DARING BURGLARY AND ROBBERY.—lnforma-
tion. ,was yesterday received at Batton-Garden
Police-office, of the residenCe,of JAMES PATTEN,
Esq. in Doughty-street, Brunswick-square, being
burglariously entered on the preceding morning at
an early hour, and robbed of numerous articles of
plate, house-linen, and wearing apparel. On,
the premises being examined by READ, senior
(the chief officer),.it was discovered that the
burglars had effected their entrance by scal-
ing from Doughty-mews four walls of con-
siderable height. in succession, until they reach-
ed Mr. PATTEN'S garden. They then tore up
the stones (of 300 weight), in which were fixed
the iron rails, .securing the back area window ;
and having once entered, they broke opeu every
door and .press in the lower part of the house.
So undaunted ly did they proceed, that aftercollect-
ing their various booty, they sat down.and drank
some decanters of. Madeira wine, and .ate of va-
rious, sweetmeats. Previously to ,their departure,
they put some ofM r.PATTEN,'s boots,and left their
old shoes behind them. Four suspicious-looking
characters were seen by the coachman on,the pre-
ceding evening lurking, about the premises ; and
as one of them has been recognized, from the de-
scription given of him by READ, Sen. there is little
,
doubt.of the gang being soon detected...it is presum-
ed that they contemplated the robbery on discover-
ing that the footman, who used tosleep in the
lower apartments, hes within theie few nights
changed to another part of the house.

It has of late been much the fashion, both in
the public press and periodical pamphlets, to
abuse thatpart of the community who have taken
part against Mr. STEWART WoirrLEY's Bill for a
repeal, of what they are pleased to term a san-
gtiinary code of laws, ill-suited to the present
enlightened period. As I consider those who
usually reside in the country, and whose chief
amusement during a certain period of
.the year
consists in the sports of the field to be the persons
so attacked, I hope I shall not be deemed pre-
sumptuous in qfferit, a few remarks upon this
subject, nor .sliould I have done so did I think
that the Bill proposed by the Honourable Mover
would effect the diminution of crime, which it must
be the desire of every well-wisher to his country
to see accomplished, and though I give him due
credit for his intentions,: I will endeavour to
shew that the proposed alterations will not
have the • desired effect ; from what has tran-
spired in the public .press, (and from which
'my information is solely derived), I consider
the proposed Bill to be for the purpose of sup-
pressing the illegal traffic in game, by legaliz-
ing the sale under certain restrictions, by which
the lawful dealer will be enabled to undersell the
poacher, to the. great diminution of crime. A
great part of the evidence taken before a Com-
mittee of the House of Commons last year was,
to the best of, my recollection, given in support
of the measure by the London Poulterers, a party
greatly interested therein, and a small portion
was but comparatively taken, as to the usual ha-
bits and moral character of the poacher, who
would be found, with few exceptions, to pay as
little respect to the farm-yard or orchard, as he
would to the Gentleman's preserve, were the one
not attended with more certainty of detection
than the other. I. think it is stated in one part
Of the evidence before the House that the origi-
nal poacher does not get above .91 or is. per
head for game so illicitly taken ; if that is to he
believed, let us next see for what that game can
be produced upon the average throughout the
country. . •

Take an extent of .manor, say 3,ooo.acres,
upon :which 1,500 head of game (exclusive
of rabbits, which few proprietors preserve)
is annually killed, and whicb, after' Makiog all_
allowance for good and bad soils, poor landS')lx.c;tC.
Ste. at present strictlN preserved throughout the
country,.would be found a fair average ; and, on
the other hand, the cost in preservation, feeding,
watching, &c. rent of manor, at 100 per annum„
it would be found, upon a fair.calculation, to
amount to 4501., or six times the amount of the
sum, which, with all the present,disabilities, pains,
and penalties, the poacher has hitherto afforded
it at. •
To suppose that game would require less pre-
servation against the common poacher than at
present were absurd, as. no • greater degree of
moral turpitude will attach to it than at present
exists ; .whereas the difficulty of identifying
game will facilitate the illegal ;sale in a tenfold
degree ; add. to;which, the great objection which
exists in the breast of every farmer to preserva-
tion,. in consequence of the enormous expence
entailed ; so that, though less crime might be
brought to light, far more would ensue; the
poacher would still have a preference in the
market, for if other arguments were wanting,
his mode of taking it with.nets and snares (ren-
dering the game more saleable in the market)
.than that killed by sportsmen in the ordinary
way, might be adduced.
The litigation produced by the divisions and
adjustment of such a property as Game, ought
next to be considered as relates to the Lord of
the Manor and smaller occupiers. •
Every Farmer will henceforth consider that as
a positive loss, which heretofore (from the pro-
hibition of sale) would not: be considered as a

gain. The old steady English farmer, whose
forefathers have for a century, perhaps too, been
accustomed to look after his crops and cattle,
and to attend solely to agricultural pursuits,
that farmer who has hitherto lived respected and
content under the existing laws, convinced that
the almost constant residence of his much abused
squire and
.his friends was of far more benefit to
the parish than is likely to accrue from this
change of system, in the f,equent desertion of the
manorial mansions, and the consequent non-em-
ployment of the poor, whereby. the whole onus
of labour and support must-fall upon himself and
his neighbours, whilst the probable gain derived
to him may be some 203. or 30s. per annum, in
lieu of as many pounds formerly circulated by the
Squire and ,his friends this man is now to alter
his course of life, commence. sportsman,. and
, enter into litigation with all. around him. To
large landed proprietors, whose estates lie con-
tiguous, it will be but a matter of perfect indif-
ference, but of these the number is comparatively
small. Take for instance a manor of 3000 acres,
whereof 2000 of soil is absolutely vested in the
Lord—but intersected in many—points with the
remaining 1000—in small portion of 5, 10, and
20 acres, belonging to 20 individuals. A Lord
of a manor. so situated must either abandon • all
preservation, or compromise upon such terms with
the farmer, as he may think proper to demand.--

Thus, on the one -hand, the game would eitheitte
annihilated; or, on' the other, (could pOaching.lie.
.suppressed) would be. purchased at such an enOt4-.
mous price•by the preserver as.to ',render-it in
the market a luxury attainable but by few.---:
From the almost insurmountable difficulty 'of
adjustment, and the future abolition .of all mano-
rial rights, the preservation of gathe must- ne-
cessarily cease upon all soils .not peculiatgy
adapted for breeding, and where' the whole does'
not lie contiguous. 'lt will be answered that. at •
this moment any holder of land may warn off a
tresspasser—Granted.; but so long as "guile
is not a saleable commodity, so long. the right is
seldom exercised. Make game but once property-,
without providing adequate nieaus for the protec-
tion of manorial rights, and litigation must ensue
to unlimited lengths on the one hand, and the
total annihilation of game on the other. Game
will in a short time be in the hands only of a few
large proprietors—a complete monopoly will end.
sue, and if by extreme vigilance and expence it
can be preserved from the nets of the poacher, it
will be at five times the price as at present.
That something *should be adopted to cure the
evil of poaching, I admit—that the law regarding
qualification should be in some degree amended,
I am also willing to allow—but that the pro-
posed Bill, by allowing the sale of game, will
prevent the former, or satisfy the joint holders
of land, I deny. More poaching will take place
than heretofore ; game will be annihilated, and
the lord, the yeoman, and the farmer will be at
perpetual variance. I give due credit to the
framers and supporters of such a Bill, for their be,
nevolent and humane intentions; but I think it
were better to pause a while, than risk the in-
terests of so large a proportion of the landed in-
terest, who are deeply concerned.

I remain, Sir,
With great respect,
