_ 'From the Pennsylvanian qf Friday last:
Horrible Murder in Philadelphia.
Yesterday, morning about two o'clock, the most
,T horrible r f9ui; and bloody murder ever conceived
‘of, was perpetrated in the very heart of our city,
at-No. 39 North Fourth street,.above Arch, East
side, in the vicinity of Zion Lutheran Church. The
house is occupied by a bookseller and druggist,
named C. L. Rademacher, agent for the Leipsic
: manufactory of Homeopathic medicines, who has
tire store in front. The third story of the house is
occupied by August Koellner, lithographer, whose
place of business is at No. 76 Walnut street
The adjoining house, No. 37, is occupied by a
Mr. Shade, whose family was first alarmed by
dreadful screams, struggling and stamping, which
proceeded from the room in which Mr. Rademacher
and wife slept.
A few minutes after the groans aroused from
their slumbers, Mr. Koellner and wife, the former
of whom dressed himself and proceeded to Mr,
R's chamber and found that the door was fas*
tened' on the inside, and while he. was in the
act of forcing'it open with an axej.it was open
ed by Mr. R.. who fell into Mr. K's arms, cov
vered with blood from head to foot, and appeared
at the time to be laboring under partial insanity.
He informed Mr. K. of all that had taken place.
He said that a man with pistol in hand had forcibly
•entered the room while he and his wife were asleep
and attempted to shoot, him, and.that the pistol
•would not go off He was under the impression,
ihat there were two persons in the room, one of
-Whom attacked him, and the other his wife, that
ihc would not know them again because there was
{no light m the room, and they did not speak a
vvsnd. - The wife of Mr. K. came into the room a
short time after her husband, and heard this story of
Mr. R.,. She says that there was a light in the
room, and' that when she entered she found Mrs.
Radamacher lying "upon the floor, about two feet
from the foot of the bed. with her head east and
her feet toward the door of the room. The vital
spark ha'd fled, hut the body was yet warm, though
covered with blood. As represented by Mrs. K.,
the scene was indeed, most horrible for mortal eyes
.to gaze upon. (It is proper here-to state, that Mr.
Radamacher never retired to his'bed in the even
ing without locking his room door on the inside.)
Mrs. Radamacher received three stabs, one in the
arm and two that penetrated the left lung-of the
breast. These wounds appear to have been inflict
ed with a sharp instrument. Mr. R. was also
severely wounded in several places on the arm and
head, and is now in a very critical situation. In
the room a knife, said to be a common shoemaker's
knife, covered with bloodv was lound in one corner;
various places about the room, to wit, the jam.
window sill, shutters, curtains. &c.. exhibited mg.rks
of blood, as if done by the hand, which leads us to
presume that the midnight assassin made his es
cape put of the back way. No blood was dis
covered on any part of the shed or yard fences.
The rain poured down in torrents during the night,
and, it-is supposed, washed away the blood, if any,
that might have been left; on the fence leading to
' the Fourth street alley, through which the villain
doubtless escaped. Mr. Jacob Frank, who occu
pies the adjoining dwelling, No. 3ft. states that he
retumedhome at a.late hour in the night, and saw
a man in the alley mentioned, who tried to avoid
him; This man is supposed to be the murderer;
if so, we sincerely trust that justice will speedily
reach him. Mr. F. on hearing shrieks anti cries
of “Murder, ampler!" proceeded to the'fatal cham
ber of death, and there beheld the horrible sight,
The murder ihmbtle** was committed whilst the
demised and her husband were asleep. -
What punishment is due to such a heartless vih
lain, wlio would perpetrate an net so damning?

hi* command, •mimint'ii at the lioumj of dea h all
night and duy, mul bad considerable diflitudjy in
keeping the crowd from entering the premiss, so
great was the excitement kept up all yester
day. ‘Hundreds collected about the- place yesterday,
having been brought there by Madame Runnjr. A
post mortem examination of the hodv was iniadc
by Coroner Lcidy, assisted bv several pliysipiuns.
which occupied the entire day. No new tiictsjwere
: elicited. We give; all the facts in this report]
• The deceased was about twenty-three live
years, of age, .and was carttitie. Her father. Mr.
Godfrey Sheek, keeps a confectionary establish
ment-on the north side of Arch street, belowj 7th.
The family is very respectable. '
We have heard all sorts of rumors relative to
this deep tragedy, but ,dn not deem it prudejit at
this time to lay them before our readers, jl'ime
will determine and disclose to the world the name
of the real murderer, who, we are informed, is 1 now
in the city. Mr. Franks, we understand, can re
cognise the person whom he saw coming out of
the alley as he was entering. If so. -‘all’s vvell."
Curious, and, perhaps, ill-founded rumors have
reached our ears. In'fact, the whole affair is
wrapped in a deep mystery. At all events, the
matter is undergoing a legal investigation, which
may lead to the arrest of the midnight assassin.
The Muuiierku Atirestku.—lnnocent blood
cries aloud to Heaven. Such crime mu-t out. The
avenger was upon the heels of the assassin. ; In
the afternoon the Murderer was taken. The
burglar, Charles Langfeldt—to whom suspicion- so
strongly pointed, is the prisoner. The police, were
upon his track, and officer William Russell, the
shrewd, sagacious and indefatigable special consta
ble of the criminal department of the citv’poiiei'.
was the luckyman to put Ills-hand upon rim shoul
der of the perpetrator of the minder, and to bring
to light evidence which can leave not the shadow
of a doubt that the guilty has been brought to jus
tice, and that the poor atonement which the lorieit
of the life of the criminal can give for such a mon
strous act of villainy, will be speedily made. !
•Langfeldt, whose history we gave at the time of
his arrest in this city, about four years ago. is a native
of Germany. From Germany he went to Franck
From France he cafrie to New Orleans ; from New
Orleans to Philadelphia. lie was a convict ih
Europe, ansi arrived in this country thus stigma
tized. HLs subsequent conduct proved him to bfe
a hardened villain. Soon after his arrival in Philt
adelphia,_ and while working tor Air. Cassell.
shoemaker, who then lived in the house now oceiq
pied by Air. Rademacher., he robbed, the Zionj
Church. When arrested, he hail a vest made ouq
of the velvet torn from the pulpit of the sacred!
edifice! He also robbed the hardware store ofj
Jesse Ogden, corner of Fourth and Race streets— j
was conVicicd of both robberies.’ On the ifth of.
March, 18-11. was sentenced to the penitentiary lor
three years for the first crime, and lor one year for
second. On the 7th of the present month lie was i
enlarged from prison.
About a week since lie took up his quarters at
the shoemakers' boarding-house of Airs. Martin, in
Front street, below Vine. It was here, working j
at his bench, that he was arrested. And now to
the proof against him. It is a chain of circum
stantial evidence, complete in every link, and strong
as adamant. The bloody knife found in Air. Radc
miicher's chamber has been identified by the fellow
workmen of the prisoner as having belonged to his
kit. Langfeldt was at the place of Mr. Watt,
cordwainer, in the Northern Liberties, on the after
noon previous to the murder. Air. Watt, when he
was gone, missed a knife which he suspected his
visitor of stealing. This knife is still missing.
All the physicians who examined the body of Airs.
Radcmacker as well as the person of Air. Rade
macker, agree that the wounds must have been in
flicted by two knives—one sharp—the other blunt.
The missing knife was sharp; the discovered knife
is blunt.
The murder was committed about two o'clock.
Air. Frank saw the man in the alley at half-past
one. Langfeldt was absent from his boarding house
after midnight, the same night. That morning at
three o'clock, he came home, got a basin of water,
took it up stairs and washed' portions of his panta
loons. His coat has had blood washed from it.
His boots have blood on them. The pockets of
his pantaloons were cut out by the police, ami in
them are marks of his bloody fingers. The waist
bands of his pants are bloody; so are the bottoms.
. He'had on his shirt, with the back part front, and
the bosom behind. The bosom was bloodv.—
Other articles of clothes found in his chest were
bloody.
The witnesses upon whose testimony he was
all reside in the neighborhood of the
Zion Chnrch—some in the identical house. This
house he was weil acquainted with. Since he
came out of prison he had threatened revenge. The
house doubtless haunted his wicked mind. Impel
led by the desperation of the semi-brute or semi-;
devil (courage, it was not.) he played the part of an!
incarnate fiend, and wreaked his vengeance. ;
The strongest pity and regret is felt for the un
fortunate lady, Airs. Rademacher. Young—beauti
ful—sprightly—happy—and to be doomed to such 1
a fate! The deepest sympathy, too, is felt for Air.
' and Airs. Shcek, the father and mother of the del
ceased. * It is the third domestic affliction they have
been called on to pass through within a very few
years. Only two or three years ago another daugh
ter died from the injuries sustained by beingfhrowh
out of a vehicle. ' r \
Langfeldt is about 35 years of age ; about five
feet six inches in height; light complexion, with a;
sort of old-youngish appearance. The expression
of his countenance is that'.of the hall' idiot and
desperate villian combined. i
The Prisoner Charles Lasgfeldt. On Sat-!
urday. morning about 1U o'clock, Charles Langfeldt
was conducted into the Court of Quarter
for a public hearing. The. prisoner -was brought
in irons from the City watch-house in Cherry street!
near s'th, where he had been confined during the
night under the especial custody of Captain Loud-
enslager, and was at first taken into the Mayor's
office, but in consequence of the momentary in
crease of numbers to the crowd, "and tS$ excitement
which prevailed throughout the assemblage, it was
deemed advisable and prudent to remove him to
the building in which the Criminal Court sits.—
Public indignation being aroused to a fearful pitch
against* the prisoner, a strong police force was
brought into requisition to take him from'one build
ing 'to the other. As soon as he bad been safely
placed in the dock, and the' officers of the Common
wealth, Counsel for the prisoner, the witnesses, and
others interested in the case had entered the court
room, the; doors were closed -and none allowed to
enter. Langfeldt stood up in the dock, a part of
the time leaning upon its railing in fronts He ap
peared for the most part quite self-composed, but
to a keen observer, there might be noticed ‘for very
short intervals a slight tremulousness •of manner,
and a quick and stolen glance about him, betraying
fear, probably more from the exhibition of excite
ment without the court house, than from the position
in which the presumption of guilt which several
present had been summoned as witnesses to sub
stantiate by oath or affirmation, had placed him.
About half-past ten o'clock the Mayor of the
city entered the court room, and took his seat upon
the bench. After a few moments occupied in
making preliminary arrangements for the hearing
he intimated that he was ready to proceed with the
investigation. Beniamin Champneys, Esq., Attor
ney General, stated That he thought it would be
better to postpone the hearing of the case until
Alonday. Mayor Swift addressed Richard Vaux.
Esq., who appeared by desire of Langfeldt his
counsel; he recapitulated the request of the'Attor
ney General, which he approved of, and suggested
that the hearing should take place on Monday morn
ing. Air. Vaux made no objection,
The prisoner was then taken back to the city
police office by a body of municipal officers and
placed in close confinement in one of the cells.—
Soon afterwards, the officers, by bringing the prison
van on Fifth street, opposite the office door, attracu
ted the greater portion of the crowd to that point.;
This ruse succeeded, for in the mean time the
prisoner was conducted from the western side into
Independence Square and being placed in a cab, was
conveyed to Aloyamensing prison.
The watchman of the beat in which the resi
dence of Rademacher is. says that, a few evenings
before the murder, he saw Langfeldt standing at
or near the corner of Cherry street and Fourth, at
a lamp, apparently reading a paper. lie then took
notice of a very large sc;ir upon his hand, by which
he now particularly recognizes him. Langfeldt is
scarred in several places on his body and limbs,
some ol which indicate, very severe and deep
wounds.
Air. Rademacher.—The condition of this gen
tleman, we are gratified to know, is continually im
proving. Yesterday his physicians considered him
entirely out of danger of tetanus, which was
threatened by the severe wound'upon his arm.
His recollection of the affair of Thursday morning
i.s beginning to rovive, and yesterday he gave to a
friend some facts relating to the horrid scene.
We were informed that he states he was awakened
by the screaming of Airs. R.; has some remem
brance of being struck, and of somebody running
a hand through the hair of his head. He says also
that he saw a man quit the room through the
window. ’
