CRIHIATAL COOIiT.-(TDIS DAY.)

The April session of the above Court was opened this
morning, before the Right. Hon. the Lord Mayor, the
Right Hon. the Recorder, Aldermen Hunter, Sir G.
Carroll, Sir R. Carden, and Wire ; Mr. Sheriff Mug-
geridge, Mr. Sheriff Crosley, and Mr. Under-Sheriff A.
Crosley.
The first edition of the calendar contains the names
of 131 prisoners.

The Recorder delivered a very brief charge to the
Grand Jury, and, after observing that there were several
very serious cases to be disposed of at the present
session, he said they would not entail any additional
labour upon the grand jury, because the bills referring
to the more serious of them were found at the last
session. The only case of murder they would have to
inquire into was a charge against a woman, named
Bryant, of having cruelly destroyed the life of her child,
by leaving it in the snow during the inclement weather.
Some doubt might arise whether the child was alive at
the time she deposited it in the place where it was found,
but as the prisoner admitted that the child was hers,
and that she had at all events placed it in the snow, it
appeared to him that it would be the safer course for
them to find the bill, and leave the matter
to be more fully inquired into before the petty jury.
The Recorder then said that he regretted to observe that
the crime of perjury appeared to be very much on the
increase, and there were several most serious cases of
that description to be disposed of at the present session.
Theee e offence
been forged notes, which had up to a
n rare occurrence, appeared also to
rtperiod o f passingee
o f
be

very much increased, and he said he mentioned this
in order that tradesmen might be upon their guard
against frauds of such a description.
The grand jury then retired, and the Court was ad-
journed for an hour, in order to give the Recorder and
the other city officials an opportunity of being present
at the Special Court of Aldermen.
