The concourse who assembled in the Court of General Sessions yesterday to witness tho trial of the Hon. Way, Varley for robbery, were doomed to disappointment, The distinguished Count was not taken from the Tombs to answer for his crime, for the authorities, as hitherto, were not prepared to Proceed with the case, His name was not even men tioned by the oMetala, ‘The dock wus fliled by other rogues—mere noviecs tn thef—but the thievish desperado who had wielded the bladgeon, picked pockets, and waylaid unurmed citizens by contract, wos absent, He was engaged in recruiting tis ener- ales, which had suffered somewhat from confinement in his cell, by walking the corridors on the tier Murderers’ Row in the City Prison; and white engaged In this healthful exercise he ts sald to have made the remark that his discharge waa a“ flxed thing.” Reddy is under the linpression that the delays in his euse must insure his release, He does not sup pose It possible that a politician ean be convicted at atime when he should be xetively engaged in mak- ing preparation for the fall election, especially when he has received more orders for special work at the polls down town in November than he ean possibly attend to, Hence, he regards his late flying visit to California as exceedingly opportune, ax it enabled him to have his case postponed until a period when his release should seem inevitable, The caso wns not placed on the calendar for trial yesterday, and it in hinted that they don’t mean to try bim this weex. The anticipation of Reddy's discharge does not come of any lick of evidence against him, The tes timony fn his case has been so conclusive and incon: trovertible, that an {mpartial public have convietod him of the offence; and it romains only for the Judge to give effect to the verdict under the forms of a jury trial, Of course the trial of the Comet will not be conducted in tho same fircteal w wan the trial of Kate Gorman, the queen of the Eighth Ward thieves, about two years ago, in the same Court, Kate was the terror of honest people, She was aided tn her depredations, like the Count de Varley, by bullies and ontiaws; and like him, her compulsory visite to the courts ended im her instan taneous release, At length, however, Special Oficer Richard Field, of the Fifth Ward, arrested her on the charge of picking the pocket of a woman at the Broadway Theatro, and she was taken to the Leon- ard street Police Station, There was ample evi dence against her, for she had been caught in the act, and she knew that nothing but bribery could save her from Stite Prison. Aware of thie fact, she offered Capt, Petty a diamond ring worth $600 and #100 in money to Idignantly «purned.t her crime, Jt the offer was indignantly spurned. Bhe was tn- dicted by the Grand Jury, and It was District Attor ney Hall's (ntention to send her to State Prison, bat a week before the trial the papers in the case were minsing. When the hour for the trial arrived, a novel spec tacte was presented. Kate Gorman made hor exit in triumph from one door of the Court of General Seasions while Capt, Petty entered by another, It appears that while the Assistant District Attorney was engaged in addressing a jury, Mr. 8. A. Stuor’ Kate's counsel, and the Assistant District Attorney made their own representations about the case to City Judge Russel, who was thon on the bench, and that the Judge, accepting their versions of the story, took Kate's plea of guilty of attempt to com petty larceny from the person, and dismissed her Under suspension of sentence.
