ENirGOrdinary Escape from Prison.

ON the morning of Friday last, feat in tho
wy of PRISON breaking took place IN Glasgow
winch We believe to be almost unprrallolrd.
Btrwecn eleven and twelve O'Clock on the pre-.
vluuS night, young IrlSh lad. named FranclS
casey, was brought to the Police Office.
cinrged wlth hrvluG attempted - pass cuun-
'rrt"!t shilling. i!r was confined m one OF
ih" cells on the iinid floor of the building,
whlch are set apart for temporary coniinrmen'
at persons detained ON crlunnal charges.
These cclis have hitherto been cuuS red IT,
possess every element of scculty winch the
mind of man could devise. The door Is :"
strong that could only ne forced IN by can
non sho, hut even slough 1t we've lct, open by
any chance Of negligence on the par, oi the
turnkey, the prisoner would nat Gnl himself
much nearer hi- liberty. for he w"u!i rcqu,,
10 pass several her doors, car@ll'iA waichrj
by officers, before he could rc,cn the street.
Escape IN tins direction was ,hcrci'pre oul of
the question. As there is neither fireplace nor
chimney IN the cell, the only other op ming M
the thick W Ill Is lht! furnished by suil 4hp
or ioop hole, enclosed with substantial stone
forming an opening of about fourteen inches
Hgh, and about four IN width, But tn make
matters more secure, there Is nilled o. screwed
over tins opening, on the inside, strong IRON
plate, more than thirty pounds weight, and
whCa beng perforated with small holes, ad
mlts as u uch li9ht in the daytime as Just
serves to m'ke darkness visible. To such rn
apartment was Casey trinSierred, ulle after
twelve o'clock on Friday mrrnrnG, Ahort two
O'Clock on the same morning, wnlle the heu
tenant on duty was engaged IN his ordinary
business he was almost Supplied wI,h amaze
n'nt by observing the identical G Cisey brought
INTO the office by two watchn"n. The cell
forthwith eXunlneh. / he large iron plate
nlr' dy referred to aS covering the wicket had
been wrenched of by an act of almost super
hamln strength. by ta,lnG advantage of sone
point at which the heavy screw nails mnst have
been loosen d. and thereby have afforded an
onenlng for the Insertion of the fingers or hand.
TINS effected, there renamed n slip or opening
through winch It would be difficult To pass an
Inianl but Ciscy, uoln. the lron plate as a

bltterlng-riin, knocked off the stone rybs or
lnclngs of the loophole, until hehad made All
opening 9 1-2 inches i width, According t
his own account. he then squeezed his head
aud shoulders with great difficulty through the
opening, and by the grey dawn of the
morning looked down upon the lane which
bounds the western side of The police build
ings, from n height Of three lofty stories
The lads own account of his further pro
cedure is rather confused, and this l. not sur
prlslng, for it Is now ascertained that his mind
has been in somewhat disordered state for
some time past. 1t is evident, however that he
must have wriggled his body forward anj
downward, and IN all probability he hung hy
his tret, TIL he conld touch with his b nds TIE
outer coinice or eniablature of the great win
dow OF the o ice court, which IS situate j im-
