From our Baltimore Correspondent.

BALTIMORE, January 25-5p.
THE attack on COL Ncss hainhs National Conpentior
Mechanics fair-the markets, &c.
The attack on Col Miess train has caused much anxiety
among his friends this his native city, for the receipt OF
further intelligence is evident that 1t has resulted from
want of foresight and proper caution in some one but the
great experience anSprudence Of the gallant Col Miles
forbid the supposon that he can be in any way to blame
for the sad result few days. however, Will bring us fur-
Their and more authentic intelligence than that received
by your pony express to-day
The announcement that the national democratic convcn-
ton is to be held in this city the fourth Monday OF May
has caused considerable satisfaction to our citizens and
the is doubt that the wing convention will also be held
here about the time. We may therefore look Tor
stirring time in the spring. our mechanics VIII now set
to work in good for their proposed fair, which
doubt not will be grand affair
The mail from the north to-day brings no news OIL inter-
est and our city also unusually barren OF interest
TIE MARKETS In the Baltimore market. to-day, flour
continues very dull purchasers are not dsPoscdt oPe
rate except lower sale OF 400 barrels Howard
street flour was made 81 Sh time The sales OF yes
erdny amounted about 900 barrels at VI 6t Tor cash
Holders of City Mills asking SO III, but find
cbasers Rye -four is held at 81 80, and corn meal at
SO 12t So %.
The receipts of grain very moderate small sales
of good to prime red wheat making at $50 l3A CENTS
and white at l3l 1873 cents Corn is not firm. Sales OF
white at 50 81 cents and of yellow at the same price
Oats As a 4s cents Rye dull, and nominal at ~ cents
Coveseed is in fair request with moderate sales at - %
So Sales of whiskey "a % cents, in barrels and
hog sheads--market little fimer
No reports of the markets from New York or
Philadelphia have been received to-day.

We will not believe that the wing House OF Repre-
sentatves Ia minority House, too) have determined
to reject the ten regiment bill, and, some say, to
refuse volunteers in place Of the regulars provided
by the bil-nay, TO refuse single soldier oI
the prosecution of the war We cannot but believe that
some few wings will be found independent and patriotic
enough to stand by their country the midst OF foreign
war Or, has the spirit of Decatur altogether deserted
the wing party?
The Committee Of Ways and Means have reported a
bill for raising loan of eighteen millions of dollars, not
to be lower than par. Now what say of the wing
presses, in chuckling manner They contend that
the government cannot borrow at par and now, too,
New York correspondent of the National lntegenceT
AYERS that gentleman of long experience in these mat
ters and well known ability, declared his belief to-day
that in three months there would be greater distress for
money in this country than had been known for quar-
ter of century past"
We regard this declaration as most extravagant
sertion Yet without undertaking to pass any opinion
upon the money specuaons Of the wing press, and for
the sake of the argument admitting the hypothesis that
the money cannot be borrowed at par what must we
think of the restriction in the bill from the Committee OF
Ways and Means Is such proposition credltable to
them They had better tell the country at once, awe
do not mean to furnish adequate supplies. We will not
stand by the country. We will starve the administration,
and disgrace the country If this is to be their course,
the sooner the country knows the better But we will
not believe such to be the purpose OF all the wings We
could name gentlemen upon that floor who have ex-
pressed their determination give the administration all
that they demand and others, who have protested against
the project from the committee 1t will require some
moral courage, surrounded as they are by such pow
erfu influences as now assa them, TO overcome these
actious appeals; but believe there are courage and
public spirit enough the House to discharge Its duty
to the country.

The editor of.the New York Tribune who has been a
week at Washington immersed in the mysteries OF the
wings, and pressing Mr. Clays claims, lifts the corner
b the curtain and informs his readers that Congress will
knock in the head the ten-regiment BILL" but will
furnish any amount of volunteers" AS TO the money
|upplies, they will refuse to authorize any issue
treasury bills, but will pass the loan bill Of eighteen
billions from the Committee of Ways and Means with
probably modification, permitting the Secretary to sell

should attach little credit to these statements, they

assertion "hat the administration does not desire

We understand the democratic members OF Congress
felt some delcacy in meddling in the slightest degree
with the National Convention But when they found
themselves appealed to upon the time and place OF its
meeting by various meetings OF the people and when
they found the State convsAton of Georgia invoking
their nterpostion they could not reconcile it to them
selves to abstain altogether from expressing opinion
upon the question. They accordingly and conferred
together and the result is now laid before readers
being respectful recommendation 10 the democrats OF
the Union to meet of old, according to the usages OF
their party at the usual place and time of meeting In
taking this course, they do not pretend dictate to their
fellow citizens, but most respectfully recommend the
former course of the democratic national convention

is the official account of the proceedings of the meeting
of the republicans OF both houses on Monday night:
