NEW POLICE.

raft-
The new system of police will come into operation, we
understand, about the 40th of next month. It is said that Dearly
two thousand individuals have made application to be employed
under the new Act, a very great number of whom have been re-
jected, as strict inquiry is instituted into the character of every
person who offers himself; and if it should be found in the least de-
gree objectionable, the party is instantly rejected. It may be neceo.
sari to mention, as a caution to all housekeepers and others, to be
very particular with respect to whom they recommend, as they
will be, in a great measure, responsible for the conduct of the
party, u all applications with the names annexed are safely de-
posited at the office of the Secretary of &ate for the Home Depart-
ment. If this precaution were not used, many improper persons
would obtain employment, and the object of the new plan of pence
would be, in a great measure, defeated, as several notorious cha-
racters have endeavoured to be employed, who, if successful, would
eo-operate with their old associates in forwarding and aiding them
in their malpractices.
The new pollee will certainly partake in some degree of a mili-
tary character, as it will include persons of different grades, with
warier corresponding with their responsibility, consequently those
persons in the lowest situations will be preferred in proportion to
their zeal, honesty, and activity; and those, on the coarser, who
are listected taking bribes, and found drunk on their post, be other-
wise miscooducting themselves, will be instantly dismissed.
Returns will be hourly and daily made to the proper. Aoshori-
des of all occurrences relating to the nightly watch and nocturnal
patrol, and means will be devised to prevent, as much as possible,
• any intimacy between them and prostitutes, and the thieves by
whom the latter are generally accompanied, to prey on the public.
We understand that the persons engaged day and night, win be
relieved after being on duty a reasonable number of boors, by
others. so that the supply of fresh men will prevent parties from
being fatigued, and render the police more effective.
After a trial of a few months, any deficiency that may be per-
ceivable will be remedied by amending the new Act when Paella.

over those abominable brothels, where male and female thieves
constantly congregate to plan schemes for depredating on the
public. The haunts of such nefarious characters are known to the
rafts slicers, bet as the law stands at present, they have not suf.
