THE GANBLERs IN TRoUBLE-Washingto
city, 1t is well known, is infested with an
extraordinary number of gambling bells: The
keepers ply their vocation with a boldness
almost unparalleled, and manage to decoy to
their dens many soldiers who earn their money
hardly. Willing victims in the shape of
Lave also so often been feeced, that the military
authorities have at last taken the matter in
hand, and on Tuesday night Col. Baker notified
the rropristors OF the different gambling houses
IN this city that they must at once close their
establishments, or they would be prosecuted 70
the full extent Of the law. Fer the time being,
therefore, these concerns are closed. The PEN
atty OF a disregard Of the injunctons of Colonel
Raier will, we understand, be the total destruc.
ticn of everything in the room Of the person
offending, and the comni.tal of the offenders to
prison. This order OF Col. Baker can give
crense to none but The army of gamblers and
their 'stool pigeons" who infast the city.
