STOKES 10 BE FREE. His Time Expires on Satur- day, October 28. A Visit to Auburn Prison and Its Malefactors. The Scientific and Philosophical Opinions of Edward 8, Stokes, AE aT . Avuurm, N. ¥., Oct. 12, 1876. “Warden, when do you say that the time of Eaward 8. Stokes will nave expired?” was the inquiry | made of tall, energetic, quick-eyed man, wearing red side whiskers, atew days since, in the large and severe looking apartments used as a guard room in Auburn State Prison, The question was asked of Warden Durs- ton, who has charge of about 1,300 convicts at this | place, and whose contract is, | think, as big as that of any other warden In the State. SEVERITY TO STOKES. “Ed Stokes,” replied the Warden, “leaves hero at eight o’clock on Saturday morning, October 28. His time expires—that is, the three years which be has servel—on Sunday, the 20th, but we do not discharge couvicts on Suaday, and, therefore, Stokes will leave on the Saturday morning. His sentence was for four Years, but, owing to the commutation, he has had a Year taken off bis time.” Ifound that the rules were much moro strict in | Auburn Prison than they are at the prison at Sing Sing, and the change in the treatment of Stokes at this place has been a decided oue trom the treatment received by him at the other State Prison, A very | to break out, and | whistling ceased t | With feet stamping, | alter the keeper out of the chapel, with hangdog 100k 01 pline bas veen enforced, and the Wardea that he has been compelled to be strict with Stokes owing to the attacks of smail fry local sheets of | & partisan and political character, who have not hes Jated to assert that ho bad been in the practice of | granting favors to Stokes which he had refused to | others, | Auvurn Prison from the outside has a gloomy look— | | as, 1n tnet, most State prisons have—and the only relief to its sombre perspective of granite walls, pork-pio topped turrets and towers, iron gates and lovely sentry boxes on the flagged ramparts, is found in the view that | the spectator has of the comical looking figure of the Cuntinental soldier that sermounts the cupola of tho prisov, and whose absurd cockea hat and musket attract the attention of all strangers who Pay avisit here. In this closing period of centennial migration I have noticed many over-dressed farm peo- ple in town, who may be found standing outside of the walls of this gloomy prison, just asthe provincial coming up to London for the first time may be found gazing at the grimy walls of Newgate, As 1 said be. fore, toe Warden of the prison has placed several re- Strictions on visitors who might wish io seo Stokes, and I ascertained that thero would bo considerable dif™- culty in vemg permitted to see him. No other man 4n any prison in this country to-day has as much pub- lic interest attached to bis past, and as much specula- tion vouchsated in rogard to nis future, Thinking it might be possible to geta glimpse of Stokes if be were in attendance at divine service I paid a visit on Sunday morning last to the prison ata Jew ‘ninaies before oine o'clock, The rule is that all Who desire so to do may attend the morning servicer, Dut the main gate is closed by the guard, who wears citizens clothes, at afew minutes atier nine, and 18 kept closed until after the services, which de not Jast more than half an hour. Passing up the granite | steps aller getting admission at the gate between the two stone towers 1 came into a wide bull, whose walls wero decorated with plans of the prison and grounds, At the further door were congregated the keepers, who rostraiued tho crowd in which | stood /rom pusbing in enthem. There were a few ol these who had relations | or iriends in the prison, as could be seen irom their anxious and parniul looks toward the door, vut the | majority of voth sexes, among whom were some young girls, were simply vulgar curiosity scekers and bothing more. The keepers were waiting to allow the in to chapei rom their cells in the further off gcounds of the prison, “MY GRAY HAIRS ARE SHAMED,"’ Suddenly there Was a uoise us of canging doors and opening bolts, abd tue crowd snoved tot ward aod were mimitied to pass along a dark corridor to the chapol, which I entered 4 moment alter, [twas a vast tail, With Upright posts, aud in it were seated when | took my place 1,200 convicts in their horizontally striped unilorms, most o! their hea !s be ng shaved, with here and there an exception in the way of a band- sumely curicd i vt hair, Some’ of the head: were gray, one, the head of Ur.

The whole | thing Seemed so incongruous aud exeeptional as to pre oundiy impress me; on one side, the choir and ye.in their siriped walfor.es, and up ina bigh , m itttle distance off, sat the warden, by bis side a visitor; while in the centre and facing the thickly mass. ed conriets, stvod the gray haired minister leading the 19 tall and erect but aged form swaying under passionate influences 0: his deep utterances, and to 2 the thirty Kerpers, silent ax deat and house dogs, with their biudgeons fast in the grasp of each man's hand. The preacher was quiie vivid in his sentences, yet, although every cou- Vict followed him with silent attention, ue used, as the Saying is, “no big words,” aud talked to the level of his hearers’ understanding, urging them to bear their burdens, that their yoke might be light, with patience and fortitede. This was substantially whe theme of aw remarks, and the convicts evidently w er list tbe a great reliel to them, this change 4 to respoud, except ior the benediction as they pass back to their ceaseless cell confinement, 1 could not help noticing | bow dissonant the singing of these familiar bymus Wes, knowing that ihe k shad joaded revolvers in their pockets, and yet I be- Neve that the chants were as inelodious choir, the diflerence surroupdings, that | tol poor wretches that they were tue eg theif own crimes and of the jaw of the land, ‘mere Was ove Very clea prany voice, and the effect Was good as the choir burst forth in tue hymn :— Jepus. lover of my soul, om reality as those of any avera, being only in the stern, repre: 1, | | Le: me to Thy bosom fly, | White the nearer waters r | While the ten | Nide mo, Tit | Sate in | 0, receive my soul at Inst, IT suppose this choir is na unequalled one in this or gny other country, from its composition, and having some curicsity to kuow the nature of Lhe ofeuces com- ited by its members, and which were the cause of , | made it my business to ascertain the | they were THE CONVICT CHOIR, Mirski, organist...

Dr. Leroy, | heard a jouu, long and continuogs whistling proceeding from tbe body ui convicts. The whistie was Very shrill, and wax repeated five times. There was in- stant alartn, and every keeper clasped bis bludgeon and placed bis hand on his shooting iron while the minister ceased his remarks. A young Presbyterian seminary student, of the Auburn Theological Seminary, wuo sat by my side and who teaches a Sunday sc,rool class of S00 conviets every Sunday, imagined that a revolt was about keto me atthe moment As the convicts gave a round of applause showing how deeply they were affeeted by the services; but the applause was jor the nowy whistler, whom asiurdy keeper took from nis | seat in the centre of the chapel, aiter shaking bis head | almost off h arch| named William Barr, getting up silently and hix lace, as it he kuew that he was shamming. Ho had been diseharged irom the Lunatic Asylum, which is the prison tnclosuro, day previous by Dr. M Donald as a perfectly map, but Barr insists that he 1s insane and gives Warden Durston a good teal of trouble, whieh may be possibly obviated somewhat by a short continement iu a dark cell. Though I scanned every tgure in the chapel J did | not see Stokes among tho mass of poor wretches, aud irom a prison oficial (still proserving my incognita) | | learned that Stokes haa beeu in the hospital tor some time as an invalid, and that uo person was to be al- Jowed to see him, «8 any oilicial who broke through this rule would get himself into trouble of a serious na- it) Lew however, tk did ave a tow nents’ conversation on’ Sunday with stoke ag achieved, but an cfcal’ of the prisou, whose name I cannot give, was present and rather hurried tho interview. 1 was taken tirough a long series of coriidors, passages, doorways, er and descents, and finally I entered the hospi- a A CHANGRD MAN, I was passing througu rapidly when I_ heard my lied, and, turning around, saw Edward soi disant Broadway elegant, who five yeara ‘4 $2,000 a yeurto his tailor to keep him att: elatest fashions of the day. But, ob, how ¢ man was! I saw a middle aged man—Stokes 1a now thirty-eight y ot age—bect in # ehair over a sleam bh the hospital beds all round him, the sheets bieached to a ghostly white- hess, his face unshaved, his bair prematurely gray, Ns figure — stooved—the whole = man broken with sickness and irritability at what he be- lieves firmiy to be a long term of persecution and con- spracy, 1 walked over to where he stood and shook hands with Stokes, and he smiled plensantly, bat I noticed his face was very white and full of lines of care and safleri: His sickness is asthma, and he bore every trace and indication of a victim to pulmonary disease whose days were nurubered. Since th day when Fisk fell atthe toot of the Grand staircase, the worst enemy of Stokes might be satie- flod with the misfortunes that have betalien him, His brother Clmton is dead of consumption, old Mr. stokes died a year ago, worried to deain by grief tor nis son's disgrace, and he has had various domestic afllictions which meed not be enumerated. un the Sing Sing prison register three years ago Stoke: answered to tho question, ‘Aro you married or single’? the one briet word ‘Single.’’ None but a = fow friends—near and = inti- mate frends—can {fathom 6 mingled romance and despair that lies concealed by that one word de- scriptive of Bis ervil status, Stokes had a bianket shaw! around bis shoulders, although he sat by the heaver and was reading a book. ‘The man 18 entirely | changed in nearly everything, Five years ngo, ai- though a well informed man, he haraly ever took up & buok to read, tor the guy life of a man about town did chased a were Bapti tume principally books treating of the subjects of phi- logophy, history and science. “How do you feel, Ed?” I asked of the man who stood three trials for murder, and whose oxpeoses— lawyers’ fees and other items, including his final verdict—have amounted in five years te ever $300,000, “Well, Mr. I don't feel well at all 1 was pretty nigh gone.

Will Tilden TY tho State of New York ?" questioned the captive. ‘Some people have heard rumors to that effect, but no one can be ceriain of politics,” | answered, “Well, if he carries the State of New York isn’t he Hable to carry the whole country and be elected to the Presidency !’) ho answered, iuquiringly. A frown gath- ered on his face as he spoke of the possibility of Til- den’s election, for Stokes has been very bitter against Tilden sinee bis father'sdeath, ¢ has pri’ views about the cause of the ol gentioman’s doash. Stokes did not speak further ot politica, “I sce you are tond of reading, Ed. What book Is you bave with you?” I queried. ‘This is a splendid book—I1 think the finest 1 have ever read, The man who wrote it Knows of what he writes most thoroughiy. I was just now reading a fine passage ip it.” L took up the book and found it to be Draper's “Conflict Between Religion and Science." Stokes had been roading tho eighth chapter of this well known work, entitled “Conflict Respecting the Criterion of i bad just finished the passage preceding treats ot the Index Expurgatorius. The passage which Stokes thought to be so fine, and which y possibly expiain the prosent bent of his mind, is jollows :— “The inti:ction of the death punishment for differ- ence of opinion was stil! resorted to. When Calvin caused Serveius to be burned at Geneva it was ebvious to every one that the spirit of persecution was unim- paired. The offence of that philosopher lay in his belief, ‘This was that the genuine docirines of Christianity had been lost even before the time of the Councit of Nice t the Holy Ghost animatos the whole system of n: ture, like a soul of the world, and that with the Christ it will be absorbed ‘at the end of ail things, iuto the substance of the Dei from whieh they bave emanated, Forthis he was roasted to death over a slow fico, Was there any distinction between this Protestant auto da Je and the Catholic one of Vanini, who was burned at Toulouse by the In- quisition, in 1629, for his ‘Dialogue Concerning Na- ture?” ’ “Now, that {s what I calla floe passage and written by remarkable thinker,”’ added Siokes, in a faint tone.

But itis more than probable, that uwing lo the present state of his lungs, that Stokes may have to take a trip to Havana this winter if he wishes to proiong his live, for his constitution 18 completely brokeu and needs patehing up.

Martin, of Ypsilanti, Mich, aro matched to wrestle, collar an¢ elbow, at the Central Park Garden Monday evening next. The event is for $500 aside, and, such is the previous wrestling history of the principals, much interest is centred in the result. McLaughlin and Martin have already twice met in the West to de- cide the quest of riority in this branch of ath- leties, but such was the partisan spirit displayed upon those occasions bosh matches were declared to be drawn batties.

O'LEARY'S CHALLENGE TO ENGLISH PEDES- TRIANS. The Chicago pedestrian, Daniel O'Leary, has not yet signed articles for a contest with our countrymen, and the negotiations so far do not promise us anything | very exciting. The original challenges of Vaughan, Crossland and Howes have not been accepted, but dur- ing tho last week all kinds of propositions have been suggested to the American by the backers of the Eng- lishmen. A great difficulty in tho way is the impos- sibility of arranging for the match to tako place at the Agricultural Hall, which the authorities bave refused to jet for such a purpose again, and there is no other building at liberty in the metropolis large enough ior a suitable track and the accommodation of any great Rumber of spectators. The large concert hall at the Alexandra Palace is the most exten: that we know of, but this it is very improbable the directors would permit to be used for an exhibition of the kind. U'Loary, however, assures us that be is anxious to give us a sample of his powers, and, rather thaa revurn to America without @ match, would not objoct to walk at Lillie Bridge Ground, which the A, A, C has offered to make as completo as possible for & genuine contest, even going so far as to erect @ can- | vas covering over the whole of the quarter-mile track, besides lighting it up at night with impamerabie lamps. In respect to the probability of a contest, the last re- 1 that an offer nas been by 's vackers to matcu him to walk U’Leary bis own djstance—viz, 300 miles—for £100 aside, im four weeks from signing articles, at tho same time also mak- 16g an additional match for Howes to walk the Ameri- cun three weeks later # similar distance for another £100, This, however, would be a very unsatlstactory ment, tor if OLeary’s sole aindition is to walk Jong distance championship oi the world, wh: uid not the lists be open to allcomers? ‘The coi test would not be spoiled trem the fact ot there. boing more than one competitor, aud even among English- men at present it remains ao open question as to who really 18 the ‘long distunce cuampion.’’ All that is wished tor isa thoroughly genuine contest, well and sat factortly carried out. We hear that it isnot uo- likely, should O'Leary be unable to come to terms with Crossland or Howes, thatsome of the members of the A. A. C. would give £100 for 100 mil 200 miles, and £200 fora 5600 miles tournament, the competitors, in addition, to mako a £25 or £50 sweep- rs [. is very liberal offer, and would bea ctory arrangement for all concerned,— Sporting Life, Sep 80. t WESTON IN LIVERPOOL. At five minutes past twolve A. M. on Monday last, at the Park Rink, Admiral street, Liverpool, Weston commenced what is announced as his final eflort in England—namely, to walk over 450 miles in six days— and, notwithstanding the untimely hour, there wasa large attendance to witness him commence his arduoug task.
