SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.
FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.
GLOBE.—We understand that the report of the
Committee of the llouse of Commons on the laws re-
specting Gaming, which was presented on Monday,
recommends that all gambling booths on race courses
should be entirely and universally put down. As Mr.
Manners Sutton, the Under Secretary for the Home
Department, was a member of that Committee, we have no
doubt that the suppression of the gambling booths and
tables at Epsom, like the recent simultaneous entrance
of the 17 gaming-houses in the neighbourhood of St.
James-street, arose out of the inquiries and recommenda-
tions of the Committee. The ground assumed for such ,
proceedings (and it must be admitted a valid ground) is
that all gambling tables, whether in houses or booths,
whether in town or country, are founded in fraud,
are maintained by.fraud, and frequently drive those
who frequent them to retrieve their losses by the
c )mmission of fraud elsewhere. It cannot be doubted
for a moment that Government have a right to protect
the unwary from systematic plunder ; and so far as
regarded the surprise of the " hells," we entirely ap-
prove of the late police measures ; the more so as
our witty contemporary, Punch, was, for once, wrong
in his supposition that the invaded sanctuaries were
places of mere plebeian resort. There w,re severs'
narrow escapes of -the highest aristocratic,order of their
habitues. Whether others of. that order were brought
up under aliases of John Smith, or Peter Jones, we
cannot pretend to ray. So far as our yesterday's re-
marks were serious on the Epsom matter, we have
only intended to censure the confiscation even
of gambling investments, hitherto permitted, without
warning. These places had been openly tolerated
by the local magistrates for thirty or forty years.
41 by should not timely notice have been given to the
parties interested that they would be so no longer ?
Why should the owners even of gambling booths be left
to incur expenses ruinous to them, for want of warning
that authority—(hitherto their accomplice, by conni-
vance at leasi.)—was now minded to exterminate them ?
