cuted, I'D what would have been its cost under the
pr0 a established by the law Of 1852.
Il will be seen that there was saving Of s2l, !
ig7 95 on 90 much of the printing Of the XXAVIth
that of the first session of the XXXYIIth Congress.
On the printing for the Executive Departments
the saving amounts TO 50 per cent.
Upon the binding for the Executive Departments
there has been saving Of about 81 600 per month;
bat the binding for the XXxVlth Congress having
been done under contract existing az tte lime the
Government printing. Office was established, there
has been no opportunity to show what might have
been saved on that work.
The expenditures for PAPER, printing, bindnS e.. e.:
craving ssa itbographpg have hervtotcss eonstitu-
ted very large item In the expenses OF the Govern
ment. IRE orders of the XXXIVth Congress for these
objects involved an expenditure of 81 $50 407 So. Of
this amount, $39O,679 70 was paid for printing,
s3I7 927 81 for engraving and lithographing, and
S3649s9 "a for binding To this should be added
the cost of The Daily and Coaeres1ondi GLOBE for
the same Congress, which was s257 904 %, and the
printiuq for the executive departments for the
time. s152, 8S3 O4, making the whole expenditures
for the two years 996 1874 IS. The cost of engrav-
ing and lithographDg, from August, 1852. to Decem.
Der, 1855 was $Ss2, 10y %. This work can be done
much more economically under the direction Of the
Superintendent Of Public Printing than by, the pres
ent contract system. The Superintendent can as
well control and direct this part Of the work as the
printing and without additional expense. Al least
fifty per cent of the present cost of engraving and
lithographing can be saved by having it executed III
the Government Printing Office.
HOSPITAL FOR THE INSANE.
Since the institution opened, in 1865, 43s per-
sons have been treated. The numbnr of patients in
the house on the 30th June, 1861 49, classified
as follows: From the army, 25; from the navy, II !
from the revenue-cutter service, Il from civil life,
males II and females ~.
OF the inmates during the last fiscal year, l9 died.
63 were discharged, of whom IL had so far improved
that they could be safely removed and ~ were COM
pleely recovered The large proportion of patients
who were discharged recovered (which was 81
per ceDtum of the admissioDs) furnishes ample evil
dence of the skill and care of the treatment observed.
COLUMBIAN INSTITUTION FOR THE DEAF AND
DUMB AND THE BLEND.
This institution was organized in 1857. The num-
Der of pupils at the close of the first year but
seventeen. At the close Of the last fiscal year the
number wac thirty-fve. The whole resources Of
the institution amount to but g, l26 10, OF which
s. 425 "a was appropriated by Congress. With such
limited means but small results could be expected
bat from the great liberalty of the Hon. Amos
Kendall president Of the board Of directors. and his
watchful care of the interests of the Institution,
much good has been accomplished.

Already we have had premonitions enough to
understand what the nature of the war between
the North and South is to be, if the programme
of the war journals at the North receives the
sanction of the Administration. The new COM
pact of confederation, like the tabled compacts
between the arcu fend and man, is to be written
in blood. Nothing but blood will satisfy the
sanguinary cravings of such journalists as those
of the New York Tribune, and the Times, the
Herald, and the Courier, the World, and the Post
Blood swims before their vision, and tinges with
crimson hue every word that they write.
There is scarcely an atrocious sentiment that fell

Our readers will find, in its proper place, the
report of discovery Of arms and ammunition
at the Marshal's office and police stations, which
have been seized and appropriated by the parties
who are now in forcible and illegal possession of
the public property there. We have caused the
necessary inquiries to be made, and have ascer-
tanned that the whole of the warlike material, so
found is the legitimate property of the city--part
of it the regular armament of the police force, aud
part of it purchased under the resolution Of the
Mayor and City Council, passed on the 10Th OF
April, and providing for the public defence. We
learn that the concealment concerning which an
effort was made yesterday to get up Il ridiculous
sensation, was resOrted to at the time when the
illegal searches for arms were begun by
! General BUTLER, in collision with Governor
| HICKS, and when various other arms, pur'
chased and belonging to The city, were
unlawfully carried off by the orders of those
functionaries. Concealment under such circum
stances, was the only security against spolation
and ought to bring reproach upon none excep
those violators of the law and of public and pri
vate rights and property, whose misconduct ane
nsurpalion rendered it melancholy necessity.

PROCLAMATION OF GEN. BANKS


HEADQUARTERS DEP IF ANNAPOLlS,
June 9th, 1861.
To Colonel Krnly, Proro8t Norshai:
SIR-Mv attention has been ca led to resolu-
ton purporting to have been this day passed by
the late Board OF Police Commissioners, expressing
the opinion that ''the suspension of their funci0nS
SUSPENDED at the same time the operations of the
Police Law and puts the officers and men off duty
for the present."
You viii take special n tice, sir, that by my Pro-
camation of this day neither the law nor the Off
GERS appointed to execute the laws are effected in
any manner whatever, except as it operates upon
the members Of the Board Of Commissioners aud
be Chief of Police whose functions were and are
suspended. Every part OF the Police law is to be
enforced by YOU, except that which refers to the
authority of the Comm ssioners and Chief of Police;
those persons above named will be continued in
service by you, in the positions they occupy,
and with the advantages they receive, uni So
one shall refuse to discharge their duties.
If any police officer declines to perform his duty,
in order to avoid the ana hy which it the
purpose of the Commissioners to bring upon the
city, by incorrectly stating that it had been by
my deprived of its police protection, you will
select, in conference with sucn of the public au-
therites will aid you, good Gen and true to fill
their places and discharge their duties.
You will also take especial notice, that no opin-
ion resolution, or other act Of the late Board OF
Commissioners can operate to limit the effective
force of the police law, to discharge any officer
engaged in its execution. IT any provision OF the
law fails to be executed it will be from the choice
of the city, and if any officer, except such are
herein named leave the service, it will be upon
his decision.
You will cause these views to be made known as
the rule OF your conduct
| repeat my declaration and my purpose: no In
PREVENTION with the laws government of the
city whatever is intended, except toprevent secret
violent and reasonable combinations of disloy a
men against the government OF the United states
