JOLT B.—Baron LIFROY took his seat on the bench at half-past nine, when a murder case was proceeded with. The prisoners challenged nineteen jurors, and the Crown set one juror aside. The prisoners, Catherine Bryan, Bridget Langan, and Anne Corr, were then given in charge, for that they on the 25th of June, 1843, at Munsboro', did kill and murder Patrick Bryan, by strangling him. The principal witness was a woman named Gilhooly, who swore she saw the prisoners in the act of murdering the deceued. It further appeared in evidence that at • coroner's inquest held on the body • verdict of suicide was returned, and that no witneu bad come forward then to accuse the prisoners Deceased was found dead, his throat being out, in a ditch outside his own house, and the prisoner, Catharine Bryan, was his wife. Several witnesses having been examined, Mr. Shelton addressed the jury for Anne COIT and Mr. Biakeney for the other prisoners, averring that dummied had committed suicide, and that Gilhooly was unworthy of credit. The Jury had not agreed on Monday night, and were locked up, and on Tuesday morning their verdict was not returned.  11  Property-Taal—Liability of Tenants.—lt may be proper to mention, as a piece of information likely to prevent trouble and misapprehension, that, according to the provisions of the Property-Tax act, if a tenant leave his occupancy without paying his taxes, the incoming tenant becomes liable for them, and is bound to pay them. Of course tenant has the same recourse upon the landlord, in -' amount from the rent, as the first tenant ' he paid the taxes. /—We hope our friends on the Con--Ave side i 1 remember that Saturday next, the 20th instant, is the last day on which claims can be lodged by those desirous to vote in any election for the city and town of Glasgow. Something may occur which will make it a subject for deep and serious regret should they neglect the present opportunity of enrolling themselves, and of calling directly, to save trouble, on Mr. Wm. Anderson, 13, John Street, who takes charge of the whole business at a most moderate rate.  ..---(loud cheers)—. to return thanks for the kind manner in which my health has proposed and drunk, I am too sensible of my Incompetency to knowledge the compliment as it deserves.
