copai Conference Mechanics Fair, &c.
We have warm Spring like rain this morn.
ing, and every vestige of the snow and ice I
spoke about few days since, has completely
disappeared.
The Methodist Episcopal Conference assem-.
bled yesterday morning, at Caroline street
church, the number of pre- schers present being
not less than two hundred. Bishop Jones pre-
sided, and Bishop Waugh was also 10 att a dance.
The conference is In very quiet and PROSPEROUS
condition, aud it ia presumed they will soon get
through with their business.
Tn number OF deaths In Baltimore last week
was 81, which 10 rather over the ordinary ave
rage. There was no loss than Is deaths from
consumption, and IL from scarlet lever
The first day OF Lent was yesterday observed
with great soemnity by The C,tholic and Epis-
copsl churches OF this city.
The Mechanics Fir, under the MANAGEMENT
Of the new Mechanics Assoc alton, is to be held
in this city on the nth day Of March, Mt Wash

affair.

The post mortem examination of the body OF
Abraham Reed, held yesterday afternoon, led
the coroner's jury to return their verdict that
the deceased came to his death from concussion
or compression of the brain, caused by the blows
inflicted by his assailant, Joseph Dover. The
stab received by the deceased on the right cheek
penetrated five inches between the feshy part of
the cheek and the jaw bone, and the instrument
slightly penetrated sthe carotid artery; but yet,
strange to say, caused external hDmorrhage,
aud in the opinion of the physicians was not
sufficient to have caused death. The perpetrator
of this unprovoked deed is still at large; he is,
however, we'll known to most of the police, and
will probably be arrested, il he has not already
fed the city.
The opposition New York Telegraph Company
has completed its wire to the Office in thi 8 city,
and operations will probably commence shortly
The patentees of the Morse line intend applying
for an injunction as soon "a the new line goes to
work, to test the question whether the House in
strument, which they intend using, is not an in
fraction of the patent rights previously obtained
by Mr.. Morse.
Mss Henrietta Chew, an aged lady, the
daughter OF the late Chief Justice Chew, died
in this city on Sunday last, aud was buried this
morning. This makes the second death among
las, during the present winter.
Enoch Carter attached to the Custom House of
this city, as a day inspector, died on Tuesday,
adding another to the many that death has
snatched away within the present year, from the
number employed about the Custom House.
The stock market was heavy to-day, with the
exception Of government securities.
