The Committee remark that certain items in the account ought clearly in principle fall upon the ordinary charge of the Civil List. All ;haters which relate to the incidental expenses belonging to the State equipage, or accommodation of the Crown, although not of constant and ordinary re currence, ought unduuhtedl3 still to he defrayed out of that fund (the Civil List) instead of being thrown upon the civil contingencies.

There were seven other counts in the isudictusent, which charged the Defeisrlaist with haviug. aitnilarly coo ducted himself its seven several inal:,iices. Mr. ScARLSTT, in stating the ca.e, begged if any Gentleman, i,llll then on the Jury, who had served ou Soturday, that he would foe get whet had passed on th-it day. The charge was sow a if a most setious nature, and he did not know Of : esy topics the shape of a misdemeanor, More serious or important. . .Ir. TOPPING said, he understood that five of the Jury, who served on Saturday, were in the box —not that' he mentioned the circumstiersee as u Matter of objection. Mr. Justice ABBOTT--'r T!ie present charge against the Defendant is as tifteretat es possible limn that of Saturday." .Mr. ScsaLSTT said he was perfectly passive on the subject. Mr.,Jittillaitirsore observed, that they did not mean to object to any of the tieutlemen. Mr. Justice Ailoopt staled, that if any .objec tiun to them was to be received, it ought to liaise been made before the Jury were sworn ; but having been called and iworn the trial must go tin : the question was perfectly doitinct from the one tried on Saturday : this related to Defendunt's conduct as a Magistrate. Mr. MURCEILON said, that be had rot the slightest objection to any o f th e G ent l emen w h o composed the Jury. The trial was their proceeded on. Mr. Seisitucri, after various remarks on the se perior advantages which the people of this coutire, ai Compared with every other part of the woild, possessed in the administration of justice, from the highest officers down to those of the most Womble, character—and after having psrticularlj described the important duties. as well as the high trust MA confidence which were reposed in the Magistrates— proceeded to state, that thi charge agsitist the pre; sent Defendant, who had hell the office of a Ma gistrate. was that of hiving corruptly abused the functions of his situation. The Learned Gcsos demon observed, that amongst the machinery of a well-conducted government, was that of at Magistrate who received no pay from Government, but was intrusted to act upon Isis own feeling* of integrity and honour. It was the peculiar tortiv,stest of a Magistrate so situated to take care that the pub:. lic were nut led into snares by the uppointment rat improper persons to keep ht I ptise-acuits, ans.' there by render them, instead of receptacles for refreshment and accommodation, schools ~r indecency, Mitsui rality, and every vicious propensity. The defend ant had for many years beets a Magistrate for the county of Middlesei, and it was not in our solitary instance that he had violated his dilly as a Magistrate, but in several instant:es in the years IAIB and even after he had received the fullest ildorasalima that the houses licentted by him were kept by highly improper persons. Amongst these were the :—The Seven Stars. kept by Thunitia Wright; the King's Anna, the Queen's Head, the Turk soil Slave, the Adam and Eve, the Ham and Ma:gpir ; every one of which, it would appear, had herll kept by persons who allowed gambling, dud almost (-veep other sort of excess. In the year IBIS, the cottiiiiet of the persons who kept those houses 10-cisitie so notorious, that the coustaiile thought fit in make a list of them, and lay it before the Magistrates at the Quarter Sessions ; notwithatanding Which, how.: ever, they were all relicensed. '..2.7nine of them were the property of Mr. Merceron, and of others lie re.. ctived the rents. The Learned Counsel entered at considerable length into the circumstances of the case, and. concluded by oLsersing, that corrupt motives were attributable to the Difeticluist, for tor man would act corruptly Unless lie had a motive foe so doing. Mr. Joseph Underton, a clerk in the office of the Clerk of the Peace, proved that Mr. Metceron wed in the commission, and had been' so for twenty years. Mr. John Whitby Perry was head eon.tahle lot the parish of Bethnal-green for the year IBIS ; de.; posed, that he, accompanied by the Ileadhoreughof of the parish, went round very fre,;uently to inspect the conduct of the different public-houses. A inoug others, he inspected most particularly the Servo Stars. in Fleet -street, Bethnal-green. This house was conducted in a very bad manner, by keeping open till one or two in the morning.
