CLAPHAM PETTY SESSIONS.

Yesterday THOMAS Becxxa and BINJAMUI SMAW, &qrs. Ma-
gistrates for Surrey. held a Petty Sessions at Clapham, to hear
several informations laid against dealers in intermediate beer, by
George Bewley, under the Act of Parliament of the 9th Geo. IV.
cap. 61. sec. 18.
The first case was against James Webb. of Brummel's-row,
Clapham, for suffering beer to be drank on his premises.
The informer's witness stated that no the lot of September, he
went to the defendant's house, and asked for a half pint of inter-
mediate beer, for which be paid one penny : he drank it on the
premises.
The defendant in reply said, that the place where the witness
drank the beer was not on his premises ; it was a passage, and any
person had a right there.
Magistrate—And I suppose you have a right there?
Defendant—l have.
The Magistrates, after consulting, fined the defendant 101. and
15s. 6d. costs, this being a second conviction.
The next case was against Edward Simmons, of Acre-lane,
Clapham, for a similar offence.
The defendant, in reply to the charge, brought a witness who
stated that the Informer's witness bought the beer outside the pre
mises, and came inside to drink it.
The Magistrates said that made no difference, and it being a
second offence the defendant was fined 101. and costs.
George Young, of Waterloo-place, Clapham, was charged with
the same offence.
The Informer's witness stated that be was served with a half
plot of beer, for which he paid one penny, and he drank it on the
premises. There was a number of persons playing at pitch at the
mott.
The Magistrate said it was high time such nuisances were put
down. The Act of Parliament for selling intermediate beer was
never intended to convert houses into public-houses, but for persons
to bring their own mugs and carry the beer home to their families ;
but instead of that, if some check was not given to the system, it
would soon increase in such a manner that one-half of the places
would be turned into public-houses, and prove highly injurious to
the licensed victuallers, and greatly injure their business, and it
was the bounden duty of the Magistrates to protect them, as they
paid a large revenue to Government.
The defendant was then fined £lO. and 15s. 6d. costs.
The Magistrates cautioned the defendants against repeating the
offence, as they were determined to indict the full penalty of AT.o
the next conviction.

ARRESTING A DEAD BUDl.—Lately at the Mer-
thyr Petty Seulons. before J. J. Guest and J. B. Bruce, Esqrs.
the bailiffs of the Court of Requests obtained a summons against
time of the members of a Friendly Society, for an assault and
starve, in preventing the seizure of the body of Richard Ward, of
Dowleis, un its way to the church-yard. The Magistrates dis-
missed the complaint, and admonished the bailiffs to abstain Irons
such attest in future, reading to them the words of the late Load
Ellenborou‘h, that " to seize a dead body would be WOW'S lows
mores, and an extortion on the relatives ; it is contrary to every
prtncip.e of law and moral feeling, revolting to humanity, and
illegal." In justice to the clerk of the Court of Requests, it should
be added, that the intended arrest was without his privity.--a
