Auckland isagain to be congratulated on a comparatively light criminal calendar as disclosed in Ihe charge delivered by his Honor Mr Jistice Gillies to the Gr-md Jury to-day. Contrasted on the bash of population vith the catalogue of crime which has boun telegraphed from the oiher principal centres of population in the colony the sixteen cases on the Auckland calendar, none of which are of a serious character, and which iiclude no new offenders, prove that the people of this part of New Zealand are comparatively free from the more heinous class of crimes, and that the criminal cks^es are not seriously on the increase.
