Judge Kent said that excuse would ty the law, unless the juror could say that his re as would prevent his finding a verdict under the evidence, because by that verdict the prisoner would suffer death. ‘The Court could not release him from the duty. Mr, Weeks said he could not assert that under his aftirmation, and the Dis- trict Attorney making no objection, Mr. Weeks was sworn, and took his seat with his beaver on. The next was James Daly, who not having formed an opinion, was sworn, making twelve. ‘The Cuxnx then read the indictment, charging the prisoner, in four ditferent counts, with the murder of Ann eitga, by smothering her with} bolster pillow bed, or some substance tothe Jurors unknown, Te the indict- ment the prisoner pleaded not guilty, in a faint voice. ‘The Distnict Arrousxey opened the case to the Jury, end adduced the following testimony :— Wittram Hicixsormast examined by District Avro: xxy.—I live at No. 464 Broadway, and know the prison at the bar; he occupied the store of the house next door, 466; but rented the dwelling part of the premises over his store; 1 think he went into it about Mi 1 never knew that he had any family except his Idid not know her name before the murder; he used to have people to work; I had never been in his premises before the mur- der, but 1 saw the cot out in the yard.
