Two Men Killed by a Police man at an Early Hour This Morning. Both Sides of the Affair, The Oillcer Justifies Himself as Acting in Self-Dcfenso-lUs Statement or the Encounter. Versions of the Deadly Affair as Given by Eye witnesses. The mlpcry wrought by the demon alcohol Is every day increasing, and scarce an hour of the short space of time allotted to man passes, but some deed of degradation is committed. This morning we are called upon to record the sud den "taking oft" of two human beings, two un prepared houle, who had as yet but baroly en tered into the battle of life, and all through that bane of thousands liquor. At No. 11531 North Second street resides a family by the name of Walsh. One of their number, a ion named James, aged about twenty-three years, and a plasterer by trade, after returning from his daily labor yesterday, epent some time in cultivating a miniature gar den which he had formed in the small enclo sure, called a yard, In the roar of his parents' houi-e. lie continued working therein until it necame almost dark, when he entered the house, changed his clothing, and started out to obtain some little recreation. About the time that ho left home (7 o'clock') a young man named Alurtagh, aged twenty-two years, whose parents reside at No. 2000 North Fifth street, returned from Germantown, where he had spent the day in doing some laboiiug work. The young man Murtagh, at the ago of sixteen, enlisted in the 173d New York Kegi ment, nnder the alias of John Morrissey, he desiring to enter the army, and using an alias to prevent his removal therefrom by his father, who was opposed to his enlisting, lie served honorably through the war, and after being dis charged returned home. His parents state that he had not done much work since his return, but had just received employment in German town, and he and they were mutually joyous over the fact. After disposing of the meal prepared for him by his mother, he cleansed himself, and sallied out for some enjoyment. Where he went, or where he spent the even ing, is not now known; but he that as it may, the fact is patent that he met with Walsh, and both succeeded, as all parties admit, in becoming thoroughly intoxicated. Some time after mid night they brought up in the neighborhood of Third and Montgomery avenue, and by their noite and caroosings annoyed the whole neigh borhood. The locality is none of the best. It is the boundary between the Seventeenth and Nine teenth wards, and is infested by a gang of young men who are as desperate as they are devilish in their characters. Third street, at this point, is ocenpied by a number of Irish families of the lower class, who In their igno ronce screen instead of expose the misdoings of the youths that there congregate. They think that because they are all Demo crats that therefore Democratic policemen should not Interfere with them, and, as a conse quence, whenever the officers attempt to arrest any offender they meet with opposition, and ofttimes encounter danger. This "beat," too, 1b what is termed a double beat, extending from Oxford to Beach street, and from Second to Sixth street. For some time past it bos been In charge of Officers Patrick Levy and Charles Max, ef the Eleventh district farce, both of whom are said to be exem plary men. Last night Max was left in sole charge of the "beat," on account of the death of Levy's father in New York, and whither Levy , had gone. Abont a quarter of 1 o'clock this morning -Max heard a terrible rumpus whilst stand ing at the corner of Montgomery ave 'nue and Third street, and supposing it to come from Germantown road, he at once ran in that direction, lie soon found, however, that he was leaving the sound, and he returned, intending to cross over to American street. On passing Third street he looked down and saw two parties apparently squabbling. He ap proached them and In attempting to arrest one of them, a scuffle ensued which resulted In his drawing his revolver and shooting both. He did not at the time know cither of them, but they soon proved to be the two youngmen mentioned in our opening. After the shooting they were removed into the house of Edward McDermott, u whose pavement the affray occurred. Mur tagh died instantly, but Walsh lingered about an hour. The parents of the deceased being notified, the bodies were removed to their re spective residences. The following is Follcemnu Charles Max's Statement. On receiving the news of the tragedy, Chief Ivlulhollana, who whs at the Central Station, directed Lieutenant Pritchard to report imme diately in person. After consultation, Detective Gordon was sent to work up the case, and he repaired to the Eleventh District Station, "where he took a statement from Policeman Max, which was substantially as follows: lie was patrolling his beat alone, and at a quarter before 1 o'clock lie reached Tlilid and Oxford streets; he there heard a great noise as of people fighting; be ran towards Oermantowa road, thinking that tlietroublo was In that neighborhood, but the farther he went the farther the noise seemed te be; he then retraced his steps, and en again reaching Third street saw two men Just below Columbia avenue, facing each other; one ef them seemed to have a revolver la Ills hand pointing It at the other; at this tlaie a woman from overhead ex claimed, "It's about time jou got here to stop this business;" he replied, "Vou can't expect me to be here and la all parts "of inv beat at the same time," and approached the two men, whom be ordered away, telling tbem that this noise roiiHt be stopped; they still remained and said some thing to him ; he again ordered tbem away, and not complying, seized one and told him to eome with him ; the other then approached toward him and was told not to interfere; still pressing forward Max let go bis hold on the other one aud seized him; then his first prisoner showed a disposition to inter fere and he was warned away; he replied he wouldn't Interfere, bnt on arriving up Third street near Montgomery approached Max and strack him In the face aud then seized Max by the shirt collar which he twisted; Max was compelled to ra leime his bold of his prisoner, who ltntiedlatelv seized Max by the legs and he was throwu to the pavement; while lying there struggling vlth the men Max was kicked several times about thu boilr: lie Anally released himself, and on regaUiug his feet seized one of them by the coat and wis asala rushed upon, when he notified the other that if he dared again to approach him, he would shoot; he came towards him, when he drew his revolver and 11 red two shots; both of them fell to the Davement: Max then ran to Fourth aad Berks streets, where seeing a strange police man he railed to him to come down the street, as he had been compelled to shoot two men; Max and his brother policeman ran down to the scene and found tha two men roue : he reaulred of several people who bad their heads out of windows, which direc tion thft two men had irone. and receiver1, as an an swer, "One of them Is here ;" be applied for admis sion and was refused ; be then directed the police man to remain there wullo he could obtain the assis tance of other policemen ; on reaching Berks street he came acres Policeman Bird, whose beat ad joined that of Max ; they returned to the locality and were again refused admission ; Max than re ported to Lieutenant Pritehard at the station the particulars of the (Tray; be was directed to patrol the beat of Bird, whom he was to notify to hunt op the Bartlenlars; shortly afWr he relumed to the Station and delivered himself Into custody, stating that both of the men were dead ; he was then placed la custody, and la at present at the Eleventh Dis trict station. The Other Hide. As In all similar cases, there are two sides of the story to be told. This morning we visited the locality, and after some little search suc ceeded in finding Mrs. McDonongh, who refused to give any information. Whilst standing at the door of her residence a lad picked up a collar supposed to have belonged to the officer, which was much rumpled, and a piece of the handlo of a pair of nippers, thus showing that there had evidently been a severe struggle. We next visited the residence of Murtagh, and from his father obtained the following as the substance of a statement made by Edward McDonougb: I was awakened by a noise In the street, and rais ing the window I saw the oillcer trying to arrest Walsh. Murtagh told him (Walsh) to go with tin Ulcer, and advanced towards the latter. The officer shouted to Murtagh not to come near htm or no would shoot. Murtagh replied. "I am going to help Jou." 1 then shouted to tho oillcer not to shoot; If e was not able to tnfco his prisoner to spring his rattle. The oillcer replied, "I have no rattle." Just then the oillcer llred and Murtagh fell. Myself, wire, and daughter then rushed down stairs, and found that both men were shot. We then carried both into my house, and Walsh died In a short time. Just before the shot was fired I heard some one of the two say, "Yon needn't tako us; we are all Democrats like your self." 1 did not see either the oillcer or the de ceased on the ground at any. time. As is usual in such cases a bitter feeling exists to the prejudice of the officer, souse alleging that he should not have shot both, and others that he should not have shot either. The full facts of the case will be brought out at the Coroner's inquest, which will take place to morrow. Dr. Shaplelgh will make the post mortem examination to-day. The Wound. Both the young men were shot in the breast, one on the right side and the ether on the left. AMEKDMENTITIL'S. Additional Incidents ef the I'roees.lon Venter, dny A Colored I'rocfwulonlNt Defends Ilia Jtlglits A Democratic Ouiidrnpcd on tue IxMueo of the livur. There were several humorous incidents con ncctcd with tho procession of yesterday which have not yet been reported. One of these was an occurrence which took place yesterday aftor noon while a ward delegation was passing through an up-town neighborhood. A medium-sized colored man In the line was bearing a very beautiful Hag. A large-sized white spectator on the sidewalk laid his eyes upon the llag, and, either from a desire of pos session or from a wish to insult the bearer, laid bis hands upor. the national emblem, and under took to dispossess the rightful owner thereof. In this he was successful. Ho bore the flag away In triumph. But the former bearer was not perfectly satisfied with this proceeding. Seeing his property being made away with, he went immediately to the rescue. By his de termined spirit and hearty earnestness he re gained possession of his property without much difficulty, and then, by way of recompense for the annoyance, proceeded to administer a most royal beating to the offending white rascal. This duty being performed, the flag was once more shouldered and carried into the line, the avenger ef its injured honor conducting himself as though nothing unusual had happened, though the lookers-on testified their approval of his action by loud applause. While the procession was passing in the neighborhood of Fifth and Thompson streets, under the fire ef rotten eggs, docayed vegeta bles, etc., which they received at that point, an incident occurred which showed of what stuff the attacking mob was composed. When the fire was hottest, a line officer of the Excelsior Regiment, which was passing at the time, gave the order "Halt." This was quickly obeved. "Order arms." was the next command, which being complied with, that of "Fix bayonets" followed. The glistening ranKS ot bayonets, and the alacrity, precision, and coolness with which the orders had been obeyed, disheartened the crewd. who kept tbe remainder ef their rotten eggs in their pockets for their own pri vate ueneiit. mis portion oi tne line, it may be added, was allowed to go unmolested for the rest of the day. Another novel incident occurred in front of the Race Street Armory, as Post No. 27 of the urandArmyot the Kepubiic, mounted as aa artillery battery, was forming; in line for the precession. A horse, born and bred of Demo cratic antecedents, had been hired by one of the colored omcera of the post to be used in the parade. The officer had just mounted the ani mal ia the Armory building, ana botn maa and horse had juBt emerged into Race street, when the horse took it upon himself to settle one of the disputed questions of the day. Said the horse to himself, "I am a Democrat, a true-born Democrat. Mv rider is a true-born nigger. I am consequently superior to my rider, and it is a shame that he should ride me. The fact is he shall not ride me;" and so saying the animal put his two fore feet well forward aad together, kicked up his hind feet high in the air, and landed his rider on his face on the cobble stones, having caused him to describe a com plete revolution in his descent. The animal then canterca on in niga riee in tne direction oi a Democratic stable in the vicinity, his sides shaking with laughter and his tall wagging with glee at the practical joke. But here the Demo cratic superiority ended. A crewd of loyal ne groes stopped his progress, ana took mm up a side street to be remounted. The incorrigible Democrat was not willing, but he had to go. He resisted being mounted, spun round in quick revolutions, and caused the saddle to be entirely displaced; but it was of no avail. A crowd of sympathizers held his legs, neck, tail, and ears, and the officer regained his seat in safety. The offender was then marched off to his place in the line under a strong guard, who were very watchful for any symptoms of dissatisfaction, which, had they oc curred, would have been visited with summary punishment. Under these circumstances the animal submitted with the best grace possible, and became a type of the party to which he be longed as It is now situated. The only injury which the rider received was a black eye, which the fall had inflicted, but this slight inconve- 1 1 I I.. 1 i . . ? - . 5 i uienca no uuru wnu ucuuuimg iurwtuue, Know ing that it is what is to be expected by all who have any doings with the uuclean thing De mocracy. The good order which characterized the great demonstration yesterday over the fifteenth amendment finds an official and noticeable con firmation in the fact that out of more than two hundred persons who were arrested by the police during the day, bnt eighteen were co lored, a number below the daily average, and of these not one was in any way connected with tbe procession, all of there being denizens of the lower wards of the vagabond class who, in common with white people of like station, are picked up every gay y tne ponce. A Clerical Api-oixtmsnt. At a recent ses sion of the Methodist Conference, the Rev. T A. Fernley was appointed to take charge of the Eleventh Street M. E. Church, on Eleventh street, above Washington avenue. This reve rend gentleman is a most efficient and zealous clergyman, and his sphere of usefulness has been greatly enlarged by the change.

The Third Sshool Section of the Board, at their meeting last evening, by resolution condemned the present system of teaching music In the schools of that section, and dismissed the teachers.

Gregory, United 8tates Marshal, accompanied by Deputy Marshals Bernard, Bealo, Murray, and Kldgway, and Revenue Detectives Brooks, Clark, Griffith, Hause, Johnson, and Eldrldge, made a "forced march" on the Richmond wbhky district and succeeded in creating a general pnnic. J no uiucpra nnve "npuiti;u uvri.itiii pitman lor some time past, but owing to the extreme vigilance of the Hibernians, many of whom served an appren ticeship In the "Uiild Dart" at pulling the wool over the eyes of the "constabulary," thejr were several times foiled in attempted rains. This morning, however, they hit upon a novel Idea, and securing a wagon loaded with nay, tncy nt ouce carried ineir Intentions Into practice. Heeretlng themselves on the top of the wagon, and covering themselves with nay, the team was driven right into tne centre or the Milesian tamp, and before the now astonished sons of Erin could utter " 'Hdhust," the ofltcers were upon tin m. The men gave leg ball but the d aim ti ters of the "Otild Sort" stood their ground, and gave bottlo with tongues, hand, and feet. Stones rattled round the heads of the "scouting" party, and many a female raised a limb to Indict stera pnnlshraent. "Dish-cloths" and "pratle- mashers" were wielded lively by muscular femi ninity, and for a time the battle appeared to be In their' favor, but at length the ofllctrs rallied, and tho strong-minded and strong-winded Milesians were ovt retime, and operations began. The first place visited was a distillery on Mon mouth street, above Klchmond, the contents of which were seized. The "raiders" then visited tho sur rounding places, and as a result captured four stills and three worms, all new. Hixty hogsheads of mash which were found were destroyed, after which the oillcers returned with their booty to the city. Local Orrs and Ends.

A Speaking Dumb Man Richard Norris was in West Philadelphia yesterday seeking alms on the plea of being deaf and dumb. He Showed various letters to prove his unhappy condition, and had several papers with the amounts of donations upon them. Policeman JLelley, thinking him an impostor, concluded to arrest him, and going up to him, slapped him ia a friendly manner on the back, and saluted him with the words "Now I've got you!" The shock of the words and the slap together was 60 great that it immediately restored speech to the dumb man. who remarked in a hurried manner, "No, you haven't!" For thus answerwing back he was marched off by the policeman, and was com mitted by Alderman Randall. Assault ox an Offices. Lieutenant Fla herty, of the Fifth district, was standing last evening in front of Horticultural Hall, keeping the passage way open.

FOB BAIJi BY ALL DRUGGISTS and Dealers In MaaisiHi gTwywawt, i WswttpU WISHART'8 COLUMN. THE MEDICAL PRO PERTIES OF TAR. The pine tree has long been known to pos sess valuable medical properties. For pul monary diseases it is doubtful whether any remedy has as yet been discovered equal to it. It seems to change and renew the very struc ture on which it aots, and to infos into tho system an indescribable power equal to the natural power before disease had even taken s hold of the body, so as to make, as it were, an entirely new tissue, amd to give a newness of life and energy which one who has been siok a log time knows the value of but cannot fully describe. The great objection, however, to all tar preparation has been their unplea sant taste, and consequent liability t sickness and nauseate the stomach. We have before us, however, a preparation of the kind re ferred to, which obviates all these objections, and is as agreeable te the palate as it is valu able in the cure of disease. We mean "Dr. Wiuhart's Pine Tree Tar Cardial, " a real, genuine, bona fide medicinal cordial, distilled from the pine tree by a process known only to the Doctor himself, the sale and popularity of which are only equalled by the amount of1 suffering has relieved, and the number o! diseases it is so well calculated to effectually cure. In the Pine Tree Tar Cordial the in- valid may be sure he has a remedy of von extraordinary power for throat and lung affec. tions, and when taken in conjunction with the - i "Great American Dyspepsia Pills," an infallij ble cure for dyspepsia, liver complaint, siok headache, and the many ailments arising from a disordered state of the liver and digestive! organs. ' ' , ' In our sphere as publishers we feel some degree of cautiousness in what we recommend to onr readers, bnt when we know of any. thing ot value to the public we shall not hesi tate te make it known through onr columns! We advise those of our readers who are smffer lng from dyspepsia, eto., to give Dr. Wishart'fj celebrated remedies a trial.

Associated with him are three consulting phy sicians of acknowledged eminence, whose ser vices are given to the public free of charge. This opportunity is offered by no other in stitution in the country. Thousands of certificates of absolute cure (when all else failed U afford relief), as well as recommendatory letters without number, have been received by Dr. Wishart, the pro prietor, attesting the nniferm success with which they have been employed. Many of said letters are from the highest sources, in cluding eminent statesmen, Governors, State judges, clergymen, eto. men slow to be con vinced, prejudiced perhaps at first, bnt feel ing themselves nnder a sense of duty bonnd to tell the Doctor what they had done for them and to recommend them to others.
