PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 4.
High Constable Blaney reached home on Friday
last, having iii his charge the noted Limo Amelio
Epes Nina, charged with forgery and strongly
suspected of the murder of William Chapman, Of
AndaIusla A more impudent impostor, has, per-
haps, never appeared in any country. He had
contrived to introduce himself into some respccta
BILE families in Boston, and on the very day of his
arrest, had effected an arrangement with mcr-
chant for the advance of $4,000 on a forged letter
of credit While in custody at Boston, and o the
Journey here, his assurance deserted him
moment Before the Mayor of this city he persist
ing in affirming his high birth and pretens:ons, as
the son of a Mexican Grandcc. 1t was not until
five officers of our Pcntentary had recognized
him old acquaintance, recently DISCHARGED
from their care, that he acknowledged himself to
be CcIestinc Armentarius, convicted of larceny in
the Mayors Court on The 18th March, 1880, and
sentenced accordingly. 1t is probable that on the
very day of his discharge from prison he made his
first visit to ChaPman's house. and laid the foun-
daton of the extensive injury which has followed
that illstarred intimacy.-Chroniclc.

We had not time on last Thursday TO make any
comments on the of that day at Tree Hill for
the Jockey Club Purse. There was much diversity
of opinion respecting Collier and Sally Hornet
although the prevailing opinion seemed to be in
favor of Collier. Bets were "made both ways
Collier against the field, and Sally Hornet against
the field. Little confidence was placed in the other
horses.
In the first heat, the two first miles were run
very quick. Collier and Sally Hornet contendirg
for the track. The others apparently running to
save their distance. At the end of the second
mile, neither of the contending horses had much
in hand. Collier kept the track with Sally Hornet
close at his heels. The last half mile in the race
there contest, as Sally Hornet had no
chance for the heat, she held up. This ac-
counts for the apparent sInwness of the running,
the time reported being mss.
The second heat Collier took the lead and kept
it throughout. Sparrowhawk contended for the
heat the three first miles. On the fourth, Sally
Hornet took the lead of him and made the push
Collier by about two lengths, but it was very
evident that he not put up throughout the
heat. We learn he will be of the contending
for the great purse at Baltimore on the 26th
instant.

Gov. BRANcH.-Our distinguished fellow citizen
Gov. BRANCH, who arrived in this city on Monday
evening, on his way to Tennessee, has placed in our
| hands the following correspondence, which Will
correct important in the date off letter from
! him TO the President, which is introduced in Mai.
| iIaton'S Appeal, and upon which the latter gen
| teman has prcdlcatcd upwards of column OF bit
| ter and unwarrantabe abuse. His animudvcrsions
may be found in another column, embraced in that
portion of his appeal inserted in to-day's paper.
This letter, as it is quoted by Mai Eaton 1t will he
observed, is enormously dated the 59tll Jan. 1880
ftc0 d1YS subsequent to Col. .iohnsom's interview
with McSSrs. Branch, Berricn and ingham; and as
1t expresses warm friendship for the President,
Mayer r. upon the ground that the date is truly
given, very adroitly yields it with the degn OF in
voiving Mr.. Branch in a charge OF inconsistency
and hypocrisy. But the real date OF the letter,
2Iti January, will show that it written prior
to the interview with Col. Johnson-a fact which
ut once proves the tallacy of Mr.. Eatous prc.ui-
SEES, and Overthrows his whole argument.
But Gov Branch has Just cause to complain
that such unfair means have been used to wound
his reputation, first that of altering, the date OF
his letter, and, secondly, suPprcssing the balance
OF the correspondence which had ii been published,
would have prevented the in the date, and
placed the transactions to which 1t audcS IN their
proper light. 1t is. however, a fortunate circum-
stance for him that he has it iii his power so clear
ly to confutc the imputatons thus Wronulully
sought to be cast upon him.
Why Maj. Eaton has pursued this course is left
to the public to Judge. We have no motive or de-
sire 10 inlure hair of his head; nut Law this
correspondence, with these explanations, before cur
readers, act of sheer Justice TO the gentleman
assailed in his address.
