The Recor’ er then addressed the jury in a few brief rt marks. He said that it was almost reedless to point oue the duties of a Grand Jury. they ila 4 juined to be acquatn and, were it not for the require- mertsof the statute, there would be mo occa-ion to ebarge the jury; but, as the statute required it, it be- came imperative to inform them upon certain particulars. The Recorder then briefly a¢dressed the jury on the usury law jaw on lotteries, the election laws, the law on bribery. &c. With regard to the first named. although een almost a dead letter on the statute book, yet thereof should be presented as misdemeansra. ‘bitory law waa then touched on; it had already been passed on ia this Court, and was now betore the Conrt of Appeais—ove Judge of this Court had declared the law unconsti:utional, while another had declared the reverse; yet proveentions for its viclation could not be originated in thie Court, for, by an act of the last Legis- iature, the Special Sessions had ccntrol over all misde- mearors. If, however, the jury would find indictaents uader the law, the Court would ‘feel it his duty to have such indictments quashed. The Resorder then addressed the jury on the finding of indictments, recommending that caution should be exerc.sed, as they were really to a certain exwnt Zt guardians of the Fights of the citizen. It is in my epinion, said the Recor. er, hignly improper for the Grand Jury to find indictments ‘against parties, with the expectation that farther evidence then | that eubmitted to them woula be found to sustain the charge. It frequently eceurs that parties are indicted, and when brought to trial it turna out that there is no grounds on which to svstain a prorecution. The time of the Court is thus ocouvied :o ne purposé, and the party anlr jury which is generally irreparab'e. rand Jury abould not be influenced in their action by public clamor. bat should patiently investigate the evizence and act with a cue regard to the publi: inte- resta and the rights of individuals. I thiok the ends of i jonld be subserved if you wore to keep all your ps private, The fact of evidence having been heard betore the Crand Jury injures the party involved, even where no indictment is found; and you should therefore be careful not to discloes anything which may come before you when no final action 1s taken. Tue Recorder concluded his remarks, and the jury retired in charge of the officer. TRIAL OF JOSR?T R. FBIING. The Recorder having charged the Grand Jury, the trial of Joseph ‘bling, the’‘Commissioner of Streeta and Tampa was then resumed. The District Attorney opened the case to the jury in a speech of consideradle length. ia which he gave @ history of the successive caarters under which New York had been governed from 1838 to tue present time—the official curruption which had gradually crept into the cifferent departments, and whisb occasion- ed the neceesity of nore +tringent lawe for their preven- tion, which laws were final) in 1865. and under which the in‘ictment against Mr. Ebliug bad been found. He should attempt to sustain the indictment by proof, which the more he bad reflected upon it since the last tral, the more conclusive did it appear to lis mind; and be was ccnficent it would appear equally conclusive to the mind of jury. The indictment charges Mr. Ebling with having on the %ch of January, 1855, entered into an agreement with Smith, Sickle & Co., by which he was to ute his personal and officia) influence in procuring for Smith, *iesle & Co., a contract for cleaning the streets of New York, cn condition that Ebling should have one half of ail that said Smith, Sickle & » might receive for thetr services, «ver the sum of $140,000, A full re- port of the former trial hae La tabarnrans in the Hxraip, and need not ke repeated, aa nothing new has aa yet been leveloped upon the present trial, LFtbe only witnesses ex- smined yesterday were Morgan 1.
