Cioagh'S Escape attempfed-The &C.
LIBERATED Joel Clough was yesterday
discovered in the endeavor to break
Jail at Mount Holly. He had posses.
sed himself Of a sharp stone, with
which he had succeeded in making a
hole entirely through the wall, so that
light could be seen in the aperture. In
very short time he would have crea-
ted space large enough for egress.
He has presented a very debilitated
appearance since his sentence: this is
supposed to have been caused by his
incessant labors to escape from prison.

and his companions leave this morning
for their own country, via Albany.
They have visited the Theatres,
Museums, and Public Gardens, and in
every instance have attracted great
crowds of people, anxious to see the
savages who have dipped their hands
in the blood of SO MANY white men.
They visited Governors Island yester.
day, previous to which they had col
lected at their rooms all the presents
of beads, rings, chains, glasses, pic.
lures, knives, &c. &C., which have
been presented to them by various in
dividuals, and on examining and ad.
miring them they became much affect.
ed, and shed tears profusely. The
Warrior Naa Pope, who has always
been stubborn and perverse, and who
has never been moved before, was par.
Iticularly affected by the exhibition of
presents which he had received. Ma.
jor Garland has conducted his charge
in most satisfactory manner, and we
have no doubt the object of the Govern.
ment will be fully effected, and that
we shall hear no more of the warlike
Excursions of Black Hawk and his
Tribe against the Whites.
