NoRE MYSTERIES OF THE ToMRs-OrEHIRG OF
THE SECOND SEAL-OEE-EYEp THoMpsoN AT LAST
IN THE FIEID.-Talk TO us no longer of the Nyste-
mes OF Udopho, OF the secrets of the Inqusiton of
The privacies of the Talmud or the criminal dramas
oil Parls. America rs beginning TO rival Europe in
every element which marks the progress of crime
and civilization. The mysteries of the Tombs,
and of It's dependencies, in this great metropolis,
present as much originality, of dramatic charac-
ter, as any thing which can be paralleled in Eu-
rope
The recent famous trial Of the Drurys, father
and son, upon a charge of making the torpedo
which exploded in Warmers dwelling, resulted in
nothing. That was only the beginning of the first
scene in the curious dsalua Of the mysteries in
New York The second scene will be opened to-
day, at the criminal court of Brooklyn before
Judge Morse, and the famous mysterious, extraor-
binary, word-bewtching One-eyed Thompson, will
be placed before the bar on a charge of passing
counterfeit money, or something similar The
charge will not produce an eruption like that of
Mount Vesuus or Mount Etna; but his trial may
bring out in It's progress, some curious and nte-
resting secrets connected with the vast conftderacy
of stoolpgeonsn, which lately in the Drury trials
startled the world from its propriety in these re-
intends TO engage certain lawyers in the defence of
One-eyed Thompson, and among them we learn
that John and David Graham may be retained, the
first certain. In addition to this, the case may be
aided in lis details, on the side of One-cyed Thomp-
son, by Enoch c. Camp. All the original parties
in this interesting drama, from George Wilkes
round TO Marcus Tulius Cicero Stanley, will more
or less take their respective parts, either in front
behind the scenes 1t will be an interesting trial,
and will, doubt, during its continuance, stop the
sale of all the French novels of the day, and amoa
bankrupt some of our wandering, bare-footed Bib
liopoles. But, no matter for that, the lawyers and
other machinery retained for One-eyed Thompson,
and the newsboys viii reap an abundant harvest
in the month of April-thus reversing the order of
the seasons.
Ifpeople should ask of MS what mean 10 do,
role is simple We shall give the fullest and
most complete report of the whole trial connected
with these mysteries of the Tombs and which is
calculated to enliehten the present generation in
the mysteries of stool-pgeoning revived of late
years, and improved over the days of the famous
Bill Wiley Ii is difficult position to be indie
pendent, but we win try.
The public may, therefore, depend that the fullest
and most impartial reports ofthe progress ofthese
rous trials, and their results will be published daily
in the columns of this journal. So prepare for the
opening of the second seal, which comes on in
Brooklyn, to-day, on the trial of One-eyed Thomp-
son, the great hero of the modern drama of stool
pigeonism, Nc., &c., &c.
