CONNOLLY AT LARGE. We is Released by Judge Barnard on $15,000 Bail. The District Attorney Protests Against the Action of the Court. Scenes at the Jail, in the Supreme Court Chambers and the Sheriff's Office— How Slippery Dick Breakfasted and Received His Visitors— New Year’s Sharp Practice. Affecting Scene Between Brennan and Connolly. Richard B. Connolly, ex-Senator of the State of New York, ex-Couaty Clerk of New York, and ex- Comptroller of the city of New York, sat yesterday Morning im the pleasantly turnished parlor of Wardan Tracy in Ludiow Street County Jail. Alarge grate fire was glowing cheerfully in the Toom, and the radiant pictures in the fire attracted the prisoner’s attention a3 he sat smoking his fine Meerschaum and musing over the events of his Past and, it must be sald, very eventfui life, COMFORTABLA QUARTERS, ‘The oi! portrait of Warden Tracy, taken eleven | ears ago, hung over @ biack walnut desk, and Con- ‘olly’s eyes occasionally turned to the painting of some young lads wno were depicted swinging on gn old farm gate, or then wa..dered to a number of photographs of Palmer's Marbles that served to adorn the walls of the handsome apartment. Mr. Connolly had just made his toilet and was taking Nis morning siesta be:ore the breakfast hour, It was the first and only New Year’s Day that the ex- Comptroller had ever spent in a prison, and the Teveries of @ man in such circumstances were not Very cheerful, itis to be presumed. (m Lwo apartments have been occupied by Connolly— ‘one which he used as bedroom and the other as a parior for the last five weeks, The fifth week of his confinement would have expired on next Wednes- day ht, whi A LOVING WIFE, During that time the ox-Comptroiier's loving wife has been absent from nis side but one day, and that day's absence on her part was the result of a severe Mt of sickness, A boy brought im the different morning papers and laid them, in a respectful man- ner, where Connolly couid place iis hand upon them. Ho turned around and carefully selected the Morning’s HERALD from the heap. g READING THE WERALD. He oponed its fresn, crisp pages and began to Tead ali the facts in his case in a very deliberate manner, stopping at times to think on his very un- fortunate position, while the glad snouts aud horn Rootings of the noisy boys glorifying the incoming ofthe New Year's Day smote harstly on the ears of Rim ouce so powerful and now a prisoner ander ‘Dan of public opinion. The door opened suddenly, Mr. Connolly held up the HERALD os a@ slileld, and the zood-looktag Warden appeared in the room. “I wish you @ happy New Year, Mr, Covnolly,” paid (he Warden, pleusantly. “1 wish you the same, ang Many happy returns to yourself and family, Johu,” returned Mr. Connoliy in reply to Johu Tracy.

One wouid expect to | see—and would therefore imagine—the ci-devant prisoner beaming with the bappiness of a mighty relier from present anxiety in the midst of the luxuries which fill his home and the centre of overflowing demonsirations of aflec- tion and congratulation from those nearest to him by blood and friendship, and more tntensely so than if there had never been a Ludlow Strect Jail with its dreary associations, MYSTERIOUS SRCLUSION. Buc there was last evening a mystery regarding the reality of these surmises, and they lacked con- firmation, Inguirles made at the residence of Mr. Convolly met with only equivocal, vague and confused answers, which clashed together with such an absurd dissonance in meaning as fatally to impair their plausibility. But they could be tnter- reted = most easily — thus:—Mr. Connolly ad not. returned = chez lui that day. Althougit the housenold bad heara of his release, and although his whereabouts were satd to be un- known to the family, Mrs, Connolly had gone to him, wherover he might be, and, ‘to cap the ely max” of transparent ovasion, it was said that Mr, Connolly was engaged in making New Year's calls ai the houses of bis friends.
