THE NATHAN MURDER.
CAREER, OF A GREAT CRIMINAL.
• The following description of the career
of -William Forreeter, who was recently
arrested for the murder of 'Benjainin
athan, a Wealthy -and prominent- resi-
dent of New York City, and. which etc-
ated considerable sensation: at the tiine
of its coal:mita', is taken front a New
Yoik paper :
W. Forrester was born in the parish of
Lafourche, La., on August 16, 1838„ He
began life as a newsboy on a Mississippi
steumer, and then entored on his most
remarkable career of crime,. Whileyet
a fne.ro youth he was detected ransacking
a passenger's valite on board the steamer
"Pride ;if the West," plying between
New Orleans and Natchez, but his ex-
treme youth and good looks savedlint from
summary.punishment. Within the fol.
loWing three- years he was arrested
eighteentimes on charges of petty theft.
One of his exploits was the robbing of a
drunken Man of $1,.200. For tins of-
fence he was seat to the penitentiary at
Baton Rouge for six months:, In 1853
he served six months it the penitentiary
at Jackson, .Miss., for robbing a member
of thii Legislature, -and in the following
year he was engaged se cabin boy on the
steamer. ''Sultana," ply1og betweeo
Vieksburg and Natchez. On the trip.
while playing bluff with a deck hand
named Jack McCormaek, he was accused
by the latter of cheating, atwhich he
stabbed him in the stomach. He eVas
banded ever to the police of Natehez,
but McOermack failed to appear against
'hini, and young Forrester was discharged.
• From 1854 to 1858, Forrester udder
one of his many aliasee. lounged. around
,.Natchez, the acknowledged associzite of
thtees, bUrg! ars an& murderers. t The
priecipel haunt oc. the gang to which he
belonged was a disreputable house. This
place had become so notorious from the
number of Murders and robberies traced
there that the keeper received notice to
leat-e ldwn, After her departure the
budding wae torn down, and six skele-
tons were fouud beneath the floor.. t One
of thent wat recognized as that of a pro-
minent State offieiol oftlissiesippi, who
had been missing about three months: -
Forrester next went to Colifornia, and
there was °detected in several trivial
thefts, eand was sent_ to the House ot
Refuge by Aleatle Geary, the present
Governor of Pensylvaeria. Forrester did
not remaindong in the House of Refuge.
He tooled the wails one rainyinght, and

then became deepeittttt, and seized For-
re.ster by the throat, lactusing him of

into the river if he did not return some
of the money. Forrester made a Iles-

in Christian Ontario and in the midst of
a chureh-going people, it is really alarm-
ing that .such°things .should be tolerated,
saY nothing aboutsupporting them by
our means and presence. I mean. that
brutal practice of horse racing, together
with its concomitants, quarreling, blas-
phemy, drinking and gambling, allgrdw-
• ing out of the practice -as natural conse-
quence. Also circusses and. their re-
sults, say nothing about the loss of
money expended, that God gives us for
purposes worthy of men that are stew-
ards under.God. But the Sabbath dese-
cration, a part of it a oeCessity in con-
nection with the business. Then, if it
becomes a necessityin moving a show of
that character? tf it is, God was wrong
in commandingus.not to labor but to
keep holy the Sabbath. Besides this,
the cursing and sweating, and drinking

say that if the amount of immorality and.
Sabbath desecration is to be the result,
we had better be without the sight. For
"what shall it profit a men if he gains
the whole wolid, and loses his soul." I
believe that if an amphitheatre was
erected and those cruelties were exercis-

my best wishes for them is that they
may see their folly and repent.
