MARINE AFFAIRS.
THE SOUND STEAMERS.


The steamer Plymouth Rock, of the StoningtOn line,
and Commonwealth of the Norwich line, did not
arrive until hafpsst l O'Clock yesterday afternoon
being detained by heavy gale fronN E., with snow.
THE NASHVILLE.
Tho steamship Nashville of the Charleston line, is
now on the large sectional dock for repairs She will
have several new tmbers put in, and portion of new
plank ON bottom Her machinery has also had thor
ough overhaulipg. The Bremen steamship New York
is also on the great Balance Dock TO have her bottom
scraped and newly painted.
CHEAP FARE TO CALIFORNIA.
Now that Commodore Vanderbilt has announced an
opposition line of steamers for California, the old
United States Mail Steamship Company have reduced
their fares They advertise steerage passage at 500
and cabin and second cabin in proportion 1t is pro-
bsble that even these rates will be materisy reduced
before long, in which case there is doubt that the
vast Western emigration which expected to start
in the SpIipg overland TO California, will be diverted
htherwaid.

REVISION OF Prison LAws.-Mr. Abbott, from the
Committee on State Prisons, resders Will RENE n
Der, introduced bill in the Assembly, NO or three
weeks since which reduces prison laws to more COM
pact form, and also contains few aterstions. The
propoied changes, it seems neither meet the cordial
approval of the Democracy at large nor Of prison ap'
pontees and applicants. The changes are chiefly tAe
followipg
The title Of Agent and Warden ia altered to Warden;
Tbat Of Principal Keeper to Chief Of Police aud the
Office of Ktchenseeper is to he described by the more
taking name of Steward. Another office is added,
tina, of secord Sergeant Of the Guard. The three
Inspectors are clothed with power to appoint aud re-
move only when acting az Board The Warden IN
the absence Of the Inspector in charge, may suspend
his subordnates for Incompetence, lntemPerance, or
violation OF law prison regulations until the next
meeting of the Board. The Inspector in charge IN
conjunction with the Warden and Chief of Police, may
suspend Keeper, Guard, or Assistant Matron tor
cause Ii will be seen that the individual power OF the
Inspectors to remove and appoint at pleasure during
their dctstorihip of three months s dispensed WITH IN
the new code, and in the bill becomes law, Mr..
Rhodes, the Democratic Inspector will be oipherfof
the rest OF his term. This it is which cow excites
painful emotions among the ofceseekers Of the Dem
ocrstic fsth
The new lew further provides for the appointment OF
the leading ofcers of prisons the fret Monday OF
April rext for term Of two years. The Democrats
say they expect to elect their State officers next Fall
but that this arrangement would DO them out Of any
voice N the prisons for year two longer For the
above reasons the Pom bill is likely to be warmly
opposed in the Legislature by the pnty cut Of power
WHO affect TO discover it political move rather than
q iuoicicu. modification OF the statutes.

Important Decision.

1t is stated that the Supreme Court
at Washington has decided that the
writ Of haJsaS corpus, when issued by
State Court, has no efficacy to re-
lieve citizen Of such State when he
is held by Federal process. This sus-
tains the decision Of Judge Mclean
in the celebrated Rosetta case in this
city, and of Judge Leavitt in the Clark
County case. EX-Marshall Hiram Il

dollars for his disobedience Of a writ
