The IIMorr of n 'otiirrmi.man.
A few earB ago John Alorriaaey was a a1.
ent of Troy. He kept a small drinking
aloon of the lowest oharaoter. It was the
Wrt of th low prlze-flghteri, thieves, and
dUBolnt persona of all drens. 80 low and
rdiBBoIntt and disreputable was the plane,
that it was cloned by the authorities. Wltli
filler traits, Morrissey blendud thai of a prize
fighter of the lowest oast. DraokeD, brutal,
.'without friends or money, btt.rei iu hi
Jclothes and in his person, he drifted down to
iNew York to Bee what would turn up. He
looatea bimself In the lowest stews of New
York. At that time the eleotious In the
city were carried by brute foroe. Thore
was no regiotry law, and the lojunotlon of
politicians to "rote early and vote often"
I was literally obeyed. Ronghs, Short Hoys,
brutal representatives of the Bloody Sixth,
took possession of the polls. Respeotable
; men, who were known to be opposed to the
J corruption and brntality whiuh marked the
elections, were assaulted, beaten, robbed, and
Wten bad their coats torn from their boks.
The police were powerless, often they were
uiies 01 tne Duiue, ana citizens bad quite as
much to fear from them as from the rowdies.
If the election was likely to go against them,
and their friends presided over the ballot-box,
and should signal the danger, a rush would
be made by twenty or thirty desperate fellows,
the boxes be seized and smashed, tables and
beads broken, the voters dispersed, and the
election carried by default.
A local eleotion was to take place In the
upper part of the city. The friends of good
order were in the majority, if allowed to vote.
But it was known that the rowdies would
come in force and control the eleotion. A few
voters got together to see what could be done,
and among them the present General Superin
tendent of Police. It was suggested that forse
be met with force, that the ballot-box be
guarded, and the assailants beaten off by
their own weapons. But where could the
materials be found to grapple with the Plug
Uglies and their associates f Somebody said
that Morriseey was iu town ready for a job,
and that be could organize a force and guard
tne election.
One day Mrs. Kennedy came to her husband
as he sat in bis room, and said to him.
"There is an awful-looking man at the door,
who wants to see you. He is dirty and ragged,
has a ferocious look, and is the most terrible
fellow I ever saw. Don't go to the door; he
certainly means mischief." "Is he a big,
burly-looking fellow f" "Yes." "Broad
shouldered, tall, with his nose turned one
sidef" "Yes, yes," said the Impatient lady.
"Oh, I know who it is; it is John Morrissey;
let him come in." 0 husband, the idea
of your associating with suoh men, aud
bringing them to the house, too 1" But
the un welcome 'visitor walked into the
parlor. Now, John Morrissey at Sara
toga, in his white flannel suit, huge
diamond rings, and pin oontatning bril
liants of the first water, and of immense
size; tall of stature, a powerful-looking
fellow, walking quietly about tbe
Streets,; or lounging at the hotel, but
seldom speaking, is not a bad-looking man.
Seen in New York in his clerioal blaok suit, a
little too flashy to be a minister, yet among
bankers, merchants, or at tbe stock board he
would pass very well as one of the solid men
of the city. But Morrissey as he appeared
that morning was an entirely different per
sonage. He had come from a long debauoh,
and that of the lowest kind. He was bruised
and banged up. His clothes were tattered.
Tbe Island was all tnat seemed to be opened
to him. With him a bargain was made to
organize a lorce of fighters and bullies, suf
ficient to prevent the ballot-boxes from being
smashed, and the voters from being driven
from the polls. He said he could do it, forj
he was at home among desperadoes. True
to his appointment, he was at the polls
before tbey were open. He was attended
by about thirty as desperate looking fellows
as ever rode in a wagon or swung from Ty
burn. He stationed his foroes, gave his orders,
told eaoh not to strike promiscuously, but,
on the first appearanoe of disturbance, eaoh
to seize his man, and not leave him till his
bead was broken. There was no disturbanoe
till twelve o'clock. The late Captain Carpen
ter was in charge. About noon a huge
lumber-van drove up, drawn by four horses.
It was loaded with the roughest of the rough,
who shouted and yelled as the vehlole neared
the curbstone. Bill Poole, at that time so noto
rious, led the company. 1 bey were ohoioe speci
mens of the men who then made the rulers of
New York. Plug Uglies, Bummers, Roughs
of the Bloody Sixth, Short Boys, Fourth
'Warders, and men of that class, were fully
represented. Bill Poole sprange to the side
'walk. Captain Carpenter stood in the door.
Addressing him, Poole said, "Cap, may I jo
in T "Ob, yes; waiJc in ana welcome," Car
penter said, and in Poole went. He saw the
situation at a glance. He measured Morris
sey and his gang, turned on his heel, and
passing out, said, "Good morning, Cap; I
won't aive you a call to day; drive 00, boys;"
and on they went to some polling plaoe where
tbey could play their desperate game without
havine their beads broken.
This was Morrissey's first upward step. He
1 washed bis face; with a part of the money
taid him he bought a suit of clothes, and with
the balance opeued a small plaoe for play. He
became thoroughly temperate. He resolved
to secure first-class custom. To do this he
knew he must dress well, behave well, be
aober. and not gamble. Those resolutions
he carried out. His bouse in New York is the
most elegantly furnished of any of the kind In
the 8tat. It has always been oonduoted on
principles of the highest honor, as gamblers
understand that term. His table, attendants,
cooking, and company are exceeded by nothing
t ku t of the Atlantic
He followed his patrons to Saratoga, and
opened thtre what was called a club-house.
Jndgec, senators, nmruuauvo, uun,
Unnniren. became his guests. The disguise
was soon thrown off, and tbe olub-house
.nmi UiH form of a first-class gambling-
l i,nnu at the Borises. Horse raolng and
C attendant games followed, all bringing oustom
' and profit to Morrissey's establishment.
1 About this time the celebrated conspiracy was
r h nnlitlntana and railroad men to
Walr Anmu Harlem Rallroid, and with it
rvimmnrfnre Vanderbilt. As a player Mor
Uut anon became familiar with Vanderbilt,
bia summers at the Springs. In

rators, and throw them on their baok, Mo

part He made his appearanoe at the Stock

share in the profits of that bold stroke which
mined thousands who had sold Harlam short,
u ia. u now worth half a million. He Is

Hombure la Winter. 1
The following is from a Uomburg letter
publibbed in the Pall Mall Gazette:
For a study of civilized human nature nnler
oironmstanoes oalonlated to exhibit most of it
weaknesses in the most interesting mauner,one
can hardly go to a more suitable place than
Ilomburg-cs-Monls in winter. There, all this
season, the with-luggage-provided and solvent
looking visitor will be cordially reoeWed at any
ef the numerous hotels, and may oooupyth-ir
very best apartments at aqnarter of the price hi
would have to pay in the summer and aatautD.
Tbe "administration" of tbe great gambling
palaoe which commands the whole town wil ,
on application to the "Polizel Bureau" furnish
him with a blue card, inscribed with bis
name, giviDg bim free aooess throughout the
winter to tbe "Salons de Etranger;" in other
words, to the rooms in which tbe games of
tiente-et-qoarente and roulette are carried on
rom 11 o'clock in tbe morning until 11 at
night. In only one of these rooms gor
geously over -decorated in carton-pierre,elitbo-rately
gilt and painted, relieved with tall
mirror", and enriched with Italian frescoes
on the ceiliogs is gambling carried on
dnring the-winter. This is called the Silon
Japonais; at one end of it is the trente et
qnarante table, and at the other the roulette.
Morning, neon, and night these fasofnating
' boards of green cloth" are surrounded, three
deep, by a crowd of people widely different
fr m the Bummer guests whose counterpart
can be found, I think, in no other plaoe in
Europe. There are no brilliant toilettes, no
pretty women, ma -.veto are at Monaos at this
season. These people have all come here to
gamble, or to prey upon the gamblers; and
there is an expression of solemn calculation
on all their faoes, young and old, masoullne
and feminine (especially the latter), which is
at first curious, and then painful to observe.
Tbere is, of course, tbe inevitable British ele
ment, represented about as creditably aa it
usually is in those continental nooks -and
corners wnere adventurers moBtdooongregate.
The Irish widow lady of unoertain age and
very much more unoertain antecedents; the
neat lirtle Englishman with the fair beard and
(they say, but I know nothing about that)
unfair "syBtems;" the highly oosmetioised
old lady and her haggard daughter,
who play nearly from the opening till the
closing of tbe rooms; the slatternly, dowdy
Englishwomen, who infallibly turn np
everywhere abroad, looking as if they had
just come from some long journey in their
tumbled travelling clothes, and were going
off again directly in the same attire, but who
appear regularly in the same mixe-en-scdne
every day tor six months; the British mer
chant, who finds it convenient to be out of
Britain; the shabby-genteel residents, who
have an English parson to take care of their
souls, and who sometimes "punt" mildly in
florins these make up the " Colonie Anglaise,"
aud are all flourishing in this year of grace
1869. Polish counts with uncommonly dirty
hands and very eager eyes; terrible old French
women savagely keen at their play; grimy,
common looking, greasy Germans, who quar
rel furiously over a disputed florin piece, and
appropriate the winnings of unobservant play
era with astonishing persistency; spectacled
"pro'essors" of playing by systems, who take
down the reoord of the game by the hour, and
who will be delighted to play for you on their
own infallible plans tbere they all are at h om
burg an der Hohe, and in the winter season
tbey have it all to themselves. Walking np
and down the room, as if surveying their prey,
are tbe cheft de partie and inspecteur des jeux;
and sometimes yon see the Homburg
banker, a true son of Israel, who apes the
English style of dresp, but looks like a very
German Jew indeed, conferring with these
authorities of the administration, and, I doubt
not, watching his customers very closely. If
tbey are in his debt and don't pay him, he
claps them into prison with an alacrity and
summarineBS of procedure whioh saceests a
most accommodating readiness among theoivll
authorities. He had a young hogllsh lord a
very flyblown specimen of -aristocracy, it
mnst be confessed, but still "a real lord," for
all that in that cheerful retreat not long ago;
perhaps he is there now. Besides the gambling
sa-'ooDB, sow in winter mere are tne Kursaai
reading rooms, liberally provided with
French, German, and English newspapers
and periodicals; a large concert and ball
saloon, in which there are twioe every day
really first-rate performances by an orohestra
of forty musioians; a luxuriously appointed
cafe", with billiard tables; a restaurant,
kept by a great Parisian restaurateur,
wlere (if you do not mind the smoke of
execrable German oigars while you are eating)
you may have as good a dinner as at the Trols
Freres in Paris; a superbly decorated theatre,
and a vast covered promenade nearly three
hundred feet long, deoorated with shrubs, ar
tificially warmed, and lined with seats, all
under one roof, and, witb the exception of the
theatre, gratuitously accessible to every one
provided witb tbe green card before referred
to. Ul course tne pleasure grounds, mineral
springs, conservatories, etc, all belonging to
tbe "administration," and by them kept in
order, are equally free to all comers, even
itbout a card. Tne current expenses of tbe
"administration" are in winter aoont 70,
and in summer 100 a day, not inolndiog the
salaries or some 01 tne more responsible em
ployes of the gambling bank, who are very
handsomely paid. The entire concern is the
property of the company, and it pays a divi
dend of upwards of twenty per cent., besides
its heavy annual tax Tor the "oonoession,"
and a variety of contributions whioh it is com
pelled to make to hospitals and institutions of
public utility. Whence tne company derives
these enormous pronts need not here be
pointed out. Men and women, smitten with
the gambling fever, are forever hastening to
bring their money to the cotters of the admin
istration. The more tbey lose the more they
play, until tbey have no more to lose; and if
tbey win, tbey beoome possessed with the
greed for more, and go on until they lose too
When all their money has gone under the
croupier's rake, and the ooin into whioh the
wont deplete has converted everything that
may be deposited tbere has followed where
tbe rest went, the penniless gamblers are fain
to seek an interview with the "administra
tion," who generally provide them with a
third class railway ticket to their homes, if
tbey have any, or to almost any tolerably dia-
tint town in Europe if they have not. This
highly moral and proper state of things is per
