An important case, in which heavy damages were involved, came to an end In the Lehigh County Court, at Alien town, on Thursday cvcnlngof last week. Tho plaintiff was David Williams and tlie defendant Henry Fulmer, both-rich slate operators of Slatlngton. Williams operated a school slate factory, the power being furnished by a turbine water wheel, run by tbo Lehigh river. Fulmer operated a largo slate quarry a short instance away and dumped bis rubbish Into the river. Gradually Williams' power gave out, because, as ho claimed, of Fulmcr's rubbish In the river cutting off his supply of water. Williams had to Introduce steam power, at an annual expense of $15,000. Ho then brought suit to recover damages from Fulraer for tho loss of water power, contending that bis property was dam aged to the extent of $1,500 and that to remove the rubbish would cost $25,000. Tbo defense was that by act of Assombly the Lehigh river Is made a navigable stream and that there can be no propeity In tho water of a navigable river. The Court held that the plalntllfVould only . - . .. . .. icvuuT uuuiugos ior ine loss 01 tuo water power above the low watoi mark.

Mrs. Elizabeth Hcaumont Colllngs, widow of Samuel H. Collngs, who was ntouo time distinguished in Luzerne county as a journalist and politician, died rather suddenly at Scranlon, on Thursday night of last week. Mrs. Ceilings was tho eldest of the nine children of Andrew Hcaumont, of Wilkcsbarrc, all of whom achieved distinction. Ditring'licr. icsidcnco in Washington with her father she met all tliettitesmen prominent in'the thirties,' and her autograph album contains bits of sentiment from President James K. Polk and Andrew Jackson and a poem of four stanzas by John CJuiney Adams, besides the autographs and good wishes of scores of other names well known in the pohltical history of the country. After her return from Washington to Wllkesb.uro Miss Hcaumont was one of the leading society women and finally married. Samuel P. Colling. President Pioice appointed Mr. Collings Consul to Tangier.

Vincent, a member of Gus "Villiann theatrical company, w-.u com ing out of tlie Aca Jcmy of Mttsie.at that place, from rehearsal sho was arrested as tho missing Delia Willlann. She was taken before a Justice ot the Peace and confronted Mrs. Curry. Tho lattci thought Mrs. Vincent's fijitrc compared witli that of her abjeonded daughter-in-law, but sba had no cye-glastcs with her and could not say positively. She went home, procured her spectacles and was still in doubt. Mrs. Vincent vainly-; profited that she never had a child and in liis thirty years she ha.l been on the J .s'agu that was the first time sho bad been In Pottsvillc. Finally Mrs. Curry elosi ly.examined the actress' eyes. The optics of Mrs. Curry, Jr., were brown. Mrs. Vincent fortunately lad blue eyes. Hie Justice ordered her discharge. Not to Haw:, Dot 093 to Jail- In June last JIchacl Rolway, a Hun ari.in, was convicted of murder ia tho first degree, for shootlna and killinc Tliomai J. Hogan, tlie Lehigh Valley station agent at Penn HaVcn.nine miles above Mauoh Chunk. The shooting occurred in the station building and was apparently without motive. A new- trial was granted by the Court and the second trial commenced on Monday,ISth Inst., an.l ended Fiiday witli a verdict of murder In the second degree. The strong point of defense was lint prior to tho shooting tho prisoner frequently doclared that lie wa3 the owner of Penu Haven Junction, telegraph, locomotives and all, an.l this was proven by eight or nine witnesses, leading to the belief that be was a monominiac cm that subject and that probably accounted for tho snlden exasperation when Hogan order ed him out and tlie shooting which Im mediately followed He was sentenced to eleven years and nine months in the Eastern Penitentiary. Not Liable for Icy X'aTemButs- The case of Hunter vs. Wan.11n.1ker, just decided by the supreme Court, bears upon a subject of Interest at this time the liability of propel ty-owncrs for tbo slippery condition' of their pavements. I he plaintiff was walking along Thir teenth street, Philadelphia, on the pave uieiit fronting on Wanamaker's store, which was in a very slippery condition from snow and rain. She slipped and, falling, struck the back of her neck near tlie base of the brain upon the edge of an iron ccll.ir-door which covered an area belonging to the store, and which had been left open about one foot and propped up witli a can. The main question in the case was as to whether the slippery condition of the pavement or the condition of tho irou cellar-door was tbo proximato caute of the accident. The lower Court thought that under these facts the defendant was not liable for plaintiff's injuriesaud entered a non suit. A writ of error having been taken to llio Supi erne Court, that tribunal, in the decision refeircd lo.has just atllrined the judgment. Tbe Company Hot Responsible The case of William Tice against tho old Uangor Slate Company for $10,. 000 damages was tried before Judge Albright, at Alleutown, and resulted In a non-suit being entered.
