The Rogaes' Gallery.

The Rogues' Gallery at the Police Head
quarters now contains nearly five hundred
pictures. 1t has risen to the dignity Of an
institution. Strangers coming to this city
as soon think Ofmissing look into the Dus-
seldorf Gallery. Astor Library, Cooper In
stitute. or Academy of Music on opera night,
as visit to the Pelice Headquarters to in.
Spect the gallery of rogues. Occasionally
queer visitor works his way among the in.
>pecting crowd.
The gallery Is in the second story, and the
attendant is Mr.. Brown, small, smiling and
atiable mn with spectacles. There is a
written catalogue in which are briefly chroni-
cled the names of the rogues, their chosen
speciality in the criminal calendar. age, height
and general appearance. This morning a.
mong host Of visitors, including several la
dies, IN the room was young man Of splen-
did height and figure. He was faultlessiy at.
tired. wore gold fo5 chain, kid gloves, and
very fine mufier. Very readily he would
have passed for an attache to some foreign
mission or young English my lord on vis-
il TO this country. He scanned the pictures
closely, and when CHANGING to step on la
dy's dress or Inadvertently obstruct her view
of Il picture, he would as apologeticaliy touch
his hat as politely as any polished disciple of
Chesterfield.
Detective officer Roach came into the gal
lery with that instructive habit which charac-
'erlzes smart detective; he quickly cast
lis eye about the room, his one glance Ia
king i'll the features of every visitor. He
gave second glance at the well-dressed
young man. He became interested. In q
moment just percepiible smile was appsr-
ent. Shortly he took stand at the same
picture case. The smile deepened into a
broad grin.
We'll, Jack. how are You ?" exclaimed the
detective.
g" no are you:'' asked the young man of
elegant apparel
Don't play otfon me, retorted Mr.. Roach.
YOU are Jack Donnolly-fne feathers make
fire birds. but know you for all your fine
clothes"
well, what's the odds" replied Jack. "you
have spotted me, but amt a fellow right to
dress decen,ly to 60 to decent places p
Certainly" said the detective; IL shan t
molest you; but how do You happen to hare
such fine tossery?'
"Won it on the ace" replied Jack. II
have system by which can break down
any Faro bank. Want TO be posted ?"
No. thank you,' replied the detective.
The conversation dropped here. Donnol-
ly did not linger but few minutes. His
portrait in the gallery is No. Ill. He is
known as pickpocket. shoplifter and bur-
glar. His likeness was added to the gallery
eighteen months ago. He now supports an
elegant moustache. and with this his muffler
ana clothes, he expected to pass unrecogni-
zed.

away from the lower part Of New York. the
good bishop congratulated the church that for
this century at least, the seminary would repose
amid The solitude OF the country, beneath the

noise and hustle Of busy city. Eut alas, the
old seminary is down town, and may be COM

Anton Lizardc, has ret reached this country.
There has been in the dispatches from tic sea-
board an unautLcuticated rumor that on his
return 10 the capital 1c would issue decree
c1pclling all Au,erIcans from the country, and
confiscating their property to the uses Of tile
State II ho should venture upon an e1pedicnt
like this, by which he would at oncc replenish
h's e1chcqucr, and CRAFTY his hate Of the
American name, the temper Of this country is
such that war would be inevitable. The des-
parat!on Of Miramon's situation will probably
impcl him to resort TO auy means By which he
may unite the Mexican nation under lis BAN
ner, and draw from European powers tho aid
without which Lis defeat would be certain.
We know nothing, except by common report,
Of tho alleged willingness Of Franco and Spain
to make common cause with IL: Church party
in Mexico. But it is certain, If common re-
port does not lie and if Miramon is possessor
Of half the sense which his leadership de-
mands. that sixty days will not clapse before

plot will hays proportions altogether exceed

PolJSamy Forbidden by the Mormon
Bible,

1u the course Of the debates on the Anti
polygamy bill, in the House Of Representatives,
both the supporters and opponents of that
measure seem TO have been hopeaessiy befpcced
upon the simple question whether po1ygamic
practices are enjoincd or forbidden in tie Nor
mon religious creed. sfr. Hooper, the delegate
from Utah, declares that '.Polygamy is q j,art
Of the Mormon faish." Mr. Pryor, who had
"e1a,nined the disgusting farrago called the
Mormon Bible" ayerrcd that he could find there
no word recognizing this tenet of belief
Neither Of these gentlemen we're right. The
member from Virginia did not read his COPY Of
10 Smiths iilblc with care; nor was the dele
gnte from Utah quito honest. Mr. Pryor Was
correct in asserting that tue Mormon canon
docs not recognize polygamy. but he omitted
the perusal Of ono chapter, which positively
for5sds it, and thus oversets Mr. Hoopsr's deo-
Ia! atom in the most summary manner
In the tDook Of Jacob" authorized edition
Of the Book Of Mormon" the following pas.
