FROM BALTIMORE.

BALTIMORE, May 1.-The Nine
teenth Annual Session of the Ameri-
can Association. was held at / o clock
this morning, in the Concordia Build
ings. About two hundred delegates
were present. Mr.. N. II. StoTer, of
Boston, the President elected last
year, occupied the chair; Vice Presi-
dent DIR. Dunn, Almy, and Hippin,
and Secretary DR.. VIM. B. Atchinson,
of Philadelphia, and i. Morgan, of
Baltimore. present. The exspresi-
dent and ezPresident Of the Con
venti0A were invited to seats an the
platform.
Z The President called the meeting to
order. and in response to his sugges
.tion. DR.. G.. G. Cox, Chairman of the
Committee of Arrangements, wei
coined the members to the hospitality
of Baltimore, trusting that when leav-
ing they might bear with them many
pleasant "reminiscences of the Monu-
mental City.
DIR. Montrose A. Patton, who last
year was expelled from the Associa-
ton. was unanimously reinstated, bay
ing. been fully exhonerated by the
Committee to which the papers In his
ease were referred. DIR. Patton was
conducted by DR.. Cox, Orrway and
Sayre to the platform amid great ap-
plause and assent, himself much graft
| fed at the action of the Association.
The greatest enthusiasm and unanim-
ity prevailed.
Itlappears that the postages on the
European fiscal year amounted to
81, ,449, 900, of which the United States
Postofice received only $165, 900, the
balance accruing to foreign steamers.
A bill will probably be reported es-
tablishingz a weekly line of Mail
steamers to Europe, with the rate OF
compensation based on the probable
postal receipts, and In no event tC
exceed them.
The Department of State is in re-
ceipt of news from Europe, which
renders war extremely improbable
between Austria and Prussia. The
conduct of the latter power is gener
ally appreciated. The Queen of Eng
land has written letter to that Gov
ernment expressing its disapprobatior
of its bearing in the diplomatic inter
course with Austria, and strongl.

The stock from which he descended was that
strong stock known as the Scotch-irish' which
contributed another great man of the same name
Andrew Jackson, to the new world. Indeed, the
ancestry of these two heroic men, Andrew and L.

tionship have been adduced. The founder of the
