Xcw York 1 > tircss. Gradually the ancient l.Midmniks uf London are passing away , and among liioso which will , in nil probability , remain buta short tiiuo longer , is the prison of Nuwtato. ( Fr'emiontly con demned as uimnitiry , b.ully nrranicd ; and unfit for the purpose to which ii was put , Nowgato lias continued to lrtnd until at last the oommissionors of prisons Imvo reported against its retention ) nnd it only remains for the homo secretary to confirm their do- cinion. According to nresclit arrange nicnta tliero will bo no now jail on the sitd of the one now waiting to bo pulled down. Clcrfcomrcll nrison will become the central lock-up foi1 Lon don malefactors ; the courts of law which compose what is known as the Old Uailoy will bo enlarged so as to cover the upaco now occupied by tin prison , and no more trace wijl bo left of Newgate than there is ol Tyburn truo. A hideous and un- siyhtly objoctfjs that which will thus disappear. Dlnck with smoke , ' though not n century old until next ye.ir , it defaces a great thoroughfare , and in fuses n gloom into nil who pass by it ? grimy portals. It never hud nny pro- tontiona to architectural beauty Dance , \wlio built it 1732 , had but one idejiJ Tf\to years' previous Jiad seen the , ! Gordon riots , .and the great , fire which followed ; thu traditions of crim inals at the time when the architect w.is called in were principally records of jail-breaking , and Mr. l3.\nco de clared that he would erect an cditice fld ( strong that no ono inside would gel out , and no ono outside should got iii. How far ho succeeded , time has shown. The dismal buildim ; stands aa stoutly as 'pvor , 8ecuro 'against dynamite namito conspiracies and gunpowder plots ; and.wcre outer solidity nil that wad required in a jail , it Anight , con'- flnuo to datkon Newgate street for many year - to come. JJut thesa are days when t .o health oMiardoncd ami habitual criminals is looked after , and when ; pestilence must neb threaten oveii 'tho criminal ; nnd'tho result is that tli6 narrow cells , 'dark passages and dull yards will soon be swcpl away and prisonorH will know the in terior of them no moio. UEJIIMbOKNI.'KS OF Nowcato is one of the most appall ingly interesting Htructurcs in the country. If it H not exactly the samu jail as that which Ilarnaby lludgo stormed and in which Fa in spent his last nichr , if Dr. Dodd tenanted the predoceasor of the present nriaon nnd read the sermon , which Dr. Johnson composed for him" in a chapel which has never haen pulled , down , still the scanos which have been witnessed in the dungeon now1 threatened with re moval nro thrilling enough for moru than passing interest. 11 o it W.IB that ThistletTood oxcJUiniod , "I shall soon know the last grand ficcret"hcro ; Gov.

' Newgato itself goes because it is a thing of the past and does not belong * at all to thu ago in which wo live. Uotl the , prison , Us calendar , and "moral reflections , " are out of all place at a time when the , prevention of crlmo , 'rather ' than retnliiation and rovonij'p , aio the object of the law , Great 'imprwpmonta have no doubt taken plncu iu , Nuwgata HJIICU it was erected by Mr , Uaiico. It was in 1817 that Mip.Kiy firi.t gavJ her attoijliou to tho'conditmu of tlio ftiiualo priRon- era incnrooratod vilih'\n \ i jfw.dls , and paBSt-d'thoj ' greater pail of her tim ? amongst thu wrotuhod en ntures "wliom accident and uiiiiio iiidcoiilnifd tlierc , A very Ht.ujutur | on nnd'vntt chunyo j were to bo beou in the management < f tho. jail , ' .which contimi-jd to bo well looked after till 183G when one Inoro n belter system of supcrvMo nnd 1ho separation of hnrdom'd crim itmls front debtors were rccominctmtid The. yeir 1813 witnessed yet olln ; alterations , and so the prison Vtontoi improving , now wards being built , th women being wholly separated fron the men , while fuither etups wcr token to mi'ct the growing demands o the scientific fnnilation. Two year ago Newgate came under now control p.issing out of the hands of the civi mandates. Then the < iuostion yor properly arose whether in Olerkenwcl the criminnlfl who nre sent to nm from the Old Dniloy could not b better provided for. This qtioiy hn it seems been answered ill the ath'rma tive , und a vciy short time will claps before the black walls and doors ant dismal cells u ill be pulled down , nm Newgate and its associations an broken up forever. THE STAGE PROMPTER. A Theatrical Personage "VVlio Ii Oftener Hoard ThaiiSoou. K w York SunHny Times. The promptor'a dutiesinro by no means unimportant ones ; they commence menco with the r > diears.il of thu piece when he distributes their parts to the various people. At rehearsals1 while the stage manager is directing , he i kept buay writing out parts for tin ch.ingcH of scene to guide the stage c.vrpcntois. lists of the propoiticn re quired for the property man , schedules of the fui nituru and tapestries to bo borrowed , andof the wnrdrpbo requir ed for the supernumeraries. AH re gard the duties I'rom which ho derives his name , if any ono fancies they nro easy to perform , he had better try them. It is a great deal moro dillieul to stand in thu wings with a plny-hoo ! in your hands and follow what is being ing said than it is to do it from tlu front of the house. Thu promptei must follow the piece line for line , If an actor baits in hi * speech for a moment ho must throw him the word he knows the forgetful Thea plan is groping for. If an actrcs looks nupealiogly at the entrance , he knows she is stuck , and it is hie duty to help her out Some actors boast that they neve : stick. No matter if they have total ly forgotten their lines they 'nai somotlndg , ' aa they phrase it , and . have never seen the difference noYci by the audience yet. Once , while . ' was making the rounds of the golden Pacific coatit , twenty ycais or so n o , T went to HCO a performance of "Mae both , " by the company of n friend o miiiu iu San Francisco. Jt was n tough company n band of rcgulatioi old time barn-stormers , and the fel low who played Macbeth was HO far gone in the dreamy vacancy of whisk ] that he "gagged" his part moro thai once in his iirst scene. Finally , it the middle of his second , ho was also dead lost. Ho hesitated , but onlj for a moment. Then he threw hu atms around Laby Macboth's waist , and , drawing her to him , cooly said "Let us retire , dearest chuck , and coi this matter over in a moro sequester ed pot , far from the busy haunts o nier. Hero the walls and doois are spies , and our every word is cchocc : far and near. Come , then , let's away False heart must hide , you know , what false heart dare not show. " They made their exit in a roar of np plauso , and 1 thought , "There's a man who has no use for a prompter , sure enough. " , Alt actors arc not like him , however. Raw actors are tlu * prompter's horor. The debutant * is another. Shu wil forget every line the moment shu strikes the singe , nnd bo NO norvoup , moreover , that she will not buyable to rcpe.it those the prompter rends t her. 1 remember ono young liuly who thought she had a mission to play Juliet , She made her appear ance , supported by a country company and lost every line as n&u.il. Wo prompted her through her tirst scene somehow. Wht-n the balcony scene was on , her mother syood on the lad der boliind her , reading her .speeches , word for word , which she repented But the old lady was a heavy weigh ) , and the step ladder was no longer in the flower uf youth ; so , iu the middle of the farewell , itg.ivo way. The olii lady was tumbled forward against the ricketiy staging of the balcony , and it fell ngaiimt the sot piece that mask ed it fiom the audience. So Juliet , mother , balcony , and all toppled down onllomco , and by the time ho watt extricated from the wreck he was as mouinful a lover as the play makes him out to be. There is a rigid rule in the theatre against anyone lounging in the prom pter's corner but the ladiea of the company hare a charming fashion ol violating it. They ate continually .slipping in to thu forbidden apace to get a glimpse nt their linea in the prompt boojc. They have their parts to consult , but theru is a fascination about the pronqitoi's volume that is irresistible. AB its owner , however , is usually on oed toims with nil tlio fair mi'inbcrs of ( ho compiny , he don't object ; unless putting bin arm around Uio w.u'st of one , or chucking mother under the chin in a fumili.tr w.iy can bo construed into an obji'O- lion. There is ah occasion upoji which the prompter is an object of almost at much interest ns whop hu has Ins huok iu his hand , and the people on thn stiigo are listening for him. That is when he pouts a certain nuticj on thu call-boaid. Thu call-board is a species of bul letins like flm one mii-d to chalk ucortu on in old fashioned billiaid saloons. it is nuspcndcd in the gri-un room. On itJirejKiated thoealla tiMvhearsalH , the casia of pieces to bo'rfliear.iod , uid the wnokly notices that sa'aiiea will bo paid on such and such a day. Then ho is siitrouuded by an in terested group who ask him moro questions in a breath than ho could mswcr in an hour. Somu of the male mcmborn of the comptny try to bribe thu information out of his fav- ot ilo half und half. Uut ho takes nil ho gotfl and { jives up nothing , lie "eels bis ad vantage uud keeps it. In Tact , I never mot a prompter yet who did not consider hiniHt'lf a far more mporlnnt member of the company khan the leading man. "Ho may loom up big and showy , " says the prompter , "and raiio'cain uiiung the women , but whuru would 10 bo without moI , want to know ? fn a holtsir. . Yen , tir , and a mighty jadholc , too , ninny's the time , " The prompter's life i * as laborious aa it h useful.
