through-both Houses ‘by very decided .majori-
ties. I will at some future tiine'give your
readers a brief sketch of the position of‘ politi-
cal parties in this State, and of their probable
course of action in the next election.
YANKEE.
Spain and the United States.
A rather portentous dispatch was received
by the New York Tribune on Friday last, to
the effect that tho Secretary of State has re-
ceived dispatches from Gen. Campbell. 011!‘
consul at Havana, informing the Government
that the Count of Alcoy, (Gov. General of
‘Cuba,) peremptcrily refuses to surrender the
Coiitoy prisoners, ‘although proof was clear
that they had shipped for Cliagres without an
intent of participating in the expedition.
Mr. Clayton has dispatched instructions to
Gen. Campbell to make an unqualified de-
-mand for the pi'isoners.and,'in the event of
.auother refusal, war will be declared against
Spain.
Mr. Bulwer has given assurances that Eng-
land will not interfere, considering the cour.~ie
-of the United States thus far unexceptionable.
Mr. Clayton now evidently regards ii. rupture
with Spain as unavoidable.
U. S. Si;.\'.rron.—’I‘lii'ee more ineffectual
attempts were made in the House of Repre-
sentatives on \Vednesclay last, to elect a U. S.
Senator. It will be seen that Mr. Baldwin
held his own, while Mr. Toucey’s vote fell
off to 31. The Free Soilers have abandoned
their candidate, and are supposed to have voted
for Cleveland and Catlin. Further balloting
-has been postponed until \Vednesday next.
The New Haven Register says, “It is now
morally certain that no election can take place
this session.”
L?‘ The dirty nppearunce of the outside of
‘this paper, perhaps calls for an apology. The
fault, however, is in the ink iiianufacturer who
sent us a villainous article, with which this is
the best we could do. A recurrence of this
thing we hope to be able to prevent.
Eighteenth Annual Report
Of the Truslces of tlie _Pe)'l£l7lS I nslitntion and
Ilfassac/iusclls Asylum for Me Blind.
The state of this Institution, as presented in
the Annual Report for 1850, which we have
re.'.eived, exhibits several interesting features.
The amount of sales in the \Vork Department.
during that period was $15 881 48,tlie number
of blind persons employed being 36, and the
anion nt paid to them in wages $2,584 48. For
the future the adult workmen, who have ‘com-
pleted their education in the Institution, will
be required to provide themselves with board
in private families in the neighborliood. The
reasons for_ this plan are stated at length, and
with a good deal of force in the Report. The
case of Laura Bridgeman. the blind deaf imite
whose situation has called forth ii world-wide
interest and sympathy, is described in detail,
bringing down her history to the present time,
and giving facts which have not before been in
possession ofthe public.
ARRIVAL or 'riii-; EMPIRE Ci'rr.—T-he Em-
pire City arrived at New York on Saturday.
She left Cliagres on the 5th, but brings noth-
ing later from California.
T111-Z KNOCKlNGS.—-Tile Tribune of 8th inst.
gives it lengthy account of what transpired at
the residence of Dr. Rufus Griswold, in New
York, on the evening of the 6th, where the
young ladics from Rochester were gathered to
convince the skeptical that they have no agen-
cy in producing the mysterious knockings which
have caused such‘. a wide-spread sensation in
various parts of the country. The individuals
who composed the company were among the
most intelligent in the land, and were very
much surprised at the correctness ofthe an-
swers given. and the apparent innocence and
sincerity of the ladies.
The Nicaragua Steamer.
The steamer built by the Nicaragua Canal
Company for running on the river San Juan is
-to be called the “ Director,” and will be ready
in a few days. The Orus will ply on Lake
Nicaragua under the name of the “ Nicaragua”
as soon as the transit accommodations are on
the route. A splendid line of boats, both on
this and the Pacific side, will be put on this
route, and a large portion of the travel to and
from California, will be carried, undoubtedly,
by this line.
Tar: CALIFORNIA SEZ\‘TlMENT.—-The Hon.
Edward Gilbert, M. C. from the Gold State,
at apublic dinner given him at Albany, said
that wliatever might be the course of Congress
as to her admission, Slavery could never enter-
California.
IFA dispatch to the Tribune, dated the
11th inst. states that the Supreme Court of
Massachusetts met on that; day, and that the
appeal of the friends of \Vebst.er for a new trial
will be taken up in a few days.
Fnu: AT DANBURY.—A large hat finishing
establishment; in Daiibury, belonging to Hoyt,

a. graduate of Yale Theological Seminary,

try, and installed ‘pastor of the Congregational

GuANo.—Mr. Thotnas Boulden iuforms the
editor of the Cecil Whigthat he guanoed part
of one of his wheat fields last fall, and that on
that part of it there will be threetimes as much
wheat, judging from present appearances, as
on the other part of the field.
Gr.innoN's GRAMMAR.-Mr. Gliddon, says the
Springfield Republican, knew the person, the
case, and the number of his mummy, but was
floored on the gender.
. Bloomingdale.
State Reform School. ,
The House of Representatives passed the
Bill to establish a State Reform School, by a.
vote of 125 to 58. This is, says the New Ha-
ven Palladium, as should be—though it would
have been still better, ifthe vote had passed
unanimously. The bill provides that there
shall be an appropriation of‘$10,000 for the
benefit of the Institution, wlieneveran equal
amount shall be subscribed by individuals. The
State can well afford to make such a grant on
such terms-—for it amounts finally to a gift: of
$10,000 (0 the Sta/1', precisely as would a
subscription to that amount for the State
Prison. _
Orr 'rni~: Tn.u;i{.—The freight train on the
New York and New Haven road, run ovo
several co\vsiii \Vest Haven, by which the
cars were thrown from the track.
Foo'r AND McCAri='nEY.—'l‘lie Legislature
on Saturday, passed a resolution, postponing
the execution of Henry L_. Foote which was
to have taken place on the l9th inst. until the. 2d
October, when both he and McCaffrey will be
hung.
Eff" McCati'rey, nowunder sentence of death
for murdering the old couple in New Haven,

trod before, and captured the Indians as they

The Census lllaw of 1850.
This law has been published and is very
comprehensive‘. The information which it
proposes toimbrace includes population, pro-
fession, color,occupatioii, place of birth, num-
ber of marriages, deaths, the persons who can
read and write, deaf, dumb, blind, insane,
slaves, fugitives, and manuniitted, the acres
of land improved and unimproved, the cash
value each farm, the value of fainting im-
plements and machinery, the live stock, the
produce dnringthe year ending June 1, 1850
and the quantity of each particular article ;—
the products ofindustry and the values ;—
names of towns, counties and cities; the ag-
gregate valuntion of real and personal_cstate,
the amount of taxes assessed, the number and
character of the public schools, the extent
of public libraries; the number, class and
circulation ofthe periodicals and newspapers
the number of criminals; the cost of labor,
the average price of board to a laboring man
per week, the average payment of a carpen-
ter, per day, the average wages of a (lay la-
borer, the average wages of a farm hand, the
number and value of the churches, and in-
deed every species of social statistics which
can make those kinds of tables valuable as
sources of public information and reference.
Gra.t-ziilous Izzigicily/.—The Clcaveland
Plaindcaler speaks of a course of thieving
there which seems to have been almost with-
out a motive. A Mr. Horatio N. \Vard, a
wealthy, respected, and [reputedly] religious
man,'residiiig in Gliio city, is proved to have
been in the habit of visiting Cleavc-land and
stealing articles of all kinds from the stores
for a long time past. He usually came in a
wagon, took his plunder home, and con-
cealed it in the garret of his barn. In at-
tempting to steal a trunk ,in this way he was
detected, and this led to the exposure of his
practices.
“ It is one of the strongest and most pain-.
ful cases of moral obliquity known in t.hc
annals of crime. l‘_.lr. Ward is known to be
wealthy, and has abundant resources to in-
crease his wealth, independent of this. He
is an active business man, owns houses and
lands in Ohio city, a farm and mills near,
has a store in Milwaukie, in which latter he
has a partntter, and for which it seems he has
acted as its eastern thieving agent. I-iis rel-
atives, so far as we know, are considered re-
spectable, and his connexions by rnurriage
highly so. It is strange, passing strange,
that he, without any necessary or apparent
excuse of any kind, should bring this calam-
ty, worse than dc;it'n, upon himself and
riends.”
{l(-;=. The manufacturing of bonnet ribbons
has been commenced at Roxbury, Mass. A
beautiful article is said to be produced.
E Texas is said to have more than one
hundred church edifices, and not a single
theatre.
