Of course when order of arrest should arrive from Albany it atonce be placed in the Sherif’s hands for execution and by him be served on Mr, Tweed, who would be obliged to provide two sureties in twice dhe amount sued for. Crowds hung around THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE early all day, expecting, it would seem, that the eri Would go Over, forcibly arrest Mr. Tweed \d convey him to jhe Court House or Ludlow Street jail, holding him, & ta “cop,” by the coat collar. expectant ones, on that “lay,’’ were, of course, ly disappointed, but they traversed the halls and tibule and rotunda in the Court Honse witn most commendable patience. Inside the office there were mut few signs of business or briskness in anything, Bre Marshal Burns, of the Fifth ward, sat in the railing enclosing his desk, chatted ith a friend and gazed from Hasson to Cummins pack to Gibney. They amused themeclves shatting or reading or making mental calculations ws to what they might be catching on trumps if ualness Was good, 1t was not good, “As,” tO use he words of one, “there is nothing else in the pourts but these damned frauds.

THE ORDER OF ARREST pftce is situated ina corner of the deputies’ room and quite close to the door of Sherif Brennan’s private room, Mr, Judson Jarvis, who lias charge Df the orders of arrest, on being asked on the ques: tion, did not know anything about it, He had re. oeived no order and really did got expect any. U) Yo time for closing the oficé tone had affived, ‘AVhen it does come, however, it will bo served and the entire affair straightened, as far as the Sheriff 4s concerned, in very few minutes, without any fuse or sensation whatever, and the scandal mongers nd expectant gonsationalists Wl be, of course, Uisappointed. Some curiosity was expressed as to who MR. TWEED’S BONDSMEN vould be, as it was known they would be obliged to give perhaps $2,000,000, In this connection it was Tumored that Tweed had made an assignment to his gon Richard yesterday afternoon of some four and a ‘half millions, and that he could on that become surety. Nobody around the public offices seemed to Know anything definite about the sphyeot, but it was genorally conceded that ‘Tne Boss” would have “AEAVY WBATHER” 20 be elected straight, and stilt heavier to carry with ‘him his candidates for several distzicts In is Sena Vorial district, All these ohandés Were discussed among a crowd of some 450 small pipelayers and repair men. They ad not been paid since August, and they had called on Deputy Comptyolier Green several times, but there Was no money for them, and so Mr. Tweed yesterday advanced some $23,359 to pay these men Yor september, and to pay the “lamp and gas” men Yo-aay, The pipélayers formed in line at the Cham- Soweto door early in the morning, and as they slong toward Mr. Whalon’s desk ana that seave Rimbie Apmure 190% 1M Wels checks and dasaed ‘and ena of the line jibed about “the Boss’s arrest.” NEW YORK HERALD, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1871.—TRIPLE SHEET. off the amount called for the men near the middie “Baay, Mixey,” said one, “who'll put up the mooney for us nixt time, af Tweed’s locked up ?!?

AY THE COMPTROLLER’S OFFIOR the ordinary quietude was disturbed by the entry of &@ number of Inspectors, “water police,” contractors and others who wanted money, On behalf of the contractors Mr. Thomas Pierson asked when the Comptroller would be ready to pay them, He was entitled to $14,000, and a warrant for $29,000 had ‘been aignea and in the department for several months past, Mr. Green never lost his placidity, He assured the gentlemen that the contracts were being exam- ined into and the ordinances calling for the work looked up, that he would call a meeting of the Board for the revision and correction of asseasments and have the matter attended to promptiy as poasible, * To the inspectors and others who called he was “SEEING ABOUT THB MATTERY and wonld answer ag soon as possible, In the Supervisors’ yooms there was more tha the usual appearance Of nothing going on, The Clerk's office was in possession of a King, who walked up and down beneath the tinted frescoes, examined the massive thermometer and showed himpelf to be like Lear—“Every inch a King,’? THE JOINT HIGH COMMITTER ‘were to have had a meeting and show up what they had unearthed, Supervisor Dimond, Chairman of the Joint High, was absent, however, on account of severe indisposition; go the meeting was called for this afternoon at two o'clock.

Notwith- standing this statement there were many who seemed to think he would be arrested at a late hour last night and locked up. Of this, however, there ‘Was no fear, as the Sheriff's oMficer, Mr. Jarvis, stated that if the order did come after office hours yester- @ay he would not open it unt) this morning. This, of course, was not generally known, and there was consequently @ great deal of amusing anxiety throughout the city antil alate hour last night, or rather an early hour this morning, AT TWEED’S OFFICES, The rnmored contemplated proceedings against Mr. Tweed created a greater stir about the Depart- ment of Publio Works than it did in any of the Other offices. During the day frequent visite were made w Mr, Tweed’s office by politicians and strikers, but the great Tammeny chieftain was non-committal in his expressions upon the situation, except to his most intimate friends, with whom he canvassed the subject freely, apa unreservedly declared his readiness % meet all charges, Among those who were closeted with him for intervals of long or short duration was Hon. Tom Fields, who entered with a ‘Woehogone face, and came out smiling lke @ sun- flower after a shower. 3 Early In-the morning, before Mr. Tweed’s office mad become besieged by the throng, a reporter of thie paper,.with a View of ascertaining some defl- Rite mformation a8 Ww thy prvecouys misticucU against MC"FWweed, visited the Department of Pub- Mc Works. At that hour were were no persons about the building other than the empioyés and meassenger& Oneof the latter assured the reporter that Mr. Tweed had not yet arrived. As he turacd away General Tweed was encountered and a card placed in bis hand, with the remark that a brief in- terview with his father was sought. Afew minutes later Mr. Tweed arrived and the reporter was shown into lis presence, The ‘Boss’ received him with lis usual urbanity, and a brief in- terview followed, the substance of which is given below:— RerorteR—How are you, Mr. Tweed? I nave called to inquire about those legal proceedings insti- tuted against you. Mr, TwEED—I see by (he papers that some action has been taken, but I know nothing more, RevonTkR—Then, you have been served with no process? Mr. TweED—No sit, not yet; but I suppose some- ting is to be done, Revorter—May I ask, Mr. Tweed, what form the proceedings are likely to take? It is stated that the complaint wilt be lodged before a Judge in Albany, Mt, TweRD—Then the usual course will be an order of arrest, made by the Jadge there, who will fix the amount of bail. The order will be forwardea to the Sheriff of this county by the Sheriff of Albany county, apa our Sherif’ here will accept the bail called for by the order. Such, I presume, will be vhe coprse. At least that is the practice. ReEPoRTER—Mr. Tweed, it is said that Woodward has decamped, Do you know anything of his move- ments? . Mr. TWEED=No, sir, I 8€@ it fs so stated, but I know nothing of it, I do not wish to taik of these complications, I have said so much, I am, m fact tired of talking and my counsel advises me to awatd the course of events. Rerorter—Tne situation this morming looks gloomy, Mr. Tweed. Mr, TWEED—Yes, the exbibit aoes look bad, very bad—(a pause, the great Tammany cbieftain looking the interviewer squarely in the eyes)—but, sir, I have not received a cent of that county money, The charges are produced for political effect ana I walt the issue confident that J can show a clear record, Itis strange that @ man cannot have bor- rowed money returned to hi without being placed im this position. Rerorter—Perhaps, Mr, Tweed, 1 bad better see your counsel? Mr, TwEED—That is useless, They know less of what is tobedone thanldo, The day may bring forth something, and if you will call later I will cheerfully give you apy thing I may have agcertamed in thé weantinie. This terminated the intérview and the reporier withdrew, Mr. Tweed’s appearance showed that the notoriety he has achieved is having its efect upon him, and, while courteous as formerly in his address, the careful observer could not fail to see that ~ any, feels the obloquy that nas been heaped upon him, In the afternoon a second visit was paid to Mr. Tweed, who was seated alone in his office, On thi occasion . Mr. Tweed was in one of ls bappies moods, and the cloud thatin the morning rested upon his visage had entirely disappeared and left no tell-tale trace behind. Reporter—Well, Mr, Tweed, have you heard auy- Vhing further? but Tam ready. Mr. Twesp—Nothing, Tiere the reporter called his attention to an edis torial in an evening paper, in which is was said thas Mr. Tweed had advanced money to friends on con- dition that 1t was to be refundea when they drew their pay from the city, aud that this accounts for certain sums placed to his credit in the Broadway Bank. Mr. TWERD—That may be 80, but I had nothing to do with this publication. REPORTER—Can I state that such fs the case ? Mr. TWEED—Not by my authority. 1 leave the matter In the hands of my counsel, and wish to make no statement for publication, REPORTER—Well, sit, 1 have been over to the Sheriff's office, and no order for your arrest has been received.
