Importast Information to Builders
Aud Owskiib o Keal Estate. A case was tnod
on Ihurscluy, in the Hupreino Court at Mew York,
whicn sceiiiB to decide some important questions
both of law and ot practico w fell are well worth the
consideration of the legal profes-ion, and also tlioo
engartd in publio improvement, lue facts briully
stated are a follows:
Valentine Fink vs. Frank Lyons, Simon Donna,
Joseph Stern, l'hilip Mem, und iSolomon Nord
inger Ibis action is brouiriit to recover the sum
of 1110,000 damages, alleged to have been sustained
by the plaiutuf under tbe lolioiving circumstances i
llio plaintill' Fink, is tho owner ot a lot and three
story brick buiidina ereoiod tUereon. The deloud
ants, Simon Donnu, Joseph and l'hilip Stern, and
fro omon Nordlingor, In JSovember, 184, composed
tbe firm ol Douau, Stern & Co., distillers, doing
busmoss adjoining tho piaintiirs bouse. From tlie
pit aainps we learn that tho lirm above named were
tbe lessees of tbe building ; tliut tbe delendant, Frank
Lyons, was a builder, employed by tbe firm to con
struct the building for the purpose of a distillery. In
ooing so tbe plaintiff cluint Hint tho rear wall of bis
building was very greatly injured ; that the builder,
Lyons, under tbe direction of the firm, took away
larpe quantities ot brick and mortar belonging to
planum s wan, rarocuiaiiy tuo rear one, which uiey
ntar.y Destroyed; that, in consequence of these acts,
plaintiff's bouse, in some portions thereof bad bo
come untenantable; that a tltte bad been destioyed,
and beavy motals and other improper substances
were placed against bis wail, thereby causing them
to separate and render Ins building an nnsafo, un
tenantable, and dangerous one. The plaintiff con
cludes his complaint by claiming damages to the
amount of $10,000
The defenuants appeared fcy separate attorneys
and counrol. the answer of tho builder, Lyons, is a
general denial. The firm ot Denau, Stem & Co.
answer first by a general denial, and then say that
tbey bad no title or interest in tbe property or lease.
During tbe trial the presidinx Justice said that in
that court hcrealter tho rule must be enforced, that
one counsel on a side be allowed to examine and
cross-examine a witness. Ibis decision tor a short
tame created considerable ieolinsr, for the builder ap
peared by one lawyer and the firm by another. The
two counsel consulted for a time, but thoy were una
ble to consolidate tbeir operations as to tbe ques
tioning ot witnesses.

the louadation of the new Court House at Sixth and
(Jhtsnut streets has beea commenced, bat the woik
. of digging out will not be commenced, we nuder
stand, nntil Councils meet again, iu consequence of
tne committee having the work in band being de-
, (irons ot changing the original plan. The coutraot
was awarded tor the erection of a building, with lis
greatest length fronting on Sixth street, bat it is
new proposed to reverse it, and have it to run across

Cokstitctioral ConstJHFTios. From trust
worthy data it bas been estftnatod that at loast one
fourth ot all who are born In the United Siatos have
at birth lungs in a tuberoulous condition, aud, in
consequence, are predisposed to Pulmonary Com
plaints; yet it Is equally well established that this
predisposition need not end in Consnmption,
Asthma, or any other lung dlsens, if due oaro and
watcbfulnoss be observed, and all excltnr causos
lire promptly treated as tbey ariso. It h In just such
cases J)r, Jcynt't Expectorant exorcises its moit
beneficial effects, and bas produced tho largest pro
portion of Us cures. Besides promptly removing
Cougbs and Co ids, which, when left to themselves,
are tbe most common causes of tuberculous develop
ment, tins slandard remedy allays any infbmmition
which may exist, and by promoting easy expectora
tion cleanses the lungs of tho substancos which clog
(hem up, and which ropidlv destroy when Buffered
to remain. Prepared only at No. 212 Chasnut

MAcnfNERT rr.nrKCTBD In all tho wldo range
Of bumun inventions tho genius of man tin nover
been more uselully callod into operation than in
brinping to perfection a durable, cheap, clllcient.and
pimple Sewing Machine. Applying these essential
qualities of a good Sowing Machine to tho Florence,
sold at No. 020 Chosnut street, we consider that its
projectors have a portect right to claim for it, in the
highest dPniro, simplicity wllh durability, and the
ten her quality of doing a greater range ol work
than any other compoiitor, whilst It can bo evily
understood by ail. Itesides embodying all tun
advnmiicts ol Jot her machines, the Florenoe possesses
many improvements over any and all of them
such as making four different kinds ot stitches, a
lelf-Rdjnsting tonsion adapted to all kinds of work,
nover tailing to give tho amount of tension
always in exact proportion to tbe sice of the
I obbin, the peculiar method of taking up the slack
thread, the excellent and exclusive fealnro ot adjust
ing the length of the stitch, and the direction oi tho
same, denominated the revemible feed-motion, which
enables the operator, by simply turning a thumb
screw, to have the work rim iitlior to the right or
left, to btay any part ot the seam or fas too the ends
ot seams without turning tbe fabric A oaretul
examination ot the construction and working ol the
Florence Machine will convinco any one of its su
periority, and we woo d advise our readers who are
desirous of bnving ujrift that will be most acceptable
to the wife, daughter, aud iriond, to bny a F'orenon
Sewing Machine a gil'r of beamy and utility that
will last a lifetime. Every machine sold is war
ranted to give satisfaction, and instructions given
without charge. Call early to secure prompt de
livery, as tho Company are now behind their
orders.
