The Learned JUDGE addressed the following charge to the Grand Inquest. I regret I cannot congratulate you upon the state of the calendar. It is exceedingly heavy, both as respects the numbsr of prisoners and the offences with which they are charged. It is indeed one of the heaviest, if not the heaviest, that has occurred since the assizes were removed to Liverpool, at least at the Sum mer Assizes. There are the names of 92 prisoners in the calendar as it stands ; there are, I understand, five or six other cases, who do not appear yet to be added to it : and the number will probably be increased before your labours are over. Of the ninety-two prisoners, whose names ap pear in the calendar, six are charged with wilful murder, 12 with manslaughter, 13 with malicious injuries to the person, 16 with burglary, and 8 with highway robbery ac companied with violence to the persons of those attacked. Many of these are aggravated cases ; and there are be sides, in the calendar, as I believe, instances of every other offence contained within the catalogue of crime. It is - not — surprising, that in the southern division of this great county, containing as it does the two populous and commercial towns of Manchester and Liverpool, that the calendar should be heavy; but it is not easy to assign a cause for its being so unusually heavy at this particular time. It may be acci dental. Bat, at all events, I do not think I should occupy your valuable time by speculating upon causes which probably, after all, may not be the true causes, and without any sufficient materials to hazard an opinion with confidence. I find, however, from a perns4 of the depo sitions, one unfailing cause for four-fifths of these crimes is, as it is in every_ other calendar, the besetting sin of drunkenness. In almost all cases of personal violence and injury, the scene is a public-house or a beershop, and the parties are exasperated and inflamed by intoxication. So long as the habits of fhe common people are those of intemperance whenever an opportunity is afforded—so long as they are incapable of recreation and social enjoy ment, except that of drinking to excess in a public-house, much improvement can hardly be expected. It is, how ever, earnestly to be hoped the efforts which have been made and are making in the right direction—by the en couragement of temperance societies, and inducing a taste for other recreations in 'the intervals of labour than the erroneous and degrading one of intoxication, will gradually effect a change in the national character in this moat important particular. Ido not purpose to com ment to you in detail upon each of the cases in this calen der, nor indeed could I do so even if I were so disposed; for, as you may easily believe that with such a mass of more than 90 depositions, and some of them very long, I have been unable to do more than make a hasty perusal of those which appear to me of the greatest importance. I regret this the less as I am aware I am addressing gen- tlenien, many of whom have bad very great experience as magistrates, and to whom the points occurring in the great mass of cases will be perfectly familiar. One of the most remarkable cases in the calendar is that of two lads, one 17 and the other 12 years of age, named Joseph Dean and James Seddon. They are charged with the wil ful murder of another boy of 12 years of age. The cir cumstances stated in the depositions are such that if C,ere is sufficient reason for believing the death of the deceased was occasioned by the injuries received from the prisoners, there is nothing to reduce the charge below that of wil ful murder. With regard to one of the prisoners, Dean, who is only twelve years of age, it will be a question for the jury who try the case whether there be such a degree of intelligence, or the power of distinguishing between right and wrong, as would constitute tbat discretion which the law requires to make him a responsible agent. Under seven years of age, the presumption of law is, there is not sufficient discretion to constitute a responsible Agent; but between seven and fourteen, it is a question for the jury who try the case; but upon which it sill not be ne cessary for you to enter. There is a charge against Robert Parmes No. 55 in the calendar, for the murder of a woman, named Beteson, who was found dead in a pond, at Aintree, under circumstances somewhat extraordinary, as the place where the body was found was within a few yards of several booths in whieh mere a number of per sons. The case against the prisoner rests mainly, if not entirely upon 11;s having been the last person seen in her company, and giving some equivocal, and, as it appears, false, ,account of what had bec ome o f h er . If t h e evi dence is such as to lead you to the conclusion that the prisoner might be convicted of the charge, if nothing more appears, it will be tiroper to Sod the bill ; but if the evi dence appears to you such that though it may raise strong suspicions it will not be sufficient to warrant a conviction, it is better not to find the bill; because, if the bill is found the prisoner must be tried, and if the evidence is insuf ficient, be acquitted, and he never can be tried again if further evidence should afterwards be found; whereas, if the bill is not found, and further evidence should arise hereafter, a fresh bill may be forced and the man put upon his trial, and so a failure of ju'tice may probably be avoided. A man of the name of Richard Wignall, N. 86 in the calendar, is charged with the wilful murder of his wife. If the evidence appears before you, as it is stated in the depositions, you can hardly do otherwise than return a bill for wilful murder, as there does not appear to be any such provocation upon the part of the wife as would re duce the case to one of manslaughter. In the case of William Clapham, No. 53 in the calendar, who is charged with the wilful murder of Abraham Tweedalq, you will have to consider whether there were any cir cumstances which reduce the offence to manslaughter only. If great and unnecessary violence be used, and with a deadly instrument, the party using such violence, and such instrument, will not, if be o c c as i on death, they' _.eby be guilty of less than murder, though be may have re ceived some provocation from the deceased. The only provocation in the present case was an endeavour by the deceased to save another person from an unprovoked at tack by the prisoner with the same dangerous instrument If tf. - -q to th ,nere is any question as ae state of the prisoner's mind, that is not for your consideration, but for the jury which will have to try him. There is a case in the ca lendar, No. 54, where a woman, named Davidson, is charged with the wilful murder of her infant children. 1 have c - Irefully perused the depositions, and I do not think there is sufficient ground for the charge of wilful murder. The prisoner appears to have been delivered of one child in a cab, and of the other in a field immediately after she had quitted the cab; and one of them, the weaklier of the two, was deposited under a hedge, in such a situation that had it remained there it would have died ; but it was found, and taken away within about an hour after the delivery, and it ultimately died in about a week. The surgeons can not, they say, attribute the death either to the exposure, or to any act done by the mother. I, therefore, recommended that the should be sent to you for exposing the child w;.l - cause its death, and not for murder. - sides, in the calender, no fewer than eight cases of bigamy ; and I cannot but suspect, from circumstance stated in some -f There are 4e o..ne depositions, that many persons be lieve that, if the separation takes place by consent, and the'parties live apart for several years, and have no in- ...,6cturi again, eacn la at liberty to If such be the case, the sooner such an erro neous and most mischievous opinion is corrected the better.

It is probable there are many other cases in the calender upon which, under other circumstances. I might feel it, perhaps, important to make some remarks ; but, having drawn your attention to the most prominent cases, and being unwilling, with so much business as you aye by the circumstance of having lent himself to the purposes of a combination which never could be too much repre hended. It was not to be endured in this country, that any man, or set of men, should arrogate the right of pre venting other men working for who they pleased, for what they pleased, and when they pleased, in order to oblige have been perfectly ready to execute any act, .however atrocious, with this view, there could be no doubt; 'but, fortunately for him, and for the prosecutor, the wound be the 'cons, pulses as seem ti ave actu .d him, and abOv all of the use of such a deadly weapon as the knife upon occasions of sudden quarrel, a most unmanly and cruel practice, he should feel it his duty to pass the sentence of transports- ten years' transport; CUTTING AND WOUNDING Michael Kilcourae, _ _ Walton-on-the -Hill, felonious '6. was indicted for having, at ly and maliciously wounded From the evidence on the part of the prosecutor it ap peared that Blue was a workman on the works of the Li verpool and Bury Railway Company at Waiton, near this town. On the Eth May last, in the afternoon, the pri soner, accompanied by four or five other menevrent up to the prosecutor, with a bludgeon in his hand, and asked for a job.. The prosecutor told him he was not the " gaffer, the person who usually employed the men, but he would be there at six o'clock. Immediately afterwards the prisoner struck him three times with great violence upon the face, felling him to the ground. The prisoner was with great difficulty secured ; and from the testimony of Mr. Woods, surgeon of N,Valton, the prosecutor ap peared to have sustained considerable injury. and remained for fourteen days under his care. There was a contusion on the right jaw, but blood was only drawn upon the inside of the mouth from the parts having come in contact with the teeth. The JUDGE expressed a doubt whether this was a cut ting and wounding within the meaning of the act. Mr. FLETCHER, for the prosecution, quoted " The Queen versus Smith, 8 Carrington and Payne," where Lord Denman held that a breaking of the skin from which blood flowed in the interior of the mouth came within the act. The JUDGE said this was an authority in point. The prisoner was found guilty of a common assault Sentence was deferred. MANSLAUGHTERS Francis Magrorry, 32, was indicted for the man slaughter of Hugh Boyd, at Orrell, in this county. The parties were railway labourers. The deceased. when in a state of intoxication, challenged the prisoner to fight. Eventually they fought, and in the second round the deceased fell against a tree, from the effects of which he died. The jury returned a verdict of guilty, and the prisoner was sentenced to two days' imprisonment. Thomas Ivey, 24, was indicted for the manslaughter of William Rimmer The prisoner was ostler at the Lamb Inn, Wavertree. Whilst he was asleep the deceased shook the prisoner, who suddenly struck him, and he died soon afterwards. The jury found a verdict of not guilty. John Franklin, 45, described as a gentleman, was in dicted for the manslaughter of Michael Fitzpatrick, at Middleton, on the 21st of July last. The de i of the man Fitzpatrick was caused whilst he was in a state of intoxication at the Old Buck Inn. The prisoner was also there. A difference arose concern- for, and at last the prisone it. The deceased then required some mor , landlord brought, and he gave half-a-crown in payment When the change was brought, the deceased said it wa consented to pay .fo'r short of the proper amount; fi;r which the prisoner cor rected him. This led to a further quarrel, in which the deceased said to the prisoner he would "knock his d—d head off." The prisoner pushed the deceased away, who fell down, but got up again, and was taking off his coat to fight, going at the same time towards the prisoner, who then struck him upon the side of the head. The de ceased reeled, and the prisoner struck him again upon the face, from the effect of which he immediately fell unon the floor, not having had time to take off his'coat quarter of an hour e man, but he died in less than a The prisoner was in liquor at the Mr. POLLOCK made an able speech for the prisoner, endcavcuring to make it appear that he had struck the deceased in self-defence, and that his death was not the result of the blows he had received. The Jury found the prisoner guilty, but accompaniel their verdict with a recommendation to mercy. The JUDGE, in passing sentence upon the prisoner, said that all must regret that a person apparently respecta ble, and pursuing a most respectable profession should be placed in the situation he now occupied—convicted of manslaughter in a pothouse squabble with a drunken man, himself being in a state of partial intoxication. The case, however, presented circumstances of great extenua tion. No great violence was used notwithstanding much provocation, and his subsequent conduct bad been most proper.. The learned Judge then sentenred the prisoner to two days' imprisonmeni'iu solitary confinement The court adjourned at half-past five o'clock NISI PRIUS COURT.—YESTERDAY.

GOODFELLOW.—Joseph Hudsmith was the plaintiff, and William Goodfellow the defendant. The declaration stated that the defendant assaulted the plain tiff, forced him to go through the streets of Manchester to the police-office, and imprisoned him there. Mr. WAisoN. who appeared for the plaintiff, stated that he (plaintiff) was conductor of the Bolton . Chronicle, and the action, which was one of falsa imprisonment, arose out of the defendant being a little over-anxious in striving to get a reward offered for the apprehension of an offender, and giving the plaintiff into custody as a person who had stolen some money. lu May last a person named Glover absconded from Bolton, and took some money from his emplo}er, upon which an advertisement was put out, offering a reward of £5. The name of the party was 11(zekiah Glover, and it appeared be bad stolen .£llO from Mr. Dawson, collector of rates at Bolton. He was described as being a person about 5 feet 10, bow-legged, and rather bloated from drinking, and a very different indi vidual in appearance to the plaintiff. On the 23d of May, two days after the above notice appeared, the plaintiff, who had an uncle named Glover, and was himself called occasionally by that name, happened to go to Manchester on business, when he got into company with the de fendant, who keeps a public house. There the latter, who appeared to be on the look out for the party named in the placard when passing near the police office in company with the plaintiff. pushed him in and elinrcrati • r-- u•au him with the robbery in question. Plaintiff persist ed that he was not the party, but notwithstanding that he was given in charge, and detained at the police office A. discussion then took place between the parties, the chief constable remarking that the person who had ab sconded was said to be five feet ten, while the plaintiff was only five feet four ; neither was he bloated with drink, or his legs bandied. Notwithstanding that the description failed, the defendant persisted, upon which the plaintiff said if they had any doubtthat he belonged to Bolton, they might send there and ascertain the fact, and he would remain in custody until the result should be ascertained. A hasty messenger was accordingly despatched to Bolton, and the statement of the plaintiff being verified, be was liberated from custody ; he had, however, been subjected to con siderable annoyance, in consequence of being detained on a charge such as that which had been improperly brought . . • ing that the defendant I • •v. • •UP conduct, and he hoped the jury would award such damages as to teach him that in his over zealous ATITIPtv to get a reward, which had been offered, he mu respectable men in custody Mr. James Sorl not pu of the Manchester police, proved that the plaintiff was brought by the de fendant on the occasion alluded to, and charged with the felony. lie did not, however, consider him in custody. Inspector Dixon, of the Manchester police force, also de t dled the circumstances which occurred at the police' office. Mr. Sowler for the defendant contended that the plain tiff must be non-suited, as one of the allegations was that of falte imprisonment, whereas no false imprisonment had been proved. The learned Judge remarked that there could not be a non-suit, as besides the false imprisonment there was an assault.
