panerere te A WOUNDED FRANC-TIREUR’S STORY. Melancholy Legend of the House at Chiselhurst. (Visit to Vouleyent-lc-Chateau—The Houss Where ‘Prince Frederick Charles Stopped In— Napoleon's Statue—Brienne—Disoov- eries—The Wounded Frano-Ti- _ reur—Legend of Chiselhurst, —. Brienne, Dec. 2, 1870, fT have just been visiting Vouleyent-le-Chatcau, @ pretty little place, over which the war storm has ‘paased without entirely ruining it. It was in tne beginning of last month that the leaders of the ‘Becona Army corps made this their headquarters, and the inhabitants (for there are inhabitants left) ‘wil toll you, with acertain awe, how “Monselg- mour le Prince” took up bis abode in the Chateau. ‘Tnie Chateau, for which they have almost feudal admiration, ts an vugly-looking place cnough outside, though it stands in a fine park. It has the historical association of a visit from Napo- Joon the First in the days of his decline; Jn fact, lt was here that he recelyed the news of the advance of the allies upon Paris, All the neighbor- hood of Vouleyent-le-Chateau and Brienne is im- ‘pregnated with Napoleonic reminiscences, Brienne, As, doubtless, your readers have often enough been reminded lately, being the place of the great Napo- Yeon‘s military schooldays. STATUB OF NAPOLEON AT BRIENNE. ‘The statue of Napolvon tho First still stands at Brtenne. {t represents bim as a young student, but the teatures and expression have all the determina- tion with which we are famillar in his older portraits. ‘The base of the statue is of green marble, on which ‘pve engraved the words of the hero himself—“Pour mma pensée Brienne est ma patrie, C’est 18 que j’al Yessentt les premieres tmpressions de l'homme." I was looking at it the other day, when some chil- dren went by—oue little girl had a child in her arms, not above a year old I fancy, while the small hhurse herself might be about eight. “Ziens mon enfant,” she said, when she got near the statue, ‘shake thy fist at the naughty man,” which that infant then and there accompilshed to the admira- tion of all benolders, who appeared delighted to see that atom of humanity defying the stone effigy of tue great conqueror. I wonder whether before that ghild has attained years of discretion the Napoleons Will be reigning once more. BRIENNE. ‘This place itself was, on the 9th of last month, the headquarters of Prlace Frederick Charles, who took took up his temporary abode in the castle of Brienne, the Prince de Beauffremont’s place, It 18 @ grand building and a perfect museum o: the fine arts, lhaving especially some fine pictures and bronzes. Tow they could have been preserved I know not, for the Chateau de Brienne was one of the many burnt aown ip the first French revolution, to be ree built very soon after In the early days of the first empire. The whole of the gilded saloons, the ele- gant balis and bounoirs are now in as good onder as Mf no cruel war had come near them, It 1s almost Incredible to see the delicate eggshell china there standing safe and sound thus near wild scenes, where much that was so stron and great has perished.

Visit of a Herald Reporter to the Philadelphia Prison, nnn His Recoption by the Supsrintendent—Inspection of the Model of the Gallows—The Murderers Who Have Boon Hung Thereon—The Prison Inspected—Some of the Prisoners Interviewed. PHILADELPHIA, Jan, 1, 1871. {t was a bright, beautiful winter day whon a rep- Tosentative of the H&RALD entered the gloomy por- tals of Moyamensing prison in search of some statts- ties of that celebrated institution for the past twen- ty-five years, the time it has been mm operation. The wicket closed with a sharp click and the massive bolts shot into place as I entered the corridor and inquired for Mr. Howard Perkins, Jr., assistant superintendent of the prison.’ The gatekeeper re- quested me to wait a few moments until he inquired if Mr, Perkins was visible, In the meantime I took a survey of THE GIDDEY over the office entrance, said to have been in use tn the colonial days of Pennsylvania, One can easily imagine the terrible sufferings of the unhappy wretch doomed to die by that devilish instrument. Made of hoop tron, it will just contaia a fall grown man; the hoops are tightened aad riveted, aud the criminal is swung into the alr “in ye market place’’ toslowly die irom the combined attacks of hunger and the clements, and left to be the prey of the birds of the air until nothing remains but a ghastly skeleton to remind passers-by of the majesty of the law. Happily for our progressive age this method of execution 13 forever abotshet in the Untted States and England. It is oc- casionally practised, even at this late day, by pirates aud treebooterg in Southern European countries, The gatekeeper returned inafew mo- ments and informed me that Mr. Perkins awaited me in the office. I pasyed in and was welcomed by Mr. Perkins to the hospitalities of Moyamensing. 1 replied that “hospitalities’” were good, but I came in search of information and would preter to dispense wita the hospitauty generally administered in that institution, Mr. Perkins similingly repited:— “Oh, that’s it; have a seat and I will be happy to give you any information | possibly can consistently with the rules of the prison.’ CoRRESPONDBNT—I believe Philadelphia just), claims to have graduated some of the greatest critail- hals of the age. Some of them are doubtless in your custody at present. Can you give me a littic history of some of their crimes * Mr. PERKINS—I do not know that our city is par- ticutariy proud o1 tie honor (?), but it ts nevertie- loss @ 1act that this city does lake the lead in gradu- aung criminais of a certain order. ‘take, for instance, Haulon. (we think he leads the world), Probst and Twitchell. ‘The murders comimitied by these men are probably uuoquatied in tie history of the United States Do you see tuat bust just over the window? That is Probst. Tae impression was taken just atter his execution, and ti you see him just as natural as—death, The mark around we neck was doue by the rope. Although he commit- ted a horrible crime (murder of the Deering fannly) he was as diferent trom Hanlon as day from night, He gave us no trouble whatever, aud was very re- peulaat. He seemed to ‘cei tuat he had made a very bad mistake 1n life, and was willing to atone for it 80 lar as tae surrender of his life could do, Hanlon 1s ugly, cross and morose, always finding fault; aad I doubt if he hasa grain of sympathy in Pnitadel- phia outside of fis own family. He don't seem to Pussess the feelings tuat generally actuate con- demned marderers. He bas but a moaii to live, yet he don’t manifest that feeling and appreciation of tis situauoa iat almost mvartavly take pusses- sion of the condemned. He ts, undoabiealy, the Worst mau With wiout we have ever liad to do. ConnusronpEwt—Tho priest visits him, dses he not? Mr. Perwins—Yes, every day, What takes place between them I do net gnow. I oaly know what our experiences are. OoxRaseONDENT—You doubtiess have the scaffold on which murderers are executed. Mr. PERKINS—Yes, but itis now taken apart; we have a model which [ send to sheriffs In ditterent yutts of the State, who, upon beiny called on to per- form the extreme penaity of the law, find themsetves novices in the art, some of thei never haying seen @ scadvld. Mr. Foove—calling an attendant— Won't you go up stairs and get that scaitold model in the lead-colured vox? The model was brought down and adjusted. It is as fol- lows:—'‘The doors are lastened to two upright posts at either end. The posis are doveiailed to cross- eves on the ground-and one cross-beam on the top. fue doors, wich work by hinges, are supported 0} three props. The prisoner asceuils the scaifola wit! the priest or minister, who.adermisters the last con- solations of region and descends, Two of the props are removed, and at a given signal the Sheri pulls the remaining prop from the centre. The doors fall apart and the crimimal 1s launcued into eternity.” JORBESPONDENT—DO you keep the ropes as me- menioes? Mr, Parxixs—Yes; I have quite a number; I will show Liem to you. He passed iside the desk ralling, unlocked a drawer in the desk, and produced from three bags, that looked very much like pillow cases, the ropes by which some noted criminals had met their death, They were labelled as foliows:— Winnelmore, August 29, 1867; Eaton, Aprii 9, 1869; Probst, June 8, 1366, [The rope by which Provst was Iming has been cut up to within two inches of the noose and given to relic hunters.

W. H. 1. NEVILL, a physician, formerly doing business on the corner ot Nineteenth and Coates sirecis, 18 accused of per- forming an abortion, and afterwards throwing the infant trom a bridge into Cohocksink creek, where it was shortly afterwards discovered and breaght to land. Two ladies—Mrs, Taylor and Miss Ttaines— are very positive in thoir identification of Dr. Ne- vill as the man whom they saw drive up to the bridge and threw the box containing the child into the water below. The Doctor was arrested the neat day. He relies on his ability to prove an albiby a dozen witnesses, It is generally supposed that the doctor is innocent, and that this is a case of mis- taken identity, He is: Py inate of the Homo. pathic Medical College of Penusylvania, and has always borne the best character among the pliysi- cians of Philadelphia, who stick to him to @ man. Not so pleasant is the predicament in which DOCTOR REED finds himself, Two aistinct charges are filed against him. One of the cases of which he is accused re- suited in the death of the mother. THE PRISON AFFAIRS are conducted with the utmost regularity and disct- pling. Mr, Howard Perkiaa, Sr., and nis son, How- ard Perkins, Jr., are to Moyamensing what ker Pulsbury is to the Albany Penitentiary. Their rule is kindness, combined with firmness.

THE COUNT JOANNES AS A DETECTIVE, A Reminiscence of His Career in Boston Bight or Nine Years Ago, How He Got an Iunocont Man Arrested for the Murder of a Bank Clerk and Narrowly Escaped a Coat of Tar aud Feathers. Boston, Jan. 3, 1871. The long yarn which appeared in a New York paper the other day, that George Jones, sometimes known as the Count Joannes, had got on the trail of the Nathan murderer, or had actually discovered him, has created a good deal of merriment m and around Boston. It is regarded as the most stupen- dous joke of the season, and its publication would have been more appropriate on the Ist of April than at any other time during the year. The only serious thing about it 18 the fact that any paper should have devoted so much space to sueh a transparent huin- bugging narrative. This, however, is not the first time the ‘Count’ has assumed the role of a detective and undertaken to bring to punishment the perpetrator of a myste- rtous muraer. Some eight or nine years ago he was a resident of Boston. Witile he lived here there was a most horrible tragedy committed in the neighbor- ing town of Malden. A young man named Converse, ‘a clerk in the viliage bank and a son of the cashier, was found dead behind the counter at midday, and all the funds lying around (some five or six thousand dojlars) were missing. A bullet wound in the head showed plainly the cause of death. No one heard a shot, and there was no clue tothe murderer. Tne town was filled with excitement and grief, and large rewards were offered by the, bank and the town au- thorilies. The keenest detectives worked day and night, and every citizen vied with them in ferreting outthe perpetrator of the foul deed. Weeks and Weeks passed by and the tragedy remaimed as much of a mystery as the Nathan horror now is. One day the community was staried by the announcement that the murderer had been discovered ia the per- son of the proprietor of & Un and stove store, nearly Opposite the bank, and the indelatigable Count Joannes was the ove who had unravelied the mys- tery. He had spent much of the tine just previ- ously in Maiden, agd, as he supposed, having got his evideace of guilt all compilece, he secured the arrest of the stove dealer. Judge Warren, of Charlestown, granied the warrant, aud @ Makiea officer served it, The commuuity was more shocked at the arrest of the party accusea by the “Count” than at the murder itseif, and few, if any, believed him guilty. The enterprising detec- ‘tive persisted, however, that he had tound the real culprit, and undertook to sabslantiate jus charges in the Uharlestowu Police Court, wiere the party was brought up for a preiiminary examinauon, District Attorney Morse Was present to assist the “Count? in pyusecuting the case, and afier a searching aud lengthy hearing tue government attorney declared in “open court that there was noi the most filmsy particle of evidence, and he therefore moved the honorable discharge of the prisoner, and he was accordlugly acquitted amid a round of cheering irom the crowd wich filled the court room. When the enthusiasm had abated the innocent man sobbed like a child, and nearly every one in the court room Was moved W tears, ‘There seemed to be no end of the congratulations showered upon him, and no words in the English language suiiiciently emphatic to expreas their Contempt for the detective “Count.” As soon as the decision of the court was announced he leit Lmmediately for Boston, and thus escaped & coat of tar and feathers wich a few friends of the falsely accused man were at that moment, pre- paring for him. Finding, at lengi, that the subject of their wrath ha slipped them, the citizens took their outraged townsman upon their shoulders and bore him to a gayly decorated barge, which, with a band of music preceding, Was driven in triumph to bis residence in Maiden. The citizens turned out tn thousands to cheer and congratulate him, and in the evening an impromptu meeting was held in the Town Hall, The spacious edifice was filled in every part, and not more than half who came could gain admission. Prayers were offered, tears flowed profusely, resolu- tions were adopted, and tuere was such a joyous hullabaloo as was never witnessed in Malden beiore orsince., The innoceuce of aa innocent man was vindicated und rejoiced over, aud the persecutions of a volunteer detective were deuounced in the most bitter terms, A jew weeks later the town was again startied by the fact that Edward W. Green, the Malden Post- master, had becn arrested for the murger, wich had untti this time remained a profound mystery, He was taken into custody on Sunday evening, and confessed the whole, and went with the officers and took ivom its hiding plaice what remained ol the money Which he stole Irom the bank at.the time of lus horrible crime, When brought up for trial he pleaded guilty, was sentenced to be hung, and two years later It came within the province of your cor- respondent to report his execution for the HERALD. Jn creating suspicion against tals Postmaster Green, the real murderer,” or- im securing. evidence to convict him, the “count? had — nothing to do whatevey, although ho says that it was through his “diplomatic ‘skill,’ in spice of strong opposition, and 1m the face of threats of assassination, that he continued his Investiga- tons and brought him to Justice. Your correspon- dent is personaily familiar with all the details of tne arrest of the inocent man at Joannes’ insiiga- tion, and is also cognizant of all the circumstances atteading the arrest, conviction and execution of the real murderer, without the ald, aud, I suspect, Without even the knowledge of him who claims now to have detected the Nathau murderer, His dec!ara- tion, therefore, that, he was the means oi bringing the Makien assassin to justice 1s, to borrow a phrase from a weil known edi or and philosopher, “an un- mitigated”’—well, never mind thé exact word, it is Angio-Saxon.
