We have received, from the Hon. Richard Vaut, President of tbe Hoard, an advanoe copy of the Thirty-eighth Annual Report of the In epectors of the Eastern Penitentiary, showing tbe operations of that Institution during tbe year I860. The report Is a large pamphlet of 131 pegcs, and contains many facts of importance, especially to those who are Interested In th punishment and ' prevention of crime. Tbe present officers of tbe Prison consist of the fol lowing gentlemen: .... Inspectors Richard Van, Alexander Tlenry, Thomas H. Powers, Funuan fclheppard, and Anthony J. Drexel. President of the Board Richard Vans. Treasurer Furman Hheppard. Secretary Thomas H. Powers. Warden John a. Halloway. Resident Physician Henry M. Klapp, M. D. , Moral Instructor ltev, John Ruth. ' Clerk A. J. Ourt, M. D. At the outKet of their report, the Inspectors state that there has been a notable Increase in crime during tbe past year, not only la our own State, but throughout thecountry. They regret the present tendency of the Inhabitants of the rnral districts to migrate to the great centres of population, which Is most unfortunate, and may be traced to the generally received opinlou that in these more densely populated commu nities the equality of all in ilia race for wen ltd is forced by a universal effort to secure it. The tendency of tbe young to live without labor is increasing, any means of obtaining a livelihood being considered preferable to manual labor by them. These facta tbe Inspectors Justly regard as Inimical to the real welfare of a people. In this connection, tbe report preseuts a valu able series of tables, exhibiting the compara tive condition of crime In the cities of Phila delphia and New York during the years IHtii and 1806, from which we extract the following: Stntenctd by the Oourtt. Rcniarkt. To Btate Prison In 1RM To State Prison in 186.... Increase of 18CA over 1865 Decrease.... SIM 45 67 329 excess In N.Y. 66 429 excess In N.Y. S9 In New York. 1 In Philadelphia.

And when we remember that the aotual Increase In tbe population of this city Is much greater than the above esti mate, the figures become even more favorable to our own moral condition; while it Is well known that New York has actually decreased in population, although the number or Its con victed criminals has increased by nearly 33 par cent. .

Crimes are thus engendered like diseases, for In each a pestilential pre disposition exists, and the favorloe nrlnclDle of contact , unresisted by constitutional ability, ripens into mataaies ana crimes, it Deoomes therefore of singular Importance that the subject of our social condition should ever be carefully considered by the Christian philan thropist, as well as tbe enllehtened statesman. iu uiuer mat iy tue wisest, legislation, ana the most comprehensive benevolence, preventive and remedial agencies may be established to correct and render Innocuous those inherent causes of crime, in communities in which civi lization ceases to be beuenceut when it rails to be nervadlnc" The Report further claims that "the Increase of crime at tbe present time should therefore be less considered as a trausltoty or exceptional condition of society, tbuc us presenting the urgent necessity for a careful examination luto our system of social polity." The Eastern Penitentiary was established in isi, Bluce then the population of the Eastern district and the number of prisoners received Into the Pen itentlury have been as follows, at stated periods: Prisoners iear. . Population. Received. 1S30 : ,55,577 49 1S40 1,108,300 139 1850 1,5(JX,737..; 150 1800 2,009,811 259 1S00 . 2,203,410 301 A comparison or these figures shows that, nlttiough the fucrease In the population has been only a little over 300 per cent., the increase iu tbe number of prisoners received yearly has been more than 700 per cent., while the Indica tions of the last two yeaiB are that the percen tage la the luoreuse of convicts will not diminish. "These facts," says the Report, "fall in any teaching. If they do not awaken In the rellective mind the conclusion that penal soleuce Is be coming of necessity an element in civilization; All eflorls to attain true civilisation must ussuredly iail, unless directed to the Individual condition of each member of the community The highest state of social condition being the objective lact to be reached, it can only be attained by the conviction that society 1 but the aggregation of- Individuals lti harmo nious unity. Therefore it is tbe theory of the Pennsylvania system of penitentiary discipline rests on the philosophy of the Indi vidual and personal relation of each convict to this system. For nearly a quarter of a ceutury lbeadvocal.es of the separate system of peni tentiary discipline have not only expressed their faith in this theory, but they have also ? early presented facta by which to piove Us ruth. Altersuch a period of experiment, it may now be permitted to slate, as the result ascer tained, that the best system of punishment for crime is the Individual system, as distinguished from class or congregational discipline. The Jvlvtt wUvb for so loug ft lime bcui occupied tue, ntilnformf mind, that solltnde and Isolation were the only Interpretations of the Pennyl--vania plan, baa been foreed to yield to that truer and more peifect translation of our sys tem which is presented under the hlnher sig nification of the individual or personal treat ment of those convicted of primes against social happiness, or the laws whleU create and protect it." On tbe 1st or January there were 69 prison ers In the Penitentiary; but as there are only 640 cells, it has been necessary to put more than one in some of them. The eflect of this has been prejudlclxl to the system of discipline. The Inspectors therefore insist pn Hie neces sity for enlarging the first block of the Peni tentiary. They propose, la a special report to the legislature, to put a second story on this block, end to Increase Its length, so that It hall be equal In size to the seventh block. In tliis way accommodations for 104 additional prisonera may be obtained. (Seventeen months will be required to complete the alteration, and tbe expetiNe will be about $167,000. The sut lect of letting out to contractors the labor of the convicts is discussed at length In tbe report, and severely condemned. ' Following the report are several voluminous tables, giving the prominent characteristics of tbe dlllerent prisoners. Ti e sexes and colors of the CGI who were ad mitted dnring the year were as follows: While males., ...78 231 . 812 White females , 5 6 10 Tolal Whiles.. 33 239 322 Mulatto males 9 8 . 17 Mulatto females. 1 2 3 Total mol at toes ...10 10 20 Black males. .. 7 13 ,20 Black females 1 1 2 Total blacks.......... 8 li . 22 Total males .'. ...91 255 349 Total females 7 8 ' 15 .

Among the number there were 151 who had fol lowed the occupation of laborers, 17 who had been boatmen and Ration, 9 who bad gained their livelilioodln various fvays connected with taverns, 16 who were waiters or servants, and 16 who bad . followed no particular occupation. The remaining lb5 were distributed among 61 different occupations. , The nativities of those received were as fol lows: Pennsylvanln... 208; British America 10 Northern Statos s1 Ireland 80 Southern folates.., 29 Other parts of Ureat Britain 13 Europe 25 Afrlcu 1 Total born In U. 8... 285 Total foreign 79 - The employments in the Prison of those re ceived were as follows: Cordwalners 48 Shoeflttlng , 20 Caning 98 Chalrmaking 7 Cooking, elo 2 Jobbing 17 Weavinir...

The average of tbe sentences was 2 years, 8 months, and 25 days. For 1805 tbe average was 8 years and S34 days; and for 1864 It was 3 year, 6 months, and 6 days. Of the whole number received, 816 were serv ing out their first conviction, 81 the second, 10 the third, 5 the fourth, and 2 the fifth. Since tbe reception of tbe first convict, October 25, 1829, tbe number of whiles received has been 4448; tbe number of blacks, 1236; giving a total of 5684. Of these there have been discharge, 1 In various ways 8942 whites, and 1173 blacks a total of 6115. . The Moral Instructor reports that during the year he has made 6923 visits to the ditlnrent prisoners, or an average of about 9 to each In dividual, ile has also circulated among them 32.550 pages of religious reading, in the torra of tracts and Sunday School papers, while nearly 30 per cont. of the Inmates have been on the school rolls, with very gratifying results. ; JEFF. DAVIS. 11 E PTILL REMAINS AT THE NEW YORK HOTEL HIS PROBABLE ; PEPAKTUBE FOR MONTREAL . TO i MORROW. . i Mr, Davis still remains at the New York Hotel. It is stated that he has been laboring under an attack of indisposition, which, although not very severe, compelled him to defer his projected visit to . his children in Canada. From the time of his arrival he has not once left the hotel, and has not even stirred from his : rooms. Should he be well enough, he will probably leave New York to-morrow evening for Montreal. Yesterday comparatively few visitors called to see him throughout the day, but in the evening the thronged condition of the hotel showed that he was still an object of consider able interest to the large number of his former adherents who have removed, since the break-; ing up of the Rebellion, to this city. The character of the gentlemen present was pretty conclusively indicated by an occasional grey coat, which, however, was of oourse shorn of its original round brass buttons. His nephew, General Davis, circulates freely ahout the hotel, but seems extremely anxious to keep the movements of his uncle as secret and as private as possible. He professes to have no positive information as to Mr. Davis' departure, or as to his future plans. : DAVIS'. RECEPTION IN CANADA. j JEFF.' DAVIS TO RECEIVE THE HOSPITALITY OP THE CITY OF MONTREAL THE SEMI-OPFICIAL JOUR NAL ON THE MATTER THE MAYOR TUE DAVIS FAMILY UOW THEY LIVE, ETC. ! j Montreal, C. E., May 16. The Minerva (French semi-official journal here) tells its readers that ."Mr. Davis, the heroio President of the late Southern Confederacy, may be looked for to-day or to-morrow," and that ,"the city will be proud to give him its hospi tality." No doubt the paper speaks by autho rity, . and the Mayor being a Mr, Starnes, a man who is devoted to the party in power aud shares their pro-Confederate (Southern) views, it is very likely that Davis on his arri val will receive something like the hospitality of the city. ' , ' i The nresent Ministry have taken the tona from England, and spoken unofficially in favor of tbe late Rebel concern, and grieved for its sudden downfall; they were also jubilant at the apparent establishment of an empire in Mexico, and lachrymose as its sudden dissolu tion. Therefore it may be inferred that there will be shaking of hands and a good deal of ether 'nonsense between Davis and the con servative, t. ., the anti-American party, ou that great offender's arrival here. ,;, ' TUB DAVIS FAUILTa Pjivis comea to see hia children, it is re ported. They are at school, while Mr. Howell and Miss Howell, with "Willie," live on Little St. James street, in a house formerly occupied by Dr. Nelson, who was concerned in the insurrections of 1837-38. The street is narrow and the house an old one of three stories. The family live plainly aud very quietly. Mrs. Howell may be Bees occasion-' ally, sitting reading at the window, her white hair attracting attention to her. 1 Of Miss Howell very little is seen. ' ' . They shifted about a good ' deal at first, having lived in the west end, the north end, and the east end of the city, living longest on Richmond square. Now they live in ' the centre of the city. It will be a joyful sight for them to see old Jeff after so long an absence. Of the children, the young girl is at the con vent of Le Sacr6 Cceur (the Sacred Heart) and the boy Is at the Lennoxville College. They will come to Montreal to see their liberated father. N. Y.

If you go on with tbls rioting, by tbe eternal God I will throw grape and canister into you. Now disperse, and go to your homes, or to your work." The mob Immediately dispersed.

The following letter from Lucy Stone was re ceived too late to be read at the recent anniver sary In New York: Lawrknob. Kansas. Mav 6. My Dear Miss Anthony: I hope your Convention will not fall to set in in its true light the position of those editors In New York who are branding as "tbe Infamous thirteen" the men who in tho New Jersey Legislature voted against negro suffrage, while they themselves give the whole weight of their Journals against woman's right to vote. They use the terms "universal aud impartial suffrage," when they mean only negro suffrage; and thev do it to hide a dark skin, and an unpopulor client. They know that "a lie will keep Us throne a whole age longer If it skulk behind the shadow of some lair seem ing name. In New Jersey, a negro father is legally entitled to his children, but no mother lu New Jersey, black or white, has any legal right to her children. In New Jersey a widow may live firtydays in the house of her deceased husband without f aying rent, but the negro widower, Just like be white widower, may remain in undis turbed possession of bouse aud property. A negro man can sell his real estate, and make a valid deed, but no wife in that Btate can do so without -her husbamd's consent. A negro man in New Jersey may will all his proerty as he pleases, but no wife in the Stale can will her personal property at all, and if she will her real estate with her husband's consent, be may revoke that consent any time before Hie wilt is admitted to probate, thus rendering her will null and void. The women of New Jersey went to the Legislature last wiuter on their own petltion.for iherlghtof suffrage. Twenty three members voted for them, thirty-two voted' against them.- But the editors .who now find unmeasured words to express their contempt lor "the infamousjfthiiieeu" who voted against the negro, were as dumb us death When this vole was cast against womeu. The Washington correspoudent of the New York tribune says ' that Charles Bumner "J Thaddeu Stevens give it as their oploiou that New Jersey will not have a republican form of govemment until they put the word out of their Constitution. 'Do these gentleniou mean to say lhat when New Jersey "'vBe herbooo negro men .tbe vote A'i,, i ti ooo republican form of government, while women of that Ktate are mill ith out t? ana not only without it. but blasted by laws which are a disgrace to tho-clvJlhV''" tu neeroranlai1R,ebr w r'edbrave boyTlnnAnd thwir bones, thes. VorIawiL are to ba pulliXdavW? right "Vo Ukeb,t awav or Vhat o?lme are American women rulltv that they are to be compelled to stand on a icQticai piatlorm with anon men aa these i IM uo wan vU-hui that bhUojiiU prosperity au'A ficacecan be secured by merely giving BtiffVaire." o colored men. while tbat saoredrlght is denied tomilllonsof American womeu. Tbat scanty shred of Justice, good as far aa it goes, Is utterly Inadequate to meet the emergency of this hour. Men of every race and color may vote, but if. the women are excluded our legislation will' till lack that moral tone for want of which the ration is to-day drifting towards ruin. - There is no olber name given by which the country can be saved but tbat of woman. "Gov ernments derive their Just powers from the consent of the governed." women' are gov-1 erned. Negroes are governed, and lAouM glr their consent. Will men never r learn that a principle which God has made true JIVi has also made it safe to apply? Ay, more, that a principle He has made true, It is not sale not to' apply f The problem for the American states men to-day is no narrow question of races, but bow to embody In our Institutions a guarantee1 for the rights of every citizen. The solution Is easy. Base government on the consent of the governed, and each class will protect itself. ' Put' this one great principle of universal suffrage,. Irrespective of sex or color, Into the foundation ' of our temple of Liberty, and it will rise in fair and beautllul proportions. "Without the sound of a hammer, or the noise of any instru ment," lo stand at last "perfect and entire, wauling nothing." Omit It, and only "He whe sees tbe end from the beginning" knows Ibronwhat other national woes we must be driven, befoie we learu that the path of Justice, is the only path to peace aud safety.
