MURDER IN LivEnPooL.—Liv s:RPoor, SATUR-
DAY.—Considerable excitement has prevailed in town to-day,
in consequence of the death of a prostitute by the hand of a
sister in misery and crime. The name of the deceased is
M‘Gill, quite a young woman, and the name of the unfortu-
nate wretch who inflicted the fatal wound is Jane Swift,
both, as before mentioned, living a life of profligacy and dis-
sipation. It appears, so far as the particulars have as yet
been ascertained, that between twelve and one o'clock this
morning, Swift and the deceased were carousing with a
number of sailors in a public-house in Tally-street, a neigh-
bourhood not of the highest repute in this town. Some
eingnatural and common Very much excited,
difference arose between them, whether in consequence of
anything said or done by their paramours, as said
by some, does not clearli appear, but certain it is
anddi they
declaring got
tohigh
to her class, that she would take the life of the deceased
before morning. After some little time Swift was calmed
down ; but on leaving the public-house the quarrel was
with
au words
th
e;
vehemence wift b
resumed, and the deceased, some parties say, struck
Swift a blow, whilst others say she only gay, her a push in
order to get out of her way. This Was, however, enough
for Swift, who was already much exasperated, and she
made a stab at the deceased, inflicting a most serious
and dangerous wound on the side of the neck, near the
collar-bone. The deceased staggered and fell down, but
was immediately carried to a neighbouring house, where
she died a short time afterwards. A surgeon was sent for,
but arrived too late to render any assistance. As soon as
Swift had perpetrated the deed, she ran off with the knife
in her hand, and was pursued down Park-lane by several
persons who were standing by. She called out to one of
the women in pursuit that she would serve her as she had
done the deer seed, if she persisted in following her. Ulti-
mately she outran her pursuers, and was lost sight of, and
succeeded in making her escape. The knife was found about
an hour and a half afterwards lying on the ground in Shaw's-
alley, one of the streets through which Swift must have
passed. It was a large clasp knife, such as is usually car-
ried by sailors, and had marks of blood still remaining on it,
although there had been heavy rain for some time pre-
viously, which must necessarily have obliterated some of the
stains. Every exertion was made, after information had
been given of the occurrence, with the view of discovering
the author of the fool deed, but up to this moment, not-
withstanding the P• lice have made a strict search, nothing
had transpired likely to lead to her apprehension ; it is not
probable, however, that 010 can long escape detection.
