Were opened this morning. befre the Right Hon. the
Lord Mayor, the Recorder, Alderman Sir John Mus-
Rrove, and Alderman Lawrance, attended by the Sheriffs,
Under-Sheriffs, and other civic fauctionari,4.
The calendar contains the names of 71 prisoners,
being 17 from London, 39 from Middlesex, two from
Essex, five from Kent, and eight from Surrey.
The grand jury having been selected and sworn,
The RECORDER proceeded to charge them, to the fol-
lowing effect. He was very brief in bis remarks, and
simply observed that the calendar was exceedingly
light, while, as far as he could ascertain, none of the
eases presented any legal difficulty. There were, it was
true, some serious cases, but the majority of them were
of the ordinary character; and, on the whole, be was
happy to congratulate them upon their labours, this
• session, being exceedingly light.,
The grand jury then retired, and shortly afterwards,
some true bills being returned into court, the trials
commenced.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.
(THIS DAY.)
The February adjourned sessions commenced this
Morning at Westminster.
John Garrett, aged twenty-three, a young man of re•
markably reap. ctable appearance, was found guilty of
stealing two half-crowns, the monies of Peter Squire, his
master.. The prosecutor is the eminent chemist of No.
277, Oxford-street, and the prisoner was one of his as-
sistants.
Tl3e ASSISTANT JUDGE, in passing sentence, observed
that the education and character of the prisoner aggra-
vated the offence, and called for a severe punishment.
8e therefore sentenced him to be imprisoned six months
and kept to hard labour.

SIR,_TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Nln continuation of my analysis of the Grand
Mional, having already disposel'of the heavy division,
t,lhall now make a point of considering the chances of
raj, middle weights, commencing with Mr. Deacon's
„`-'alf and Half, lOst 61b. This horse has run respectably
seva • •
;,. ,rai times, and was well up in this race last year, but
;Much better suited to the two miles of a hurdle-race
