EXCISE COURT.-THURSDAY.
(Before Sir Joror Moßmocx, Bart. ; J. F. STEPHENSON,
Esq. ; and T. Harrison, Esq.)
Frederick Rayner, a waterman, was charged with retailing
spirits on the River Thames, on the 22d of April last, without
a license, by which he had incurred a penalty of 100/.
Mr. PELHAM appeared on behalf of the defendant.
Mr. MAYOW, in opening the case for the Crown, said a
prosecution had been deemed necessary to check a practice
that had lately existed, viz., that of selling spirits from boats
on the River Thames; and it was evident that, if it was
allowed to continue, the interests of licensed victuallers
would be seriously compromised thereby. The Crown was
fully empowered to take a severe course for the recovery of
penalties, but rather preferred adopting the present mild
course to stop a practice which circumstances imperatively
demanded.
Mr. W. T. Gregory, a supervisor of excise, stated, that on
the 22d of April he went, accompanied by an officer of the
Thames police, in a boat on the Thames, and shortly after-
wards pulled up alongside the boat of the defendant, lying
nearly opposite Masterman's brewery, and within ten yards
of the shore. He purchased spirits of the defendant, which
he poured from a stone bottle lying on the bottom of the boat.
He had no slops (clothing) or any article of that description
in his boat.
Mr. J. C. Evans, an inspector of the Thames-police, corro-
borated the above, and added that he asked the defendant
why he undertook to sell spirits, when he produced what he
called his license, granted to him :by the Watermen's Com-
pany. It was produced and read, as follows
" Bum Boxr,—l hereby certify that Frederick Rayner, of
the parish of Stepney, is this day registered in a book of the
Company of Masters, Wardens, and Commonalty of Water-
men and Lightermen of the river Thames, kept for that pur-
pose, for the purpose of selling, disposing of, or exposing for
sale, amongst the seamen or other persons employed in or
about any of the ships or vessels upon the said river, any
liquors, slops, or other articles whatsoever, between London
Bridge and Limehouse Hole, but the said boat is not to be
used on the said river for any other purpose than the afore-
said. " F. BANYON, Clerk.

" Watermen's Hall, 1841."
The defendant also produced a certificate from the Trinity
House, dated 1835, by which he contended he was authorised
to pursue his calling.
Mr. MAYOW here remarked that the Police Act of 1835
repealed these privileges of the brethren of the Trinity-house,
since which time they had ceased to issue these certificates.
Mr. Pelham, for the defendant, contended that he had sold,
under the authority of the license of the Watermen's Com-
pany, and bad acted under the impression that they were
fully entitled to do so. It was true by the Act of the 6th
George IV., the Act of the 2d George 11. was repealed, but
other Acts passed to amend that of George 11. were not re-
pealed. The Watermen's Company had been in the habit of
issuing these licenses, and at the present time there were
upwards of eighty of them in circulation. If the defendant
had done wrong, it was the Waterman's Company alone that
were to blame, for he had paid for the license he held, and
which he had every reason to believe they had the power to
grant. He trusted, therefore, under the circumstances, that
his client would be dealt with mercifully by the Court.
Mr. Mayow said the Act 6th George IV., which over-rode
all former Acts, especially provided, in the 28th section,
"That no person shall hawk or sell spirits in streets, high-
ways, or in any boat or other vessel in the river."
Mr. Commissioner STEPIMNSON said, as this was the first
case that had come before the Court, they were not inclined
to inflict a heavy penalty; but they wished it to be known
on the river, and to the Watermen's Company, that should
any other cases of this kind be brought before the Court, they
would be dealt with with severity.
The defendant was then fined in the mitigated penalty of 2L
Several dealers and retailers of glass, viz. :—Mary Yates,
Robert Sawyer, James Fullaloe, and W. P. Freestone, were
fined 51. each, and a quantity of illicit glass forfeited, for
having that article in their possession

[ADVERTISEMENT.)—A FALL FROM A SCAFFOLD.
—CURE EXTRAORDINARY BY HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT
AND PILLS.—John Watson, a mason, residing in Half-
moon-street, Bishopsgate•street Without, fell from a
scaffold two years ago and broke his arm. He remained
fifteen months in St. Thomas's Hospital, where they
wished to amputate the limb, as several abscesses had
formed on it. The young man refused, and left the hos-
pital with his arm apparently in au incurable and useless
state. In two months, however, all the abscesses were
healed. and the limb rendered perfectly sound by the use
alone of Holloway's Ointment and Pills. Sold at Pro-
fessor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand (where
advice may be had gratis), and by almost all respect-
able Vendors of Medicine throughout the civilised
world.
