BALTIMORE CORRESPONDENCE.
BALTIMORE, May 3I-10P.

BALTIMORE, May 3I-10P.M.
The Daily Times newspaper did not
appear this morning as per announce
ment. A longer recess was necessary to
get all the appliances in order. To-mor-
row, 1 believe, is appointed for its debut.
There is some anxiety to see the plat
firm upon which this organ will stand.
The Episcopal Annual Convention as
sembled here to-day in St. Peters church,
Sharp street. | observed large attend
ance Of delegates. Rev. Bishop Whit.
tingham presiding, by virtue of his office.
He delivered his usual address, which
exhibited the affairs of the Church in a
highly prosperous and healthful condi-
ton. Several subjects of interest. but
none of very exciting character, will be
brought forward for discussion. Its ses.
sion will close, probably, on Saturday,
and on Sunday, a number of strange min
listers are to hold forth in the numerous
churches.
The races over Herring Run Course
commence next week. Fine sport is an.
ticipated. An effort, am told, will be
made to render this amusement fashion
able, by getting the ladies to attend. The
sport is beautiful, highly exciting, and oil
4 character calculated to please fair au.
ditors. Until, however, gambling, Thin
ble-rigging, little jokerizing, drinking,
fighting, and rowdyism, shall have been
eTadlcated from race courses, no lady can
or will attend. Scenes that meet her eve,
as now conducted and practised, are un-
suited and unbecoming either to modesty
or virtue. Frail nymphs of the pave are
the only female order that can attend
races with IMMUNITY. The course is said
to be IN fine order. 1t is expected that
very large number of strangers will
visit Baltimore next week. Independent
OF gentlemen and genteel people, we shall
be infested with "black legs" pick
pockets. and other personages belonging
TO the same category. A timely caution,
therefore, for honest, unsuspecting coun-
trymen, to look out for their pocket books,
watches, &C., may not be amiss. A good
ly proportion of Congressman and grave
Senators are expected over, who can thus
while away the recess.
A beautiful lady, of all things in the
world, is most attra ctive and bewitch-
ing-especially so when the fresh tint of
youth IS upon her lovely cheek, and love
sparkling in her eye. Such being
met the other day while walking in the
fashionable part of the city. She was
probably eighteen or nineteen, and is
generally accompanied by a female the
counterpart of herself She wore the
form of Venus, stepped majestically
as queen, and looked lovely In every
feature. Her eyes were of the raven,
her skin ike alabaster, and teeth like
pearls. 4 shrewd guesser may form some
idea of the lovely damsel alluded to.
