Nunn, in his charge to the grand Jury at the opening or Franklin Superior Court for the trial of criminal cases, on Monday morn ing. Judge Nunn selected f or the foundation of his charge the reason for and plan of selecting the grand jury, iU relation to our system qf justice, and the duty of a grand Jur cr, and made a most excellent charge. In doing this he pointed out in an exceedingly clear manner how the changing of the conditions brought about the necessity of new and dif ferent laws for the protection of the ? puBllc. For fnstande, in IWS ** needed no laws governing automo bile because we had none. The law in reference to spitting on the side walks was a health measusre. He tcok occasion to tell the Jury and his hearers that it wasn't so much the duty of lawyers to convict or clear a defendant as it was to strive to see that equal and fair Justice is given all. He is an officer of the court and it is his duty to ubb his knowledge to a -fair administration cf justice. He directed the Jufry to investigate all crime and make in spection and inquiry into all public institutions within (the County. The Grand Jury is composed of the following gentlemen: J. A.

Their action was in accord with Judge Pal mer in the preliminary hearing when they fotfpd in substance that no crime had been committed because of the fact that Ayescue was in the dis charge of his duty as an officer and acted in self defense.
