SURREY SESSIONS—(This Day.)

These sessions held by adjournment from Reigate took
Placeo this morning at the ~e=sions house, Newington°"rtCllewaY, before Thomas Puckle, Esq , chairman, J. E.
,"nsim, Esq., deputy chairman, and a full bench of
'alitistrates. The cilender contained the names of 34
Prisoners for trial. Twenty-nine for felony, and five for
laisdemeanonr. There were besides two persons on bail,
"wh
°se names are not on the calendar. The grand jury
'laving been sworn, the Chairman said that there du: not
aPPear anything in the calendar requiring any special
observations" from him. The calendar appeared very
light in comparison with that of last year, but that
a,
chiefly caused by the recent introduction of the New
,Pulinal Justice Act, which empowered magistrates at
ettY Sessions or Police Courts to deal summarily with
many cases of felony where the offenders pleaded guilty,
otherwise there would be more than three times the
slumber of prisoners for trial. That Act of Parliament,
he Was happy to say, did not interfere with trial by jury,
its the offenders could come here for trial if they pleased.
tie must impress upon their minds the necessity of.
!larnining all the witnesses at the back of the respective
bills,and before they ignored any he should advise them
14:3) send into the court for the original depositions taken
before the committing magistrate, as be was sure the
cases would not be sent for trial unless a great deal of
suspicion was attached to them. In conclusion, if a pri-
-linner was indicted for a felony and the evidence showed
. that it was only an attempt, they must find the bill for
thin latter and send the prisoner for trial. The learned
Chairman then dismissed the jury to their room.
