It was telegraphed to San Francisco by two lines, and immediately published in the Bullctus and Alta. The reading of the Message, and of the proceed- ‘ings of Congress up to the 7th, tend to increase the anxiety of the people concerning the critical condition of the Union. The entire press of the State now takes a serious view of the secession movement, and favors the preservation of the Union, if possible, by mutual conces- gion. All the republican papers advocate the repeal of the Personal Liberty Bills of the Northern States. There {s some talk of organizing a Pacific republic if the South ecedes, but the present sentiment of a vast majority of the is undoubtedly to strive to preserve the Union as it is, and to stay with all that of Union if @ portion secedes. ‘The total contributions to the Washington Monument “fund on election day amounted to about $1,100.

Porr av Pnivcx, Nov. 23, 1860. The New York Papers in Hayti—The Herald and Courrier des Etats Unis—Mistakes in Regard to the John Brown Fund—Rawages of the Late Slorm—Proposed University— There is an increased demand for New York papers ‘among us, although geveral of them are virtually tabooed. Lill on the sly they are most sought after; among theso the Hxratp stands prominent. One of our local sheets devotes all its energy to demolish this paper, that has the boldness to employ a correspondent in our very midst, who gives reports not always tinted with rose color. The present cauge of rage, however, consists not in giving too much attention to the news of the isiand, Dut in showing too much interest in ber ownership—a topic which always makes a Haytion nervous. On the other hand, the Courrier des Elals Unis, a somewhat ‘amusing little French paper, iseued in your city, is assail- ed with tooth and nails, on account of a laughable but false account of the subscription raised among us for the Jobn Brown fund. The Courrier proclaims with amusing exactness and detail that the sum to be paid the family of John Brown amounts to eleven dollars aud seven cents. Unless I am mistaken, I have seen an editorial in the ‘Times of your city to the same effect, both articles plainly written by the funny editors of the two papers.

THE METROPOLITAN POLICE, Annual Report of the Commissioners— Interesting Statistics—Over a Quarter of a Million of People in Tenoment Houses. ‘The annual report of the Metropolitan Police Commis. sioners will be laid before the Legislature to-day. The document reads as foliows:— The Commiesioners of Metropolitan Police, in accor- dance with section 39 of tho act entitled, ‘ An act to amend the act to establish the Metropolitan Police, and to provide for the government thereof, passed il 10, 1860,"’ respectfully submit the following * . REPORT. act passed at the last seasion of the Legislature, ameiidatory of the Police act of 1867, essentially ‘moditled the constitution of the Bourd of Police, by reducing the number of its members, and by enlarging its powers and confiding to it new and important duties. By the provi- sions of the act of 1867, the Board of Police consisted of five Commissioners and the Mayors of the cities of New York and Brooklyn. ‘The Legislature, at its last session, ro- duced the number of commissioners to three, and relieved the Mayors of New York and Brooklyn from the police duties which had been imposed upon them. ‘The change, it is believed, bas been beneficial, by securing harmony of action, and the constant attention of the members of the Board to the important trusts confided to them. At the date of the passage of the amended act the office of Superintendent of Police was vacant. “On the 234 of May John A. Kennedy, of New York, was appointed to fill the vacancy. The great zeal and ability he has dis- played in the discharge of his respousible duties havo already won for him the confideace and support of tho citizens of New York and Brooklyn, as well as the re- = and esteem of the officers and men his com- ‘The Metropolitan Police district comprises the counties of-New York, Kings, Weetchester and Richmond, and the towns of Jamaica, Newtown and Flushing, in the county of Queens. ‘The area of territory embraced in the district is 920 square miles, and the population is estimated at 1,400,000 8. Except in the cities of New York and Brooklyn there is no force permanently stationed, and in thete cities the force'is quite inadequate to the’ popula- tion they contain. At the date of the last annual report the number of pa- trolmen in New York was 1,260, and in Brooklyn 198. Since that the Supervisors of the county of New York have authorized the further appointment of 150 patrol- men, and the Legislature, in the Police act of last ses- sion, designated the number of 200 for the city of Brook- yn, The police force now subject to the orders of the Board of Police consists of one superintendent, four inspectors, thirty-two captains, onc hundred and forty-one sergeants and sixteen hundred men. ‘The cities of New York and Brooklyn are divided into precincts, to each of which is assigned one captain, four eergeants and from forty to sixty patrolmen. There are also sub-precincts, to which two, sorgeants and from ten to fifteen men are assigned for duty. Two doormen are attached to each station house. In the cities of Europe, where the police is sustained by the constant presence of » military force, there is @ policeman to about cvery 500 inhabitants, while in the city of New York the proportion is one to 650, and in lyn one to 1,380. But inadequate as is the number of policemen to the requirements of the population, it is believed that the Metropolitan police has surpassed in efficiency tho expectations of its friends, and fully vindi- cated the wisdom of the Legislature in its establishment. With the exception of the riots of 1857, which were promptly repressed, there have been no outbreaks against the public peace; order has been maintained during periods of great excitement and distress; the laws of the State have been vigorously enforced, and the pu elections, which before were marked by turbu- lenco, and oftimes by bloodshed, have become remarka- ble for the order and quiet with which they are conduot- ed. results are due ina great degree to the re- moval of the controlling power of the police from the inBuence of loca! ices and local interests, Appended to this report are tabular statements exhi- Diting the number of arrosts during the past year, tho nature of the offences committed and the nativity, age, sex and degree of mental culture of the persons arrested. If the number of arrests be regarded as the measure of crime, it is fallacious. It will be seen by reference to the tables, that of 69,066 arrests for oftences against the perecn, 43,073 wero for drunkenness and disorderly con- luct; and of 11,44 offences egainst property, there were 2,672 for violation of corporation ordinances; and other offences which involve a very slight degree of moral turpitude, Nor do the returns for drunkenness express the number of persons who have been guilty of intoxi- cation, for, in many instances, the same persons, habitual drunkards, had been repeatedly 4 The administration of the police justices of New York seem to require the attention of the Legislature, while it may be admitted that those officers endeavor to adminis- ter the laws with a strict regard to the interests of the public and for the repression of crime and licentious- nese, there is reason to believe that from an indisposi- tion to punish with due severity the lesser offences of vagrancy, drunkenness and disorderly conduct, habits of immorality and vice are rather nurtured than dest 5 and that they who at first were only the subjects of in- dolence and occasioual debauchery, became, pa fil- judged clemency of the magistrates, hardened offenders. Board of Police, in their annual report of 1858, sug- gested that in order to determine the question of in- creago and dim aution of crime in the Metropolitan Po- lice district, it should be made she daty of the magis- trates in the district to report quartor-yearly to tho Commissioners of Police the names of all persons brought before them, and whether prisoners were acquitted or convicted. If acquitted, whether such acquittal was be- cause of non-prosecution and no bill found, or not guilty on trial. And if conyicted, the term of imprisonment and when imprisoned, or the amount of fine. The sub- ject. is again respectfully submitted to the consideration of the Legislature. The Bourd of Police have the satisfaction to state that by virtue of the powers conferred on them by the Legis- lature of arresting persons selling pope | liquors on Sunday, the practice, heretofore so general, bas ina great degree ceased; and though there are many public desecrations of the ' Sab) fy ihe moral por. tion of the community, yot ' coment of the law forbidding the sale of removed the most The law forbidding 1 ako been enforced. respectfully recommend to the of the laws for the observance of provisions of the Revised Statutes no person is permitted to travel on that day unless in cases of charity or neces- sily, or in going to or returning from some place of wor- ship within twenty miles, or in going for medical aid or for medicines or in visiting the sick, and all servile labor is forbidden.

In conformity therewith many buildings were either taken down or se- cured, prior to the organization of a commission autho- rized by the Legislature to supervise ihe rection of ‘new and the demolition of unsafe buildings, After that com. mission was organized the duties of the police in respect to unsafe buildings wero assumed on the publication of the opinion of Greene ©. Bronson, Corporation Counsel of the city of New York, that the law creating the commis- sion was invalid. There havo been taken down or se- cured by the police $18 unsafe houses and other struc- tures. Tt was also mado the duty of the police to examine into the safety of ferry boats plying inthe harbor of New York. In the performance of this duty two ferry boats were reported as unsafe, and were ofdered to couse run- ning until properly repaired. ‘The ifty-seeond und fifty third sections of theactrequire amendment, to determine accurately the powers and du- ties of the police in respect to tenement houses and un- safe buildings. While the expenses of cleaning tenement Louses is made a lien upon the property, there is no pro- vision for the collection of the lien, not is the powor to take down ungafe buildings sufficiently explicit. The duties of captains of police are arduous ‘and unin. tormitting. ‘They are held responsible for the peace and good order of their respective precincts; and that the laws of the State and the ordinances of the local authorities are properly enforced. The importance of their duties requires that they should be men of high personal cha- racter and of more than ordinary mental ability. In view of their laborious and responsible duties, it is re- spectfully recommended that their salaries be increased frem $1,200 to $1,500 per annum. ‘Ibe accounts of the Treasurer of Police are herewith submitted, setting forth the sums received by him, and from what sources, to whom paid, the date of payment, and for what service. ‘The beneficent provision of the law which set apart the ‘oceeds of the sales of unclaimed property and the ines imposed on delinquent members of tho force, as a nsion fund for the widcws and chiliren of policemen illed in the discharge of duty, bnye alleviated the condi- tion of many, who would, but’ for the creati on of this fund, have been destitute. ‘tho Embasey from the government of éopan, which visited the city of New York in June last, gave to the Poard, for the benefit of the Metropolitan Police, the sum of $13,750, with the recommendation that it should consti- tute a'Tund, and that the annual intorest thereof be dis- tributed among the force in such manner as the Board should decm expedient. In accordance with this recom. mendation, the Board constituted the Comptrollers of the cities of New York and Brooklyn, and the Treasurer of Police the trustees of the fund, to be called the Jn- pancse Merit Fund, and directed that the interest thereof should be annually distributed in the following manner:— ‘To the captain who shall, in the opinion of the Board of Police, bave best performed his duty for the preceding year, $200. To the two sergenuts who shall have best formed their duty, $125 each. To the five patrolmen. $1 7 ‘The trustees have loaned the at seven per cent on bond and mortgage on property estimated to be worth $40,000. ‘The Board of Police, under the authority of the Super- visors of New York, have contracted for the erection of a spacious buildirg in the city of New York for the de- tentien of witnesses, which will be completed on the 1st of May next.

Destructive Fire in Washington City= Loss $90,000., [From the Washington Star, Jan. 2.} About three o'clock this morning fire broke out in the buildivg owned by Mr. W. H. Philip, and occupied as @ grocery store by Mr. Henry C. Purdy, south side of Penn- fylvania avenue, between Fouraud-whalf and Sixth sireet, which spread very rapidly, soon communicating With adjoining buildings on either side and destroying nearly $100,000 Worth of property, The leading cause of the fire proving so destructive may be stated in the fact that ou yesterday the Potomac water was shut off from e aveune from Kighth street west to the navy yard, by order of the government, leaving all that section of the city in no condition to suppreas @ conflagration, When discovered the fire had communicated through several stories of Purdy’s building, and in 4 short time made its way into the house of Mr. M. G. Kinery, which Was occupied principally by Mr. E. Z. Stover, plunber and gas fitter. This houso was soou wrapped in fumes, and tho adjoining house on the cast, owned by the estate of Raphacl femmes, was next fired and destroyed. ‘This house was occupied as a grocery store and dwelling, by Mr. William ©. Harper, and was wholly destroyed, together with tho entire stock und furuiture of (he occupant. The flanes rapidly spiad to the next hovso, owned by Mfr. John M. Young, coachmaker, and occupied by him as & coach factory; nearly all’ bis stock of carriages, lamber, un- finished work, materials of all kinds, and tools wore de- stroyed, together with the entire building. ‘The building, 8 Our Feaders are aware, was formerly the Adelphi the: aire. The firetbad made such headway now, that althougn the water had been turned into the mains, no efforts of the fremet could avail to stop it. ‘The house owned by Murray & Semmes, and oceupied by that firm in the grocery trade, was entirely destroyed, though the major part of the stock was saved in a damaged condition. Adjoining the coach factory of Mr. John M. Young, the coach factory of Mr. Thomas Young was slightly dam. aged; the stuck was not removed nor dan |. Adjoin- ng Harper's store on the west,the building owned by Mr. John P. Ingle, and occupied by Mr. John F. Bridget, coach- maker, was considerably damaged. Mr. B. saved’ a large Portion of his stock of carriages and materiale. ‘The drili armory of the Washington Light Infantry was ted in the flith story of Philips’ building, and all effects, consisting of uniforms, accoutrements, valuable paintings, furnitufo, cases, &e., wero de- stroyed. ir private loss is $840’ to $900, independent of the government property, which consisted of 260 sets of equipments complete, and 40 drill muskets. The com- pany lose 120 new knapeacks, 64 pictures, 260 to 300 volumes of books, 18 or 20 full uniforms, one company fag, and other articles the value of which cannot be ac- curately ascertained. ‘The battalion tent equipage had been removed to the National Armory. The insarance policy on the effects in thoir armory bad only expired a few days.
