THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON GITY: MONDAY --.40......ceses-00- Sty 16, 1860 ‘Spirit of the Morning Press. The Constitution addresses the national de- ‘mocracy on business matters, &c.; and in another article suggests that the republicans and their allies have been “counting chickens before they ‘were hatched’ in the case of the late Oregon ‘election. The Intelligencer, under the head of “ Curious Enquiries.” raises the queries why the southern press cencraily ignore the proceedings of the Bal- timore Convention which nominated Breckin. ridge aud Lahe, and speak of those candidates as exclusively the nominees of the Richmond Con- vention, why these gentlemen have never formally ‘accepted the Richmond nomination, &c., &c. a 9 7 The Hon.

Brecxinaivox 1x BALTIMORE.—A serenade was given on Friday night to Vice President Breckinridge at Bari Hotel. He had been called upon in the afternoon by many of the citi- zens. About half-past eleven o’clock at ight he ‘was honored with a serenade, after whice Mr Breckinridge made a brief speech in acknowl. edgment of the compliment. Twenty years ago, he said, he had wandered over the then suburbs of the city, new covered with monuments of perity and greatness. He touched but light on itical topics, —- that Maryland, like entucky, being a border State, was deeply inter- ested in the perpetuity of the Union Strict fideli- ty to the Constitution he considered the surest and only way of guarantying the liberties of the country. The Constitution, made by the wisest Reneration of men, was good enough for them, and it is good enough for us. The address was received with great applause. Mr. B. is on his way to Kentucky. rms, EXPENSES oF THE JAPANESE IN New Yorn The special committe of the Common Council Poe pepe to receive the Japanese at New York b & meeting on Friday to audit the bills. The Metropolitan Hotel bill footed up #91,000, and the others to more than £30,006 Among other items were ten thousand bottles of champagne consumed at a ball, which issaid to betwo bottles for each man, woman, and child in attendance The bill was cut down toan aggreyate of $109,(4W). at which fizure it was submitted to the Common Council. The original @ppropriation was only $30,000, and the newspapers are taking the com- mittee to task for exceedin, theirauthority. The Journal of Commerce reminds the citizens that “ any tax-payer may contest the payment ofall ex- cess over the regular appropriation, and hopes it will be done as a lesson to vsurping Common Councils and it ox le who consider ita fair to charge the city al three times what they would cbarge a private individual for the same thing % TEE JAPANESE of this: letter the ——$—$ SvmParuy ov THE Bopy with AN AMPUTATED Mumper —At Tower's Mill, in Lanesborough, Mass., on Tuesday, a young man named Jerry Swan was caug bt by the arm in some machinery, and the limb was so badly broken and mangled that immediate amputation was necessary. This was succesafully perform+d, but according to the Pi tsfield Eagle, Mr. Swan’s connection with the dissevered limb did not cease with the o) tion ‘Tue Eagle says: —-On recovering from the stapor (prodaced by the use of ebloroform), Mr. Swan still complained sorely of an aching band, Late tn the evening his distress became very great. and he lasisted that the hand was cramped by being doubled up.

But he soon com- plained of a sensation of cold and great pain in it it was accordingly taken up again, wrapped up, and deposited in a tomb, since which he is sot relieved.” Crime tn Exctann —Phe judicial statistics of England and Wales for the year 1959 have just been published, and they afford the London jour- nals a fruitful subject of remark. It appears that there are in the kingdom no less than tuirty-nine thousand five bundred and thirty professional thieves; thirty-seven thousand six hundred and cighty-eizht suspected persons constantly under the eye of the police; and twenty-three thousand three ro Sgpaansragl pa fifty-two vagrants having no visi means of su —or, in all, 104 crim- inals at large. ie aise Vhese tyares make little impression on the mind, as they are written on paper; but if the reader will iimagine the whole of them brought together, as one of the London journals suggests, he will get an idea of the number of depredators at whose mercy the subjects of ber Britanpic — hold their property and lives. Organized in military fasion they would make more than seventy regiments of the line—placed together in 2 row they would extend over twenty miles of groand—and et geo walker would require four or five hours of steady walking to inspect the troop. Their direct cost to society, supposin, each man to consume two hundred doulare’ wort! of value a year, is over ten millions of dollars. But thisis onlya part of the expense to which society is put on their account. The police aud constabulary forces are supposed. mainly to watch over their delioquencies, and the greater part of the prison and judicial expenditures have the same origia. Putting these toyether, it is estima- ted that the rogues cost the United Kingdom about $15,000,000, er about double the sum spent upon the Rovel Navy —_—______.

Prizes WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP. —o———. “Mvcn Apo azout Nornixe.”—The Dougias- ite newspapers fancy they see a streak of light for their cause in the South in a rumored recent dec laration of Senator Brown, of Mississippi, that he will not support Breckinridge and Lane. Even if the story were true, (and wehave no confi- dence in its truth—why we will presently explain) we question much whether its truth would de- tract sixty votes from the aggregate that B. and L. will receive in Novemmber—say fifty in Missis- sippi, and ten elsewhere in the South; Mr. B. being too erratic of late in bis political course to exert, go as he will, any influence whatever upon the result of the election anywhere. We, how- ever, @o not believe that be will fail to support Breckinridge and Lane, because, if he does, he will thus add confirmation so strong to the im- pression, that not a few entertained here through- out the whole of the last session, that though as- suming to be the most ultra Southern-rights man in the Senate, he was really play ing, swb rosa; a very desperate game for the Vice Presidential nomina- tion on a Douglas ticket; and that the numer- ous cob-castles he set up nominally in bebalf of the Southern cause (during the session) were so constructed as that Douglas might batter them down with the greatest ease. As to confirm any such expression would certainly work the end of all Senator Brown’s prospects asa ‘‘dear people’s’? man in Mississippi, we fancy he would ‘as soon put his head in the fire as essay to carry out such 8 purpose. We may not inaptly add that from the begin- ning ‘to the end of the last session Mr. Brown played, emphatically, the part of Monsieur Mal- apropos upon nearly every slavery question arising in the Senate Chamber. The South, as there rep- tesented, seemed to dread nothing so much as the injury to their cause likely to grow out of the posi- tions he had a way of taking—all nominally so ultra that it was rare to find any other Southern Senator coinciding with him; and yet all so scat- teringly taken, as that they, unfortunately, afford- ed Mr. Douglas almost his only opportunities of the session for gaining eclat and making substan- tial capital against the cause of the South. They were, essentially, but cob-castles, interposed as the South's defense against Douglas’s Paixbans- oratorical. We do not know that we ever before saw the friends of the South so vexed as they were time and again, by the mal-qdroit defen- sive and offensive works which Mr. Brown saw fit to construct as in opposition to the views and theories of Douglas. That he was regarded here by many as being as ardent a friend of Douglas personally, as any of the score, perhaps, of Southern public men, who each seemed to fancy his own Vice Presidential nomination as being next to insured if he could only effect something substantial by way of strengthening D.’s pros- pects, is a matter of universal notoriety bere. Though we have no knowledge of our own with reference to any understanding between Senators Brown and Douglas, we certainly do know that @ host of the most active friends of the South around us, looked upon him as being quite as ernest a sympathizer with Mr. D. personally, as Mr. Clingman himself; if not an active and avowed worker at the task of building up a Party for Douglas in the South such as Mr Clingman was, so evidently to all, as that we presume none doubt that fact. We place so great confidence in the effect of the tone of popular sentiment in Mississippi with reference to the cause of Breckinridge and Lane on the one hand, and on the other with reference to the now so evident abolition tendencies and pro- clivities of Douglasism throughout the entire North, as that we do not believe that a forty- horse power steam-engine could drag Senator Brown, of Mississippi, up to the position which the Dougiasite press are trying to cheat them- selves into the idea he has taken. —- Tue Fivtrer oF tHE Lossy.—Of late the pate: ¢ lobby bave been most conspicuous around the Executive Departments here. That is, the lobby interested in superinducing the Government's use of patented articles in various branches of the public service. A large number of the patents used by the Government are doubtiess excellent things in their way, resulting in praiseworthy economy and substantial improvement. More or less of them, however, are not ‘‘worth shucks” to the public service, though costing the Treasury enormously. The parties who lobby for the uss of patents In the Executive Departments, are nearly all of them, apperently, the shrewdest, most active, and adroit managers of such matters conceivable; the constant collisions of their counter interests sharpening their wits and in- creasing their activity amazingly. Thelr opera- tions are for the most part upon the subordinates, upon whose reports and judgment as experts their respective chiefs must necessarily rely in deter- mining which patent they will order to be used, or whether to use any patented article. Congress, at the last session, befng satisfied that some check upon the operations of these smart gentlemen was necessary for the conservation of the public in- terest, enacted a curb and guard in their case for the future. They are now said to be moving heaven and earth to devise some scheme to get around that provision of law. In this they will surely fail; for it matters not how great the embar- rassments prove that may grow out of dispensing with the use of patents in the public service, except as Congress orders their use, so long as that course is but in accordance with the plain letter of the law, it will be rigidly pursued by the Gov- ernment here, squeal as the patent lobby may. Doubtless some change in the requirements of the law in question will prove absolutely necessary. What that change is, however, cannot be known until after some months’ experience with the law as it now stands. = Deatn or a LigvTENant 1n THE Navy.—In- formation has just reached this city of the death of Lieut. Thomas T. Houston, a native of this place, who died on the U 8. steam sloop-of-war Iroquois, at Naples, on the 26th ult.
