It was sought yesterday morning by Coroner Young to unravel the mystery surrounding the death of Andrew McUraig, the man who fell or was pushed from a jourth story window of the teuement house 1,369 Third avenue, on Sunday night last. Captain Gunner, of the Nineteenth precinct, made every effort to procure testimony to show how MeCratg got out the window, but was unsuccessful. Hugh Smith and his wife, who occupy we Apartments, and with whom deceased boarded, are persons of intemperate habits and could not or Would not make any satisfactory explanution; their evidence was conficting in some material points, Which satisfied that elther ove or the other of them deviated irom the truth, One witness testified that deceased was subject to fits, more particularly when he was under the influence of liquor, and it is with- tn the bounds of possibility that he was seized with a fit after he had retired, jumped up, opened the Window and blinds and fell out. Below will be found a brief synopsis of the evidence and the ver- aict of the jury.

About midway between St, Jobns harbor and the bay the wind sprang up lively, and all the canvas Was set upon the schooner in order to run clear of the land before nightfall. The wind gradually tm- creased until it was found necessary to snortem sail, Several squalls struck the schooner, and every soul on board, though imured to the most severe weather, grow much alarmed. As the stores became more furious all canvas was taken omf the vessel, and she ran for about an hour before the wind under bare poles, Even then the storm overcame her, and the order to lay to was gives. Another fearful alarm was raised at this polat, for the wind was sweeping directly against the cragson tne lee shore, whither the schooner was drifting a& the rate of two miles an hour.
