to tie silence of the midtliglit,`. wheil'
the
lamp was bttrning low,
On my brain themdawned a vision of the
cell at Fort Monroe,-
And around its massy portal, doubly lock'd
and triply barr'd,
Swept a train of pallid phantoms in the
darkness, keeping guard!
And I cried aloud in horror, "0, thou dim
and dreadful train,
By what strange unrest art summoned nut°
Earth and Life again l'"
Then a scilemn voice gave answer, "From
our graves 'neath sod and tide,
We have come to watch his slumbers,
through whose wickedness we died;
"From the far off fields we reddened with
our blood in fearful rain,
From the hiding waves of ocean we arise in
might again,
From the graves, a welcome refuge from the
loathsome prison pen,
Come the dread avenging spectres that were
starved and tortured men.
'We died starved—his fare is dainty—soft
alai snowy is his bed;
Countless nameless graves bear witness we
were law and roughly laid;
But the sleep to which Death us by no
treason-dream was marr'd,
And the angels came from Heaven, and
.around our rest kept guard.
'Tan you marvel that he sleeps not while
we stand outside the door?
That he starts in qniv'rimg anguish at our
footfalls on the floor ?
Though his prison walls be massive, though
his door be closely barr'd,
He beholds us and he hears us and he knows
we're keeping guard.
:"Traitor hearts may yet befriend him,
traitor hands may set him free,
He may fly from hate and scoffing, but from
us he cannot flee;
When at last to God in Heaven flies his soul,
all treason-scarr'd,
Round about the Throne Eternal he will find
us keeping guard!"

Franklin. • The note was a forgery.

old grudge, caused by a difficulty in Eng
land, some eight or ten years ago. Roach
had a hearing before Alderman Tittermary,
andwas committed for a farther investiga
tion.

COURT.
@MUM= iiiiittsfoige—Judge Peirce:This mornng,
the June Term of the Quarter Sessions commenced.
Mr. Thomas L. Moore was appointed foreman of the
Grand JurY. In addressing the Grand Jury; Judge
Peirce said:
Gen/amen of Ms Grand Jury: The law wisely per
mits no man to be the private accuser of another so as
to put him in immediate peril Of his life or liberty.
All that It permits him to do is to lay his complaint,
usually through the medium of the magistrates. before
the Grand Jury, who, if they deem it well founded,
return into Court -_ official accusation,
which is called an indictment. of which
the Commonwealth becomes the public prosecutor.
The citizen Is thus shielded from reckless and wanton
accusation, and can only be brought to trial after a
due investigation of the charges against him by the
tribunal established for that e. The Grand
Jury must consist of twelve at and may contain
any greater number not exceeding twenty-three, that
twelve may forma majority of the jurors, There must
be twelve at least because the concurrence of that num
ber is absolutely necessary in order to put a defendant
on his trial, and there must not be more than twenty
three because otherwise there mlgh. be opinion, eq divi
sion, or two Mill juries might differ in The
number of twelve as well as the constitution of the
Grand Jury is very ancient, being discoverable in the
institutions of Ethelred, though the formal Institution
of the Grand Jury probably took place some time in
the reign of Henry lIL
By Act of the Legislature of Pennsylvania twenty-.
four persons are to be drawn for Grand jurors, though
n of more than twenty-three can be sworn, for the rea
sons above stated. All persons serving on the Grand
Inquest must be good and lawful men; that is, they
must be citizens, nut aliens; nor persons attained of
treason or felony, nor convicted of any species of
aria en falai, such as conspiracy or perjnry,which may
render them infamous. This necessity for the Grand
Inquest to consist of men free from all affection ex
isted at Common Law, and was affirmed by the Statute
of 2 Henry IV. c. 9, which exacts that any indictment
taken by a jury, one of whom is unqualltied, shall be
altelether void and of no effect whatever.
It is absolutely necessary at common law that all
the members of a Grand Jury Should be inhabitants of
the county for which they are sworn to Inquire. This
proceeds from the principle of the Common Law that
if an offence be committed against the law it shall be
inquired of by the ;persons composing the vicinage or
neighborhooo; for the reason th at such persona are
presumed to be best acquainted 'with the facts of the
case and with the persons charged with or affected by
the offence committed. The (,rand Jury can gen
eral inquire of nothing but what arises within the
county for which they are sworn to Inquire, unless; ex
pressly enabled to do so by act of Legislature as might
be the easel! in any county such demorallzaxion should
exist as would prevent the punishment of crime and
tend to the destruction of organized society.
The oaths and affirmations which yon have taken.
require you to diligently inquire and true presentment
make of such articles, matters. and things as shall be
given you in charge: the Commonwealth's counsel,
your fellows, and your own to keep secret; to present
no one for envy, hatred or malice; neither to leave any
one unpresented for fear. favor, affection, hope of re.
ward, or gain; but to present all things truly as they
come to your knowledge according to the best of your
noderstauding. It is a solemn obligation. gentlemen,
and imposes on you diligence. fidelity', truthfolness ,
instice and Impartiality; qualities which the law as.
ISUMft you possess by
showeringel you for this high office;
tor. as I have before you. it selects none for the
Grand Inquest but true and lawful citizens. This oath
requires' youth be faithful in your attendance upon th e
meetings of your body; to permit neither the demands
of business nor the alluramenta of pleasure to prevent
the discharge of this duty.
Your presence in the Wand Jury room is needed to
Protect by your vote and counsel both the Jew and the
chiral, for she law presumes you to be the friend of
both—protecting the law from any and all violation of
it by presenting the offenders against it, without fear
or favor—and salelding the citizen from all unjust un
founded, and malignant accusations made against
him by a conscientious refusal to find any indictment
against him which Is not supported by the law and the
_
The duties of the Grand Jury are large and compre
hensive; they extend to every offence against the
criminal laws of the Commonwealth; such as offences
/against public justice, against the public peace, against
the public health, and to criminal offences against the
persons and property ofyonr fellow-citizens and others.
Besides your action in bills of indictment. you have
powers of an inquisitorial character, which you
may exercise if the public welfare should require. A
former eminent Jadge of thla Court, In speaking of
these powers said "they may be exercised if
the Court of its own motion should call your
attention to and direct the investigation of matters of
general public interest. which from their nature aril
operation in the entire community, justify such inter
vention. such as great riots that shake the social fa
bric, general public nuisances affecting the public
health and comfort, multiplied and flagrant
anted
the
to debauch and corrupt the public morals, and
the like. Another form of proceeding is by the
presentment of the Grand Jury.. A present
ment property speaking, is the notice
taken by a Grand Jury of any off•nce
from their own knowledge or observation without any
bill of indictment laid before them at the suit of the
Commonwealth. Like an indictment, however. it
must be the act of the whole jury, not less than
twelve concurring in it. It is in fac exceptsch a
criminal accusation as an indichnest, that it
e zanates frem their own
that c hknowle, and not front
the public accuser. and except wants technical
form. It is regarded as instruction for, an indictment.
411 investigations made .hy the Grandlary should
be under the sanction of an oath. For this purpose
witnesses were formerly sworn in Court and sent be
lore the Grand Jury; but now, by act of the Legisla
ture, the foreman of a Grand Jury or any member
thereof is empowered to administer the requisite oaths
cast
rmations to any witns Attorneyes whose
n may be marked by the' eneral on
the Ds of indictment. It is not necessary that you
*alio d examine all the witnesses whose names may
'be endorsed upon a bill of indictment. When you are satisfied from the testimony of
one or: more witnesses of the probable guilt
of tbe accused, you should find a true bin; if you are are
not satisfied, you should proceed to prannlne the wit
.
nesses until you can determine whether a true bill
should be found or the bill be ignored, in the discharge
of teem duties, you will be assisted by the District At.
torney. purpose; he law officer of the Commonwealth
for this
vise you in any matter of law in which yon may re
quest its advice, and which, from time to time, may
make such suggestions to you as the public business
may require
The (stand Jury has power also over the costs in
certain cases. In all prosecutions, cases of felon, ex
cepted, if the bill of indictment shall oe returned "Ig
noramus," the Grand Jury returning the same shall
dec lee and certify on such bill whether the county or
the prosecutor shall pay the costs of prosecution; and
th. le rand• Jury ao determining, In case they direct the
prosecutor to pay the costs, shall name him in thir
return. As the buainees of this term, as of all termsof
this Court, is large, you Willplease proceed, gentlemen, 1
of the Grand Jury, with as much diligence sets eon
alstent with due aellberation, to the consideration and
determination of the matters to be submitted to yon.
The petit jurors were discharged Mail to-morrow
morning, and the constables were ordered to make
their returns on Monday next.
QtrAttzEll SESSIONB.-117DGII REIRIVE.—The Corn
rnonwealtb, atthe relation ot the Northern Home for
Friendless Children, vs. Margaret Curran. This was
a habeas corpus to obtain the custody of John McDer
mott and Margaret McDermott minor children of
Mrs. hillen McDermott, who had released them to the
Northern Home in lsei. Defendant, Margaret Carnal
was their aunt. It appeared that the mother was some
years since left a widow with threentaldren, and with
no means of support; and that she sometimes tried to
drown her care by drinking to excess. This finally
lea her to release her children to the "Home" in Octo- -
ber,11364. Two of them were soon afterwards provided
with good places* In the country. and the mother was'
much pleased with them. The other one remained
and was instructed at the Northern Home. The
mother then went to live at service. The unmarried
aunt, who was also living at service, -was dissatisfied
at her sister's placing the children, at the "Home,"
and sued out a habeas corpus tor theta in March, MS.
Judge Ledlow who heard Mat case, decided that -the
mother had acted wisely in placing the children at the
Northern Home, and dismissed- the writ. Tne aunt
then applied to the Home, through her counsel, to bind
the boy, who was then at the Home; to a Mr. hi - mein-
Ma. This Was agreed to, and the lad was taken anon
trial, preparatory to having hint indentured. Ina few
days, however: the aunt got the boy away from mac_
ginnis without the knowledge or consent of the Home.
and never returned hint. Bite soon afterwards learned
the whereabouts of the other children. and succeeded
in abducting one of theta. The matter was at once
put 1n the hands of the police, but neither the defend.
ant nor the children could be found. The mother's
health gave way; and she was taken to the Pennsyl
yenta liespital about a fortnight since, with a "gallop.
clancosutio. Dr. Herbert, the attending physd
at te a t raatnetten, kindly sent word to the Home
where she was, and that her disease was aggravated
by sorrow for her children. Redoubled exertions were
at once directed by the Home to be made by the police.
Officer Reeder took the matter in hand and succeeded

that she would sooner die in prison. The 'Judge there

ment of the Court, however the defendant expressed
a wlMlliinensto take the children to their mother, and
Mr. liitcheson asked the Court to allow her to :do so,
rather than to commit her for contempt. Judge Peirce
acquiesced, and directed the children to be brought
