ceptacles of Cyprians, gamblers, and other land
pirates, are intended as occasional amusements
for the police. They add zest and spice
to the heavy and stupid business Of ar
rests for overwhelming under the new liquor
law; and they give an air OF activity
and enterprise to the police department,
of the most refreshing description. But
the initiated laugh in their sleeves, and from
the mock auctioneer to the wharf rat the idea
begins to, prevail that "those fellows at the
City Han are only making out" What will
all this come to by November Mexican any
body tell?
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1855-07-30

ADJUSTMENTS OF THE POLICE.-VERY Funny
Our model policemen, under our present
benefcent city administration, have a right
jolly time Of it, after all. BY way of amuse-
ment, once in two, three, four, five or six weeks,
an agreeable surprise is planned for the benefit
Of some particular establishment or two among
" the fancies" Of the respective districts. On
one night, for example, q general descent is
made upon the Cyprians in the streets. They
are captured by scores, tried, convicted, and
sent to Blackwell's' Island, to return agaio the
next day. The alarm subsides-the frail beau
ties are more numerous thar Ever on Broadway;
and people are beginning to wonder what has
become Of the Mayor and his police, when,
presto q detachment of our city sentinels
pounce down upon nest Of gambling shops,
and arrest the parties In attendance, and
carry them up for examination. Next morning,
for lack of evidence they are acquitted, and
the gambling saloons flourish more openly than
ever. They have been tried; they can't be
reac he'd, and they 60 bravely on.
Next we hear of the arrest of a lottery policy
dealer or 90, or fortune teller or two, or a lot
Of baggage smashers,n or emigrant runners,
or something OF that sort and that is the last
that we hear Of them from the authorities
They slip through the meshes Of the lay like
eels. and 20 On with their respective contrabaad
pursuits as before. We can only cJnciude tha.
these suader surprises against ne ders and re
