COURT KING'; Nov. 11.

THR KING oV. let.EOD3.

The Ariolt NV* GENERAL prayed !he judgment
of the Coast upon the two DefereLints,. who tam
brothers, jolvn M4l,eod and Bendel INVlgeod, set.
' vants at a Brew house, at Gate's Head, near New...:
cantle-upoo-Tytie. They were tried upon .an
,furtnation.'fiied by the Attorney General, charging
• theta-With obstrufting an Officer of the 14.:xcise in
the rue eXeCtOlOtt of his duty; and &raining and
fifiefy itnptisoning him, ts:c. The charge of ob-
euCting the Officer was abandoned, atid the, be.,
fenciants %vete . only found guilty -of falsely im ri-
sorting the Officer. It appears'd that, the'-Officer
ca4o,. to this Brew-house, iii the- Middle of the
night, anal the Deft. s came down itAtediately,
and complained they were disturbcd.! from theierest,
but they had their Brewers' cloaths on. They
grized the Officer, and. kept him for some time in a
kitchen against his will,. but afterwards let -him go
.without any violence, the one of them having dis,
'suadtd the other from doing.—lt was contended
that the.Excit-e Officer, in this case, was little bet-
ter than a trespasser himself, and that the I/ ten.'
dant% s'ould rave been justified in using as Much
force as was necessary, to put him out of the Brew.
hintse, but that they had detained him unjustifiably,
tit huh was itillmitted to the Cour( by Mr. Seijeant
Cockel and Mr. Holroyd to be -a light offence, and
Ahereforetieservingbuly of a light punishment,
Tire Ati,misreY GetitittAL did not assent to this,
on
,the contrary; he thought the- Case a serious one.
He observed, that if the Exci4; Officer ;had in this
case riot foul d the Brov-huuse in a suspicious con.
dition when he entered at this hour of the night,
'he might, perlepa, have been deemed a trespasser,
but ite..tiiat lu:ly justified by that condition, The
most' itijous part of this. Case was this—By some
• late regulations of the Revenue, Duties had been
imposed oft liter in classes ; so much upon Strong,
and so tauch upon Small Beer.; that 'upon the Strong
twelve, anti that upon the Strati being two
shillings per Barrel. In consequence ;of this, much
frcoad had been pradised upon the Revenue.' After
.'the Duties had been ascertained upon the
.Strung
Beer, at twelve, shillings per Barrel, and'on thf,
Small at -two shillings per Barrel, then, by means tsf
„ -a singe pipe,- the Small was nosed with the Strong,
and the whole, thus miitrd, was sold to the Con.
sumer . all for Stroq; Beer; nor was the Beer so
weak as might be imagined; for there was no way
Of preventing the Brewer from brewing the Sni.lW
Beer of two thirds the stiength Of the-Sfrong Beer,
and for which he only paid 'two shillings a Barrel
~ Dot and by this fraudulent practice the Revenue
had two shiftier instead of twelve shillings a Bar-
rel Duty, and in thiee Barrels the Revenue had six
shillings instead of six and-thirty=. ,This was the,
easiest thing in the world to be dune, and the most
d'Acult 'in the world -to he dmeeled.. Tu.deted ,
this praaire uas the objea .of the visit of this
P;tflicer to this Brew.house, at the time in question,
, amid that justified his visit ; w,e, justified un.
der the necessity tit supporting Ate Revenue.
, The Court observed, that the expressions of
malice uttered by the Defendants, two months. after
this took place, proved the necessity of demand-
ing Security for their, good behaOuurin luture ;
adie Defendants were committed and ordered to
be brought up.to.receive the Judgment of the*Court
to-morrow sennight.
