It apjears that the man was em- ployed with o:hers in taking down the buildiag, which is ‘one of a lofty row of houses in Nassau street, being at the corner of the intersection of that street with Bsexman street, and its demolition is beg eas for the widening of the latter, which improvement has been for some time in active progress. The individual who met with the acci- dent was employed in the upper or fifth story, helping to lower down the rafters and other materials of the floors, the roof paring eee already taken off, and lkewise a part of the side walls below it. While omployed in so doing, be laid hold of the rope, which he supposed to be fast; but it bappened otherwise. for having novhiog to steady himself with—rbe rope being loose—he fell through aa open wirdow frame behind, fronting Nassau street, from which alf the woodwork had been taken out, and was pre« cipitated the height of five floors to the ground. His fail. however, was comewhat broken by the iren awning in front oi the store, the rods of which were ben! coa- siderably by the violence with which he came dows, or otherwise the accident must have been fatal.

A verdict was rendered of accidental death. Fata, Accipent —Yesterday afternoon, two children, named, respectively, Thomas Flood and’ Edward Riley, both very young avout eight years of age, were playing among pile of Iumber at the foot of fhirtisth streos, North river, when by some chance the lumber gave way, and fell upon them both. The first, named Thomas Flood, was #0 severely cut about the head that he died at the Hospital, whither they were both immediately taken; and the other, Edward Riley, received a compound f ture of the leg. ‘The father of the latter lives in Tweaty- veventh street, between the Ninth and Tenth ayenu and is employed in the foundry in Thirteenth street, near the North river.

Foster was the first witness called, and the first bill in the civil suit was con- no jurtediction over the coa- ww urged, complaint was swora to; and they should be com, to exhaust their teati- mony as to the further bill, or withdraw the complaint. Counsel for prosecution did not intend to withdraw the complaint, but would ar ee both, or the original bill only, if they failed to briog the other to ligat. They were.both parcel of the same offence, and svt out in the complaint sworn by Mr. Drury Justice Stuart conceded to this view, and the witness being sworo deposed :— He was in August. 1852, at the date of the paper pro duced, Acting Commissioner of Deeds in the city of New York; the jurat was signed by him, and he never sigaed one without administering the oath; he believed he had administered it in this tase, but he could not ideatify Mr. Boyd as che man who swore it. It was sworn io this cits Mr, Albert Gallatin Stevens was then called again to the stand He admitted that he had a paper pucp eting to be adraft of the further bill of particulars, out he objected to produce it; he now appeared as counsel for the defendant, and claimed that it was a privileged com- munication, which the law held sacr-d. [a support of his views, he cited # case from IiL. ** Hull,’’ aad 34 vol. of ©Graham’s Practice.’’ touching the dudes, &s, of attor- neys. The law in all the American cou:ts was the same sin the Engii-h, and commanicatious reduced to writ- ing were equally privileged. apd the attorney was not only authorized but bound to withhold them. justice Stuart doubted whether the ‘aw was ante to the circumstances of this case, or whether he could withhela it. Mr. Stevens did not suppoee that they or any one would charge him with participating in the larceny; if #0, of course he would decline ans fering, as he would be crimi- nating himself. Jus ice Stuart thought the communication had been mace public by the wi'ness in the courts ei cution contended it was a diferent egether. It was one of a paper which bad been Los! heving been in public use, They had sworn that it was used before the referee, Mr. Stevens replied that it was not public, and the paper in question had erasures and interlineations, which ought not to be inquired into, justice Stuart thought the only questions was, whether it was a reliable paper at all, which they could ask to rely upon in euch a serious case. Frovecution had some views he wished to suggest to the Court. They had entered a complaint agalast Mr. Boyd, for corruptly and falsely swearing to certain facta, y bill of particulars.” He alleged he hada counter claim. It appeared that they (Messrs. Stevens & Campbell) had been employed to draw for Mr. Boyd that paper, which purported to give the items of this claim; a copy had been made by one of a) and delivered to the plaintiffs, under an order of one of the judges of the Superior Court. After having made the draft, says Mr. Cumpbell, he handed it to some ono; he did not recollect to whom. After it was copied he sawa paper in his offie containing the signature of Mr. Boyd, with the signature of Mr. Joseph Strong, as Commission- er of Deeds; that they said was the original bili of par- ticulars; it existed in their office and continued there un- tal after the care eae capone of; they had chownit in thelr possession ard produced a copy, which the witness himself hsd made, and which he intended should have beena true copy of the origizal bill of particulars, though be hesitated in using the word original; that copy, he stated, be served on them, and took it himself, according to the best of his recollection; this was the ped which be intended to have made a true copy of the bill which had disappeared; on the back was tne certia: cate of his partner that it wasa true copy, and it net forth the signature cf Mr. Boyd and the jurat, by Mr. Strong, as Commissioner. if they served a taking the proper precautior it is @ deceit, and by the laws of the State a misdemeanor. ey wanes to prove that Mr. Boyd had sworn to a paper of which that was a copy; and was there no way of doing that if the ori; Paper was got out of the way? Was there any doubt that that contained the substance of what be swore? They had proved by two witnesses ey had a paper im their possession with signature an jurat; that that paper was lost, and that the one & ey duced was a copy; or would do so if they proved that each agreed with the draft, according to the mathema‘ cal postulate, that ‘things that are equal to the same thing are equal te one another” He contended it was imposcible to exolude this from the publis, as it was not a cunfider tial communication in the conduct of a suit. Defeudant’s counsel argued that to prove the contents of ory was to invade the confidence which the law pro tecied. Justice Stuart thought the Iaw did not apply. Did he swear too cc’ tain state of facts, and were they used on the trial? He was disposed to admit anything that would particularly and fuily establish the truth. De- fendant’s coun-el urged they could not extract a forged psper, and cited un authority. Prosesution agreed as to confidential communications; but this was made for the pupme of bewg divulged;’ and if they could compel ‘them to produce the original, could they not make them prove the eonterta if it was lost? Justice Stuart thought they could have extracted the origmal. and could compel them to show that paper Mr. Stevena here asked counsel’s advice, saying he would rather submit to an attachmen: than deliver that paper. His reputation wa: stake, Suppose it went Out to the world that he had made a pubiic statenent. Counsel observed he would sooner remain in prison than deliver up the paper. Prosecution said if it wasarale, it was only for the client’s protection, and the attorney might ve it by consent. Defendant’s counzel would not advise him to consent. Mr. Stevens asked for opportunity to take farther ad- vice from experienced counsel, and Justice Stuart ulti- mately made an order that the paper, (the draft,) be produced; but would not order any attachment till next meeting, that Mr. S, mtght have the opportunity be rought for of obtaiving acvice as to his duty to the pub- lic as well as bis clients. He should then certainly order one it it was not produced. Adjourned by consent of all parties, till Tuesday, the 28d inst , at il A. M. ARREST OF A NOTORIOUS THIEF, CHARGED WITH SHOPLIFTING AND HOTEL ROBBKRIES—RECOVERY OF A LARGE AMOUNT OF THE PROPERTY, FOR WHICH OWNERS ARE WANTED.

Tho officer came and took the scoused into custudy, and conveyed him to the Chief's office, when, just ss they extered the office, the prisoner endeavored to throw kowething awsy from his person; this attracted the atwention of the officer, who picked up the articles thua thrown down, aod found it to bea roll of pawn 8, showing an exhivit of valuable pieces of black sUk ebaw!s, mother of pear! opera g) two Indies’ a, ove a striped silk dress, quite new, eeveral pack- ages of white sin gloves, two of ult’s revolver pistola, two gold wate vers other articles, too name: rous to mention.

HM. 0. PROBABLE MURDER IN PHILADELPHIA.—A great excitement was created last evening, in the vicinity of 7th and Lombard streets, by the report that a man named Patrick McGowan bad murdered his wife. We repaired to the spot this morning, and found Coroner Goldsmith there about to hold an inquest. The house where the affair oecurred is occnpied in front by a wretched apology for a atore; the proprietor of the shop—the alleged murderer—lived in a room in the rear, which is about 10 by 12 feet in dimensions. The victim lay upon the floor just as she had died, and presented a shocking pppeeranice. She was covered with filth, and her bore unmistakable evidences of the miserable life she had led. A few wretched articles of furniture were in the apartment, and upon a heap of raga in one corner ef the room a decrepit old woman was lying. The poor creature was the mother of deceased. She ‘was sworn, and testified in substance as fullows:— McGowan and his wife had been married four years, during which time they lived very unhappily toge- ther. Both drank freely and the husband was never sober. They were both drunk terday; in the af- ternoon they had a quarrel, and blows followed; the wife fell w the floor, and died there ina few minutes. The witness said that McGowan had killed the,woman, and had often threatened to do so on for- mer oecasions. Dr. J. 8. Helfricht was sworn, and testified that he was called in, with Dr. Ashton, about nine or ten o'clock last evening; the body was still warm, al- though life was extinct; and having heard it inti- mated that the deceased come to her death from taking laudanum, he applied the stomach pump* but could find no traces of the presence of the drug. Christian Guger resides next door to McGowan's. He was sworn, and testified that the character of the deceased was rery -bad. She was frequently drunk, and very disorderly. Late yesterday after- noon she was in front of his house, and said her hus- band was killing her. He saw her lying dead in the house soon afterwards. The investigation before the Coroner's jury was postponed until 9 o’clock to-morrow morning, in order to afford time for it mortem examination. McGowan was arrested last evening, and locked up at the St. Mary street station house. This morning ell Armstrong committed him for a further earing. The parties are Irish. The prisoner is an old man and much detormed. The wife was much younger. She leaves an infant about two months old. Rum was evidently at the bottom of the disgusting drama.—Philadelphia Bulletin, Aug. 12. From THe Fisnixe Grounps.—A letter, dated Kennebunkport, Aug. 6, which we find in the Bos- ton Courier, says :—‘“‘ Arrived, schooner Signal, Hutchins, from Bay Chaleur, with 43,000 fish; also, 9th, schooner Arunnah, Manuel, from same pice, with 24,500 fish. The skipper and crew of this schooner report the intentional collision of Her Britannic Majesty’s steamer Devastation on the 23th of July. It was clear sun light,and the Arunnah was twelve miles from land, near St. John Island. The captain of the Devastation had spoken ber the evening previous, and ordered them to keep a light all nigbt, which was not done. On the morning of the 28th the steamer was seen coming for them, and those on board the schooner heard the order given to “Starboard,” which made her course directly for the schooner. The subsequent order of “Steady, steady,” was given, and the steamer struck the stern of the schooner, taking off the main boom and gaft, and doing other damage. Not a word was spoken on board the steamer, which kept on her course. The captain of the schooner has noted a po and will make a statement of his case.” ‘he Devastation is likely to maintain her bad name this year as well as she supported it last year. TxyRRITORY OF Nepraska.—The Independence (Mo.) Messenger says:—A convention of the citizens of Nebraska territory was held at Wyandotte City on the 26th ult., designed as a demonstration in favor of ization of a territorial government over Ne- braska, similar to the one contemplated in the bill that passed the House of Representatives daring last session of Congress. The following provisional offi- cers wele elected:—Capt. William Walker, provision- al Governor; George I. Clark, provisional Secretary. Hon.

Rock Blasting —Jairdier vs. Cormack.—-The laintiff in this case seeks damages for injuries done his house in the Eighth avenue, by the blasting of rocks by persons in the employment of the defend- ant. The action was formerly oh before one of the district Judges, (Mr. Justice Wiliis,) who de- cided that the plaintiff covld not recover. Judge Woodruff, of the Common Pleas, reviewed this de- cision, and ordered a new trial. The case accord- ingly came before Judge McCarthy, and it appeared that the plaintiff held a lease of the premises, in- cluding a ga house and outbuildings, which he had underlet. ¢ defendant served a notice on the plaintiff, directing him to take care of his property, as he was about to have some blasting done. The work was commenced; rocks flew in all directions, striking the house and shattering the windows and walls. The tenants left in consternation. For the defendant it was contended that no material injury was done the yeas The Court gave judgmeat for plaintiff, $75 damages and coats. Common Pleas—%pecial Term, Before Hon. Judge Daly.
