A VISIT TO CHICAGO.

In the discharge 01 the duty the committee dill gently spent the ?tn, eth and toth days of Decem ber. The whole management and control of the goaorsl rellel tund was louml to be In the bands of Die Chicago Relief and Aid bociety, of which Mr. Henry W. Ring is chairman, and the active dutlos of the society were commuted to an executive com mittee, oompoaed of the several chairmen of lm Kortant sub-committees?Mr. Wirt Dexter, ohalr tan. To the members of the soolety and ot the anb-oommittecs an introduction was obtained, and also to such other gerticinen who were devoted to llie work or relief and oouid be easily reached. Prom inll of them every isctiity and help was received in the prosecution of such inquiries and investigations iaa were desired and requested. By invitation the committee was present at heveral ineetiugB ol the E\ecutive Committee and permitted to listen to me reports of the chairmen of the several sub-committees, which were full and Inost Instructive; and to t ie debates thereon, that developed the oplnlous and views of policy ot the individual members, and showed the oonolufllous Nvhlch were reacued. The books of aooonnt were offered lor inspection; statements of the amount of contributions received und of disbursement aud of balances ot money on hund and where deposited, and on what terms tiei.l by the depositaries, were freely made, with un evident desire that nothing should be wltbneld from the knowledge or the com jnittee. Under the gnldance or memners of the society the committee visited and careiully Inspoctod tne depots of supply and distribution of lood ami cloth ing. and witnessed the mode of managing the vast and complicated work. Also sought and obtained satlsiaoiory knowledge or tho extent and import ance of the department entrusted to tne "Shelter Committee," which embraces the ooustrnotton of houses and "barracks" tor the suelter and protec tion, through the Inclement season, ol no less than forty thousand people; and also the construction of hospitals and provision tor the sick ana lnflrm. Tne aduilmstratiou ot other departments of this grand and imposing charity were also, with the aid of intelligent and willing friends, examined, and Bucta Information obtained regarding thorn as tame And opportunity permuted. Your committee lurtuer obtained the views and advice 01 promiueut gentlemen who were earnestly and constantly engaged in the work of reaof, but acting independently of tue Relief and Aid Society, and whose moans were procured from private sources. Evidence was thus lurnlslied that, to a very considerable extent, relief Is given to a class of deserving persons who bad lived In competency, If not luxury, and been suddenly reduced to abso lute destitution, but whose sensibilities forbade tbe obtaining of help through the ordinary channels, and who need to be sought out tbut aid might be given them In any form. In order to reach this class 01 Bufferers through tbe regular organisation of the society the "bureau or bpecial Relief" was created, and Is periorunng an Important work. The sources from which lnlormation nas been de rived are thus indicated, in order that a just opinion may be rormed of their reliability, lhe gentlemen composing tho Hoard of Directors of the Relict and Aid Society are anioug the leading citizens of Cnl cago. The chairmen ol the vatious sub committees were chosen lor their peculiar fitness for tueir re ?peotlvu offices, and, with one or two exceptions, Are exclusively devoted to the pnbllo service, hav ing for the time given up all attention to their pri vate affairs. Their devotion, courage aud un wearlod labor are worthy ot all admiration. Mention must also be made ol another source of Information, wuicb supplies the deficiencies or every other, and obviates the need of an extended report here upon the operations of the Chloago Society? namely, their owu lortncomtug "First Special Ko Port." This was prepared by the accomplished Chairman of the Executive Committee, whose warm sympathies and comprehensive benev olenoe are tempered and oontrolled by sound Judgment una eminent ability la the prac tical affairs ot the. Tuese qualities command, as they ought. Implicit ouuiidenoe. The clearness and fullness of tne report casts light on every branoh of the subject of ruiiel, and removes, It is believed, doubts that have oeeu entertained by some on sev eral Important points, and renders clear tne policy wnloh ougut to be pursued in disposing of tbe Gen pal llellei Fund, lue publication of tne report has been accidentally delayed, but iu appearance be sbon expected. Two subjects of imporianoc. on which members 3f the Executive UniuuuUoe ot New York oxpressed liferent views, led to the appointment of the Com mittee to visit Chicago?viz., that ol taking promis sory notes by tuo Mielter Committee iroiu the appli cants lor rellel fur the cost of nouses, upon whom shelter In any form wus supposed to be conferred as a free gut; aud, secondly, the expediency of directing the expenditure ol any considerable por tion of ino fund iu the hands of the oomuuttoe of lhe Chami>er ot Commerce to any other objects or in any other mode than those chosen by tbe Chicago Keilef aud Aid Society. As to the first, it is nowhere denied that tbe pro vision of shelter for the huuseless at this inclement season Is uearly as important lor the preserva tion of human lUe as food and raiment. Nor oouid delay be allowed wltnunt ratal oonso 4ueuces. The society, therefore, acted promptly, and adopted tne unly plan which to them Seemed leaslblo?that of building houses or "barracks" themselves, or of furnishing material to those applicants tor relief wuo were owners or lessees of low, to construot houses on their own land. To all persons wno wets round to be wormy and destitute the house was given. Those who had no presont means, but admitted that ihoy possessed or were deemed by the Shelter Committee to pos aees tbe ability to repay the cost of the house, were required to give notes having a year lo run. Oniy from a small number asve suob uotes been received, and of these notes but a portion will probably be ooiicotcd. Whatever amount may be collected la to be applied to the purposes tor wnich the original sum was bestowed. Tlte device of exacting a note is iouna to be a safeguard against the artifices ol the numerous impostors wno seek to obtain aid on picas of pretended loss and destitution. The bheltor Committee 1b a complete success. The results show that the measure was wisely conceived aud has oeeu vigorously prose cuted ou principles wnloh ought to control the management of great business uuteprlses. Whou It Is considered that tho absolute con trol tf tno Relief Fund and the mode ol dis pensing the vast contributions of money and ma tei lal have been committed by the authorities and Deopio of Cnioago to the Keiier and AM Society, aud was thus bestowed because ol tho known lit ucss of tbe citizens so chosen to till the Important trusts committed to tneai, and when it Is further known that the so ciety hus thus lur dischaiged Its duties with eminent ability aud success, lucro seems to be no rcasouaulc ground for wltuholdiug entire confidence In the wisdom ol their plans or tho integrity ol tholr execution. It docs not seem possible that any other agency could bo well perforin these duties, aud tneiciore, lu the opinion of tno committee, tuo ffuai appropriation oi tne principal part ol the lund iu the iiauds of the New Vork committee should be confided io the Chicago Relief and Aid Sooiety. At present the soclutv has ou baud in Us varions depositaries about seventeen hundred thousand dollars. Until tills sum snail be expended tne turn! held l>y the New York committee ought to remain at the credit of their treasurer in Its oreseut sale place of deposit on liucresi, and be drawn nut only as It may be roqulred for immediate d soursemeut. Your committee made It a part of his duty to in quire into tbe mode in w hlcn benefactions were distributed liial were kuown lo be entrusted to pri vate nueuclos. Of this oiass were the girts of Mr. A. T. Stewart and those wnich were disbursed by Mr. John crerar. lhe frieuds ol tat. Stewart, to whom his wishes were expressed, wero caieiully following his Instructions, and had employed an experienced member ol the Chicago Kcliel aud Aid aociety to examine personally into the chnracter and cir cumstances of every applicant lor a portion ol the fund, aud ou his written report ihe grant of relief was innoe to depend. This fund la being gradually expended, and the wishes of me generous deuor are regarded with all fidelity. Mr. Crerar exhibited latltisctory evidence that tuo various sums or inoiioy entrusted to lutu nad reached me parlies for whom tlioy were intended, ami tnut the record and vouchers of each transaction were preserved for preseuiailon to the donors. The history ol otucr contributions of similar character aud large uuiouut was imparted to your committee, and in every case proved most satisfac tory. Tbe result of the foregoing Inquiry Into the his tory ol special rellel suggesis a mode in which Inde pendent or private contributions may be aaieiy transmitted aud seemed to the intended recipients. A nou-resident of Chicago cannot be so competent a judge of what each case demands aa one of tbe nu merous band of active, devoted and Intelligent la borers who constantly toll on the field and gather knowledge and power from duly experience. Among these a reliable agent may oaslly be found. In every case which came to tho knowledge ol your committee where largo contributions were distribu ted under tbe direction of distant donors the man agement was unsuccessful and the land almost wasted. For a knowledge of the state of tho finances of tho Chicago Relief and aid Society rorerouce is made to llie accounts herewith submitted. Notwithstanding tne large Amount of contribution* aoch la ibe acaio of expenditure that tlie work of relief can be btrdLr 2??1?',1t,Droufih th? n*.Xi ??"nmer without an ad ditional israe sum. In view oi tula fact tue Society alms to practice economy in every possible way. The work assigned to Hie Keuef aud Aid Society was to feed, clothe, shelter and warm loo noo oef dona, who bad been stripped of all their property and reduced to complete destitution an undertaking even juvre difficult than that of relieving a defeated and disorganised army of equal numbers In a hos tile and exhausted country. As an evidence of the fitness of the society to bear the vast responsibility and powers thus conferred, it Is only necessary to cite the results ol the labors of sixty days. Already order has been brought out of chaos, risid disci pline has been Infused Into every brauch of the ser vice; provisions, clothing and loel are regularly distributed in ample quantities; shelter has been provided (or the houseless, hospitals have been completed and a health department established, with an eminent medical head. Ability, Integrity and devotion appear to have marked the work. Numerous societies, organizations, and indi viduals are engaged in distributing relief indepen dently of the Aid Society, who dispense special or private contributions, and whose ministrations of mercy are bestowed on numerous classes ot suffer ers who cannot be reached in any other way. Of these the committee nave to utter praise. They are performing a most important work. KING8 COUNTY PENITENTIARYKEEPERSHIP The Long Agony Over?Termination of the Fight?Charges of Bribery in the Ques tion?Diatriot Engineer Shevlin the Appointee?A Lively Session. The Chambers of the Kings Oonnty Board of Supervisors were thronged to repletion half an hour before the time appointed for tne meeting of that august body, three o'clock, by about as orowd of politicians and harpies as ever assembled m the County Court House. The great sensation was tne long-fought question as to "who snail tie Keeper or the Penitentiary The office is worth to ooo per annum. The interest centres In the faot that a light haa been going on between the leaders of the regulars or "the ring" and a "apiit" and republican combination, which has been effected by Supervisor Dick Newman. James shevlin, of the Firth ward, District Engineer, is the oholoe of the democratic powers, and the quarrel was therefore a stubborn one. His Honor Mayor Kaibfletsch, an ex officio member of the Board, occupied hts position m the charmed circle. William J. Osborn, Supervisor at Large, presided. The member from the Eleventh ward moved that the reading of the minutes be dispensed with. Lost-fourteen voting in the negative to eleven in the affirmative. The bills of the Court officers?amounting to about three thousand two hundred dollars in the aggre gate for the month of November-wero reported by the Auditor, and their payment directed by a vote Supervisor Habkan said that $88,000 were paid annually to political strikers appointed as court officers merely lor services rendered totheparty. Formerly the labors were performed for $8,000 a year. It was a iraud upon the taxpayers, and he would offer a resolution upon the subject at the proper tune. In each month these officials are cer tified as having served twenty-six days, whereas we know that no Court sits that number of days In any one month. Not one-half of these people were re quired to discharge the duties. Tne Keeper of the Penitentiary reported that tno total number of pnsonors in that Institution on De cember 1 was 481, of which 332 were males and 14? females. The amount of money earned during that period by the convicts la tne shoe shop was Xhe* question of appointment of Keeper of the penitentiary, which was mado the special order of business at the last meeting, was then called up, when supervisor Johnson said that he had been ZiZSntii hi?aouroe which was entirely reliable, ftS?Smnberof thiB Board had been offered a L in irreeabaoks to vote tor Shevlin.

About ball-pant eleven o'clock yesterday morning a frlghUul accident occurred In tbo drug mills cor ner ot Jefferson and Monroe streets, by wblch Cbarlcs Mills, a lad thirteen years of ago, lost tils lire. Charles, who was employed In the place, thoughtlessly ventured loo near a horizontal shaft, which was revolving at a rapid rate, when his apron caught la some por tion or tno machinery and drew him on the abaft, situated only a few inebos from the floor., lu his revolutions around the shaft the boy's skull was crushed ami bis drains scattered over the floor, and nearly every bone In his body was fractnred. The machinery was stopped as soon as possible and Special officer Ward, of tne Seventh precinct, being uear was called In and assisted in gatnerlng up the remains, wblch wero placed in a box. Several men and boys who worked In the mills were compelled to witness the crushing to death or their companion without being abte to render any relief. It la said there was no guard or protection around the shurt to prevent persons rrom being caught in the machinery, and u blame rests with anv one an Investigation will determine. Coroner Hcbtrmer will hold an inquest on Thursday. The parents of deceased live at ?1 Sherlfl atreet. MADB A BAD JOB OF IT. A rather well-dressed young woman named Lizzie Kersag, whose affected innocence and mod esty were well calculated to deceive, waa yesterday arraigned at the Yorzvtlle Polloe Court, charged with robbing William J. Sharkey, or No. llo Yarick atreet, or a $so bill. Sharkey testified that he and the prisoner, at her solicitation, went to a house lu East Seventy-fourth street, and that while there she robbed him of the above amount. ??Well, Lizzie,'' said the Justice, "where is that bill r? Lisste, with a toes or her pretty head and an en gaging smile, meant to captivate the Jnstice, re plied, "1 hare had no $M bill. I with 1 oould but get one." The court?1 am afraid, Lizzie, yon hare made a bad )ob ol It this time, it will be a dear |60 to you before you get through with it; for, as far as I am conoerued, I am determined to keep aooh business as this out of this district, if the police wUl but co operate with me and do their duly. You are com mitted in default of ball to answer. The smile on the lips or Luzio at this announcement faded like a anow flako lu a pool of water, and She went down iaus o urn inn those abeut bar. flNMCUL mMltCIAL, WALL STREET, Tuesday, Dec. 19-a P. M. f On 'Change to-day wheat was inactive and heavy. The cotton market was quiet and steady. TOE EXPORTS OP THE WERE. The aggregate exports (exclusive of specie) from the port of New York to foreign ports for the week ending December 10. 1871, were $5,338,500. MONEY STRINGENT. The money market wua stringent, and the rate on call ranged irom 7 per ceat per annum to 3-16 per cent per diem. The fear of a scarcity of fnuds to-day started borrowers out at an early honr, with the result of making the market active and stringent from the very beginning. The chief occupation of the dealers In money was in "turn ing" stooks, for which 1-10 a V per cent was quite readily paid, In addition, In many instances, to 7 per cent. The "squeeze" started a good deal of speculation In loans, and the market was, to use the technioal expression, ??over-borrowed." Hence as three o'clock approached there was a nervous anxiety on the part of these "over-borrowers" to make a place for their money, and in their necessity to And a resting place they pressed baianoes down to as low as seven per oent ourrenoy. This rate lasted for a few minutes only, and was quickly succeeded by transactions at 1-82 a 1-16 per cent. The last dealings were over at an earlier hour than usual Tor nearly a week, the brokers having, as above noted, started early and mado their engagements In good season. Tne present scarcity of money has foroed the larger holders of Blocks to adopt the old plan of borrowing bills of exchange, and hence a DECLINE IN STERLING of about v per cent, resulting from sales ont o f econd hands, tho reduction at Mie counter by tho leading drawers being only V per cent?via., to 109)* for prime sixty day sterling and 103V for lght bills. Tho process by which the cliques "carry" stocks with bills or exchange amounts virtually to borrowing money In Europe for the pur pose, and while somewhat too intricate for brief ex planation Is rally understood In financial circles. Tho banks are steadily con'ractlng their accommoda tions to Wall streot In order to meet the demand for money in the interior, and especially at Chicago, whither the insurance companies are transmitting 1 large amounts In settlement of Insurance losses. There was also a farther disturbance or loans inci dental to the transfer of city moneys from tho 1 Broadway to the Park Bank, which latter tnstltu- i tion will probably be the future depository of the Comptroller and Chamoerloln. THE OCEAN BANK affair was brought into fresh notice to-day by the lallure of the Fourth National Bank ot Philadelphia, a small concern, kept afloat by what now appears to be a credit of $50,000 in the Ocean Bank of Now York, which was an entire gratuity so rar as the lat ter was concerned, but an lmpecnnlous one so far as the formor was likely to benefit by it, except In staving off tne day or dissolution. It was 1 a case of Pig drawing on Pork, and might do ubtlcss nave continued to servo Its purpose 1 many a dav longer did not the "New York Cor- respondent" go uuder and tumble the whole super structure of credit. Washington despatches sfate that the Comptroller 1 of the Currency has called for a statement oi the national banks as thev stood at the close of business on Saturday last, December 18. The Clearing Ilou3e Committee are acting aa bank examiners for this district until they agree on a successor to Mr. Cal lender. Prime paper was neglected, and quoted at a io per cent discount. GOLD WRAk?10911 A 108 V The gold market was weak witn tho decline In ex change, and fell off from 109 v to 109. Here It was subjected to heavy sales by the stocx cliques, who, In utilizing the bills of exchange borrowed by them as above referred to, loaned tho gold lor to-day and sold It for to-morrow, thns securing currency for the oarrylng of their stocks. Tne determination to sell in place of lending to-morrow was douoiless Influenced by tho terms of oasn gold to-day. The offering of tois gold late in the afternoon occasioned a decline to lOftV, the lowest point since Jniy 2, 1882. The course of the market Is shown in the table:? 10 A.

Gold cleared $40,681,000 Gold balances 1,796,088 Currency balances 2,489,838 GOVERNMENTS LOWER. The stringency In money which was felt to the extent of 7 per cent coin among tne government dealers, the lowor ruling of gold and a tame and lower market in London, Induced a weaker feeling in the go ument list, but without occasioning more than a trifling deollne. The market was dull throughout, and closed with the fol lowing street quotations:?United H tales cur rency sixes, liav a U3V; do. da, 1881, regis iered, 113V 174; do. do., coupon, 117 V a 117 V; do. flve-twentles, registered, May and November, 109V a 110; da da, 1862, coupon, do., 109V a 110; do. do., 1864, do. da, no a nov; do. do., 1866, do. do., Ill v a 111 V; da da, registered, January and July, lliv a 111V; da da, 1866, coupon, da, 113V a 114; da do., 1807, do. do., nov a H6V: do. do., 1868, do. do., 115V a 115V; da, lives of 1881, funded, registered, loov a 109,v; do. do. do., coupon, loov a 109V; do. ten.foriies, registered, iosv a 109; da do., coupon, 109 v a 109.V SOUTHERN SECURITIES LOWER.
