CONNOLLY CAPTURED, The Ex-Comptroller in the Custody of the Sheriff at the New York Hotel. OE MILLION DOLLARS BAIL WANTED Pruitless Endeavors to Find Satisfactory Sureties. THE AFFIDAVITS IN THE CASE. Gloomy Prospects for the Ex-Chief Cashier of the Ring. ABOTHER MIGHTY MAN FALLEN. Te apite of tis resignation a few days, ago Mr. Wonaolly has since continued his daily visits to the Comptrotier’s office, and has amused himself in an interesting, thoagh perhaps somewhat melancholy, manner by arranging for his final disappearance from the halls which so long owned him master, Many little details were, of course, ‘still 10 be adjusted before he can forever relinquish is grasp upon the machine. Yesterday, however, this steady pursuit of gleemosynary duty was rudely interrapted. He wenced his way down town tn the forenoon, in eublime unconsciousness of the fact that two detectives were cautiously following his carriage, while another couple of the law’s myrmidons waited for him at the en- trance to the Comptroller’s office. But having ‘en him safely to his destination, his “shadows,” who had previously armed themselves with a war- fant of arrest from Judge Larned, hurried to the Sheriff, and demanded the immediate capture of ‘their prey. Mr. Brennan was naturally very greatly Astonished at the suddenness with which this last movein the game had been effected; but having tarefully perased the document that was placed be- Qeath his eyes, was forced to adopt the course sug- Bested. The order of arrest is very brief, and reads as follows:— SUPREME CouRT.—The Pe of the Stas Non York Ricard H. Omonty.—Itapperring io me by atidnvite that's it cause of action exists in favor of the ubove nan ed is and against the above-named defendant for deceit aud fraud, and that the case is one of those mentioned section 179 of the code and on motion of attorney—to wit, the General of the State of New York— it is ordorea that the Sherif of the city and aunty of New York do. andthe said Sherif! ie hereby. or. “ered and required to forthwity arrest the defendant, Richard B.

LARNED, Justice Supreme Court. MAMPLATN, Attorney General, me 22, 1871. The Sherif, accompanied by Mr. Judson Jarvis, Went over to the Comptroller's office a little before twelve, and notified Mr. Connolly of the olject of their little business call. Mr. Connolly was, if any- ting, far more astonished than Mr. Brennan had been, He turned sharply rouna, and his face expressed in its rapid changes, both of color and feature, the ° startling ma. vure of the ‘surprise? party which haa visited him. However, he quickly recovered his self-possession, and at once despatched messengers + for his son-in-law, Mr, Robert C. Hutcnings, and a aumber of other friends. After a little conversation MW was arranged that the party should adjourn to the Surrogate’s oMce while the matter of bai) was betng arranged. At the Surrogate’s oMce for the next five hours Vhere was the most intense exchiement. Of all days inthe week Saturday ta the very worst in hich to get a man’s more weaithy friends together, People who can afford it spend their Sabbaths out. oftown. Long. therefore, as was the lst of possible “hatlors!? which had been drawn out, 1+ dwindled flown sadly when ali but really availapic men were picked out. For instance, it was feportea on pretty good authority that Eugene Kelly would be only too pleased to show his friendsh!p for the ex-Comptroller by risk- ing a million for him, But Mr. Kelly, it was ascer- tained, had gone away to Orange and would not be back before Monday. So with many other respon- wble gentlemen; indeed, the very flower of the ex-Uomptroller’s reputed sureties were, for thie ground aijone, out of the question. And with another gentleman, Mr. Henry Hart, who subsequently went bail for the | fallen chieftain of the Ring, there was a @)Merent but ejually potent objection to signing the dond directly alter the arrest. Mr. Hart 18 an Inraclite and could not conscientiously transact dusiness so important on the Sapbatn of his iaith. He was sent for, however, and promised to go bail, and then loafed about the Surrogate’s Court room all through the afternoon, waiting for sunset to end us religious obligations. It must not be concealed either that some gentlemen upon whom Mr. Con- nolly counted with no little confidence to stand by him in this hour of crucial aiMculty now deserted him. The writer met one of this class—reported to be a well-to-do business man, and certainly one of the most conspicuous among the former recipients of Ring patronage—as he ned from the Surro- gate’s private room. “Are you one of the Comptroller’s bail?’ queried reporter. “Me; why, no, You see my position 1s avery delicate one. If I were free and untrammelied I— 1—would give the whole bail myself, | had it, and sink or swim with him. But, then, what a fool he was to resign. Just sec what a damned pretty nd he has got himself into now. If ne nadn’t ave resignea he would have been all right to the end of the chapter.” you refused to sive bat! 7"? “No, not exactly that; but my posttion—yes, my position is so, so”—all of which very plainly ex- Hyon J gentieman’s tirm determination to let . Comnully Keverely aloue, Quite @ namber of gentiemen, however, visited Mr. Connolly in these hours of adversity and aifilc- ton, Mr. Rufus F. Andrews, for instance, paid him a visit, and so did Mr. James O’Brien, with many others among the smailer political fry. What they were tbere for, however, was a mystery. The press Were Of course carefully excluded trom the room ‘in which they were received, and from such stray glimpses Of the room as might ve cangot when a Messenger rushed hastily through the openes aoor, the gathering was not a Garucularty ively or cheerful one. Every now and then Mr. Autch- ings wouid emerge into the outer court room, with a somewhat. clouded and anxious face, give some fresh directions to his clerk. However, the afternoon wore away, as all aiter- moods do, in a longer or shorter space of apparent ‘ume, and shory ater five Mr. lienry Wart signed the batibond, Mr. Henry Hart, nowever, alone, though ted to be worth ten times the total amount #xed tn the bond, was not enough. The law ex- reasly declares that two sureties, at the very t, shall be provided, and the other one was not rthcoming. Millionnaires, at the best of times, even in New York are rare articies—the black swans of soctety in fact—and the Committee of Seventy seem to have nearly monopoltzed the current sup- ly. Sadly, therefore, and no doubt with hearts Ritea with auxlous foreboding, tie ex-Comptrolier and his son-in-law, accompanied by Mr. Courtney ‘and Mr. Jarvis, the Deputy sheriff, wended their | way up town in search of tne necessary additional | bail. ‘The following is the aMidavit in the case:-— AFFIDAVIT ON WHICH MR.

After Connolly had been taken from the City Hall the great question of the day became as to where the Sheriffs nad conveyed him. Among the un- initiated the impression prevailed that Ludlow Street Jail was the destination of Connolly. Others asserted that he would be taken to his own residence on Park avenue agd left there in charge of Deputy Sheriffs until Monday. Still others cluimed that the domicile of Juason Jarvia would be honored or dishonered by the temporary sojourn within its walls of the distinguished captive. Representatives of the HeRaLp were at once despatched in all directions in search of the ar- rested ex-Comptroiler. At eleven P. M. a reporter putiea the bell of Mr, Conolly’s residence, No, 42 Park avenue. After @ considerable interval had elapsed thé door was partially and cautiously openea by a stalwart porter of rather gloomy aspect, To the questions of the HERALD reporter this individual answered that Mr. Connolly had not been In his house since morning. Mrs. Connolly was at home but had retired. He had no tdea whatever where Mr. Connolly might be found. Leaving this model Know Nothing the reporter repaired to the residence of Mr. Judson Jarvis, on Thirty-filth street, about a stone’s throw from the bonse of Connolly. The door was cpened by a darky of dimiaative proportions but strong intelli- nce, who stated that his master had not deen ome all day. He thought it likely, however, that Mr. Jarvis might be found at the New York Hotel. To this establishment accordingly the reporter pro- ceeded, and, marching up to the desk, subjected the clerk to thé process of interviewing. The informa- on to be extracted from the clerk, however, was not of @ very satisfactory character. r. Jarvis had a room in the hotel, and had been about during the afternoon. Several gentlemen were in his compauy, but he could not say whether or no Comptroller Connolly mizht have been one of them. He had no knowledge of Mr. Connoliy’s being there im the house. There was something in the manner of the clerk that oansed the reporter to sospect that he knew more than he was willing to admit. Accordingly the reporter loanged around, im a brief seeing advancing along = was ed by he corridor Surrogate Hutchings, comptroller Connolly's son-in-law, accompanied by Mr. Samuel J, Courtney. y's comnsel, and the inevit- able’X. Y, 2.4. BoC. Andrews, From Mr, Courtney the information was obtained that Mr. Connolly wasin room No. 131, that his Iriends were exerting themselves strenuously to procure for him the requiste amount of bail, $1,000,000, and were confident that be- fore to-day success would crown their efforts and Mr. Connolly’s liberation be effected. Several gentiemen haa already offered to go bail to a large amount. The reporter inqnired their names, but Mr. Courtney said that for the present he should prefer to decline mentioning them. ‘The reporter thanked Mr. Courtney for his information, when that gentleman rejoined his companions, and tne trio entering a carriage resumed the work of hunt- ing np bondsmen. ‘The HERALD reporter meanwhile repaired to room No. 131 and applied for admittance, ts application Was responded to by an individual whom, at half & glance, the reporter recognized as an attaché of the Sheritl’s office. Entering the room the reporter glanced around in search of Mr. Connolly, but failed to see him, as he was no doubt inan adjoming apartment, from whence could be plainly heard the souna of votces in conversation. The outer room was occupied by some three or four Deputy Sheriffs and a few friends of Connolly, the ben a of them smoking cigars and chatting cosily. The Deputy Shertf! who opened the door denied all knowledge of Mr, Connolly’s whereabouts with @ countenance of brass and a manner that almost evoked from the representative of the press the im- mortal retort of the author of ‘‘What I Know About Farming.” “You lie, villain, you he.” To set anout, however, convincing @ deputy sheriffof the enor- mity of being guilty of violating veracity would have been a fruitiess task, and the reporter, con- eluding that no further information could be ob- tained, bid the myrmidon of the law good night, and retired. Before leaving the hotel the reporter ascertained that Mr. Connolly had made it a particular request that, under no circumstances, shoula any reporter be admitted to bis presence. What Mr. O'Co od a Prominent Demo- erat Think of the Arrest. Shortly afier the arrest of ex-Comptrolier Con. nolly @ HERALD reporter waited upon Mr. Charles | O’Conor in reference to the legal action that had rendered the arrest of Mr. Connolly necessary. Mr. o’Conor had not-much to say. The news of the arrest, he said, did not surprise him. He had pre- pared the aMlidavits and great care had been taken that the contents thereof should not trans- pire beyond his office. The suit against Mr. Connolly was substantially the same as that which is brought against Mr. Tweed, and is conneciea with the frauds and ‘divides’? of which Woodward ‘Was the active agent. lu reply to inquiries as to whether it was intended to make other arrests in connection with the same suit Mr. O'Conor said it would be very undesirable to disclose the designs of those who were putting the Jaw in motion im connection with these frands. ‘The reporter, agreejng with Mr. O'Vonor, ald not Press the question. _1t 1s geperally understood that ‘he members of the Special Board of Audit are the dejendanis in this suit, and that two out of the tnree of this Board have already beeu arrested. ‘The same reporter met a prominent democratic Member of the Committee of Seventy, and mM a conversation as to Mr. Connolly's arrest, this gentleman exoresed himself as of an opinion that whoever might be arrested as parucipant in those frauds, Mr. Tweed was the principal in the fraud, and that the burden of gutit rested on Mr. Tweed’s shoulders. When the suit came to be be shown, and that the two other defendants wou!d ye shown to be comparatively gulitiess, LADIES IN THE HOOSIC TUNNEL.

True, the HERALD had already indicated what would be the entertainmeut offered to onr dis- tinguished guest, but the incredulous mal- titude still asked the question. With a@ caim worthy of Tetrarch the HERALD reporter alighted yesterday morning at nine A. Mf, from the Second avenue cars, at Thirty-third street, ‘and betook himself towards a mass of bunting float ing from the masts of a steamer at the foot of the same street on the East River, That steamer was the Antelope, and its bunting flung abroad to all who cared to read that the two flags commingled were those of Russia and America. ,Early as the hour was the folks in the neigh- borhood had come out on their front stoops to scrutinize those who pursued their pathway tothe Antelope lying at the whart below. It was a fine, ciear morning, with the wind cool and bracing and settled in the northwest, The heavy clouds of the previous night had flown, and the glorious sun hung forth his banner of fire in morn- ing air with an effulgence worthy of early summer, but yet with @ not unpleasant reminder of Jack Frost. Many CARRIAGES WERE ROLLING DOWN that East side strect, and the thing seemed so unusual that much comment was indulged in by Sarah Gamp and Betsy Prig as to what it all meant. The reporter was a pedestrian, and he passed down without any endeavor being made on the part of the residents to confound him with the Grand Duke, whom neither in stature nor physique he resembles. Nearing the river he found that @ vast sea of mud watched over by guardian -‘cops” had to be traversed. ‘The spiles of a new pier formed convenient perches for | the urchins of the district, from whence they passed sneering comments on all foou passengers. “He ain’t the Dook, not by two feet,” said a boy as the reporter passed. The mud ocean was crossed at a few standmg jumps, which, being liberally applauded, landed the reporter safely on the boom, along the edge of the bulkhead. A pasteboard sign wafted before the eyes of the in- credulous “cop” on duty procured admission, and now nothing was wanting save the Grand Duke, Carriages came im quick succession and deposited their fair burdens before the gangway. General McDowell, surrounded by his atdes and dressed in @ heavy milnary overcoat, completely hiding his regular army cont, stood just beside that gangway. | At the (oot of the gangway stood MIS8 NWLLYE MCDOWELL, clad in a very dark clarét-colored suit, and, in her | soft entity, beaming all Over with smiles. As the guests arrived they were presented to Miss Nellie and welcomed by her, and, with few exceptions, introduced to her mother, Mrs. General McDowell. flow the dear girls chattered when they got to- | gether like a flock of sparrows in the eaves, until Mrs, McDowell suggested that they should go upstairs, After this the coast was comparatively clear, ana it was a mattor of surprise av first, but looked | on alone as Christian charity afterwards to hear | Miss Nellie say to the succeeding arrivals: “Tne young girls are upstairs.” Bemg impersonal on this sacred topic the rv porter cau safely say that of the three nondrea | ladies who heard the sentence fully eighteen were over forty years of age; the reporter countea them. At @ quarter-past mine there was a lull, and = then came doubt. This was im turn = dispelled = shortly alter —half-past nine by the news that carriages were to be seen approaching at a rapid rate. The first of these last arrivals drew up and forth stepped tne Grand Duke, vo tne delight of all, He LOOKED AS CHEERFUL a8 USUAL and was clad in the untform of a heutenant of the navy. with a cocked nat, dark blue coat, epanicts bearing the monogram A. l., or Alexander tne Second; aigulettes and sword, the whole covered by a flowing military cloak of imposing cut. After him came Mr. Catacazy, close cropved beard and hair, and jooking as much unlike @ corpse as his reported vecapita- won would ‘mit. An individual foatea at nis heels with a glance, in which deflance and obx julousness were mixed curiously, wearing Dun- reary whiskers and a pug-nose, Jooking all-over importance. This being futtered up and down the ‘angway, and was a Secretary of Legation, Mr. ‘aicrian de Sherkoff, Atso nouteable was the hand. some, young, medal-adorned Count Olsonfiefl, the Duke's triend. There were @ number of Russian oMicers on board ail tn full dress, and al gentie- m With the galiant young Prince in bis blonde- ness and nis six feet one, came Admiral Possiet, i) be iron-gray hair and sirong-faceduess, and TUE CROSS OF ST. NICHOLAS over the other orders which adorned his breast. Belonging to bis sbip, the frigate | Svetiana, were Master Kazarinom, Passed Mit- py dyin Alexander Hiergomisne, Doctors Koudrin and Papof in bis tortoiseshell spectacles, Of the corvette Rogatire were First Lieutenant Jacob Hildebrandt, JaAeutenant Constantin Osteletzky, Passed Midshipman Alexander Giasenapp. Of the clipver Abreck were Second Engineer Lavrinicni Deiter and the handsome Passed stantin Cleopin, As the Prince stepped on board he was received by General McDowell nght manfally at the gang- Way, and by Miss Nelic and Mrs. McDowell on board. The young Duke bowed and shook hands with the General and his lady and danghter with ail the imperia! condescension imaginable. Then | His Highness was conducted up stairs, with many { expressions of regard, and when a reporter, tull in | the bloom*of manly beauty, was taken on’ board, the Antelope cast off ber lines and steamed up the East River, Itis not now necessary to say how much beauty and how much romance hie ‘buried within the shores of Blackwell's Isiaud. or how keenly our Muscovite missionaries felt the en- chanting beanty of the scene. Let ua rather turn to the scene transacting on the cabin deck of the | steamer. That poor Grand Duke swood idshipman Cou- whom ALEXIS ZED SO ADMIRINGLY, yer she was more. First of all she was blonde and Ime-eyed; but in those blue eyes there was a snap — and flash thas would charm the heart of a stone. | Her hair was golden, ana braided with that careless | négtigé which’ betold & wealth of the article, and | the it fell in short flamelets over a brow pure as | Marble, with jus enough of the warm tinge of | Ife in it to show that the warm current / beneath was throbbing with cbaracter larce and na- tive fire, This lady was Mis4 Sullivan, of Ohio, & relative of the General's, ‘There was a perfect Vol ley of generals, among whom were Generals New- ton, Tower, Cutinm, Cuyler, and General McDowell’s Chief of Stai—nbiquitous, agreeable and pleasing General McKeever. ‘There was Lieutenant Gardner, all gold lace, aiguillettes and siniies, and Captain Coster, Aide, also, If General Ingalls, General Jackson (not Andrew), General Barnard and General Karlow be jorgowen, it will be tor the fault of reading.

It was a direct appeal to a bear, Russian, with a sore head or otherwise. The lion-headed Stonghton dried up Alexis with a Blacksione look, and gave way to Miss.

It was enough to know that the Grand Duke was .eavin, the Ante:ope to bring the aristrocratic boat load alter his heels. ‘Ine Duke still wearing his gray cloak and accompanied by General McDowell headed the bine and the guests followed two and two. A few innocent tooking inhabitants of various ages eyed the procession, wondering which was the Duke, and never dreaming that he was the first m the ranks. A couple of companies of the Engineer Corps were spread ont comically, with presented arms, aiong the line of route, like so Inany finger posts, there being at least twelve paces between each halted sapper and miner. ‘They served as admirable guides, however, for if one chanced to stray from the line of march he had only to look for a bluecoat witn a rifle at tne resent. After some devious walking the Grand ake arrived at the Hell Gate obstruction removal works, and here the first surprise of the day was resented. Descending the large shaft, some two undred feet deep, sO faithfully described in the HERALD heretofore, the Grand Duke found nimself facing & number of arched tunnels leading oat like the spikes of a wheel from the wide shaft as a centre. These were labelled “Grant Heading,” * Jederson Heading,” * Hoitman Heading,” Into the semi-gloom of deiferson Heading the party were led, that the pro- cess of ba tering the solid rock might be seen, pre- paratery to charging the blasts. The Duke ex- pressed great interest in the matter, and perse- vered in inquiries, despite the drippiig from the roof which drove back all the ladies and most of the gentiemen who ventured after him, It Will be remembered that in honeycoming, as it were, the rock, semicircles concentric with the | shalt pierce the headings which radiate from the sha(t, These and THE HKADINGS WERE ILLUMINATED witn candies stuck In the rock and the effect was very une, displaying the whole plan of the work- ings at a glauce, Alter the workings had been thoroughly examined the party retired to the top of the shalt.
