there was no violation of any penal statute,
the court would leave the matter with the
grand jury. Nevertheless, if any breach of
the law had been committed, to the
knowledge of the grand jury, it was their
duty to take cOgnizance of it. That it had
been stated in the REPUBLICAN Of Sunday
last that the Hon. Thomas Green Davidson
had been set upon by ruffians. If this
proved to be true, it was the duty of the
grand jury to ferret out the offenders, and
bring them by indictment before the bar of
this court That the time has come when it
is to be hoped that every good citizen of
every party and condition would raise his
voice and use his influence to suppress fur
Their personal violence in every aspect.
In the case of Joel E. Cannon, charged
with the murder of Martin Busch on the
twenty sixth of December the court had
been asked by counsel for defendant to
charge the grand jury as to the character
and sufficiency Of evidence required. They
were told that the jury are the sole judges
of the suficiency Of the evidence; that the
general rule is that all witnesses who saw
the act committed should be called before
them, or at least, sufficient number to sat-
isfy them that they had reached the true
state Of the case and if, after hearing the
witnesses, they were reasonably satisfied
that the homicide had been committed, and
that the accused was the party who commit
ted it, it was their duty to indict him but
that in all cases they should be reasonably
satisfied of the guilt Of an accused before
they place him ON trial before petit jury Of
the court.
The grand jury then retired, and had
made no report when the court adjourned.

corder Houghton, will go down to the
