A lew more fnet* oboist the Iffttn* a«ement of the Hospital for the lneane« We alluded, a few diys ago, to the management, or rather the mismanagemettt, of the affairs of the Hospital lor the Insane. At the Rsp'ubllcan Legislative eaticus, on Wednesday night, the present Board of Commissioners were nominated for re-election, which we suppose amounts to an indorsement of their administration of the affairs of this institutton. The cost for maintaining the hospital, and we have especial reference to the current expen-e), has largely increased during the past two years, without any justiflahie reason for the additional draft upon Hie public treasury. There are a good many rumors afloat in regard to the fliianeeering of the oflh'ors of the Institution, which, it seems to us, are worthy of Investigation before the LcgiPtuture indorses the administration of the present hoard by re-elactlng them. Thejaverago number of patients was less during the past two years than the average of tho three years previous, yet we tind that* the aV' rage yearly cost of supporting th - patients, and we take the llgures from Hie oflloial reports, increased from |! Id to S'.iT'o The oflleers of the institution, ns yet. have not attempted any explanation of this additional burden, whl h through their agency Iras been imposed upon thetas payers of lire State. Have the legislative committees on the benevolent insritulions of the State hid the opportunity to invectigate tire condition and management of the State charities? If not. at least sufllclent time should 'he given them, before tire action of the present officers i, indorsed by re-eioctlrrg them, to thoroughly Investigate the management of the h >sptt l_ Wo direct the attention of tiro Legislature to a few charges which uro current in the com-
munity:
t. It Is said that during the fall and winter of tkflo and 1*01! a number of horses, aortic seven or eight, belonging to the officers of the institution, were fed and fattened at the expense of tho State—animals which vest them when poor in flesh some ?1a each, but which were worth, alter they had drawn full rations from the'publie crib for several months, s one idoO
to $200.
2. It is reported tli it a certain Mr. Knits il the Steward i f H c Hospital, bought, soon after Ins Induction into office, a colt, fi r which he paid the sum of thirty dollars, or thereabouts. The State raised the animal, but Kkkni it retained the fee simple. •• fall oiks from little acorns grow.” The colt, through the agencies of time and good feeding, was lolly developed—capable of pcrl-nning horse duty. KitR.XCK stiil cmMrui ‘s to keep him in the Asylum stables, uses I,i n a* tli" motive power of the Asylum wagon and carriage, and as a vompensjtl m tlicrcf.ir. po-kets a yearly rentd of on* hundred d dl u s. KUKsnt's lloaneial ahilily is worthy of a in >re i lev ited position. In oise Mr. M-ri i.i.ocil should give way, we suggest to the President that the financial skill of^lr. KltKSf'fl shall not lie
wasted upon his present limited li Id.
3. Bread is the stuff of life, and we make this assertion upon the best of authority. But g nd bread can not be made without goodmateri ds. During the last summer the officers, the employes and the patients of the Institution, made frequent and daily complaints of the poor and sour bread furnished them. There was no apparent necessity for this condition of affairs. The State paid the market price for good flour; the-baker was a good Workman, hut he made the old complaint, that he couldn’t make bricks unless straw was furnished—lie couldn't make good bread out of very poor flour. And how about the flour? We hear that a contract was made with a certain mill, not very far from the hospital, to furnish the flour used in the Institution. Barrels were furnished by tho purveyor of the hospital, and by contract only one hundred and eighty pounds of flour were to ho put In them, sixteen pounds less than the lawful weight of a barrel of flour The flour was to he made, according to the contract, out of two-thirds of middlings and shorts, and one-third of com. ground and bolted together, and for this kind of stuff, and sixteen pounds short weight to the barrel, the tatepaid the markctfulibarrel price for good flour. We understand that the miller remonstrated against grinding such kind of stuff for flour, hut the response came: “ft is none of your business; tho officers of the institution know what they are about.” If tho officers of the institution have been thus speculating and peculating off of the State, should they be con-
tinued in their present positions?
4. Dr. J. F. (.’havens was for some time connected with the hospital as assistant physician, and his name is so recorded in the last report of the officers. About the 1st of Novemb>r last, perhaps on that very day, Hon. Andrew Wallace, President of tho Commissioners, for so he is recorded in the report of 1306, addressed a letter to Dr. Cravens, informing him that Dr. Wilson Lockhart, the Superintendent, was incompetent fer the position ; that he and the Board were sick of him—perhaps disgusted with his management, yet he was anxious that this conclusion of himself and his brother Commissioners should be kept from the knowledge of the legislature. He didn’t want the members of the Legislature to be advised or to discover his convictions and the convictions of tho Commissioners in regard to the incapacity of the Superintendent to discharge the responsible trust eonfidecHo him. He, also, gave Dr. Cravens to understand than after tho adjournment of the Legislature Dr. Lockhart'would be discharged, turned out, and, although no positive promise or assurance was given to him yet there was a gentle intimation that Dr. Chavens might bo appointed to the , superintendency—hence the necessity of his keeping very quiet In regard to themanagementof Ibeinstitution while he was connected wlih it. Why the necessity, in the language of a distinguished barrister, of this'* pollyfoxing ” if the management of the institution for the past two years bad been just what ft should be? The commissioners, we suppose, are honest and capable and “loyal,” or else a “loyal” Legislature would not have confided the trust to them. They have the reputation, too,of being, sharp,shrewd and farseelng business men, so that, If the charges we have recited are based upon facts, they have a reputation they do not deserve or ele.1 they are the victims of misplaced confidence. We understand that the Increased expenses of the institution do not arise from any additlonal cost in maintaining the patients, but from a different souree. The leak may lie in the center building. Tho oftiesrs’ quarters •nd table have become a sort of hotel, a public ordinary, lor the entertainment of their friends •nil connections—some, perhaps, prolonging their visits nr stays to weeks and months. We do not know whether'clothing is included in the supplies, but the liberality in feed aud lodging, will justify the suspicion that the necessities or the superfluities of the external
man or woman have a due consideration.
The honorable President of the Institution took oecasion, some months ago, to reply to some charges of mismanagement which this paper bad made, and as he is now exceedingly busy with the cares of State, and as that defen sc may suit the present emergency, we propose to by Its repubileatlon to save him the trouble of preparing a reply to the present charges.

Special Correspondence of theHerald. FROM WAMRN8T0N.
Daniel Webster’s Prediction. Tho mighty mind of tho great “ Expounder of tho Constitution ” foresaw, with all the clearness of the prophetic vision, the results of the negro agitation then disturbing tho peace of the country. Massachusetts still glories in tho fame of her great lawyer, orator and statesman; but does she ever think ol bis prophecy more than thirty years ago, and which has been so remarkably fulfilled to tho very letter? Speaking of the present Jacobin political party, then In embryo. Mr. Weiv
stkr said:
“ If the infernal fanatics and abolitionists over get the power in their hands, they will ovrrulc the Constitution, set the Supreme Court at deAance, change and make laws to suit themselves, lay violent hands on those who differ with them in opinion and dare question their infallibility, an<h finally bankrupt the country and deluge it in blood.'’
Washington, D. C., January 14,1867. Editor Herald: Since my last letter, matters of great importance have transpired. The btll Introduced In the House of Representa-
tives by Mr. Ashley, of Ohio, impeachingthe
President of thq United States, has caused
oodeldcrable excitement here, as a matter of
course; but still there does not seem to be as much anxiety manifested with regard to the probable result of the action of the House, as might naturally have iieen expected. On Thursday the Senate passed the eubstluto offered by Senator Wade, of Ohio, for the House bill, providing for the amendment to tho organic acts of the Territories of Colorado, Dakota, Montana, Washington, Idaho, Arizona, Utah and New Mexico, so as to secure tho right of suffrage to tho negro In the Territories. Tho bill as it now stands is entitled as follows: “A hill to regulate the elective franchise in tho Territories of the United States,” and reads as follows: “That firom and after the passage of this act there shall be no denial of the elective franchise In sny of the Territories of the United States, now or hereafter to be organized, to any cltizon thereof, on account of race, color, or previous servitude; and all other parts of acts, either of Congress or the Legislative assemblies of said Territories, inconsistent with the provisions of this act, are hereby declared null and void.” The Senate also passed tho bill fixing the time for tho meeting of Congress, the bill as passed provides, that in addition to the present regular times of meeting of Congress, there shall bo a meeting of tho Fortieth Congress of the United States, and of each succeeding Congress thereafter, at twelve o'clock meridian, the Uh day of March, *the day on which the term begins for which tho Congress is elected
] except that when the 4th of March occurs on
Sunday, then the meeting shall take place at tha same hour on tho next succeeding day. Tho bill also provides that “ no person who was a member of the preceding Congress shall receive any compensation as mileage for going to or returning from the additional session, provided for by the foregoing section.” Senator Hendricks offered an amendment providing that whenever s recess of more than thirty days shall occur, the members shall receive tho mileage allowed by law. Mr. Hendricks supported tho amendment upon the ground that when Congress should take a lengthy recess, the members would feel constrained to go to their homes and await the reassembling of Congress, and that they should have their mileage allowed them In such cases, as well as when both Houses regularly adjourned from one session to the other. He stated that his object was to prevent frequent and unnecessary recesses, and the consequent heavy expenses Incurred thereby. Tho amendment was re-
jected.
One of tho peculiar features of W.i-hlngton life Is tho speech making /ever. I'iiere is scarcely a village In New England but what has its “ speechist,” who “imagining their village cackle to be tho murmur of the world,” and feeling conscious of its own greatness, must needs pack up his blue coat and brn»« buttons, and armed with bis nasal twang and a full supply of check, and proceed to Washington to enlighten tho poor lienighted denizens thereof, by giving them his opinions upon the moral, financial and legal status of the torrcstlal globe; and whatever niiyho lacking in the quality of these “lectures” is generally made up in quantity. Scarce a day passes that one’s eyes are not attracted to huge placards and posters of all sizes announcing that Deacon So and so, or Rev. Squtmbob.wlll address tho citizens of Washington upon the political condition of tho country, “scats free” and the “ public invited to attend," each lecture winding up by a passing around of the hat for the purpose of receiving donations for the benefit of tho Feejeo Library Association, or tho Sindwieh Island Moral Reform Academy—queer names for a wooden nutmeg financial speculation. I suppose most all of your readers have heard of the notorious “ Beau” Hi< kman, who has been a feature of tho Na tional and Metropolitan hotels, of this city, fi r a great many years. “Beau" certainly is a geniu*. He is said to live by his wits; if that bo true, wits aro certainly a paying speculation with him, (or he apparently lives very well,dresses very well, and, like General Grant, is never seen without his cigar. On the occasion of some grand public demonstration in Baltimore several yclTs ago, Beau was very anxious to attend, but it seems ho dffl not have tho funds necessary to purchase ticket. However, ho had made up his mind to go, and go ho would. So ho stuck a piece of pasteboard rescmblfnga ticket in ids hatband, and took ids seat in one of tho ears bound to Baltimore. When the train had gotten well under way, the condo-dor camo through the car to collect the tickets. BkaL' watched the conductor until ho had come nearly up to him, when ho suddenly put Ids head out of the car window, and appeared to ho deeply Interested in the scenery. Presently the conductor tap pe l him upon tho shoulder, and said: “Your ticket, sir.” Beal managed in drawing his head m tho window to strike his head against the sash, and, by apparent accident, knocked his hat oil', and with well assumed Indignation exclaimed: “ See here, sir, you have made mo lose my bat, and my ticket waa in the band. I have no money, and can’t pay double fare." The conductor, not knowing Beau, supposed it to he a genuine accident, and allowed him to keep his seat. The passen gers, sympathizing with his toss, made up i purse which they presented to Beau, to com pensato him for the loss of his “ tile.” I heard Beau relate this circumstance once, when he exclaimed: “D—d good joke, gentlemen, and worth half dollar apiece,” and, with an insinuating smile, passed round his band for the “ greens.” Yours, etc., MiCAwnpR.

January I6i 1MT.
Mr. Speaker: 1 employ the opportunity now offered la presenting my reasons for op-
posing the passage of this bill. And in doing •o 1 will necessarily recur to some measures brought before the Houee and wbteb have no doubt suggested the necessity of some such action as is now being bad. The bill before us Is an extraordinary one, and its author Is attempting to carry tt through this House by extra parliamentary means.! have no knowi-
ure having been pre>e body in this country,
heretofore, and “I am quite certain that no such law as this is found ettber In our National or State legislative acts.. The fact of ita being presented here, and at this time, proved to my mind what 1 had before suspected, but without having the positive evidence which is here given, that those who are opposed to the Democracy here, as elsewhere, are determined by every means within their power, honorable or dishonorable, to carry out their
ui u lauv/ii tni/ir, iaj umi * / via* duvii
pet achemos, and thereby perpetuate their political power. Now, .sir, lam in favor of showing, and proving, if need be, to tbeae gentlemen that some things can bo done as well as others. That If it is right and proper for the opposition to bolt and defeat legislation, such legislation as the moat important Interests of the State demand, then indeed will the Democratic members of this body bojustifled In bolting, or in any other way breaking a quorum and thus defeating the high handed and ravolutinary measure* which gentlemen are preparing to drive through this House in such Indecent baste. And when. Sir. 1 speak of revolutionary measures, 1 speak exactly what I mean. Any measure by which tho Statens gerrymandered so that over 100,000 or fully one-third of her entire voting population are disfranchised— having no representation in the General Assembly, or If represented at all, by those who do not reflect their political sentiments. I say
of that
kind Is revolutionary
and should be defeated by ovary poootblo
any measnre
means and at ail haxarda.
Now, air, how !• It with tho ffrst bill introtroduced ito this Houte upon tt* iubj*ct of apportionment for Senatorial and Rspwmntnlive purposes. I coo few, Mr. Speaker, that 1 was perfectly astonished at the braaoa-faoed audacity,the supreme coolness with which that bill was presented. It i* In its arangement so extremely partisan and so positively unfair, that members aro Irreeistibly forced to the conclu slon that men who will present and support •’ measure of that kind are determined to hold position and power by revolutionary and unwarranted means. Let us recur to the figures. By this bill Fayette and Union coun-
ties, casting in tbe i form one senatorial
aggregate about 3,800 votes I district. Franklin county.
ty, lying adjacent, and casting a larger vote by several hundred than Fayette and Union combined, is not entitled to a .Senator. But for

Now You *<•« It-Now Yon Don't. She wng and she wasn’t. Hahn last year went to Washington as a Senator from the State of Louisiana; now ho ia there to prove that Louisiana la out of tho Union, a dead State; of course, then, he was an impostor as a pretended Senator. When General Butler was In Louisiana, “it was intimated to him from Washington that It would bo desirable to select two members from Near Orleans and tho contiguous parishes; ” to carry out thia suggestion, he sent General Weitzel with an army through the Lafourche country, to clear the country of “ rebels,” and thus make it “ loyal ” enough to vote for a Rcpubcan congressman. From all of which it appears that a State is a State only, when radicals want it to bo a Staf". tTST It is called evidence of treachery, saya the Boston f’ost, for the South to oppose tbe constitutional amendment, but no one at the South has denounced it a* sharply as Wendell Phii.i ips has at the North, or the radical Mr. Tilton in New. York. The latter says: “The amendment commit* tbe political fate of the negro to the bands of the rebel. This Is an act of moral delinquency of which the North ought not to be guilty. Count Gasparin has clear moral perceptions, and aees that under the constituiional amendment, as under the old regime of slavery, the negro must submit bis neck to tho oppressor’s heel.” Impeach ment.

Should it be successful, adult male suffrage will be made “ universal ” In Massachusetts, there being no distinction new on account of color.

The Iflhrylhhd Negro Sal*. One branch ef Congress is in % ferment about the sale of several colored people In Maryland under a decree of court, after convlctlon of crimes. One of tbe parties—Dick Harris—was found guilty ol stealing beef, and sentenced to be sold for six months. Not being a very valuable woolen fabric, be was bought in by bis brother for fifty dollars, and he is now working at Annapoll* for eight dollars per week. Had he been a white man ths law xtould have required a sentence of from one to fifteen years in the penitentiary. None of the other blacks who were sold brought ao high a figure. The law under which the sale was made was passed by a radical Legislature, and approved by the radical Governor Bradford. In the Senate It received every vote, and the vote In the house stood 48 to 6. Tbe ssme Legislature which pasted the bill passed the “treason bill,” and the “defenee loan hill.” which put the “ Ipysi ” stamp upon Its character beyond question.

I had used e very thing I could hear of wishout benefit, until I tried the Mexican Mustang Unseat. It soon effected a permanent cure. J. L. DOWNING.” Montgomery, Alabama, June 17,1859. ‘V take pleasure in recommending the Mexican Mustang Liniment as a valuable and indispensable article for Sprains, Sores, Scratches, or Galls on Horses. Our men have used it for Borns, Bruise*, Sores, Rheumatism, cto., and all say it act* like magic. J W.

8ir, i shall oppose tbe pasttige on i (institutional grounds. It
of this so ms
bill upon Constituiional grou
clear to me, that in Ihe enforcement of the penalty prescribed, we would infringe upon that prov i-lon of the Constitution which ex pres-ly declares that “ Senators and Rep re sen tallies shall be privileged from arrcii
during the session of tbeGcnersl Assembly 4, Section 8, State Constitution). No
lember who delay
this hill subjects tbe member who delays legislation, to srrest, trial and fine, In an established Criminal Court. True, there is nothing in the bill Itself providing for arrest, but the plain Inference is that arrest precedes trial, ss trial precedes conviction. If then, the party offending esn not b« arrested during the session, the i>lll fails in Its object. Of wbst possible benefit, then, can the enactment of this bill into s law be? It proposes no real remedy for defeating or delaying legislation. Besides, sir, any Isw which can not, In tho very nature of things, be of sny benefit, either to tho .party injured or to tbe party eommitting the injury, can not receive the approval or support of tho people, and without that support it must remain • blank upon the
statute book.
The penalty which should attach, In any law bearing upon this subject, ought to bo of such a character, and so prescribed, ss to admit of immediate enforcement. Such • Isw, with such a penalty, would preserve tbe constitu-
tlnnal quorum, and legists
delayed.
We find an emergency
this bill. “ An emergency ejusw uy reason of tbe public necessity requiring immediate legislation on tbe most Important interests of tho State.” Where, sir, are the bills introduced Into this House looking to these “most Important” Interests? What has tbe gentleman and his associate* been doing for the last five days while public necessity has i ed at their bands and ours, iegislatl said interests? Sir, somo forty orsflfty bills have been Introduced here, bnt not one of tbe entire number bss any reference to the really important Interests of tbe State. They are
P trtlsan hills, such as have for tbelr object tbe aggrandisement of a certain political party. This Is their real intent, tbelr only object, ""Is providing for State
rlalions to support tbe
ke it, that hills
for appropr and benevo
revenue, for
scientific, and benevolent institutions of the State—bills having reference to the public schools of the State, and all matters having legitimate connection therewith, are such reasonable men would suppose were for 1 best interest* of the people. But, sfr, the majority in this Hall, actuated by selfish motives, thinking of nothing but what will put money Into their pockets, or confirm political power la their hands, have passed by—have entirely forgotten for the time being all these most important interests. Tbelr own action, then, establishes one of two facts; either, that said Important interests are not appreciated by them, or that the emergency declared to exist
is false in theory and false in fact.
Gentlemen of the opposition, pass your extreme and unconstitutional measures! You are erecting a scaffold and preparing a nooae
to strangle Democrats.
The scaffold will stand! And the noose which you have prepared for us will finally adjust itself about your own necks, and th* wrath and Indignation of an outraged populace will hurl you Into merited political ob-
scurity.
