Arrest of Notorious Thieves.

Supposed to be the Robbers Of Bishops
 Jewelry Establfshment--Clev Work
 of Chief Webster and His Detectives.
 Last evening Detectives Brewer and Reilly arrested three notorious New York thieves and cracksmen, whom it is understood are following in the wake, of Parnell and Dillon, and making raids by picking pockets and
 ''cracking" stores as they have an opportuni- ty. They were seen on the street yesterday morning, and, acting suspicious, were
 s'shadowed" by Brewer and Reilly, and Chief Webster gave helping hand. Last evening they followed them down Chapel street to the Elliott House, where they mingled with the crowd, evidently intent on picking some un- suspecting persons pocket. The detectives had become convinced that these strangers were the parties who had robbed Bishops jewelry establishment, and hence were watch ing them more closely. They finally decided to arrest them, and one being pointed out to Officer Cook was taken into custody, while the detectives took charge of the two others. Brewer took his man into Eugers clothing store to search him, but found nothing sus- picious. The fellow offered to do the ''square" thing if Brewer would re- lease him, but the officer indig- uAntly refused the DF1Oe. D6teCt1V6 Reilly started for the station house with his man, and in front of the COURIER office boy ran up to the officer and said, 'sMister, that fellow has got pistol in his hand" Reilly turned to his prisoner and said, 'Tf you at tempt to raise your hand to me I will blow out your brains" Just at this juncture a gen. tleman stepped up and seized the fellows hand and held on to it until the station house was reached. On searching him the pistol, a six shooter, was found in his pocket with five chambers loaded and one discharged. When the trio reached the police office they were at once recognized by Chief Webster and they recognized him. One;was the notorious Wes. ley Allen, a brother of The. Allen of New York, the second was James Fl. Johnson, and the third was William Brown, alias Benton. There was no mistake in their identity, and the fel- lows ''wilted." They said they had done nothing wrong since their arrival in the city, and there is really no proof as yet that they have, although they are strongly suspected of robbing MT. Bishop, and it is thought that after the robbery they may have left their bag the jewelry in some saloon in the city. A search will be made for it to-day. One thing is evident, that from the very eff cient work of Chief Webster and his detec- lives many persons were saved the loss of valuables by having their pockets picked last evening.

ALOst Politician
 An eloquent politician, during the last great campaign of the Whig party, suddenly left the speakers platform never to reappear. He should have treated his cold with a few doses of Roberts Syrup of Tar, Boneset and Wild Cherry. and cured his cough and sore throat at the beginning of the trouble. This medi- cine tranquillizes pain in the chest and heals the exacerbated lungs. It is the best cure for sudden colds attainable. Sample bottle ten cents. large size fifty cents.

 Ezra Bishop is a jewelry manufacturer, having two rooms on the second floor of Dwight building, one of which is used as a salesroom, while the other Is used as 8 work room. MT. Bishop left his place of business for dinner yesterday about noon. Before leaving he covered his show case as usual, locked his safe and when he went out locked the doors behind him. The show case con- tained about 5000 worth of jewelry. He re- turned about 1:15 D. m. and found that one of the locks on the salesroom door had been tempered with On entering the salesroom he found that the show case had been robbed worth of other goods were intact. The police were notified and Detective Reilly took the case in hand, but up to the present writing no clue had been obtained of the thieves. As people are continually passing through the building it is remarkable that no one was seen about MT. Bishops door. It will be recol- lected that the room of George Olmstead the jeweler, which was in the same building, was robbed in 8 similar way some months since.

Blasting Accident in West Haven.
 Quite serious accident occurred in West Haven yesterday afternoon at about o'clock. The Clark brothers, Edward B. and John A., residing on Elm street, near the New York and New Haven railroad, were blasting rocks opposite their residence. They had put in a charge which had failed to explode, and they were trying to drill it out. One of them held the drill while the other was striking, and while thus at work the old charge exploded, injuring one of them in the arm and hand, and filling the others face with powder and burning his eyebrows and hair. Dir. Shepard was called and dressed their wounds, and says they will have to lie by for while, and that it was a narrow escape.

farmers in Ireland, and will leave it to the people of this country, who enjoy free school education, to calculate for me the following sum: If it takes two days and 15O consta- bles to nail writ on the door of one tenant farmer Caughter), how many days and how many constables will it take to eject the 600, COG tenant farmers? (Great applause The speak CT had great hopes of the result of an ava kened sentiment in this country for Ireland, upon England. England shrank now before if. (Applause.) He was proud of the young Irish Americans of this country. Itseemed to him they were more Irish than the Irish themselves. (Applause.) He believed that when the time came to strike Irishmen would fight for Ireland to the last drop of blood. (Tremendous applause.) Now the task was to help Ireland by helping the starving and to abide the time till successful blow could be struck. (Great applause.)
 MIR. DILLON.
 Mir. Dillon was now introduced and spoke with force and spirit for about half an hour of Ireland's wrongs, of the nature of the land owning oppression, of the events in the past century to show that England had managed to hurt Ireland, and urged that @ different course would have saved much suffering, bloodshed and misery. The movement in progress was sneered at first in London, but was now rec ognlzed as power, especially since the United States Congress had accorded the priv ilege of its floor to Parnen and himself -as friends of Ireland. He attacked the Mansion House relief committee as conducted by men whom Ireland despised, and cited cases where work had been afforded for relief and wages given which were simply starvation in an other form. He, like MT. Parneu, was lis tened to with great interest and frequently excited great applause. In half million Irish homes he said the evening and morning prayer was that England's day of retribution and humiliation might come.
 REV. DR. DENNEN.
 Rev. Dr. Dennen was introduced, and said he was called not to make speech but to put the snapper on. He was to make the appli cation of the sermon. The audience might now feel for their pocketbooks. Dean Swift preached only one charity sermon. His text wass "He that giveth to the poor lendeth to the Lord. Then he added, ''n you like the security down with the cash" Daughter Now how much do you love Ireland? "A voice, ''Ten dollars."] (AppIanse.) Dr. Dennen told another story illustrating pity. The Frenchman pitied the poor woman ten
