The Deputy Recorder, in charging the grand jury,
said he was quite sure that the jury and everyone else
would concur with him in his very sincere

pression of

regret at the • cause which rendered it necessary for bins
to preside on the present occasion. He alludedto the
indisposition of the' recorder, whose valuable remarks
from that bench on former occasions would no doubt be
familiar to them all. Alluding to the state of the
calendar, he remarked that there was not a very large
number of prisoners, neither did the list include any
very serious cases of robbery. One Would naturally sup-
pose that in a large commercial. town like Liverpool we
should have for trial numbers of people, who stood in
the relation of the employed, in connection with the
large commercial and mercantile establishments in the
town ; but there were no marked eases of this kind in the
present calendar. There.was one ease, in which a woman

was charged with stealing a quantity of property from a
sailor, and a policeman who was on duty at the time was

iot particularly for the purpose of saying that it was to be
lamented that a person placed in such a position of trust,
and whose especial duty it was to protect the property
• of the public, should be charged with such an offence.'
,But he should at the same time remark that .it was
" very seldom indeed that they heard of such offences on
ng the part of members of the police force. The consta-

bnlary in this town were a larre body of men, and •a
body of men who •from time to time wero receiving'

into their ranks new and untried officers ; but, netwitli:
tanding this, one seldom or ever heard of any of them
charged with felony. Indeed, he might say, for
himself that in the course of his experience. he never
before recollected the case of a policeman in the
town being charged with such an offence as this, ar sine
out of .the duties of his office. There were,
true, occasionally cases of violence, on the')

it • was

for sometimes

very considerable provodation; but still, _
instances of violence happened, the officer was gen
rally severely punished. Such cases even as thes,,
however, 'did not happen among the officers of the force
as frequently as they might do in so large a body of
men. But cases of dishonesty were almostivhcilly unknown

gineer in the
hav,in

le jury, as suggested to him by the case
in question, for the purpose of showing how very sel-
dom it was that such charges were preferred against the'
force." Having remarked that there were no cases in
the calendar which called for any special observations
