TIIE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPII PIIILADELPITiA, MONDAY, AUGUST 8, 1870. TITE SATIUS MURDER. The Qnettloa of tht Otea nr-Wbt a News bay Maw. The New York 2ot of Saturday evening ears: No trace of the murderer of Mr. Nathan has yet been found, and It seems thnt a respectable portion of the community hare little else to do but to circulate sensational reports of arrests and fresh evidence. YA.LSE REPORTS. It wa3 reported yesterday afternoon that four persons were under arrest at Police headquarters under suspicion. There was no truth whatever in the story. This morning an equally absurd report was In circulation. The gossips had It thnt two prison ers had been taken last night to the Tombs, upon whom were found the watch and diamond studs of the murdered Mr. Nathan. The report originated in the fact that two sneak thieves were brought in last evening by detectives, charged with puepiclously entering a house. They were confined in cells, and subsequently ordered up stairs by Captain Kelso for examina tion. He requested the detectives to bring tho men into a private room, and a sensational re porter, who chanced to be on the spot, took the responsibility of circulating a statement that Mr. Nathan's murderers had been arrested. WHAT A NEWSBOr SAW. Eight hucdred dollars reward has been ottered for the identification of a man who, on the moraine of the murder of Mr. Nathan, was seen to pick up a piece of paper that was lying on the top front doorstep of the house in Twenty third street. This Is Is a new phase of the case, and involve? a curious and important piece of evidence. The ftej leading np to the front door of Mr. Nathan's house are sheltered from the rain by a portico, or projecting roof, which affords an excellent opportunity to newsboys of folding their papers on wet mornings. One newsboy has long been in the habit of using the steps for this purpose, and on the mornlngof the murder, which was. as will be remenihercd, very wet, he reached the house about 5 o'clock, and found the front door open. Thinking that the ser vants were up early, and were ffointc to clean ihe entrance, he went to the next houso, and folded his papers there. While he was occu pied la this manner he saw ft man, in a laboring dress, aj-proachlng with a dinner pail In his hand. This man paused when in front of Mr. Nathan's house, and then ascended the steps, to pick up a large piece of white paper, which was lying upon the top one. Having secured this he went on his way. A trilling incident of this kind attracted the boy's notice but little of the time, but assumed an aspect of importance when he heard tho details of the murder an hour or tvo later. He at once went to the police and told his tale, whereupon a thorough search for the strange man was begun by the detectives. Hitherto they have not succeeded in finding him. and it is supposed that he has either obtained possession of some paper of value, which he is unwilline to part with, or has not yet associated the finding of it with the tiouse in which tho murder was committed, or that he has forgotten all about it. ' V If this story be true, and there is no reason to loubt that it Is so, it is clear that the door of ttie house was open, lu spite of the evidence of Wrolmun Mangum to the contrary. Young Ir. Nathan. General Frank P. Blair, and the twsboy all concur in this Important detail, ad Superintendent Jourdan himself did not idhc time credit the testimony of the ollk-cr. POLITICAL FESTIVITY. 'nolin nnrt Ntnbbfng Aflray In Tenneine. 'despatch giving the particulars of the difli uV between the Freemans at Brownsville, on 'uay, was sent to the Avalanche as early as 4 o'ock in the afternoon per the Southern aqc and Atlantic line, but lor some reason wasot transmitted, or at least has not yet come to hid. 1 his is in answer to our correspon dent at Brownsville, who Inquires, per the Wesrn Union lino, why this telegram did not appet in yesterday's Avalanche. The particu lars cthe alfalr, as cleaned ironi other sources, are asollows: A. L Freeman Is a candidate for Circuit .ludgea Hivywood county, aud .1. H. Freeman is a nver in Brownsville, mo lawyer is oppose to the caudidate, and published an art! ele in.be Brownsville paper reflecting upon nini aierelv. a long correspondence tooic plate biuee n the parties upon the matter of the trtie. which the lawyer refused to with draw onj auv way qualify. It was expected that a ucouiro would taKe place between them, al it did on Tuesday evening. The canUiiatwas sitting in the Court square at four o'clock o,tue evening in question, and the law yer was i ting in front of Yancy Wilder's storehouse opposite. This was considered the favoralle your. The candidate started in the direction the lawyer, who immediately stood to be reac tor hobtilo demonstration. When the partle vere about twenty yards apart, both having pisls drawn, tho firing commenced. When seve shots had been fired the lawyer auid his irovas run dr'. The candidate then threw asldtlils pistol, which contained oue more shr-t i The lawyer at once drew a bowle,. or tber 6ort of long knife, and advanced ua the candidate out in the middle of t street and made a pass at him, which uk some effect in the hand. The fight beiutr r.fier unequal at this time, parties friendly to U sides interfered and the combat ceased. The (suits In the matter of blood were a shot ia tbeleft arm of the lawyer and the a foremen tioiie cut in the hand of the candidate. Nothing freih d been developed up to twelve last night. The words "vndidate" and "lawyer" in the above account ae used to more clearly Indicate the parties tnd o avoid the bewildering use of the name Ficman. Mnnphi Avabmchc, Avq. 4. CAS OF MAYHEM. WloKeld lJernrm (Smith Cropped for 4'ouilas ioBSlssIonal Conlet Bully the Hoy With nfln I r A vivacious Meiphis reporter gives the fol twing account othe Mayhem in High Life re ported by telegrap. He Is also responsible for be above etartllniJheud lines: WinfieUl Jertualm Las made his dtbut as a pugilist in Meuipls, after his return from a stormv time in Ungress. It happened in a manner and form ts follows: Wlufield Jeru salem was saunterl?r along Main on yesterday after midday, obseving how the suffragans were exercisiug taejrlvilege of the franchise, when be uuhappily til in with Blewla and John W. Smith, loruier'.y lenator from hereabouts to our State Legislature in close confab. Winfield Jerusalem joined in.aud after a bit he took oc casion to remark to lohn W. Smith, "Is it not atrange, Mr. Smith, hat the Democratic papers will persevere in chafing that 1 voted for the Loyal Indemnity bill ? "Well," remarked John W., "I guess you voted for It. It is so. "It is not to," said Mjoiield Jerusalem. "The papers lie. tmd whoever savs mat I did vote for it Is a liar." "I sar sc," replied Jdm W. "Then," said Wlnflelf, "vou are a liar." "If you call me a ILr," said John V., "I'll emack vou lu the snoot" "Don't call me a liar," retorted Winfield, and be at once "In In'' upon the proboscis of John W. with hi let bunch. Of course a scuttle emned, In the course of which some cm or eome:hing tripped up John V., but as he fdl he pullud Jerusalem with him, and in the coune of proceedings on the ground the auricle dextir of WiuiielJ uot between the molars of John V., which some accident, coin ' pressed at the inunent so as to take off the end iheiec-f. The ehuiff, very luckily, happened oround at the tine, and commanded peace. When Wiiitinld gt free, he picked up his dis membered i:r audweut to a doctor to have it glued on.

A Hcer la n Indn Tfctr N. la Ilobaken Am Katpir at MUtb. After the affair at Boulogne, with Its supremely ridiculous termination, if not Inception, Napo leon returned to London, and, Instead of hiding himself away until the atorm of laughter had blown off, showed himself with the utmost un concern at all his old haunts. Within a few days even he had the audacity to show himself in public at the theatre, and at the very theatre the Princess where some members of Louis Philippe's family were in attendance to witness Ikr FretnhvtM. in company with the Queen of Kngland. Louis' appearance In the theatre, where he was well known, was the signal for . a giggle which soon broke out into loud and uncontrollable lauuhter. Nothing daunted, he marched up tho middle aisle with as much dignity and composure as if the admired of all admirers, and took a reserved scat directly opposite the box containing the royal party, Frenc h and English. Now, by a cool stroke of Louis' policy this seat bad been taken in advance with a full know ledge of the probable events of the evening his late fiasco getting him lantrhed at, and the Orleans at the theatre joining in it, if he should come there. Louis took his seat, the observed of all observers, if not the admired of all admi rers, and in such a place was his seat reserved as gave the audience from pit to gallery the best opportunities for observation. The laughter subsided, and the music we nt on. After a while the laughter was renewed, if not so loudly, at least as unmistakably as when our hero first put in an appearance. And this time the tables were turned, and the faccB in the royal box were flushed with an noyance. There, directly in front of them, as immovable as stone, sat the "nephew of his uncle," his jaw at just tuch an angle as gave them and the audience every opportunity for noticing Its solidity and the luxuriant mous tache, finely waxed, that waved down from his upper lip; and, in virtue of the place he had selected, it was impossible for any of the royal party to look from their box on to the stage without having their vi.-lon embrace the spec tacle of the Napoleonic jaw iu all Its massive ness, surmounted by the Napoleonic nose. Du ring tho entire performance of the opera that jaw never moved from its position or expres sion, and so odd did it look in its immovability that by degrees it began to excite more laughter than Weber's music inspired attention; and the audience, glancing from the jaw to the royal party, made it so unpleasant that they left the theatre completely discomfitted. The story spread through London, and almost made people forget the eagle of the Boulogne expedition that failed to operate according to expectations, and the other ludicrous incidents of that most short and disastrous campaign. When in New York one of his favorite resorts was a tavern well known to the pleasure-loving Jlobokenese, since called "LTIotel Napoleon." J t was kept at tho time bv a Frenchman, and was a favorite resort of the small French colony in the town. AN EMPIRE AT STAKE. One evening they were all playing piquet, and drinking quite freely. At last the company, among whom Bonaparte's opinions were well known, and by some not a little ridiculed, besran discussing politics. The talk ran high. At last one more excited than the rest wagered heavily the wager to be decided by a game of cards "that a Bonaparte never would ascend tne tnrone of France." 'Qualify it by saying, Be at the head of the French nation, and I'll take you," said Louis. "I'll take the wager as you put it first," said a friend of the Emperor. He won it, and to-day the winner occupies one of the most lucrative inferior posi tions in the Imperial gift in the Depart ment of the Khine. "And now 1 wager you all the money 1 have, said Napoleon, when tne bet was won, "that I will be, before I die, at the head of the French nation as the champion of democracy, and that I will give the right construction in the intere.-t of humanity and civilization to my uncle's prophecy of 1821, at St. Helena 'In sixty years Europe will be re publican or Cossack. " "What do you mean by right construction t asked one. "You have to take my wager as I offered It," responded Louis. Here there was some wrangling, and at length he explained that bv "the right construction" he meant "republican." The wager was taken for a small amount, lost, won the second time, lost the third time, won. won, and won four game of piquet out of six. everything in tiie way ok Summer C'i.othinw now to be closki) oct at Guaranteed Lower Pricks THAN El.HEWllEKK.
