The London journals generally dis
approve OF the proposed visit of the

deprecates unnecessary agitation, aud
hopes that the Governors, considering
that only one service IL contemplated
will not make the institution ride

Tweeds friends say he is to be re-
leased from the penitentiary this
morning. IL Is expected that he will be
taken to the District Attorneys Office
and thence to the court of Oyer and
Terminer, when the bail in the crimi-
nal action, under which II bench war
rant was recently issued, will be fixed.
If he gives the required bail he will
probably be arrested by the Sheriff on
the order of arrest granted in the civil
suit for six hundred thousand dollars.
Tweed's counsel may, however, move
in the Supreme Court Chambers to-day
for the release of their client or for the
reduction of the three hundred thous-
and dollar bail named in the order of
arrest.
LATER-William NJ. Tweed this af-
terno0n appeared in the court house
in charge ofDeputy Sheriff McGonigle.
All the city newspapers have been rep
resented on Blackwell's Island for a
week past and the representatives had
many promises made them that Tweed
would leave the penitentiary with their
full knowledge. Notwithstanding this
he was struggled Off last night and
brought to the city, where, according
to the deputy sheriff. he drove around
in carriage. 1t was generally expect
ed that he would be brought to court
to-day, and large number of people
gathered in the vicinity of the court
house for the purpose of getting sight
of HIM. This morning he went to his
office in Duane street and spent some
time in consultation with his coun-
sci, after which he proceeded
to the District Attorneys Office, ac-
cOmpanied by his son and his private
secretary, in the Supreme Court Cham
bers. One of his counsel--Mr Will
lard-presented to Judge Davis the fol-
lowing order, which was signed by
him:
At special term of the Supreme Court
in the city of New York, on the ODD
day of June, 1875, present Hon. Noah
Davis, Justice. The people of the
State of New York in relation of w.
M. Tweed, plaintiff, in error against
James l.. Liscomb, Warden of the
Penitentiary of the city of New York
draft in error. The relator, William
Nj. Tweed, having prose 'uted his writ
of error to the court of Appeals from the
order of judgment of this court, bear
ing date the - day of March, 1875,
which order of Judgment was duly en-
tered by the clerk of this court,
and the court of Appeals having
reversed said order or Judgment of
this court, and having directed the
discharge OF relator; now on reading
and filing the remittature from the
said court of appeals and on motion of
Mr. w. Bartlett, Attorney for the re-
lator, it is ordered that the order and
judgment of the court of appeals herein
be and the same is hereby made the
order and judgment of this court; and
it is further ordered that the said rela-
tor, William M. Tweed, be and is
hereby discharged from the Warden of
the penitentiary of the State of New
York.
In the Court of Oyer and Terminer,
before Judge Brady, Mr.. Foster Dewey
was the first of the Tweed party to en-
ter. He had hardly taken his seat
when Tweed entered in charge of the
Deputy Sheriff. He walked rapidly |
across the room and took his seat be-
side counsel. In very short time the
room was packed with people, and
numbers clamored for admittance. |
District Attorney Phelps arose and adj
dressed the court, asking that Will
liam Nj. Tweed be arraigned to
plead to an indictment found against |
him in Novem Der, 1873. Mr.. David |
Dudley Field, ON behalf of Mr.. Tweed, |
said they were not ready TO plead or
make a motion to quash; that they had |
only received notice Of this Indictment
a few days since, and therefore time |
ought to be allowed to examine mat
tiers.
Mr.. Peckham stated that 1t was evil
dent that the defendant intended to |
pursue his old tactics and stave of all |
proceedings as long as possible. Mr..
Field disdained any such intention,
and stated that time ought to be allow
ed to examine the case, and if forced
to enter to the plea they would de-
mand the right to withdraw at any
time. 1t was a shame and cruelty
wrong to find an indictment in 1873
and then two years after call them up
without warning to plead to it. Coun-
sci further stated that IL they were
forced to plead by desision of the
court, he would ask that the right be
given him to move to quash the indict-
meDt after the plea was entered. A le-
gal war of words followed, which
lasted nearly an hour, Messrs Phelps
and Pickham, on behalf of the people,
claiming that such thing was I'M
heard of i'm law, except in special cases
unlike the present one, and there was
no reason why this case should be
made special one or special favor be
shown to the defendant. At this point
Mr.. Field arose and demanded TO know
what special favors had been shown or
would be. My client, said he, has for
seven months been illegally confined
in the penitentiary, and when, after
this outrage, an outrage
for which every one concerned in il
shall be held strictly accountable, and
after he is released by higher power
than themselves, 1t is wrong, it is un-
Just, to ask us to plead to an indict-
ment OF which we know nothing.
Counsel further said that il would not
be considered special favor to issue
in the civil suit of six mil !
ions dollars, and to fix the bail at the
enormous figure of three million dol
ars.
