His Lordship in his chlorite to the Jury observed,
that the calendar presented a numerous I.st of of-
fenders, but that though there were many offences,
yet Com their nature their duty would be preform-
ed without much trouble or consumption of time.
sad the cases were generally within the scope of
their knowledge. Ile, however, begged to mention
one commitment. which was fur setting fire to cer-
tain premises wilfully and malicit.usly, an offence
much too common iii this country. Ile Leurued
Judge then alluded to an salon which he had that
moment been trying upon the same subject, and
strongly expressed his regret that there were those
diabolically wicked and foolish eharaiters, who
would not by such repeated experience be convinced
of the prefect absurdity of their malicious attempts,
as the loss must eventually fall upon an unofferml-
ing Hundred. He could not help saying he was
earnest in his asisiety to punish offenders of this
description; but as in the present case he believed
there would be some difficulty in bringing the of-
fence home, unless more light was thrown upon the
transaction than he was aware of; it would be expe-
dient to reject it, and some f•cts might hereafter be
discovered by which the rods of justice would be
better answered. His Lordship also noticed the
commitment for words threatening to set tire to
some properly, but which. unless accompanied by
sonic act tending to carry them into rxecutioui, was
not punishable in that Court. After shortly men-
tioneng the cases of a rape, and burglary in a cus-
tom-house. the Learned Judge said that having dis-
posed of that part of his duty, he could not help
alluding to the present agitated state of the public
mind, and declared that lie was one of those who
thought there had recently been more eloquence
brought forward than was either necessary or poli-
tic. Ile looked upon a little good plain sense as
the best commodity to be mode use of in the serums
task we had now to perform, and that it was better
to say little and do much.
