 The grand Jury have had under their consid- erstion nine cases Of violation Of [. s. Revenue Laws, seven cases of violation of Stamp Laws and one case of violation of Postal Laws. After the most careful consideration and examination of evidence within their reach. the grand jury have found, and presented to this Court, ten true bills of indictment, and have ignored eight of the cases before them.
 The grand jury respectfully return their thanks to the Hon. Court for its courtesy, and by whose instructions and kindness they were greatly as- sisted in their labors The attention of lhe U S.
