AN IMPORTANT DECISION.-Judge
Henly, at York court, on the 1st inst,
rendered decision of considerable i'm
portance. IN a case of felony the coun-
sci for the defence demurred to the in
dictment on the ground that at the time
the Indictment was found Gin February
last some OF the members Of the grand
jury had not paid their capitation tax
for the preceding year. Under the pre-
sent law a person who has failed to pay
his eapitation tax for the preceding year
Is disqualified from voting and serving
on grand juries. 1t was contended by
the prosecution that the law did not dis
qualify any one until an election was
had and the fact ascertained that the
tax had not been paid; that the party
had until the day of election in which
TO pay his tax, which secured him the
right to vote and serve on a jury. The
Court held that Il failure to llGy the tor
before serri,ag on the grand jury acted
as q disqualification, and that therefore

on last Wednesday with his son Mitch

leave for the Eastern Lunatic Asylum

distinguished men formerly Professors
in the University. DIR. Gessner Har-
rison was Professor of Greek, and Prof.
Bonnycastle filled the chair OF Mathe-
matlcss They had an understanding
that each would teach the other the
branch of which he was master. They
were both perfect in their departments,
but Prof Harrison's knowledge of
Mathematics was limited, and SO the
others knowledge of Greek roots. When
his arrangement had progressed for
some time, Prof. Harrison was heard 10
say, IF there is a man living who
know: nothing about Greek roots, that
man is Prof. BOnnycastle." And Prof.
