CouRT OF QUARTER SEssIONs.-Judgc Ludlow.
About one week ago fourteen New York thieves
and bounty Jumpers emigrated to this city. Their
names are, John O'Brien, William Mulligan, Ed
ward Russell, John McCaun, Edward Harrison,
EDWARD Riley, John Sullivan, George Gttfney
Michael Craven, Hen. Wilson, Lawrence O'Brien,
Joseph Murphy, and William Broughter. Arrv
ing ut the depot, at Kensington, in the evening,
they took passage down in the Sixth street cars.
Among the passengers by that conveyance was
a man named Detwiler, and being unable TO resist
the instincts of their profession, they robbed him
of his watch He gave information OF his loss at
the Central Station, when officers at once went In
search of the thieves. Three OF the parties were
arrested at the Commercial Hotel, Sixth street
above Chesuut, and Mr.. Dctwer's watch was
found between the mattresses Of their bed.
The remainder Of the partyITere arrested at
Earle's Saloon, 9Th and Chestnut, where they had
gone TO get their supper.
The old adage is that "Justice is slow but
sure" In the case of the men whose history is
above given ii proved to be swift They were all
placed on trial yesterday. OF the fourteen
captured six were convicted, viz John OBrien,
Wm. Mulliganl Edward Russell, John McCann,
Edward Harrison, and Edward Riley, and were
sentenced; the first three named TO an imprson-
ment of three years in the Eastern Penitentiary,
and the last three TO the same imprisonment In
the County Prison.
The remainder of the fourteen, charged as
accessories, were acquitted but were required by
Judge Ludlow to enter into bonds in $4,000 to bl
of good behavior for one year; and not being
able TO enter security in such an amount the
parties were Of course committed.

These conscripts are the poorest fighting mute
