SUSPECTED MURDER NEAR PATERSON.

About midnight on Sunday night the body OF a
man was found lying beside the Erie railway track
near Hawthorne station, about two miles west of
Paterson. The body was dreadfully manged, and
the head, cut of below the mouth. was completely
severed and lay some feet OF. The body was
moved to the Hawthorne station, and yesterday
afternoon County Coroner Amiraux took 1t in
charge and removed it to Paterson to hold for
investigation. Yesterday morning man giving
his name as James Malone, and hafing from New
York, was found near the spot where the body
was discovered, cooking q side of mutton which
fitted exactly where such an article had been
stolen few hours previous from Robin
sons slaughter house, In Paterson. Malone was
arrested OF suspicion OF having been concerned
In the death OF the man whose body was found on
the track. He had IN his pockets lot or cur
rency sOme OF 1t old and torn, II stolen hastily
American silver watch. He denied having ever
seen the deceased, protests that he knows moth
ing about 1t and repndiates the charge even OF
stealing the meat. He was held, however MIR.
Hawthorne, station agent, says that two men were
put of freight train, near his depot, on Sunday
afternoon one resembled the deceased; the
other resembled Malone. The two quarrelled i'm
mediately on being put off the train and deceased
was Knocked down 6y the other Night coming on
the result was not noticed, and, indeed, no par
tcular attention was paid to it, as it was
thought only. to be ,unGns ,riGns drunken Zen
ceased was Knocked over on the tack, In front
Of the approaching train purposely by his
companion and thus killed Ihis idea was SUB
stantiated by the report that his pockets appeared
to be rined and furthermore, when locomotive
was backed up to bring the body down to the
Hawthorne depot man is said TO have been seen
in the moonlight running away from the body. The
man acting the suspicious part In all these in.
stances answers the description OF James Malone,
the man arrested, and the suspicious are so strong
against him that he Will be held to await the result
OF the Coroner's inquest, which will probably be
commenced to-day.
The body OF the deceased has not yet been def
nitely identified, although some idea exists that
he is Michael Clinton, Sterling miner who was
arralgned before the Paterson Recorder on Sun
dav morning for being drunk on Saturday evening.

A Suitable Home for tho Little

The newsboys are about having for their Home .
new building which promises to meet all the re.
quirements Of such an institution. TIL old Home
was Of incalculable value to these little messen-
gers, and oftentimes gave them shelter and pro-
lection when without its aid they would not have

ticulary recommends itself to public appreciation,
namely the encouragement given the newsboys to
cultivate economy by taking care OF their surplus
earnings which are held in trust for them by the
officers OF the Home. The little fellows, in many
instances save quite considerable sum in the
course OF a few years.
The new building is being erected on the site or
the old Shakespeare Hotel, at the intersection OF
Chambers, William and Duane streets. large
and well fitted gymnasium Will form one OF its most
prominent as well as useful features. Baths, lee

Musical and Dramatic Notes.

Edwin Booth appeared last night ut Boston and
Miss Nelson at Philadelphia.
Despite the nclemcnt weather good audience
greeted Mr.. and Mrs. Florence at the new Park
Theatre, Brooklyn, last night. The play was the
'Ticketoi-Leave Man." with the Florences In the
leading parts. The support was fair but there was
much room for Improvement.
After an absence OF i've years from the New
York stage Maggie Mitchell reappeared at Booths
Theatre last night as Fanchon, the Cricket Landry
was played by MIR. J. W. Collier and Didier by Mr..
Robert Pateman. There Is nothing III the whole
play that calls for criticism outside OF Fanchon, and
the best that be said OF 1t is that Miss Mitchell
drew large audience to witness 1t.
Mrs. Lander, after long absence from the
theatres OF New York and vicinity, reappeared last
evening, In her well-learned part of Queen Eliza
beth, at Mrs. Conways Brooklyn Theatre. Mrs
Lander's realization OF the character OF the
sMaiden Queenn called for no adverse criticism.
Only one thing takes from the enjoyment OF the
performance, and that Is the lamentable loss OF
vocal power which Is most evident when Mrs. Ian
der makes attempt to express extreme passion
Then her voice, which mas at other times muf-
ned and somewhat cultural sound, shrills unpleas-
antly But this Is only slight mar to her per.
formance, and it Is overcome by the excellence OF
the other attributes OF the actress. Mrs. Lander
was wen supported by Mr.. Roche, who played the
character OF the mutlnous Essex.

This was followed bv the reading OF the indict-
ment, to which the Marshal listened attentively
but without emotion.
General Riviere then submitted his report. It
reviews the plans of the campaign proposed by the
defendant, and gives a sketch OF the battle Of
Forbach, in which great is laid on Bazaine's
responsibility for the result because he neglected
to 60 to General Frossard's assistance. In regard
to Bazaine's conduct at Metz NJ. Rivlere takes the
ground that the Marshal was at no time really de-
sirous ofleavtng the place.
After hearing M. Riviere's report the Court ad.

PARIS. Oct. 9, 1873.
The court-martial before which Marshal Bazaine

the Grand Trianon at Versailles. The scene at the
opening to-day was remarkable. Nearly all the
witnesses who had been summoned were
present, and the court room was filed

sides those previously reported NM. Favre and
Regntere were in attendance. The calling of their
names as witnesses caused a sensation. Bazane

an armchair by the side of his counsel and was
courteously addressed by the President OF the
Court as "Monsieur lie Marchaln throughout the
