of the inside workings of the Baltimore Yankee Convention. It says: It now turns cut that the admittance of the Southern delegations was brought about by the Seward men in the New York delegation. A little midnight three or four of the leaders in that wing came to an understanding with the delegation, which secured the latter against Dickinson, for whom they had intended to east their vote, and go for Johnson. The same men about one o'clock this morning secured an interview with Mr Maynard, of Tennessee, and a portion of the Louisiana delegation. They pledged a majority of the New York delegation the assistance of the vote of Ohio for their full admittance to the Convention if they would stand by the Seward wing of New York delegation. This proposition was agreed to, hence the sequel of Presion King's motion to amend the report of his own committee giving these delegations the right to vote. On this point the Southern delegation and the nomination of Johnson for Vice

Wm D Quinn, a paroled Yankee, was also arraigned for drunkenness. When asked by the Mayor what he was doing here, he replied that he was working at the shoemaking business for Major Maynard, who gave him the privilege of walking about the city after six o'clock in the evening. He had been a United States soldier, and was brought to this city a prisoner. Recently the privilege was offered him by the Confederate Government of returning to the North, but he preferred remaining here, and therefore declined the opportunity. The Mayor committed him to jail for further inquiry into the matter. Mary C Jenkins, a white girl about twelve or thirteen years of age, who stated t

Stephen M. Fisher testified that Shumaker brought the horse to his mother, and asked if he could be put in her stable for a short while, as he had no where to keep him, Capt. Maynard having declined accommodations any longer at the Government stables. The prisoner, Fisher said, claimed to be a courier Jer Gen. Mahone, and to have purchased the animal from the captain of his company. George Drew, a free negro, but who has every appearance of being a while man, was heard upon the charge of stealing four cows from Dr. Francis H. Deane. Officer Granger arrested Drew on Monday morning and testified that when asked to explain how he came to steal the cows, the priso

ged with drunkenness and lying on the sidewalk. Upon hearing the testimony of the watchman who made the arrest, the Mayor determined to commit him to jail; but, as he was about leaving the court- room for that place, a note was received from Major Maynard, the head of the Government shoe shop on Navy Hill, stating that Mac had been given permission to go about the city on the day of his arrest as a reward for meritorious services, when, having a little money, he imbibed too freely. In accordance with Major Maynard's request, he was sent back to his place of employment.--Henry Winston, charged with participating in the burglarious robbery of Alexander R.

ds. Benjamin Lancaster, John W. Steel, Peter Lilly and James Smith, while under the influence of liquor on Monday night, at the Theatre, created such disorder as to necessitate their arrest and commitment to the cage. During their removal thereto, Lancaster used the butt end of a heavy pistol very severely over Philip Vaughn's head, (a Theatre policeman,) injuring him so severely as to prevent him from appearing to testify. On this account the matter was continued till this morning. Eliza, slave of Mrs. Maynard, arrested as a supposed runaway while in the Second Market selling apples believed to have been stolen, was committed to jail till such time as her mistress can be heard from. The charge of using threatening and insulting language towards Mrs. Frances Vaughan, preferred some days since against Mary, the slave of Mrs. Mildred Watson, was further continued on account of the absence of the complainant. The court then adjourned till nine o'clock this morning.
