The Comet in Hayti.

New York, Nov. 12.-The captain of
the brig Letitia, arrived to-day from
Miragoane, reports that Sept. 81, when
near st. Marc, Hayti, large comet of
great brilliancy was seen, bearing east by
south, and visible for some time after the
sun rose. The captain says the comet was
visible in Hayti for some time, very large
and brilliant. AS we came northward it
diminished in size and brightness, and ap-
peared to be moving in a more southerly
direction over Hayti. It was seen as late as
10 a. NJ, in the day, and appeared much
larger than on our approach to New York
Most people in Hayti think their last days
have come. After the comet of last year
they had small -pox, and lost upwards of
sixty thousand lives throughout the do
mlnlons. They always look upon comet
as a bad omen. and are at a loss to know
what this will bring them.

SIN ANO SORROW.

What Is to be Seen at the City Rastile of a
Ss'"day Night-Shame and Deysadafion--
-4tn'ost an Involuntary Suicide.
1t was molly crowd which filed the
cells at the city lookup last night. There
were in all eighteen persons enrolled for
an appearance before his honor this morn
ing, and sbudge" was the primary cause
OF each incarceration. Among the num-
bea were two depraved females. The coz
duct of the prisoners respectively was
quite diversified. Some laughed, chatted
and joked; others wept and cried, bemoan-
ing the fatewhich had led them into disgrace
and durance; some sang Justify, and some
shouted themselves hoarse, while Others
slept soundly. All with the excep-
ton of Thayer, the ''tony" young
man who was taken into custody
for obtaining $3.50 under false pretenses.
had been arrested while drunk, and money
will be required to answer to charges of
disorderly conduct. One man who was
excessively drunk when ''taken in" came
near committing involuntary suicide. He
didn't appreciate the kind hospitality of
his host Matt Bross, and thought to shake
down the iron door. He struggled and
pulled. pushed and kicked desperately, but
the massive grating withstood the onset
unaffected. In his endeavors to batter down
the door, however, the victim of de-
pravity fell against projection in his cell
and inflicted serious cash in his head,
and before discovered by the jailer the
stone floor was literally covered with gore
and the man was weak and faint from the
loss of blood. He was kindly cared for,
and last night when asked how he felt, re-
piled, ''Much better; loosing that blood
did me heap % good; had too much
blood in me before"
The friends of the prisoners occasionally
relieved the monotony of the station
by calling and petitioning the authorities
for the release of their friends Owing to
the crowded condition of the lookup, oc-
casionally the lock would be taken off the
cell of hayward and his personal liberty
be granted until the session of the munich
pal court this morning, npon the payment,
as security for his appearance, a stipulated
sum of money. One Of the visitors who
called to see prisoners was woman. Her
hubby had been on spree, and conse-
quentIy ''taken in" She. too. cave
positive evidence of liberal draughts
from the flowing bowl. She beckoned the
chief, saying she had something to commu-
nicate. Before beginning her petition
she opened the well springs, and tears
flowed copiously. She wanted to see her
'Gussy,' but the chief politely informed
her that she could not. Her ''Gussy'' was
in no condition to receive calls. She took
her departure bewailing her fate SO loudly
as to arouse the chickens that had gone to
roost IN the neighborhood of her crooked
path homeward. So was the programme
continued into the wee sma' hours
