FALL OF A 110 t SE IN HOLBORN. Shortly
before eight o'clock last evening groat excitement was oc-
cedrined in the immediate neighbourhood of Little Turn-
stilq by what at first appeared the fall of several
homes, bearing with them their inmates. Whim the dust
had sorinwhat subsided it was found that the premises
High Holborn, had fallen iu. It was known that Mr.
Prim, a tailor and clothier, the proprietor of the premises,
employed about 20 persona upon the establishment, and
leoninee were at once set on foot, when it was ascertained
that every person had reaped without injury. It appears
that a peculiar cracking noise sae heard at an early boar
in the morning, of which no notice was taken, end daring
the day nothing more than usual occurred. hut shortly be-
fore the time above-mentioned a crucial)* noise was heard
be some of the men, who at over cautioned their fellow
siorkpeople, but hail scarcely done so whoa tLo whole of
the four doors fell with a fearful crash. The front wall of
the house was left standing.

Amos. Fort 131.strnmt.—At Nottingham spring
amine, on Monday and yeaterday, an action, " Hoyle
v. Ward," was tried. The plaintiff is the per-
petual curate of Wellon, Notts, awl sought to
recover nominal damages from the defendant, lately
hie &errant, for defamation of charavter. It appears
that the girl had accused the plaintiff of entering hur bed-
room on the night of the 94th of October last, sod having
criminal intercourse with her against her will. The
evidence of the girl, and of throe to whom she bad told
her story, was of a very scandalous character, and, if sub-
stantiated, would suffice to ruin the plaintiti'e character.
In coneequence of the report, the pm ishioners had absented
themselves from church, and the bishop of the diocese had
demanded an investigation. It appeared that the conduct
of the girl bad not been very creditable, as she had not told
her mother of the alleged outrage until three or four weeks
after it was said to have occurred. After bearing evidence
awl counsel at great length, the jury returned a verdict for
the plaintiff, damages.
