Henry Pollock and Mr.. Joshua Lupton, in which
Mr. Lupton was quite severely INJURED la the

him severe blow on the mouth, and he did so
Jumped back aud threw his cane to the f0nr. Pol

we're oiow on the head. The parties then cnchcd
when gentlemen interfered to part them. Lupton

the celebrated jig dancer, takes a benefit at the
Continental. Ia his peculiar line he has few or no
rivals. Mr.. Thomas Frazier, the noted tenor

be excellent. The many friends Of Mr.. Boyd will
no doubt be in attendance, and make this benefit
really OF some account.
ACcIPENT.--An accident of quite painful char
acter occurred about half past o'clock yester-
day, IN the rear Of the house the corner of Eu-
taw and Hoffman streets. 1t appears that la
borer named Michael Herman was engaged at
work in the yard, when a brick wall fell upon him,
causing severe internal injury. He was removed
to his hame, No. % Ross street, where the services
OF physician were availed of.
CoEREcTION.-The statement that the Federal
Government had made arrangements fer quartering
troops In the piano factory of Messrs. Newman
B' cS d Sons, corner of Oregon aud Lombard
streets, appears to have been without foundation
as these gentlemen say OveTtures have ever been
made to them upon the subject, nor will hey, under
any circumstances, receive overtures of such a
nature.
