GAMBLING IN New YoRK.--For three days past
tria has been pending in the Circuit Court which
has created great deal of attention. and collected
vast crowds of spectators, in consequence of the
revelations made by the witnesses of the extent
and peculiarities of the gambling houses of New
York. These developments have, indeed, been re-
markable, but they are nothing to what yet re-
mains behind, and what well known to the po-
lice, and almost protected by them.
Yet the influence OF the gambling houses in Bar.
clary street, Vesey street, and that neighborhood,
deleterious and immoral it is, is hardly to be
compared to that Of the regular gambling houses
and gambling system in Wall street. The up town
gambling houses operate in the hours of darkness,
unseen and unknown except to those who resort
to their dens; but the down town gambling houses
operate in the light Of MONDAY and in the face OF
heaven and earth. Which are the worst! Let
our readers Judge.
