BROKE JAIL.-The report OF pistol
about nine o clock last night caused us
to call at the Jail, where everybody
appeared to be excited about the escape
of some prisoners 1t appears that the
colored State prisoners confined in the
third story of the Jail tore up some
planks and knocked .ew brick out Of
the west WALL four of them descending
to the alley adjoining by means Of q
rope made out of their blankets. One
made his way over the fence in the rear
and escaped, the other three worked
their way forward into the paint shop
adjoining the front of the Jail, and en-
deavored to push the door down, which
attracted the attention Of one of the as
sistant jailers, when they were captured
aud returned to prison. Charley Har-
ris, the one who made his escape, was in
for stealing a flute from Mr.. Ainslie's
residence short time since. The Crimi-
nal Court having adjourned without
trying these men, the prospect of lying
in the filthy jail until next session of
court, no doubt, caused them to make
a desperate effort to escape II is some
what singular that an escape was at
tempted in the same manner last win
ter, the new bricks put in at that time,
being the very ones pushed ont last
night

A Crazy NEaRo-Persons living in
the neighborhood of the Jail were much
annoyed last night by a man shouting
" Murder" Save me, and other excla-
nations, as il he was being abused in
terrible manner, which was kept up, at
intervals, from nine o'clock until after
midnight On inquiry, we learned that
the noisy individual was a negro named
Peter Ford, who is crazy and impressed
with the idea that his wife has bewitched
him and wishes to get him out OF the way
to obtain his money, and marry some one
else. He complained at the station-house
a couple of nights since, of the various
tricks his wife had prscticed and it being
evident that he was insane, was locked
up. On searching his person about
twenty-five hundred dollars was found in
his pocket Last night he was in the
same room from which the prisoners
made their escape, and he says they would
all have got out but for him. A short
time after the hole had been stopped
from whence the prisoners escaped, the
attention of the officers was attracted by
the shouting of the prisoners, and the
cries of murder" and they found the
crazy negro, who had nothing on but a
pair Of shoes and handouts, busily en-
gagged throwing pieces of brick at his
fellow prisoners, who were trying to
dodge the missiles. They had quite a
fight, the crazy man being wounded in
several places, but claiming the victory.
he was taken to cell, where he cutup
generally until about midnight, when
he became exhausted and fell asleep,

The RIoTs.-In the riot report, made
by the Congressional Committee, is a
statement that John Park, the Mayor,
seems to have been utterly unequal to
the occasion, either from sympathy with
the mob, or on account of Drunkenness,
during the whole time. He appeared on
the ground with the mob, in company
with one Charles s. Cameron, who was
subsequently called before your commit
tee to prove the good character of the
people Of Memphis, and they were both,
according to the testimony of Mr.. }.
Oldridge, three-quarters drunk, and
were walking arm in arm. Park did
nothing, certainly, to suppress the riot
and so far as his influence was con-
cerned, it tended to incite it, still further
disgracing himself, if he could be dis
graced, and stamping with undying in
fanny, the city Of which he was the hon
ored chief magistrate.
Mr.. Cameron addressed note TO Mr..
j. Oldridge yesterday, inquiring if he
was the deponent therein named, and if
he was correctly reported, to which Nj.
0ldridge replied: II have to say that |
was before the Committee as witness.

which makes me say that you were
