moved by certiorari, from York to the Ling's
Bench, of the following nature :—The indict-
ment was preferred against the Proprietor of a
Fly Van, for doing business ou the Sabbe►th-day.
The vehicle in question, according to the Act of
Parliament, was not within its meaning any
more than mail-coaches.

Mr. Justice BAYIAT tald, mail-coaches did
not carry goods for common hire, they being ill
the service of Govarnmant.

Mr. Joass.—Thay carry goods, and are the
property of those who contract with Govern-
ment.

goods only, but the fly vans carry goods solely.

within the operation, and refused the appli-
cation.
