WAsHIseToS, Jan. II, 1860.
The eighth annual busness meeting of the Society
was opened this morning at the Smithsonian lnstltu-
ton in due form, at the appointed hour Delegates
from various bodies and members, having registered
their Names Il was found that the States OF
MARYLAND Iowa, Massachusetts, Delaware, Pennsyl-
vana, Indiana, Tennessee, Ohio Minnesota, New
Hampshire, Kentucky, Texas, Vermont, Alabama, the
District of Columbia, and the Territories of Kansas
and Washington were represented. Friendly greet
ines were exchanged between old acquaintance, and
perfect spirit of cordahty seemed TO prevail, despite
the r,r corous fquabbe in the National Debating CLUB.
The meeting having been called to order, President
Tench Tlghman in obedience 10 custom, delivered the
annual address, in which be took general survey OF
the proceedings Of the Society SINCE the last meeting
and made numerous suggestions for changes in its fu
ture management. The first point after statement OF

to agree upon verdict. But the case not the less
exemplfes the absurdity of the law as it now
stands and is suggestive of the evil consequences
Of which the present system is so frequently pro-
ductiye. One INSCRIPTIONS man may, at his
pleasure, defeat the ends of justice; and weak,
though well intentioned persons may be, and often
are, compelled, by their more obstinate colleagues,
to surrender their honest doubts and consign a
traverser punishment, without being sure that he
deserves it. 1t seems to US eminently proper that
some alteration should be made in the existing
laws. Either two-thrds of a jury should be en-
powered to render verdict, or they shoald be en-
titled to be discharged when, after certain reas-
enable period, they fail to agree. But it is dis
graceful to civilized country to maintain that a
jury should be treated like the one in GALES case
has been, or that truth can be eliminated by such
process as the law now prescribes.

COMPLIMENTARY CoNCERT.-The concert this eve.
ming at the New Assembly Rooms, in compliment
to Mrs. Curley formerly Miss Walter), under the
direction of the experienced leader of the Cathed
raj choir, Joseph Gegan, Esq, promises to be one
of the most attractive amateur performances ever
attempted in this city, The best private talent has
been freely rendered in aid of estmable lady,
who has contributed so often and so largely herself
to others. Mrs. Curley is well and most favorably
known the director of the choir of St. Ignatius
church, which responsible position she fills with
entire acceptance. We trust that she will be
greeted by full and appreciative audience.

The case of the State as Gale, which was tried
last week in the Criminal Court, illustrated one of
the many evils arising from the present system of
trial by Jury. Twelve men were locked up in
order to compel them to pronounce unanimous
opinion upon a certain state of facts. If they
were conscientious they could not compromise the
matter and if they rational they could not
be convinced by being subjected to dsagreeable
treatment. When they went out on Thursday it
is to be presumed they made every effort to agree
upon verdict before Friday morning. but when
the Court met on the last named day the Jury
seemed to be as far from doing so as ever Twice
FRIDAY they protested their inability to come to
any unanimous conclusion in the case and they
were as often told that until they all did take the
same view of it they must remain imprisoned
On Saturday they notified the Court three times
that 1t had become utterly impossible for them to
render any verdict out the Court still declined to
discharge Them and persstently insisted that they
should agree on something" On Sunday morn
ING one of the luckless prisoners cut the Gordian
knot he had so long essayed to disentangle He
settled the case summarilv by running away from
it. This proceeding, of course, effected the re-
lease OF the Jury, the remaining eleven being lib
Grated by the Court yesterday. They went off
rejoicing notwithstanding the fact that their un-
fortunate colleague had secured their freedom at
the sacrifice of his own, for he sent off to iail
where the Court directed he should be confined for
three days to expiate his contumacious conduct.
Was there ever, in any age of the world, a more
preposterous method resorted to to make twelve
men sincerely and undoubtngly believe the same
thing? Is there any law left standing on the
statute book which is more suggestive of barba-
rous epoch than that which provides that a
Jury shall be shut up without food, fire.
or candle until they can all take the
same view of the law and the facts submitted 10
them? W would not be understood as ntimat-
ing that Judge STUMP did, in this instance, any,
thing but what he was fully authorized to do, nor
have we any reason to believe that the Jury was
inexcusably refractory. We presume, ON the con-
trary, that its members made every effort that was
consistent with their honest individual convictions

To-day the application of the Maryland State
Agricultural Society for relief, after having once,
we think inconsiderately and unadvisedly, been
rejected, comes up again for action in the House
of Delegates. We wish to record our hope that
| the application will have favorable hearing and
that the very small appropriation asked for will
| be conceded. There is certainly no way in which
the States bounty can be more judciously bestowed
than in fostering the greatest interest in the State
| We ask the farmers and planters OF the General
Assembly to be liberal to themselves and to their
constituents. They need not fear that other inte-
rests, which all manage somehow to receive their
share, will consider that they have abused their
control of the pursestrngs by this small grant for
their own direct and immediate benefit. Balti-
more, which pays so large portion of the revenue
of Maryland, far from feeling any opposition to
so reasonable donation, is really amazed at the
moderation of the demand, and would cheerfully
vote much larger amount to so worthy OBJ
iect. 1t is altogether better for the interests of
agriculture that the Society should not have to
rely exclusively on its receipts at the gate to de-
fray its expenses. Experience has demonstrated
that for the sake of attracting a paying crowd
it has more than once been induced to counte-
nance exhibitions within its enclosures certainly
not german to the object for which it was institu
ted. 1t should be made Independent, and placed
on stable basis, if it is to effect all the good of
which it is capable.
The Legislature of Georgia have just voted
fifteen thousand dollars to their State Agricutu-
raj Society, to relieve it of its present embarrass
ment and twenty-five hundred dollars annually
to support it hereafter. The position our State
has attained in growing live stock is established
by the great exhibitions at Chicago and St. Louis
in September last, when she carried off upwards
of one thousand dollars in premiums for Devons,
Attorneys and Herefords exhibited there by two
of the officers of our State Society. This should
certainly create feeling of pride among our le-
gslators, and induce unanimous vote for the
small stipend asked in behalf of this useful corpo-
ration. The Society must cease to exist without
this appropriation.

This announcement is somewhat ominous We
trust that no of wanton aggression and spolia-
ton is contemplated by President Buchanan. But
it cannot be denied that outrages of the most law
less kind have recently been perpetrated on Amer
lean subjects in Mexico 1t is due to the honor of
the country that such crimes should be visited at
once with the fullest and most signal retribution.-
And, whatever may come to Mexico, it is GER
tain that no government, even foreign one, could
be worse than the savage anarchy which now pre-
walls in that country, and which has made it ap-
pear more like den of wild beasts than the abode
of men who claim to be in some sort civilized.

From Annapolis we learn that the Baltimore
Bills were received in the House from the Senate
yesterday, and referred to the Committee ON Judi
cial Proceedings. They will be reported to-day
and read for the first time. A large crowd, re-
quiring a train of FIVE passenger cars on the
Annapolis road, was in attendance yesterday.
thronging the rotunda of the State House, and the
lobby of the Delegate Chamber The STUMP
Committee met, according to appointment but
adjourned, without doing anything, until four
O'Clock in the afternoon when it was understood
that the examination of witnesses would be pro-
ceeded with. A circumstance occurred Yesterday
which, we are sure, our readers will regard with
equal surprise and disapprobation. Mr.. KIDD
chief Clerk of the House, being absent on account
of the death of friend, the SPEAKER was author
lied to appoint clerk pro tem., and thereupon
appointed Mr.. G. P. MONTAGUE, one of the State
Tobacco Inspectors of this city. Now we should
imagine, on general principles that man
holding the States commission for an important
office would have no time to attend to the duties
Of Clerk of the House of Delegates. But we do
not put our opposition on this ground, although
sound one. We put it on the ground that no
made himself more disgracefully conspicuous,
in the discreditabe scenes of the late elections,
than this Mr.. G. P. MONTAGUE. That the House
may Judge ofhis political status, we ask attention
to the following card, cut from the Clipper of the
25th of October last.
sc. MONTAGUE
Whose appears of the signers to the call upon
G. Harrison is not the undersigned Tobacco Inspec
tor, who is Davis man for any place he would aspire
to, and who will vote he has always done the AMERI
CAN TICKET, without an erasure.
c. P. MONTAGUE
This ought to be sufficient in the present House
of Delegates, and we have no doubt it will be.
As the subject is now up, we may as well say that
this individual is one to whom we have long de-
signed especially, to invite the attention of the
Senate, in case the GOVERNOR should renomnate
him to the place he now fills-and we are, there
fore, utterly amazed at this unexpected endorse
ment of him, especially at crisis when disloyalty
In so important an officer might put in peril all
our hopes of reform. We trust this action will be
promptly reconsidered and annued, and we know
that we speak the unanimous sentiment of honor
able men of all parties, in making the suggestion.
We, of course, attribute the Speakers course solely
to want of information
