FATAL ACCIDENT-FALLo OF A BRICK BUILDING
A building, on street, between Fourth and
Fifth, on the north side fell to the ground yes
terday morning. and buried beneath the ruins
woman named Sarah McCabe, who was ofcourse
crushed to death by the mass of material by
which she was surrounded. The building be-
longed to Mr.. Pershbaker. 1t was over one hun
dred feet long, and some twenty feet high, being
a two story building The first floor was occu-
pied by Mr.. AUDI the dry goods merchant, and
was well stocked with valuable goods. The up
per story was occupied by Dr. Hackett, dentist;
Mr.. Dickman, daguerreotypist and DR.. Charles
Burrell and his family For several days past
workmen have been engaged in digging cellar
on the lot adjoining on the east, and had sunk
some six feet below the foundation of the build
ing, leaving the earth undsturbcd Immediately
beneath the walls
At about quarter past seven O'Clock after
the men had commenced work, and as the brick
layers were about completing the wall with
which they were "underpinning," the centre of
the building at point from VIII ich a large syc-
amore stump had been removed, they discover
ed that the earth was giving way, and the build
ing was settling. The alarm was given, and
all the workmen in the cellar had time to es-
cape. DIR. Burrell, his wife, three children, and
Mrs. McCabe who was living with them, were
all in the back part of the second story. Mrs.
burrell anu ner Cnlluren reached Inc Dack SCalF-
way before the roof or walls came down, and
though she was precipitated to the ground and
considerably bruised, she sustained no serious
injury. DIR. B. and the children escaped unin-
jnred Mr.. Aud was on the opposite side of the
street, about to cross over for the purpose of
opening his store. DIR. Hackett had not arrived
at his rooms. and Mr.. Dickman had left the
place a few minutes before. Mrs. McCabe was
unable to escape, and was taken from the ruins
in about an hour, having been instantly killed
no doubt, as she was badly crushed and mutila-
ted.
The front portion of the building, about one
fourth in length, did not fall Those who wit
messed the occurrence say that the earth began
to slide out, and the wall settled quite slowly at
first, the base sliding out till the brick work
cracked some ten feet up, when all came down
with crash. 1t is difficult to estimate at pres
ent the amount of damage sustained by the DIFF
ferent parties, but believe the following esti-
mate to be nearly correct: DR.. Hackett 5000;
DR.. Burrell, $1,000; Mr.. Dickman, 81 200; MFR.
Aud, $4,000, and Mr.. Pershbaker, $1,000

of February 18th, says: "We announced yes
terday, the presentation in the Senate, of the
credentials Of Hon. VIM. NJ. Gwin, as Senator
from California, to fill the vacancy occasioned
by the expiration of his own term. The return
to the Senate of this veteran Senator, and eff
cient representative of the interests of Califor-
mia, produced quite sensation amongst his old
friends and associates in that body. He was
warmly greeted on all sides upon his reelection,
California could not be represented by one

The OLD CENT.-The cent was proposed in
1882 by Robert Norris the great financier of
the revolution, and was named by Jefferson,
two years later. 1t bore then the head of Wash
ington on one side, and a chain of thirteen links
on the other. The French revolution soon Gre
ated rage for French ideas in America, which
put ON the cent, instead of the head of Washing
ton, the head of the Goddess of Liberty--a
French liberty, with neck thrust forward and
flowing locks. The chain on the reverse was
replaced by the olive wreath of peace. But the
French liberty was short lived, and so was her
portrait on our cent. The present staid classic
fashion about thirty or forty years ago, and her
finely chiseIed Grecian features have been but
slightly altered by the lapse of time.

Horrid state OF Affairs In San Francisco.

HOfriu Stntc OF AunlrS In san francisco
Coroner Kent received information on Satur-
day evening, says the San Francisco Sum- that
Chinese woman, an inmate of one of the FL
thest dens of immortality on Pacific street, had
taken a large dose of opium for the purpose of
self-destruction, and was in a dying condition.
1t is by no means unusual for the abandoned
Chinese women to commit suicide, when they
fall sick, to avoid death by starvation, as not
the slightest sympathy or charity is extended
to them by their companions in guilt. 1t is q
strange commentary on human nature, and
shows how thoroughly selfish is the depraved
and untutored mind. 1t is also fearful to con-
template the existence of so terrible practice
in the heart of city boasting enlightenment
and moral institutions. 1t certainly seems to
us, that some remedy can be devised, and some
plan adopted by which Chinese can be more
thoroughly brought within the active influence
of our laws than at present. But the worst part
of the whole matter is to follow. The woman
died, and was carried to the Coroner's Office by
Mr.. Kent, who then applied to number of ply
sicians to make post mortem examination; a
proposition which was respectfully declined, on
the ground that their time, service and talents
were worth the necessities of life and they could
not afford to serve the county for nothing. I'm
pressed with the great responsibility resting on
his hands, Coroner Kent then applied to DR..
/. H. Rowell, making himself responsible to that
gentleman for all just demands. DR.. Rowell
then made post mortem examination, and dis
covered unmistakeable evidences Of violence
having been exercised towards the unfortunate
victim; and the stomach, which was unusually
dstended, was given to an expert chemist for
the purpose of analyzing its contents
Coroner Kent then made several attempts to
obtain competent Chinese interpreter, for the
purpose of elciting such testimony as could
fasten the guilt of this undoubted murder on
the proper parties; but they, too very scnsiby
declined serving, unless some assurance were
given that they should be paid for SO doing.
The result is simply this: we have now come
to such pass, that murder by poison, or even
by violence, under certain restrictions can be
committed with impunity in our midst, provided
the victim be not prominent person in the
community, and unless something should trans
pire prior to the death, tending to criminate the
the parties as all avenues to subsequent elu-
cidation of all the facts are virtually closed by
the extreme poverty of this unfortunate city
and county, arising from non-payment Of
taxes by our wealthiest citizens.

SENATOR BRoDEMcK.-Th New York Spirit
of the Times says:

SENATOR BRoDERICK.-The New York Spirit
of the Times says:
"The new event of great local interest since
our last, was that which ushered in, on Friday
evening last, by the booming of one hundred
guns These loud-mouthed heralds were fired
in the park to announce and celebrate the arri-
val in this city of the Hon. David G. Broderick,
who after an absence of seven years from this
city, returned from his adopted State of Cali
fornia invested with a dignity scarcely second
to that of President of the republic. 1t is
scarcely necessary for us to say that this is an
event we'll worthy of remark. 1t teaches the
lesson, how much can be accomplished by per-
severence, integrity. and tai ent, even when un-
accompanied by the help of fortune, or assisted
in its toilsome task by single grain of luck.
Mr.. Broderick has given us one of the highest
examples of this kind of meritorious success
ever presented in this country, and the Mayor,
when receiving him in the name of the city,
very properly said that he felt proud to re-
ceive him, and to hold him up as an example
for the young men of New York to initiate.
We predict for Mr.. Broderick useful and in
Hucntial career in the United States Senate"

Reason why this Machine is Universally
Preferred over All Others.

Because it is the only Sewing Machine in
the world ever invented, so constructed as to
fully meet the demands of families for general
use.
2 It is very simple and is acver liable to get
out Of order.
Itmakesa seam which will not rip, though
every third stitch is cut
1t is not Shuttle Machine.
1t sews with two needles, making any
length stitch desired.
6 Ii sews from two ordinary spools, and
thus all trouble at winding thread is avoided;
while the same Machine can be adapted at
pleasure, by mere change Of spools, to all
varieties of work.
z The same Mlchine runs silk or linen
thread, and common spool cotton, with equal
facility.
This Machine will sew in the sleeves of a
coat with the same ease and ficility that it
sews straight seam.
8 This Machine can be run to make one
Thousand five hundred stitches per minute.
10 The seams are as elastic as the most elias
tic fabric so that it is free from all liability to
break in washing, ironing or otherwise.
IL The stitches made by this machine are
more beautiful than any other made either by
hand or machine.
The price of these Machines at Office in New
York, range from SIS TO $50: an additional
charge of $40 only is made or each machine
over New York prices at Office in Nashville, to
defray expenses of imDOrtation, &c, to Nash
vile. r. II. BROCKWAY, Sec'y,
