In accordance with the request contained in the follow ing letter, the President Judge has polite ly furnished .the charge for publication: ■ --.., • April 10, 1839. Hon. Samheu Hepburn, President Judge, &c. The Grand-Jury of Cumberland, County by their Foreman.beg leave to express tp your Honor the great pleasure and satisfac tion with which they, beard the very able and appropriate charge delivered to them by your Honor. at the present term of the Court, and most respectfully request a copy of- said charge for publication; ; With great respect, yours, &c. ' JAS. W. ALLEN. (finllemen of the Brand Jury! It is certainly gratifying to the Court that from an examination of the calender furnish ed from the jail* We are enabled to commu nicate to you the pleasing fact of amamfest the offences, enumerated on our list. ;There are out, two charges of a higher grade than larcenymrond not the usu al number! at thiB:ferm, of the latter. But from the prevalence of certain tumors that have-reached the ear of every member of the Court on, more occasions than one,, in relar tion to offences of a-lower degree, thdugh e rjually derogatory to the character of a mor al community with, some of those .returned on the calender before us, it is important that while your inquiries are exerted in dis cerning and.arresting the progress of .crimes of a more aggravated and public kind and consequcntly more. susceptible of caBy_.de-. faction, [that your examinations be more mi nute, and investigations more thorough, in order* ff possible, to prevent offehces of a secret and hidden nature from usurping the place of those eradicated*. “The trust repo sed in Grand Juries is of great and general concern!” and, in the language of an Crate nent author, “to them m Committed .the cus tody of the portals of the law, that into the hallowed dome no injustice may be permit? ted to enter. They make, in the first in? stance,the importantdiscrimination between ;the innocent and the guilty. To the form* er. they give a passport of security! the lat ter tjiey consign to a final triijlbyjury.”—- They should be emphatically the leaders >n [the great Work of moral reformation, and ' more devolves on them in the Character df.a high and important duty, as conservators of the morals and rights of the .community .within the sphere of their operations, than .any other .constitutional part of our judicial tribunals! and precisely in accordance with the faithfulness, or negligepce, withwhich this sacred jlttty entrustedTto youcchargais performed, will the result Of your.iradyour successors action be known and felt through put the community for:good or for evil.-r- Grond juries are composed of men of respec tability and’ intelligence, selected from, all parts: of the county every three months, deeply, interested in the welfare and secu rity of the persons and! property of theciti zens Of ourcounty generally, who.if diligent in these inquires and conscientious and fear? jess in the discharge of their duties,: cannot fail to exert a inostsalutary influence with* in the limits'of their jurisdiction. . : v . contemplation; of ilaw iw offenccff (ahi hut few in point of fatty worthy die atten tion, of a grand- jury thuaorganizedandac tive In.ita operations, can escape their no* tice. or fail to- receive their impropriate ac* don. - :The eath of a. grand juror is solemn and comprehensiye, and. is. as specific ip .the definition of your duties as’ the English lan guage canmakeit in the namespace. - It is die comtpissionnndcr wKiclreacli of yon act, end it assigns nb liinit to the courte of yoUr inquiries' “except those marked bydiligience itself. vAU -urn within thenompassof-your viewandrnsftarch.audthrougbyoulieblnto die public gaw or iwnishmaot, ;»y oiitbyoa »wij|Kdemnly j*quked f'diligendyf io*nq«iw,,and;itr«» jusaentmeat wakens know to be presentabie’here.” . Von see by this, that the limits of your IHfestigattons are not Cohfioed to 'the Wile offered to yon by the Attorney General, not to the crimes given yob. ib charge, not to, the evidence, brought before you by the prosecutions this is a, field tpo harrow for your. labors, and prescribes u limit to your duties far within the boundaries designated by your oaths*-- Ypu are not selected for the prosecutor, nor for the Qpurt, but for the Commonwealth and for the people, and surely they are greatly interested in: having; all crime* sup pressed, and every offender against the lawa promptly and • properly punished, whether the offence ia laid before you in a legal tech* nicail form, or whether it exists of your know ledge and requires a presentment to reach the criminal.

Dd you knpw of any gambling-houses, or taverns at which gaming of any kind is encouraged, where money or any other arti cle of value is bet, orhazarded-by the par-. ties? Doyou'know of any disorderly houses in your towns, kept as such to the annoy ance of their particular neighborhoods? Do you know* of ircquent andjopen violations of i the sabbath by any persbn'or persons, or do you know of any-other prcsentable,offencef 1 If so, your duty to the Commonwealth, and I the aolemh obligation of your oaths require, that you present the offenders, whether friends or foes. These' presentment} are accusations found by the grand jury of their own accord and from their own knowledge and observation, without any bill being laid before you by the^Attorney General, which are afterwards reduced into proper form by him, and then sent to you in the same man ner as hills Originally preferred by that offi cer, end when found by you in due form are indictments on which the defendant is brought to trial before a traverse jury. ' ■ Against the crime of gambling, in our town land county, we feel compelled under an imr perative aenae of duty, to request that yon direct your vigilant and scrutinizing efforts: die evil is increasing with rapid growth, and, the inquiry is propounded pn all: sides, is there no remedy? There is a remedy, if iroUEht within oUr reach; the law has made mnpre 1 tion against the offenders: the fault thcn'Ues at ourdoors in the ndminiatratlon of the law, and it' becomes ns, and more particularly you, invested with the power of ferreting out these sinks of iniquity and suppressing this growing evil, tb exert a more than-or-- dinary diligence in your inquiries, for-the purpose of discovering who and where they arc. ■ - _ .- ’■■ ;..
