It appeared that the prisoners Went to the pro-

,the prisoners being suspected,

with a offence in the shop Mr.Jupp,
in

into the shop under apret(owe of purchasing some
0.04, when one was odoed, and rite prisoners were
charged with having stOlen it. Their pockets were
turned out, and they were searched, but it could
not be found : the prosecutor,. however, was riot
swished, and the cap was at length found under
the petticoats of Mooney, , and she threw it at the
prosecutor. lie ,ordered them out of ids shop,

satisfied with turning, theta, out ; hut they were

them, secured and brought to the Office, The pri-

A man,* who stated, himself to be a brash-
Manufacturer, atteaded before Mr. KINriAIUDe
and exhibited a complaint against the Beadle of
St. Clement Danes' Parish, for seizing a number
of brushes, that he was offering for sale in' Clare-
market, and bad- taken' them to what be called
the Green-yard. The Magistrate sent for the
Beadle, and on his appearing, he justified hitt con-
duct by saying, the Act of Parliament gave him
the power of removing Ouisences, and seizing the
property in the way he had done, and,it would be
sold to pay the expenccs ; and refused to let the
man haVe his bruShes again, unless he paid five
Mr. Knitcititts spoke very feelingly upon the
tfubject, and said, probably this act of seizing the
brushes of the man's. own ittannfacture; which he
was offering for sale in a public market, might be
the ruin of the poor man, and he thought the en-
forcement of such acts ought to be tempered
with mercy. He could not bring tits mind to be-
lieve, that the Legislature, intended to give sal-
,
dent power to a beadle to seize property and in-
flict penalties without an adjudication from a Ma-
gistrate, but dceliaed making any order upon the
business, but recommended that the beadle should
slat attempt to inflict .a penalty upon, his own au-
and..that he should return the brushes to
rltts poor twin.

to give him the exotbitant fare which he demand..

to no to the city—his stables were ut the west
