• V s t Or P"i . I 1 1 le r RE.ItiIIIKS ON THE VAGRANT .ICT. (Continued fromvor raper of February 2s). 1/r. Caneasi.i., in his work on Sptimalie nerAgy, lthx us that Tii.LoTsiiis used to read his sermons to an illiterate old woman who lived in his house, and that for any wont or expression that she did not understand, lie sul.stitiited a plainer. It would he well if lawyers and legislators would follow this wise Prelate's example. If Mr. vi I), for instance, had framed his VAG RANI ACT iu imitation of this pricedent, and had Strailled its vosetments through some such intellectual sieve, till he had purged it of all that was unintelligible, he would at , least have done himself some credit, though he might not 116 c done the State much service. There is not a single chluse in it, from the first to the last, that would not have been infinitely benefited by passing this matronly ordeal. On reading the second clause, fur example, when Mr. hetwyml came to that part which enacts that all i'0711710: , l tretalifilr'S shall be deemed idle and disorderly persona, and that "it shall be lawful for uny JuNtier the Peacc to anima such °W enders, being the elmrieled before him, I y'd,as tai m view"—the old dame would have lifted up her spectacles, and, with a blush of motherly moduty, have entreated 1 • to make his meaning bs tter understood. If this Act is to be amended, as we premium' it is intended to he, it weld(' certainly be advisable to stet r clear of such t quivocal dialect. _ _ . Let us now proceed with the third enactment. —To all bearwarls, all the Common stage-players, all the persons i rig to be gipsies,• and all pe:sons riooliot,tr to tell fortunes, are added, all persons " playing or petting at any unlawful game." Now, to enact that any of his Majesty s subjects shall be deemed and taken to he rogues and vai;a bonds, and suffer as this Act directs, for playing ur betting at any unlawful game, without either declaring what games are to be held unlawful, or off, ring any criterion by which any one can judge 'what is an adnailie/ game, mani fests not only en ignorance of the principles of penal law, but an utter disregard to the maxims of ordinary justice. There is no end of the oppression that may nut a ' practised under a law couched in terms so vague, and creating oli::nees so indefinite. What is here ine.tnt, for instance, by the generic term " game?" A game at eihst, or at tilt attlecock ; at bowls, or at blindman s-buff al cribbage, or at single-stick? All these are, for aught that appears to tht: contrary, within the statute • for we are left i bout any et i terton by which we can tell beforehand whe ther they are pectin' or unfauja ! Are rouge et nob, or hazard, or fain, unhorlid guises? This Act gists us no' clue to discover whether they arc or are not. Let us sup- pc,se for a moment that they are: the next question that te ill he put, and to which those who affirm them so to be' , are bound to furnish an answer, is—in what dues the an t refill ness id these games consist? We next ask, are ch e ss t,r 4,w/id games? I f they are, what is it that makes t! , e one lawful and the other unlawful? They are all I quail' , toomi.e.fehonce, and if played at merely for Muse.. 111.VIlt, and without any stakeas to the result, it seems im possible, on any rational or legal principle of selection, to say'tbat this game may be played at, and welcome, and [ lu,l puilisht d with imprisonment and the tread-mill—that if you a 11.1.154• yourself at one game you are void of offence, and if at anatbet,ia itseff equally harmless you are a sec t s. and a vae.A hos o ! It is momtrous to legislate in this way. Poe•s Mr. I'lll I'VfYsu conceive,—it really appears as if he did,—that nothing more is necessary to the making of penal statutes, than to indict punishment, and to levy enaltics ? Will he be• pleased to point out to his Majesty 's subjects the ! d o , which defines what is an unlawful game? If he cannot, will lie be pleased to explain to us how any game can be ,m/esold which no existing law prohibits? The great mischief to the public from having a criminal statute that creates otlit.ces thus indefinitely is this:—That it takes away from every one of us the safeguard of the Law and the Constitution, and brings us under the imperious domi nion of Magistrates, who may construe the act to be either lawful or unlawful, according as, either from personal or part y feelings, they wish to rid either themselves or the b4.,aer powers of any one whose removal or ruin may hap pen to be desirable. When in the instance before us, for ciample, it is not defined, and consequently is not known beforehand what game is unlawful, the accused is at the !grey of the Judge ; since arty game is unlawful which he as *axed to pronounce so be so. Thus, a despotic audio lit) is let loose upon wa, tVom which au man twist king dem is safe, and under which any act of oppression may 'be perpetrated which the time and occasion may happen to Gall for. Mr. Ch o i : 6r utfs Vwant Act runs counter to all our re- osivtd • aiik al justice. It breathes a spirit of vithat.Eag men have been accustomed to call tyranny—a derarirthrpirit, which they have no wish should be eon ; Aral back. In the instance before us, it is most important tq call the public attention to the fact, that the words, " or 1 slaying or kitierg at any nattee : lid game," create a substan- tire but unexplained (Armee, without requiring, for the pur pose of evapectiox, that the parties should have relayed for Money. They may have played for mere pastime. Bat if; the Magistrates, in the latitude of interpretation which the vague term " umlauted game" authonses, should choose to' oarumit them to the common gaol, and assign them a due interval of what they arc of late pleased to call the hmelthy eltereiw of the tread-mill, they have no resource but sub mission, and away they must go. ' We are often informed, for instance, by pultlie wire.- 11settaamt, that a Main of Cocks is to be fought. The intelligence is emoted by the Feeders' nutrias, that the Amateurs may rely that the feathered combatants have beat w:11 trained for the battle. Snwooeany of us, lovets di a cock-tight, should pay down our admission money, and take our scat in the chyle : while we arc absorbed in the doubtful contest, betting with ot t oman five to four, or two to one, the Justices of the Peace, who have become of late so watchful over the iniquities of our common nature, thud rat tunring to old Kelpie a Rapala 510, that a person wee convicted keeping a each-pit, and that the Court then deeithsl, that cock-fighting was an tadaulir/ game, contrary to the Statute 33 llcn. Vlll. c. 0.--on a sudden, to our utter consternation, in conic the police officers, and away we all I,a), cockers, feeders, betters, umpires, ante tee,: --all f.ie of? under guard to the 'louse of Correction, rand Abet) we pray to know wherein we have offended, we Lam that we come within the words, " playing to betting at ant / en/au:tai game," and that wit are melted down by I,hie single line of the Vagratit Act into the common mass df rogues and vagabonds, and are to be dealt with accord tgler. Really this is carrying the seal fur rt:Annation and be love of stimmary ,jetatiee vornewhat too fat: it leaves no matt in safety. With great deference to the legal knowlefte and se quisfements af Mr. Changes t ll ar ttufr Aron'•tt no game is an/used in Neg . and as cards or dice are played with merely for amusement, and as a contest skill, neither he, nor any one also, has any right to interfere. The Member for Sudfurd would have done well. before he employed himself to cull all the sta tutory inflictions that have been passed upon the idle and tliserilt rly. and to condense their scattered perfections into we!. evmolidated Act—he would have done well to have svul el at I,,ist the elements of public justice, and have 111qUAIIILS1 111111144 with the moral runt: upon which r.nislon,nt ilmohl be inflicted, and which can alone jus t.fy the infiictinA.it.

The following interesting account of the state of domes- . tic society in Malwa, and the adjoining provinces of Central India, taken from Sir John Makelm's highly amnia' Memoir, is worthy of attentlon. Slavery, to a certain extent, for centuries, has prevailed throughout the East, and we regret to know from this authentic work that it has taken deep root in Central India. Its evils, however, of late, have greatly ditninishol ; the extension of the power and influence of Great Britain to this portion of 'lndia has done much for its amelioration :-- 1 . ... - .. .• Slavery in Ilalwa, and adjoining provinces, is chiefly limited to female a; but there is, perli.eps, no part of India where there are so litany slaves of this sex. The dancing girls arc all purclu.sAl when young by the Nuking, or heads of the different sets or companies, who often lay out large sums (a) in these speculations. Female children, and grown up young women, arc bought by all ranks.— A g the ltajpoot chiefs these slaves are very numerous, as also in the houses of the principal Brahmins. The usage, however, descends to the lowest classes, and few merchants or cultivators are without mistresses or servants of this description; male slaves are rare, snit never seen but with men of some rank and property, with wham they are usually the confidential servants. " There are a variety of ways ill which slaves arc pro cured in central India. Numbers date their condition from a laiiiiiie or scarcity, when men sold their children to those who were aide to support tht to, with a natural view of 1 pres.rving the lives of their offspring, at the same time that they obtained means of protracting their owii. A great number of the slaves of this country are from Raj- pootana, (6) where the excesses of the Maltrattas drove the! inhabitants to exile, and to such distress, that they were compelled to part w ith their children. But besides these! sources of slavery, there are others of a more criminal ma- I tore. 'levee are many instances of Itajpoots and men of other tribes, particularly Sondies, selling the children whom they have by their slaves, who ars cor.sielered horn in a state of bondage. This only takes place when the fa- ther i:: in distress, or when he is tempted by a large price. The sale, however, of the offspring of these women by other . fathers than their masters, is more common. The slaves bred (to use 1 term suited to their condition) in this man lier are not iminerous ; but the farther demand is supplied I by the Briojarries (e) or grain carriers, who import le- I malts into and front I tuzerat, (I) and other c,:traiihs, I which they usually pretend to have bought, and by the : tribe of Ilwarriah, who have been already noticed as open ! and professed stealers of female children. ! " %%hen these slaves are bought, au inquiry is made as to their tribe ; and the general answer (particularly from ' the liwarriabs) is, that they are Brahmins or lisjpuots.— ' The children are taught to make pretensions to high birth,' and daily hest:tut:es teem of whole families losing caste in consequaltx of the se being too hastily credited. (c) When • persons of inferior tribes discover their daughters or hus bands their betrothal wives, in the houses of daughter, which often happens, they are compelled to undergo 1..0 and expensive penances to recover the purity from which they and their tinnily have fallen, in consequence of being defiled by Int rcourse with females so far below them. It is a remarkable fact, and one of the few creditable to the late community of the l'intiarries, that among the numeral prisoners of all ages and sexes whom they took, though they employed them as servants, gave them to their chiefs, and accepted ransoms for them from their relations, they never sold them into bondage, nor carried on, like the Brinjarries, a traffic in slaves. " Females in Malwa, except in times of scarcity, or general distress from any cause (a hen they are very cheap), are sold from 40 and So, to too and ISO rupees ; (f) the price is accordant to their appearance. They have been at times an article of considerable commerce, many being annually sent to the southward, particularly to the Poona territories, where they sold high. This trade, which has of late years decreased, was principally carrie d on by the Slabratta Brahmins, (g) some of whom amassed great sums by the shameless traffic. " Mal r slaves, it has been stated, are not common in cen tral India, and they are generally treated more like adopted children than menials. The case is very different with fe males, who, almost in every instance, are saki to prostitu tion; some, it is true, rise to be favourite mistresses of their master, and enjoy both power and luxury, while others are raised by the sitcom of their sons--but thew art =lons. The dancing wants, who are a ll slaves, arecondemned to a life of toil and vice, for the profit of 1 °theta ; and tome of the first Rsdpoot Chiefs or Zemin darn, (Ii) who have from 50 to 200 female slaves in their family, after employing them in the menial labour of their boo: during the day, send them at night to their own dwellings, where they are at liberty to form such connex ions as they please; but a large share of the profits of that promiscuous intercourse into which they fall, is annually exacted by their masters, who adds any children they hap pen to produce to his list of slaves. The female slaves in this condition, as well as those of the dancing sets, are not permitted to marry, and are often very . h l yshly used. The latter, from this cause, and the connexions they form, are constantly in the habit of numinLoway. if disco vered, they are always given up, provide the deeds of pur chase can be produced, which must be registered at the police-office (i) of a market-town at the period the slave is bought. " It is not die habit of the Native Governments of cen tral India to take any cognizance of the punishment which masters inflict upon slaves, except such as extends to their life, when they are responsible: the/ are, in sonic cases, cruelly treated, but this is not general; it is, indeed, against the interest of the master to do so, when there arc so many opportunities of escaping from his authority. " The state of cential India for the last thirty years has been flivourablt• to the species of slavery described ; and dist province is tilled with the mixed progeny of these un fortunate women. This traffic must, however, now de ' cream!, as the 4 warrialis and others who carried it on, can I no long, r steal or conceal children with that confidence of impunity which they had long done. A few years ago no man dared to leave his own district, to inquire after his. wife or daut„liter ; the whole country can be now traversed in saf ty : this change, and the discoveries of guilt that hive recently fern made, will hasten the end of this abominable usage." (n) They obtain advances (rem Sotwars, upon interest, like 1 other lenses. 1 I F) Marvin is :he province from which the ;greatest numbers am obtained. In the famine of 1813 and 1814, Ameer Khan formed in that country a battalion of children and youths of this class, I ,2110 strong. (.) Fur an account of this tribe see Bombay Transactions, vol.

Mr. 'MYATT move.' for a special injunction upon admiasions in the at.swer, on the part of the plaintiff' against the defendant, to onorain him from proceeding at bow upon two actions he has btought in the Court of Common I'leas. The defendant ' by his agent, er.tered into an Norm-merit to let to the plaintiff' a farm in Norfolk, consisting of about live or six hundred acres of land. The plaintiff' was let into possession of the farm he had paid his rent to the defendant, and received receipts from hint front time to time, all of which were admitted in the answer to the bill filed against him, praying a specific perfortnar.ce of the agre tenent--as he had now tarred roue!, n fused to execute the louse agreed to be executed. and brought two actions: one an action of rje:tment to turn the plaintiff out of possession, and the other to recover damages. Mr. liEAI.O denied that the defendant admitted any agreement between him and thy plaintiff—he denied ever sanctioning his en. tering into possessitot, or receiving the rents ; but he contended that an agreznient. wa. entered into between the plaintiff and a Mr. 11rown ("gent of the defendant). but without defendant's au thority. 'flue land in question is cburch land, and it was the de fendant's duty to take care that it should not be detwolished. The le:toned Counsel then read a great many statements made by .he deteralant, showing that the plaintiff had wilfully and maliciously committed a t many acts of demolition on the premises, that were he allowed to retnnin in possi_wsion of the farm till Michaelmas next, the doisentiao: would have to let it to some person for a term, fore- going the rem: Inc several years, that the tenant might put it into a proper tenantable state. Ile conceived that the plaintiff wit' ao ! very much nub:a-nosed in his circumstances, that he had been tin. obi.. to keep a pnliwr number of horses to cultivate so extensive a ' farm ; anti that, nom starvation, during the winter, about halt a doxen of his horses, add nearly a dozen of his bullocks, had died : therefore fletild submitted, this Court ought not to prevent ; the defendant from proceeding at law. Mr. Loyal' e replied. Ile considerei that the answer contained I all the attrolssions he first set out with stating it did. 't V'ith respect to the statement on the other aide, of the piaintilrstnisoonduct to. wards his cattle, in allowing about twenty head of them to die tin want of food. lie admitted no gentleman could stand up in this Court to %indicate such amiluet, if it were true • but every one must know, titat that was not a question to be co nsidered by the ! Court : the question was, whether there was such an agreement en. tered into in April, 18.12, as to bind the dtfendant ? which in his opinion there certainly was. Ilia lloxottn, in giving judgment, said, this wax an applies.. thin on the side of Equity. arising out of the defendant's answer; who showed that he had employed Mr. Birehan, a most reaper table surveyor in Norfolk, to make a survey of the farm ; and, ac. cording to tie. Itizchan's report. more disgraceful conduct never I could he attributed to the character of a tenant, than was anti- ' butts! to the conduct of the idniatitt—he h ad most effectually demo. dispel the farm. From the evidence, it clearly appeared that the plPin.ilf himself haul violated the agreement he had entered into with Mr. Brown, to krop the fann in a proper tenantable state. l'pon that groun d the I Octet unhesitatingly retused the motion. SIR ItICHAIII/ PHILLIPS v. J(HIN FAIRLII:11/1 AND OTHERS. Mr. Holt xi: ii;oyeil to have the injunction dissolved obtained by the plaintiff in this case. The bill was filed by the plaintiff, Eating, that Ise was the author of a br i nk entitled. " Chronology of Public Events and Remarkable kciarences within the last I. thy years, or fhmi 1773 to 1323, with a general Chronology from the earnest Records to the l'esr 1770," and praying that the defend. ants niigin he restrained from publishing or disposing of any more copies than they had already disposial of, of a book entitled "Chrn , nomgy of Events in the Rehm of George the Third and Fourth." The injunction was granted against Mr. Fairborn, of Ludgate-hill, ' Ins servants or agents. ' 31r. Hoar; E. contended the injunction could not be supported ' against Mr. Fairburn„b-eanse he had sworn he never had sold such a wink, even if it were a piracy of SIT Richard Phillips'a, nor had any of his servants or agebts dune so by his authority, or on his account ; but lie El 11l i l ted that a Mr. Holder, who is in his shop, had, unk nown to him, brought into the shop some copies of it, and sold them. There was also an affidavit filed by Mr. Holder, in which that Gentleman states himself to be the author and publisher of the book. Ills 110 N I• 31 was of opinion that Mr. Fairborn must be held resnonrible for whatever any person sells in his shop; therefore the injunction was maintainable on that ground against him ; but it was ordered to stand over till the next seal, that Mr. Heald might t n i i i a i. k re eLut . more distinctly to the Collet Sir Richard Phillips's authorship of the work, and also make 31r.

This was an actian, on the dlith of liliiabeth, &spinet the de fendant, late High :sheriff of this county, to recover treble dashers for the extortion of one of his officers. Mr. (itimey and Mr. Chitty conducted the plaintiff's ease, and Mr. Sergeant 'Awes the defendant's. The ewe was this :—Execution having been taken out against the plaintiff at the suit of a creditor, a writ was delivered to lieom Nnttnge, an officer of the defendant, to 'smite. The officer, who was also an auctioneer, with the consent of the plaintiff sold the effects, and out of th e proceeds deducted the Sheriff's poundage. two guineas for the levy, and one guinea fur making an inventory of the goods besides his charges as so auctioneer. The question was, whe ther the officer wan justified in deducting any thing more than the Sherifi"i poundage, according to the Statute 29 Elts. and 43 (ieo. & _ . . . . Justice KIST was of opinion. that the officer could not charge more than the poundage; but mid he would reserve the COO. sttlemtion of the mustier, fur the f'ourt above. His Lordship strongly reprobated the practice of the Sheriff's oaloon acting as The Jury, under his Lordship's direction, found their verdict for the phantiff_—Damages, 11. 4s. 6d. LSpec id Juries.] SAVER/ v. TOWER, rect. This was an action of assault and battety.—Tbe defendant plelded not guilty. Mr. Gurney and Mr. Jeasop conducted the plaintiff's cue, and Mr. Marryatt and Mr. Berens the defendant's. The plaintiff was smarm, carpenter, living at Romford, and the defendant, a ('sprain in the Royal Navy, residing at Kelvedon I llateh. On the 13th of November last, the Plaintiff; In company with Mr. Tailing. a corn-dealer of Romfitrd, who is qualified to kill game, ay.d a fanner's son, named Price, went to shoot in the preserves of the late Mr. Yaw of Kelvedon Batch, and Member of Parliament for Oxford. Mr. F'are's house was in the occupation of the defendant's mother, and the defendant himself was on a ♦isit to the latter. The plaintiff carried the game bag, and his MITI. panions had guns, and five or six sporting dogs. Whilst they were sporting 3lr. Pane's keeper came up, anti warned them that they were trespassing, and desired them to leave the g►ounds. The plaintiff and his companions were doubtful of the keeper's au.. thority, and went on shooting ; upon which the keeper went for his deputation, and brought the defendant along with him. According I In the re/Manny of Tailing and Price, the defendant immediately fell upon the plaintill' with a hedge wake, knocked him down, and struck hint acv-ral Mows whilst on the ground. The plaintiff kept hold of the game dog, and the defendant struck him repeatedly ! on the wrist to make hem let it go. Under these circumstances the action was brought. On the part of the defendant, the game-keeper was called, who I expressly contradicted the evidence of the plaintiff's witnesses. Ile swore that the plaintiff coudu:ted himself with great violence, and offered to fight the defendant. The only blow struck was a slight j rap on the plaintiff's knuckles with a small walking stick, to make ! him let go the game bag. The plaintiff was certainly nit knocked down. The plaintiff and his companions had refused to give their names; and then it was that the defendant attempted to take the game bag from the plaintiff. Mr. Jttstice 11t:s•r left it to the Jury to determine the credit of the plaintiff's witnesses, contrasted with the evidence of the game.. keei•cr. Undoubtedly the plaintiff was entitled to credit. If the; plaintiff's witnesses were believed, no damages:duality could give would be excessive. under all the circumstances of the case ; but if they believed that the story of the game-keeper was true, the smallest damages would satisfy the justice of the ease. The Jiry found their r.rdiez fur the plaintiff—Damages, Oar . net/dng. AHAW Y. GENT. This was an action of assault and battery, and for breaking the plaintiff's collar-hone. The ilefenihait pleaned that the plaintiff, being his 'errant, had miscondttetcd himself' and disobeyed his lawful commands, where. upon he pushed hint out of the house, using no more violence than was necessary. Gurney and Mr. Adolphus conducted the plaintiff's case, and 31nrry at and 31r. Broderick Ate dcfendatter. '1 he dcferilant was a gentleman of fortune living at Steeple Itunistead, in whose service the plaintiff; at the time of the trans- , action in questiim, was butler and footman. An altercation taking place in consequence of the plaintiff having disobeyed the defend. ant's toilets, the latter struck the hiraier violently. and in the re. ' salt his collar-bore was broken. The ylaintiti had incurred an espense nt Nil. in getting himself cured. Witnenrer ken a died f i r the defendant, whose evidence %hewed ; that the plaintiff had conducted himself with great ins:Jence, slot that mutual violence took place. The Jury, under the Learued Judge's directions, found their verdiet for the defendant. CORN E3CII .1 NG E. 3iAncit 10.
