SUPBEUE COURT’

On Tuesday the Grand Jury name into Court and after the several presentments were deli- vered the foreman Peter Maegowan, Esq.,ad- dressed the Court in the following terms:—

T/ie flonaurables the Justices presiding Her Majesty‘: Supreme (‘curl of Judu-,,(ur¢_

May it please your Lordships ;

During the course of the Term, the Jurors have found True Bills on all the Indictments submitted to their consideration.

In compliance with your Lordship's charge, the Jurors have made searehin enquiry for- e‘VI_Il_euce against persons engaged in retailing bptrituoug Liquors without Licence. and in the ll|V0Stigation have necessarily examined a great many witnesses.

Presentments have been made and are now reported, to be dealt with in such manner as “W Court may judge expedient. '

The Jurors regret to observe, that they dis- cover, from evidence tul.-eii before the panel, that the trallio in nrilent spirits is greatly on the iiiL'rcii.+_-, ll'ltl tliit cvezi lmvs ol'\-cry rem)”. uge,in i~oiiip;ini.-.~i togetlicr, ¢ll'<l freely furnished with liquor by p~-r.-n.-is re-[;iilil!;{, thus openly in Vltlllltl-)ll ol'Ili-3 ..ii\'.

The crime of shop-lifting appears to he in- creasing, owing mrtl to the careless and tempting mariner iii wliieii goods are exposed- Large lots of \'ulu:ib‘e iiicroliaiidize, are daily exhibited outside the shop doors, and in some instances, piles of Goods are placed on the pub- lic strects—ati')rdinga great temptation to nec- dy persons of weal: and doubtful principles, besides very improperly and inconreniently oh- structing foot passengers-—and the Grand Jury recommend that the attention of the proper authorities should be called to this public nuisance, with the view of having it nbsted—If this custom were sto ped,it is presumed that the crime would be t us much diminished.

The Jurors now present to the Court the an- nunl list ol' Fence Viewers and Constables lor Queen's County. for the ensuing year. The list has been considerably enlarged to nisetthe ne- cessity of increasing settlements in several sec- tions of the County.

The names of the Police Oﬁeers for Charlotte- town have on likewise inserted, it being found expedient that their jurisdiction, in many instances should be extended beyond the pre- oinets of the City.

8th January 1856.

The Chief Justice brieﬂy stated, that the Grand Jury deserved well of the County for their diligence and assiduity in the prosecution of their important duties and in particular to that part of them which related to the suppression of drunkenness.and with much leasure and satisfaction discharged them roin further attendance.

TEMPIIANCE IN Esct.iiNn.—Tiie editor of the National Era, writing from London, says :— “ l have never before been so profoundly impres- sed with the policy of the Maine Liquor Lew,- nevu before felt so deeply grateful to the persev- cririj advocates of temperance in my own coun- country. intoxicating liquor, in some form or oiher, is almost universally used in London. You cannot spend s social evening with a friend. without the decanter being poduced ; and if you csllat s clergymsn’s house, you are asked to refresh yourself with s glass of wine.—lt is use- less to attempt any reform among the peers classes, while this bad habit prevails among res- pectnble and wealthy people. This is a lesson long ago learned in America ; but Osy have yet to learn it in England. They do not recognise the iruth. that drink in high places encourages it in low places.

June: Cnurroiﬂs Dsriiurioii or Tnirc‘ iiANcr.—Solon¢ ago ss 1831. the Right Hon- ()hiefJustice Crsmpton, then Solicitor General for Ireland, in presiding over a temperance meet- in-: in Loiidon, said. ‘ I beg permission to give i idea of a tem raie man, because I know I at legal suhileiies have been set up against the l8lI‘lP€I'lIllt7G institutions.
