He told Coroner Horton that John McTamney and Kelly, the deceased, were at him at tho same time. McTamney caught him about the neck and both went down on their knees. Kelly, meanwhile was "pegging" him about the head. It was at this time that he cut McTamney in the left thigh, which made him release his hold, and then he rushed upon Kelly.

He was very contradictory in his statements and it was evident he was manufacturing a good deal of the story he told. He manifested a good deal of sorrow for his children and several times alluded to them. His wife visited him, but her emotions, were not as might be expected, and she seemed to upbraid him forthe trouble he had brought on her and his. She inquired as to the probability of his being hung, but was told that at the worst by the recent law nothing more could be done than to imprison him for life, she manifested great relief, as did the accused. He was taken for safe keeping to the Jail in Raymond street, where he now lies.

He seems to be in the most wretched condition of mind. The prisoner was dressed in a much worn suit of black cloth and wore a Kossuth hat. He does not look liko a naturally vindictive man is about thirty years of age, and rather below the medium height. He is a native of Cornwall, England, where his father was one of the coast guard. In 1S48 he went to live in the north part of Ireland, near Derry, and worked about there until about three years ago, principally as a carpenter, when he came to this country.

He was married in Derry six years ago. Upon his arrival hero he worked first in Sbinwcll's white lead factory, at tho foot of Gold street, Brooklyn, but the work not agreeing with him, he obtained a situation in A. T. Stewart store, New York. This situation he gave up to take care of his wife, who was sick, and for a short time thereafter he was out of employment, save three months ago he obtained a situation in the store of Clafiin, Mellon No.

Officers Maloy, Farrell and Gay nor, of the 2d Precinct, discovered four suspicious looking characters in front of Mr. Sterabold's dry goods store, No. 98 Main street, this morning between the hours of one and two o'clock.

The officers separated quietly as possible and took up positions so as to cut off the retreat of the suspected burglars, whom they made no attempt to interrupt in their operations. "When the coast was clear one of the officers made a survey of the premises and found one of the shutters forced open with a chisel, which was found upon the person of one of the prisoners. The whole gang were captured and conveyed to the Station House. They call themselves Irishmen, but one of them speaks with an English accent. They answer to the description of new importations, commonly called greenhorns, and smell of the ship.

The parties to this action aro Georgo II. Fuller vs. CelestinoW.

Fuller. The ohargo is that of adultery on the part of the wife. The parlies were married in 1S69, and lived togethor but a fow months. Mr. Fuller is head salesman in a largo Importing house in Now York, with an income of perhaps $2,000 a vcar.

Mrs. Fuller is the daughter of a highly respectable' gentleman of Brooklyn. They lived after their marriage in "Williamsburgh; and afterwards removed to No. Poplar street, W. D.

On tho 2d of April, Mrs Fuller says her husband charged her with unfaithfulness to him and requested her to leave him; she loft and wen' to reside with her friends. Mr. Fuller, In the document before the Court, gives a different version of the affair, lie denies having told her to leave, and says tlioy lived happily together up to the 2d of April, and that on that day Mrs. Fuller absented herself without his knowledge, lie was then in bed sick and unable to get up. After sho bad left, Mr.

Fuller heard some very ugly stories, it is alleged, of bis wife's doings in the boarding house. Sho came back a few days afterwards fur her clothes, and with her husband's permission, she packeil them up in several trunks; it was too late to remove them the day they were packed up, and the trunks were left there that night. It is alleged that Mr. F. opened litem and obtained possession of a quantity of letters, from ho learned, as alleged, several items of information by no means welcome to a husband.

In the original complaint it was charged substantially that before her marriage she was encicnte that she went up to some placo in tho interior of the State to disguise the disagreeable fact from her husband, alleging that acting on the advice of her physician, it was necessary to absent herself from her liege lord for a short time. Upon motion of her counsel, this charge in the complaint has been stricken out and is not now before the Court. On a motion for alimony, the case was referred to a Iieferce, and a week, we believe, was recommended as a proper allowance, but the report has not yet been confirmed. On Saturday a motion for possession of the letters was made by Mrs. Fuller's counsel, which was resisted by counsel for the husband.

The Judge granted the motion but afterwards granted a court order staying proceedings. The motion was argued at length and ably, by Mr. Van Colt on the part of the wife, aud Mr. Plaice for the husband. Mrs.

Fuller is said to be a very lovely woman, in the language of a person who saw her, as "pretty as a picture." The case will excite a good deal of interest when it comes up, which it probably will in tho January term. The following are Mr. Plaice's points in opposition to Mr. Van Cott's motion for the letters 1. The petition shows affirmatively upon its faeo that the letters sought to be discovered have no relation whatever to the subject matter of the action, It alleges that the letters were written and existed before the marriage of the parties; they cannot therefore relate to the adultery charged in the complaint; and as this is the only issuo formed by the pleadings to be tried in this action, nothing contained in the petition can be material, nor even admissablc for the purpose.

All the matters and allegations which those letters could prove or disprove have been stricken out of the complaint on motion of the defendant. 2. The petition should state the contents of the letters or documents sought to be discovered, so as to enable tho Court to determine whether or not they are material. (Iloyt vs. The American Ex.

Bank, Iloward, 69 Same vs. some, 1 Duer, Cui.) 1. Neither at law nor in equity has a partv a right to make a general search or examination for evidence among the books and papers of his adversary to allow such an indefinite search would lead to great abuses, and be a judicial sanction to a dangerous, vexatious and impertinent meddling with the private business and affairs of another. (Galeswortby vs. Gorman, 9 Eng.

Law and Eq. A party has a right to know the case of his opponent, but not the evidence by which that case is to be supported. (Llenelm vs. Badely, 1st 4. A discovery of books and papers will not be ordered where the party can obUiin them by subpoena sub ducete cum, and an examination as a witness of the party having custody of such papers, cither before or on the trial.

(Van Zandt vs. Cobb, 12 Iloward. 544, dec. 0. It is well settled that the Court will not compel a discovery when it is apparent that the pnrty applying merely surmises that there may be some evidence bene fticial to him or her in possession of an adversary.

(Iloyt vs. Am. Ex. Bank, Iloward, 89. 6.

The answer of the plaintiff to the petition in this case is contained in his affidavit That tho letters and papers named in the petition are not in his possession, nor under his control, and that ho has no knowledge where the same or auy of them are, is conclusive as to this motion. Stephen II. Cahonn vs. II. IT.

Tucker. This is an ac lion to recover S33S 12 with interest from October, 135S, alleged to be due under a parol agreement, which grew out of a sale of a house owned by plaintiff and bought by delendant. Defendant denies the claim, and states his part in the transaction which was complicated, was taken to oblige the plaintiff. Judge Greenwood for the defen iVu'uufftea'VeregaTjW other side summed up. The case went to the jury who found for defendant.

H. W. Adams rs. Cluster Bedell and the Warren street Methodist Church. Mr.

Bedell is the builder of the Warren street M. E. Church (of which the Kev. Joseph Law is Pastor) and has a lien unon it for $700. Tbo church is a party only so far, as it is ihterested ia knowing to whom the money is due.

The debt is denied by Mr. Bedell, and he further defends in that the lien should be brought under the general lien law of 1853. On the part It claimed that this last part of the defence is invalid, inasmuch as JudgeLottof the Supreme Court his held that the law does not apply to Brooklyn, because it directs the lien to be filed in tlioTown clerk's office, and there is no town clerk which leave in forco the old law. Put over to December term, Bichard Temple vs. Francis B.

Spiiwla. This is a notice for attachment for contempt, in this that the plaintiff did not appear to submit to examination as a judgment debtor. Mr. Spinola put in affidavit that he was in Court on the day named, before the Court opened, it appears, at 10 o'clock; as no hour was specified in tho order, which simply mentioned the forenoon. The motion was denied without cost or prejudice.

On Saturday the jury empannellod to inquire into the cause of Patrick Kelly's death, which took place at 215 Front street, on Thanksgiving Eight, met at the City Hall. The room in which the inquest was held, was thronged by an audience evincing much interest in the developemento Of the case. The first witness examined Wi.sMrs. Catherine Kelly, wife of the unfortunate deceased. She is quite a good lookiug, genteel young woman, and gave her testimony in a low tone pf voice, apparently, and very naturally laboring under much depression.

She testified as follows I reside at 215 Front street; I know Charlus M'Cauley; lie resides on the same floor (second) that I do; I saw him standing near the door on Thursduy evening about 11 o'clock; he was walking up and down; I heard him repeat in his own room, "that he could take that man across his knee and spank him," by his heavens; then he came out of his own room Into the hall and said that if Kelly was sman for him to come out now and lie would kick him; Itold him to go into his own room and mind ids own business; my husbund put on his boots, and I begged him to stay in, but he said no; I then heard M'Cauley say "come to the back vard," and my husband went out; M'Cauley also went out. Witness then testified to her having called in Hie assistance of John McTamney to prevent a tight between her husband and M'Caulev; heard M'Cauley say in the yard where he was with Kollv, "my wife never expressed the words;" did not hear her husband make any reply; immediately after blows were struck; didn't know who struck first; McTamney then caught Jhold of M'Cauley; Jhcr husband holloed that he was stabbed; could not say whether, when McTamnev caught hold of Cauley, they went down to the grounil together; Kelly, after he said he was stabbed, started to go up stairs; be went in at the basement floor and got up the basement stairs, and then fell dead; M'Cauley passed through the same way as deceased did, and went iip sUirs, and from thence went away immediately; witness did not see him after that, nor did she know where he went to; witness, her husband, MeCauley aud McTam Jiey were not over Ave minutes in the yard; did not see anything in her husband's hand before the fight; it was Bot very dark in that yard; it was a moonlight night; on Wednesday nieht witness went into Mrs. McCaulcy's looms MeCauley was there: went in to see her about something she had said in regard to her and her husband (the deceased); she said that witness' husband was ia the labit of coming in at 1 o'clock in the night and beating her, and called witness "a nasty sly little slut:" on going to Mrs. McCaulcy's to speak to her about this talk, she ordered witness out of her room; did not go out of the room at that lime; Mrs. McC.

then went and opened the door, put her hands upon her and told witness to go out MeCauley, who was there, said he did not want to hear any more stones; witness then left: her husband, who was in his own room, hearing the voices, came to the door, and then they boh went into their own room; had lived in that Huse a year last June: the MeCauley's came to iive there last July; never knew her husband and MeCauley to have any quarrel previous to this dnie; they had always ved friendly and passed the time of day; never heard her husband say Wit had threatened his life; at the time witness called McTamney to come in and prevent a tight, he was in his bed, and had not been in her bouse that evening previouslv. Itandull McDonald being sworn, deposed that he was a porter in a dry goods store in New Yord, and resided at 220 Water street, Brooklyn MeCauley came to Ins bouse on Thursday night, late in the night he must lave broken in the door ho ran into witness's bed room when witness woke up, MeCauley had hold of his father by the vest with two hands saying, "Alick, Aliek," and witness's father said "hollo what's the matter witness 1 urned round in bed and noticed MeCauley standin" opposite the window asked who was there, ana hosaid "Charley he then asked witness to get up by this time he bad run out into the kiteben and said "I am done for DOW," and then said "I'll swing I'll swing, there is not a doubt of it at that time MeCauley was Bitting on a chest opposite the window; witness then asked was tho matter with him he said he had got into a fight Jn Front street, and stuck a man he then said ho was going to faint, aud laid flat on the chest where he sat he then asked witness for a mouthful of water, which he gave to him, and he then spoke out in a low voice, "he's dead I know he's dead what will my poor children witness then told him ho should go and not stop there, and he repeated once or twice "0, what will I do?" Witness told him he did not know what he should do, only that he should not remain there lie then asked witness for his hat, and he told him he could not havo it and did not know where it was. not liaving any light or matched in tno house. AicCautev went to the window and looked out through tho blind witness in the meantime went into his bed room to put on his clothes, and on 'coming out begged MeCauley to leave which he did on requestihg him a second time witness did not see any knife with MeCauley on that occasion, nor did be hear him say anything about a knife had known MeCauley about four months; MeCauley was excited duringthe interview as also was witness; could not say if he were under the influence of liquor told the witness he was going ofl" by the way of the Wallabout, whereto he did not say witness did not furnish him with any money on that occasion, Alexander McDonald, father of the last witness, was sworn, and deposed to his inability to make any statement in regard to whit transpired in bis house on Thursday night. The witness in fact admitted that he had been keeping Thangsklvlng so assiduously, that he was perfectly oblivious to all sublunary matters on the night in question.

He had, however, a sort of confused idea of some one shaking him in the bed and calling "Aliek" or something of that sort, which at the time he did not mind imagining it was one of the neighbors who was sporting With him. Dr. I.ouis Bauer testified to his having made a postmortem examination upon dr censed, and gave the result in a written communication, the substance of which is, that deceased was 23 years of ago; had a blanched appearance; that the wound which caused death was Inches in length und in width, withatimooth margin, as if made by a sharp pointed instrument; that it was inflicted on the left side, of the heart between the nipple and tho breast bone, and penetrating the heart one inch, and furthermore that the instrument was plunged Into the chest of the deceased from left and downwards in an upright and backward direction, that consequently the Instrument made first the superior angle of tho wound and was Ibcn drawn out downward and leftward, that the diaphragm and the stomach wero wounded ia consequence of the latter being distended by food. In fine that Patrick Kelly came to his death by the copious loss of blood thiough the wound in his heart. Drs.

Bauer, Willetts, Halsey, Ostrander and Cooper assisted in making tho examination. It was announced that Doctor Young was in professional attendance on McTaniey, who was witness of the affray, and received a wound in bis endeavor to makepeace; the Doctor was not present, and it could not he sscertained how Boon the woundd man would he able to attend this investigation.

He was arrested and locked Destruction or Tenement Houses iit Fire About 1 o'clock this morning a flro broke out in the carpenter shop of John McMnhon in the rear of 8th avenue, near the corner of 4Gth street. The buildings were of light construction, and so full of inflamable materials that it was impossible to prevent tho spread of tho flames, until the bouses Nos. 649, M9)f, G51, 053, 655, and CD" on the 8th avenue, between 40th and 40th streets were entirely destroyed. The buildings were owned by Mr. Waling, called As.

Tho station house or the 22d ward was crowded with the sufferers, who were turned out of house aud home without the opportunit of saving anything. The police rescued a number of children from the burning buildings. The buildings were of frame and only two stories in height.

Tlicy were of not mnch intrinsic value. The total loss is estimated at about $10,000, partially insured. Puiy.E FituiTS of Heavi andLkiiit Weights in Kbw Jkksky. Tho North Itiver Ferry boats wero thronged with vehicles this morning about 2 o'clock, containing the patrons of tho prizo ring who wore on their way to New Jersey to witness the long talked ot prize tight between John Woods and George King for $1,000 a side. Kviry thing relating to the matter was kept as quiet as possible, and even those who are gonerally well postod, were not aware that anything unusual was going on.

The fact leaked out however during the preceding evening, anil large crowds assembled at the different pugilistic head gunners to he ready to start at the time agreed upon. Notwithstanding the general belief that the tight was to take place those most interested persistently denied it, and many were thus put oft" their guard who otherwise would have been present as spectators. It had been given out that tho contest would not take place until about ten days from thislirnc, but tho probability is thul this was only a ruse to keep the police offthe track. One evidence that something occurred is found In the fact that the different pugilistic head quarters wero missing this morning. It was stated that a fight between two light weights mimed Billy Clark and Dennis llarrlgan did take place but that the fight between Woodand King did not.

It isaltogether probable that both took place if one did, as the light weights were to settle their differences within the same ring where the heavy weights were to pummel each other. It is fair to presume, therefore, that the fight botweon Woods and King camo off this morning somewhere in New Jersey, unless prevented by thu authorises of that Slate, and that the light weights had it out naerwards.

Our readers will remember that the assessments for the building of the Hamilton avenue Bridge over Oowan us Crock, have boon objected to as unequitable, and iho matter has been before the Common Council for a length of lime. The magnitude of tho labor of going over the figures as determine.d upon by tho Assessors, seem to have deterred the members from investigating the matter and it was argued also that substantial justice had been done all parties. Some of the property owners that wero assessed complained, and a largo minority of tho Common Council, we think sided with them. However, the assessment was confirmed, and the matter comes up on application for a writ of ecrtorari to bring the matter bo. fore the Court.
