A quorum of both houses of Congress is present, and an organization will take place to-day at noon precisely. | Mr. Speaker Boyd has been quite unwell ever since his | arrival, having taken a cold on his route here, but lam pleased to say he is much better this morning, and will be able to take the chair, The disastrous appearances of political affairs in Vir- ginia constitutes the only topic of interest this morning with the crowds of newly arrived members. Hon H. A. Wise, although nominated, failed to receive a unani- | mous yote of the Democratic State Convention; and ; great excitement and confusion prevailed up to the hour | of adjourument, which was one o'clock yesterday (Sun- day) morning. Some gentleman shrewdly remarked that Mr. Wise’s nomination was the résult of a deter- mination on the part os mocrats to sacrifice him | sooner than an old c at, to the fury and power of the Know Nothi: McComas was nominated by @ large vote for ant Governor, and Mr, Bo- cock, unanimous ney General. The defeat of the democratic ticket ntly predicted by even many friends of Mr. Wise; but as the democratic vote of the State is 75,000, apuinst a whig vote of 66,000, and as Mr. W. bas but tes equals 48 a popular orator, it will be difficult to beat him with the ig aud Know Nothing vote combined. Bat little public busine +« will be transacted during the present session. The defeaied members will wish to show | Uhemselves martyr, pro tono publico, and prepare the | way for executive indemnities in the way of fat offices.

Wasmxoron, Dec. 2, 1854 The Fu(wre of Soule in Spain—His Career from his Ap- | pointment by the President till he Returns Home—Cuba j to be the fesue of the Next Election—Political Prophecy. | A large number of Represeutatives has arrived to- day. General Cassis here, vigorous and well prepared for the coming contest. On Monday the long agony will | be over in regard to the President's Message, already in type, and to-day despatched to different parts of the | Union for the press. Our foreign relations is the only topic upon which there seems to be any anxiety or interest—Soulé and Cuba, Cuba, Soulé, and war, make up, at the present time, the gossip of Washington circles. I have already written to you upon this topic, giving, as near as I was able, the {ncts relating to the Ostend meeting, and the probable action of the administration upon them. Once more taking up Mr. Soulé, I will now incicate what will Ye Lis future as American Minister, judging from his past. Whatever may be the tone of the Prosident’s Massage, whether peaceful or warlike, it is not likely to af- fect or alter the course of Mr, Soulé abroad. Nothivg short of his recall can thwart him in the consummation of the schemes which he has at heart. So long as he ix the official ambassador of this country, he holds in his hands the power to involve us in a warif he ct ; and that he will choose to do so, his past career ¢ To start with, Soule was sent over by the administra- tion to Spain for the purpose of obtaining Cuba. This was the special object of bi visit, which was well un- i derstood at the tin t large, as well as by those in the “sec! ident.” When ealled out to respord t populace who assem- Dled to bid him farewell, at different places, and in New York elty among the rest, he was expected to talk of her acquisition by the United States. The antecedents of the man gave rise to these expectations in the public mind, and these expectations wore not dis- appointed. In ull his farewell speeches he did talk of | Cuba, and the continual harping upon this subject show- ed th) bent of his thoughts. Mis experience in the in- trigues ef foreign courts, an { his desire that Caba should be a portion of our Unwn, recommended him to the Pre- aident 28 a } rtospain, Mr, Pierce him. nelf Wt being averse to the annexation of this island if } ft could be so ensily obtained as the wily Soulé led him to supposes—suule argued the q on of his going to Spuin for Cuba with the President, and Soule tri- umpled in the argumont, as mi t over mstter, Wha of our §) pare in mounta'n. Let the ia upon the interview betw t Soule, while the latter was convincing r of the feasibility of making an a : We can readily and fea- sonably o w the lacter—smotherivg his personal hatred to and Spai rm and strong from & consciousness of the mental w bh mon from step to step, t tory, eagerly grasped ting with the imps stowed, all iis soul kin lent fir man when he first feels he haa the means to “ sweep to his revenge.” We can readily imagine how Soule talked of “a certain purchase from Spain,” of ‘an easy acquisttion,”? of its glory to the administration,” &e:; but with our knowledge of the man, we cannot imagine the President to have been s'atecman enough to aee the drift of all these arguments, or, in other words, to dis- | crimigate between the wisdom of a patriot and the se- | ductiv® harangue of a politician. Soule captured the | President and gained his iission. Now that he is the victor, what will be the result? | He is the American minister in Spain, and Cuba ia the game he is after. Is it rensonable to suppose he will be | } | | thwarted in a scheme so dear to him as this, if he can sibly prevent it? The whole character of the man sstifies in the negative. The President here may have at least is eyes cpened to the dangers into which he ix entrapped. He may see that he is driven Letween two alternatives, ‘*Cuba and war,” or the “extcemo of conservatism.” The ques ion'ts to which course doos policy—policy that bas an eye to 1966—direct ¢ Thore ix no half way house. He may sry both—first ona and then the other; but Mr. coule will play lis gamo, let the President take the eourse he will, which is the proposi- tion with which we started. If the President recommends | war at the first—well and good. But suppose | message Is peaceful and lamb-like, as it may be the sulphur being brouvht on the table as a dessert at- terwards, In this event he opposes bur. Soulé; and what | is the course of the latter? He will argue thus:—“The President is against me, and what I do as minister I must do while Ihave the power.” If the President is g for peace, then Marcy has triamphed. Mr. iedla Woot be is vanquished at howe, His ‘coures is clear. Hv goes to Spain, picks # quarrel in wome way or other—(there a thousands of ways in which a minister mayo this with the nation where he is ac- ind before our government knows it, Soulé ‘8 passports and is om his way home. Suppom the administration opposes Soule in this forced uarrel, and instead of fighting for, apologises to pain for the.tonduet of their minister; Mr. Soule tlen throws himself upon public sentiment; the question and ex- citement of war and Cuba then comes up together with the ery of “an insulted minister,” &c., which is in iteelf, in defiance of the administration, quite sufi- cient’ to give Soulé grand dinner with Kos- woth and Sanders in London, serenadge at | the Saint. Nicholas, torchlight procession in Philadelphia, and a reception committee in Washington, where he will arrive, the champion of war, while Con ressis in session. ‘his brings oar Minister home; and > strengthen this prophecy, may state that it is said ® tizens here, private friends of Soulé, have letters from | Ahim, in which he boasts that he will be in Washington before the adjournment of Congress. Having brought our Minister home, what fodows now? The President is elther bound to back him, or risk bein: gut down bimself by the war party which the excitemen | will call into existence. He will probably sustain the minister, and if he does, then the Cabinet goes to pieces. Marcy, who is a man of peace, will take Ibis oid cotton | umbrella under his arm, put himself under hie bat, and walk out of the department; a new Cabinet will de com- # ructed, and the ntry will be enveloped ina warex. sitement, maki ba or not?’? the nem Presicential isene, as I have stated in my former letters. ‘The above closer the possible career of Mr. Soulé as minister. Ido not pretend to say that everything will fallout as Ibave stated, but that Mr. Souls lias the pores run this career, and probably will, if forced to it by the opposition of tie adwinistration. I have given the above to show that we may set down war excitement and « war issue as certain ni the next election, regard- Jess of the tone of the President’s message. If the Pre- ‘sident is bent on peace, as some say, then mark my words: I have written the history of the next two years. But vepaen tine are that the President is just where I bave him in my former letters. He is probably in favor of and-not against the Spanish minister. He will likely be first ‘conservative,’ and then give @ ape- cial war message to bring the whole of Cubs before the for a war iseve in 1556. This will satisfy Souls. He will, im this event, remain where Le is, and this will ‘de the end of the matter. So the whole thing, narrowed down, comes to this: If Mr. Vierce don’t go in for a war excitement, Mr, Soulé can and will. Whose war will it bet—Pierce’s or Soulé’s? This is the question, and this I impartially from NELLA. Court Calendar—This Day. Dustaior Covrt.—First day of term. Burrems Cover—Cirenit.—Divorce case atili on.

DEFICIENCY IN THE FUNDS OP THX BOARD OF EDUCATION. received from the Commission- charter of 1863, in relation to ficiency in school moneys for 1864. The commu- nication stated im substance that when the Board oe to the amount of some $140,000 more than the appropriation for the year, the Poard of Commissioners was organized, and appropriations thereafter made by the Board of Education ought, in the judgment of the Com- mii mers, to have been sebmitt to them for approval; and such application for larger extra sppropriation ought to have been accompanied by a statement of the Board of Falucation, showing the number of scholara taught dur- ing the year, and demonstrating that the additional tax called for would net meke an aggregate amount for the service of the year 1b54, exceediog (he sam of $4 for each pupil whe had actually attended and been taugh in the preceding year in the schools entitled to partici pate in the apportionment as provided by Sab., sect. 3, cap. 386, of the laws of 1851. If this course had bee taken by the Board of Education ani no ebjection had been made by the Commissioners, or if made, had been overruled by a vote of two-thirds of the Board of Eda- cation, then the Commissioners would have been requir- ed by law to present the same to the Board of Supervi- sers, and they must have added the suin to the tax levy in July, where it properly belonged. If the suporvisers cannot lawfu'ly levy the tax jor this deficiency, then the Common Couneil are not warranted in making @ loan in anticipation of the revenue to be derived from such tax. The 19th section of the charter of 1550 de- clares that the Common Council shall not have ai thority to borrow any sums of money whatever on credit of the Corporation, except in anticipation of the revenue of the year ia which such loan shall be mate. ‘he communication further advised that the opinion fe Corporation Counsel be obtained on the subject, a) (bat the number of scholars taught should be ob- tained from the Board of Education. The communica- tion was referred to the Committee on Finance. In connection with this subject, Councilman Kaxxepy moved the following resolutions, which were adopted :— Resolved, That the Board of Education be, and is hereby, requested to report to this Board the number of ged who have actually attended and been taught in he schools under its charge during the your 1863, also the number of xuch pupils under i yor ee the number of days of the attendance of each pupil. “ Renived, That the Counsel of the Corporation be, and is hereby, requested to communicate to this Board a copy of any opinion he may bave submitted to the Board of Education relative to Meop od ate under existing lawe to raise funds to meet the deficiency.

Cy | THE ARCTIC DISASTER—MEETING OF THE STUDENTS | AND GRADUATES OF THE MOUNT WASHINGTON COL- LEGIATE INSTITUTE. A meeting was held yesterday afternoon, at 2 o'clock, at the Mount Washington Institute, corner of Macdou- gal and Fourth streets, of the graduates and students of | that institution, to express their regrets at the untimely fate of Henry Coit Collins, who was a graduate of the Institute, and a personal friend of many of its inmates. briefly alluding to young Collins, and commenting on his good qualities, which had endeared him to all, Mr. Clarke read a series of resolutions, among which the fol- lowing occur:— 3 Resolved, That the heroic conduet of Henry Coit. Col- ling, in ‘refusing a life preserver until all the ladies on board the ill {ated steamer were supplied,’ was in har- | mony with his character, as known to us for four years, and places him justly for nobility of self-sacrifice | for others in the hour of trial, by the side of the most | conspicuous examples of admired greatness of which history can boast. Resolved, That should the suggestion of erecting s monument to the memory of Henry Coit Collins, con- | tained in the newspapers of a few weeks since, be acted upon, it will del ght his classmates and teachers of the Mount Washington Collegiate Institute to contribute to that object. f Mr, Juste FURLONG, a uate, made a few remarks, in which he touchingly alluded to the fate of their young companion. He cordially assented to the resolution be- | fore them, which proposed the erection of a mdnument | | to the memory of young Collins. It should be built on | | the boldest promontory on Long Island, and over. | | look that sea in whose depths the young hero had | perished. The name of Collins would go down to poste- rity with these few names whose heroism ‘in the midst ot peil histery delights to honor, Mr. Furlong also | touch'ngly aliuded to the death of Mr. Thomas P. Ket- | tell, one of the graduates, who also died this year. ‘The Rev. Dr, Asa‘H. Sarr earnestly impressed on the aucience the necessity,of so living, that after they bad passed away, their memory might be asa aweet saver | to thos who woul! mourn their loss. He knew both | Collins and Kettell, aud he was satisfied that his young friends could not do better than to imitate them in their lives, Death is at all times terrible, but never more so than when surrounded by the perils of the deep. At that | time, when “shrieked the timid, and st still the brave,’’ young Collins, overcoming the natural weakness of our ature, bravely and generously refused a life- preserver, because ali the’ Inline ‘wane wad fup- plied with them. Dr, Smith concluded by hoping that this heroic example might not be lost on bis young friends before him The resolutions were then put and declared carried, after which the meeting adjourned. During its continu- nce the scholars and graduates appeared much touched by the remarks of the speakers. NEW YORK PRISON ASSOCIATION—THE FEMALE DE- PARTMENT. A meeting of this association was held last even- ing in the lecture room of Hope Chapel—Mrs, Gibbons presiding. There was a rather small attendance, in | consequence of the severity of the weather, but the pro- | ceedings were nevertheless very interesting. That por- tion of the New Testament about the weman taken ip adultery was read by Mr. Oliver Johnson; after which Mrs. Gibbons read the f.llowing report of tho condition of the institution from the 1st of January last:—There were at te Home on the Ist January, 1854, 14 inmates; | received during the year, 174; sent to places, 61; allowed to find homes for themselves, 10; kent to friends, 6; went to housekeeping, 1; sent to the Magdalen Asylum, 3; sent to the ‘Jombs, 2; almshouse, 2; discharged, 10; left without permission, 21: remaining af the end of ¢! year, 31; sent to the Emigration Soélety, 1; adopted, sent to the Hospital, 14; uot Ot subjects, "14 Of the 174 admittec during the last year, 70 could | read, 48 have been taught to read, 54 to write with pen | and ink, and,J6 to write on slates; 22 who did not know their alphabet have been taught to spell, 57 have been taught addition, 24 have learned the multiplication ta- | bie, 5 to calculate dollars and cents, and9 have cypher. ed as far as the rule of three. When it is remembered | that these are adults, without any mental discipline | whatever—that some of them remain but a few weeks at the Home, and few more than three months—it is evident they sre eager to learn, and that their instruct- or is diligent im teaching, We regret to say that our means of doing good are much circumseribed by the insufficlency of our. income. Much of our work is done ineliectively for the want of # building appropriate to it. We derive considerable income from the washing and sewing done at the Home. But the work wouldbe more cheerfully done if there were accommodations for it, and its productiveness would be much enhanced by conveniences that we cannot Lave with our restricted space. It obviously can never be a relf-supporting institution; and at the present in- creased price ot provisions we can scarcely, with the se- verest economy, bring the year round. We aro compell- ed to pay small’ salaries for very laborious and painful services, and thus suffer the great disadvantage of fro- quent change of matrens, who, if competent to their onerous charge, naturally soon leave us for some more profitable post. Again and again, then, we must re- spectiully, but with a deep conviction that we deserve more aid, appeal to the public for it. Weknow well the demands on your munificect charities from every quar- ter. In name, give!

We say in the language of oar seventh report: “The way to think well of this work is to engage | in it perconally. One year’s service at the Home, in the capacity of manager, and the duties of the various com- mittees that divide among them the labors of each month, will do more towards giving a just idea of the undertaking, and the encouragements which cheer us onward ond authorize the hopeful return of our reports, than whole volnmes of argument.” Weave just entered on a new epoch in the history of our Isbors, After a careful and friendly deliberation with the gentlemen of the Prison Association, it has been deemed best, for many reusons, that the connection | of the female department with that association should be severed, and that tho ladies should have a distinet | an‘ independent organization, They have accordingly formed a separate society, and | will bereafter be known as “The Women’s Prison Asso ciation and Home.” ‘ ‘The total receipts ‘from subscr'ptions, donations and other sources amounted to $2,458 69, and the expenses to $2,296 09—leaving a balance of $02 50. When the report was read brief addresses were de- livered by Hon. Mr. Leigh, Mr. ‘fillou and other which the meeting adjourned. Nortuwestern DisPensany—Revort voR NOVEMBER.— From the report of Dr. A.

Arrest on a Requisition False Preences.—Officer Spicer, of the Court of ions, arrived on Saturday last from Paterson, New Jersey, having in custody Henry Simmons and Jeanette Simmons, on a requisition from Gov. Seymour, of this State, on Gov. Price, of New Jor- ney. The accused were indicted by the last Grand Jury, for having, by means of false and fraudulent pretences, obtained a lot of clothing, &e., to the amount of $1, from Peter Dolan, clothier, of 130 Nassau street. The accused were taken before Judge Beebe and entered into bail in the sum of $1,000 each fer their by rope ee at the Court of Sessions to answer the said indictment— Mr. Lauritz Brandt, of 2203¢ Fifth street, becoming their surety—after which, upon their departure, Henry Simmons was taken in custody by a deputy sheriff upon ‘8 civil process, and committed to the Eldridge street “ail ‘The New York Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor. This association, which was, organized in the year 1848, and incorporated under the general law for the in- corporation of benevolent and other societies, in the year 1848, has just issued its Eleventh Annual Report. ‘This document is an interesting one, as it furnishes many singular facts in relation to the condition of the poor in this city. ° The following is an abstract of the most no- ticable facts contained in the report:— After stating the genoral object of the association, which is to furnish employment to the poor, s0 that they may maintain Their self-respeot, and when that is im- possible, to furnish them with food and clothing, the report goes on to say, that the sanitary condition of the poor has been heretot ter which strongly commends itself’ to general regard, while it especially claims the attention of legislators an of those philanthropic institutiors whose object is the social amelioration of the masses. To the reproach of our civilization apd humanity, New York suffers in com- rison with all our other large cities. We have no of- cial statistics which indicate the ages at which differ- ent classes of the population die; but it is here found, asin foreign cities where figures are available, that, in the best built and cleanly portions, the ratio of mortali- ty is from fifty to seventy-five per cont less than in the Mithy neglected quarters, where the pepulation is over- crowded tb badly constructed houses, and the ventilation and sewerage are defective. RATIO OF DEATHS IN THE DIFFERKNT WARDS OF NEW YORK. The following table shows the number of deaths in each ward for one year, ending July 1st, 1854, and thi ratio of deaths to the population in each, according to the census of 1850. The Eighteenth ward having been divided since the census was taken, and three new wards formed out of the Twelfth and Nineteenth, they are omitted in the table:— Ratio of Wards Deaths. Population. Deaths. 19,754 in 23.6 6,655 10,356 42.4 3250 22.6 22,668 19.0 24,699 17.6 32,690 20.5 34,612 33.0 10,657 39.7 23,816 32.4 43,758 26.6 24 28.6 15,196 19.4 22,584 AL 296 52,882 16.0 2074 48,763 21.0 by the above figures desory seri- ai ous attention. It is true that the present actual rate of mortality cannot be ascertained on the basis of the census of 1850; but the comparative mortality ia the different ward thus shown with satisfactory clear- ness. It will be seen that the number of deathis ia not graduated by the wealth or poverty of the different wards, but by the regard or disregard of the sanitary cS ion of the habitations, A glance at the war tistics settles this important fact beyond adoubi. NUMBERS OF THE INDIGENT SICK. ‘The following is a statement of the Indigent sick that were gratuitously provided for by our public institu. tions, during the past year :-— Rew York Dispensary castern Northern Demilt Northwestern‘ New York Hospital. Bellevue Hospital, Biartling as ere the above tigures, far short of the reality. To this list of 121,000 sick, who are chiefly unskilled laborers of the most’ destitute class, should be added multitudes of the same class that are relieved by private benevolence and the numer- ous organized charities in the city; also those cared for | by the different ehurches and beneficial societies; and last, but uot least, the great body of operative artisans, builders, &c., in humble life, whose occupations some: times, but more frequently their torent dwellings, induce debility, sickness, and incapacity for iabor. if but five hundred persons of this class prematurely che la s year—which{s probably less than half the sctual number—the aggregate loss to the city cannot be leas 500,000, taken from its available resources, and Which has to others. TUR DANGEROUS CLAS#IS. Again, social demoralization and crime, as well as dis- ease, originate and thrive amidst the festering corrap- tions of the poor. Theve is a lowering of moral charac- ter to the level of physioal condition, an encouragement to vico whit tion of the “dangerous classes,”’ and the consequent in- security of person, abound. Hence the necessity of precautionary measures —a strong constabulary force—an, army of police, and an erray of criminal courts and prisons. And, as before shown, of a sickly population is an ‘expensive one, a criminal population is such ins far higher de- gree. In Liverpool, with 220,000 inhabitants, the cost and loss arising from the vice and crime of 4,700 per- sons, was calculated to be £700,000, about $3,500,000. The Statistical Society deeming the estimate exorbitant, went carefully over it, and pronounced it understated. Ir such is the cost and loss im Liverpool for 4,700 crimi- Bals, in a population of 220,000, it may be left to the euniarly interested to estimate the cost and loss to few York in the annua! police commitments of more than 60,000 persons, ins populaticn of 000,000. What aneredible sums are was' rough ignorance or inat- tention to the is of humanity ! STREET BEGGING AND VAGRANCY, Besides the ordinary labors of the association, special efiorts bavo been made during the year to suppre: those great social evils, street begging and vagrancy. For the past ten years it has endeavored to effect all | that was practicable for it todo in this direction, M4 discouraging all aid to unkown, beggers, and by exter ing such f tothe really ay to deprive every ove of @ pretext for vagrancy, which a ing state of absolute destitution affords. But, not havi Deen sustained in these exertions by the public authori- ties, and posseasing no police power to enforce the laws against those who cannot be influenced by social and mor- al considerations, great numbers of this class of persona Lave continued to pursue their unlawful and debssing avecations, without restraint or molestation. The Board was consequently induced to solicit the Common Council, by memorial, to apply those coercive moa- sures which exclusively belong to it, and which are alone adequete to remove the deprecated evils. But no action having been taken by the authorities on the subject, it atill remains open for such new efforts as the exigencies of the case a, de |. This association incertainly not responsible fer those peculiar types of pauperism which it hax no l power to prevent or control. And yet it is manifest to the Board that if, in connection wit on this great evil were eneryically carried into effect, ing, ey, and thelr attendant evils, would soon be banished from the city.

It appears that on the 2d of May last Powell, whileintoxicated, attacked and ‘beat Heaney in so shocking a manner that his lifo was despaired of; but he subsequently recovered, with the losa of one eye. Powell left the city and did not return until Saturday. Officer Sherman traced him to a drink- ing place in Grand ‘street, about one o’clock in the morning, where he was in company with six com- panions (three of them black.) ‘These men attempted to rescue the prisoner, but one of Colt’s pacifiers kept them at a proper distance, and Powell was locked up to await examination this morning.

The Plague of Water—Thanksgiving—Indictment of Theodore Parker—The Know Nuthing Festi- val— The U. S. Senatorship—Mr. Banks, Judge Bigelow, and Mr. Wilder —Representative Elections, Se. The great subject of interest in Boston at this present writing is the same that itis in another ce- lebrated place, where cool drinks are said to be at an exorbitant premium, or would be, if they were admitted there at all; that subject is—water. There is an enormous scarcity, “so to speak,” as Mr. Sess has it. The best places to getit are the barrcoms, which are advertising that they have the. pure article, brought from the neighboring towns. The temperance people say that this isa new device of the wicked to entrap the unwary and the unsophisticated, and perhaps they are right; bus if they themselves stick to the impure Cochitaa‘e, they mske the greatest sacrifice of stomach to prin- ciple that was ever heard of. Without exaggera- tion, the Cochituate is a beastly atuff at this time, and mo humane man would think of giving it to his beasts if he could pro- cure anything better “for them. They are enalyaing the water for the purpose of finding out what is the cause of its supreme nastiness, though | it can hardly be expected that people will like filth any the better for knowing what to call it in appro- priate scientific language. Idon’t believe that they wou'd dink the Cochituate in Sebastopol, even if the allies sould ever succeed in cutting off that aquecuct abcut which we hear so much. It is sup- posed that the corruption of the water is temporary; but if it should turn out to be permanently spoiled, whatthen? I'm sure I can’t answer the question and I think that our tax payers would be puzzled in the same way, at least once @ year. Thanksgiving passed off very quietly, as most people behaved like Christians. The preachers were elequent and did their duty. Mr. Parker and others have been indicted for the part they are charged with having taken in the Barns affair, Most people, including men who sup- port the Fugitive law, regret this, as they think it ‘will only lead to further agitation.
