every person who presented Liberal ticket. An in

presented himself the ballot box and offered Lbe-
raj ticket One of the opposition having, no doubt,
received his cue from Jacob Ackcr, (who was stand

his vote. An inspector remarked that he had known
him to be resident of the ward for the last nine

= Dreadful Calamity Several Lives LOST
Early last summer, many OF our readers are
aware, a large mass Of clay burst from the
hill on the East section Of the first ward Of
this city, followed by gushing stream of
water, and doing no other injury than cover
ing u large portion of ground at the base with
the bowels Of the hil. Last evening about z
o'clock, similar occurrence took place on
the same spot, but, we regret to say, greater
in extent and exceedingly fatal in its conse
qucnces. An avalanche of clay came tunb-
ling from an eminence Of nearly 500 feet
moving down the base Of The hill TO level land
& then continued from the impulse ii receiv-
ed to the distance of fabont 800 feet, covering
up acres of ground, accompanied with o
cataract Of water and sand, which kept up a
terrible roar. The mass moved along with
great rapidiiy, carrying with it two stables
aud three dwelling houses and crushing them
aud their contents in thousands Of pieces
The stables and horses er1 moved to dis
tance of over 200 feet into an hollow on the
corner of Washington and Fourth. streets.
The three dwelling houses destroyed were
Of light structure, and one occupied by Mr..
John Grace, another by Mrs. Lcsvensworth,
and third by Mrs. Warner, the last Of
which was fortunately vacant at the time Of
the calamity In Grace's house was himself
and wife and little boy The f,co former were
eriricaied from the ruins, dead, and the boy
was taken out alive, very little hurt, bare
footed and bare headed, the building having
been shattered in thousand pieces-which

ing full view of the facts, and for applying
correctly the principles of the law. The case
was summed up yesterday afternoon. in q
most lucid and satisfactory manner, by Ch,ei
Justice Shnw,and delivered to the Jury. They
were instructed, in case they should decide
against the defendants. to award, not yindic.
tive damages, but reasonable reinune Grafton
under the circumstances of the case. for the
injury sustained by each Of the six pointiffs.
- Boston Patriot Of Friday
The Jury yesterday morning rendered a
verdict in the six cases which have been on
trial for tho preceding eight days, in favor of
thc plain'ifs; awarding them various sums
according to the degree Of injury sustained
by each, amounting to $9,350, and making,
with $4,000 awarded by compromise, or ar
bitraiiop, to Lieutenant Russ, the sum of
ISIl,350. ....
From the novelty ofthe case, and the inter
est which it excites, we have taken measures
to procure report Of the charge Of the learn
ed Judge. in delivering the case to the jury,
presenting very clear and ineligible view
Of the principles Of law applicable to the
case. We are obliged, however, to defer the
publication Of it to our next paper Patriot

week or more, as pleasant, though somewhat
colder, as any we have during the autumnal
