The Trial OF THE DRuRYs-MoRE MYSTERIES

COMING OUT-SUppEN DISAPPEARANCE OF WARNER
ARREST AND IMPRISONMENT OF OyE-EYKD THohP-
soS.-The trial of the two Drurys, on the charge
of making and sending the famous torpedo to the
house of Warner, and there exploding, was again
called up in the CO1It of Oyer and Terminer, yes
terday; but it was again postponed and set down
for Friday (to-monow), in consequence OF the ex-
traordinsry and sudden disappearance of Warner
himself, the principal witness and accuser OF Drury
The debate and decision growing out of these
matters, will be found elsewhere in our columns,
and will be read with increased and increasing in
terest.
It seems, from all that has been developed thus
far, that Warner has been preparing for this dis
appearance for some time past On the l4th inst,
by the public records il appears that he confessed
judgment on his real estate in New York, in ia
vor of Doctor Mofat, for $1,000 and some Odds
The furniture of his house was removed on Tues
day, or few days since, and he himself has gone
of to the country-to the springs-to the sea
shore-to Califonis-to Europe--or to the devil
no one seems to know-not even Mr. M'keon, the
District Attorney, or his assistant, Mr.. d. Graham,
who ought to know.
Now this is a most singular disappearance of
principal witness, under all the circumstances of
the mystery. According to the proceedings yes
terday it seems that Mr. Horace F. Clark pre-
sented notice some months since, calling upon
the prosecuting attorney to take measures for the
purpose of securing the attendance of Warner, as
is frequently the practice in other criminal cases.
To this notice, neither Mr.. Mckeon nor MIR. Ora
ham paid any attention. In consequence of this
negligence a principal witness is found abb
sent, and the ends of public justice are defeated
and delayed. Is this right, or proper or vigilant
What will Mr.. McKeon do in such a dilemma
Why did he not secure the attends nce of Warner
and his Witnesses Will not malicious people
associate the high character of Messrs McKeon
and Graham with such mysterious disappear
ance 7 Where has Warner gone Who has ac-
companisd him Z, Is Miss Busby with him? Is
there any clause in the famous new code that can
solve this difficulty that can anravel this mys-
terry?
We see no other solution than for Mr.. McKeon
to proceed to trial at once with the Drurys-to
settle that frs-and then 10 take instant steps
in search of the true cuprts. 1t is time 10 begin.
He has delayed long enough. IL is time TO show
that he knows his duty. Already the preparatory
steps are taken to reach the real criminals, and TO
do ,ardy justice 20 innocence. We see that Mr.
Mckeon, himself, has Issued an attachment for
Warner-and we learn further, that warrants have
been issued by Justice Mountlort for the arrest
of Warner and One-eyed Thompson, on the cr-
minal charge of conspirng to make and to send
that torpedo for the purpose of blowing up old Mrs
Warner, and thereby creating vacancy in War
ner's heart and house, to be filled up with the
beautiful Miss Busby One:eyed Thompson was
arrested yesterday afternoon, and is now in
.x..a Ill IL. -
to learn that warrants were soon TO be issued for
the arrest of Wilkes, Warner, and Thompson-all
in row-for conspiracy in the famous rat council
in Brooklyn, and in other acts, for the pur-
pose Of sending Drury, an innocent old man,
10 the State prison for term of years.
The tables are now turned-and the truth of
the torpedo mystery is coming out, slowly
but surely. Benjamin Galbraitb, the never firing
and vigilant counsel, was the first who dug out of
obscurity the real lineaments Of that mystery, in
the libel suit lately brought by Wilkes, to screen
himself; and Mr.. G. possesses afiidavts and evil
denc- this subject, which, if made public, would
astound the whole world, and all the stool pigeon

| This strange case comes up again tomorrow,

Keen will take TO get out Of the dilemma into
which his good heart, but simple intelects, have got
him, by the arts of Warner and his gang. We
shall quit this subject until justice is dealt to
all commemorative innocent as well as the guilty
