As a matter of ‘wouree the intelligence created a great sensation, as At naturally would, from the positive and emphatic Manner in which it was placed before the public. ‘On Friday evening last a person, whose name was Wet given, left the following letter at the HERAYD fice: — A man inthe Tombs City Prison, who gives name 01 James Hughes, bese you to send a reporter to his cell, as be ‘wanis 0 give some iaformauion t@ your paper.

After consulting a slate, which was hung at arm’s length away trom a balustrade, over -@ square well fifty feet deep, between the sides of ‘he division in the prison, it was ascertalued that ‘the object of our search was in cell No. 64, away in the southwest corner of the galery. Peeping ‘hrongh the hurdle shaped door it soon became @pparent that a human being was INSIDE THAT DREADED BARRIER, and, after a few loud exhortauons, this being came forward, and putting bis face against the inside of ‘the bars, 80 nai the nose protruded on the outside, he inquired “what was up.” After he was assured Bhat the reporter was “up” with reference to a com- Maunication, he said, “Yes, I want to say a goed @eal.

BEFORE JUDGE DOWLING. Notwithstanding that within the past two weeks nearly 180 criminal cases of various kinds have have been disposed of im this court the calendar seemed yesterday as heavy as ever, containiug no leas than thirty-two cases. The court room was filled also with parties who, as a whole, formed one of the most grotesque and motley crowds that could be gathered cither from the wayside or the highways and hedges. As is usually the case on Saturdays, a large number of those on the benches were “loafers” from off the streets, who came in as a mat- ter of curiosity to witness the proceedings, which are always of a lively and instructive chur- acter, and m some instances the “pais” of prisoners were present straining their eyes and ears to see and hear all that went forward, and to gather whatever they can as to the disposition of the cases in which they may happen to be spectaily interesied, The court opened at ten o'clock, After the Judge had taken bis seat upon the bench and a few cases of minor importance were @ixposed of, and several wives and husbands wilo had been treat. ing each other to more an id broken noses than dollar bills were reconciled, the case of John Malone and John Kelly was cailed.

A PAY AT JEFFERSON MARKET POLICE Scenes and Incidents on the Dark Side of Life. For jthe few days succeeding the New Year criminal cases of interest to the public are few, the reason possibly being a general debauch among the thieves, rogues, confidence men, &c., that infest the city, and the natural state of ‘seedi- ness” induced by their dissipation renders them for the time indisposed to pursue their avocation of beasts of prey. ‘The few cases that do come before the imperturba- ble Justice Cox at such a time are of a character like the iollowing:—For instance, to begin with the “STREET PROWLERS.” Henry Lewis, giving as his residence the ‘‘Revere Bouse,” and Peter MeGovery, alias Brown, both no- torlous pickpockets, were arrested at the New Haven depot by officer Marrin and, charged with “suspicious conduct,’ were held ever for exami- nation. .
