ATremrt to Break Jain —Subsequent At- tempt to Commit Suicide —About 7 o'clock last nigbt, Officer Waters, at the Washington jail, in ing the cell in which Wrangy Jones, Bil ‘aylor, John Hall and Frank Elliott are i thonght he heard sounds as of some one = trying to pick through the wall. He proceeded to the so and the inmates, who were standing together near the window, scattered about the room on hearing him at the cell door. On enter- ing. he found them hard at work playing domi- noes—apparently deeply interested in the game. His suspicions had been aroused. however, and he kept watch about the ages for some time, and finally about 10 o'clock he entered the cell ad- joining, and on applying his ear tothe wall could plainly hear the prisoners working away at the wall between them and the cell where he was. He immediately proceeded to the cell, and, open- ing the door suddenly, discovered Wrangy Jones ont bis companions rapidly removing the bricks from the wall with a long strip of steel, resemb- ling an old fashioned screw-driver, and an old case-knife. As soon as they were discovered they relinquished their toil and surrendered their tools to the jailor. They were operating in a direction to get through to the west side of the Jali, where the surrounding wall is quite low, aad can be easily scaled with the assistance of such lumber as can be found lying about that portion of the yard. Had (hey been left to themselves a couple of hours longer, they would have been completely successful in their attempt, as the bars of the out- side ceil, into which they were entering. are very ure, and may be forced out with but little ble. They bad made a —_— hole in the wall, ‘within four inches of its outside surface. with f the above tools. When the jailor questioned Jones as to how he obtained the implements, he auswered that they were thrown over the jail ‘wali into the yard, where the prisoners are per- mitted to walk every morning. end he bad con- ey: them about his person through the day. is morning, about eight v’clock, Wrangy fones, went into the cell of J. Stoddard and stole s ease of razors, with which he proceeded to his ywn cell, and shutting himself in made a slight rash across his throat with one of them. The thing was done with so little regard to any seri- ous effect that it is looked upon by all the officers and the attending re. Dr. Bradley, as another attempt at the ‘‘finger-nail-biting’’ game ‘which was used before the jury to show insanity onshis part at his late trial for attempting to mur- der bis old sweetheart. Thecut was some three- foutths of an inch in length and one-eighth inch inp and some distance from the juguiar . He was immediately attended by Doctor Bradley, who dressed the wonnd.

Frire.—Last night, the firemen throughout the city were called out by a brilliant light in the di- rection of the river. They carried their appara- tus far enough to discover that they could be of no service, and returned to their engine houses. About the same time some boys erected a tower of barrels for the purpose of making a bo: in _ the Fourth Ward, beyond the county jail. Of- | fleer McHenry arrested one of the party, and threw down the barrels. After a short lecture the boy was dismissed.

Kimmel, was taken to the police office of Justice Donn by aman named Green, who accused her of trying to steal his cow. It appears that the old woman is so feeble that ber master allows her to do what work she thinks oper, and she takes care of his cow, and drives rinat “milking time.” This morning, she, being near-sighted. mistook Mr. Green's cow for her master’s, and started her toward the stable. Green saw her and had ber arrested. fer char- acter for honesty was shown to be excellent, and she was dismissed.

SpPecTATOR. SS The Nevasink Tragedy. The trial of Dr. James P. Donnelly, formerly of this city, charged with the murder of Moses, at the Sea View House, New Jersey, was continued on Tuesday, at Freehold, N Medical testimony was received relative to the nature of the wound, and witnesses were exam- ined as to the circumstances connected with the death of Moses. William A. Smith, proprietor of the Sea View House, testified that he called Donnelly about bs a. m., the morning of the Ist of August, and to! him it was time to get up and call the servants; Donnelly answered * All right;”’ after he call him he returned to bis room, No. 2S, on the sec- ond floor; there was a roofed piazza on the second floor, in front of his room, the steps from which led to the yard; returned to his room he partially dressed himself and went down stairs; asked the porter if Donnelly had come down yet; he bad not; the porter went up tocall him, and came down again; Donnelly came down shortly after, at five o’clock—perhaps a little later; Donnelly, when he came down, unlocked the safe, took the books out and laid them on the desk; witness leit him doing this, and went upto his own roomand finished dressing himself; he staid in his room about'ten minutes, when be heard a stifled cry of murder, and.a great noise on the floor above, as of persons running around; Le went out into the hall, and the first thing he saw was Donnelly, some ten or fifteen feet from his room door; he was coming towards the witness, running; he ran into the back piazza, on the second floor; as he passed, witness spoke to him and told him to stop; he did not stop until he got on the piazza; witness went out after him; Donnelly appeared very much excited; witness asked him what the matter was, repeatedly, before he received a re- Ve fenaeas or twenty times; during this time the prisoner was walking backwards and forwards across the end of the piazza, near the kitchen; witness stood on the piazza between the steps an the prisoner; the latter acted like a madman—ap- peared to be perfectly crazy; they were on the pi- azza five or ten minutes; the first words of the prisoner were, ‘ He's dead! he’s dead!” witne<s asked ‘‘ Who?” Donnelly said he did not know; witness then wept up stairs, leaving Donnelly on the piazza; there was blood in the hall, on’ the third floor of the back building; witness went up the back stairs, and found Moses lying on the bed, blecding profusely. Witness went out for a physician, and on his return he saw Donnelly at the top of the front steps of the house leading from the yard to the of- fice; he was just going oP these steps; he stepped into the floor of the hall and leaned against the frame of the front door ; he looked i and rather excited; witness asked hin nelly, can’t you do something for the His first ey was ‘Yes,’ afterwards he said “No."? Nothing more was then said, to witness’ knowledge; Donnelly was dressed in white pants and yray coat when Witness first met him in the entry; early in the morning when he came down to the office he had the same suit on. and the same when he was leaning against the doorway; about half an hour afterwards he noticed that be had other clothes on—a black coat and dark brown — this time he wore thick clothes, before e had on thin clothes Witness further testified that the prisoner had previously a dirk in his possession, which could not be found after the tragedy. The New York Times, says: ‘* The trial creates no excitement at Freehold. although, of course,a good deal of interest is manifested by the se gag by whom the Court room is par jally filled. The fair and most cu- rious sex is well represented, occupying the gal- lery. The prisoner sits by his counsel with an air exceedingly nonchalant, reads the newspapers with avidity, occasionally looks over the papers in the case, and lznghe easily whenever anythi laughable is said by either of the counsel. appears to be either careless of the result or cer- tain of an acquittal. He is a man of medinm size, with long, dark, curly hair and blue eyes. He is dressed in a new suit of black. During some parts of the important testimony of the proprietor of the Seaview House, the ‘prisoner ‘was very pale, but there were no other external evidences of its effect upon him. Mr. Smith’s testimony will be continued during the after- noon. y white ATTENTION : ATTENTION! GEO. H. VARNELL, HOUSE, SIGN, AND FANCY PAINTER.
