The NATHAN MURDERER The
murder Of Mr.. Nathan the wealthy Is
raehte in New York several months
since, which has been shrovded lin SO
much mystery, is it is said, in fair
way to be brought to light. The N Y
World states that Judge Cardoza, in
an interview with reporter, tells the
startling story that Col. Whitley, chief
of the U. s secret service, openly de-
clared that the murderer is known to
the detectives. and will be brought to
justice at an early date. In fact, No
avenue OF escape is open to him, except
self destruction. Superintendent Kel
80. by an evasive repy given to re-
porter, gave strong ground for belief
in the actual existence of such a state
of things, and, putting all the facts to-
gelher, and taking into consideration
the history and clues in the case a
complete chain of circumstances point
to the fact that helmurderer is known,
and his whereabouts ascertained.

QUEER lSTATIsTIcs.-The last re-
port of the State Prison Commissioner
sets forth some queer facts, and gives
rise to singular line of contemplation
which seems to overthrow several theo
ries heretofore supposed to be we'll found
ed. For instance it appears from the
: port that out of 100 convi cts received
into the Prison, from Oct. 1st 1869 to
Oct. 1st 1870, 25 were temperate, 81
moderate drinkers, and only s intern
rerate. Thus the temperate prisoners
beat the Incorporate more than three
to one. Then again, of 100 convicts.
IS could read and write in English,
Ii in other languages, 8 could read
but not write, and only I could neith-
er read nor write, the educated inmates
of the State Prison largely predomin
ating over the Ignorant class. The
religious bodies are more largely rep
resented than is generally supposed ;
the Methodist contributing 81; Catho
lies, rs; Lutherans, IA Congrega-
tionalists, IA !; Baptist, 10 /; Presby-
terians, I; Episcopalians, 4 Universe
lists and Mormons, l each, Unbelievers,
3 only. These fgu. Is would indicate
that 81 per cent, of the convicts have
had a 80 called religious education.

THE FALL OF PARIS.


The city Of Paris capitulated on the
18th Of January. After four months of
struggling, suffering and starving, the
Parisians patiently resisted the trium
plant Prussilns, until at last the city
had to pass under the yoke Of the con
queror. The, struggle has been dcs-
perate one, the sad and painful effects
of which have been felt almost equally
in 10th France and Germany The
whole civilized world must rejoice at
the near approach of a peace which we
trust will be lasting and enduring. 1t
is to be hoped that in one sense Of the
word, the result of the war will
be triumph for France, inasmuch-
as by ii she may have an oppor-
tunity of creating aad organizing a
system, of Govarnment. based on Re
