MAIL COACH IwvoßmATloms.—Y, stzr-day, Mr. Lawn,
who horses the mail coeds between Stroudwater and London,
appealed against a conviction of Mr. Marriott, the Magistrate, for
not having the word " London" upon the coach. It was contended
on the part of the appellant, that the Act was intended to apply only
to stage coaches and not to the mails. The mails were the property
of Government. and no alteration could be made in them without
the authority of the Post-Master-General. The Cuaranan, without
bearing the Respondent's Counsel I. reply, proceeded to affitm the
conviction. He considered the Acts of Parliament to be very clear.
and however inconvenient these enactments might be, he was booed
to enforce them. The convenience of office was not motes to ,
annul ad Act of Parliament. With the motive of the informenbe
had nothing to do, but must administer the law as he found it.—
Conviction accordingly effirmed.
There were,two other convictions against the sane appellant far
a similar offence on the 15th and 16th of February; one was abut-
' doned, and the other was quashed.
A conviction against Mr. Eames, of the Angel Inn, St. Ck-
merles, for running the Gloucester mail without the word Lou
don," was affirmed; as also was one against Mr. Horne, of Char-
ing Cross, for the same kind of offence, in respect of the Hob/-
Lead mail.

The informer only takes ten pound+ by thew convicting,. • aed
out of that he bas to pay his two Counsel and othee Wiow'
espenon.
