The Latest News. To-day we shall begin the publication of # on: o’olnck edition. We shall continue to publish an edl- tion at belf-past twoo'olock. This will give the pub- lic two afternoon editions ef the Herald. These edi- tions will contain news to the moment of issue, and can be obtained at the office, of the newsboys in the streets, at the eteamboat landings and raliroad depots. We published in our regular edition of the Herald yesterday, and in extra sheets during the day, graphic accounts ot the closing scenes ot the Thirtieth Congress of the United States, which we received by telegraph trom Washington, at a vast outlay of money, They came to this journal ex- clusively; and so eager were our citizens to learn the result of the last night’s proceedings of that body, that many thousands of our extras were gold. As, however, our despatches were published ‘as we received them, in parcels, and at different times, we have thought it best to give them com- plete in to-day’s paper, so that they may be perfectly intelligible to all our readers. Some of the incidents that took place on Satur- day might and Sunday morning were more befit- ting a bear garden than a legislative hall, and re- flected disgrace on the members and on the coun- try at large. We wish we could pass them over in silence; but we wonsider it our imperative duty to record our detestation 0: the disgraceful personal encounters which took place between Messrs. Johnson, Ficklin, Root, Giddings, and others. We care not who were to blame in those scenes, or who provoked the strifes ; the halls of Congress are not places for pugilistic displays or personal en- counters between legislators of a great nation like his. Asia usual on such occasions, Congress attempt- ed to serform a great deal of business within a imited time, in order, if possible, to make up for the vast expenditure of time in the early part of the session. The consequence was, that a great many bills, of great importance to the country, were not acted upon. After an exciting struggle between the friends and opponents of the measure proposed originally by Mr. Walker, Secretary of the Treasury, to make anotker depa:tment of the government, to be filled by an sdditional cabinet minister, the bill was passed by both houses, and the Hon. Jona Davis, of Massachusetts, was selected by Preai- dent Taylor to preside over that important office. The bill establiching a branch mint in New York was lost, although it passed in the House. We are sorry for it; but we trust the subject will be agitated again in the next Co.gress, and adopted. Up tothe hour of our going to press, we received no account of the adjournment of the Senate ; con- sequently we are as yet in the dark as to the final disposition of the Civil and Diplomatic bill, as amended 1n the House, and containing a provision forthe government of Calitornia. Should this bill not have passed the Senate, wt will probably force upon General Taylor the necessity of convening an extra ession of Congress. General Taylor will enter upon his executive du- ties to-day. He will be inaugurated about twelve o’clock; and immediately atter the ceremony shall have been concluded, he will send in the names ot the gentlemen who will compose his cabinet, for ratification, te the Senate—an extra session of which has been called for by ex-President Polk, for that purpose. The Hon. Abbott Lawrence, of Massachusetts, it appears, will not be one of the cabinet. General Tayler proposed the Secretary- ship of the Navy to him; but he declined to accept that, or any other post than the Treasury. This was tendered to and accepted by Mr. Meredith, of Penneylvai and the consequence is that Mr. Lawrence will remain at home, or go as minister to England. The cabinet, as it has been re-or- ganized, stands as folluows—for, as a matter of course, the members selected by the President will Secretary of the Seoretary of War. Postumaster Guo. We OMD, of Gi Tuomas Bwine, of Ubio nl Raverpy Jonneon, of iteryiand, Attoriey General. This 1 a well organized cabinet. Each member carries with him considerable moral, political, and personal influence. It appears that the new Presi- dent would submit to no dictation in selecting his constitutional advisers. The Pennsylvania delega tion waited upon him, and objected to the appoint- ment of Mr. Meredith as Seeretary of the Treasury; but the President informed them that his mind was made up on,the subject, and it could not be changed. This is an evidence of General Taylor's well known firmness of character, and augurs well for the independence with which he will coaduet his administration. Great cesire is manifested to learn the tenor of the inaugural addresa. We shail receive it by telegraph in the course of the day, and issue it to the public immediately after we re- ceive it, in an extra Herald. We were enabled to procure an outline of 1t early yesterday morning, which we published in part of our edition of yes- terday; but asitdid not appear in all, we re-pub- lish it to-day. From this outline, we are led to believe that it will be just such a document as we expected. It will be a repetition of the sentumeats which pervaded the President's letters aad speeches previous to the election. He will administer the go- vernment on broad national princip'es, for the be- nefit of the whole country; he will sanction any ad. justment of the slavery question which will not interfere with the constitutional rights of the Northern or Southern States, but thinks the ques. tion is properly a matter for the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States; the tanff question he will submit to Congress, and will sanction any modification which they, as the ex- ponents of the will of the people on the subject, may make. These sentiments, as well as the one coneering the veto power, which he says he will not weaken, but which should not, in his opraion, be exercised merely in conflicts of opinion between the executive and Congress, ax to the expediency or necessity of a measure, but only in preserva- tion of the constitutiona—th se seatiments, as tar as they go, are directly in accordance with what he has heretofore uttered in hie speeches and letters preyious to the election, and we believe they will give general satisfaction, The new administration will be fairly under way to-morrow. The President and his cabi- net will enter upon their ard1ous and important duties under bright auspices, The couatry is ina very prosperous state, Our relations, foreiga and domestic, are satistactory, with the exception, perhaps, of the slavery question; but that, we ap- prehend, will be settled a manner satisfactory to all parties. Weare at peace with the whole world; our commerce, foreign and domestic, never was on a better footing; our people are at- tached to their governme it and institution the future looks bright. No visihie obstacle 1s in the way to prevent the United States from becom- Ing, if indeed it is not now, the greatest, happiest, and most powertul nat on on the face of the earth. a Tux Prisons or New Yorx Statx.—The first apnual report of the Ingpectors, to the Senate of New York, is now befere us. We derive some useful information {rom this report, in relation to prison discipline. It appears that the cat-o’-nine- tails had been in constent use in our prisons until prohibited by the act of the Legislature of Dec. 14th, 1847. This prohibiton of inflicting any blows upon convicts, bv way of punishment, created quite a panic among all the officers and authorities of every prison aad jail, throughout the State. It ‘was pronounced to be a dangerous experiment.— The following interesting passage from the report before us, seems, we think, eaustactorily to settle the question :— ‘The Inspectors of State priso: red_upon their duties with a determination to give a mild system of discipline, without the infliction of blows, a fuil and fuirtrial, To this they were not only wed of bumunity, but impelled by the unvq voiee of pubste opinion, and bound by the prouibi ory clause of the law betore referred to Though watering upon the “experiment”? with «a new svt of offi mea”? im charge of the prisons, they rejoice to bs able to nay, after the experience of one year. that it bas proved wa: Urely euecessful Disebedivuce and disorder have not Tesuited from the discoutinuanos oF the usw of Che cat.

At Sing Sing prisom during toe months of January to Novemd-r, 1oo\asave, of che pra sent year, the total number of puuishm-ate was 351 During the same months of 1847 {ft was 732; showing a diminution of 881—vonrid-rably over one bat. At Auburn, from Jan. 12to Deo 1 1848 ths total num der of punichmenta war 282, We oan fod eo records of previous yeers with which to make # oompariaon {t is not to be supposed, by the above, that no punishments are inflicted; on the coatrary, there has been a substitution of other means of discipline. We lear that these consist of deprivation ot food, the shower ba’!,, the yoke, the stocks, and sulita y confinement ; and from all accounts, the effects of this new system are of the happiest kind. The following statement is taterestiag ; and the slowness of the Inspectors in presuming that it is to be attributed to improved morality, is, we think, both just and commendable : — The total number of convicts in the State prisons of appears to be gradual y broomiog reduced Auburn prison 1, 1847. was 507 Aa : 1844, leas 55 Sing Si. “ Deo 1, 1847, Ee Deo. 1 1843, bak « Female, Deo 1. 1847, sad “Deo. 1, 1848, ee i 133 Clinton prison, Deo 1,1847, “ 144 oy!

The teachers’ and chaplains’ reports, collected in this annual report, present little which calls for special notice or admiration. A report by the teachers of the Aubuin prison has the follow- ing:— It is quite as true cf convicts as of child * Saran fiuds some mucnivk atatl, For idle hands w de.” But this is not the grea'est evil resulting Srom the want of proper men's! employment Their imeginetions are likely to dwell upon scv nes of former dissipation sod senrusi tdulgence Che pastions are uence » vice fe indulged fo. a Pbeg ruins the Desith, rendwrs callous te moral influences, and degrades them below * the brutes that perish ’’ There is something frightful and horrible in the above. What a picture of man! And let us not forget that these unhappy creatures—we might say, viewing the crimes they embody, these moasters and beasts—are our brethren, our own flesh and blood—men ot like passions and teeliogs with our- selves, The teacher, however, ia the ubove re- port, seems to jump upon a false conclusioa, in saying—“ resulting trom want of meatal e.aploy- ment.” We believe that active bodily employ- ment is at all times better tor m+n than * mental empl-yment” of any kind, especially hodgepodge reading, which 1s only another term for “ evil em- ployment.” Upon the whole, numerous as are the documents bound up 1n this gigantic report, it preseats nothing indicative of the mind or genius of Joha Howard, in the reporters In many of its features, this report 1s uasatislac- tory, and, in the whole, it joinewhat obscure. It is hardly possible te arrive at much, if any, knowledge of the rationale of our prison institu. tions by aid of this annual report, because it is, in fact, an immense bundle of miscellaneous accounts and of minute money disbursements, at the several prisons, for refreshments, eoat, pants, paint, oil, beef, pork, bread, butter, cheese, potatves, mut- ton, hams, pepper, &e. &c. We should have thought our Legislature would have appointed proper officers to audit these six- penny accounts, big and | ttle, so as to render it unnecessary to print, at the public expense, loag liste of family and domestic ex,enditures, swelliog out into a thick octavo volume, as large as two or three ordinary Bibles bound up together, Very little useful information 18 to be gleaned trom these cash accounts, and few, we apprehend, who read them, wili be able to ascertain their correctacse. This report, which, by the bye, 18 the first report consists of various accounts, documents, reports and papers collected together from the several prisons of the State. This appears very much ike leaving it to t! e officers of each prison to send im their own accounts and reports, to be published by the inspectors, aud would appear to render the ter inepeotors,” under such circumstances, something of a misnomer. ferhaps, as this is 4 first essay under the new law, our remarks may be rather too severe, We coafess, the in- syectcra may have seen more than they have reported, aud may have refl-cted more than they have written, wedo think that, ia tutore, a plain, sober, gommou sense accouat of the prisou rot much longer than o Cents mesenge, might or twice the Presi mmhine all the moral aod statistic information necessary, and contain all the suggestions and awunadversions which the cirepmstaners might require, Some large aad tute reeting taules of statistical reports are coutained in this voume, which are qu te 1aterestiag.

At this display of ki ness, the poor woman was nearly overcome with grati- tude.

The italian ‘was going out, but was met at the door, before she had lefc the room, by an Irish servant girl, who, having heard of the poor women, came in to see her and tke baby without armr or feet. As Bridget entered the room, she looked indignant aud mirchievous, and shut- ting the door, sbe planted herself with her back firmly against it, and looking at the woman and child, she eaid:— ©! missus, is this the poor orature wid the babee, that has nathur arms ur legs till it 7” * Yea, Bridget,”’ says the mistress, “ but she is just going now Youshould have come up before if you wanted toree them.

The legs were olceely strapped up, and bandaged in such» manuer as to caure the appesraroe of an entire waat of limbs at the lower partof the trunk, while the arms were atropped down olore to the body. The child had pro- bably beem put in these bands soon after its birth, and bad become ro acourtomed to them that it did net feel any inconvenit+noe from the banda ‘ieg. The rer- vant girl had heard of this kind of imposition, and was satisfied of the character of the woman before she made the disclosure, But it was now her turn to hare her heart softened, and she could hardly keep the big tears trom making ® race course of her cheeks, when she looked at the poor child in its forlorn condition. She wason the point of giving way to her feclings, when ind:gnation took the piace of pity. and she ratis: fica berselt by administering a well deserved rebuke to the Italian woman, whom, she declared, understood every word of it, The ladies contented themselves with declaring thetshe deverved to be sent to the Tombs as an importor. and for inbumen treatment towards the child; but as they had bestowed their gifts upon her. they would not recall them.
