who had proclaim, ed the "higher law" against the Uvea and interests of the South. In the course cf his remarks he declared that he wasted a united South, for the South demanded nothing to wh'rh they are not entitled. While they Ere not united tney become a prey to their enemies. As a further argument, he said that if the South had ben united the bill for the admission of ISto the Union would have been passed, and a sufiieient number of democrats tlected to the House to have organized this gave as his opinion that the democratic party Is the hope cf the country.

Mr. Hill, having been engaged In a coloquy with his colleague, said the new Union party was predicated cnthe good serse of the American people, for the of all the laws. Mr. Underwood replied that he would not break down a ccES'itutionii party at the North to build'' rp a tew party. Mr.

The dealings in Government and State stocks at New York, on Saturday, were larger than for some days past, without important changes, however, except in United States 6s, (Texas indemnity,) which suffered a further decline of 1 per cent under free supplies, selling down to 93 at the first board, but closing a fraction better in the afternoon. The supplies of this stock recently appear to have come from Texas Railroad companies.

The New York Tribune of yesterday saysi "Treasury notes are again piessing on tha market, and the 6 per cents have been sold at a small discount. There is a fair demand for them at per cent discount. The money market showed marked relief on Saturday, especially on call. The supply of capital seeking employment in call loans is quite equal to the demand, at 7 per cent, and late in the day loans could have been had at 6 per cent on favorite collaterals. Paper was in better demand, and the rates show an improvement ef about per cent from the extreme rates of the week.

The banks, however, do not appear to experience much relief, and the bank figures on Monday (yesterday) will probably show a farther contraction of loans."

BERRY'S PATENT COAL-SAVIIiQ TVYERE IRONS. Among the prominent advantages attending the use of these Irons may be reckoned their durability, great economy in the SAVING OF COAL, and the facility with which the size of the fire can be changed to suit the work. We give two testimonials of their excellence, selected from a large number in our possession: Baltimore, Nov. 22, 1859. Having had one of Berry's Patent Tuyere Irons In use for some time, I have no hesitation in saying that it is the best article for the purpose I have ever seen, as it enables me to do more work in the same space of time, and at much less eost, than any others, John Foley, At Jackson's Coach Factory, 41 South Paca street.

Baltimore, Deo. 1859. I have been using for some weeks past, one of Berry's Patent Tuyere Irons, and consider it the vest tn use. It keeps a much cleaner fire than any other, and, from my present experience, I believe it saves one-half the coal. Thos.

Meanwhile the body of the victim, Mrs. Dann, remained at the house, which was barricaded throughout the entire day and evening with a curious crowd, who contented themselves with examining the premises, and remarking the blood which bespattered the front of the house from the wli.dow-sill where the shot was fired, dowh to the pavement.

Republican Effort to Organize the House The Discussion in Congress and the Conservative Element of the Country TXree Northern States for the Democracy The Forthcoming Agricultural Report Appointment, fc. It appears that efforts are to be made during the week to organize the House in the Interests of the republican party. This cannot be done through the adoption of the plurality rule. All hope of the adoption of that rule was dissipated last Friday, though it is quite certain that were the question to be taken by the House on the rule it would be adopted To obtain a majority vote for Mr Sherman will not be very easy, though it has been asserted by his friends that he really wants but one two or three more be-iosr in readiness. The discussions of the political condition of the country tbat have taken place ia the House have had a good effect upon northern sentiment.

They have combined the conservative elements of the most Intelligent and active northern conservatives to a sense of their own duties to the country, and ltd them to take measure for the suppression of fanatical hostility to southern Institutions. It is a great mistake to suppose that the republicans are in a large majority in the northern States. Their aggregate plurality in all the northern States is only eighty-one thousand, being an increase of only eighteen thousand since 135G, when Mr. Buchanan was elected. Advices from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York and Connecticut.

show that those States will all go-for the democratic nominee next November. A convention of all the manufacturers and mechanics of Connecticut is to be held for the purpose of exertirg their combined influence against the anti-slavery frenzy threatens to destroy their trade. The forthcoming report from the agricultural division of the Patent Office will be unusually interesting, as it embraces a number ef essays from able pens on important subjects. The article on fertilizers by Air. Clemson, is said to be very excellent.

An article on the Agricultural Division of the Patent Office shows what it is and what it ought be. There are several useful articles cn grasses. An article on forest trees is designed to call attention to the necessity of preserving and increasing our forest timber. Articles on the veterinary art a subject little attended to In this.country are worthy of careful consideration. I learn that Mr.

Clemson, of has accepted the post of chief of the agricultural division, and will soon assume its duties. Ion Correspondence of the Baltimore Sua. Washington, Jan. 15. The Railroad Capitation Tax Payments at the Postojjice Department Corporation Finances jnertea Colonization Socxety National Agricultural Exhibition Dr Ryder's Remains.

It is understood that the mayor of Washington Is preparing a message to be laid before the councils this evening on the subject of the capitation tax paid by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company to the State of Maryland for every traveler who passes between the national capital and that State. This action on the part of our executive is highly commendable, for It represents important interests, not only of the inhabitants of Washington, Georgetown and Alexandria, but of your own State, to say nothing of the general principle on which the whole people basi their right of passage from one section to another, without payir.g mere tribute in any quarter. Since the passage of the capitation law, it may well be assumed that the white population of this city has been those of our two sister cities have increased very largely. In Maryland the increase has doubtless been eaually as great, comparatively. No one who voted for that bill ever dreamed that before the year 1360 the tax between the Washington Junction and Washington city, in one year, would amount to nearly and S8.600 more between the Junction and Baltimore.

Receipts will be given in each case, and payments mads according to the date of filing, at the earliest day after the money shall have been appropriated by Congress During the quarter which ended the 3lst December, the postage stamps transmitted from the department to the postmasters throughout the Union amounted to SI stamped envelopss fer the same period. 49. In reply to a resolution of the board of aldermen, the 'mayor this evening sends in the account of the bank with the corporation of Washington.

Add esses are expected from the Right Rev Bishop Payne, from Africa; Rev. Dr. Cummins and Hon.
