The annual report of the Vaccine Com
mittce was read at recent meeting of
the French Academy, in which the Gucs-
ton of early vaccination Was fully Discus
sed. NJ. Dcpaul, the reporter, states
that in spite &C the opposition raised to

PROGRAMME OF THE RADICALS IN Cox
ss.--The negro agitation has BADLY be-
gun in Congress. The radicals have de-
tcruined to change the Fugitive Slave
Law so as to give fugitiyes trial by iury
in the precinct to which they escape. This.
Of course, will render the law of little
value TO slsve-owers. They have also de-
termined to recognize Hayti as a Power,
and receive ambassadors thcretrom here.
Thy propose also to rep"al the ''black
code," so-callcd, of b" District of Column
Dia, and will attempt to lega!izc voting in
the District by six months residents
These arc few of the measures which
the radical party in Congress. who feel re-
markabiy strong just now, will insist
upon, and as the session proceeds they
viii open the black Pnrdora's box as wide
as p'ssiblc. Meanwhile the soliicrs Of
the army are wondering as they fight why
Congress does not attend more closely to
The financial Interests, and let slavery
alone until the rebellion is ended. - Fash.

MARYLAND FREED.-Thcy have had u
grand ball lately in Richmond, according
to female secession authority in Baltimore.
at which Miss lIctty Carey. one of the
pretty daughters of Mr.. Wilson Carey, a
prominent sece>sionist. teacher of that
city, figured most con.picuously. The
story goes that she appeared at the ball
dressed as captive slave. with Der hands
tied at the wrists. aud bearing the shield
of Maryland on her bosom. indicating
thereby the chains by which that State is
kept in the Union. jeff. Davis came for
ward during the evening and released her
nIa"ac'ed hands, by untying the cords
that bound her wrists. and thus, in the
person of the lovely Miss Hcuy Carey,
freed Maryland from her bondage to the
Union power, amid the stormy applause
of the company. Miss Carey aud one of
her sisters are earning u livclih, OIL as
clerks III the Confederate Administration,
This event has created the most intense
delight and sympathy in the upper crust

TnE ms vIcroRvIN CONGRESS-, The
news Of ,pmrc of Fort Donelson was read
in the u. States Senate Monday, followed
by enthusiastic cheers, and the Vice President
ruled that cheering was in order. Mr..

a some fleet Cavalry to assist in baggng
Floyd. The brave johnson, of Tennessee,
moved the thanks Of Congress to the soldiers
and sailors OF toe Union who had carried our
llag to such glorious victories, which was at
once sgreed to, though we fancy that Bayard
and Salisbury aud few like them did NOT
much relish the news
In the House similar announcement was made
and called forth tauul!uous applause.
