"By her Majesty's command, ' hDWARDS." MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.—Jan. 11. (Before Mr. Sergeant Adams, Assistant-Judge, at Clerkenwell.) Joseph Bluff was indicted for having unlawfully and maliciously inflicted grievous and bodily harm on Wil liam Neal the younger. Mr. O'Brien prosecuted, and Mr. Parry appeared for the defence. William Neal said he was in the employment of Mr. Newdegate, M.P., of Harefield, in this county. His father was gamekeeper, and he was assistant-gamekeeper to him. On Tuesday, the 20th of December, at about half-past nine in the morning, he saw the prisoner, with another man, in a field belonging to Mr. Newdegate, but in the occupation of another party. There were some birds in an adjoining meadow, and they went into it. Witness went towards them ' and stopped until they came up. They ran a few yards, and witness followed to ask them what they were doing ; but before he did anything, the prisoner took a gun-stock out of his pocket, and struck witness twice across his left arm. Witness then took hold of his coat-collar, and the prisoner struck him twice on the head with the gun-barrel, which he took out of the oth er po ek et. . Th is cause d hi s h ea d to bleed a great deal. He then told the other man to come and kill him. They then took his stick (a stout ash sticksaway frovi him, and hit him twice on the head, anel knocked him dciwn. Witness cried out for assis tarice, and a man named Ives came up. The other man then ran away, taking the gun-barrel with him. Isaaclves stated that he heard Neal crying out for him, and when lie went - trp he saw the prisoner and Neal rolling about in the snow; - and the prisoner's companion was beating Neal on the head - with a stick. Just before he got'up, the prisoner called out to the other inan-L -" Kill the' villain," and when he reached them,- the man threw down the stick,- and ran off. Neal's head was bleeding very. much. He parted them with the stick as soon as he could, and used the stick on the prisoner's head. iV/r.Parry—Am I to understand that partin,c; them with the stick, 3ou mean beating the priBener about the head with it ? Witriss . -L•Yea ; be - would not ket out without, and I hit him on the head with the' stick, .and his head bled, but not near so much as-Nears:. Samuel Doultby;' another man who went up On beiiring 'the cries for assistance; said; that afterwards the prisoner said he did not, mean - anything by the expreision " Kill the villain." Police constable 11 - T, who took the prisoner into cus tody, said the prisoner told him he was not a poacher by profession, but he knew he was wrong in being on the labit."" • Mr. Thomas James; • surgeon, practising at Uxbridge, 'said he - examined Nears head,• - and found three severe wounds on it. They were incised wounds, and partook of the character of a cut. Neal was ill about a. week, but-his wounds were now well; and , he had not appre hended any danger atall. The jury, after a short deliberation, returned a ver dict of guilty dfj a simple assault; The Assistant-Judge—Then I am to understand, gentlemen, thatL in .your opinion, cutting a man's head open in three places is a simple assault ? The Forernad—We think. there was provocation, my Lord. - The Assistaqt-Judge--There was not the least evi dence to prove that ; the question for your considera tion was, whet er the prisoner. inflicted on the prose cutor grievous bodily harm. I suppose, by your ver dict, you mean eis guilty of a common assault only. The Foreman said that was their verdict. • The Assistant-Judge—The jury have discharged their duty, no doubt, to. the best of their judgment. It is now for me to consider what judgment the Court can pass upon their verdict. It is the duty of the judge to submit to the judgment of the jury, and they have found the prisoner guilty of a common assault, but not guilty of inflicting grievous .bodilx harm. The Foreman—There was a portion of the jury de sirous to acquit him altogether. The Assistant-Judge —Very likely, but their verdict was passed now, and it was for a common assault. For his part, he (the Assistant-Judge) did not see the least palliation for his offence ; but as he was convicted of a common assault only, the sentence of the Court on him was that he be imprisoned for three months. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. STABBING. William , Entwisle Willis, a law-writer, 61 years of. age, was brought up in custody, from King's College Hospital, charged, with stabbing his' wife in the•throat, and subsequently attempt ing to commit suicide, on . Christmas-day last. Mary Willis, the prosecutrix, of 5, Lee's-buildings, Chancery-lane, stated that she had been married to the prisoner about 22 years, and within twelve months after her marriage he was committed for seven days from the Hatton-garden Polic e C our t f or assau l t i ng her with a poker. They had lived together very happily ever since, and .had had six- children. For the last three or four years they had slept in separate beds, and for more than eleven months past he had not contributed a penny to wards her support. She had worked for her own living, and had paid the rent of their lodgings herself. On Christmas eve she went to bed shortly after 12, and about ti•o• hours afterwards was aroused from her sleep by her husband, who came into the room without a light, and got into her, bed. He said, " Poll. I am come to you, for lam so cold." Sh e rep l ie d mere l y, "Th en why come to me if you are bold ?" 'ln the next moment she received a Violent stab froni ii . sha . ip . -pOinted knife, which severed herja, 7.* and entered her throat, and in raising her baud to resist him she received a Cut 'upon her fingers. She then called as loudly asilie - Was able to a Mr. Hyatt, who lived at the bottom of the bonse, exclaiming " My husband has - stabbed me." Hyatt and his son Caine to her as sistance, the prisoner,, in the meantime, having gone back to his own, room. A surgeon was sent for, and her wounds were dressed under his direction. The next morning her daughter found the carving -knife produced in her (witness's) bed, stained with bloqd. Hyatt deposed that, on being called up,, he went to Mrs. Willis's room and found her b e d-li nen saturate d, with bleed, ther e being also a large pool of blood upon •thelloor. He sent his son for a constable and then en tered the oilier room ; where he found the prisoner lying on the bed, wrapped up in some of the bed-cloth9s, and also bleeding considerably from some wounds in his , threaL. Witness spoke to him, and the prisoner said, she is not dead my hand must have been nervous." Witness added that the prisoner and his family had been living in the house..with him about 5 years, and they were often quarrelling, chiefly in .consequence of the drunken habits of the '' • • Mr. Henry—lS the prOseolitrix a well-conducted per son ? Witness said he never knew anything to the contrary of her. She appeared a hard-working woman, although occasionally indulging in a glass. The prisoner—Have you never seen her lifted upstairs, in a state of drunkenness, by her own children ? Witness—Never ; but I have often seen you in that predicament. The prisoner here accused his wife of infidelity, but she avowed her innocence of the charge, and Hyatt stated that he had seen nothing improper in her beha viour while in his house. Mr. Jones, a surgeon, who was sent for to attend Mrs. Willis in the night, described the wound in her throat as a. very dangerous one, being close to the artery. If it had been a little deeper it must have been fatal. Mr. Taylor the house surgeon of King's College Hos pital, deposed' to having attended the prisoner while in the hospital. Be had several skin wounds in the throat, inflicted by a razor, apparently, but none of them of a dangerous character. The prisoner said he should reserve his defence for the trial. In the meantime, having had nothing better than rice-water for eleven day; he implored the permission of the magistrate to have a glass of beer. He felt that he should die of exhaustion if it was withheld from him any longer. Mr. Henry said the medical men had no doubt wisely directed that he should be kept without beer, and the order must be adhered to. Tile prisoner was then committed for trial. from M M r.

EVENING, JANUARY 12, 1854 " Sewers-office, Guildhall, Jan. 10, 1854." The Court then adjourned. HULL BOROUGH SESSIONS. CITY COURT OF SEWERS. On Tuesday, a court was held—Mr. Deputy Peacock occupying the chair. THE CITY GAS COMPANIES. Dr. LETIIEBY—Mr. Chairman, I have received a letter from your honourable Court, requesting that iwould supply you with the details upon which my report of the quality of the gas of the different companies in the City was founded. This would involve a great deal of time and labour ; and, although I have no objection whatever to accede to the request, I have formally to object to it on the ground thab it is very irregular. In the whole course of my professional experience, which has ex tended over 14 years, and in the course of which I have been consulted by the Government, by most of the corporations in England, and by some of the largest firms, I have never had such a request as that made to me, nor do I know of a similar request ever having been made to my colleagues, whom I have consulted upon the subject. I have brought my books here this morning for the purpose of giving you the details, but, at the same time, I must not be called upon to furnish such details upon all occasions. A third of this large book which I produce contains the results of the experi ments, which I cannot, in reason be expected to copy. (Hear.) With regard to what appears to me to be an impression existing in the minds of some of the com missioners, that I am a little too favourable in my re ports of the quality of the gas supplied by the Great Central Company, I have already told you the circum stances under which I came to this office. Nobody has access to my room. Ido not know a single man con nected with the Great Central Company, and am in no way interested in its affairs. The CHAIRMAN—No member of the Court entertains an opinion of that nature. (Hear, hear.) Dr. MURRY—The observations which have appeared in the public prints made that impression upor. my mind. The question is whether I have volunteered a statement which was beyond the regular scope of my duty. I do not think I haie done so, because, upon looking at the Times newspaper for two days in November last, you will see reports of the quality of gas fur. niched by the different metropolitan companies, and by these reports you will see how different have been the results obtained - by two classes of people of whom lam altogether ignorant. One report states that the gas of the Chartered Companyis equal to 14 candles—another 13 ; the City Company, 13—another 14 ; the Coinmercial Company, 11—another, 16 ; the Great Central, .16— 'another, 12. So that there is a difference of three or four candles, amounting to from 25 to 30 per cent. 'And upon these different data there has been a number of discussions in the public papers ; and - under these cir-: ctimstances I thought it' my duty to make the Court acquainted with the facts of the case. I never should have made the statement at all had it not been' for these two erroneous reports. They are not correctidata, but they are made the basis of discussions in the papers. I may perhaps be permitted to say that, in volunteering statements with regard to the quality of the gap not only of the Great Central, but of the other companies, I shall be doing you and the public service, for in the course of the investigations which I have been making during the last two years I find that some of the companies ate supply ing gas to this metropolis which, in the course, of a -few years, will tend t o d amage very much the atmosphere and the property in it, for it is so highly charged with sulphuret that I am able to obtain 21 grains of oil of vitriol from 100 cubic feet of gas which is getting into the atmosphere. Then, again, there is a qiiantity of ammonia which, holds in solution a large quantity of tar, and whenever there is . .a ,leakage in th e stree t s it oozes out. During the last 50 years, when it has got into the public roads it has rendered the soil near to it se offen sive that you can hardly move the pavement without doing a great deal of harm. What it may be in 20 years hence I cannot say, but I think it will be almost unsafe that you should then disturb the pavements ;at all. , I therefore think I do not go out of my way when, from time to time, I repeat to you the name of the company supplying gas which is highly charged. (Hear, hear.) Deputy HALE—Has not the oil of vitriol which is in the gas a tendency to injure furniture? Dr. LETliEnr—Certainly ; and there is not a library in the metropolis the books on the upper ; shelves of which are not tumbli ng t o p i eces f rom this cause; and there is no controlling power over the diffarent com panies, because the public are not aware of tlie presence of these impurities. They are burning this gas in shops where there is a large quantity of perishable fabrics. I think nothing is more important than that the chemical qualities of the gas should from time to time be tested. Statements have been made in the public papers to the effect that invitations have been given to anybody to come to the works for the.purpose of examining for thein selves. This is all nonsense. The examinati on o f gas at the gas-works go es f or nothing. It is the quality of the material as supplied to the public, because, after travelling two or three miles, it undergoes such a change that there is no comparison between the quality of the gas there and at the works. The examination must be made after the gas has passed ,through the pipes, and as it is supplied to the consumers. Mr. ELLIOTT—Dr. L e th e by has stated that there is a great deal of gas burnt in the metropolis highly injurious to furniture as well as books. Will he be good eno ug h to inform the Court if the comb us ti on of gas so largely charged with sulphur, in combination with oxygen, is not also very destructive to the wind-pipe and lungs, especially of persons in the daily habit of sitting' for several hours in shut-up rooms where such gas is burnt? Dr. LETHEBY—I have no hesitation at all in saying, that whatever is destructive to inert matter must neces sarily be more injurious to living matter. I have been examining the snow that has fallen lately round Lon don, and have found it charged with sulphpric acid in combination with ammonia, and the same also with re gard to the leaves of trees. It proceeds sometimes in combination with ammonia, and sometimes in a free state, so that you cannot get a pure air. The CHAIMAN—The commissioners are; very much indebted to you forattending and giving them these par t ( ic He ulars hea connected with the g as supplied tto the City. ar, r.) , Dr. Letheby then bowed and retired. THE LATE FALL OF SNOW. A petition, signed by the four contractors for removing the dirt froM the streets, praying that the;y might not be fined for having failed to clear away the snow during the latter part of the week, and that the Tfiaines under similar circumstances, might for the future be used as a place of deposit, was read by Mr. Daw, the, clerk. Evi -1 chance at considerable length was given bythe inspec t tors to the effect that many of the urineipal, as well as nearly all the back streets and courts, and alleys, we re covered with snow for sev era l d ays, until permission had been granted by the Lord Mayor to throw it into the river. The contractors pleaded, in mitigation of penalty, the utter impossibility of making greater exertions to clear the streets than they did, one of them having em ployed between 50 and 60, another 40, and a third 30. carts in the husiness. They also said that they had bad men and horses at work night and day from Wednesday ' till the present time. The inspectors'admitted that two of the contractors had made every exertion in their power to fulfil their contract, which was an impossibility on account of the enormous quantity of snow. Mr. HEYWOOD, the City surveyor, said that on Wed nesday.morning there was no less a quantity than 85,000 cart-loads of snow in the streets of the City, which no available force could have removed within the time re quired, and that by the following morning 50,000 cart loads had been thrown into the streets from the tops of houses. Mr. H. L. TAYLOR then moved that the contractors be fined the following sums : Mr. Drummond, 251. ; Mr. Gould, 1001; ; Mr. Reddin, 50/. ; Mr. Rooke, 1501. Deputy GODSON seconded the motion. Various amendments were made and seconded, and, after a long discussion, the following penalties were imposed —5/. 501. , 't 50/ and 751. BUSINESS OF THE COMMISSION DURING THE PAST YEAR. Mr. DAW read the following document : " To the Honourable the Commissioners of Sewers for the City of London. " Gentlemen,—l beg to lay before you my annual re port of certain details of the business of your honourable Court during the past year, 1853, and which at this time possess perhaps a more than customary interest. " Your honourable Court has met on 40 occasions, and your several committees have met on 70 days, making to gether 110 days on which the multifarious business of the commission has occupied your attention. ".„/It these meetings there have been 604 petitions pre sented, viz. :-355 for various works, 217 for drains, 32 for cleansing cesspools. " There have been, in the same time, 3,126 houses re turned by the medical officer of health for your inspectors to examine, and, in addition, 194, which have been viewed by them from other causes, making together 3,320. " Consequent upon these proceedings, I have caused to be prepared, and have signed, at the orders of the Court, the following number of notices, which have been served on the parties concerned, namely : To form new drains, amend drainage, water supply, &c.

Penelaza, and Lieut. Quin had been robbed to a large extent, in consequence of Brown having had access to that part of the barracks where their property was, for security, placed. Bow, 383 S, a very active officer, ultimately captured both the prisoners at a house in Bath, where they had been living together as man and wife, and in the room which they inhabited much of the stolen property was met with, together with pawnbrokers' duplicates. The assistants of numerous pawnbrokers were now in attendance, bringing with them p r op er t y w hi c h had been pledged at their respective shops by the female Maffey, and upon identification thereof as to ownership, the prisoners were fully committed for trial upon four charges. The Epiphany Quarter-sessions, for the borough of Hull, were opened last Thursday, in the Sessions' Court, before Samuel Warren, Esq., Q.C., D.C.L., Recorder. The learned Recorder took his seat In plain clothes, without his robes. He apologised for this to the grand jury, and explained that his clerk, who was bringing them down from London, had been, with the train in which he was travelling, stopped by th e snow. The grand jury having been sworn, and the usual pro clamation against vice and immorality having been read, The learned RECORDER proceeded to charge the grand jury. He said:— Gentlemen of the Grand Jury,—We meet again, for the sixth time, to discharge our grave and painful duties— duties directed to those unhappy persons who, while we, free as the air we breathe, are enjoying the delights of cheer ful social intercourse, and welcoming the advent of a new year, are inearceratM in a prison, awaiting in more or less misery, our decision upon the acts imputed to them. These duties we must endeavour to discharge with firmness and discretion, as good citizens dealing with their fellow citizens, by no m eans the less such, because they stand in peril of being proved to be erring and unworthy ones.—Gentlemen, since I last sat here, circumstances with which you are familiar, in my opinion not only justify, but require some observa tions from me ou this occasion ; for my acts and opinions, as your Recorder, have been suddenly and widely chal lenged ; and those imputed to me which I deliberately dis claim. The administration of justice, gentlemen, in this place, requires gre a t care and circumspection ; a fact im pressed upon me by several persons on my appointment. The reason is, that the inhabitants of Hull are charac terised by a lively and watchful interest in the administra tion of justice ; and I honour them for being so; frankly avowing that in my opinion the sterner the scrutiny, the more salutary for the judge, and, consequently, for the public. The only condition I would impose is, that of candour, and carefully ascertaining facts. I am one of those, who utterly unmoved by any amount of popular clamour, yet own a cordial allegiance to public opinion, especially to that of a great Christian community. " There is no better guardian of judicial inte . grity, said a late celebrated politician, " than publio op nion," and in that observation I cheerfully concur. I think it right, then, especially as the public mind is at this moment wor thily and anxiously addressed to the greater subject of crime and punishment—and especially to that of juvenile delinquency —t o explain briefly what are the fixed princi pals of criminal jurisprudence on which I act, and have hitherto acted in this court, with reference to adult, but especially youthful, criminals. lam anxious publicly to state them from this place, that henceforth you and I, at least, should not misunderstand each other. Bear with me, then, for a short time, if, at a crisis of great public moment, and also, under special circumstances, entitling me personally, as I think you will believe, to your con siderate attention, I avail myself of th e o pp or t un it y hap pily afforded by alight calendar, to exercise the undoubted right of a judge in addressing a grand jury. A nobleman now of great authority in the state, twenty years ago, when a minister in the House of Commons, and on a painfully interesting occasion, thus vindicated that right. "It is - strictly the duty of a criminal judge, to explain to the grand jury that which he conceives to be the origin and cause of those crimes which form the subject matter of his address." —Gentlemen, the root of the whole matter with which we have now to deal, lies in the notion of punishment ; a word representing a visible and ordinary reality, but in volving as deep and difficult considerations as can challenge the minds and consciences of Christian men. I find it im possible to detach from punishment the idea of retribu tion : but' only in that sense which the great Locke has annexed to the word. "In the state of nature" he says, "one' man comes by no absolute or arbitrary power to use a criminal, when be has got him into his hands, accodtsling to the passionate heats or boundless extravagancy of hii own will ; but only to retribute to him, as far as calm rea son and conscience dictate, what is proportionate to his transgressions." The retribution, gentlemen, which I mean, is the conviction brought home to the conscience of the offender; by such pain and coercion as are compatible with humanity, that ho cannot,' and shall not, break the laws of the land with impunity ; inasmuch as crime as suredly, when detected, entails punishment. Were it to be supposed otherwise—were laws denuded of all thet them life and force—their sanctions, they would become mere dead letters, and society be speedily crushed under the foot of fraud and violence. But here I shall cite ano ther authority, that of the illustrious Sir Matthew Hale, as pure a Christian and as great a judge as ever dignified the administration of justice in this or any country. "Re gularly," he says, "the true, or at least the principal and of punishments, is to deter men from the breach of laws, so that they may not offend, and so not suffer et all ; and the inflicting of punishments, in most cases, is more for example, and to prevent evils, than to punish." Thus both these good and great men exclude from the notion of punishment the element of vindictiveness; and well we Christian men may do so, too ; bearing in mind that the actions of mankind are weighed by him whose eye never alumbereth nor sleepeth—the final and only judge of mankind ; who has also awfully told us —"Vengeance belongeth unto 'me, T will reco m p ense saith the Lord." It may be gathered from what I have said, that the'main end of human punishment is the prevention of future crime; not only by the detected of fender, but by others, who may witness or hear of, that detection and punishment ; or as the great Roman orator ha, said, with equal beauty and brevity—ut metes, vide licet, ad mimes, pcena ad paucos preveniat, that is, that the infliction of punishment should fall on few, but the fear of it on all. Thus in decreeing and awarding punishment, both le ,islator and judge ought to have their eye on two parties—the criminal and the bystander. While repudi ating the idea of vengeance or vindictiveness, however, let us never forget that we have to deal with one who has ac tually, and perhaps repeatedly, violated the laws essential for the protection of society, and who stands altogether on a different footing from him who has not done so, but, ou the contrary, deserves well of society for the noble constancy with which he has resisted almost irresistible temptation, enduring the keen pangs of want amidst surrounding plehty. Theformer we regard with a pity tinctured with great stern ness ; the latter with a warm and admiring sympathy. I would lay it down, therefore, not only as imprudent, but positive wickedness, to inflict the slightest degree of punish ment more than to suffice to ensure the attainment of the salutary ends proposed ; and this, not only because we in so doing-exceed the authority delegated to us by the su preme Lawgiver, but because we may brutalise the offender; we are like to extinguish every spark of compunction that may yet smoulder with him ; and unhappily convert a cri minal into a victim. Gentlemen, it is the glory of ou r age, however, that ou r criminallegislation is becoming yearly actuated by a more humane spirit. It is a vast ex periment that we are making on human nature ; but still, as I said on taking m'y seat in this place, mercy and justice must reflect each other's rays, or neither deserves its name. The practical problem is, how so leniently to administer the criminal law as not to encourage, perhaps I might say ev en tempt, the commission of crime; for there are brutal natures whom nothing but a rod of iron can subdue and keep in awe, on whom lenity is thrown away, and as fool ish and mischievous, as severity is often cruel and even cri minal. The Legislature and the country at large are now pondering these consideration with peculiar anxiety, after the great change in our system of secondary punishments, to which I called the attention of the grand jury at the last, sessions—the abolition to a large extent of transportation: Society is being forced in self-defence as we all ominously feel, to contemplate and provide against grave contin gencies. But, gentlemen, there is another aspect of this great question, on which the eyes of the nation seem at this moment fixed, as those of one man ; and it appears to me, too, with an enlightened philanthropy of spirit —a comprehensive consideration of cause and effect—of ten eenciee and consequencies, which are of the happiest augury for practical movement, the Legislature and individuals. L e t me explain my meaning, and so at once come to the great and trying question of juvenile delin quency, by supposing a case with which, for ought you, at preoent knew, you and I may have to deal at these very sessions. Suppose a youth should come before us with some eight, ten, or twelve previous convictions for felony and other offences, as it were, suspended from his neck in miserable profusion ! Should such an one stand at that bar, and be found guilty, what—as matters as prevent stand- is to be done with him ? Am Ito render the `ad ministration of justi ce r idi cu l ous, that bar cont empt ib le ;` and ourselves laughing-stocks, by passing a light sentence, quickly ensuring hi s return' to us again and ag a i n, worse and worse ! Are we not from the past to judge Abe fu r ture ? and that if w e go on as we have begun, i n weak dal= fiance with duty, so w il l he, serv i n g only a l onger - appren ticeship to crime ! The question was asked of the awful Author of our Faith—" How often shall my brother sin against me, an d I forg i ve hi m ? Till seven times ?" And the sublime answer wa s, say not _unto thee,_ until seven times ; b u t un til seventy times seven !" But he whose heart is most thoroughly suffused with thiee spirit, and who w ou ld f ree ly forgive a personal ifijury gften as it is inflicted, stands clothed with a sacred public' trust, when charged with the protection of society, by yin- , dicating the authority of the law ; and is called upon fAith fully to discharge a different class of duties —to be just, and fear not. But I will tell you how the noble spirit of which I spoke would influence such an one —it would make him see, in the offender before him, through the thick black haze of guilt, one to be reclaimed ; feeling that to treat hi m as, irreclaimable, is to make him such; and, in so doing, entail on those doing so a fearfal amotint of ; guilt in the eyes of Him whose mercies we ourselves would fain experience every moment of our lives. Such an one as I speak of would not expend the force of his convic tions on sentimental expressions or desultory efforts, but on actions regulated by untiring patience and prudence. He would look with true Samaritan eye on every youthful delinquent as a " firebrand to be plucked out of the burn ing," and for that purpose would not be too nice or fearful in approaching the flame. He would say --I reg ar d your acts as evidence of a vicious habit of mind, and a very little of this reflection would startle him by suggesting 'the question, how was that habit first acquired? And by and by he wou ld f ee l th e humbling conviction, that to a large extent h e hi mse lf, as a member of the community, was responsible for the guilt before him ; and would say with some of old, we are verily guilty concernin g our bro ther. And so indeed , we are, indeed, in these times, the vo i ce of God is u loudly telling and if we negle c t th at voice, let us well beware. The consequences may be equally serious, individually and nationally. Gentlemen, let us not de ceive ourselves, but each ask himself —what have I done individually to abate this crying and alarming evil of juvenile delinquency? To arrest t this cancerous taint, which is fast eating its way to the very vitals of the com munity ? Gentlemen, let us ask ourselves, what is the dif ference in the eye of God between us —all of us guilty before Rim—and the poor wretch who may presently , stand at that bar ? One glaring difference is this—we have had virtuous and watchful parents, training us from childhood, by precept, and example ; all our wants cared for, and our eyes fixed only on the sunny side of life— the lines having fallen to us in pleasant places. But here is a wretch w h o h as suc k e d in guilt and misery with his mother's milk ! He has seen only starvation, drunkenness, brutality, around him ! He has been positively coerced into crime ; poor soul, when he would have done good, evil has been present with him : no man hath cared for his soul ; and the selfish world has looked on in complacency, while this poor creature was being hurried along from -the cradle to the gallows : or if that world has interfered a t all, it has been only topunish that which itself had caused! Gentlemen, what can Ido ? I sit here as a judge, to ad minister the law of the land, and it is in my power to im son such an one for a lengthened period ; to inflict bard Mout, and p e r sona l chastisement; and .c on d emn to many ;peers OE teenal seevit t udee ..Do you tleinle,tt is a greea bl e t o me to do this ? And when I have discharged my sad duty, I ask you —are you yourselves, as Christian men, in your consciences satisfied and tranquilly content that " the law should take its course ?" What course ? When dismissed from the gaol, possibly with a soured spirit, or, let it be hoped, with the germ of better feelings in his heart—what becomes of him ? No fond parent or kind friend is waiting outside the prison walls for the little outcast, to nourish the faintly repentant spirit; no one cries " God bless him!" and in desperation he returns to his old haunts, compa nions, and crimes. What is this but to thriut a patient, just recovering from a deadly disease, again into the fatal focus of contagion ? Gentlemen, would any one of us deal thus with a son o f our own? And if we would not, where is our excuse before Him who says, " It is not the will of your Father which is in Heaven, that one of these little ones should perish ?" Gentlemen, the expe rienced physician who sits beside me, in the person of your honoured mayor, would tell you of two great doctrines of his healing art—that a constitutional disorder requires constitutional treatment ' • but above all, that p reven ti on is better than cure : and these two doctrines hold equally good, in the administration of the criminal law. We have two great objects : we wish to cure the moral disease— to reclaim-the criminal ; but we would also fain have no disease at all—no criminal to reclaim !I, for my part, should wish to see my business in this court diminishing sessions by sessions, and, if you choose, that in my civil court increase instead. I wish to diminish your gaol ex penses, and supersede, as much as possible, your costly machinery for d e t ec ti ng, pun i s hi ng, and, perhaps, ' after all, only propagating crime ! The question narrows itself thus, practically. What shall we do when the young criminal quits the prison ? How shall we prevent his getting there? Gentlemen, as to the former, I have not the least hesitation in thus publicly declaring, and that in the most ardent and solemn language at my command, and as the result of all my own observa tion and experience, and communication with some of the best men of the age, that we must have, with out delay, reformatory institutions of some sort or other, or be held accessaries before or afte r th e f ac t, to the destruction of great masses of the rising genera tion. Coming events cast their shadows before • and we may discern grea t ti mes approac hi ng, i n which' the consideration of this very question will prove of such mo meat, us consequence that, to postpone or trifle with it, will prove to have been a sort of national suicide, or the consequence of a judicial blindness. There are undoubt edly serious practical difficulties environing the subject; but what great exigency requiring to be dealt with, ever was without them ! And these difficulties I believe to be, though, great, by no means insurmountable. • Their exist ence should serve only as a stimulus to commemorate exer tions, if we be really sincere and in earnest. I protest, for my own part, that I never saw so many, such various, and overpowering motives to prompt, systematic, wise, and generous exertion as combine to urge on us the establish ment of reformatory institutions for the criminal youth of this country. Our posterity will be ashamed of us if, with this monster evil scaring our eyes, and crying out aloud in our ears, we fail to attempt a reme d y f or it : if this signal opportunity be indolently and wickedly neglect ed. And we, too, thinking and calling ourselves the while "a great people ! But, gentlemen, it may be far and glori ously otherwise. The next generation of children may exhibit the results of a wise, generous, pious policy, worthy of a Christian people ' • and those who come a ft er us w ill b e proud of bei ng our descendants. Foreign nations may herealer say, here, was a truly great people ; Who at the very moment when the - b - h7oftliaze of war, perhaps of exter mination, was enshrouding themselves and Europe, yet calmly and grandly obeyed the voice of conscience, and the. dictate of duty, settin g their inner house in order, reclaim ing the guilty of its population, and shielding the unpro tected—becoming a very father of the fatherless ! They will tenderly echo the invocation of the Roman poet : " majoruin umbris, tenuern et sine pondere terrain, Spirantescpia crocos, et in urnil perpetuum ver, Qui psrceptorem, Banal voluere parentis Esse loco !" But gentlemen in so great an undertaking, why should we show a want of fitting vigour, and system ? Why not at once attack the enemy in front, in flank, in rear—and also cut off his reserves and reinforcements ? I repeat it, prevention is infinitely better than cure ; and that preven tion is ,to be successfully sought for, only in religious edu cation. This is the mighty lever to which every one of us can put his hand, with what vigour he may, and with the approving eye of God upon him. Why do we so anxi oualy, and with such effort and sacrifice, educate our own children? For the very reason why we should assist—l say very advisedly —assist the poor in educating their's ! Do not foolishly supersede their own efforts, bat tell them to put their osyn sho u ld ers V I th e w h ee l , and then aid them vigilantly and discreetly. Why should we not all, indivi dually for instance, in our respective spheres of action, pledge eurselves to give a preference, in employment, to those children who have longest well conducted them selves, in such institutions as lam speaking of? Let the state, - if - ynerwill, exert its splendid energies in the cause of education ; and where we find it encountering difficul ties which - are too much for it, then let us come for ward, each in our respective spheres, and assist it by our private exertions. Lot every denomination of Christians be at its post, contending with the common e nem y, ignor ance and vice ; and then shall the blessings of Him that was ready to perish, come upon all. As far as may be let compulsory and vo l un t ary pu bli c and private education, go hand in hand, nobly rivalling each other in imparting moral and religious instruction. Gentlemen, so deeply do I feel these things that I assure you I would rather—fixing my eye on my death bed, and anticipating the reflexions of that awful moment—be the founder of a ragged-school, a Sunday-school, a school of any sort of description which taught the heart its duties to God and men ; I would rather I say, than to reflect on such an act, than strive to cheat thy departing spirit with the dreams of a glittering chaplet of earthly immortality, in respect of anything for which short-sighted human vanity or ambiti on might pant ; and I believe there are many good men now living—oh ! would that I were among them !—who, for what they have done in this direction, shall shine as stars for ever and ever. Gentlemen, I have now tried to explain the views on which I act,, with circumspect anxiety, in awarding punishment from this seat of justice, each particular case standing on its own merits, as disclosed, at the time, to him charged with the serious responsibility of dealing with it, and pos sessing the beet means of information concerning it. No one in this court can feel more acutely than I do, for those with whom it is my stern duty to deal most severely , and with regard to juvenile*offenders, I sometimes think as I gaze at them from this chair, would that your profligate and abandoned parents stood in your place ! And let us hope that the legislature may presently find some means of deal ing with them, discreetly and effectively ; thereby laying the axe at the root of the tree. Gentlemen, these are my real 'sentiments, my deep-seated convictions. They are not opinions hastily adopted for a paltry purpose, but re sults of many a long year of anxious construction, which hail taught me the equal danger of precipitancy anal pro crastination in this matter. If anything that has fallen from me on this occasion shall be attended with the small. est good effect, in any quarter, by way of warning, en couragement, or m eresuggestion, I shall not regret the some what hard-necessity which has made me thus speak out. Gentlemen, my conduct in this seat—my acts and motives have been entirely misapprehended, and consequently mis represented, and that far and wide ; and God forbid that I should say intentionally, but precipitately. It may not signify much, perhaps, to any who hear me, but my feel ings have been pained not a little by the way in which I indiffe ren t par t s cif the kin have seen mys e lf spoken of (compelled myself to be silent) gdom, by those who were entirely mistaken as to facts. But believe me,"gentlemen, my heart is a stranger to resentment, and I know how to put a libe ral construction on the motives and intentions of those who, I think, have dealt rather hardly with mine. I can do fellow worms worms ; be but t ° al l of nothing more i n thi s seat, I will at least try to show an example of o b e di ence to the divine precept, "Let your moderatio n b e known unto all men ! 0, ge n tl emen, l e t nevus anxiousust,eaek the boutt g h u e id o a p n in ce ion of s a o n f our fellow worms; but all of us ieek the guidance of art en lighted conscience, in the discharge of whatsoever duties we have cast anon us. As for myself, let me; congratulate you on the lightness of our calendar, and the diminished member of prisoners in our gaol, 37 fewer than they were on the sth January, ac 18'53, a result in no s ma ll d egree at tributable to the ft that punishment is found to be here ality—bUt much mo re t o th e t ru l y admirable discipline p gaolcfor which you are indebted to the zeal and dis cretion of the humane governor, and the 'indefatigable teaching of the exemplary chaplain. I myself have taken pains to acquaint myself personally with these matters, and know thoroughly the economy of the gaol; and I never saw more made of their opportunities by responsible offi cials. Gentlemen the tru e i n t eres t s o f h umani t y always suffers fro m a spurious sentimentality ; and I, for one, can never sanction anything tending to make a criminal for one moment forget that he is such—obliterating the dis tinction betweeu the honest man and the rogue. A. gaol, gentlemen, must be a gaol, and made so uncom fortable as to be repulsive—it ought to be shunned, and with good cause. But let me end with saying that if a wise and generous leeislation c ou ld b u t convert the portals of a prison i n t o the entrance of a Reformatory Asylum, it would, in the' case of the unhappy youthful criminal, be really a passing from moral death unto life. Gentlemen, if you, as representing a large, important, and enlightened section of the'community, entertain these opinions, seize the favourable opportunity of saying as much ; and iri so doing, reflect honour upon Hull and upon your fellow townsmen. Gentlemen, I have now done. I have no re nwka to make upon the state of the calendar, because there are but few cases comparatively for trial ; and this is the vindication of our proceedings here. The learned Recorder then briefly alluded to one case in the calendar, and dismissed the grand jury to their duties, with the ob servation that, as all crimes had their origin in intemper ance or ignorance, those were two causes to which it was their duty to pay particular attention. The grand jury having brought in a batch of true bills, the court proceeded with the trials of prisoners. In the course of the day the grand jury came into court and their foreman, Robert Harrison, Esq., delivered in the following presentment : To Samuel Warren, Esq., Q.C., D.C.L., F.R.S., and Recorder of the Borough of Hull. Sir,—The grand jury having heard this day with plea sure and admiration, the remarks addressed by you on the subject of secondary punishments, as connected with re formatory institutions for juvenile criminals, are fully im pressed with the great importance of the subject, and will have pleasure in using their best endeavours to forward such an object, satisfied from facts, and information dif fused through the bench, press, and other sources, that it is the imperative duty of every individual, and all associ ated bodies, to do all in their power for the purpose of securing a full and efficient trial of the principles of pre vention of crime, as contra-distinguished from what has been too long in operation—that of its punishment. I have pleasure in subscribing myself, on behalf of the grand jury, yours most respectfully, ROBERT HARRISON', Chairman. Grand Jury-room, Town-hall, • Hull, Jan. 5, 1854. PACKET VANE LONDONIARRY.

Wynyard Park, 28th Dec., 1853. have read • in your paper of the 26th instant, a letter commenting on one addressed to Mr. Thomson by me, and already before the public, and although I hope that, in common no doubt with many ofyour readers, I may be excused for not being able to understand the intended meaning of several parts of that letter, or what the writer really intended to express, I infer from a perusal of the whole, that although he seems to vindicate the conduct of the Donaghadee committee,. he substantially admits and corroborates the de scription given in my former letter of their fickle and irresolute conduct. He admits that the Donaghadee committee, in the absence of himself alone, unanimously agreed to certain resolutions pledging themselves to co-operate with the Belfast committee in an application to Government fora commission to inquire and report as to the two poiks of departure on either coast. He admits that. he himself was apprised beforehand of their intended meeting ; he admits that they then attended a meeting of the mayor and principal merchants in Bel fast, and proposed to them the resolutions which they (the Donaghadee committee) had previously drawn up, and that this same Donaghadee committee subsequently changed their minds in a manner which must have ap peared to . to Belfast merchants most supremely ridicu lous, and sent to apprise the latter —who had assembled for the express purpose of meeting the Donaghadee committee—that they must decline for the present to co operate with the Belfast people. He expressly admits that the Donaghadee committee, with the exception of their most distinguished member, Lord Dufferin, and another member, thus made volte. face at his express bidding, on the miserable pretence that, in the absence of one member wh o h a d been duly summoned, their "'course of proceeding was informal, as they did not represent the unanimous views of the Donaghadee committee, though they could attend the conference as private individuals!" ' With regard to his own reasons for ordering the Donaghadee com mittee to unsay all that they had before said; I collect from his letter that they are that he thinks 'that the time hag 'not yet arrived for a combined effort to apply to Government to take the proper steps to establish suitable harbours; If this be so, in the name of com mon sense, why get up the Donaghadee and Portpatrick committee at all? Why was the meeting held at Do naghadee, and were long speeches made about Do naghadee and Portpatrick harbours, and the advan tages of the shortest sea passage, ,&c., if the next day the same committee, at the dictation of one individual, were to turn round and say, "We will do nothing ; the time has not arrived ?" No wonder that the Belfast people laughed at the whole procedure as the height of imbecility and puerility. Will not the public naturally say, either this Donag hadee committee are doubtful of their alleged advan tages and afraid of an impartial commission, or, at the bidding of an individual, they are acting the part of the dog in the manger, and will neither do anything to get their own sea passage, nor co-operate with any one else in getting one. My object has been, for many years, and is, to secure the short sea passage, and I fought for years for Donag hadee and Portpatrick. I was borne down in this, and after it had slumbered for years, and I despaired of success, another line by Loch Ryan was proposed by the Belfast merchants. lat once threw what influ ence I possessed into this scheme as offering a prospect of success from the practical men who seemed to head it. , : A Donaghadee committee then started up and, commenced an active opposition, and, owing to this, both schemes seemed likely to fall to the ground ; but, good sense having prevailed for a time, au effort was made to procure a co-operation of both bodies to ascer tain which was the proper one. This effort at first suc ceeded, but, on its being upset by the 'interference of one person, I saw at once that nothing was to be hoped from the llonaghadee committee, which, for all practi cal purposes, was evidently defunct, and therefore I at once determined to throw any influence I possess into the hands of the Loch Ryan committee, and trust to the business habits, power, wealth, interest, and influence of the great town of Belfast for the attainment of so desirable an object as the short sea passage. It is a remarkable coincidence that since this corres pondence commenced a gieat meeting, headed by-the Marquis of Downshire, took place at the other side of county Down, to discuss the relative merits of the harbours at Ardglass and Carlingford, and that that meeting, composed of the leading persons in that part of the county, adopted the very course that was at first decided upon by the Donaghadee committee, and afterwards so unceremoniously reversed, and deter-' mined to apply to Government for a commission to inquire and report upon the comparative merits of the harbours at Ardglass and Carlingford. This shags con clusively what is the opinion of the enlightened and impartial public as to the best mode of going about such a matter, and .surely no one will have the hardihood to say that Ardglass and Carlingford can offer more urgent and immediate claims to attention than Portpatrick, Donaghadee, and Loch Ryan. A moment's reflection will show that the Carl ingford committee were 'right, and that the Donaghadee com mittee have committed a fatal error in changing their position, and have thereby missed the surest means of attaining their object. For if it be true, as alleged by them, that Donaghadee and Portpatrick are the true points of departure, the Government Commissioners, finding the harbours already there at a vast expense to the public, would, of course, have reported in favour of this line, and the point being once established in favour of these ports, railway speculators would have only been toe glad to invest their capital in the it-lime diate"extensitml of railways to these points, as offering a `secuie and - remunerative investment in a line destined to become the highway between the North of Ireland and Great Britain.
