COURT WEEK.

The Spring Term Of Court Of Common
Pleas FOR this District, adjourned on Friday
evening last, after 4 tedious session of tive
days. The cases tried were all of n com.
mon-placc character We have, therefore,. no
case of special interest to report. The bus
mess oil hand, would have occupied the
time Of tho Court for the entire week, ard
longer, but from various causes, such Us not
being in complete readiness, and the indi,-
position Of one Of the leading Counsel, Ma.
jOr Clinton, some Of the most imp ortant
cases were laid over. That Of "kenning-
ton vs.. Funderburk,'' the issue involving
the ownership Of n valuable gold mine, was
postponed because of its not being ready
for trial, although it has been on docket for
several years. His Honor, Judge Whitner,
we think, exercised through the term, the
most commendable patience, which was ap-
parent through his anxiety to proceed with
the business of the Session. II not the
most learned he is decidedly the most amiable
Judge upon the Bench presides with dig
nifty and tirmnesS, but is clear Of that ex.
ceed'ng irIcIbility and unnecessarily hauCh-
ty dcmeanor, which is often NO conspicuous
a characteristic Of the presiding Judgr, and
Is so incOnceivably CALLING TO the feeling. of
those, who have, unwittingiy perhaps, cxci-
ted the SIP lcen Of one, whose exalted posi-.
ton allows him to vent it with ~impunity.
The trial OF the State cases, ended on

II beyond question whether the selling was
done in South, or North Carolina. The de-
fence was we'll and successfully Damaged,

The case Of the State vs.. Geo. Richardson,
Tor Larceny, Dsxt occupied The time OF the
Court. This was an ugly matter, and al
though the charge Mas well made out by
the State, there appeared a most extraordi-
nary defence. The Solicitor conducted the
prosecution with much ability land the de-.
fence was managed, by Mcssrs Clinton &
Secrest and Moore. Tue Jury returned a
verdict of guilty. The defendant had been
released upon bail, and vas not present to
receive sentence. The bail bond was
promptly discharged b. his s~uyeties but
the sentence, whalever it may be, still
stands against the defendant, should he be

Your Grand Jury have also looked care
fully Ia the condition of the Public Build.
ings-the Court House and Jail. We
find the fencing around both of these Bull
dings in 4 condition needing repairs. The
fence around the Jail il in miserable coudi-
ton; and we recommend that the fence on the
side facing the Methodist Church and end
fronting lngrams new house in rear Of the
Jail, be i6ade entirely new, and that a par.
tition fence be also run across The Jail lot
fronting the north door of the Jail, and that
the posts and other material necessary for
Iuilding the same, be of the best material.
We consider The Privy on the Jail lot, 4
public nuisance, standing as it does on the
pubic street. We recommend its removal
10 some more suitable spo, on the lot. We
also find the stable in want of repair. As
to the Jail itself, We have examined careful
~, both above stairs and below. It's condi-
ton ut present is clean; but we would re-
commend that the outside be whitc-washed
and that the walls Of The walks above in the
inside Of the building, be well painted, in
order that the wood be prevented from alb
sorbing disease causing matters; that tho
inside OF the Dungeons be white. WISHED
and The Dungeons washed clean that the
several rooms below, be white washed and
that rcplastcring be done wherever il is
broken, both inside md outside. We were
sorry to lind the Lightning Rods, both TO
the Jail and Court House, which were put
up only i short time since, now down and
in n condition not to be replaced. As n
Grand Jury, we cannot withhold the opin-
ion that such neglect, either on tho part of
the Commissioners of Public Buildings, or
tie inmates of such buildings, ought not to
he overlooked, but that it justly subjects
either, ar both, to the ~ssverest structures.
We report the use Of the Methodist
Church Yard, rs a h0rse yard, or common
litching ground, M indicating a state Of
things. more in taste with Barbarian than
Christianity.
We report the fence surrounding The
Court Yard as needing slight repairs, and
at least one coat Of paint. We further re.
port The Court House Well as needing spe-
cill attention, and hold that il is the duty
orthc Commissioners Of Public Buildings,t TO
have At al times n suitable rope and Buck
et attached to the same, for the public use.
We also report the ownership of Dogs by
Negroes, as IA great nuisance, that skouldhe
,hatcd. So long ~ Dogs are held by Ne.
groes, Sheep cannot he raised in the coun-
Try, and Patrol duty cannot b. efficiently
done.
Al OF which your Grand Jury would
mos, respectfully submit,
