It appeared that the Prosecutor'§ poCket was picked
by somebody, but neither 'he nor the constable on
duty, who had been called to take a person into
custody, could identify the culprit.
The Magistrates reprobated; in the strongest terms,
the stupidity and ‘.rant of capacity in the Con Stable,
and observed, that if the Public were ,o have their
poAets picked while doing business under the mi. f
blithe Past Office, th.rre was an end of the use. of
Peace Officers„, and this man was paid for doing no-
thing, or worse than nothing. , But the ilia is, thii
man afted as Well as any Other under similar Circum--
stances, for he has not one qualification to be a Police-
Officer, he was transferred from a Messenger in the
Office to be a Constable to attend in the yard, with•
out knowing one pickpocket or improper charaeler,
The Magistrates lamented they were obliged
turn these tellows loose upon the Public maul.
