NEW YORKISMS.

Tht Hons, of l.t.lo.
In tome of tbe New York streets, whose nar
rowness glvrs tbem a reteaiilnce to alleys, one
sometime comm. across a building whlob has
elvlo history of more of less importance, and
la Intimately connected with tbe present dis
charge of clvlo functions. Huoh a balldlog Is
t New York Home of Detention for Wit
Oesbes, located In Mulberry street, a few doors
aontb of Spring. It 1 an Institution whw his
tory Is Involved In tbe criminal history of New
York; wltnesftes, as Its name Implies, being de
tained there during the progress of the various
criminal ohshs.
Itlsuotan inHtllntlon very easy for a stran.
per to get Into or a witness to Kt oat of. It
very aapeot Is as forbidding hs that of a private
lunatic any Inm, m numerous nre the boljsanil
bars. In aiiNwt-r to bis Hummous the applicant
at the front locr-bell is liivwrUbly coufronted
with a deaf niRO, as helng the most appropriate
communication of information to strangers,
who requests you to repeat whatever you say,
and finally refers tbe matter to Sergeant Vol
ger. The Sergeant, who Is a sort of natural
born Bunsby, that has never had an opportu
nity for a nautioal expansion of tbe soul, Is
very affable and communicative, and shows
you all over the bouse, itaruiMUlog the moment,
when you Huiter over tbe thresholds of the
various departments, with reo, lections of the
House as it was, and tlin loin ue as they are.
Nearly ten and a half year ago namely, on
February 0, 1858 a House of Detention was es
tablished In two plain brick residences, Nos. 85
and 88 While street, one of the honse bnin
used lor the male witnesses and the other for
tbe female. This arrangement continued for
about three years, the corner-stone of the pre
sent building in Mulberry strte'. having baeu
laid November 31, 18C0, and the female and tie
male occupants of tbe White street home re
moving thither May 1 and June 5, respest
Ively. During these ten years and a half, wltoesei
of nearly all ages and conditions have baen re
ceived. Daring the Rebellion tbe United State 4
had the privilege of sending its witnesses
thither. Some of these were men and women
of wealth and culture, whom It would have
been barbarous to compel to associate wlttt tbe
other Inmates. For the vast majority of de
tained witnesses are exceedingly rough; the
women and gills. In their way, being not one
whit behindhand with the men and boys la
the accomplishments of uureOnement. Oulll
flave a Rood deal of glamour about It, bat
'Js little witchery la a witness. The pri
soner At tbe bar especially If the prisoner be a
woman awakens In usao much sympathy, or
at least Interest, that our corjectures, all em
ployed on the question of her sentenoe or ac
quittal, bave no lime to picture the worry sne
glvea ber compahslonate Jailor (for there ara
a few such creatures), or the numerous
unpleasant little habits, which tbe solitude of
the cell may have done anything but cure her
of. Not so with witnesses, who in the eyes Or
the populace are often an devoid ot romantic
charm as the real criminal is In ibe eyes of tbe
police. If I am to believe the assurances that
bave been made me, there baa scarcely been a
decent witness dothlned in the New Yors
House of Detention, with the exception of those
sent thither during tbe war by tbe General
Government, and the few ladiesaud gentlemen,
and the children of ladles and gentlemen, who
bave been granted the blc-esing there of private
apartments. At first, one of the largest and
handsomest rooms in the male department
twenty-one feet long, eleven feet high, and
fifteen und-a-half feet wide, was set apart as a
parlor for the men, but tuelr conduct at tbe
Windows, which fronted upon Mulberry streeta
was so outrageous that no decent man, or
woman, or child of intelligent years woald have
liked to pass. Kejdut ultrun of obscenity, which
no mind not morbidly tottering from long
familiarity with tbe suijeci would ever bave
dreamed of were perpetiated lu language and
actions, and the parlor eyntem was, therefore
Boon done away with. The killing-room down
stairs Is a most dismal substitute for It, tbe en
tire furniture conblstlng of three solitary
wooden benches without backs. Tuese benches
are profusely adorned with improvised checker
boards, elaborately hacked with Jack-knives
And giving tbe impression lhal the leisure oi
tbe Inmates Is devoted less to playing tbe game
than to manufacturing the material wherewith
to play it.
As a rule tbe kindness In supplying witnesses,
either male or female, with books, is entirely
thrown away. To tbe old White street estab
lishment a library of over 300 volumes, together
with tbe book-case contalni ug them, was given
by Mr. Benjamin R. Wlmurop, a retired New
York merchant. Three-quarters of the books
were Boon mutilated or lost, the women and
girls especially tearing out leaf after leaf to light
their pipes with or make curl-papers of. I did
not bave tbe advantage of bearing tbe opinion
of Mrs. Reynolds, the matron, but tbe sergeant
in charge assures me that the women are worse
in this respect than even the men. Pdrhapi
this rivalry is only apparent, us It Is more than
likely tbe men never lead at all.
In tbe minute books of the House ire entered
the date on wblcb every witness Is received,
tbe full name as well as that or the defendant,
the crime In evidence of which the witness Is
detained, the name of the police tuslloe making
the commitment, the date of the discharge, an J
the age, nativity, and occupation of the witness.
At the end of every October tbe Sergeant in
charge makes an abstraot of these minutes, and
bands 11 In to Chief Clerk Beth C. Hawley, at
Police Headquarters. The capacity of lue
House is for one hundred and fifty witnesses
Tbe average number is twe ity. Tbe greatest
number at any one time has been one hundred
and twenty eight; the smallest number one. I
a witness, at the summons of the District
Attorney, leaves and does not return, it Is taken
for granted that he la dlschaiged. The various
forms of commitment and discharge are filed
away every month, so that information can at
any time be furnished to the Controller's otfioe.
The form of temporary commitment Is as fol

The Male and the Female Departments are of
nearly equal size, the peculiarity of the locale
giving a Utile tbe advantage to crinoline In tbe
lze of bed-rooms. Those in tbe men's depart
ment are eleven and those in tbe women's
thirteen feet by eight. Tbe bouse couslsU of
four stories and a basement. Each of tbe four
stories In each department contains six small
bed-rooms, for forty-eignt in an, ana eaca oea
room is meant to accommodate two witnesses,
Btsldea these small bed-rooms, each depart
ment contains four larger bea rooms, sixteen
feet by twelve, so that If the bonse should ever
hold one hundred and fifty witnesses at onoe

Would be somewhat crowded. Each department
Is provided with a large bath room, wa me p

economy Is very simple. There are no printed

Hire for b.tfce-ball, and in betting and hatting
endeavor to iorgel the tedium of the witness
box. The great majority of the witnesses pilllatei
destroy, aud misapply everything. Many of
them, when the hour for their lls hargecorn s,
refuse to leave. In the winter and ear y part of
the Fcrlng. this was especially tho c.se. Iny
bad been better boused and fed than In their
own homes, and they Implored to be kept oat
of tbe streets. The regular hours, the warm
beds, tbe sound sleep, the certain meals, tbe
comfortable, doer work life, was heavn to
tiiem. At one portion of last winter, ami g
tie ccoopants were Mrs. Roone and her four
children who gxiued a brief notoriety from an
ulicged attempt on her part to poison
herself and f.tml'y. One midnight the en
tire party were discovered In different stages o'
nlghl-Bown, lu a hmall bed-room in Amity
1'lace, ul tiring groans of various degrees of
magni'ude, and smelling of laudanum. This
Mrs, Boone is tbe mother of the renowned
Boone iblldnn who years ago starred success
fully through the States, and are now grown
up, married, aud settled In England. Two of
thef-e lour younger children, who are left on
ber hands, are extremely smart, and Daniel
and Myrtle recently played a suscessful en
gugenent at the Theatre Comque bere a
plnce, by-the-by. uot precisely adapted for ad -mlnibterlng
moral tonics to people, young or
old.
One little roraan'io tradition wliloti lingers
around this matter of fact II use or Detention,
and I bave done. Some jeurs ago, when the
Louse was very full, a joung witLess was de
talked there, who gave the name of Eugene.
He did not look more than seventeen, was ex
trtmelyneat In person, and palufully modest
in manner. Tbe man agilnst, whom he was a
witness was oharged with murder In the first
degree. The evideuce which Eugene gave was
given with evident reluotunce, and went
to exculpate his master, for be was
stated to be an apprentice to whom he was
ttrently attache 1. When the evening came and
the tour for retiring drew near, the officer la
charge of the house was surprised at Eugene's
appi arlng before him, and, wllh the most art
lets pen-ua-dous. Imploring to be put In a room
by himself. The tears, the attitudes, the
blusl es, the good language wllh whloh this
appial was made, aroustd the officer's suspi
clon and he at once charged Eugene with being
a woman and having concealed ber sex. The
poor creature Audit g she was discovered,
and that the very means sne had rashly em
ploy! d to save the wretched criminal's
II le would prfbably hasten bis doom,
fell upon ber knees and implored secresy.
This, of course, could not be granted. She
was given in charge of the matron, and fnr
ulslu d with clothes proper to her sex. Tbe dis
covery of tbe imposture turned the scale against
tbe criminal, aud destroyed his last chance
for 11 le. But before sentence was executed,
brain fever had done Its work for Eugenia (for
such wns her name), and when It left her, she
was found a hopeless maniac, a fit candidate
lor the shades of BInghamton, where she was
consigned. Atr Baua.

CLOTHING.
A TERsriRATlON SON
Tbe perspiration trickles down.
This sultry summer day,
And In tbe burning noontide sun, '
We pull", and groan, and pant like fun, .
And almost melt away.
The garments on onr suffering back
Are saturated tbrongb;
We feel like making sea-shore tracks; .
We melt away like heated wax;
We don't know what to do.
And more and more we wag oar fans,
And quarts of water drink;
The wicked old thermometer r
Makes ns to bot, too hot to st r.
We'll smash the thing, we think.'
We'll make tbe best of summer woes,
And groan and pant no more;
We'll wear none but tue tbtnnesi clothes.
Good. cbai, and splendid, such as ihose
