A 3 tattling minor comes to ns by telegraph
this morning, concerning the Nathans mur
derer—that mystery that has baffled the de
tective force of the world. The “cracksman”
in San Francisco who says that he was an
accomplice in the mnrder that was suggested
by Nathans’ son, strikes a theory not at all
new to the thinking men of New York.
Washington Nathans has bem looked upon
with suspicion ever since the night of the
mnrder. We trust the matter may now be
cleared np.
The Kx-Carietft Convention.
The ex-Cadets of the Georgia Military Institute are
notified that a book for registering their name* as
members of the ex-Cadet Convention, which meets
on Mond-y in this city, is deposited at Mayor Ham-
mack’s office, with ex-Cadeft Joe Bridges. Every
Cadet registering his name will be furnished with a
badge. The object of this arrangement is to enable
the Secretary, H. A. Dnnwoody, to make as nearly as
possible s correct list of the members of the Conven
tion before it convenes, as well ss to enable Cadets
who are strangers to each other lo recognize each
other as such. The Convention will convene at 12 m.
on Mondsy, at the Capitol. On Tussday Gov. Smith
and other distinguished speakers will address them,
and on Tuesday night a ball will be given to the Con
vection at the Kimball House.

The report of the Wawasaett Steamboat Commission
is in the hands of the Secretary of the Treasury;
though not yet officially promulgated it Is understood
that the first recommendation is the prosecution of
the Potomac Ferry Company for employing] In their
service a captain and mate known to them to be un
licensed officers and in violation of the existing rules
governing the steamboat service of the United States.
It also condemned them for allowing either the
officers or crew of Wawassett to engage aa hucksters in
traffic of melons, fruits, vegetables, etc., the products
of the Virginia and Maryland shores. Second, the
prosecution of Captain Woods and the mate, Mr.
Garrett, for accepting and serving in their respective
positions, in violation of the steamboat law, hold that
Ignorance in this esse is no excuse.
It is understood that the report recommends the re
vocation of the license of the engineer, for engaging
in business as a trader and for his failing to apply
such means as were at his command to check the
conrae of the fire.
The officers are alto condemned for not making
n attempt to distribute the life preservers and lower
the metallic life boat; also, for failing to have a fire
organization. The Cgjnmisslon will report that in
their opinion the origin of the fire is shrouded in
mystery.

THE NATHAN MURDER.
Startling Report from,
Frisco.
A Probable Solution of the Great Mystery—
An Old Sinner Confesses—Nathan’s
Son an Accomplice.
8an Francisco, August 29, 1873.
A man 'named Irving is in jail Jhere. In confessing
bis complicity in the murder of Mr. Nathan In New
York, he thinks the name of his confederate was Me
NalJy. The honseheeper’s son got them to do the
murder at the suggestion of Washington Nathan. The
basement door was left open. Irving and his oompan
ion remained in the dark some time, and when the
man came down who said “I have finished the old
man,” they then went np stairs. Irving says that be
has in his house in New York some stocks and a mem-
o ram dam book partly written in Hebrew, which he
took from the old man. He saya he got between six
and seven thousand dollars. Irving gives graphic de
tails. The committee of Surgeons could not determ
ine bis sanity. He came here as a sailor on a British
ship.
A Doubt Thrown over the Story.
New York, August 29, 1873.
It is ascertained that John F. Irving, who has been
arrested iu Ssn Francisco, on his own confession, ss
an accomplice in the murder of Benjamin Nathan, is
well known in New York as a thief and burglar. His
story is probably false and Invented as a means cf
procuring a free return here.
Further Rumors about the Confessing—
Rough Doubts Thrown Over His Story.
Nxw York, August 29, 1873.
The Nathan murder was committed July 29, 1871
John F. Irving was arrested the following day in.
Hoboken, where he waa concealed, the charge against
him being burglary and robber;.
Later.—It turns out that Trying, who waa arrested
in Hoboken, was a year previous tc the Nathan mur
der. The police believe be was in the State prison in
July, 1871.
LATEST.
All advises indicate that Irving, who confesses im
plication in the Nathan mnrder, is a fraud. Judge
Cardozo, who took an active part in endeavoring to
find the murderer of Nathan, says there is no doubt
but thst the real murderer is Forrester, who is now in
prison, and that In time be will be able to prove
Forrester to be guilty of that atrocity. Cardoza says
Irving’s story is a bungled affair, from beginning to
the end.

exists here that the reported massacre may be tree.
WESTEKNCROPS.
The Chicago Tribune’s Ciop-Letters Show
Corn Crop Way Below Average—
An Injurious Drought
Cbicaoo, August 29, 1873.
The Tribune has crop reports from about forty
ooentte* In Illinois, embracing the greater part of corn
(rowing part of State and from two counties different
parts of Iowa, with the exception of half the counties
in Illinois, all put the corn crop at only from one-half
to two-thirds average yield, though in souio localities
where the yield will be short, there is a greater acreage
planted than nsnal.
Reports from Iowa are very similar to those in Illin
ois. Drongbt has injured corn very materially and
the season so far advanced that rain now would
hardly benefit it
Carelessness.—Night before last a man was driving
a baggy rapidly down Markham street, and when near
the oroesing of the railroad, horse, buggy and all
plunged Into a ditch. The fall came near killing the
hone, and hurt the man very severely. The cause of
this was, that workmen had been removing the plank
crossing, and a/tor getting U all torn np and piled to
ooe side, they went off and left the place exposed. No
obstructions were placed in the way or other warning
given. This would be a very good matter for the po-
Hee in that quarter to investigate.

The Thunderor on the Iron Question—Hit
the Strikers a lick—A Compliment to
the United States—Loss of
an English Ship.
London, August 29, 1873.
The Times of this morning has an editorial on the
iron question, the burthen of which is that one of the
finest markets England ever possessed by the trade in
iron is being gradually closed to her. Her disasters
In this direction are mot ended. The United States is
competing successfully for the control of the iron
traffic with Canada, Booth America and the West
Indies, and they have contested under immense nat
ural disadvantages. Bat they have beaten England in
■pita of these. She cannot afford to idle and sleep
away her time, and waste her money while oompetiug
with tbiifty, active and Intelligent nations. The
Times thinks that much of the blame for this state of
things bliould fall upon the strikers and trades anions.

Tlse Markets.
But little cotton has as yet arrived. The highest
grade commands seventeen cents, and is dull at that.
There is lomo demand for bagging and ties. Best
brands bagging eighteen, sccoud grade seventeen,
third sixteen cents. But little animation throughout
the market at large.
Ties vs. Hope.
The Western people are agaiu endeavoring to intro
duce rope in the market, iron ties having completely
run it out two or three years ago. But we witnessed
a test the other afternoon, which was made between
them, in which the rope came out second best. A
bundle of six ties and sixty-six feet of rope, each the
quantity required in packing a bale of cotton, were
placed upon the scales. The ties weighed 11NA lbs.
the rope7,'*. The fact that rope is two cents cheaper
somewhat weakens the test, but still the ties has the
best of it. When on the bales of course each are sold
as so much cotton. The rope men are endeavoring to
make cotton buyers pay less for the article bound in
ties. But when bound in rope insurance is greater.

We had the pleasure of meeting Maior G. I. lhoiuas

riages and buggies, it is a real and popular lustitutiou
in the city.
The Lecture Thursday Night.
ENLARGED LIBERALITY.
A large and appreciative audience greeted Bishop
3ross at his lecture Thursday night.
Some curiosity was shown during the day at tho
subject chosen by him, as he hal kept it a profound
secret from all bat three or femr of the most promi
nent members. *
But after the congregation had assembled, he, with
some preliminary Temarks on education and the main
reason of the superiority of Rome over the whole
world in the arts and sciences, broached the grand
■abject of a college for the education of the young
men for the priesthood, but one that should be open
to all, Catholic and Protestant, alike. He ^deprecated
tho scarcity and want of priests to farther the work,
there being but seven actively employed in Georgia
now, and he was compelled to scud all over the world
almost to fill the churches.
After the conclusion of his remarks, subscribers
came forward, and tbo sum of fourteen hundred dol
lars ($1,400) was iu a very moments promised. All,
young and old, male and female, vieing with each
other in their eageruesB to sign their names. The
Reverend Bishop started the subscribtion with the
of $2,000, which was a present from friends in
the city of Boston, given on his starting for the South,
but notwithstanding this, given cheerfully Tor the
good work; besides two hundred acres which he owns
in a pleasant and healthy locality near tho line of one
of the main railroads.
This work should receive the commendation of all
classes. It will be open to all- benefit all—therefore
we hope well for it, and bid tho Bishop God-speed in
his work.
Tne Bishop started for Augusta this morning, where
he will have confirmation next Sunday.
The Mclancholly Story of Benner's Bear.
Historic truth,” says the latest Napoleon. ** is no
Ibbb sacred than secret, requiring lapse of time to re
cord in virgin purity” and if the true story of Benner’s
bear and Huff’s horse has not before appeared it goes
to prove the proverbial laziness of that hapless Indi
vidual “ the future historian,”
After reading over the *worn testimony and authen
ticated mcordo (?) of all the facts in the case. The fol
lowing is given as the true and melancholy story:
Chapter I.—By Josh Billings.—Diagnosis of a
Bear.—Tho Bare i^an animal ot 2 kinds. In hot
wether he fales to sleep, in konsequonce of tho exces
sive heto. He’s theu known tu be the scalawag bar.
running round, seeking whom he may devour, laying
stores for his winter .Vs, In winter he
lies down like the scalawag or a carpetbagger, and
when an officer is bunting him, makes out that he has
nothing but a paw to live upon, but search his case
and you’ll find mour’n that. You’ll find thar all good
things of the season, and canned fruit, held over from
last year, baked in Bawltimorc. Hence you see iu
this the Darwinian theory is korrect; that similar
sabjccta are not dissimilar, bewt similar to similar
substances.
Chatter 2—(Without Josh.)—When Benner’s bear
thst day had “snapped the chains of slavery,” he de-
liberatively walked across the street with his habitual
dignity, for the purpose ef interviewing Bond Broth
ers upon general topics of the day, but especially upon
the price of hide. Huff ’a horse was standing there,
and the bear not recognizing him as an equal, refused
to go around or even wait until he could
get out of the way. And just here came
at least oue funny incident which
goes te upset the Darwinian doctrine that all animals
are equal; the bear was smaller than the horse, and
attempted to pats under him. This the horse object
ed to. Bulk does not constitute courage, notoriety
virtoe, or appearances as rare fact. The horse stamped-
ed. The mountain run from the mouse and Benner
repaired the broken edges, not of the
mouse but of tho horse and the buggy.
Meantime the bear was reported loose; and so soon as
the news reached the corner of Cherry and Second,
that local of the Telegraph wont np the first tree at
hand. The bear ascended the first telegraph pole in
sight and commenced sending special dispatches in
regard to the matter. Lines being down with all other
points, the Herald, of course, got the first and only
true report.

OF THE
AJJD ENCYCLOPEDIA.
complete Directory and Book of Reference for the use of Farmers, Mer
chants, Manufacturers, Professional and Business Men generally.
The Most Valuable and Practical Work ever Published in The South.
The Georgia Gazetteer and Encyclopedia of Knowledge useful to every Farmer, Merchant, Manufactu
rer, Professional and Business Man in the State, compiled by JAMES P. HARRISON, will be published on
or about JANUARY i, 1874, by the Franklin Steam Printing House, Atlanta, Ga.
Determined to supply a want long felt in business circles, the Compiler and Publishers have completed
arrangements by which a work will be offered to the public equal, and in many respects superior, to any pub
lication of the kind ever brought out in the United States. The work will probably be the largest ever
issued from the Southern Press, and will be made up in the finest style of the Typographic Art.
THE FIRST EDITION WILL COMPRISE TEN THOUSAND!! COPIES!
The work will be illustrated with views of Public Buildings, and other points of general interest in the
State. It will also contain
MAPS OF THE CHIEF CITIES OF GEORGIA.
Among the leading features of this great and unique work will be a complete BUSINESS DIRECTORY
of every city, town and village in the State; giving the names and kind of business of every business and
professional man in each of them, alphabetically arranged; also, the name of
Every Farmer in Georgia,
with such information as will contribute toward a correct estimate of the financial standing of every larmer,
compiled from Official Sources. The work will also give the name and office of every public officer and
functionary in the State; a list of charitable institutions, Masonic, Odd Fellow, Temperance and other Lodges
and Societies, with the names of their officers; also, a list of Churches, Schools, etc., throughout the State;
also, interesting tables from the most reliable sources of the condition of our State Finances, and its transac
tions ; also, a valuable history of the material wealth and resources of the State; its railways, chief manufactures,
and internal improvements completed, in progress, or contemplated.
It will also contain a census of the State, arranged by counties, with the value of Agricultural, Mining
and Industrial products of each county; also, a complete list cf Post Offices, Internal Revenue Offices, etc., etc.;
also, an accurate TRAVELERS’ GUIDE, with such other Statistical, Historical and General information as
will make it unsurpassed as an
EVALUABLE BOOE OF 1 REFERENCE!
This work will be the best advertising medium ever offered to the Commercial World, and a copy of it
should be kept in every counting-room in the Southern States, and find a place in every’ library.
Our Agents are now canvassing Georgia and the adjoining States. We bespeak for them the favorable
consideration of the public, and unlimited patronage for the great and invaluable Southern work they represent.
