Ssw Tors, Aug. 7.—At the time of this writing there are accounts of a great German victory on the Rhine. If this tnms out to be confirmed, the gold market will be likely to open weak to-mor row. A Prussian triumph means ease tn the Ger man money markets, and the retention of our bonds in Germany; while a French success is likely to withdraw German capital tromour bonds, and send them back to ns in great numbers, no far there la no indication that American securities are to any extent yet on their way home, while, at the same time, the drain of onr gold to Europe is prodi gious. It averages 10,000.000 per week; the total shipments of specie since. January 1 have been $37,9)7,911. Anything that looks like a pratenc*- turn of the war will be regarded ben as an indi cation of the upward movement tn gold. Not withstanding the reported German victories, those who profess to know the French people best, thatthey will not be cast down by the reverses, but will continue the war to tbe bitter end. The results are not obtained lu a day. Since the Introduction of anna dr pm&fon in modern warfare, battles are matters of weeks instead of days. In old times, the fate of empires was decided in a single col lision. Now, the roe oil depends on a series of en gagements, as in onr own civil war and the Sa 1- uwa campaign. No utter destruction of armies is possible; bonce the weakness In gold which may be developed to-morrow or this week will not necessarily prevent a snbseauent very heavy rise. Thu chances are for a very lively gold market dur ing tbe coming iwo weeks.

THE NATHAN MYSTEEY. Kcwand Interesting Developments— strange Story of a Newsboy—Judge XSedlord to the Grand Jury* From (Ac .New York Timet, Aug. 0. There wae£ renewed activity, yesterday, at Police Headquarters Id tbo investigation of the Nathan tragedy. The publication in the Times of the offer by tho family of the mur dered man of additional rewards, brought out some new phases of the case, new. however, only to tho public, for they have been familiar to tbo detectives from tbo beginning. The reward of SSOO for tbe appearance of the man who, on the morning of the murder, picked up a piece of paper from tbe top frort step of tho Nathan residence, refers to the most in teresting and, in ono respect, the most im portant of those developments. It appears that a newsboy has long been In the habit of folding bis papers on wet morn ings on tbo doorstep of tbo Nathan bouse, which is always dry on account of a broad pro jection overhead. Friday morning being wet, he went there for (hat purpose, as Uouai, and bad got only to the bottom of the steps, being yet on the sidewalk, when he noticed that the hall door was partly open. This was about 5 o’clock in the morning, but the boy, suppos ing tbe servants were np unusually early and wore abont to wash the steps and pavement, went to the stops of the next honee and folded his papers there. While he was doing so he noticed a man in laboring dress, with a dinner-pail in his hand, suddenly pause as he was passing the Nathan boose, and then going np the steps pick up a Urge niece of white paper from the top stop and walk away. The circum stances did not at the moment seem impor tant or singular to tho boy, bat when the mur der was discovered an hour afterward, it seemed both singular and important, and he at oneo sought ont tho police and told bis story. Search for the unknown laboring man, this minnte and undistinguisbablo atom in tbe great mass of humanity was at once instituted, and a great deal of the time of several of tho most oxperienceddetectives has beeuoonsnmed ever since the day of themurder in endeavoring to trace him out. It has all been entirely wasted. It is deemed most singular that this man has never voluntarily come forward since tbe announcement of the murder with what ever information ho happened to pick np in tho dawn of that tragical morning from the steps of the Nathan mansion. It is supposed that his non-appearance is due cither to the fact that what he picked np was a bond or something of value, which he dceircs to keep, or tbit he has never yet associated the house where he found it with tbe one where the mur der was committed. It is not probable that in casually picking np a piece of paper, if it seemed to him of no value, be noticed the number of the house, or he may have for gotten the circumstance altogether. The etory of the newsboy, if believed, and there is no good reason for doubting it. settles beyond dispute a most important ques tion in tbo case. There have Hitherto been two opinions as to whether the front door was open or shot on the morning of tbe murder, but there can be but ono now. We have now tbo concurring testimony of young Mr. Na than. of General Clair, and the newsboy, that the door was open, and against it oxdv that of Patrolman Man gam, who persists in declaring that it was shat. The patrolman has a very strong Interest in sticking to his story, for he admits that be passed tbe door a little before 6 o'clock, when it must, according to all other testimony, have been sufficiently ajar not only to be noticed by tbe newsboy from the spot wbero the patrolman stood, but by General Clair from a distant window of the Hotel oppo site. If the patrolman were to acknowledge a dereliction of duty so gross as tbe neglect to notice so obvious and important a fact, it would subject him to severe punishment, If not dismissal from his position; and it is not surprising, therefore, that bo stordilv insists thawbe looked at the door at o’clock, and saw that it was closed. On tbo otherhand, the newsboy told his story before be or any one knew that tbe point was in dispute and at all events had no interest in telling anything bnt the exact truth. The concur rence of testimony not only establishes tbe fact that tho front door was open from 5 to C o'clock, or for st least an entire boor before tho discovery of the murder, but throws con siderable donbt upon the assertion of the pat rolman that ho tried both the basement and front doors at 4j£ o’clock, and found both fastened. In this case, also, be was np a case for himself against the imputation of carelceeDces in the discharge of dnty, and it is so improbable that any policeman, un der ordinary circumstances, would take the trouble to try both doors of a private resi dence after daylight in tbs morning, that tbe t-Utement is received with many grains of al lowance. In his examination by Superinten dent Jonrdan on the morning of the murder, Man gam said that he began, at 6J* o'clock, at Seventh avenue and Twentv.secood street, go ing through Twenty-second street to Fourth avenue, np that street to Twentv-third street, and through the latter to tbe house of Mr. Nathan, tho doors of which ho tried at 4>£ o'clock, and as be insisted, also, that be tried every door as he went, be was claiming that he bad achieved an impossible feat, Superin tendent Jonrdan, at least, thought so, for be told Man gam at the time that the thing coaid nut be done, bnt the latter not only persisted that he bad done it on that particular morning, hut that it was his rim* for going over that portion of his poet. Tbe general effect, then, of this last devel opment has been to remove all doubt on one point of tho case, hot So increase them on another. It can no longer be denied that the front door was not only unfastened, but par tially open at aa early as 5 o'clock, and the important fact of whether it was fastened or cot at an earlier boor is pal in great doubt. In other respects the new offer made by the family gives new facts and affords larger scope fur the exertions of tho detectives There was an old-fashioned cold watch, which was in the safe, also taken by the murderer, which not only gives another' possible cine to his detection, bnt establishes the important fact that the safe was rifled, which was before left in doubt. In one respect the fact is of little value, as the watch, although an old pos session in the family, had been noticed so lit tle of lat c yean that no particular description of it can be gives, and It may pass without discovery from hand to hand. Superintendent Jonrdaa was kept very busy all of vcslerday in the investigation of the care. The detectives were constantly taking persons into his private office, where their statements were taken down verbatim by Mr. ilellisb, the stenographer of the Pobce De partment. In addition to this work there were several important consultations daring the day. Mayor Hall, Coroner Rollins, and As sistant District Attorney Fellows called at dif ferent times, and baa protracted interviews with Superintendent Jonmao. Mr. Cohen and Hon. E. B. Bart also called on behalf of the Nathan family, to make final arrangements fur the issuing of the areolar announcing the rewards offered by the family, as published in the Times yesterday. Bat there was no tan gible result from this activity and labor. So far as the public were informed, no progresa whatever was made In solving the problem which thus far has baffied tireless energy and on equaled ekflh Alter the grand Jury bad finished the busi ness cf the term at tbe Court of General Ses sions, Judge Bedford addressed them as fol lows: Hr. Femur axo G*nttjd«n of t&z Giukd ft, the right wing of the Prussians moved upon ay a few days before, and routed them.

Permit me in all sincerity, in behalf of the law-abiding citizen* of this city, to thank yon. not only fur the prompt and rapid manner In which you nave fulfiied your duties, but also for the sound dlAcretlon which has guided your action, promptly discharging when there was not sufficient evidence to warrant find ing an indictment, and as promptly tcdlcnog when there was sufficient to have a item Jury pass □pon the ease. Whenever a grand Jury have completed their labors, they are discharged by the Conn. To-day I deem It my dnty to make an execution to this general rule. There i* going on in’ this city an Investigation, tbe object ul wnlcb is to lay tbe Iron band of tbe law ou tbu murderer of a re spected and honored citizen. Happily for the ends of Justice 1 am satisfied that Super.mendcai Jonrdan and the District Attorney and bis asso ciates are doing everything In their power to throw light upon tbe, as yet, shrouded mystery. As I have reason to have great hopes that tho guilty ones wifi b« brougnt to justice in a few oar a, I deem it out prudent and wise not to dis charge you, but to ask yon all to hold yourselves In readiness so as to answer at once any summons which may be Issued for your attendance.
