Jupse Crawrorp’s charge tothe grand jury for the present term of the Criminal Court is long, bat not particularly luminous. In it occurs the following Bunsby-ish paragraph in relation to the more important cases before the grand jury : “ There willbe. I regret to be informed, several accusations for heinous offences submitted to your investigation. They will draw to themselves from you the most serious deliberation, not a different kind of examination from that you will give to all charges, but they will attract graver thonghts, and a train of reasoning from facts to conclusions more dwelt upon, oftener weighed and reconsidered than is usual when consequences are lighter. This is mentioned as flowing from the nature of such accusations, not to urge upon you increased vigi- lance; that you would exert and could not avoid | exercising if you would. The mode of examining witnesses must. of course, be shaped by your own good judgment, and that be regulated by the | greater or less intelligence of the witness; er promptly | the matter under investigation. |. ‘Phe duration of your service must depend on the business that will claim your attention and its proper dispateh."* Tux Wants oF tHe INner Max.—The public’s | old friend—Monsieur P.

P. | Stanton delivered an interesting lecture before this Association, last evening. He proposed to treat of the subject of Art in a general manner, as he had never gazed upon those celebrated statues, and paintings, which, for centuries, had attracted the admiration of the world. He spoke at length of that sense of the beautiful, termed taste, which | was fostered and cultivated by Nature herself, and in which all true appreciation of the works of Art has its foundation. Dr. Stone, President of the Association, announced to the audience that. on Friday next, Rev. Dr. Sampson would lecture upon the adoption of Art. asan element of in- struction in our colleges and academics. He also stated. that the present Exhibition would close on Satarday next, to give place, he hoped, to one imore permanent, and even more attractive. Serious Cu z.—On Tuesday night, a young Mela, was arrested by watch- men Donovan, Roney and Evans, on a warrant issued by Justice Donn, on a charge made by Jno. H.N. Pumphreys, that the said Mela “did at- tempt to bribe him to set fire to the premises oc- cape by said Mela, on Seventh street, Washing: ton city, for the purpose, as he alleges, to receive the price of insurance or the amount thereof, and with threatening to carry it into execution.””. He gave security fora further hearing. At the time appointed for the trial Mr Mcia weived the further hearing and gave bail in $500 for his appearance at Court.

IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT In putting up FINE CUT CHEWING TOBACCO, has been adopted by Messrs, E. GOODWIN & BRO., of New York City. TOBACCO, ofthe BEST QUALITY, is sel neatly wrapped in TIN FOIL, and PATENT ESSED. sm great advantages of this over other brands consist in the size ofthe packages, rendering itmore copvenient to carry in the pocket, and by being PRESSED SOLID it keep, MOIST and FRESH, and improves in quality as it is used; while in other brands, as soon as the package is opened, the quali- ty rapidly DETERIORATES—the tobacco grow- ing dry—and littering the pocket, to the greatannoy- ance of the consumer. The Dressing which the Fine Cut Tobacco undergoes, in the process of manufao- ture, frees it from all grit or impurities so objection- able in the use of Plug Tobacco. Chewers will do well to give the Patent Pressed a trial, and judge for themselves, For sale by Wholesale Merchants, who receive it direct from the Manufacturers. E.
