SY 4 MOB FOR RAPS—LAW AND MISSOUBL A NEGRO HUNG ORDER I= Sesrncte dengue et one of our most respectable citizens. Maj. J. S. Rollins and CoL S.A. Young appeared as counsel at the instance of the dot i mae to see that a fair and fall trial was given, and Odon Guitar, Esq , appeared for the proseoution. A very large concourse of citizens were in attendance, portion of whom were much excited by the daring atrocity of the crime charged, and a firm conviction of the negro’s guilt. This portion of the people were for summary vengeance, without waiting for the issue of the trial. Nevertheless, the trial pro- greased without interruption until about 3 o'clock, when, seemingly no longer able to resist the imoulse of their feelings, a portion of the crowd outside | rushed into the court house, and, overcoming the | importauities and efforts of the court, sheriff, coun- sel, &c., put a rope around the prisoner's ueck, and forced hima into the street. With aa exited popu- | lace wt his heels, he was horrte@ dowa Court-house | street to Broadway, and dowa Broadway to the priage over Flat Branch, at the western extremity of fn, and thence to a wood northwest of the court Here an attempt was made to hang him; attempt which in all probability would have proved successful but for the protestations of many | citzens and the accidental breaking of the rope. | Biaj. Rollins, aod the edi or of this paper, (Gal. Swita'er,) publicly protested against the whole pro- ceecing, aud by adlresses to those concerned, backed by the peaceable importunities and co operation of Mr. Davis, of the Sentinel. and many other citizens, a-suaged in some measure the excitement prevailing, acd taduced those having the prisoner in charze to take him back to jail and allow him the privilege of a legnl trial. On Sabbath the prizoner made a full confession of his guilt, thus relieving all doubts on that subject, at the same time bringiog to light the names of two other negro men of his neighborhood who had made threats that, some time in the future, and upon some white female or other, they would commit a similar outrage. Monday was another day of excitement, and the eople were out in large numbers. There being no jopger @ reasonable doubt of the prisoner's guilt, a ortion cf those present were unwilling to await legal conviction and punishment by the Circuit Coury contengine sae the punishment of the law was not adequate to the crime, aud therefore they were for immediately forcing the locks of the prison and taking the negro and burning or hanging him. At the instanco of the father of the young lady upon whose person the outrage had been attempted, Col. §. A. Young and Odon Guitar, Esq., stated to those determines upon summary punishment, that it was not his desire the negro should be burned, but banged. Mr. Guitar earnestly exhorted them, if it was their determination to hang him, to go about it coolly and do it decently and in order, and not as demons. In order that concert of action might characterize the movements of those participating in the affair, a meeting was held in the street, in front of the court house. Eli EF. Bass, Eeq., one of our most respectable and influential citizenr, was chosen chairman of the meeting. He putthe question whether the negro if that number, voted in favor of burning. Mr. Bass then put the question:—‘‘ All who are in favor of Biteton him will say aye,” and most, -f not al!, said “aye.” A large number of the citizens present did not approve aud took no part in the proceedings. reeks being thus decided upon, a committeo was appointed to procure a rope, a cart on which to con- vey the negro to the place of execution, and a coffin in which to bury him. It was also made the duty of this committee to force the n doors, take the negro out, and hang him “ decently and in order.” Mr. George N. King, was appointed chairman of the committee, with power to appoint nine committee- men to co operate with him. The following are the nemes of the committee asfurnished us by Mr. King, viz :—George N. King, Henry Wilkinson, John Bol- linfer, Wm, Breakey, Wm. B. Cato, John Robinett, <phe Hen, Wm. Hubbard, A. BR. Vest and R. P. aters. About twelve o'clock they proceeded to the jail, and, under the protest of thes , forced the doors, took the negro out, and, followed by a large number of persons, quietly proceeded toa grove northwest of the town,and there the negro was hung and buried. RODEKT ALEXANDER ROBERTSON, AT ALEXANDRIA, KY —THE PRISONER'S ATTEMPT TO COMMIT SUI- CILE—PABOXYSMS ON THE GALLOWS’. {From the Cucinnati Gazetre, Sept. 5 The prisoner, between four and five o'clock on Saturday morning, the éa: opel ae for his execu- tion, attempted to commit suicide by cutting the veins of both arms with a razor, which he had se- creted in the floor of his cell since he was firat in- carcerated, near fifteen months ago. He was brought from the jail with his arms pemets and the fatal noose arvund his neck, by the sheriff and jailer, ie eee of forty armed men, and at a quarter ast eleven o'clock, placed in an express wagon, in which he was seated, alongside of his, coffin. The Verge moved to the scaffold, soms quar- ter of a mile distant, at which they arrived at Lit o'clock. The prisoner, who was much enfeebled from the loss of blood from his selt-inflicted wounds, mounted the steps of the scaffold with slight assis- tance from the Sheriff, on acccount of his arms being pinioned. Prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Spillman, a Baptist clergyman, in which the prisoner joined, exhibiting complete penitence. On rising, the pri- soner proceeded t> address the assembly, which numbered about fifteen hundred, and in a composed aud well connected manner, with some repetitions, however, spoke for about twenty-five’ minutes to the following effect :— Addressing the audience as his dying friends, he said that this was his last appearance; that he was very feeble, but was a great deal better than he had expected to be after the loss of #0 much blood; that he had been in custody near fifteen months; that on the night previous he had attempted, what he nad long detigned—suicide—but had been prevented from completing his design by the jailer, who had entered the cell and took the razor from him; that during his confioemeut he had received every atten- tion, and bore testimony to the kindness of the jailer, the sheriff, and the officers of the court; that as to hia sentence it was entirely unjust; that it was should be burned, and not more than half a dozen, . back, pulled the lever, aud the fell. ory ey a nvabions ended the life of Robert 4. Robertson.

DANIEL T, WOODWARD IN WASHINGTON CITY. [Prom the Evening Star, Set 2 . At five minutes eleven o'clock Woodward with the Rev. J. C. Smith, aj in the jail yard. Rev. Messrs. Cox and Scrivener, Marshal, two Deputy Marehals, ge. hysician of the jail, Colonel Thom, aud brot of Woodward, When Woodward reached the steps of the gallows he stepped forward and quickly ascended, as one would naturally run up stairs in a hu He went to the further corner of the gallows, followed by the Rey. J. C. Smith and the other gentlemen. He look- ed at the trap, and then, with perfect composure, stepped upon it, stood up next to the rope to see how far be would fal; that indicated that he would fall about three feet. And then stepping back, he said to Marshal Hoover, “TI think the full is too great.” He also tried the strength of the trap. A drink of water was then banded to him at his request, which he raised to his mouth with bis pinioned arm. Ashe could not raise it high enough, Mr. Smith guided it. Not drinking freely, he asked Mr. Smith to raise the std higher, so that he could drink more conve- niently. Mr. Smith then made a very effective prayer, during the delivery of which he seemed to listen without being the least affected. Indeed, no one from his sp pearance would have supposed that he was just about to be launched into eternity; Lut, on the contrary, preparing for a feast. After the prayer. he shook hands with Col. Thomap- son, Rev. John C. Smith, Rev. Messrs. Cox aud Scrivener. He then advanced to the trap, and as he was put- ting his feet upon it, he said to Mr. Hoover— Must my feet be tied according to law?” Mr. Hoover re- hed that it should be just as he chose, that the law did not require it. He then called Dr. Semmes, asked him if he thought he would die easier with his feet tied. The doctor replied that he thought he would. He then stood up in the centre of the trap, with his face towards the west, while Mr. Wright, the jailer, tied his feet with cord. The cap was then put upon his head, and the rope was EE foes with the knot on the left side, by tue Mars! He raised the cap and called for a glass of water. Those below thought he was going to speak, but it was not so. After a remark with Mr. mith, he bid farewell to all on the stand, all of whom on that piace left, except Mr. Hoover, tho Marshal, and Mr. Smith. Woodward then kneeled in prayer, with his face to the north, and after Bray. ing a short time silently, he called Mr. Smith to him, and then engaged in prayer a short time longer, still retaining the knee! ing posture. He then rose, Ge — cap was pulled down upon his face by the farshal. He commenced again a silent prayer, with his face still to the north, Mr. Smith standing near, and Mar- shal Hocver with his foot upon the spring, waiting the giving of the signal. After about five minutes in prayer, durieg which he could be seen moving his lips, he (Woodward) gave the signal by throwiog the white handkerchief, as previously agreed ou. Marshal Hoover then touched the spring, and Wood- ward fell about six feet. After be fell he raised his hand once, and his feet several times; and in three minutes he seemed to be dead. After hanging twenty minutes the physician exa- mived him to se if he was dead, and in thir minutes he was lowered down into his coffia. He was again examined in a sitting eee when his neck was found to be broken. body was then deprived of the black shroud, and laid carefully in the beautiful walnut coffin, the lid of which was carefully screwed down. The body isto be delivered to his brother, instead brought about by perjured testimony, and through prejudice as to his past character; but, although it Was on unjust debt, he now paid it willingly, and he implored God to pardon him. He said that he could, unfortunately, neither read nor write, bat that he made & fession to Mr. Spillman, the jailer, who bed written it out in full, and on the previous even- ing submitted it to him, having read it in his hear- ing, and he endorsed it as trae. In it he had men- uoned names, but it was under the advice of Mr. De Courcey, his attorney. He wished his enemios to forgive him, as he forgave them. fie alluded to the attempt made to procure a re- spive from the Governor, which was unsuc-saful, on account of the interposition of a Mr. Baker, for which interposition he was thankful and forgave him, as be was, perhaps, better prepared to die now than two mouths hence. He related some of the circam- stances connected with the fatal casualty by which the death of Gari occurred—and solemnly asserted that he did not design killing him, but had taken the gun ‘rom the hands of another, and was retreat- ing at the time, closely tollowed by Gard; that he had the breech of the gun to his shoulder, and the muzzie pointed to the ground and in the act of let- ting the hammer down, when the unfortunate man struck the muzzle of the Ca knocking it up and causing it to go off, an the contents of the gun were lodged in the thigh; that if he had in- tended to have committed wilful murder, he would not bave simed there. (He is reputed a superior markswan) He therefore thought the jury erred in finding him guilty of wilful murder under the oir- cumstances, and expressed the hopo that it would be a warning against similar occurrences in the fu- ture. He closed his remarks by pardoning his en- emies, and imploring his auditory to discharge their duties, and hoped God would bless them all. At the conclusion of his address he seated himself, end in a few moments a short prayer was offered by the same baal a ter On resuming his seat, he ask- ed the Shenff, Mr. Charles Stricker, what time it was! He was answered that it was five minutes of 12, He very composedly aaid, ‘ Chariey, at 12 I am ready te die.” Conversation was bere had between the clergy- man and the prisoner in referonco to his future state, during which he declared his trust ia God, and his preparation for death. Here a newspaper editor from, one of our sister cities in Kentucky, who had ar- rived too late to hear his address, applied to the prisoner for a recapitulation of what he had said. Tle talked some time with him, during which he be- came very much exhausted, and fainted, going into apasms. On recovery, the pertinacious editor con- tinued to ply his qnestions, when the enfeebled man again gave way to another paroxysm; and even after his,recovery, the impertarbable questioner continued to harass the prisoner, uutil he was out off short by the evident disinclination evinced by the unfortunate victim of this second rack. He then shook bands with all on the platform. In parting with the Sheriff he said, ‘Ah! Charley, you well know me, for we have played together when we were bovs, and I never thought you would have this duty to form; to which the Sheriff replied, “ Yes, Bob, Ihave known you for twenty years.’ The prisoner said, “Charley, make it as casy for bag you can,” and stepped forward upoa the trap- ‘The Sheriff arranged the noose around his neck, and pasted the rope over the beam above, when the prisoner raid, ‘These are’ my last words, I did not intend to kill the man, but J am now ready to i hands with the Sheriff, and asaist- le again shook Gd bigs to-pall the cop down over bia eyes A of being rostinea by the physician of the jail, as he could have done, and will be patin a vault in George- town.

Many persons of both sexes were pre- sent, but ladies predominated. Men, women and children were, however, seen hurrying away from the awful scene, and numbers coming to look om at the crowd after the execatiom was over.

There is no trath in the report of an attempt to poison himself this morning. Some other reports are equally fallacious, and the above may be regarded as true report. O'DONOGHUE IN vowrzaND. [From the Cortiend County Whig, Sept 2.) O'Donoghue, we learn, retired to couch at an early hour, and slept remarkably well through the whole night. this rnd the Sheriff en Vinitit cell found him in the attitude of prayer. At six o’clock we were permitted, through the po- liteness of the Sheriff, to attend the ceremony of celebrating mass in the presence of the ,. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Fat Cal- lean, of Oxford, assisted by another priast from Os- wego. The scene was truly affecting, and seemed to work seriously upon the mind of O'Donoghue, causing him to weep almost constantly. He seems ay penitent, and says he is prepared to meet his fe. At eleven o'clock, A. M., the unhappy man Pro- ceeded to enrobe himself, assisted by Father Callean and the Sheriff. From a glance at the prisoner, we thought he appeared more excited than during mass this morning. The mil arrived on the ground at eleven o'clock, commanded by Col. Legg. After being enrobed, a religious ceremony was performed in the cell, during which time the prison- er was calm, and expressed himself prepared to meet his fate. At Hyged's minutes past twelve, the prisoner ap- peared inthe room prepared for execution, accom- panied by the Sheriff, under Sheriff, two constables and the clergy, and after confession, took his seat a the rope. He was very pale, but unnsually calm. The room, at this time, was filled with the re- quisite number of witnesses and police: in all, num- bering about forty persons. After con‘ession, he took an affectionate farewell of his counsel, and said :—I forgive the whole world, I hope the priests will pray for me.” At twenty-five minutes past twelve, the Sheriff proceeded to place the rope around his neck and ad- Just his cap ; at this time he was much affected. At twenty-seven minutes past twelve, the dro was touched, His convulsions were very strong, an continued abont five minates. After hanging about fifwen minutes, Drs. Patter- son and Goodyear, examining physicians, pro nounced him dead. Thus ended the unhappy career of O'Donoghue. ‘The jail was guarded by the Virgil Guards, Capt. E. F. Gould; Spafford mards, Capt. Henderson; Truxton Light Guards, Capt. Pierce. The mili made @ fine appearance, and their soldicrlike depo ment reflected much credit upon themselves. There was an immense crowd of ple outside the jail, all anxious wer @ sizht of the prisoner. In the crowd we noticed a large number of women, whore curiosity was as much excited as the men’s Good order however was maintained during the exe cution and the preceeding services. O'Donoghue was born in the province of Munster, TreJand, and was 66 years old; he came to this coun- try thirty years ago, and has been a rosident of Cortland county twenty-five years. He has formerly stated that bis real name was O'Neal, and that he shot a man in Ireland, for which he fled his country and assnmed the name of O'Donoghue. This, how- Lain he denied, and said his real name was O'Dono- ne. - O'Donoghue’s remains will be taken to McLean for interment. Another Raiirond Collision in Chicago. The Chicago Tritwne of the 24 instant says :—The weatern pacreoger train on the Michigan Central [tsil- rond, came in collision yesterday morning with a son- struction train on the Iilivoia Central track neer the works of the American Car pany.

W. H. ok ) 8S pban crew, Sey hg poe ee tot sage Ac M., on inday, , On passage from Melbourne to Sydney. This vessel started from Melbourne on Fri- day, 18th instant, and having a fair wind, all on board were light bowrton ae idea of paving a 8] y passa; ey. Was progre wing at the rate of it 12 an hour up to the time of her arri at the fatal spot, which will be long re- membered by the friends of those who are no more, as wellas by those who fortunately escaped with their lives. It appears that on the Saturday night previous to the wreck, @ captaiu on board, well ac- quainted with the coast, bad cautioned those in com- mand that she was hugging the land too closely. This aivice, however, it seems was unheeded, and at the above time the passengers were awoke by the vessel running on the rocks. A scene of cousterua- tion immediately ensued by the passengers and oth- ers running about the deck, ‘The sea was thea calm, aud all might have been saved, but the captain or- dered the engineer to back her, with the intention of getting her off, which proved ineffectual; the sails were furied to allay the incessant thumping on the rocks, the commander informing all that he hoped to get her off at daybreak, it being then quite dark. At 6o’closk the svene entirely changed, a violent fe apringing up from the southeast. The pumps d been tried in the meantime, and no water ap- peared to be made. The heavy heaving ofthe vessel now increased, and water bezan to gain rapidly on the pumps; in a very shcrt time it had extinguished the engine fires, made its way int@tho steerage apartments, and appear- ances began to threaten very serious results. At this jancture the foremast was cut away, which con siderably eased the rolling of the vessel uatil she seemed in a very short time to settle Baemars on the rocks, her forepart being considerably higher than the stern. The female passengers and children that had been taken on the p to the captain's office now went to the cook's galley. At about 8 o'clock the first boat was lowered and was as speedily dashed to pieces by the breakers; tae secoud met with a similar fate, and the third was drifted away. The only chance of escape from destruction now ‘ett was by the life boat; this was drawn from the stera of the vessel to the bows, on which the majority of tl gers were clinging; into it jumped Charles Plummer, a seaman, and in this manner, with a Bs attached, it was allowed to drift to the rocks, but not before the connecting line had broken before the eyes of the anxious crowd who now stood on the bows—end then Hope withering fled, aad Mercy cried farewell. All chance of escape appearing to be cut o/f, as a last effort another line was attached to a spar, which after considerable delay, floated to within reach of the brave fellow, who landed himself on the rock. ‘To this rope was attached another, aud final: ly the hawser, which he hauled in and fastened to a rock, the other end of it being secured to the bow- sprit of the vessel, and all those who had courage enough to venture had £0 disencumber themselves of superfluous clothing, and pass themselves in a sling down the hawser to the rock, where they were drawn out of the surf by Charles Plummer, whose heroic conduct saved fifty-four souls from a watery grave. So strong and fearful, however, was the sea Taging at the time, that manya poor fellow was washed off the hawser,and perished in the sea. One, more daring than the rest, ay 4 a swim: mer, trusted to his own powers, but his fate showed how vain it was to combat with the remorseless bil- lows. The sea had by this time made fearful havoc with the vessel; the uader part of the stern had been washed away, the engine work, boilers, &c., having passed fh the bottom. Now came the laat ncene of all. ¢ billows were running moun- tains high, and breaking with tremendous force over her stern ; by cne of these her quarter-deck was se- parated from the fore part ; presently another sea split asunder the forecastle, and nothing now re- mained of the Monumental City save the floating timber, with which the sea was covered. At the time the separated about a dozen persons were standing on her bows—the doctor sittiag on the bowsprit, waiting an opportunity to descend the pices pbc tahetit of them, Ly caped—all perished in the foaming surge. The fifty- four who were fortunately saved had now to wae through a strong eurrent from the rocks to a small island, where fires were lighted, and there they remained until Tuesday mid day, when the life- boat, with ninetecn of the passen gory and crew, made for the main land, not, ever, without considerable danger, for some time before landing the boat was filled with water to the gunwales by the heavy surf. The next morning an attempt was made to get the remainder over irom the island, but it foand to be impossible to get the boat through the surf; therefore, drenched with wet, and with only a pound of flour each for provisions, the nineteen started for Twofold Bay, where they arrived in a most destitute. and miserable condition on the of Kriday, 20th instant, after encountering many hardships, such as being forced to subsist partly on shell fish, and to slecp on the wet ground in wet clothing; a of them, however, were met not fur from the by Mr. Allen, to whom notice had been given Le Tas of the party who had arrived at Twofold y a short time before. This gentleman with great kindness brought them provisions, and Icd them on to his own house, where he lodged them for the night in the moet kind and hospitable manner; which act, we have no doubt, will cause his name and family to be remembered long by those who were the reci- pients of their generosity. The rest of the party who remained on the island construoted a raft, by which they all got rafe to the main land; they reached Twotold Bay on Sunday, the 22d. The following is the list of those who were saved : OREW. Captain W. H. Adams, commander; Edward Van- sice, mate; W. V. Cutter, second mate; William Duncan, chief engineer; W. H.

Mr. W. H.

He adds: ‘it seems to me thatthe writera of these reports would have the public think that I caused the loss of my ship inteutionally, or did not know the position of my ship. I bog of you to make known to the public that on the night of the loss of the Monumental City | judged her to be at miduight a safe and sufficient distance from the coast, at which time I left the deck in charge of my chief oificer, a man in whom I have always had implicit confidence, with instructions to steer the course which I consid- ered a safe and proper one, after passing Ram Head, which was in sight at the time, but from some error, or cause to me unknown, I was awakened by my ship striking on the rocks about half past three in the morning. I used my utmost endeavors to save every person and facilitate their getting on shore by the bearer, I did not leave my ship and leave my passengers to get on shore as they could, but remain- ed on board assisting until the remaining portion of the wreck showed strong indications of soon going to pieces. I believe there were but four or five got on shore afier me, when the henge bin took place, causing the loss of the remaining souls on board.” Tux SreAMER ATLANTIC, SUNK IN Lake Exre.— Aw everything connected with the attempted raising of this steamer is of toterest to a large portion of our crti- zens, we give the following account of the LoSge none thus far, which ¥0 take from the Buflulo Rough Notes ot Tuesday, by whom it was obtained frem a person en gaged at work on the derrick —The boats employed in the work left Duitslo ¢n Monday morning.

Mr. Clayton, "who succeeded Mr. Buchanan, waa informed oa good au thority of thu proceeding, and immediately resolved to place our government right by a full reply to Seaor Rora. The note of the Mexican Minister, daaaswer- ed, was eminently calculsted to disparage the cha- racter of the American government in the view of every foreign court to which he had caused it to be transmitted. The rep y of Mr. Ciaytun, #ritten as soon as he learned these facts, was considered a tri umphant vindication of the American side of the question ; at any rate, it silenced the able and e# tunable Minister of Mexico; nor has the Mexiosu overnment ever since uttered a word of disappro- tion of it, or the principles of public and interna- tional Icw contained in it. A copy of Mr. Clayton's note was also placed in the hands of those foreiga tuinisters to whom Mr. Rosa's had been commauk cated, and we understand that, oy all who read the reply, the Mexican protocol was considered a dead letter. It is singular, however, that, so far as we can discover, this correspondence was not placed before the puolic by the journals of the day. It was communicated to ‘Congress at the opening of the session of 1849, but it was several weeks before the two houses preanieds and the voluminous doou- ments accompanyir, em were s0 tardil, printed that the pu plic had fornotion them before they isaued from the Congressional press. The Draw briage Sto) eLa w in Connecticut, (From the New Haven Courier, Sept 3 } The section of the railroad law of the last aeasion Tegeltieg. all railroad trains to stop at drawbridges and railroad (not turnvike) intersections, went into prea on the Ist inst., and as a matter of course 1 the railroad companies in the State have com plied with it. The measure will throw an additional protection around the traveliing pubiic, but whether tae public will thavk the legislature for its caution, ia yiew of the consequent loss of time, is a matter to bs de- cided by experience. The New York road has stopped ita trains at each of its five drawbrid; since the Norwalk accident last spring, and travellers bave become accustomed to the delay; but on the other roads of the State the experiment is a new one, and there will, of course, be some grumbling. The railroad commissioners may, however, grant a licouse ‘to apy company to pass draws or crossings without stopping—a power which will not be exercised, we imagine, unless there is a universal demand for it from the travelling public. ‘The new law is very severe in its penalties upon engine men and ‘other employes of railroad oom- panies, through whose carelessness or miamanage- ment an accident occurs, declaring them gullty of felony, and inflicting a fine and an imprisonment, which may extend to ten years. Tux Exriosion at WaRreina.—The Wheeling Gozette of the 30th ult., says:—The awful accident which occurred on the w! yesterday was one of those terrific everts that can neither be foreseen or entirely guarded against. Powder was being re- moved from a boat to be loaded ona wagon for Ohio, and we understand there were fitteen to twenty kegs ona dray. It is supposed that one keg rolled from the dray, and by some means became ignited, when all, ap ly, but one were ex- ied, sending the industrious and highly respecta- le young man who was driving the day, Mr. Wolas- ton Kim! Hy, instantly into eternity. His olothss were oles y torn off, his brains blowa out, and bis body horribly disfigured. Another drayman, Mr. Shanley, was Meare nzed, and some thirty or forty persons were knocked down. The dray was entirely smashed to pieces, and the hair burnt from the horse. One carrisge was also burntup. The steam- boat Salem was considerabl: ess in her pilot house and upper works. But greatest damage to property was in windows. There was scarcely a window on Water street that was not shattered. We should think the Sprigg House suffered the most damage of any, most of the front windows being icere or less broken. We should judge the entire loss by breaking windows and sashes was at least $2,000. The large win¢ow of Messrs. Warden’ & Edwards,on Main street, some forty rods distant, was shattered to pieces. (Lhe glass was three-eighths of an inch thick. Devaprv Accrpent at East Atsany.—A dis tressing accident occurred at East ae, last even- ing. A man, who gave his name as James Eizo, aged about thirty-five years, arrived in tne afternoon by the Hudson river railway from New York ci'y, and put up at H. Godfrey's Boston Hotel. He drank a few titves during the course of the evening, ard about 103 o'clock retired to his room, in the third story of the honse. At about 114 o'clock the pro- [tly the house as well as several inmates of the ar-room were startled by the falling of some heavy object at the entrance of the door leading tothe bar room, and the ofa mas ifin deep dis treas. U, running to the door they found the lodger Eizo lying upon some plank at the door.

Eigo has a wife and oypaf living in Canada, and a father doing business in New York, who has beea telegrapbed for. How the man could have fallen the distance of three stories without killing him ia- stantly is certainly wonderfal. It is thought that he was laboring under an attack of mania a piu wheu he jumped ont of the window. His story is, thathe thought some men were at the door endea- voring to getin to murder him, and he jumped out cd the window to escape—Albany (ransrvipt, pt. 2.
