ANNAPOLIS, April 16-This Court was called this
morning, and large number of witnesses, parties
to suits, and spectators, thronged the city: The
delegation of witnesses from Baltimore, in the re-
| moved cases, numbered one hundred and sixty two,
| including Deputy Sheriff Griffin. The prisoners
| from Baltimore have, yet not arrived. The
Judge, on taking his seat and after the grand and
petit jurors called by the clerk, who gave the
usual instructions to the Grand Jury, with the
addition that since the adoption of the new code
| there was no law to punish colored persons for
carrying firearms, and, therefore, that body could
not indict for such offences; but the Court hoped
that the masters of slaves would remedy this by
prohibiting their slaves from carrying deadly wea-
pons He also referred to parties who had their
licenses taken away from them for selling liquor
the Sabbath, and afterwards taking out licenses
in another party's name, thereby defeating the
spirit of the law, and hejudgment fthe Court.
There has been so far twenty-five criminal cases
removed from Baltimore city, two of which are for
murder. In those cases the Court ordered sum-
monses to be issued for all the witnesses who have
not already been subpenaed, and gave notice that
the cases would not be continued on account OF
negligence of counsel, but to the contrary, if they
| were not present when the cases were called the
parties charged would be compelled to 60 to trial.

next Monday, and we are informed by Mr.. Revell,
the States Attorney, that all who fail to attend

enforced by the sheriff. The appearance docket
