It will be found in another place. "We hare no space for a synopsis, or comment upon it this morning, and can only submit it to the perusal of our readers as it is.

Ckowded Oct. The length of the impor. taut correspondence between the President and the South Carolin i Commissioners, and the message of Major Brown, have crowded Out tfce letters of correspondents, and other matters of less importance. The Savings Ba-k op Baltimore. That old and tried institution, the leavings Bank of Baltimore, shows continued prosperity at the ndof the year 1SCP, and evidences of "further Usefulness in the future.

The amount of lands lield by the bank on the 31st December last, as the result of the steady produce of- deposi. tors, was 56,177,936 33, an increase of 63 on the sum held at the close of the pre-Tions year. The statement which we hare before noticed of the Eutaw" Savings Bank, shows also an increase in the funds of the past year of 130, 191 23. Thus, notwithstanding the depression of the times, the Savings Institutions have, to a fair extent, continued to be resorted to by the workms classes, with reference to accumulations for future advantage. The amount received from depositors by the Savings Bank of Baltimore during the last vear was 51, to which is added 06, derived from interest on loans dividends on stocks, tc, making 59 while the amount paid out to depositors during the same period was 40, with 12 for expenses, and 24 for taxes The accounts open with the bank on the 31s of December, 1S60, numbered an increase of 660 during the year.

Sj Telegraph for the Baltimore Sun. LATEST FRO 31 THE SOUTH. Sudden lUnest of a Minister in tha Pulpit. During the progress of the morning exercises, in St. Stephen's P.

E. Church, Hanover street? on Sunday morning, the rector, Rev. James McCabe, D. after reading the litany, was proceeding to rehearse the first Psalm, when, raiting bis hand to his head, and his eyes to the choir gallery, he fell suddenly from the reading desk to the floor, to the great alarm and consternation of the congregation, who thought him dead. Several gentlemen nearest the pulpit carried the rector into the robing room, and Drs.

Baltzell and Kloman were soon in attendance upon him. In a few minutes consciousness returned, when he was conveyed to his residence in the vicinity. Dr. McCabe had been unwell, and his prostration is supposed to have been produced by an attack of epilepsy. Ferociovt Assault At an early hour yesterday morniBB policeman Gorman arrested Martin Mullan, on the charge of attempting to bite off the under lip of John Agan.

It appeared before the magistrate that the parties named, with others, were playing cards at a house on Front street, near Bath, when Agan accused Mullaa of cheating him. The result of the accusation was a quarrel and assault, in which MulUn got hold of the lip of Agan with his teeth and bit it nearly off. The policeman was near at the time, and took the whole party to the police station. Mullaa was committed for trial by Justice Hiss, and Francis Maguire and John Henly, who were of the party, were committed as witnesses, as was also Agan, after his wound was dressed by Dr. Morgan.

Passage of United States Troops. Yesterday aftencoon a detachment of sixty-two United States troops (artillery men) arrived in this city over the Northern Central railroad, from Carlisle barracks, Pa. They were in ehaige of Lieut. R. Jones, and carried sabres only.

The troops were- ignoTant of their destination until they reached this city, when their commander received orders to proceed to Harper's Ferry, whither they go, it Is understood, to guard the arsenal and other government works at that place. The troops left in the 4 o'clock Western train for tbat point. Another squad of marines came from Philadelphia on Sunday, and went on to Washington the same day. Oittrage. "While divine service was progresses in the Eutaw M.

E. church on Sunday morning, a stone was thrown violently through tbe window over the pulpit. The minister was officiating at the desk at the time, in the range of the missile, and but for the heavy Ve-netion blind, which stayed its progress, he would have been dealt a severe blow. The crashing of the glass startled both the congregation and minister. The miscreant, whoever he was, escaped.

A series of resolutions were adopted, nearly unanimously, declaring that the institutions of the slaveholding States ought to be maintained at every hazard, and to the last extremity; that we view the personal lib erty bills passed for the purpose of defeating the execution of the fugitive slave law as palpable infractions of the constitution, and that we insist on their speedy repeal, and the faithful execution of said law, as a condition to the restoration of fraternal relations: that it is our ardent desire to preserve the Union, if it can be preserved consistently with the honor, rights and interests of the slaveholding States, arid fav.r a conference of the slaveholding States at Nashvilb, and if need be a convention of all the States; tbat in the event ot a failure by the Sonh to obtain such a guaranty of their rights in the Union as may be compatible with its honor and interests, they then insist upon an equitable division of the public property and the public debt; and if this cannot be obtained they will separate from their northern confederates, not peaceably, but that they draw the sword and fight for their rights to the litter end; that we are opposfd to separate action, and especially the secession of Arkansas without co-cperation; that a reasonable time should be given to the non-slaveholduig States to retrace their steps, and depose their unprincipled leaders, and give the South such guarantees as wUl secure their rights and equality in the Union; that, though deploring the election of Mr. Lincoln, we unhesitatingly declare that it is not in itself sufficient causa for a dissolution ol tbe Union; that we tender our thanks to Messrs. Crittenden, Bigler, Hust and others, for their efforts in Congress to heal the unhappy dissensions which have arisen between the North and the South, and to preserve the federal Union consistently with the rights and ho or of all States; that we are in favor of a State convention at an early day, and that we recommend to the Legislature an increase of ad valorem duties to 45 cents on the S100, which will 1 Ornish resources to defray the purchase of anrs and munitions of war witn which to protect our lives and our homes from aggression and menace.

Message of Governar Lietcher, of Virginia-RiCB3io2n, Jan. 7. The Legislature of Virginia assembled in special session to-day, and the message of Gov. Letcher was immediately laid before both hyuses.

In alluding to the concivon oi me country, me uoTeruur sy that all see and know and the danger to be imminent acd all true patriots are exerting themselves to save us from the impending perils. He renews the proposition made in his last message for a convention of all the States, aol says: It is monstrous to see a government like ours destroyed merely because me a cannot agree about a domestic" institution. It bac 3m3 our State to be mindful of her own interests. Disruption is regarded as inevitable, and if nsw confederations are to formed, we ist have the best guiiantee before we can attach "Virginia to either. He condemns ashistythe of South Carolina, wbich has taken her Southern sisters by surprise.

He would make'no especial reference to her had he not been invited to do so by her lae Executive in urcillei-for references to Virginia. The non-slavehulling States are Chargeable with the present condition of the affairs of the country, and if the Union is disrupted, upon them rests tbe responsib lity. aliudes at 1-F2tn tj their and siy? ttey have the power to end the strife and restore confidence. W11 they do it? We await tneir response in thit apprehension. He says that car acion should be based on tie wrongs done ur own people.

He opposes a State convention at this time, and suggests tb.at comriiss loners, compisd of two of the most cret statesmen, visit tbe Legislatures cf the Stas that have passed the personal liberty bills, and insist upon their unconditional repeal, excepting the New England States. Secondly That they must have proper, effective of protection to sla very ia the District of Columbia. Third That onr equality in the States and Ten itories mcEt be fully recognized, and the rights of persons and property adequately protected atd secured. Fourth That he be permitted to pass -throng! the free Stages and Territories unmolested, and if a be abd acted the Stato where he is lost shall pay tbe value. Fifth That liKe euiranttes lor the transmission of slaves bet ween slaveholiling States, by lar cr water, shall not be interfered with.

Sixtn. The passage of an enforcement law for the punishment of such persons in the free States as organize or ad acd abet in any mode whatever in organizing companies with a view to assail the slaveholding States and excite slaves to insurrection. Seventh. That the general government ba deprived of the power of appointing to local omces in siaveoolamg States persons hostile to their institutions or iniciical t3 their rights. He says ha will regard any attempt of the federal troops to pass across Virginia for tha purpose of coercing a Southern State a3 an act ot invasion, which will be repelled.

He is not without hope that the present difficulties vcill find a satisfactory Eolation. Let England and Western New York be sloughed off, and let them form an alliance withOanad a. The message is lengtby, and the balance mainly local. Lett? from Ex-Gov. Wise on the Crisis.

Ricemoxd, January 7. The Enquirer of this morning has a long letter from ex-Gov. "Wise on the present position of affairs.
