of the city, whilst they take particular pains to
| renovate the roof Of the old Calaboose will moi
forget that there are several apertures in the floor

night, by walking upon the floor aforesaid

days the attention of the Fourth District Court has

sis of it. The jury in the was yesterday dis
charged until Monday next.
UNFORTUNATE CAsE.-A person who was not

would have to pay for the sale Of their vegetables,
etc., and also stated that he was going TO sue the
Municipality for SIS, 900 damages for depriving him
ofhis office This we learn from an authentic and
| respectable source.
