The grand jury was calied and ~izteen answered io their Dames, when Judge F. proveeded to deliver Bis charge. It waa very late, however, befora ibe charge was delivered; the members of the grand jury, not being prompsin tausir atwend- ance at the appointed bour—t0 o'clock. quorum was, however, at lengih obtained, and the Judge delivered the following: CHARGE OP JUDGE FianER. Gentlemen of the Grand Jury: You bave been selected genuemen, from the bedy of the citizens of this District to compoze its grand inquest for the present session of the ; (iminal Court. This celection is an evidence ot your inte!ligence, your respectability and the ppright character which you have ever main- tamed in the community of which you urea pert From the day when the system of in- quisition by grand juries was first instituted eenturies Ago by our forefathers in England down to the preeent time, the peopie have al- Ways expected them to be called from among the best men in the community from which they were chosen,and I am quite sure that your selection genUemen has not been an ex- ception to the general rale. ‘The object in adopting the eystem of grand juries was two-fold. On the one hand it was to guard witb jealous care the interests and lib- erties of the people by protecting them from frivelous and malicious prosecutions: while on toe other it was intended to secure them from the violence and outrage of those wicked men who, unfortunately, are to be found even in the best regulated communities, and who can only be controlled and restrained from the Bmmission of crime by the prompt, prudent and impartial administration of justiee. From Boeew remarks, gentlemen, and from the oath Which you have taken, you will readily under- | stand, that while Re are solemnly bound to seek out those who have really offended azainst the luw, you are not to listen io merely trivial and malicious accusations, You are not w ingvire so much what you may do because you have the power to do it, but yon ara oarotully to inquire what you can do and ought to do to promote the public good by the administration of substantial justice. . You are clothed with much power. You sbould use it, not as asword to persecute the innocent, the ignorant, and the unwary, hat as a@ ebield to defend society against vice and erimne, and wrong-doing in all its forms. It will be your duty, gentlemen, to present all notorious offenses, such @s nuisances, riots, seditions and the like; and also such as are given you in charge by the court or by tho prosecuting officer, as well as those cases which haye been sent up for your consider- ation by a committing magistrate. In making your investigations, you inst diligentiy in- quire into all the circumstances of the charge preterred, and also the credibility of the wit. nesses called tosustainit. And you will be careful to have nogvidence befors you which would not be adm#esibdle at trial at the bar of the court, You must always require the very best proof which can be obtained, and atter You shall haye finished your examination ot the testimony, you will then consider whether sufficient ground has been laid to require the agcused to be put upon his trial betore the petty jury. If then twelve of you agree that such ground does exist, your foreman will en- corse on the bill the words, “A True Bill, aod sign his name under that endorsement. If twelve of you do not agree, then the endorse- speut will be ‘‘Ignoramur,” “Ignored,” or “Not Found,” with the signature of the fore. erennder. man @ vility of any testimony submitted to you, you | @ ould be relieved of your doubt by taking the udvice of the Court. of the District Attorney or of bis deputy. We shall each of us alwa be glad to give you any information you may | desire. Jt is proper that I should define to you soma of the crimes which in the course of your ser- vice you may be called upon to investigate. to which I will call your attention is e, which, in its general sign fleation, is simply the killing of 8 human beinz, and has been very properly distinguished by the writers on criminal law into justifluble, excusable aud felonious homicide. Justifiable homicide is the killing of a hu- | mar creature by an officer of the law in the e ecution of public justice; as when he hangs a criminal in strict confurmity to a judicial Sentence; or for the advancement of pubic = ‘ice, As when &n officerin the performance of some other duty required of him by tne law, ie placed under such circumstance as to create the necessity of killing, the party assaulting or resisting him in the discharge of his duty; or when the homicide is committed by another than a public officer for the preven in of a fercible and atrocious crime. Homi ide is excusable when the killing is from accident or in self-defence. Tn relation to accidental homicide, however, itis to be observed that the acciden: or misad- Yenture must always be one which occurs in | the doing of 4 lawfulact; forif by accident a - man sbull, in the prosecution of an unlawful | enterprise, kill another, the law will not hold | him guiltless of the blood of his fellow, but he will be guilty of murder or of manslaughter, accurding to the nature of the original uniaw- tul act in which he was engaged. Feionious homicide 1s the killing of ainman being without excuse or justification, and is divided into manslaughter and mu:der. The principal difference between these two of- feuses consists in the fact thatin manslaughier the killing is the result of hot or sudden pas- sion, under great provocation; or is the unin- tenced consequence following upon the doing of an unlawful act. Murder, on the other hand, is the wilful and deliberate act of a depraved and malignant heart, desperately set upon mischief. It may be more accurately defined to be th- killing by a p+ Tson of sound mind, of a human being, with & premeditated purpose, or malice afore- thought, either expressed or imphed in law. The walice need not be directed toward the du- cexsed in particular; it is sufficient if there ex- ists in the heart of the slayer at the time of the erpetration of the deed a design to do a ma- Ezcant and wicked act. Muyghem is when one person’violently de- poses another of the use of any of his members fas the eye, hand or toretooth,) which enables fim the better to defend himself or to annoy Ris adversary when engaged in a fight. Rape is when aman has carnal knowledge ofa woman against her will, or of a female eliid under 10 years of age, either with or with. ont her consent; and is one of, the basesi, blackest, and most detestible of human crimes. ® Arvon is the wilfuland malicious burning of ine dwelling of another or of an Out-bouse, being part of or attached to the cartelage. Burglary is defined to be the breaking and entering of the dwelling of anotherin the night ime, or when there is not sufficient dawn be- gun, or twilight lingering to discover the face of the burglar, with intent to commit a felony, whether the felony be committed or not. Forgery has been defined by Sir Wm. Black- stone to be the fraudulent making or alterat of @ writing to pe) at rete of another man’s rights, and by Mr. + it has been defined as the ielonious making or altering malo ammo— with on evil design—ofany written instrum: at four we purpose of fraud and deceit. Tae offense is consummated by the felonious making of the ins'rument, with intent to defrand, even with. Ontits utterance. But the instrument must be auch, when torged, that it has a tendency to prejudice the rights of another. The crime Inay be commitwd by an agent as well as by ‘he party himself, he himself being present, as, ler instance, if B. makes the paper, O. engraves the plate and D. filis up the instra- ment, each without knowing tbe others are employed for that purpose, they are all prin- sipale. Yerjury, by the common law, has been de> fined to be the taking of @ wii! ally false oath by one who, being iawfuily sworn by a com- petent court to depore ‘he trath in any judicial | Proceeding, sweareabsolately and falsely ina | matter materialto the poiatia questicn, wheth. er he beilevyed or not.

But this definition | has been said to be defective, becnuss it does | note’ate what the meaffing of felonious is. 1 way te explained to mean thatthere is no color | ot right or excuse whatever for the act, and the intent must be to deprive the owner uot merely temporarily bat permanently of his property.

Trew on is properly and justly denominated the chief of crimes, because it always, ir per- prtrated, involves in it wholesale murder and almost every other crime in the criminal cal- ender.
